when Waterbury lawyers return from their varied and lengthy vacations to active practice of the law they will be quite surprised in finding the common pleas court clerks office completely changed. The principal renovation Is the in- rfallation of a counter just inside the door reaching across the en- tire office and preventing access to the office without consent of the clerk
 In former years the common pleas court acted as meeting place for local lawyers, simply be- cause there was no other room In the court house for lawyers 10 carry on social and private dis cussions.

Duffy and that he has been elected to the board of studies, the committee on publications and the committee on circles and library.
 Dr Donovan sent some very inc teresting notes on the work of the school in Cliff Haven, N., F.. to the Catholic Transcript which ap- pears in this weeks edition.
 He writes, T found as l. ex- pected, that owing to the depres- sion the, attendance was note quite as good as in former years. Yet the school was in a. fiourishing con- dition and the postgraduate and extension work was enthusiastically going on under the auspices of Fordham university, which kept up classes from July to August 6. Fordham had here, under the supervision of Father Hogan, .thir- teen teachers conducting classes. ,;
 Simultaneously with this pros gram of classroom work, there was as learned and enlightened a sched- ule of lectures as you could find in any educational center in America. The Right Rev John J. Finn, S.T.L., of Chatham, N. Y, delivered a series of five lectures on Recent Tendencies in Psychology which covered the entire field of the sub- feet, both ancient and modern.
 'One of the phases of the work here which most enjoyed was the course of lectures delivered by the Rev Joseph M. Dougherty. o.S.A. Ph.D., professor of Bacteriology and Immunology of Villa Nova college, based on the work of the great Augustinian, Father Gregoi Mendel. aa ~
 During the third week of the summer school there was given g course of five lectures by Patrick J.. Lennox, Litt.D., dean Of the School of Letters of the Cathode University of America, on Some ElgnteenLu century 11cueHHo"OhS fish Writers
 "In the literary field, also. the lectures on poetry by Katherine Bregy, Litt.D., were very enjoyable Miss Gregy last June was honored by Holy Cross with the degree oi Litt.D, and is a poet herself. a fine critic and a prose writer of orig inal power.
 ..'It may be both ungracious and presumptuous for me, a newcomer in Catholic Summer school work to say so, but it is my deliberate judgment that of all the teachers and lecturers who have appeared in Cliff Haven this season the two who stand out most distinctly in sheer intellectual eminence are the Rev Francis Burke, S.J., associate professor of Philosophy at George. town. university. and George \ ShusterH, managing editor. of The Commonweal and professor o1 English at St. Joseph's college Brooklyn, N.

The New Park

An estimated attendance of 5000 at the opening
OF Coleman park on the west side is indicative of
The demand of the people for innocent recreation
The park is not the biggest nor the finest of the
city parks. But it is playground. In it the young
VIII find spot for pleasure There the older will
ind release from the ordinary cares of life and its
worries.
1t is time that the leadership in this city recognizes
that the need for recreation is as basic as the need
for food
In times of wide unemployment the need is en-
phasized When jobs plentiful amusement can
be purchased. 1t is less necessary when people are
busy
But the man and woman out of work and with
nothing to occupy their minds but worry are sunk
10 forget them is not even wise Thinking on their
part might produce many unpleasant results
The new park only emphasizes the interest in such
projects. What is needed now is play bow as
leader some one who knows how to organize people
Tor fun to show them how to get their minds awav
from themselves.
The man or woman who can invent some neu,
forms of innocent amusement which can be had
without cost will deserve monument quite as high
rs that of a soldier who wins war PERHAPS it
should be trfle higher

No More Pretense

No longer is there any pretense on the part Of
officials OF building and loan companies that the
Home Loan Bank will help any borrower who has lost
his Job and can not pay his usual installments.
Down at French Lick where officers of all the loan
companies banqueting Senator Watson a great
benefactor to their companies, of the leaders
openly declares IF fellow is out of job and thinks
that he be carried without paying, he is mis-
taken"
In other words all the citizens who in any
danger Of losing their homes because of unemploy-
ment, about whom Senator Watson drew so pathetic
picture, will be in exactly the spot they were be-
fore
The measure will be of benefit to the associations
in keeping their finances in liquid form per-
hitting them to take of Withdrawals But it
is now admitted that it can do nothing for the man
who has lost his job whose wages have been
cut to the point where he can not pay.
That is the real probem-some way to get men
back to work at wages that will permit them to buy
homes
There can be no solution of the building or any
other problem until the purchasing power of the
twelve millions of jobless men and women is restored
to high levels
That can only be done by a distribution of wages
and wealth on a level that permits the wide use
of luxuries.
Trying to trim this country down to the produc-
ton Of absolute necessities will only produce another
China.

interest on capital s5s7. and probably this year

interest capital was $597 and probably this wear
it is 5000 less than that.
Industrial productivity has trebled in the last
twenty years and barns and warehouses are almost
bursting with surplus goods yet this winter the hand
OF charity must feed 25OOOOOO people, or one-ffth
Of our population
Between 1923 and 1929 the value of American
manufactured goods $4,000 100000 yet in those
six years the total wages in manufacturing industries
rose only $6O00OO0OO and in four of these years the
wage actually was lower than in 1928
Inventions, designed to lift burdens from mems
backs, have wiped out whole crafts like the cigar
makers glass blowers. switchmen, and Others and
thrown them to the streets and into the breadnes
Between 1919 and 1929, inventions added 1880 600
horse power to manufacturing plants; and they added
millions OF wage earners to the breadlnes
Since 1921, coal miners daily per capita output
of coal has been increased by inventions from AZ
to SOC tons, increase of 20 per cent yet in the
coal fields hunger and desperation have become a
national menace
We have seized dominion over the air. the sea and
the land yet our airplanes, subs" and tanks are
being built chiefly for killing and war making Is
there security in the knowledge that poison gas and
Big Berthas supplant swords and fintlocks?
The radio in place Of the pony express brings the
world into our parlors only to have it tuned in on
crooners wall, or claptrap political speech. I'm

The new psychology of Freud, Jung and Adler
teaches that what happens to children determines
men; yet 100000 boys wandering Ishmaels with
out home job, 100000 children toll for wages,
millions more being stunted by insufficient food,
play space, or home
More than 100000 highly trained experts are
fighting disease and adding years to mems lives; yet
society sends its aged poor to poorhouses, fails to
provide decent homes for 100000 families allows
100 babies out of every 1000 born in some commun-
tiles to die before they reach year of age.
The trouble, of course, is in failure to grasp
and apply the great neglected science of economics
We have spent practically all our energies in produc-
ton, hardly any in distribution
The next Century of Science must be devoted
to this

Electric Shock Effects Are Peculiar

Some people are unduly sensitive
to electricity, while others sustain
fairly large shocks without much
trouble.
Apparently this is not a matter
of body build, but of constitution.
People with habitually greasy skins
are more susceptible than others;
also elderly people and those who
are alcoholic and those who have
exophthalmic goiter.
In exophthalmic goiter, it has
been established that there is a
diminished skin resistance to cleo
trical currents.
People who apparently are dead
from electrical shock may be re-
Suscitated by use of prolonged
artificial respiration.
This may be done by the manual
method. 1t is also of service to give
inhalationS of carbon dioxide, which
stimulate breathing.
1t is useless to pummel, slap,
punch, or otherwise attempt to
stimulate the person unconscious
from electrical shock.

Science for What?

Next spring Chicago win celebrate Century
of Science A captured ray of light that started
on its way earthward from the star Arcturas forty
years ago will be multiplied millonfold and used
to light the exposition.
Millions will stand amazed at what Americans
in 100 short years have wrought in conquering time
and space Others will wonder that with all their
ceverness they have done so little to make their
nation a happier. more secure, and more beautiful
place to live.
The man with the hoe has become the ffty-horse
power farmer; yet the net income of the average
American farmer in $780, including his wage and
