HOsT|L|T|Es CONTINUE AND TWO NEW BAT TILES
 APPEAR IN TIE DIPPING

TOKYO, Nov. 10. H)-BOoming guns and shifting soldiery in Man churia gave some promise that there will be two new battles one 1t the Nonni River bridge head and the other at TientSin.
 Although Tokyo reported the sit uation as quiet but apprehensive, reports in two London newspapers said that Japan demanded sur render at Tsitsihar by General Nah Chan Shun."
 The Chinese have requested the League of Nations send an inter national army of 4,000 men to po- lice the railway while settlement of the controversy is pending.
 The Japanese sent a reply to Washington to Stimson's "aid me- moire," but stated it was not for publication. Documentary inter change and Harbin dispatches said the Japanese had withdrawn to a few miles south of the Nonni River bridge but are assimiliating rein torcements. A new attack on Gen. eral Mah's army is expected

SEWARD BUSINESS MEN DISCUSS POSSIBILITY
 0F BUILDING HANGAR

Taking advantage of a time which is most opportune for the further ance of aviation in Alaska with Seward as the headquarters base for operations, group of Seward business men met last evening un- der the auspices of the Seward Chamber of Commerce in the of- fees of the Alaska Steamship Con- pany at the instance of the avia- tion committee, composed of Cal M. Brosius, John Blase and Charles Lechner, who have put in a great deal of time and effort to making the hangar a reality. The meeting was called for the purpose of laying their findings before the executive committee Of the Chamber and Seward business men and to dis cuss the problem which So far ap- pears to have kept Seward from it's due share of air business and traf- fic-the need for hangar facilities.
 It was made known that Pilot w. H. Barnhill, who with L. McGee, fur buyer, own Stinson Detr0iter Jr., four place monoplane, powered with a Lycoming, nine-cylnider, 215 hp. motor, had given the Seward Cham Der of Commerce aviationicommit- tee every assurance that they would make Seward their base headquar- terS for operations, provided that proper hangar facilities would be made available. It was also stated that it was the desire of Pilot Barn hill to make arrangements for the purchase of another plane of the same type as they now own if they could secure the financial backing.
 Hangar specifications, as outlined briefly at the meeting, would call for structure of about 50x30 with an added shed in back of it so that two planes could be housed should that need arise. One proposal made was that the hangar be built on a. framework with a corrugated iron covering No inside finish would be needed at first. The approxi- mate figure given as to the cost of erection was about $3,000, but it was thought by some that this fig ure might perhaps be lowered some what but this all will depend on the decision as to final specified tions. The hangar is to be built on a plan which will provide for future expansion in case more planes need to be housed
 Seward and area would benefit greatly from the passing of plane here and it would also aid the bus mess men and residents of Alaska who live in far flung places, or places where travel is at present beset with avoidable delays. It is pointed out that a miner, rancher, or other business man could hop in a plane stationed in Seward and be whisked away to his destination in a few hours time, whereas, as is the case at present, he comes to Seward via boat and makes con- nections with other travel agencies to reach the plane base and from there be taken to his destination.
 The location of the proposed han gar was also touched upon and it was the general opinion of those assembled at the meeting that it should be constructed near the roadway and on the west side of the Seward aviation field This location, it was said, besides serv- ing planes landing on the field it.

 The grant of an additional repre- sentative to Connecticut arises not TsfroIn, any need for his services but because the federal constitution pro- vides for the Reorganization of the house of representatives after each decennial census. No one would ever have thought of the need of an ad : ditiOnal representative or con- stenplated it with any emotion what ever, had not the law created him quite accidentally. we might say, AS it is, the principle of population up on which the grant is made offers no reasonable guarantee of our. en- joyment of his presence longer than the period between now and the taking of the next census: It iss quite within. the possibilities, if not prob abilities, that by the time the next census is taken, Connecticut will be forced back to its i've It would seem, therefore, more intelligent to avoid the redistricting of the state at this time since 1t would serve no practical purpose. ..yig

The Woodcock Commission

Having read what paid commission could do in ascertaining thes true facts about prohl- bition in the United States Director Amos w. w. Woodcock IS anxious to see what body of men working for purely patriotic reasons will do with the same question. Hence his proposal that commission of ten university professors take the matter under consideration and report back at the end of a reasonable length of time. Of course this report will at- tract as much attention and secure as much action as did the Wickersham report. Yes 1t will not.
 We don't know what Mir Woodeoek is at- tempting to do but if he hoped to convince nation that what ten university professors think about prohibition is sufficient weight to continue this foolish experment he is poor interpreter of public opinion. Of course this commission could turn in a strictly dry report that would meet with the approval of President Hoover and other dry officials. That would enable them to make pretty speeches in which we would be told just where our duty lies and what we should do to make this bet ter country in which to live.
 Dr Charles Gray Shaw, Professor of Philos- 2 ophy at New York University. went into rage over the Woodcock proposal. He re- marked that Why Woodeock commission when we have just had an elaborate and ex- pensive Wickersham commission? The chief difference between the two is that the first cost half million dollars while this one will cost nothing and will be worth it. The members of the new commission have taken the right first step, however. which is in the direction of the .photographers for several of them have had their pictures taken for the papers. The professors who make up the com mission of ten should and doubtless do. real ize that the wet and dry question is out of their field and that the study of it docs not belong to the vocation of the scholar. :. What the question of prohibition needs is not somebody in cap and gown. but somebody else in uniform and helmet. ,. ...'
 Mir Woodeoekstis anxious to be the first director of prohibition who has accomplished any real reforms. Perhaps since transferring the work of enforcement from the Treasury sto the Justice Department bonuses are in or der for so many hits per annum. If so the directors zeal is to be commended. But not his foresight.

Warn, Walls

Scientists in one of the big research labor atories arc working on new method of heat ing room. It is warm skin which lines the walls and ceiling and which contains electric heating clements. The individual scales or sections forming the skin initiate ordinary wall and ceiling materials and can be covered with them. All the artificial heat furnished the room will come from this lin- ing. The entire surface may be warmed at once. or any desired section of it. The walls will not glow and will feel barely warm to the touch. They will radiate mild tempera- ture almost exactly equal to the normal body temperature.
 The experimental room at the laboratory is to be tested with cool air to learn whether the heat radiated by the human body in all directions can be conserved and made to com bine with the artificial heat. effecting saving in fuel. The idea is that bodily heat is usu- ally lost by being absorbed in cool walls. Mildly warmed walls will absolve less;'of the body heat and may produce an observable difference in physical comfort. At least. that is what the scientists are trying to discover. While they're about it, why don't they include the floor in the experiment.?

Referendum Assured

While Waterbury won't get chance to
 vote on the city manager plan for few years,
 zt least the citizens of this city and the state s are assured of referendum on the prohibition < question. probably. in conjunction with the state and national elections in November.
 1852. Favorable action of the legislative committee ion federal relations this week upon ! the. measure of Representative Raymond E. Baldwin. republican. of Stratford would in- < dicate that both the House and Senate will pass the bill 7 It is believed that the other prohibition bills that were referred to the above committee will be dropped in favorso of the Baldwin measure and whole-hearted sup port given it. '%'
 It is safe to predict that the Senate will uphold the favorable report of the federal relations committee. If there is any sus- { fained objection it will come in the House. but proponents of the proposed referendum a are sure that there are enough House votes $ to secure passage of the bill Governor Cross will certainly not veto the bill, as his views on the prohibition question are decidedly wet. although the governor is not to be ranked as wet in his habits. With success in view for anti-pfohibitionists it is not up to them to inquire of what origin is the bill calling for referendum. Suffice it that the state can. have the opportunity to express itself publicly on this all important issue
 < To be sure there was merit in the three Z bills of Minority Leader Citronswhich are still before the federal relations committee. That they are of democratic origin should not have influenced the committee one way or the other. It is not for the average citizen to inquire xt.~ Il, him to have his say about prohibition. It IS for him to appear at the polls and to cast his ballot one way or the other. The Baldwin bill provides that the General Assembly peti- tion Congress stol submit to the several states an amendment to the Constitution providing for the return of the power of regulating or psohibiting the sale, manufacture or transpor- tation of intoxicating liquors to the several states.
 Gradually the, nation is coming to the sup port of such an opinion Most of us now agree that federal control must be sypplantsd hY state contfof with Uncle Sam as the watehs dog of interstate traffic in liquor just as he is in other manufactured goods. Upon such a front only can united stand be made. It is high time that the various agencies fighting against prohibition in the United States real ized that and ssprsbined their, forces. Under such system temperance could be practiced far more successfully than it is today under total prohibition Connecticut should not balk at the opportunity of showing how it stands on prohibition. We failed to ratify the 18th amendment because we abhor federal encroaehment upon states rights. Why not back up that. yiewpont3
