himself of his now famous "auto-
cratic and un-American" phrase,
he little realized that his words
would echo around the world, but
they have.
They first echoed in the halls
of Congress under the great dome
of the Capitol, and they re-
echoed in the councils of foreign
governments interested in the
United States becoming mem
ber of the Permanent Court of
International Justice of the
League of Nations or member
of the League itself. They re-
echoed, too, and with ringing
tones, in high government and
educational councils of foreign
nations as well as in the United
States, particularly foreign ma
tions interested in bringing the
United States into foreign entan-
clements and making of the
United States either a member Of
the United Nations Of the World,
the brotherhood Of man union.
or a member of an empire with
a Mother Country.
The latter idea may be best
understood by the public if it is
known that certain Americans
have believed and do believe that
the United States should be a
colony Of the British Empire: that
this country really should be big
brother to Canada and a son of
England, tie Mother Country.
A man holding such beliefs was
Andrew Carnegie. He expressed
himself in the matter numerous
times, in writing and verbally.
Reference to his books, writings
and speeches will convince any
reasonable man or woman.
What Carnegie Said
Just as an illustration, I will
quote from his book, "Trium.
phant Democracy" In that book,
published in 1893, Mr.. Carnegie
wrote:
"BritOn and American being
now fully agreed that those
who made the attempt to tax
the cOlOniSts without their con-
sent were wrong, and that in
resisting this the colonists vim
dicated their rights as British
citizens, and therefore only did
their duty, the question arises,
Is a separation thus forced
upon one of the parties, and
now thus deeply regretted by
the other, to be permanent"
Mr.. Carnegie, after giving six
reasons, went on to say:
&c" Some day, therefore,
delegates from the three now
separated branches will meet in
London and readily agree upon
and report for approval and
ratification a basis for the
restoration of the indiSsOluble
union of indeStructible states"
In an article written by re-
quest of the London Express, pub
lished October IA. 1904, entitled
Drifting Together-Will the
United States and cana d a

Unite?", Mr.. Carnegie had the fol-
lowing to say:
"Canada's destiny is to annex
the Republic (meaning the
United States) as Scotland did
England, and then, taking the
hand Of the rebelliOus big
brother (the United States)
and that of the mother Eng
land), place them in each
others grasp, thus reuniting
the then happy family that
should never have known sepa-
ration"
The words in parenthesis are
mine.
So far as is known, Mr.. Car
negie made no effort to hide the
fact that he was an Anglophile.
He was proud Of it.
Pressure Scented
The foregoing two quotations
suffice to illustrate my point
apropos Mr.. Carnegie's beliefs,
hopes and prophecies.
It was Representative George

sets, who introduced the bill in
Congress designed to cause an
investigation Of the various Car
negie Trusts, nine in number,
three Of which are the Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement
Of Teaching, the Carnegie Endow-
ment for International Peace and
Carnegie Corporation Of New
York. The total of the original
Andrew Carnegie endowments to
the nine Carnegie Trusts was
about $235, 100000.
BY direct reference and by in
timations, Representative Tink-
ham, in a speech on the floor Of
the House. established that GER
tain portion Of the American peo-
pie hold belief that the Carnegie
Endowment for In er n a tional
Peace, the Carnegie Foundation
for the Advancement of Teaching
and other such endowments,
foundations, associations and or
ganizations are in a gigantic con-
spiracy to force the people of the
United States into agreement for
this nation to join either the Per-
manent Court of International
Justice Of the League Of Nations
or the League itself.
Tinkham indicated that DR..
Nicholas Murray Butler, of Colum-
bia University. is a leader in the
movement. and classified that edu-
Gator as "Seditious and disloyal." :"
He traced the activities of the en-.
dowment for peace. and charged
that millions upon millions of dol
lars have been spent by the vari-
Gus Carnegie trusts in undermin-
ing Americas national spirit (de-

Hello, folks! Maybe you re-
member me as a novice at column
conducting when I was in Wash
ington last summer. 1t was then
that Stanley Bigelow indicted me
into the art, and let me run his
column for one day. Evidently he
can stand a good deal of punish
ment.
I was scared stiff then, but feel
q bit more confident now. It Is a
pleasure to be back with you, par
ticularly at this time, with the
"new deal" in the air. Having
been privileged to do my small
share during the campaign, I feel
especially happy that I was able
to witness the Inauguration of
President Roosevelt.
But I am not supposed to write
about anything but radio. That's
q cruel restriction, as I wished to
say so much in appreciation of
your kindness to me during my
stay here last summer Four
shows a day seemed a pleasure
then, and the five 1 have been
doing this week are just as much
fun.
I'm beginning to feel, as this
column goes on, or rather as it
doesn't, that my confidence in my
ability to complete one was a bit
premature. Maybe I'll have to
adopt some of the suggestions
Stanley Bigelow offered. He in
sisted that radio fans would like
to know some of my likes and dis
likes in radio.

Little Towns Changing

Mondays vote in the little towns of the state showed remarkable reversal of opin- ion in SO many of them. that it should be clear to the average voter that the old-time party lines are slowly crumbling It was pleasing for the democratic party to place in it's list number of towns that for many years were regarded as republican strong holds. While the democrats lost a few themselves their gains more than offset their losses.
 It is encouraging in view of the fact that the state election is only year away that the trend right now seems to be democratic. Of course, there can be more changes in the coming thirteen months, but the chances are, on present indications, that the democrats will hold what they now have and perhaps extend their power further in the state departments and also in Congress, Don't forget there is q senatorial election coming in 1894 towards which democrats are look ing with rather eager eyes,
 We have never placed an awful lot of confidence in the small town elections as barometer of what might happen in elections following them. It's something like the Maine cry of former years. Even that has lost it's punch of recent years We have no more right to claim a sweeping democratic victory, we suppose, but in view of the fact that Connecticut was so strongly republican for years any changes now must be regarded as highly significant. They constitute sort of mental unrest among the voters It means that machine politics is losing caste, It means that the independent spirit of the democratic party is meeting with favor All of which is, as we say, highly encouraging.

Seadrones

It would be romantic way for Uncle Sam to spend a little more money that seadrome project put up to the government after futile effort to interest private capital. There would be five huge landing bases strung across the Atlantic from the United States to Europe, for the use of sea-going aircraft. Anchored to the bottom by strong chains, their huge platforms would sway gently with the waves, looking more like fixed docks than floating rafts. There would be ample space on them for any air plane to land. with facilities for repairing and refuelling There would be hotel quarters, too, for flyers and air passengers.
 Before long, no doubt. the Atlantic will be bridged in this way. Many engineers re- gard the plan as practical, The question is whether it would be premature at this time, and whether it is a suitable part of public works program financed by the government Such artificial islands in the sea might be used more as summer resorts than air sta- tons. They would be watering places, v sure enough. with Water water every whcre,' but probably without the Ancient Mariners handicap of not drop to drink.

Noise

Our cities are twice as noisy as they ought to be, says Dr Vern o. Knudsen. California acoustics expert. A normal and exeusable noise rate. by his system. would be 30. He rates New York at 55, Los Angeles 60, Chicago 65, and other cities scattered in be- tween these limits. Street cars, railroads motor vehicles, loudspeakers and other racket producers contribute in varying de- grees. What of it Just this, Americans. says Dr Knudsen, are paying in shortened tenure of life. lowered mental faculties and reduced efficiency, for the noise amid which they work and live.
 One can be drunk on noise. Noise causes injury to the ear drums, disturbs di- gsstion and gives high blood pressure. It is one of the causes of gangsters, Records show that most automobile accidents occur at noisy intersections" He doesn't say any thing about noise within doors. There is too much of that, too - especially the radio baring and the whole family talking at once. Probably the most devastating noise of all is a social tea riot. with everybody struggling to make himself heard above the din.

director of power development at the Shoals. have been computed on conservative basis to cover all the costs of furnishing the serv- ice. including operation. maintenance, depre- eiation and taxes. In addition. we have made provision for interest and retirement. although such provision is not required by the Tennessee Valley Authority act" It is easy to see how far-reaehing the effects of this experiment might be. If the plant at Muscle Shoals operating under precisely the same financial conditions as a private utility might operate, proves able to sell electricity for half the rate the private utilities charge. the general public is likely to get new atti- tude toward utility rates in general. It isn't hard to see why the power trust" fought the Muscle Shoals project so bitterly.

How'd you like to go hunting milanistic mutants some time this fall1 It's ok. with us if you do and 1t will also be so with the state board of fisheries and game. For it seems that milanistic mutants are nothing more than dark pheasants. There are going to be some new rules this season as regards hunting birds on property of licensed game breeders. For example, it is rumored that the proposed changes will allow taking of birds of both sexes. A bigger bag is also among the inducements not to mention longer season. all of which should interest those hunters who have been complaining about these very things of recent years. The dark pheasant and also the Reeves pheasant is not released by the state board. It has concentrated its efforts in the propagation of the ng-neek species. However, various breeders in the state have had considerable success of recent years The last session of the Legislature provided for the hunting of pheasants bred or propagated on private land for such purposes. It may be recalled that there was some talk about such private pre- serves endangerng public shooting lands.

The candidacy of Joseph V. Mckee in New York city is regarded in varying de- grees in the hinterlands. For example a good many people right here in Waterbury don't think that he has chance to be elected They still place their confidence in the Tammany machine to pile up too many votes for even such a popular candidate, as Mckee undoubtedly is. to overcome. We're not so sure about that. Remember how Mckee drew lot of votes year ago when his name was written in on the ballots in so many various forms' That showed pretty clearly how New York regarded him. And with Tammany's candidate Mayor O'Brien losing ground daily, we can't help thinking that the Mckee candidacy right now is the strongest of the three.
