Farmers Resist

Groups of farmers in the state of Iowa have recently been in conflict with the au- thorities of the state. over the enforcement of law for inoeulating cattle. About 500 embittered men marched on jail located at New London. and freed young man who was arrested in connection with these troubles Seventeen hundred guardsmen were previously mobilized .c enforce the law.
 The farmers of Iowa and other states have had many troubles. and they do not take kindly to additional regulation. How ever, the public is entitled to pure food. When diseases affect cattle and other food producing animals the best means known to science must be taken to prevent eontamina- ton from such sources. It is up to the state authorities to see that the people get this protection, but justice must be done to the agricultural population, which has seen prices of food products sink to the lowest point for many years.

More Motor Tragedies

There is no end to the terrible tale of au- tomobie tragedies. More than 24,000 per sons were killed in automobile accidents in the first nine months of l93l. October and November are bad months for accidents. ow- ing to short days and the skidding of cars on fallen leaves. The total for the year will be greater than ever before.
 The public is appealed to and implored, to be more careful in driving cars. but this appeal falls on many deaf ears. There are probably 10 to IS per cent of drivers who may fairly be called reckless, and there may be 30 per cent more who drive too fast or do other things open to criticism at times. It is hard to drive an automobile perfectly anyway, and most people will sometimes do something wrong with car.
 The frequency of automobile accidents is in a way the fault of the public. If it is proposed to subject drivers to severe regula- ticn. general protest goes up from auto mobile owners. They are freaful that if stringent rules are applied, they may lose their own licenses. If our people really want to stop the terrible record of accidents, they will have to assent more cheerfully to strict code of rules governing such driving. Means will have to be found to take away the licenses of many drivers who should not be on the road
 If the American people could have known in advance how many automobile tragedies there would be, they would have insisted that needless and incompetent people should never be allowed to drive car. But the sit uation has gotten away from them, and they have become hardened to these terrible trage- dies. Some day they will realize how great is the total of sorrow and financial loss thus caused. and will demand more effective pre- ventive measures.

The Senate's Duty

A former secretary of war says that the ''pitiless publicity which Theodore Roose- welt once used to make the trusts behave themselves should be applied to the United States Senate. That body. he insists, must end its years of ''dawling" and, serve notice on the world that this country will stand for no more war. It is not enough. though to tell the rest of the world to keep the peace. The world must be persuaded that we ourselves mean to keep the peace. It will not be convinced of our good intent, no mat ter how much peace talk we indulge in. if we do not take the lead in genuine disarma- ment plans and other cooperative peace measures.
 Particularly the world will distrust us as long as we fail in taking the first vital step toward peaceful cooperation = joining the World Court and thereby openly accepting our own principle of legal determination of international disputes as a substitute for mil itary force. That step is up to the Senate, as it has been for years. The nation has long been ready for it. Such action is par tieularly desirable just now. as major move to relieve the world from military and eco homie fear.

On November 30 the first fresh water system in the history of Bermuda will be put into operation. That may surprise a good many people. both those who have visited the island and those who haven't Of course. the vast majority of those now making the ocean voyage to Bermuda are quite unaware of the fact Their tastes. quite catholic, are generally not whetted by mere water. In fact. they probably have little recollection of being interested in water while enjoying the Bermuda beauties. However, there never has been fresh water on the island. Vessels must carry enough to last them one round trip when going to Bermuda It was long considered impossible to provide the island with fresh water but the task has finally been completed. Wells dug as deep as 400 feet in the past were of little value. as Der muda's subsurfaee is of coral structure with frequent pockets permitting salt water seep- age. However. the present well is above sea level and is concerted at the bottom to prevent such seepage. Fresh water that filters in through rock erevices. is collected in this basin. and ultimately pumped into reservoir near Hamilton. The systems capacity is 100000 gallons sufficient for 5000 people annually. So the next time you go to Ber- muda you can drink fresh water to your hearts content.

Not until 1860 will the Hall of Fame at New York University contain bust of Thomas Edison. pr Robert Johnson. director of the hall. said this week that he imagines when the 100 business and professional lead CTS vote in l960 for Edison's admission it will be unanimous. To date George Washing ton leads all. When he was elected to the Hall of Fame it was by e6 assenting votes. The reason that Edison will not be admitted to the Hall of Fame until 1860 is due to the fact that elections to it are held only every five years and man must be dead 25 years before he can be considered Therefore. it will be 1860 before Thomas A. Edison is eligible. There are only five inventors thus honored to date They are Jossph Henry. Robert Fulton. Samuel Morse. Eli Whitney
 and Elias Howe. And incidentally admis- sion of Robert Fulton has kept the directors of the Hall on uneasy street. There are

Put In Some Teeth

The Tri-State Anti-Pollution CommiS- sion is proposing a treaty to end pollution of all coastal waters. That will naturally include tidal rivers to a certain distance. o tbis end an interstate commission Of nine members appointed by the governors ot the three states involved will be formed. One- fifth of the work will be borne by Connee- ticut with New York and New Jersey split tino the remainder. We look for hearty cooperation from our Legislature when the matter is brought before 1t for consideration. In the meantime we are awaiting aodltionai provisions to the treaty which will enable the commission to proceed with its work and not merely to recommend 1t.
 In the case of the state water commission so far as we know it has no power to compel any city or town or even private corpor- ation to aid in eliminating pollution Of streams and ponds. It has done fairly well without any such powers. Numerous cities have acted upon the boards recommenda- tions, notably this city which was for years a notorious offender as regards river pollu- ton. We still are for that matter, but we have started costly project which, when completed, will eliminate pollution by sewage. Our trunk line sewers will lead dl- rectly to a disposal plant where sewage will be neutralized before being deposited in the river. ,
 Various forms of sanitary sewage dis posal systems have been installed in this state of late years. We may claim that this is due to the good work of the state water commission. However. 1t has but scratched the surface While cities and towns may offend, there never will be complete success in cleaning up our streams until industrial plants have pledged themselves to aid Tn this finht. Wastage from these plants do fully as much if not more damage to rivers with their acid deposits and the like. What has been accomplished along the lines of securing industrial cooperation in the fight against pollution has been mainly voluntary.
 In short time we will have force from within and force from without seeking to purify our waters. That Long Island Sound and its tidal rivers are in deplorable state has been known for several years. Health officers have warned of the eondi- ton of many of our popular shore resorts Waters surrounding these bathing beaches have become badly contaminated. Con- cerned with curbing this evil will be the Tri- State Anti-Pollution Commission. The state water commission will continue to those rivers and ponds within our boundaries that demand attention. But there never will be 100 per cent success until the proper author ities can penalize even entire cities or fac- tories for polluting waters. We believe the state will arrive at this point eventually. We know until the law has teeth it will require years to get anywhere.

Here's a record to be proud of. John Voorhis. l02, is finally retiring as president of the board of elections of New York city. He has spent 60 years in public office and it was with reluctance that he applied for retirement. The legislature recently passed enabling legislation at its special session. Of course, Mir Voorhis is also Grand Sachem of Tammany. He will give up this position also to become Great Grand Saehem. an hon. orary office that Tammany has only ac- corded to George Washington. Surely Mir Voorhis is the grand old man of New York. He is still active and in full possession of bis mental powers.

Not In The Race

Former Mayor Angelo M. Paonessa of New Britain has definitely informed his friends and political packers that he will not enter the mayoralty contest in his native city next spring. It has been rumored from time to time that New Britain democrats were hopeful of enlisting Mir Paonessa's aid in their efforts to return the city to democratic control. It is believed that the former mayor is the strongest vote getter that the party has in New Britain and that he would stand good chance of unseating the present incum- bent. Mayor George A. Quigley whom everyone expects to succeed himself. How ever Mr Paonessa's declaration seems to eliminate him from the race.
 Just at present he is member of Labor Commissioner Joseph M. Tones staff but we wouldn't be bit surprised to find Mir Paoncssa's name among those being proml- nently mentioned for place on the state ticket in 1932. His aspirations in this di- rection have been manifested for some time. Tn 1o30 he wanted to try for Congress against Colonel Clarence w. Seymour who had busted the republican incumbent. ex- representative, E. Hart Fenn. from the re- TuDliCdu uOniiHdtiOH. AioWeNSA' uSAhoSAesi~ leaders of the first congressional district be- lieved that Congressman Lonergan should make the run and nominated him. His vic- tory was as anticipated. Mir Paonessa was nominated for high sheriff of Hartford country. but was defeated.
 We wouldn't be bit surprised to find NIT Psonessa's name figuring prominently in pre-convention talk. It is well known that in certain democratic circles he is regarded as likely candidate for the office of secretary of state. now held by republican. Dr Will liam L. Higgins of Coventry. It may be re- <ziled that the former republican incumbent wa Judge Francis A. Palotti of Hartford. He was unanswered out of office when his term expired in 1929 during the Brainard so1it over the governorship. Italian voters fbrcurhout the state were excited over the ;nc;denf and from ali indications have not vef forrotten the incident.

the normal school graduate who finds herself on . Ion, slow waiting list if there Is no bar against mar hied women teachers. There is enough to be said for each side of the question so that the debate re- garding the married woman teacher is likely to continue.
 In Hartford. as we understand it, no married women teachers are being hired in either the high schools or in the elementary grades. Some of the districts. how ever, do not discharge teachers who later enter into marriage while other district committees make the welded state" disqualification for the woman teacher as does the board of education with reference to high school feminine faculty members. Many rural communities in this state employ resident wives and mothers. These become the backbone of the teaching staff as normal graduates usually seek pro- motion into city positions as fast as possible. The rural school Is for them a stepping stone. The most sensible hule probably is one adap- ted to local conditions. To deter mine what these are is the respon- sible and not always easy task of school administration.

DEER HUNTING.
(Hartford Courant)


 {, In. the Aroostook section section of Maine the open season on deer began an hour before sunrise on Satu- day and will close on Novem- Der 30. In the rest of the state, the open season begins on Novem- Der 1 and closes on December 5 We do not know whether the deer are cognizant of the difference In dates between the two sections; if they are they might increase their ex,' .tat.on of life by migration from Aroostook on October IT and return to 1t on November 30. How ever the ;. might be more severe, for at the most the hunters are limited to two kills.
 We shall follow reports of the open season with some curiosity, rot so much as. the numbmer of deer killed but. rather. the num- Der of hunters injured. The deer Is not exactly a ferocious animal. but an excited and nervous hunter Is something to be regarded with apprehension. Having no Ill will toward his fellow men and lacking in a desire to end his own life. he may kill himself or a fellow hunter through sheer nervousness. What he deems deer. may be a sports. man, but the hunter. too often first and investigates later. Or his rife n. " be discharged through no con scious effort on his part--and he dies. '.
 Tn the beginning of things man was forced to hunt or. starve and on many grim occasions he did both. Now for the most part of necessity for hunting has. disap- peared so far as this country Is concerned, but the urge to hunt. fostered through many milleniums. continues though the motive for 1t has disappeared. Man hunts and fishes as ever. but in the former sport he Is slow in cultivating wls- dom and each autumn brings It's tragedies which might be. but arc not. avoided. 94sf
