BRITISH EXPORTS TO US.
DROP IN FOUR MONTHS
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
British exports to the United States
during the first four months of 1888
totaled $20,344, 900. loss OF about
10 per cent as compared with last
year, on the basis OF calculation by
the Commerce Department.
The figures are based on declarations
executed at American consulates in the
United Kingdom. covering about 80 per
cent OF the British shipments.
1t was pointed out that British for
eign trade figures show total values
OF exports to the United States on a
quarterly basis, and are not strictly
comparable to American consulate sta
tistics. owing largely to the time lag
in accounting.

Loan Banks 70 make any progress IN as
sis,ing distressed property owners in the
state.
IL is just as well then that the state Off
Gals moved slowly. Had the first impulse
been obeyed there would have been special
legislative session last week. Now there IS
no need of one so far as we can see. The
most pressing problem that was to come be-
fore the session. in our estimation, was that
of making the Home Loan banks operative
in the state. Such other matters as were be-
ing proposed rightly do not demand the
immediate presence OF our legislators in
Hartford.
The ruling on the legality of the savings
banks accepting the bonds was handed down
by Deputy Attorney General Ernest L.
Averill. He holds that any state bank and
trust company or savings bank may ex-
change any delinquent home mortgage loan
owned by it on real estate acquired in con-
nection with any such mortgage for bonds
of the Home Owners Loan Corporation.
provided the board of directors or trustees
has carefully considered the situations and
conditions surrounding the particular mort
gage and the real estate involved and is of
the opinion that such an exchange will be
to the advantage of the savings depositors
to protect them from further loss. -
In short our banks, under the law pre-
vented from such investments as the bonds
of this corporation not guaranteed as they
should be by our statutes, may accept the
bonds. In view fthe fact that the majority
of home mortgages are held by banks this
ruling will permit more hard pressed owners
to seek the aid of the federal offices. That
is as it should be. We are aware of def
mite emergency and in such case our actions
should be guided accordingly. To prevent
proper operation of this federal machinery
in Connecticut would be in sense defeat
of the entire plan. -

Drug Store Liquor

The changing liquor situation in this
country enters another phase, which citizens
not personally concerned in such matters may
not have noticed. The whiskey trade is
shifting from bootleggers to drug stores. No
disrespeet to the druggists is intended. They
are within the law, and indeed are evidently
doing what the law expected them to do.
Congress during the last session liberalzed
the sale of bonded whiskey for medicinal
purposes giving physicians broad powers to
prescribe it freely as ''stimulant'' During
the last two months the drug stores have
been flooded with prescriptions for liquor
in quantities up to pint at time.
Citizens who regard this traffic as bad
may find corresponding gain As people
can get honest, well-aged whiskey from the
druggist, they stop patronizing the ilegiti-
mate trade. Bootlegger deliveries have fall
en- off Moonshine stuff is hardly sold now
except in the speakeasies. But the price
goes up. Bond whiskey has gone above
SIS case, and is still rising The ware
house stock runs low. Expensiveness may
give the bootleggers another chance. Maybe
new legislation next winter will ease the
situation by admitting foreign whiskey at
low enough tariff to kill off the bootleg
racket.

The state park and forest commission
isn't going to revoke the IS cent parking
charge it inaugurated some weeks ago at
four of our state parks. judging by recent
declarations. A special meeting of the board
was called last week and it was voted to
consider the charge and to ignore all the
attacks of individuals and also of the State
Senate. Lucius F. Robinson. Sr. of Hart
ford. chairman of the board said at the time
that There is no question as to the wis
dom of the charge. nor our power to make
it. We analysed the situation very carefully;
we have talked to the Governor and others
and find we have almost universal approval
of the charge. :" Incidentally it should
be stressed probably that in the four parks.
where there is ascent levy exaeted from
motorists that there are also free parking
places The charge is simply for the more
advantageous positions. The parks affected
are Hammonassett, Rocky Neck, Sherwood
Island. and Kent Falls. Closing of the
Sherwood Island park was predicted unless
the commission can raise some money for its
maintenance. said the commission last week.
There is no doubt that insufficient funds
were allotted the commission in view of the
amount of work it is asked to do in pro-
viding reereational centers. Perhaps in the
future this can be corrected and parking
charges ended.

Government Banking

Business men have begun to tell the gov
eminent recovery people that they cannot
observe the new code. with its requirements
of fewer hours. higher pay and moderate
prices without more bank credit than is now
in sight. Commercial credit is still tight
almost everywhere, and in cities that have
suffered most severely from bank closings
is olmst non-existent. The R. F. c. has
leaped into the breach with proposal to
provide commercial banks with funds to
lend. by buying preferred stock in those
banks. The stock presumably would be
taken as security. But it might be kept.
A business writer observes: "A billion
dollars in this form. if widely used not only
could provide all the new credit that in
dustry would need for raising wages by Sep
TENDER, but would build the new national
capitalism still more firmly into American
financial life Many reader will pause
thoughtfully over that phrase national cap
italism'. We have quite bit of it al
ready.
Whether the government can withdraw
from the lending policy forced by private
banking collapse is questionable. At best.
it will be a slow process. The immediate
prospect is deeper public penetration into
private banking, with corresponding growth
in control. The government may never
again get out of the banking business The
saving fact, in facing such prospect, is that
the American public has more faith in its
government than in anything else

less prepared him well for the i'm

We have spoken before in these
columns Of the great good that 1t
seems must come from the provis-
ion made by the government to
save to thousands Of worthy people
the homes they had worked hard to
gain and were in danger Of losing
through unemployment. The Roose
welt relief plan proposes to trans
fer the burden of small home mort
gage debt from private mortgage
holders to the federal government.
AS we have previously explained,
the home loan board, with a capt.
talization of two billions, will ad.
vance to mortgagers bonds on l.
beral terms by which these Gains
may be paid off.
The flood Of applications which
Mr. Kennedy reports on the OPEN
ing of his state headquarters at
New Haven shows that the plan Is
a popular and much needed one.
It's honest and efficient administra-
ton will mean much to an indus
trial state like Connecticut under
present conditions. Six hundred
and fifty applications, totaling
400, 900, were received on the
first day. This means big business
and big responsibility and q lot OF
work to be done, carefully and
thoroughly. There are branch Of
fees to be established in various
parts Of the state, a working per-
sonnet to be engaged and gem
eral organization to be completed.
Director Kennedy has been frank
and explicit in his statements to
the press and public regarding the
undertaking Of which he il the re-
sponsible head. He says that his
aim Is to provide prompt financial
aid to home owners with as little
red tape and Inconvenience as pos
sibIe and that Is what is wanted.
Director Kennedy is to receive
5000 a year for his services and
there is every likelihood that he
will earn 1t, for the position he
holds Is no political sinecure. We
cheerfuly predict that here is an

Acting Slowly

There has been considerable criticism of
recent months over the slowness in which
appointments have been made in the several
state departments controlled by the demo-
Gratis This is particularly true in the case
of State Tax Commissioner William H.
Hackett and Motor Vehicle Commissioner
Michael A. Conner. A recent item in the
Hartford Times called to our attention the
fact that others are as aware of this fact as
are we. And it also convinced us that others
realize that such procrastination is for the
ultimate good of the party. Both men are
showing considerable foresight and wisdom
in making changes slowly.
In the first place any wholesale changes
in their respective departments would have
resulted in general confusion with no good
for either the heads of the department or the
state itself. By retaining temporarily their
office stats the work of the department has
not been let down one bit. And during the
interval the new incumbents are acquainting
themselves with their duties and with the
vast amount of detail that their assistants
will have to display when they name them.
The motor vehicle department is regarded
as main source or patronage to party.
It was always that to the republicans That's
J why they were so sorry to lose control of it.
because it meant that some influence that
. they maintained in various sections of the
state would be weakened. That may ac-
count in part for the campaign of Harry E.
Mackenzie. former republican leader in Fair
field county, to build up strong county Or
CARNATIONS. Still it does not compel sim
liar haste on the part of the democrats to take
over full and complete control of the depart
ment. That will come in time.
1t isn't question OF giving job to
deserving democrat. In most of these de-
partments it will be necessary for the appli-
cants to display their fair share of ability
before they can be considered qualified. This
is quite possible in view of the fact that for
every position there are number of appli-
cants. And it explains the delay in max
ing the changes. When that has been ae-
complished at least the heads of the depart
ment will have the knowledge that the
transfer was accomplished efficiently and
their staff can be compared favorably with
previous ones.
