Among the new highway projects an
nounced up for bid by Commissioner John
"A. Macdonald last week was the long con-
templated cutoff at Pennington. That is
one of nine jobs that will be bid on up un-
til June 26. The new Pennington cutoff
will be boon to Waterbury motorists 60
ing to and from Hartford, as it enables them
to avoid the center of that town. The route
as now planned passes to the south of Farm
ington center. 1t begins at Corbins Corner
in West Hartford and ends at the junction
of the Pennington Bristol road with the
College Highway. This enables the Water
bury motorist who uses the convenient
Thomaston- Bristol route to cut off at least
more miles on the already shortened route.
This cutoff has been planned for good
many years and was encouraged by residents
of Pennington who didn't like to see their
main street SO congested. 1t will involve
considerable expenses as a complete new
right of way had to be bought by the state.
This necessitates more work than usually
is necessary in laying out a road, as there
will be no old road for a foundation or
guide to follow. However. the cutoff is we'll
worth the effort it may require in the build
ing.

Washington-Vast as is the
scope of the administrations plan
of industrial control, 1t is only q
vital section of a large, integrated
program which contains many
other timbers designed as pillars
and struts of economic reconstruc-
ton.
The structure has been built
piece by piece, but now appears in
complete form, the Complementary

falling and interlocking in q legis-
lated offensive ram the like of

in this world.
There is definite attack, from
one or more angles, toward each
of the detectives which have long
been enumerated by Americas
"best minds" as essentials to bust
ness recovery-increased prchasing
power among all classes, immedi-
ate stimulation Of activity, higher
commodity prices, immediate and
long run relief from the burden
of debt, confidence on the part of
business and the public, plus price
stability for both industry and ag-
riculture.
Farms Must Be Helped
The farm relief act, as drastic
in it's field, Is not only aimed at an
improvement in the condition Of
the farmer but is also based on the
fact that the rest of the country
cannot enjoy sound prosperity
while agriculture Is in slump.
The economic well-being of the
country as q whole Is bound up in
the governments attempt to re-
store u price balance between the
products of agriculture and the
products of industry.
Several immediate stimulants to
employment. purchasing power and
production have been provided in
addition to the provisions for
shorter working hours and higher
wages.

It's a Long Way OFF

According to the political scrivener of the
Hartford Times, His Honor Mayor Frank
Hayes may be the next candidate for COVER
nor on the democratic ticket. Of course
there won't be any nominations until 1884
and there's no telling whether or not Gov
rrnor Wilbur L. Cross will resign his title
as head of the party in Connecticut. The
way for Mayor Hayes to step into the gov
errors shoes is proposed by advancing the
governor as candidate for u. S. Senator to
oppose Senator Frederic c. Walcott of
Norfolk. Like most political predictions
there is plenty of speculation in this latest
one.
Waterbury in general would be over
whelmingly behind Mayor Hayes cam
didacy. even though the Times does init
mate that it would be the result of a factional
disturbance in democratic circles regarding
Mayor Hayes as the most popular individ-
ual in the old guard camp We may be
wrong in saying this, but we do think that
if nominated Mayor Hayes would be prac-
tically a unanimous choice of the state con-
vention. However, in the event that the gov
ernor does not decide to seek the Senate It
is presumed that he will again run for gov
ernor or possibly attempt to name his
successor by guiding the nomination.
Why not in that event endorse our mayor
for the Senate. Certainly it is not presump-
tuous on the part of Waterbury to look
toward such a high honor. Certainly it is
not too much for us to designate Mayor
Hayes as the recipient of it. We don't
know what Mayor Hayes attitude towards
all these speeulatons are. He doubtless isn't
interested in any of them just at present.
inasmuch as mayoralty contest looms in
Waterbury this fall He will doubtless seek
rejection. but no matter what the outcome
he is available for promotion when 1884
rolls around and democrats are seeking to
tighten their hold on this state.

Imitation, Real and Imaginary

There has been, as yet no positive intla-
ton in this country. Such price advances
as are considered inflationary have come
mainly from the expectation of initiation.
There has been some effect. too. from going
off the gold standard, the fall of the dollar
starting in international exchanges and
working back slowly into domestic bust
ness. The stock market, as usual, has
discounted the future. On the whole. our
moderate degree of initiation to-day is more
imaginary than real.
Positive initiation may begin at any time,
with administration moves at Washington
authorized by the special session of con-
gress The elaborate machinery for it in
cludes expansion of Federal Reserve bank
credit by as much as $3,000,000,000
through business loans; the possible issu-
ance of an equal amount in unsecured bank
notes from the federal treasury; possible re-
duetion of the gold content of the dollar
up to SO per cent, virtually doubling the
number of dollars; acceptance of as much as
S200,000,000 of foreign silver in debt pay
ments paying out 100000, 900 of govern
ment funds in direct relief work; spending
vast sums in public works; issuing $1,000
000 900 in federal bonds, to exchange for
home mortgages; direct expenditure of mil
lions on the Tennessee Valley project Al
together, the possible degree of inflationary
loans, expenditures and direct currency de-
probation might run into many billions.
The great bulk of this potential initiation,
however while authorized by congress, is
left to the presidents discretion. He is ex-
peeted to use only as much of it as may be
necessary to improve prices, revive business,
get people back to work and case the posi-

There is good prospect that
many cities an dtowns will benefit
from the standards which this COM
mission may formulate regarding
the administration of welfare aid
who may not come within the juris-
diction of the state act granting
them state endorsement of their
bonds. Communities whose credit
is good will probably not go under
the states thumb as regards un-
employment relief methods and yet
be glad to adopt voluntarily some
the commission may draft. They
will be wise to do so. In the UNI
happy event that a municipality Is
nuable to meet its obligations and
makes use of the bankruptcy pro-
visions of the relief act, there Is
at least this much comfort in the
situation: that such a city will
come under the guidance of q cap

much to do with the naming of

RALEIGH. June 19.-North
Carolina will be able to buy the
cement needed for the new SILL
100000 highway building program
to begin July 1, at from 25 to 50
cents a barrel less. than present
market prices as the result of a
contract signed last summer by
the Division of Purchase and Con-
tract with the cement manufac-
turers for 100000 barrels of &C.
ment when prices were the lowest
they have ever been.
North Carolina is the only state
in the United States that now has
such a contract and which was far
sighted enough to look ahead and
see the wisdom of taking advan'
tage of the low prices that pre-
vailed last summer, according to
w. Z. Belts, in charge of the pur-
chasing division of the state high
wav commission. This cement is
furnished by the state highway
commission TO the contractors at
cost, so that the total cost of the
projects is held down by whatever
the saving is.
'If the contractors had to buy
their cement on the open market
and had to pay 40 cents a barrel
more for it. the cost of construc-
ton would be increased by that
