Mobile Work Corps

The civilian conservation corps contem- plated by the government is novel experi- ment in this country. Yet It seems to com mend itself to the public. It may prove to be not merely humane relief measure, but one of much practical utility. If it fails to meet expectations. it can be abandoned.
 This force of 250.000 men is to be used in simple work, not interfering with nor- nal employment and eonfinng itself to forestry, the prevention of soil erosion flood control and similar projects" It can easily be mobiized from the unemployed. There are probably a couple of million men in the country who at present would welcome chance to enter such service for dollar day, with their food, clothing shelter and equipment provided.
 For many it would mean an interesting adventure; for many, salvation for them- selves or their families. The expense to the government apparently will be moderate. There is no obvious conflict with organized labor in this combination of relief work and public service
 From the public point of view, such mobile army of workmen should have value not only for conserv5tion work, but for big emergency jobs. The recent river floods suggest both types of usefulness. Adequate treatment of rivers and their watersheds tends to prevent floods. If floods come, there IS a force prepared for rescue work and recon- structon It would be invaluable in cass of a big fire or earthquake.
 The civilian corps cain serve some of the peace-tme purposes of soldiers and marines though normally engaged on public property in projects of the federal and state govern ments If no unforeseen difficulties are ex- perenced. uses for its services may soon multiply

The Bureaucratic City

A citizen who has recently visited Wash ington writes: When one sees the new government buildings springing up like mushrooms all over the city, one can easily realize why it is that the people of the coun- try are in the mood to revolt against existing conditions. He speaks with appreciation of recent book called The Wonderland of Bureaucracy" and says when you read that book and look at those buildings, you understand what is going on at Washington and all over the country.
 The suggestion is worth thinking about. We Americans love and admire public archi lecture. We take pride in our public build ings, We take particular pride in the archi- tectural establishment of our national cap. ital Yet if those buildings represent not only waste and needless cost but establish ment of an entrenched bureaucracy, we may change our viewpoint. Burcaucrats are as hard to rout from public buildings as armies from forresses It will hardly be maintained that the best government comes from marble palaces.

According to information that can hardly be questioned. J. Francis Smith of this city is scheduled to be the next chairman of the democratic state central committee. At the present time he is its secretary and Attorney David A. Wilson, former Hartford post master. is chairman. But if all goes we'll Mir Wilson will be elevated to federal job, that of U. S. District Attorney for Connecticut. His name has already been submitted to the Senate and simply waits approval there for the appointment to become binding. Failure of Mir Wilson to secure this post. for which there naturally are several candidates, might mean delay in the accession of Mir Smith to the chairmanship. but it seems to be almost taken for granted that ultimately, if not sooner, he is destined to be the party chair man and perhaps the youngest one that it ever has had.

TAX COLLECTORS ON THE
 SPOT
(Meriden Journall

NMeT1QSI JOuEHdlJ
 Ordinarily the job of local tax collector is attractive and much sought by the faithful in political parties. The only exceptions Tn this state, it would appear, are likely to be in the cities of Derby and Torrington, where, a lawsuit in Derby has disclosed, the col lectors are required by law to pay into the common treasury the full amount of uncollected taxes each fiscal year.
 The surprising arrangement has worked in Derby and probably also in Torrington because the col- lector has filed liens against ,delin- quent taxpayers in favor of himself and then fioated a loan to cover the existing deficit. The past year Collector Peter J. Mcintyre suc- ceeded in borrowing $10,000 in Derby but there still remained S8,0O0 uncollected and the city has made demand for this sum on the bonding company. Whereupon the bonding company promptly served notice it would refuse to renew the bond and, moreover, will con- test the $8;000 demand on the ground that 1t is not liable because the collectors honesty and integ- rity are not involved.
 The tax collector working under such charter provision would seem to have a tough racket and partic- ularly fin these times when co1- lectors elsewhere are ringing up huge amounts in uncoi1ected leviea and letting the citizens themselves do the worrying. The Derby situ- ation may be relieved by the leg islature but heretofore bills intro- duced to take the unjust load off MT McIntyre's shoulders have not met with warm support from a citizenry that takes its taxes quite seriously,

Denatured Sunlight

Pittsburgh still has the reputation of be- ing the country's most smoke disfigured city. but many other communities have long suf- fered from a similar nuisance and are only now beginning to find it out and do some thing about it. The United States Public Health Service has been studying the smoke pail that hangs over Baltimore. It reports that the smoke from the chimneys of factor ies. office buildings and homes at times shuts off as much as 50 per cent of the total light from the sun. Sunlight preaching Batimores citizens averages l4.l percent less than that reaching human beings in an area only ten miles from the city.
 The health authorities are agreed that sunshine supplies certani essential health giving elements. It is up to civic author- ties, urged on by intelligent private citizens, to see to it that the sunlight is not plotted out or robbed of it's beneficial qualities be- fore it reaches them.

Patronage Worries

The tendency upon the part of President Roosevelt, Postmaster General Farley, and other leaders to postpone temporarily dis fnbntion of patronage among deserving democrats has merely served to intensity fac ficnal differences Feelings are at high pitch, because the air of uncertainty that surrounds every appointive office is increased rather than lessened as time passes. This sit- uation is as true in Connecticut as in any other state. And new factor has just arisen to yex democratic leaders. It is the rise of Attorney General Homer Stille Cummings to place of prominence and respect in the Roosevelt cabinet.
 Of recent years Mir Cummings part in state or national politics has been more of an advisory rather than an active one. He was a Roosevelt supporter however. from the very outset of the le32 campaign and this doubtless carried plenty of weight down at Washington when positions were being discussed He was originally intended for the Philippines, but death intervened and made him Attorney General in place of the late revered Senator Tom Walsh of Mon- tana. So we'll has Mir Cummings acquitted himself in his few weeks in office that he is now regarded as permanent appointee. l he president seems to assent in this belief.
 If that is the case and Mir Cummings re- mains the power that he has already become in the White House, he is certainly apt to wield considerable influence in the distrbu- ton of Connecticut patronage. As Roose- welt supporter, he is consequently ranked witt, National Committee man Archibald McNsll of Bridgeport and Dr. Edward c. Dolan of Manchester, the acknowledged Roosevelt lieutenants in Connecticut But there re- mains still fresh in democratic minds the Knowledge that some years ago the demo- cratic party of the state was controlled by that famous triumvirate of Cummings, Spellacy, and Fitzgerald.
 Further than that we might mention the fret that Attorney General Cummings IS close friend of Senator William Gibbs Me Adoo of California. not to mention Seere- tary of State Cordell Hull. The latter does not figure in this reckoning but is merely used to show that Attorney General Cum wings is strongly intrenched in Washington. However. we cant forget that during the Wilson administration Thomas J. Spelacy was railroad administrator for this district and his superior at Washington was the same William Gibbs McAdoo who is now sem ator from California. In pointing out these several relationships our sole purpose is to prepare the reader for almost anything in the line of democratic patronage in Con- necticut

hngs we never knew until just recently - there is broad belt of cedar trees run ming from Long Island Sound to the Hud. son river that is regarded in nursery circles as about the best ever found.

Here, There And EDervuhere

, and never can be measured by any material yardstick. Nevertheless. there were material evidences of dozens of kinds and in scores of places of good that had been done. McCormack's charities we're partly the reason for giving him this dis. tinction. But in addition to that | factor he was selected expressly on account of the good done by his singing. Recognition is plain here, then, of the fact that the act of good-' ness is more than one of prescrib- ing nostrums, that art as well as science fills human need, that that which administers to the in- visible part of Humankind is no less praiseworthy than that which administers to the part which can be seen with the eye, that in the end music can strike a pretty close par with medicine. No amount of argument can convince some that | it is so; the Notre Dame author- ities lean the othar way. ia Incidentally. while the bond be- tween the two fields is being noted, that between these two individuals ought to be, too. While the new recipient of the Laetare Medaf'is q singer of songs, the man who preceded him was a writer of them

states were seemingly intent on deciding how they would deal with the repeal of the 18th Amsndmsnt four states passed the Child Labor Amendment. Then a little investi- gation revealed that a number of other states had the amendment under considera- ton. With practically all of the state Leg islatures now in session there is every indi- cation that some effort will be made to have each and every one of them consider the child labor amendment again or for the first time.
 Senator Blaekall is chairman of the com mittee on federal relations to which would come any measure dealing with federal constitutional amendment. Having had his attention called to recent activity in the child labor amendmen he has undertaken probe to see just where Connecticut now stands on the question. Although Connecticut has rejected the amendment once, according to the records. there is nothing to prevent the amendment again being placed before the General Assembly. There is nothing to pre- vent reversal of the first vote on it.
 Connecticut may still feel that limitation, regulation. and prohibition of labor of all persons under IS years of age is strictly a state problem and not federal one, but there is increasing evidence that with the cooperation of the American Federation of Labor and Secretary Frances Perkins of the Department of Labor the proposed amend- ment is apt to prove more attractive today than it was nine years ago.

Although it is not yet known just what method of retailing will be adopted in Con- necticut when beer sales are legalized it is safe to assume that the beverage will be off, fered by various dealers, such as restaurants, grocery stores, etc. On all retailers of malt liquors Uncle Sam will collect a tax of $20 per year. so don't forget that if you plan to sell beer. Wholesale dealers must pay the federal government $50 annually. Brewers are taxed $l.000. However, the govern ment's fiscal year ends July l. so only a quarterly tax will be collected in April. Taxes are payable through the internal rev. enue branch offices.

Is This The Millennium?

This can't be the millennium yet it seemed as if it might be when we read that the Crusaders, the national anti-prohibltlon organization. was seeking support of prom inent dry groups throughout the country in campaign. However. we cant presup- pose any millennium until such support has been offered by the prohibitionists and then accepted by the vets. It all happened in this fashion. Fred c. Clark commander in chief of tbe Crusaders. sent Alegrams to all acknowledged dry leaders soliciting their support in finding solution of the liquor problem.
 So far as we know he has not yet received many answers to his cry that oday is the most opportune time in American history to inaugurate proper protective legislation dealing with the liquor traffic. And we don't expect that he will receive any un- less he and his organization radically change their stand on the subject in which both are interested. It is possible to convert more pro- hibitionists to the wet cause than 1t is vets to the dry cause. But it isn't possible to change the opinion of person who doesn't want it changed no matter how convincing may be The argument.
 And the true prohibitionlst is willing to sacrifice even government in the interest of his or her cause. We are positive that this belief is sworn to and subscribed by great many people after listening to their argu- ments and watching their tactics in the last thirteen years. They had everything at their command in 1920 when prohibition went into effect. Yet they could not hold even the ground that temperance societies had gained for them in over century endless
