Pollution Dangers

General Sanford H. Wadhams, director of the state water commission, painted dis couraging picture of pollution evils in this state in New Haven this week. Addressing the annual meeting of the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers he stressed the fact that some day communities may be forced to draw upon water sources that are now being con- taminated with domestic and industrial wastes In this event. said the speaker. 1t IS high time that the state did something to avert pollution evils such as are now so prevalent
 We were interested in that portion of the speech which dealt with abuses by industrial plants. It should be enlightening to many people to know that shops are only responsi- ble for about IS per cent of the volume of pollution. while cities account for the remain ing 85 by dumping raw sewage directly into flowing streams or ponds. In industrial areas such as Connecticut the proportion would probably be 75 and 25 per cent said the speaker. Inasmuch as practically every com munity in Connecticut is contemplating some form of sewage treatment or IS actually en- gagged in providing this we are anxious to learn what action the state water commission is taking with regard to our many factories.
 We know what Waterbury is doing in the matter. It has practically completed man. moth trunk line sewer up the bed of the Naugatuck river. To this will be linked eventually all lateral outlets. A second trunk line will be built up the Mad river to care for laterals in the southern and eastern sections of the city. When this job is completed the city will construct a sewage plant in the south end of the town. Either that or avail itself of the partially completed plant that is now listed among the citys white elephants. It is an undertaking involving millions, but when completed the city will be able to say to the state that it has contributed its bit towards cleaning up our streams.
 Other cities are following Waterbury exam pie if they haven't already done so, The state water commission manages to convince most city or town authorities that they must cooperate to the fullest extent even though the undertaking is expensive. The state water commission is now preparing for future legislative action bill that will give cities and towns more leeway in securing money to finance such gigantic projects as pollution elimination involves. It may mean increased borrowing power for municipalities. but it will be limited to sewer and sewage treatment expansion solely. But while cities and towns are laboring to restore the pristine glory of our streams and lakes we should like to hear that industry has also collabofated to It's fullest extent To date we have heard of few factories installing waste treatment systems but we know of many cities spending lavishly for the same end.

New Way To Fight Communism

The Fish report on Communism was almost as contradictory as the Wickersham report on prohibition. It found there were only l2,O0O members of the Communist party in the United States, and yet registered terror at what that handful of reds might do to the other 123,000,000 of us. On one point. however, this report seems quite clear The committee declares that "the surest and most effective way of combating Commun- ism in the United States is to give the fullest possible publicity to the fundamental princi- pes and aims of the Communists.
 If this proposal takes our breath away. just stop and give it little calm thought. Boost the Communists game for them? Play into their hands by spreading their propaganda? We'll, remember this is Amer ica. Americans are committed to system of eapitalistie democracy and individual enter prise. Americans are intelligent. Commun- ism in theory. and at distance. may be romantic. Bring it nearer, the committee suggests, for closeup inspection. Tell any doubtful American exactly what Russian Com- munism stands for, what it is doing, how men and women are expected to live under it. and see if that doesn't confirm his American faith

Bonus Bill Passed

The bonus bill is passed. but not yet ef- feetive. It now goes to the president. but will never get his signature if we are to believe all the news that comes from the White House It will be vetoed outright no pocket veto for Hoover. Which simply means that President Hoover will doubtless have the bill waiting for the house of representatives when it comes to order Monday. It is safe to pre- dict its passage over the presidential veto on the basis of the record votes by which the house and the senate only yesterday. passed the bill. A two-thirds vote will be easy to muster.
 It's hard to take definite stand for or against this measure. There are good and bad aspects on each side. Nobody will deny but what there are many veterans in the na- ton sadly in need of the money they will be able to borrow upon their certificates. But on the other hand is the amount that they can borrow sufficient unto the day. When we read that the highest policy is merely for 1,600 and the average IS nearer Sl.OOO we realize that veterans applying for loans will be getting $500 or less. Few will bother to pay the four and one-half per cent interest so the time the certificates mature in 1945 there will be paltry few dollars coming to the insured. Should he die in the interim, of course. the value of the certificate is lessened by the outstanding loan.
 We can understand the eonsternaton of Seere- tary of the Treasury Mellon at having to pay out at this time billions of dollars. In the midst of depression. such as we are now ex- perieneng Uncle Sam must lead the way in economy. A raid on the treasury such as the bonus loans will mean certainly won't be of much aid. Still the nation is being urged to spend money. Prices are supposed to be lower than ever. However. you can't buy without money or credit. And credit is just about strained to the bursting point. Business men are carrying as many accounts on their books now as they possibly can. Therefore. if . billion dollars more or less is put into immediate circulation it ought to do some good in relieving the depression. For 1t eer- tainly will go into circulation.
 Perhaps the bonus bill is raid on the treasury. Perhaps it does upset Uncle Sam's plans of eeonomizing in order to lessen rising tax burdens. Perhaps it will lead to de- mand for earlier maturity of the veterans adjusted certificates. But certainly nobody can deny that the whole nation hasn't been elamoring for people to spend money. Give them the money to spend and they will do so But while money is scarce they are apt to hold tight to what little they have. trust ing more in savings accounts than in quick returns on stocks. The nation is between the devil and the deep blue sea-

Less Severe Winters

Yale University has recently made public letter written by Benjamin Franklin which shows that as much as l68 years ago it was the common opinion" that winters were be- coming less severe. It certainly is common opinion" these days. But the joke is on us. as it was on the people of Franklin's day. The Weather Bureau, which deals in facts and unemotional statistics. asserts repeatedly that there has been no change in winters since records have been kept. Of course, one win ter may be milder than normal. as another may be more severe. As for any steady trend toward milder winters. it doesn't exist
 Probably the persons who believe the milder winter fiction are mostly city people. In our big cities these days even when there is good snowfall. it is not allowed to lie in the streets. Up-to-date machinery and hun dreds of men are set to work to remove it as fast as possible. City pavements themselves hasten the melting of snow. Homes, stores. and other buildings are all heated in way to make their occupants forgetful of the weather. No snowfall outside the tales of Baron Mun- ehausen ever was deep enough to bury sky scraper. It is pleasant to believe that winters are growing milder. The Weather Bureau is honest. but hardly kind, to disabuse us of this agreeable myth.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-02-20

A new cause for for.t fires in Connecticut has been found. We never noticed in any of State Forester Hawes' reports that men, ton was made of peters, but the term was used at hearing before the legislative com- mittee on state parks and reservations in Hart ford this week. The bill in question gives the governor the power to close the woods during dry seasons, just as now the chief executive can end the hunting or fishing sea- sons should drought conditions prevail. It developed at the Hartford hearing that great many forest fires are now caused by lighted matches and cigarette stubs thrown from parked automobiles in wooded areas. Pet ters' seeking the back woods roads are to blame for these conflagrations was the contention of West Hartford man. If that's so then some one of these days we'll be reading about cars burning up with the occupants. We don't doubt but what peters are to blame for some of many forest fires, but more of them are caused by careless smokers who tramp through the woods or who hurl burning brands from their speeding automobiles to soulder by the wayside and finally burst into flame. We really think that such acts should be considered misdemeanor punishable by fine.

Build Now

have been since 1917. The cost of building a house is said to be 20 per cent less today. in most sections, than it was a yeer ago. and about one-third less than it was 10 years ago. Many city. and many private citizen. is surprised. on receiving contractors bid. to find how much less it is than the original estimate.
 This is an exceptionally good time to build not only because it is cheaper than it has beer for some years. and probably cheaper than it will be for years to come, but Because people need work; Because building is key industry. stimulating dozen other important indus tries: Because it is possible to borrow con- struetion money cheaper now.

SMUGGLED VEGETABLES

.
 Professional viewers with alarm may find occasion for donning their fright wigs and writing letters to the editor in the dispatches from To- ronto in which the general secretary of the Canadian Horticultural asso- ciation is quoted as charging that United States farmers are nightly en- gagged in smuggling vast quantities or green vegetables into Canada.
 This, obviously, is the long sought reply to the musing of Omar In the Rubaiyat:
 T. often wonder what the winners one half So precious as the stun they
 sell"
 The Canadians buy vegetables.
 The public has long been familiar with the picture, So viyidly outlined by Edward Dean Sullivan and our other experts in crime and illicit en- terprise, of the liquor smuggler roaring from Rouse's Point through Essex county at the dark of the moon, accelerator to floor his Thompson gun and smoke bombs at hand for any emergency.
 Now we have the picture of huge trucks loaded to capacity with rare old Teachers Highland parsnips and old Orkney mangle beets, and per haps, here and there caleN of fine vintage broccoli or magnum of stewed corn, rushing through the night on back roads and hidden by- ways in a dash for the rich Canadian market. Of course good deal of this smuggled matter is cut before 1t reaches the ultimate consumer. and 1t. is Il lucky householder in Montreal or Three Rivers who can offer his dinner guests the genuine article in sAroonstock county potatOes or Bos- ton margef celery.
