Fashion Has Gone Military For
Spring Styles; Shoulders Broad

also good and some bright colors are
shown.
On dress coats the inverted triangle
silhouette Is softened by q variety Of
feminine details. An early favorite
on both coats and suits is the detach-
able fox lei. The fox lei, We are Ill
familiar with, because OF its popular
ity this winter but the detachable fea-
ture Is new and practical.
This collar frequently Of silver or
blue fox can be worn In numerous
important and flattering ways. It can
be tied high around the neck for
chilly days or worn nonchalantly off
one shoulder, or crossed diagonally to
the closing ct the side waist line. In
warm weather a scarf can be substi-
tuted for the fur. Small animal pelts
and fiat furs are also fashioned into
separate scarfs to complete the en-
semble.
Coats without Fur
The injured dress coat assumes an
important place in the spring fashion
picture. When they are strictly fitted
though the hips and waist and soft
ened by draped revers, bow or loose
throw at the neck line, they are very
smart and wearable for many occa-
sions. In fact 1t Is the comfortable
soft and becoming features that make
all these new coats 50 exciting. Pique
trim adds 1est to some Of the youthful
models.

Farm Board Liquidation

= There is general rsIief felt in the way the Farm Board is getting rid of its vast stores of wheat and cotton. Of nearly 330.0O0.0 900 bushels of wheat bought to peg the price, there is less than 30.O0O.O0O left. Most of it has been fed back into the market grad ually. at loss averaging around one-half. Much has been given to the Red Cross for distribution to the needy. Some has been traded to Brazil for coffee and some sold to China on long-term credit. Likewise nearly half the 1900. 900 bales of cotton has been given to the Red Gross. and the balance will be marketed at loss of almost two-thirds, starting next month.
 It has been costly experiment, entered upon in defiance of the judgment of most of the professional economists, and yet be- leved at the time by millions of Americans to be a justifiable undertaking. Nearly everybody knows better now. It may be long time before another such effort is made to stabilize the prices of great world commodities whose rise and fall are almost as indifferent to political action as the tides. If the lesson is really learned. it may be worth the quarter billion dollars it has cost

According to special story in the Chris tian Science Monitor, the pay of our presidents has only been increased twice in l43 years. The salary of George Wash ington. our first president, was fixed by Congress at S25,000. For 80 years it remained at this figure. In 1873, or dur ing the administration of Ulysses s. Grant. the salary of the president was doubled. In 1909 the chief executives salary was again raised. this time William Howard Taft be- ing the first one to profit thereby. The increase this time brought it up to S75. .OOO. The viee-president never fared so well as the president. His pay was quite nigardly in comparison. Even in 1925 Congress had only raised it to S15.000. But then, when we read that Thomas Jefferson only re- ceived $500 salary as secretary of state. and Alexander Hamilton the same as seere- tary of treasury. we must admit the govern ment jobs in the carly days of this republic were certainly no indueement to the man struggling to make living for himself and his family. Perhaps that's why so many wealthy men were called upon to assume public office. Today members of Con- gress receive an annual stipend of Sl0,000, while the Speaker gets $l5.000. like the vice ee-president and Cabinet members. It seems, too. that we have read of extras such as transportation money. clerical expenses. etc. Politics is an expensive business and one that doesn't end with the mere election of men to public office.

Railroad Rates

For more than 40 years says statistical economist, the railroads have been paid. for carrying freight. q little over 10 per cent of the wholesale value of the movable goods produced by our factories. farms mines. and forests. When we have been prosperous. the percentage has been little less because of the greater volume and value of our gross products; in periods of depression the rate has been higher. because of the shrinkage of goods and values. This 10 per cent, he concludes. is about the logical average for transportation charges = about what the traffic will bear in the long run.
 In times like this. the freight rates natur- ally are more burdensome than usual. The railroads are losing money. If rates were cut much, soon there would be no more railroads or else the government would own them and investors would lose in the taking over. It looks as if shippers gen. orally speaking. will have to make the best of the situation till rising business and prices lower the rates proportionately.

The liitle old idand of Nsnhiiian probably isn't worrying about the fact that title to some z.500 acres of t are in dispute now. Claimants to the titles have been dis covered all over the country and they are organizing to press their claims against the present owners. These claimants are de- stcndanfs of fwenfy-three of the original pstenteees ofsthe village of New Harlem. As individuals. these people can do nothing about their claims. but as the corporation of the town of New Harlem. they might cause such litigation as would embarrsss owners of property who never knew of the existence of any cloud on their title. The claim is based on charter granted by Gov ernor Thomas Dongan in l6S8 to the pa- tentees conveying valuable property on the Island of Manhattan.

If this land is made ! park" MT Straus has said, it will be used by from 300,00O to 100000 visitors every weekend" Improve ments would make it an ideal re- sort, with its trees, beach and wa terfront. The parks of Westchcs- ter are invaded every Saturday and Sunday by thousands who come from New York. >"We cannot un-. derstand," declares Chief Engineer Downer of the WeStchester Coun- ty Park commission, "why the city of New York docs not provide parks for, it's own people" One op- portunity would come if Fort Schuyler were to be acquired. There is,, however. a hitch: 1t has been proposed to divide the reser- vation between the State Merchant Marine Academy and the city. MT, Straus naturally holds out for a park of all the fifty-two acres. It would be none too large, for the purpose. A twenty-acre water front near Fort Schuyler would be sufficient for the academy, and it IS available.

A Book a Day
Love Was the Big Attraction
 On This Cruise
by BRUCE CATION

In "Promenade Deck" Ishbel Ross discusses the odd things that can happen to q group of people who are held together for five months by the fact that they all embarked together on round- the-world cruise.
 Mostly, she finds, they fall in love--usually with the wrong peo- pie. And since they can't get away from the people with whom they have fallen out of love. things are apt to get rather interesting.
 She gets together typical "iuxury liner'' crowd; a young man just out of Princeton. a pert little fiapper, an explorer who has just eloped with the wife of q dessicated professor, a conscience less lady on the lookout for ex- citement, novelist who aims to sample the drinks of every port in the world, red-haired young fe- male who can't hold her liquor. a prim little schoo1ma'am from the middle west, a deserted Eng fish wife-and so on, until she has a suitably hectic mixture. Then she turns them loose and watches to see what happens.
 What happens is plenty, and in the telling of 1t there is a good deal of interest. The book is oddly uneven, for some reason; some stretches are flat and lifeless: with unreal people uttering stilted dialogue, and some are extremely moving and convincing. Some Of the characters - notably the schoolma' 'am--are simply stock figures, wooden and inert; others are very well drawn.
 All in all, Promenade Deck will i'll in a couple of hours nice- ly. It is published by Harpers, and it will cost you $2.

Wanderlust

There IS always an army of wanderers floating about the country in the summer time. 1t is recruited usually by the spirit of spring and the yearning for new scenes. Now there is the added force of economic pressure. Unemployment and discomfort at home. drive the young men forth and sometimes the middle-aged or the old. and some of them are girls. The fields look greener farther on. There must be better fishing. So the seasonal army swells until the migrant horde may number half million.
 There are varied recruits in that army. To the ordinary hoboes are added the skilled workmen, the college or high school stu dents. the uneasy and adventurous of many social levels. We see them mainly on the highway, eagerly perking their thumbs or plodding along with set faces and tired feet. They parallel the railroads and hang around freight yards.
 Few of them gain any advantage from their migration. Many of them come to grief. Though they are hard to persuade of the fact, nearly all of them are worse off than they would be at home. Who wants to give employment or charity to strangers when his own friends or neighbors or towns folk need help9 In a time like this. partcu- larly. the best place is among ones own people If they have little, they are likely to share what they have including the priceless gifts of sympathy and under standing

We are glad to see that Senator Bingham can convey some cheerful news from this state to President Hoover. However, we think that he is about the only republican in the state who is SO enthused over the chances of Mir Hoover carrying Connecticut this falL So far as we can see. most re- publieans are coneeding Connecticut to the democrats. After the state ticket is drawn up by the g.op. we will be able to get a better idea of how they rank their chances. If they are good there will be strong can didate at the head of the ticket If not. the position will go to merely the strongest of number of candidates now openly seeking the office. Evidently Mr Bingham isn't worrying about his own chances. If he is opposed by Representative Lonergan. he had better start campaigning right now.

Sound Recommendation

In addressing the gathering of women democrats at Columbia Tuesday afternoon Attorney John C. Blackall of Hartford, former resident of this city, gave his listeners some good advice. We sincerely hope that his message will be broadcast from demo- cratic state headquarters as it was well worth reprintng We understand that the state central committee is shortly to issue at regular intervals bulletin of demoefatic doings. One of the first items should be resume of Attorney Blaekall's demands for support of Governor Cross by election of friendly Legislature.
 xs He pointed out that had the governor ebeen given legislative support last year many .of the reforms now being urged by both sdcmocrats and republicans would have gained considerable headway. We might .mention specifically his request for a sur svey of the tax situation in the state and the Substitution of district court system for four present overlapping city. police. Juve- nile, and justice of the. peace courts. Gov ernor Cross also recognized the need of old age pension legislation. Ultimately he did manage to secure half hearted support from republican legislators but they imagined that they had crippled him by negeeting to ap- propriate money for this commissions work. Fortunately enough, to make start towards surveying conditions in the statc was found available recently. sssg There are other matters in which the gov .erfaors program. as outlined in his inaugural < address was hindered Not that, we ex- peetcd to find the republican majority in the General Assembly agreeing with him Tn every particular But there were certain msior points that demanded bipartisan sup pert and failed to get it. Now as result the state finds itself faced with the prospect of a. special session of the Legislature. We have consistently opposed it, because we cant see why hostile republican legislators should change their viewpoints in the short speriod of sixteen or eighteen months. Yet sprominent republican officials in the state can't understand why Governor Cross hesl- tatcs to call special session.
 Along this line and even deeper into the subjects did Mir Blackall go in his defense of the Cross regime and his. demand for friendly Legislature to aid him next year and ensuing. years. For example he favored the recent plan advocated by Chief Justice Will aisrr, M. Maltbie of the State Supreme Court. namely, of eliminating our county Jails and substituting one centrally located institution preferably jaiL farm. Mir Blackall would even go further than that and eliminate sothcr county officers, such as the eommis- ssioners, and. have the counties turn their court houses over to the state. This would De in the interest of reduced costs of gov- ernment. That is one way of bringing taxes down to a fair level and much surer than levying taxes on saleable articles.

BINGHAM vs LONERGAN
fNew Britian Heraldl


 If Congressman Lonergan be- comes the democratic candidate for the U. $. senate to contest with Senator Bingham the battle will be a hard one. And as both candi- dates will be in favor of modifica- tion in the prohibit ionlaw they will not be at odds on this point. But Senator Bingham will not be quite as wet as Congressman Lonergan if party, platforms on which they will stand can be regarded as a criterion. It may be, of course, that Senator Bingham will attempt to go further in the campaign than merely standing upon the repubh- can platform; indeed, he early noted a dissatisfactoin with the re- publican liquor plank. He will not go as far in the direction of total and immediate repeal as Congress- man Lonergan, who can whole heartedly favor the platform of his party in this respect.
 Senator Bingham, being wet, IS destined to have some difficulty in fitting himself to ride in the re- publican platform harness. es- pecially in view of the fact that
 
 he will likewise run on a support Hoover personal platform. and this after the president has made his views definitely known in his ac- ceptance speech.
 The presidents acceptance speech is likely to be a model of beating around the prohibition is- sue. What he intends to say 1t is stated by persons close to the ad- ministration, is that the republican plank is the truly democratic method of securing a settlement of the prohibition issue,, while the democratic plan will smean the re- turn of the saloon. In this way the president will not commit him. self to the wet or dry sides of the question.
 Win Senator Bingham follow suit?
