If it is a fact that million quarts of milk are bootlegged into this state annu- ally, it is high time that the milk question was strengthened out to the mutual satis- faction of all concerned. By that we mean that everybody from the ultimate consumer, the dealer, and the producer may receive fair deal. If as much milk as that is brought in certainly we can see why producers would complain. How ever, it is up to the producers and deal CTS to get together and work out plan whereby it won't be necessary to bring in low-priced surplus milk. We want Con- necticut farmers to get the benefit, not those from nearby states. There is no need, we should say offhand, to import such vast quantities of milk. Naturally our producers would complain. And com- plaints never made for contented cows, you know.

Those Gambling Billions

One of the many useful facts dug up by the federal committee on banking and currency has to do with the "calP' or "street" loan activities of corporations not supposed to be in the banking business. In the year 1929, it has discovered, 20 corporations lent total of $20,527, ,000,- 900 for stock gambling. Chief among them were the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and the Bethlehem Steel Corpor- ation.
 All these billions, of course, were not lent at one time. The total .loans out standing on any day for the 20 corpora tions were less than billion. But the loans were revolving funds and were kept working fast. Standard of New Jersey, giant of the Rockefeller brood, alone made 2O,466 loans aggregating over 17 billions.
 There was profit in it, at the interest rates commanded by the crazy speculation of 1929. Business institutions of many kinds, along with banks in general, throughout the country, were sending their funds to New York to lend "on call" to marginal speculators. No wonder, with so much fuel under the boiler, that the whole outfit blew up. So Congress pro- poses sensibly to confine marginal loans hereafter to Federal Reserve banks, where they can be better controlled, and also puts some restrictions on the bankers themselves.

Former Senator Hiram A. Bingham has never liked the way in which the Roosevelt administration upset the air mail contracts. Smarting under what he termed an injustice he has just come forth with an open rebuke for "Jim" Farley. We don't suppose that the urbane Post master General will feel too bad about it. It's to be expected that ex-Senator Bing- ham, who brides himself on his consider able knowledge of aeronautics, would come out in opposition to this democratic &C., tion. But nobody is going to believe that even the former Connecticut senator thinks that everything was above board in letting the airmail contracts. There is a valiant effort afoot right now to cover up this act of the Hoover administration with the disasters of airmail flying by army aviators. We might lose sight of the first wrong in our sorrow at seeing number of promising army aviators sacrificed in the interest of commercial flying. But we are still conscious of the fact that behind the accusations of Postmaster General Farley and others there is plenty of evidence.

In New York
Rv PAUL HARRISON

New York.-Now that Kim is a full-fedged actor he has indicated that he no longer is jealous of Flush. And when Flush gets back from his long tour with Katharine Cornell the pair will probably take up their friendship where it halted when the spaniel won the coveted role in "The Barretts of Wimpole Street"
 Kim is the Scottie belonging to Guthrie McClintic, producer of the play called "Yellow Jack" And
 Katharine Cornell is Mrs McClint- is in private life. So Kim and Flush used to be pals. It was a sorry day for the stubby-legged pup when Flush went to make his debut on Broadway. And sorrier yet when he heard how the crea- ture had stolen the show by stroll ing over to the right stage box and trying to make friends with the people there-even putting his paws on the rail and wagging his tail franticaily.
 Subsequent events brought no solace to Kim. Because once Flush got his name in the papers, noth- ing could stop him. He learned all the stage tricks, such as seeking an unoccupied section of the stage , to attract attention to himself. He found that every audience has it's quota of dog lovers, and that he al- ways could win a laugh or a tear by a timely cock of an ear, wag of the tail or droop of the head. By this time, Flush has passed
 his 600th performance of "The Barretts of Wimpole Street." and
 has been talked about more than | any stage dog of this generation. He has had a book written about | him, many copies of which he au- tographed with an ink -smudged | paw, and he has been painted, etched and sculptured.
 All that makes a pretty difh- cult precedent for Kim, who has only n small part in "Yel- low Jack" But even the crit-
 ics admit that he is q dog ju-
 veniie of great promise.
 Doggone Discouraging
 Consider, then, the plight of a
 Pekinese ingenue named Gertrude.
 She has had the misfortune to be
 miscast as a spoiled, vile-tempered
 pet in AS Thousands Cheer" She
 is seen ensconced in high chair
 at the dining table, and is defended | by a doting mistress against the | protestations of a husband whom
 Gertrude is supposed to be fond of
 biting. After a good deal of this
 the scene ends with the man bit
 ing the dog. which is news even on | the stage.
 The trouble is that Gertrude is
 an outrageously and obtrusively | friendly dog. Her small tail beats
 an audible tattoo on the shelf of
 the high chair, and when the man
 approaches her with obvious tre-
 pidation and yet determination to
 do her harm, she shivers in delight
 and leans toward him yearningly. ] It is very discouraging. The stage 1 manager even has tried to rifle Ger
 trude into an evil mood just before
 her entrance cue, but all to no
 avail. If a better character actress
 can be found they probably will
 have to give Gertrude notice.
