Airmail Change
Elates Macarthur.
Who Lauds Flyers
BY the Associated Press.


At least one man In the
Capital feels pretty good about
the sudden cancellation of all
airmail contracts.
He is Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur. Army chief of staff.
He stopped long enough from
a rush of preparation to have
Army aviators become mail
men to say it would give them
many more hours flying time
now cut by the economy law
as well as a chance to show
the Army could do a big job.
Tempering elation with praise
for present airmail pilots, Mac
Arthur said none will lose his
job IF 1 have anything to do
with it." Many are Reserve
officers, he said, and can be
recalled.
THE airmail pilots have
magnificent, unbeatable rec
ord," the general declares.
And have made flights in all
kinds of weather. The Army
and Navy flyers, under orders,
are their only equals, and we
will make every effort to carry
ON their fine traditions"

Change It, Don't Scrap It

To hear Judge Raymond A. Johnson of Manchester, republican sectional leader, talk at the first annual outing of the Re- tail Beer, Wine and Liquor Merchants As sociation Sunday the liquor control act should be tossed out and new one substi- tuted that would permit wide-open sale of all types of intoxicating beverages. For tunately Judge Johnson, who established quite record for himself few years ago , by holding down jobs in three branches of our government, executive, legislative and judicial, doesn't speak for the majority of {. citizens.
 . There are plenty of us who admit the liquor control act has defects that must be corrected next year. But the principles : that actuated the passage of the bill will . be fought for as notly in 1885 as they
 were in 1888. In short Connecticut after . two years experiment isn't going to drop 7 commission control of it's liquor laws for the old method of turning all such work over to the county commissioners. And . certain restrictions are still going to be placed on various types of permittees. Ro- gardless of opinions there are still enough . people desiring such control as does not mean unbrided selling
 There has been so much hullabaoo about .crr liquor laws lately that we are apt to lose sight of one fact. That is just how does the average man feel about it? The greatest number of complaints about the
 laws come from those who are interested
 in ome way in it's application. In other
 words they are in the liquor business,
 either wholesale or retail. Naturally they
 srt going to demand less restrictions and
 more leeway. But it's the buying public
 that in the end must be satisfied no mat
 ter how much pressure well organized
 groups place on our officials. The liquor
 law was invoked for the many and not the
 few. Let us all work for such control as
 guarantees this.

 FAMILY FEUD
 The old feud over the meat packers, the canners, and the big processors which split the AAA into two hostile camps has cropped to the surface again. This time, however, the argu- ment has been more friendly and is being settled within the family.
 It began last month when the brain trust wing of the AAA be- gan a scorching attack on the big processers and distributors.
 Rex Tugwell, speaking at Des Moines, opened fire upon them. He set out to show the farmers who their real enemies were. Hitherto the AAA fight against the processers had been carried on under Marquis of Queensbury rules. But in this speech Tug we'll named names. He brought the fight out into the open.
 Describing the TOW over the canning code, he realized how the big canners had demanded that the AAA license all canners but later appeared before a sena- torial committee against licens- ing.
 "Why this inconsistent and tricky behaviour" asked Dr Tug well. q am not altogether sure. But there are some interesting coincident facts. In the first place, one of the largest of the canners is Libby, McNeil and Libby-whose directorate inter- locks with one of the biggest meat packers, Swift and Com pany. During the year we had a few brushes with the meat pack CTS. And Swift and Company might well have been fearful used against them."
 UPSETTING
 Reading this speech the next morning, Tugwells conservative associates nearly had catfits. Especially agitated was little Chester Davis, administrator of the AAA.
 Since then Davis has been try ing to temper the blasts. He has argued that the best strategy was not 10 provoke the meatpackers, canners ct al. Just at present he is trying to negotiate marketing nfey I1 Inf lyc I can get better results if no one is belligerent.
 And the inside dope Is that for the time being he will have his way. It is significant that the latest speeches of Tugwell and Secretary Wallace have shifted their line of attack. They are "laying off the interests"-fOr a time, at least.
 CAPITOL SHOWERS
 The stretch of lawn that sweeps down on the west side of the capitol building is lacerated with network of earthen trenches. They are not protec- tion against another incendiary attack from the British, but to prevent drought around the capitol.

Passing Right Over Us

Although thousands of Connecticut resi- dents will pass their respects Thursday and Friday of this week to the Junior Birdmen of America. as they wing their way over the state and visit nine cities Waterbury will not be among those on the favored list. And the reason is simply because we are not fortunate enough to boast municipal airport at which the distinguished flyers might land.
 The route lies from Floyd Bonnet air port to Danbury to Torrington to Bristol to Meriden to Hartford, where the first days tour ends. On Friday the flight continues to New Haven to Bridgeport to Norwalk and thence to New York again. Special ceremonies are planned at all the various stops with the principal naturally scheduled for Hartford at the end of the first day. The purpose of the flight is merely to encourage the idea of safe fly ing as expounded through membership in the Junior Birdmen group.
 It is particularly unfortunate that Wa terbury continues to manifest so little in- terest in the air channels, as means of communication with the rest of the world. The time will come, we fully be- lieve, when the city will make earnest eff forts to link itself with other important cities of New England and the eastern sea- board by the air. It may be too late then, however. Now is the time for action. We're convinced that any effort that may have been made in the past to place Wa terbury on the air maps should be renewed to-day with the sincere and complete CO., operation of every city official and citizen of Waterbury.

Political Refugee Papers

One of the unfortunate things about recent American immigration laws and policies has been that they kept this coun- try from living up to it's reputation as "a haven for the persecuted and oppressed of all lands" Not only has it been virtually closed to exiles, but official regulations have often made it necessary to send back to lands of persecution people who had already reached this country.
 There will continue to be some cases of this kind, but they will be greatly reduced under the immigration act of June 3. This measure provides that aliens who have fled to America from religious or politi- cal persecution and who were living here before June l, 1883, may remain by de- claring themselves, even if their entry was val illegal, providing they have no police record of wrong behavior since their ar rival. They will thus become eligible for citizenship. Without such registration, they are still subject to deportation. Many no doubt, will take advantage of this op- portunity.

Patriotic Horse Racing


 Little by little the world is finding that the Russians are people, after all, and do most of the things people elsewhere do, only with astonishing little differences which make them news to outsiders. Thus we find, the Russians enjoy horse racing They bet on their favorite horses and every now and then some one wins some money.
 The difference between the racing and betting in capitalistic countries and in Russia is that the Soviet government owns the tracks, the horses, all the stables and pari-mutuels. It is said that the gov ernment find it is paying venture, which is all right if the people enjoy themselves. Winnings are paid from the Russian treas ury and track earnings go into the treas ury. Apparently more goes in than comes out.
 One feature is curiously familiar. The theory is cherished and even cultivated that the racing is all purely utilitarian Its purpose is wholly to promote the breeding of fine horses. Russian race tracks are we'll posted with signs which say, in effect, Without horses we can't work" or Don't forget that we need hors- es for defense as well as work That seems to put the whole thing on the basis of patriotism.
