Grooves For Autos

The new automobile deck on one of New York city's bridges has grooves in which the wheels of motor cars must run. The purpose is to keep drivers from weaving in and out of traffic lanes, source of many accidents and driving problems in New York as in other American cities. A car cannot turn out of its grooved lane to go around the car ahead. The grooves begin on the long approaches to the bridge and carry all the way across.
 Something like this may have to be adopted generally in areas of traffic congestion. Lines painted on streets in such sections were sup posed to indicate specific lanes for different types of traffic - fast, slow. through, and so on. But the system didn't work. because motorists refused to stay in the lanes in which they belonged Slow drivers aIfishly got into the fast lanes and fast drivers began weaving in and out of every available lane in order to get ahead.
 It wouldn't do to have grooves on all the highways. But at strategic points they might help to solve serious problem. And then any motorist in line who held up the rest by going too slowly or by stalling or stopping should be penalized severely, for he'd cause more trouble than ever.

Benevolent Tyranny"

According to Chief Justice William M. Maltbie of the Supreme Court It IS true that we have something which has the stigma of rotten borough system in the choice Of members of the Legislature; 1t IS true that the dominant political party has somewhat the aspects of benevolent tyranny. But we have little or no political corruption or chi canery - That is an excerpt from the address given by the Chief Justice to visiting librarians at the annual convention in New Haven last week. Other than this brief refer ence to some slight evidences of political con- trol the Chief Justice found Connecticut as delightfully."- colonial and refreshing as do most of us who have a true regard for our home state.
 There is no doubt about the Connecticut cities and towns being typical examples of the classic New England village. When Gl- bert K. Chesterton was leaving this country Tn the spring he mentioned the fact that the United States had deploring dearth ot charming villages Metropolitan scrlbblers picking up his remarks pointed out that Chesterton had not seen all of the country and mentioned as examples of the charming villages to which he referred, Litehheld, Lyme. and Pomfret in our own state. We think that Chesterton's viewpoint was that our towns have not yet had chance to mel low as have old Englands Towns two centuries old in the United States are mere infants to some of Englands To us they may seem antiquated.
 However we rather liked the way Chief Justice Maltbie recalled to his listeners the fact that at times there has been mention Of political control of our government that hasn't been for the best interests. A benevo- lent tyranny is as good way of calling 1t zs any other The mode of expression IS so delightfully."- naive that it IS refreshing. MT Rorabaek and his associates can well afford to look for halo above their brows, not that we think Chief Justice Maltbie wished to crown them. That was the last thing In his mind He was not concerned with making excuses for political machine, let alone dls- eussing its shortcomings or good points.
 The wonder of 1t is that Connecticut has preserved the charm and simplicity of which the chief justice spoke at length in hs dis course It is tribute to the citizens ot Con- necticut that they have persisted in strain of individuality that even dominant poli- tical machine cannot form into rubber stamps. As for republican benevolenee 1t be- gins at home according to Mir Roraback. Perhaps we have regarded this benevolence in quite different aspect from time to time. Certainly it has been directed only one way. Perhaps the dear old gentleman from Yale can make this benevolenee extend both ways.

Tie Your Little Bull Outside

Judging from the remarks that high public officials are passing back and forth ot late this is repidly becoming nation of satirists. Henry P. Fletcher started 1t with his retort supreme to Charles E. Dawess comment upon a diplomats life. Ambassador Dawes stated that diplomats life was easy on the brain but hell on the feet" Mir Fletcher, who formerly represented Uncle Sam in Italy and who now presides over the highly important tariff board, answered with rare wit that it all depends whether you use your head or your feet. As yet Mir Dawes has not found the proper answer
 However. Postmaster General Brown and Mayor Curley of Boston are now occupying the publics attention in a verbal scrap that should bring forth some bright and witty remarks. unless either of the combatants decide to call it quits. It all started with Bostons new federal building in downtown Boston, The site was picked and work actually start ed. However, Bostonians started fight over the stone that was to be used for the new postoffice. The specifications called for limestone. Why not granite from nearby Quincy, said the descendants of the Cabots!
 They communicated the desire to patronize the home state industries to their congress men. Their congressman communicated with the Postoffice Department. As result work on the new building has stopped completely and men who might be employed are among the army of those who now cultivate the backyard garden in lieu of more strenuous pursuits. Mayor Curley found this situation upon returning from a European rtp. He straightway posted tart letter to Postmaster General Brown in which he faeetiously sug- gested pasturing COW in Boston's S6. l46,6oo postoffiee site. He said it would be fine Fourth of July attraction.
 This 90 stirred the wrath of Mir Brown that he devoted eight long paragraphs to the job of answering the mayor. They reeited in detail the reasons why the building was de- layed. The eighth was the gem. the piece ds-resistanee. of the epistle. Listen to this Referring to your desire to pasture your municipal cow on the postoffiee site, it is my opinion that the department should not be required to do more than put up with your bull" It looks M if the mayor would have to tie his little COW outside.

Great Minds Need Sleep

In an article in American Medicine, Don aid A. Laird of the Colgate psychological lab- oratory reports that 50o distinguished men questioned on the subject have good sleep habits. That is, they average or hours sleep night. No one reported less than five hours sleep as regular occurrence. or more than eight.
 The 50o distinguished men included gov- ernors. writers. generals, playwrights. doctors, college presidents, judges, publicists, and one orchestra conductor. The findings seem to show that the familiar theory that great think CTS and geniuses get along with less sleep than other people is one of those fallaeies which have risen from few notable exceptions. A reasonable amount of sleep, it appears. is es- sential to men and women doing important work requiring clear and active minds.
 There is an obvious conclusion. Sleep IS just as essential to lesser mortals. No one, even in humble calling. does his best work unless he gets enough sleep to start the new day rested and fresh.

of being confined to few days or weeks seat- tered over period of two or three months. Inhabitants in those warmer climates become accustomed to the weather and adapt their living to it. Physicians in our own commun- ities tell us how to make the extreme heat spells endurable. Now is good time to take their advice
 They tell us to use iced drinks moderately. to eat more fruit and green vegetables and less sweet stuff and fats. They tell us to drink plenty of water. to take normal exer- else out in the sunshine. to get plenty of sleep though that last one is little difficult on hot sultry night They tell us to wear loose, thin clothing In addition to all the advice about physical health and comfort the doctors tell us not to worry. This includes not talking too much about the heat. It is we'll to keep your temper these days. too. Re- member the other fellow is just as uncomfort- able as you are.

DAILY WASHINGTON LETTER
A Digest of Who's Who and What's What
 By RODNEY BUTCHER

Washington.-Pres Herbert Hoover, once press-agented as "the great Humanitarian" is now being put forward to the country as a human being.
 There have been opposite views about the Hoover personality. One held him to be a cold, unsympa- thetic, fish-like and short-tem- pered individual whose emotions were aroused only by statistics. criticisms or thoughts of Q second term. The other pictured him as a warm hearted lover of children, dumb animals and his fellow man; a red-blooded devotee of | fishing and the outdoor life; a charming comrade among his | friends and, above all, quiet and modest superman who worked sympatheticaly and ceaselessly in the interests of his countrymen during a period of suffering and depression.
 | Knowing the "RcaP' Hoover | Next year MT Hoover comes ur for renomination and reelection and it is very obviously good politics for his friends and sup 1 porters to promote that second | conception of Hoover among the voters and eradicate the first Hence, very definite attempt was begun a few months ago to "hu' manize Hoover" and dramatic his personality on the theory tha' it was only fair all around thai the people should be allowed tt know the "real Hoover"
 Hoover himself has always I nti as "baby- kissing" and to letting the public, in on details of his private life. His friends say he has hereto fore refused to allow himself to b. dramatized according to the accept ed fashions of political bunkum But he has .relented. That's why the newspapers have lately carried so many pleasing little human in- terest" items about the president and his family. The Harding Tribute
 Hoover's tribute to Harding his former chief. at Marion o. contained more evidences of per sonal emotion than any other speech he has made. It's warmth largely dispeiled the ill-feelinE and embarrassment caused by the fact that the Harding Memorial had gone several years undedi' cated.
 l Hoover now makes a deliberate effort to contact pleasantly witt people. He is careful to smile fol photographs-he wasn't always SC careful. At the recent big republi' can dinner in Indiana he very hu' manly invited everyone to remove their coats. And while his train wa: en route during his speaking, toul he and Mrs Hoover meticulously ap peared on the rear platform wher ever a group waited and the presi dent had impromptu words for all
