landing purposes, but it is not as large as it should be-"
 Commissioner Morris said Flight Inspector Kenneth Ringrose Of the aviation commissioners office vis- ited the Mt. Tobe field last night and approved the facilities now in- stalled for night flying.
 Light Is Suitable
 Commissioner Morris said the powerful light that was noticed by curious Waterburians last night is suitable for any landing field in the country. He said it is two bil- lion, four hundred million candle power light.
 A query to Colonel Clarence Chamberlain today concerning the light brought the information that the inventor of the light, Professor E. w. Haines of Englewood, N. J., was present to demonstrate the light last night. He has given the U. s. government exclusive patent rights to the light It is the most powerful light ever shown before. There is no other light like 1t in the country. It cannot be used coin- nercially, because the patent rights are held by the government. Pro- lessor Haines has given demonstra- tions to government officials and last night gave similar demonstration to officials at the airport. It is op- erated by a gasoline motor affixed to truck. The gas engine opcr- ates the generator and the juice from the generator goes to the car- bon points, which, together with the reflector, creates the powerful beams.
 Visible Thirty Miles
 The light is visible for a distance of 30 miles in any direction. The light will be kept at the Mt. Tobe field as long as Colonel Chamber lain flies here. Commissioner Morris poined to the system in effect at the Meriden airport as an excellent plan for 8 municipally owned airport. He ex- plained that while Meriden actually owns the field it leases the opera ton to 8 private individual. The cost to the city is negligible. He suggests that Waterbury offi- cials look into the Meriden opera tion system.
 Attorney Bronson Flies Attorney Richardson Bronson, counsel for the Waterbury Airport, Inc, flew to North Beach, L. l., with Commissioner Morris yesterday to confer with Colonel William Hooker and Paul Myers, regional and district airport supervisors of the United States bureau of com- merce. Attorney Bronson said both men will come to Waterbury Sum- day noon to discuss with local off, cials the advisability of further de- velopment of the Mt. Tobe field. Attorney Bronson said both rsen are familiar with the field at Mt. Tobe and think 1t an excellent lay- out for flying purposes. He ex- plained that the officials believe Mt. Tobe to be ideally located for the development of aviation in New England.

KING DISSOLVED
 HIS PARLIAMENT
(Continued from Page 1.)

as the result of a frontier incident in December last year my govern ment have exerted themselves to the. utmost. both individually and in cooperation with other states members of the League of Nations, to promote peaceful settlement.
 Regrets Show of Force
 "To my regret (continued the king) these persistent efforts did not avail to prevent a resort to force, and my government have loyalty supported efforts of the League of Nations with view to restoration of peace and achieve ment of an equitable settlement in the spirit of the covenant" (of the league).
 In discussing imperial defense the king said:
 While my government have not ceased and will not cease their con- tinuing efforts to promote limita- ton and reduction by international agreement of all forms of arma- ment, it has been found impossible to postpone further the expansion of the Royal Air Force to a strength which will enable it to fulfill it's vital duties of national and imperial defense: and the pro- gram necessary to give effect to this has now been undertaken"
 The well guarded phrases with which the king referred to the crisis were in keeping with British custom as his ministers are responsible for conduct of policy.
 Somewhat longer than most speeches from the throne, the kings address dealt mainly with matters of imperial, national and domestic affairs. It began with c feeling reference to the popular ac- claim which accompanied the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the kings accession to the throne

Adigrat, Ethiopia, Oct. N-tVia Asmara, Eritrea, Oct. 25)-Although this country has been in touch with the civilizations of Asia Minor, Egypt and Europe since the begin- ming of recorded history, 1t has ab- sorbed less of the culture and hu- manity of civilization than probably any part of the inhabited globe.
 I am constantly amazed at the savagery of the customs and the mode of living.
 Today I encountered one graphic instance when middle aged, bare- footed, bare headed. gray bearded Ethiopian named Adera Chidanu ar- rived at Adigrat after hobbling from the interior for four days-over 70 miles-on 6 home made wooden leg made of a crooked branch of Q thorn hiiah.

 May Have to Act
 They felt that MT. Roosevelt may have to act to curb domestic "big business" interests which publicly have announced their intention to carry on business as usual" with Italy regardless of the league boy colt against Italy and the pres ident's warning.
 In the shadow of such complica- tions, officials here believe that lit tie can be accomplished at this time to limit naval strength. With rela- tions between Italy and Great Bri- tain badly strained; with the Brit ish fleet mobilized in the Mediter- ranean; with Japan demanding na- val parity with Britain and the United States, and with the latter standing resolutely for continuation of the present 5-5-3 ratios, officials see great difficulty in the path of the forth, ''''" conference.
 British Election
 An add o.a.acle is the indica- tion that the British general elec- tion on November IA will be fought around the issue of greater sea, land and air armaments fo rthe nation.
 This government may appoint Ad- miral William H. Stanley, chief of naval operations and a blunt advo- cate of "big navy, as it's chief delegate. In direct contrast to past procedure, the United States is like ly to pack the remainder of its delegation with "big navy" men.

WOOL FROM MILK

Milan, Italy, October 25 = tUP) Synthetic wool from buttermilk is the newest product of Commenda- tore Antonio Ferretti, local scientist. The new wool fibre announced by Ferretti today possesses the same strength and warmth of natural wool, the inventor said. It can be made to retail at 40 percent of the price of natural wool. The first handful of the synthetic product was presented to Premier Mussolini. his most precious possession is his pension book which he carries in a closed pocket suspended from his neck inside his clothes.
 The pension has been paid through the Italian consul at Aduwa for years.

AT DOOR OF JUNEAU PARENTS.

Incorrigible is a hard word. It depraved beyond hope of correction; hopeless, and when hope is gone what is there left? Yet last week in Juneau authorities forced to take a tender youth of nine years away from his parents and turn him over to the Board of Childrens Guardians as incorrigble. Of course the interpretation there is that he is incorrgible under existing environment, for after al there must be still hope for lad of nine, lost people s
 That lad other born incorigibe. Incorrgiblity begins in the home Guide a child in the way he should go and in after years he will not depart from it" is as true today as the day it was written and the responsibility for wayward youth can be laid at but one door-that of the home.
 Are drifting away from the moral premise of right and wrong? It is a question for serious thought when the juvenile authorities in our city find conditions have come to such pass that they have to issue public warnings to parents and youngsters that further misconduct will call for drastic action. In recent months officials report, there has been steady stream of juvenile de- linquents brought before the court Thievery they find, has been rampant and other instances Of delinquency have been revealed Not a pretty picture for small city the size of Juneau, and it should arouse in the breasts of parents appre hension; determination that their children shall not be among those in trouble. If all parents will do their simple duty by their offspring there will be no need for juvenile authorities to become alarmed. The fundamental principles of good citi- aeashp begin wl.b the parent at the cradle and do not end unti maturity. The church and the school do then utmost but if the home is without moral stamina the cause is almost lost. It is high time, when authorities report conditions such as they do, that all parents begin to take an accounting of themselves and their children. It may be smart to have him called "a tough little monkey" but the smart will be in the heart when the authorities are forced to put him away"

Who Violated the Treaty?
(Kansas City Star.)

While the rearmament policy of the present Hitler Government has been generally described as a violation of Germanys obligations under the Treaty of Versailles it is essential to understand the nature of those obligations before the policy may be seen in it's proper perspective or any opinion may reasonably be formed to the effect of such violation upon the peace of Europe
 When Germany defeated in the World War, the Allied governments detsrmined to dismantle the great Germany military machine that had caused their countries such enormous damage. For that purpose they drafted part of the Versailles treaty, which abolished eonscription in Germany and lim- tied Germanys standing army to 900 men. great

ON JEWS

sensational about-face on the part
Of Chancellor Adolf Hitler on the
Jewish question surprised Germany
today.
The Reichsfuehrer ended a bit
ter battle which has been waged
behind the scenes Of the Nazl
drama since the Nuremberg party
conclave by a compromise which
DEGREES, in part, that persons OF
partial or even half Jewish herlt-
age may be citizens.
Another part of the compromise
designed to satisfy both conserVa.
tive forces in his government and
Nazi extremists allows the NaziS
to enforce their ideas Of 100 per
cent Aryanisn" as q qualification
for party membership.
Grandparents No Bar
However, two Jewish grand
parents do not diSqualify per
sons of mixed blood" for German
citizenship.
And many Of the biggest names
in the Army, in the titled ar1s-
tocraey, as well as among the
TitanS Of commerce and industry
will now remain on the rolls Of
German citizenry.
The compromise was revealed
In the regulations Of enforce
ment Of the Nuremberg law
published today.
It revoked the extreme Nazi
demand that only AryanS prov.
ing racial purity" back to 1900
should be regarded as German
citizens.
The law especially StipulateS
that no organization except q
Nazi party can impose higher
standards of Aryanship than
those contained in the law itself.
Protects Many
This was seen as another move
BY Hitler to protect distinguished
Germans Of partial Jewish anceS-
try, It protects them against be.
ing ousted by honor organizations
and other important groups and
allows many Of those ousted to
Tejoin.
Hitler has reserved for himself
the final decision In the making
of exceptions for special cases.
His ministers, Wilhelm Frick,
