Ingram, was reinstated yesterday as
general guardian for their 12-year-old
daughter, Gloria.

Ingram as general guardian on petition

not filed an accounting of the proper
ties left to the child by her father for
1896.
In her answer the mother stated
that she and Gloria were residents of
Cannes, France. and that the child
owned no property in the United States.
After the liabilities and assets of the
property had been accounted for,
Fielding petitioned the court to vacate
the old order, which was done.

not care to discuss the matter.

ROCKY NECK STATE PARK
(Meriden Journal)

N
 Rock Neck is not exactly an at- tractive title for the states newest park inasmuch as 1t is a swimming branch and most bathers have an aversion to rocks. However, 1t is .a nice sandy beach, we are told. almost as good as Hamonassett, and we are further informed that 1t is in East Lmye and in the general vicinity of Giants Neck.
 It will be ready for service this summer. New Haven roads tracks have been fenced off to prevent ac- cidents and everyone will have to go to the beach by way of an un- derpass. There will be camp sites and every effort will be made to at- tract guests, including any overflow from the popular park at Madison.
 Tho states venture in the sea- shore park field has thus far proved highly successful, Hammon- assett has yielded an income that has helped to finance numerous inland parks that fail to attract crowds. Rocky Neck may simply cut down the attendance at the Madison resort and when and If Westport park Is esta blished,. 1t may only reduce the crowds at Madi- son. Thus the financial returns may be a bit disappointing hut there Is no doubt that people will be better served. and that seems to be the main idea in parks, and especially those fronting on Long Island sound.
 The state has gone heavily into parks, which is not so pleasing to

THE TOURIST INDUSTRY
(New Britain Herald)

(New Britain Herald)
 The value of the recreational industry to New England. 1t Is pointed out by no less an authority than Colonel William A. Barron of Crawford Notch, N. H., is $500,- 000,000 a year.
 At least, 1t once was worth that much. Whether it win be this year Is a question. This being so, special efforts are being made by the rec reational industry to "attract vis- itors" to New England. Booklets are being printed, and advertising indulged in. The tourists dollars are of ivtal importance to large districts in-thls tier of states. As we see 1t. one of the chief markets fin which to sell recrea- tion Is the New York district. Twelve million people there must go elsewhere for their vacations; meaning. of course, the proportion of this number who go vacationing. They have the choice Of going into New England or the choice of Long Island or New Jersey--excluding those with money enough to make more expensive trips.
 Long Island and New Jersey can be considered the most important, competitors of New England for recreationai dollars. New England has the bulge by being able to of fer a cooler climate. But New Jer-' sey has n beach development along practically its entire coast. But it's attractions are not as diverse as those of New England. Hence we imagine New Englanders will he able to hold their own.
 The 12 points. or suggestions. given municipalities catering to the tourist trade contain in No one that Is worth serious consideration by all vacation caterers. It Is as follows:
 No 6. Treat the visitor fairly. The oyercharged visitor not only never returns: he warns his friends to stay away.
 Unfortunately tho vacation visitor nearly always thinks he Is being overcharged.

Real Leader Lacking

It is quite clear from all that is going on in Washington these hectic days that the House of Representatives has at last lost the air of smugness it acquired in the last de- cade through the accompanying loss of dig nity upon the part of the Senate. Time was when the Senate of the United States stood for all that was good and holy in this eoun- try. It had plane about on level with the United States Supreme Court which manages to preserve its status untarnished through all the years Not so the Senate Since the World War it has come upon poorer days. We wouldn't say that it has lacked in talent because men of renown have arisen in their places there and orated as nobly and brilliantly as the luminaries of other years.
 The House became the hall of the elite through which strode the late Nicholas Longworth followed by train of persua- sive legislators whose tones were honeyed. whose gestures imperial. But Mir Long worth is dead and the House has fallen into error. It started with the present session which ranks with the notorious ones of his- tory. Not that the House has perpetrated anything upon this long suffering nation. We almost wish it had. But it is the Houses lack of action, its failure to get up steam and push through much-needed legis- lation that causes anxiety and sorrow. Some say it would have been different if Long, worth still was Speaker.
 With no disrespect for the present Speaker. John Nance Garner of Texas we simply state that he was flung into mael- strom when the democrats organized the House and made him the generalissimo He is capable legislator and an able parlia- mentaran but in the face of such eross-fire as the House has seldom seen no man could stand up and push through comprehensive program. If anything has hurt the presi dential or even vice presidential aspirations of the democratic Speaker it has been his failure to shine as the guiding star in the House of Representatives He has done well under the circumstances but he has made mistakes. We cant say he hasn't.
 Democratic control of the House means little or nothing with so small majority as the democrats can muster. And with the independent members of the House rallying strength from both major political parties it is hard to find where democratic or repub- lean policies begin or end. There is no desire anyway in the House to follow any leadership. That's why we don't believe as do many non- partisan thinkers that Long, worth could have produced harmony in this session. Longworth was backed by the dras- tic republican rules which limited debate and permitted the Speaker to do pretty much as he chose. Speaker Garner is faced with the liberalized democratic rules of the House and his troubles are many We might have secured legislation with Longworth but it would have been the eut-and dried kind with which we became so disgusted in the last few years. Perhaps after all this House revolt will result in something far better for the nation once the tumult has died down and our lawmakers realize what they must do to restore sanity and prosperity.

The Great Trail of Vermont is gradually lengthening out. When outing clubs started their hiking paths along the skyline of the Green Mountains they little realized what they had started. Today l.600 miles of an immense trail that stretches from Maine to Georgia via the Appalachian chain of moun- tains is open to hikers. And this long hike does not account for the hundreds of miles of side trails available. such as those in this state. The latest stretch completed was in Maryland. 39-mile trek over the Blue Ridge Mountains. It closed the gap be- tween Connecticut and the Pisgah National Forest on the North Carolina Tennessee border. Great credit for the opening of the Maryland link must go to the state forestry department and the Frederick Maryland. city forester. They interviewed hundrsds of property owners to make possible each ad- ditonal trail mile.
