It's Certainly Novel

If there is one outstanding feature of the proposed Home Acres of the state board of fisheries and game and the state commls- sion on forest and wild life it is it's novelty. The plan has been printed on several oeeas- ions but there is no real harm in mention ing it again and commenting upon il. Our state officials are even now in Washington eonferring with the national NRA board, or else returning with decision. It would be necessary to secure about $l2,000,000 for the establishment of the idea in this state.
 The idea is simply this Older unem- ployed men and partially disabled veterans would benefit by it, They would be set- tied on abandoned farm lands, twenty fam lilies to l500 acre tract. Each family would be given a house with sufficient acreage on which would be raised enough vegetables and livestock for sustenanee. It is believed that after the first year all the separate units would be self-sustainng. Now just why the state should promote such scheme is invisible to many, but the reasons are quite simple and also to be praised,
 There are three real accomplishments. Population, now clustered in cities or urban areas, would be redistributed This, would result in reducing the number of names at present on charity and relief rolls. Neglected lands would be put to use again. There are said to be 850000 idle acres of land in Connecticut. Placing them under eulti- vation, whether it is to crops or trees eer. tainly is an accomplishment. And the state would profit by proper control of wood' lands which today are practically all that is left of our natural heritage and which af. ford the sole refuge and source of food for all wild life.
 If the plan is approved nationally as it is in the state it would mean that land would change hands; houses would be built; ma ehinery and agricultural supplies would be built livestock would be purchased. The Sl2.ooo,o0o appropriation asked would esse for settlement of 5000 families on 50 units All of this is most encouraging. But. there always is a a but in our mind these days. can the state secure 5000 families ready and willing to return to the soil. If 60 the scheme should work out the way it's packers plan it. But if only few hundred families are found willing to test the exper- inaent, then it would be simply an cxpcri. ment and not vast plan with far-reaeh- ing effects. Once the state officials have secured federal funds, if they arc so fortu. nate, they will be faced by the enormous task of getting 5000 families assembled willing and ready to forsake the city streets and the lure of steady employment in our hummins mills for the solitude of rural acres. That, in our opinion, is real task

Another Milestone Whizzes By

When you are travelling fast and have no speedometcr one way of guaging your speed is to watch the milestoneS. along the road and zee how rapidly they are whizzins by you. One of the handest milestoneS now available for Uncle Sam's children IS that provided by the banking business. Less than a year ago finance was still the sacred mystery of the old days, d realm wh'el, ordinary mortas might not criticize and into which a mere public servant might not venture without first removing his hat.
 Today we find responsible government officials declaring that it may soon be necessary for Uncle Sam to assume virtual control of the whole banking industry. The R. F. C.. it is pointed out is ready to invest billion dollars in stock of banking institutions. In this way 1t could get Ao per cent ownership in American bank eap- ital, and would have an important voice in the control of most of the nations banking resources.
 It would, of course take the seventh son of a seventh son to say right now whether all of this will actually be done. But the mere fact that the administration is talking about it is immensely significant Do you see that milestone whizzing past'
 Now it is easy to find good reasons for opposing this proposed step. The prn- cipal reason that will occur to most people. probably. is that we have no guarantee whatever that the scheme would work out well. No one that is knows whether Uncle Sam is qualified to run the banking business, He might make fine hash of things. But any question of this kind has got to be considered against. it's proper background; and the proper background for this one IS the simple fact that the existing system has been working very badly indeed for quite long time. Bank depositors and stock holders have lost great deal of money, and trade has not had the credit facilities it should have had. We may be moving at frightening pace, but we had plenty to be afraid of when we were standing still.

action will be instituted to prove uneonsti- nationality.
 Somehow that sounds like ridiculous action. We don't see how any court in the land could very we'll rule that the voters of the nation were at fault. And that is just what any ruling on the eonstitutonality of the repeal votes would be, Anybody who likes to gather statistics could show an im- pressive picture if he or she collected the votes for and against the 18th amendment in the II states that to date have voted. The result would be one-sided, but it would prove our point, namely. that sentiment in the nation is for repeal regardless of how it is effected.
 Another interesting thing for some statis- tician would be comparison of the votes in the states ratfying the repeal amendment with recent elections of the last decade in which the wet and dry issue might have fig urcd It would show a steady swing away from federal control of the liquor laws. And if that is disputed all we can say is that the die-hards refuse to recognize the trend Of the times. If any other nation spent the staggering amounts of money that we did to enforce laws it would be calamity. But in the states we simply regard it as an cx- pertinent of which we arc well rid. Let us hope that we never again make the same mistake

For the past l2 years superintendent of the division of stamps of the Postoffice De- partment. Michael L. Eidsness, Jr., has just announced his resignation effective October 18th. This will come as surprise and as a distinct shock to many people in the na- tion particularly philatelists who have come in contact with Mir Eifsness in the past decade. He has been marvellous friend to phlately and it may be some time before the hobby will find another like him. In- eidentally Eidsness has been in postal service 26 years. On July l. 1907, he was named page in the office of the Fourth Assistant Postmaster General On June l6. lo2l. he was made superintendent of the stamp division. Since then his work has been entirely devoted to new stamp issues. whether commemorative or regular issue. It is rumorcd that the Eidsness resignation may be only the beginning of many changes planned in the department.

All-American Action

Brazil always prompt to show her friend ship for us has applauded our governments s consultation with the representatives of Latin-Ameriean countries on the Cuban crisis. and the assurances given them that we have no desire to intervene. The other countries concerned are treasured and pleased. Mexico, with whom we have had many diff faculties in the past, taking her cue from Washington sends her sster.republies a round-robin note urging constructive CO., operation. Argentina, which in recent years has consistently opposed nearly everything our government suggested, grows less critical.
 No one knows yet what may blow up in Havana but the outlook has been growing little brighter. Whatever happens, obvi- ously the wise course for this country is to follow as nearly as possible the policy already adopted, being patient with Cuba and welcoming the help of all Latin. America in solving problems as they arise. It is time that the dream of Pan.Ameriea, represented by the most beautiful building in Washing. ton, really began to grow into reality. All these young American republics, of which the United States has been the patron and is still the natural leader. belong together. each in sef-reSpeeting sovereignty, but all acting with each other in their common troubles, or if necessary against the rest of the world. Here is a rare chance to draw the bonds tighter. And Uncle Sam will succeed all the better by refraining from cracking any heads among his sensitive little brothers.

MIR BALDWIN EXPLAINS
(Ilartford Times)

tIiuTtiVTt bfHtSSI
 1t was not even q herring but only a minnow and very small one nt that, and Representative Raymond D. Baldwin of stratford had small success in attempting to draw 1t across the trail at Il gath ering of Fairfield county fepubli. cans at Bedding.
 Mir Baldwin sought to reply to tho charge of pr Edward c. DO. Ian, democratic collector Of inter- nal revenue, that tho pay of three republican state officials had been raised by the stctc board of finance and control. tho majority of whose members are republicans.
 MT Baldwin asserted that pr Do' Ian had neglected" altogether to let tho public know that the two major democratic appointees. Mo. tor Vehicle Commissioner Connof and Tax Commissioner Hackett had assumed office this year at the maximum salaries paid to their re- publican prcdec cssors."
 MT Baldwin is ingenious If not ingenious. He was seeking to con vey the impression that what the republicans did with reference to republican salaries was no different from what the democrats did with democratic salaries. But in the language which he used with re. ference to Dr Dolan. MT Baldwin neglected altogether to let the public know" that what the repub.. iican board of finance and control did was to revise existing salaries upward while what was done m the case of the democratic motor vehicles commissioner and tax commissioner was to appoint them to offices for which the salaries are set by statute law.
 Possibly MT Baldwin intended his auditors to believe that there is a sort of merit system in the public service whereby the heads of important departments and bur eaus begin at the bottom and rise to the top. Of course he is well aware, as a veteran legislator who became the house leader Of ms party at the same salary he got as a beginning legislator. that nothing of the sort is true. The salaries for such offices as he alluded to are as much fixed by statute as are the salaries of the governor, the leu tenant-governor, the repupncan commissioner of finance and con- trol, the judges of the courts and other officials.
 Mir Baidwin's audience could scarcely have felt compiimented upon its intelligence in the face of such a limping argument.

ing out tho probability that tho reGulsIto number of states womid have entered tho repeal column bv November s. II this happens it does not mean that repeal will b0 with US on that date. Jt moreiv means that we shall Dc sure of it. Repeal will come only when the conventions for which thirtv.siS favorable states have eiefged dele. gates meet and formally register tho verdicts Of their eonstitucncieR.
 For example. twcnty.two states have already pledged themselves to ratification by eiectinG q heavy preponderance--i most cases q complete slate--of repeal dele sates ta their conventions, but only nineteen have actually ratified. In the remaining three--Oregon, Ari- zona and MIssouri--thci. convcn- tions have still to meet. Fifteen more states have / scheduled cleo. ton dates between now and No- ccmber 8 ,or one more than enough to put tho Twenty-h first Amendment in the Constitution If nll vote for it's adoption. Another three or four are likely to follow Suit. But of those whose dates to vote for delegates are already. to set five have scheduled their con- ventiops for the first week in De- cember and one has yet to name tho day of meeting. The latter is Utah, whose election will take place on November z. Her conven- ton when finally scheduled. will hardly assemble as early as No- vember 8.
 So let us get 1t out of our minds that repeal Is only seventy seven days off. There is still, of course, an outside chance of its arrival then, provided enough laggard states jump into the race to make the action of those that have set late convention dates unnecessary. otherwise another month must in- tervenc. But what Is a month after fourteen long years of hope de- ferred?

Massachusetts is flirting with the idea of creating commission on elections. It is proposed that two democrats and two re- publieans constitute this new board whose duties would tighten many now imposed on the secretary of state. It would regulate primaries and elections and recommend eer- tain changes in statutes, Wed just like to sec what will happen when those two demo. erats and two republicans get together. It certainly will need the service of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court to cast the deciding vote And we wouldn't be sur. prised to find his service enlisted on frequent occasions.

Guinea Pigs

Maybe twenty million Frenehmen can't be wrong. That's a point it's a little diff cult to be sure about But certainly one hundred million Americans can make guinea pigs of themselves and let every quaek ex- pertinent on them to their detriment. The book, "looooo,0o Guinea Pigs" by Ar thur Kallett and F. J. Sehlink of Consumers Research. Inc, recently published by the Van. guard Press. certainly leaves one quoting Puek's sad and whimsical line. What fools these mortals be
 It leaves the reader. also, with another and slightly more constructive thought He'd had d sneakns idea for some time that all the protective work was by no means done when the last Pure Food and Drugs Act was passcd-that there was crying need for a successor to Dr Harvey Wiley that stauneh old fighter for the human guinea pigs right to health and cleanliness.
 It takes a good fighter to stand up against the interests so keen to deceive the public with spacious advertising of articles useless and sometimes dangerous. But the average man is waking up nowadays on more Sides than one. He is not taking SO many old slogans on faith as he used to do. He and his wife may in time learn that the most useful therapeutics and beautifiers in the whole pharmaeopeia are free, The best cosmetic is pure water the best antseptie is sunshine; the best medicines arc the moderate exercise in the open air and the quiet mind which lead to restful sleep These need neither radio ballyhoo nor frenzied printed advertsinc
