po the stars change color2

Q. Do the stars change cobra
 A. The U. s. naval observatory says that the stars twinkle and cause people to think that they see them change colors. There is . slight change due to atmospheric condi- tions surrounding the observer, but most of the assumed change is psy- chological.
 e. Name the Turkish ambassa- dor to the United States and give his official title.
 A. Mehmet Munir Ertegun is the ambassador extraordinary and plen- ipotentiary of Turkey to the United States.
 e. How did the turkey get it's name?
 A. The earliest known use of the name as applied to the American bird was in 1855. Many curious theories have been advanced to ac- count for 1t. One writer suggested that the name may have been adopted becatfse of the supposed re- semblance between the adornments of the fowls head and the Turkish fez. Another possible source of the named is the birds call note-turk, turk, turk. Stin another theory is that the name arose from the fact that turkeys were first handled by Jewish merchants who called the

rank today with the best both in equip ment and service.
 While Dr. HenneSsey did not make any appeal for legislative aid, his talk being solely devoted to the purpose of the sev- eral Sanatoria and the means by which they so ably combat the dread disease, inference may be drawn from his state ment on the waiting lists. And that fact has been made especially pertinent right here in Waterbury where for some time the isolation hospital was maintained as waiting station. Funds forced it's dis to the situation if they are living up to their office. We suggest that if they do not regard the institutions of our state as important enough to warrant atten- tion, they should inspect them of their own initiative and ascertain the true facts.

Statute administration of relief prob lems was cited as one of the reasons why Connecticut will lead the nation in com ing out from under the effects of the years of the depression, said Welfare Commissioner Frederic c. Walcott re- gently. This is good news to read. It is also a bit encouraging to hear it, for after rading James w. Fitzpatricks col- un1n on this page few short nights ago we were led to believe that there were opponents of statutory means to bring about any such result. A representa- tive of the National Association of Man ufacurers didn't believe in dispensing relief by the law only through actual need and for the individual case. Commis- Sioner Walcott believes Connecticut by good administration of relief laws can lead the nation in the way back to nor malcy. Which shows that there are two sides to the question.

Twist And Turr,

So beSmeared with heavy coating of that stuff people oftentimes put on their cellar walls that he can't see himself in his own mirror the editor of the Water bury Republican draws only one conclu- sion from our remarks in recent edition about the cityS sound financial rating, as evidenced by its latest temporary loan. AS everybody should know by this time J. Leary through New York banks, the interest rate the city will pay to be only .45 of one per cent.
 The Waterbury Democrat remarked that in placing the loan at such an ex- tremely low interest rate MT. Leary had once again applied the calcimine brush to his constant and carping critics, the twin journals of Leavenworth street. The editor of the morning side of the publi- cation wraps the meaning so that it fits his own thoughts Fortunately his thoughts are pretty much his own and not shared by too many in this city. His deliberate charge that Waterbury's con- troller colors his financial reports is simply a return to the days of September and early October when mud was in the air.
 Now if the disciple of MT. Freud had come down to earth and argued with us on our spelling of calcimine, we might have blushed a bit, but seeing as how the gen. tleman does not realize when the brush has been applied to him we see no reason for informing him of his grotesque and ghostlike appearance. As to talking in his sleep, the editor will make thorough investigation of the same, inquiring of the one person who might hold the answer. It will be forthcoming the next time Controller Leary deftly sloshes that paint brush on gimlet-eyes that fail to recognize the fine things that Mayor Hayes, Controller Leary, and others are doing for Waterbury,

War Horrible? This. Soldier Enjoyed It
 BY BRUCE CAPTION

The ordinary war novel is a dark and depressing affair, full of blood and fifth and weariness and pain in which, of course, it is simply presenting truthful picture. But there was another side to the war, for some soldiers at least, and an anonymous author describes it in novel entitled "A Man in Arms"
 The hero of this book, an Ameri- can army officer, did not find war depressing and wearisome; on the contrary, he had a high old time in it, and although he finally came home crippled by a bit of shell, he had had his fun while it lasted and he looks back on it fondly.
 For war. to this chap. meant wine and women, in almost unlimited quantities. Furthermore, he had the kind of temperament which made him actually welcome his oc- casional interludes of frontline fight ing. Perhaps the fact that most of the time he had safe staff job helped.
 Anyway. he had his fun - with French dancers, Italian countesses. American nurses and assorted what's-its of all nations; with gin, vodka, rum, chianti. champagne. eosnae. and all the other drinks.
 The lid was off; anything gees. for Q soldier. the pace of life Is stepped up prodiglously, and you can make the whlFl Q merry one If you have the stomach for it.
 And it's not bad Idea for thls viewpoint to be presented. For after all is said about the horror Of var - and it has never been exaggerated - the fact remains that lor some men the whole business is fun, excitement, release from boFes dom.

Procure a Copy

State legislators who are at all inter- ested in the inspection of our humane institutions now being conducted by Gov ernor Wilbur L. Cross and special com mission appointed for that sole purpose should procure copy of the radio ad- dress of pr. James J. HennesSey which ap- pears in today's Democrat. It was de- livered Thursday afternoon at 1 o'clock from WATR under the auspices of the Waterbury Anti-TuberculosiS League. It dealt mainly with the workings of our state tuberculosis sanatoria, Dr. Hen- neSsey being a member of the staff Of Cedarcrest in Hartford.
 However, Dr. Hennessey pointed out at one point in his address that situation which existed in 1914 twent-one years ago, still exists today. In short, though our sanatoria have undergone many changes for the better and today the treatment of tuberculosis in this state places 1t at the head of all states, there is room for improvement. The situation which existed back in 1914 and which we still have today is the fact that there are waiting lists at all the sanatorla which cater solely to adult patients. That fact must have been known to almost every. body. interested or not.
 The State Tuberculosis Commissioner has constantly in its biennial reports and in between times pointed out the need Of expansion Of existing facilities and in. crease in the number of sanatorla. It is just one 0f several points that are ever coming e. the fore when institutional ex, pansl0f is mentioned, Tine tuberculosis sanaioFla are ia need of expansion, inl' |s hardly the word, foF they

Governor Wilbur L. Cross thinks he is the most non-partisan governor that this state has had in long time. He did ex- press himself, though, as manifesting leaning" towards the democratic party. This remark came in an address to the American and Connecticut Pomological Societies recently gathered in session in Hartford. One section of his talk was devoted to cider and it's effect. The gov- ernor declared that wine drunkard will commit murder with knife; the whiSkey drunkard with gun; and the cider drunkard with an axe.

of the poor, than in the gilded nurs- cry of the rich.
 Admitting per SC, that punish ment is the cure for crime, which is fallacious, and that prisons are the safeguards of society; instead of breeding places for greater crimes, admitting that there is no other way to protect society than by shut ting up criminals-if these theories are correct and we must segregate offenders against the law inside granite walls, and hideous cells; then let judges, prosecuting attor- neys, sheriffs. police, and legislators; to say nothing of governors or juries; join hands and demand that legislation be framed to take the prisons of the country, state and federal OUT OF POLITICS. Also if criminals who are human beings, sinners or whatever they may be called, BE FED PROPERLY in- stead of half starved, because it is a well known fact to those who are in touch with prisons, such as so- cial workers, Salvation Army lead- CTS, and all who contact the insides of prisons, that great percentage if not all of prison breaks and out breaks are caused by hunger; and that the prisoners have no way of calling public attention to their plight but by hunger strikes that are sure to result in death to some of their number: but can any worse plight be imagined than of men who are ill-fed at the behest of the policies of grating politicians, who are answerable to no one but to those who placed them in power; who again are often ignorant of the conditions behind walls, upon whose gates might be inscribed: Abandon all hope all ye who enter here;;" These conditions do not maintain in all prisons, for many are all that such institutions should be; man. aged by humane wardens, but it is 8 safe bet, that if all prisons were taken out of politics and placed under civil service regulations, that there would no longer be headlines in the newspapers of prison breaks or outbreaks.

 GaSay

W0tO4 bb4Js SO4AAAs Editor, Waterbury Democrat:
 At frequent intervals in the news of our day crop up stories of prison breaks, prisoners or prison guards shot, or posseS-a body of men sum- moned by 8 sheriff to assist in the capture of escaped prisoners, whose hands are against all men and the hands of all men against them. The orders to the hunters of the fugi- tives are: Shoot 'em on sight. In days not SO far back bloodhounds were used, and are still in some states to trail the hunted. Naturally the question arises in the minds of men who do not believe in murder by the law or individual, Why is all this?" The answer might be, "Because there is something rotten in Denmark" Something wrong in our social fabric; 8 common lack of understanding of so-called crime. It is admitted by the philosophers that we are all potential criminals, that given a certain environment and temptation all will react to the given circumstances, and do some thing that will place them in the criminal class.
 Fiction is full of stories of men who were innocent, who have been sentenced to jails and BastileS, and strange as these stories are they are outdone by actual cases, for always in the last analysis truth is stranger than fiction. An old saying says that the prisons and cemeteries are full of the mistakes of lawyers and doctors, and there is no doubt that this saying is founded on proven truth. No doubt there are men nows in prisons all over the world who are innocent, although courts, police, and judges say it is impossible for an innocent man to be sent to serve time behind grey walls. All are human and all liable to error, and few care to admit the truism. Another saying is to the eff feet that the law protects those who have money to hire 8 lawyer, and is it not 8 fact, that very few rich men ever land in prison?
 One might turn for an illustra- ton in fiction to Monte Cristo, or to Les Miserables, one by Dumas, the other by Hugo; but the cases in truth can be found in old news paper files. So that it might be said that the veil between the good and evil is very thin, and the shadow of prison walls hovers over the cradle of the new born child, but the shadow is darker in the hovel

Distribution Is Puzzle

"We must move," says Alfred P. Sloan, IT,, president of General Motors, toward a soundly based and widely distributed economic well-being. This is the theory of plenty as distinguished from the theory of scarcity which has dominated our recent economic thinking policies" The assembled manufacturers to whom MT. Sloan made this speech applauded heartily, and it is hard to see how they could have done anything else. Coming out for economic well-being is something like coming out for home, mother, and the American flag; that is, you'd have to hunt long way to find someone who didn't want it.
 But the means of getting it aren't quite so simple If American industry is really going to take MT. Sloan's advice and pro- ceed on the theory of plenty, this is the biggest news that has broken in this country since Paul Revere got off his horse. For this theory is one that we have never yet followed. Our indus trialists, by and large, are about the most completely able set of men at their respective jobs that the business world has ever seen. The science of taking raw materials and transforming them into things that people can wear or eat or use in other ways has been brought, under their guidance, to something very like perfection.
 Why, then, do we have occasional per- iods in which great many people do not have enough to eat or enough to wear or enough things like autos and refrigera- tors and bridge lamps? It isn't because our industry cannot make enough ot these things. It can flood us with them, and the men who run it would like noth- ing better than the chance to do so.
 The trouble rather would seem to be that we don't yet know how to take ad- vantage of our industrial brilliance. Until comparatively recently, it was humanly impossible for the race to produce enough things to go around; and the way Ill which we distribute and consume the things we make still seems to be affected by that out-of-date concept.
 No sensible American can want to see his country follow policies under which production is restricted. We all want more of everything = more food, more houses, more clothing, more this, that and the other thing. But saying that we want this doesn't necessarily mean that we're going to get it - for these things have to be paid for in hard cash, and the men who produce them have to produce them at profit.
 That is what makes Mr. Sloan's declar- ation so important. He bids industry follow the theory of abundance and pro- duce bountifully. Industry has solved the problem of production; now, it would seem, he summons it so solve the prob lem of distribution. That problem can be solved American industrialists have the brain and energy to do it. If they succeed, bright new day will dawn for all Americans.

Ten per cent of our Connecticut farms are unfit for agricultural purposes, so says a recent government report. There is only one thing to be done with such land. Remove it from it's present cate gory and utilize it for some other pur- pose more suitable. And the settlement Administration seems to have that pur- pose in mind. In time all profitless land can be made to serve useful purpose by such tactics.
