Charity Or Dole?

In theory it is fine thing for com munity to take care of all its members in public way, out of taxes. In practice, pr- vate charity has its points. For one thing. private money can and does pour out gener- ously to meet an emergency. but when the emergency is past, it can stop. No precedent has been established which politicians can use as club.
 The present state of England is an ex- eellent example of how badly the public care of citizens can work. A large body of people has been living without work for a SO. The most serious fact IS that in this reached the proper age to work and take care dozen years and would like to go on doing body are thousands of young people who of themselves without having to work. They have established tenyear habit of being supported without working. They don't want to work and don't know how. hmerl- ca will feed its needy and unemployed. But America must watch its step pretty closely lest the just meeting of an emergency de- generate into an expected dole.

A Mayor Is Elected

That may sound like an extravagant statement. perhaps a little confident. How ever. the democratic primary of yesterday in which Mayor Frank Hayes was returned the victor by close to 10000 majority over former superintendent of streets William E. Kennedy strikes us as resembling an cleo ton more than an expression of party feel ing. We doubt if anybody in Waterbury truthfully predicted the overwhelming win that was the mayors at the polls. Certainly he had plenty of stauneh packers who pie dicted what were, in their opinion, large ma jorties. None of them went so far, though, as to wager that he would top his opponent by 10000 votes.
 Such clear cut victory can have but one meaning. It was direct population of both democratic factional efforts and also republican to discredit the Hayes adminlstra- tion in the eyes of the public. More than that, though. it was remarkably fine en- dorsement of Mayor Hayes and his admins tration of economy that he has been endeav- bring to give Waterbury. despite the busi- ness depression and the efforts of a certain clique. That the public IS plainly satisfied with the efforts that the administration has made and will continue to make IS clear. There was both democratic and republican endorsement in yesterdays primary.
 It wasn't so many years ago that B. 900 vote in Waterbury was all that could be brought out at an election. whether 1t was city. state or national. To secure that many votes at mere primary IS rather astonishing We might venture to say that the reason was two-fold. First there was the interest of the voters in the issues: seeond there was evidence of a mighty fine democratic organization working to assure the renomination of Mayor Hayes. It is patent that this organization will swing into action again in October with unlessened vigor and that to overcome those fifteen thousand votes Owelve thousand of them solid for Mayor Hayes) the republicans will have to perform actual miracles. Personally, we don't think they can do it, despite the fresh organization that is being drafted to make the test.

Liquor Control Favored

Representative William E. Hull of Peoria, Illinois, has furnished the American peoples with one more report on prohibition condl- tons in countries of Europe which he has visited this summer When Representative Hull left this country late in the spring he announced that he would from time to time report on his findings. To date they have been most interesting in that the congress man has not attempted to talk about any thing that he has not personally seen or dis eussed. His latest remarks bear quoting to some extent We haven't space for print of them all.
 'Of all the systems, he says, that l have thoroughly gone into and made study of. would prefer for America the Bratt liquor control law in Sweden am positive that we could, if our Constitution would permit it, establish the Bratt system, and that our people would obey the law. This could easily be done in our country. for we have voting precincts where the peo- pie are registered and liquor distributions could be made in the voting precincts. where the names of the people in the district are on record. As the Swedish system does not allow the holder of a motbok' to purchase in any other division than his mot bok calls for it makes it impossible to com init fraud or duplicate purchases
 The Bratt system of liquor control, of course. is the same as was suggested by one member of the Wckersham Commission. It isn't new to the United States in that 1t has been given consideration whenever there has been serious talk of amending the prohi- bition laws or repeating them outright However ardent drys are of the opinion that it would not work in this country as 1t does in Sweden. Maybe it wouldn't. but unless we get some sort of liquor control in the United States this is going to be sorry spectacle of nation in ten more years What with gangsters rapidly undermining the police forces of the nation it won't be long before beer barons will be holding sway in castles that will be impregnable, Let's do something about the mess that prohIbi- ton has cooked

FETCHING A FAIR TO A STAR.
(Hartford Courant)

(Hartford COuranl)
 Light from Arcturus, the bright est star visible in the Northern Hemisphere. will be used to throw the switch for the official opening of the science exhibits of Chicago's 1893 Worlds Fair. The starbeam after q journey of 240 trilion miles will fall at 9 p. m, June l, 1933 unless terrestial cloud inter fers--on the lenses of the Yerkes Observatory in Wisconsin and be focused on a tiny photo-electric cell, causing an eletric impulse which will be amplified and trans mitted to the exposition grounds. Chicago will then be the proud user of energy from aheayenly body far beyond the bounds or our solar heavenly body far beyond the first, 1t is claimed. literally to hitch
 The Fair officials seem to think the act particularly appropriate since the light which they will use started on its way forty years ago when Chicago was not the city or great wealth and population which 1t is today. The light has traveled at the rate of 186,000 miles q sec. ond and the city meantime has not been slow. But when Ralph Waldo Emerson used the figure of the wagon and the star, he was think. ing not of past achievement but of ambition. Even so Chicago's Fair. lighted by star energy. should not look backward only. It should envision the city of the future with light in every dark corner. ever, sangster's haunt and every pcver ty-strickep home.

Hartford is going in strong for the wei come-to the stranger idea. An official well come lady has been delegated to pay her re- speets to all newcomers. She will greet them and present them with letters of intro duction to merchants. laundrymen. coal deal CTS, milk and ice companies. bankers not to mention giving a quart of milk and two weeks subscription to local newspaper The idea is of course borrowed from south ern and western cities who go in for this thing on lavish scale. It's a nice thing for people who are coming to strange city and who are not quick at accustomlng them selves to the change in their lives. Most of us like to slip into grooves of living. And when we are rudely yanked out of them It takes us some time to become accimated. In the first month of operation in Hartford the welcome lady paid SC calls. And we'll bet she was welcomed with open arms wherever she went Waterbury might well follow up this idea, We have constant popua- ton here. but there are plenty of departures and arrivals also. It's rather nice to arrive in a strange town and find kindly figure to greet you and to answer the hundred and one questions that are immediately upper most in your mind.

Cheap Food

The federal Bureau of Labor has found that in 5l American cities food prices on June this year. were l9 per cent lower than they were l5 years ago. They are probably per cent lower now. But the figures bring more bitterness than pleasure. People generally speaking. are not able to take advantage of these low prices. They cannot stock up. They cannot buy any more than they have been buying, or so much That is why the prices are so low
 There is no use rubbing anything in De- presson need not be dwelt on except to make useful point. The point IS this It is our own fault that these prices are low and that we cannot take advantage of them There is not only plenty of food in the country. but there IS plenty of transpor- taton to lay it down where it is needed, and there are plenty of hands to do it. Yet 1t goes ungathercd. or rots in storage, in despite of millions who would eat it if they had it. The plight of this one industry represents all industry.
 A sort of ethargy seems to have come over the greatest business nation In the world, at the climax of its business progress with unrvaed facilities and materials. It falls down on distribution more than any thing else. Merely getting surplus stores within reach of the hungry might remedy al the same time the hunger and the forced idle ness of millions. Yet nothing happens Why?

Cooperative Employment

If the present unemployment situation lasts much longer, we may actually see few trials of an idea that has been suggested more than once. This is the voluntary association of economic groups to do CO., operatvely. for mutual benefit, some of the things they ordinarily do individually for wages paid by employers.
 The families of people out of work need many things. They need food, houses furniture. clothing, fuel. etc. Suppose groups of farmers. carpenters. plumbers. painters lumber workers. clothing workers, shoemskers etc. were to form sort of com bine. by which they would perform their special work for each other. every family in the organization giving its labor in return for the things it needed most. Basic needs would thus be supplied without exchange of money. . sn primitive community.
 It would probably be q difficult thing to manage. yet not impossible for idle and ln- .slliaent workers. There is already great

WHEN SPRINKLING KILLS
(IIartford Times)

ti1dEtLot0 iAhSS(
 The Bridgeport park superin- tendent has explained to various lawn owners why their grass has died despite their sprinkling it "al- most daily" They were mystifed and sought an explanation. He pointed out that grass does not like to die. If left to itself In dry weath- CT it will drive it's roots ever deep CT into the soil and will draw es- pecially upon it's deeper roots for moisture, thus building up capacity for resisting dry weather.
 But sprinkling coddles the lawn. The moisture applied to the upper surface stimulates only the super ficial roots and the grass is content to let it go at that, which might still keep the lawn green did not the sprinklers admi, that they hold the hose "almost" daily. An inter- val of drought only 6 few days too long may mean the whitening of the tenderly pampered turf which. having no dry-weather root organ ization in action, simply and quick ly gives up it's color and dies.
 The constructive side of this ad vice is clear. Either one must spray the lawns sufficiently, which means in ample quantity and at frequent intervals or not at all. Grass responds differently If hose fed than if made to find water for itself. The explanation sounds plausible and is probably based upon scientific analysis of the sit uation. It has a practical aspect from the point of view of water supply companies. In dry years unless they are able to provide enough water for unrestricted sprinkling, 1t may be wise to curl | 1t betimes. Half way measures appear to be q waste of water Tn not saving the green in the grass

A SHORTER DUCK SEASON
(Hartford Courant)


 President Hoover has acted dation of the department of agri- season for duck be curtailed throughout the country. Ordinar- fly lasting for two and one-ahlf months, the season was last year reduced to two months. This year 1t will last, in Connecticut. only from October l to october 31, in- elusive, and on Long Island from November 16 to December 15. The federal bag limit of fifteen ducks a day will remain unchanged.
 A shorter season will work little hardship on the hunters and should do much to preserve the ducks, which have suffered severe ly from the drought in their north ern breeding grounds. They will be fewer than ever this year, de- spite the short season of 1880, and an increase in their chances of get ting safely to their winter grounds will make for more birds and bet ter shooting in the future.
 The country has gone far since the days when the sun was llteral- ly plotted out along the Sound by the incredible fiocks of ducks fol- lowing the airway to the south. The elimination of many breeding grounds and the vast increase in the number of hunters have forced the government 10 take active measures flor the preservation of the game. The efforts were begin- ming to be successful and the ducks werei increasing in number until. two years ago, the drought wiped out many of the breeding marshes and nature did what the government had forbidden the hunters to do. Wise measures of conservation, adopted in time, might have saved the passenger pigeon, the health hen and the other once-numerous birds and animals now rare or extinct. It Is gratifying to see that the govern ment is interested in saving the duck from the fate of the others and it Is to be hoped that sports men as a group will recognize that the latest action will in the end be of direct benefit to them.

Prompt Justice

Three men ficndishly murdered two boys and two girls in Michigan, leaving as they supposed no traces by which the crime could be fastened on them. Within three days they were discovered and jailed. with a full confession obtained and apparently
 without the third degree brutality with which suspects are so often treated In this country. Score d notable victory for police!
 The same day those human friends were arralgned in court. protected by militia against surging mobs. In less than seven hours after the confession they were lodged behind the bars of the penitentiary, each under four sentences for the term of his natural life. which ought to hold them for a while, Score another notable victory for crime. There is no deterrent so powerful as the courtsl This is the way to discourage prompt punishment.
