Talking direct with ambassadors

Keeping Busy

An editor commenting on the fact that 2,000,000 city people have gone back to the country since the depression began isn't much impressed by it as an economic fact. He thinks that, with farming the way it is, they can't do much there. They can do one very important thing, at least. They can keep busy. And in most cases, that may be as valuable as the partial living they can make out of their agricultural efforts, In the soil itself to man who has been con- fined in the city's great idle house. there is healing. Renewed contact with Mother Earth is good. It is joy to plant seeds and watch things grow and help them to fruitfulness. It is satisfaction to bring fuel from the wood lot, to tend the farm animals to watch the weather, to work with Nature and find her friendly.
 It is great thing, too, in the city, for an unemployed man to have a yard of his own to butter around in. cellar with furnace to take care of and work bench for odd jobs. Great are the merits of an owned home, especially in times like these, even though it has mortgage. Real estate still has its merits. Government bonds may look better; but you cant really love a govern ment bond, because you cant do anything to it, or for it.

Why Elect Governors?

We often wonder why Connecticut
 bothers with eleetinga governor at all. Ger
 tainly in the last few years that office has 5 been the objective of ell-planned bar rage. Of course if axepublican was occupy ing the office there would have been no ef- ' fort to emaseuiate his powers. But it so . happens that democrat is governor and = will remain SO for the coming two year. s period That is an occurrence that is z singularly irksome to the former dominant party in the state. Every effort is. made : Co push him in the background or to make his position a far from enviable one.
 A When some sort of veto power was z asked two years ago the request was treated swn.with scorn. This year one might imagine ~ that there would be bit more respect Flor the democrat who was popular and pow
 erful enough to get himself reelected to office
 in a normally republican state. Quite the
 opposite seems to be the case, judging from
 all that is taking place in Hartford these
 days. Last week typical example of g.
 0. p. arrogance was seen in legislative bill
 seeking creation of commission to study
 the tax situation in the state.
 Normally that measure would receive
 support without any thought of partisan
 ship. But it so happens that the measure,
 introduced at republican behest, is violently sspartisan in nature. It stipulates that the commission shall be composed of five mem
 bers. One of these will be named by the
 governor two by the lieutenant-go
 as presiding officer of the Senate, and two by e the speaker of the House. Both these of-
 fieials are republicans. Of course on the other hand the governor IS democratic But
 isn't the governor the head of our state gov ss,ci isment2 If the voters who put him in . office in lo30 and returned him last fall . didn't intend him to be the actual head of q the state government they would have sig E nifcd so.
 Y The idea of passing gubernatorlal auth ' o.ity on to legislative officials has no eoun- ' tcrpart in any other state of the Union. ! Connecticut is too prone to ignore its chief
 executive and to give to minor officials pow w els to which their position does not entltle sthem You don't find New York MasSa- \ Echusetts or other states letting legislative off, Nfieers perform duties which are primarily z those of the governor. Of course that is -more or less caused by the fact that the re- @publcans have had too much control in this Rstate over long period of years, Now that &thc democrats have become more than mere wminority let us hope for some sort of @change for the better In the meantime let aus also hope that any efforts to create com Emissions with the house and senate heads do- Hing that be confined to the waste-paper gbasket.

Our Daily Washington Letter
Spells System BObs Up Again
BY RODNEY BUTCHER

of the usual estimate--and has said that the party naturally would desire to put its own people "in all positions of authority"
 Probably there is more worry in the department of commerce than anywhere else. Roosevelt has in- timated that he would pay espe- cial attention to that department in his plans for economy and reorgan- ization. It is full of loyal Hoover men-although some are not now as loyal as they were-who signed up with "the chief" in his eight years as secretary of commerce and worked as hard as they could for him in the last campaign.
 A glance at the "spoilmen's $ handbook"-that long list of posi- tions not under civil service, espe- cially prepared for democratic sen- ators-shows that there are more than 50 commerce department jobs paying $5000 a year or better in Washington and about 70 paying $5000 and up as commercial at- taches and trade commissioners in foreign lands.
 It also appears that MT Hoover has put about 200 commerce de- partment employees under. civil ser- vice who were not formerly 50 pro- tected-and democrats are now casting 0 shy eye in their direc- tion. .....
 The recontruction finance cor poration, incidentally, has more than 100 employees earning $5000 or more. And a $6000 job in these days has Q widespread attraction.

Art Crusade

An Italian newspaper, the Gazetta del Popolo of Turin, has started crusade in which many an American would gladly join. It has set staff writer and cartoonist to battle against contemporary statues and monuments all over Italy. The stuff is no worse than that of other countries they say, but it is bad enough to need corree- ton. There are certain famous monuments which they dare not crticise. but the theory is that if peoples eyes are opened to the inartistic nature of minor atrocities, their eyes will remain open They are riducling the 'five-legged horses, the two-headed eagles, the frumpy-wnged victories and other geological and artistic monstrosities which seem to be modern art. They pro- test against the false cassicism which puts goddess right out of the Had beside World War soldiers. They would like to have the symbolism true the sculptured figures life like as we'll as beautiful.
 If the movement takes in Italy, it may spread to our own fair land where some fine work is being done, but where a lot of rubbish has got itself set up as art. The movement might go still further and make war on the inartistic in house design, furnl- ture and dress. There has been a recent zeal for novelty which has created ugliness and called it good just because it was new
