It is perhaps unfortunate that the first real opportunity Connecticut has had oi authorizing a permanent state building at the Springfield Exposition Fair Grounds finds the state of the exchequer in sorry state. Connecticut should have seized her opportunity of adding her name to the other New England states which have permanent homes at this great fair. That opportunity was afforded a number of years ago, but turned down summarlly as we recalled it. We'd like to see a Connectl- cut building at the Eastern States Expo- sition We wouldn't be surprised to hear the agriculture committee of the Legisla- ture had reported favorably on the bill proposing one at to-day's hearing. Funds may be a hindrance, unless there is some excellent suggestion as to ways and means of financing the structure in time for the 1885 event.

Washington, March 22.---It is not being shouted from the housetops, but Herr Hitler's bombshell announcing rearma. ment for Germany threw the presidents foreign affairs ad- visers into two distinct camps.
 Right after the Hitler bomb burst, General Douglas MacAr- thur went over to the White House and acted as spokesman for one camp. What he said, in effect, was:
 "Nothing is going to stop Germany from rearming. Cer- tainly no diplomatic note sent by us will. This is European problem and our cue is to stay out"
 Another White House Confer ence was held with Secretary Of State Hull and Norman Davis, itinerant ambassador for disarm- ament, as chief spokesmen.
 Davis leaned toward some form of American protest to Germany. He felt that this was justified under the German American peace pact by which Germany promised the United States to adhere to the disarma- ment provisions of the Ver- sailles Treaty. These are the provisions which Hitler scattered to the winds.
 Davis also believed that ROOse. welt should show Europe that the ! United States was lining up definitely with its former Allies France and Britain. Secretary Hull was inclined to agree with him.

We were glad to read that Governor Wilbur l.. Cross is going to confer with chief executives of six other states on milk control It has become apparent of recent months that this is problem both vexing and difficult of solution. Our milk control board has been subjected to much criticism since it's creation two years ago. We don't feel that all of it was de- served. But we do feel that Connecticut, like all other states where milk is a prob- lem, has much to learn. Frequent con,- parisons of troubles will certainly aid in restoring peace and making contented cow owners.

and he has given rotoriously. bad advice.
 His chief handicap has been that of optimism. Like Herbert Hoover with prosperity-he saw disarmament perpetually around the corner. The wish was father to the thought.
 As a result, State Department leaders were not at all prepared for the recent blows Hitler dealt disarmament. The Army and Navy have been much bet. ter posted.
 Cordell Hull, due to his close friendship with Davis--they are both charming Tennessee gen. tlemen--accepted his advice. Mr sdHull also is 8 great idealist, ar Woodrow Wilson believer in CO., operation with other nations. He leans towar dthe idea that tho British are our natural friends, will help us in the. Far East, that we should give them moral. perhaps material support.
 DIPLOMATIC CHESS BOARD
 Whichever view triumphs, it will have to win out on the most complicated and jumbled chess board on which the American diplomatic game was ever played.
 It Is a chess board on which Russia has become one of the principal pawns. Her vast breath of territory stretches some 5000 miles from Poland to Japan. And on both sides Japan and her two allies, Germany and Poland, stand ready to bitc off large and luscious mouth- fuls.
 Japan sees the minerals and raw materials of Siberia making her independent of the outside world. Poland and Germany see the Russian Ukraine as n corridor which would give them an outlet on the Black Sea, full fill Bismark's dream of a Ger many stretching from Hamburg to Asia Minor.
 Hitler has been working on the same policy. In recent se- cret conversations with the Bri. tish ambassador in Berlin he has been all too lucid on tue point thath Germany did not want colonies across the seas. She wanted to expend in Europe.
 The Ukrainc-with the %. operation of PoIand--offcrs the easiest outlet.

DIPLOMATS VS MILITARY

All this emphasized more than ever the split which is increas- ing between the State Depart- ment and military-naval officers in regard to major foreign pol- icy. The split is also evident in regard to the Far East.
 The president, though moving cautiously, is inclined to side with the military-naval group.
 This Is what the latter pro- poses:
 A policy of complete isola- ton except in regard to Latin America, Canada, possibly Australia. Speedy retirement from the Philippines and Guam, making Hawaii the first line of Pacific defense. A huge army and navy. No trading with bclligerents dur. the next war-which they cx- Dect soOn-and a proclamation by the president withdrawing the protection of the flag from certain types of Ariteri. can shipping.
 The other group takes It's cue largely from Norman Davis. Am : bassador Davis has been almost the only advisor the adminis- tration has had on disarmament.

Social justice is proposed just because such things as this happen. A French lobster company maintained canning plant on an island in the Indian ocean. It abandoned the plant suddenly and also the employees on the far-away isle with no means of communication and only three months provision.
