GOVERNOR NOTIFIED

Word of the allotment of EZRA funds was received at the Governor s office today, and it was made clear this would be the only funds avail able for relief from EZRA this win ter. The $150,000 allotment is only from 25 to 30 per cent of the amount allowed the Territory last winter to sarry On relief work. The amount, it was stated, must do to handle all the work among natives and whites from now until the seasonal work be- gins next spring. Last winter be- tween 2,400 and 2,5O0 cases were cared for and now 2,300 are regis tered for relief although no funds have been available for carrying on the work.
 In the message to the Governors office, it was pointed out the money had been set aside but had not ac- tually be forwarded, thus it may be some little time before the funds are available here.
 Whether further funds may be made available from some other sources was not disclosed from Wash ington.

Two Ways To Do 1t

The process of balancing the state bud
get remains in the Legislature in its clos
ing hours. With just about two solid
weeks of debates, caucuses, ETC., left in the
1895 session the hardest task of all faces
the Connecticut lawmakers. And it IS
doubly hard because there are many
problems still facing the body of major
Importance. If all the matters are taken
care of that should be, there should De
some healthy appropriations made for
capital OUTLAWS. All of which is trouble
some to say the least.
The old age pensions will be amply
taken care of by special personal tax OF
So levied between two age limits. This tax
supplants the former So personal or poll
tax. The general sales tax now under
heavy discussion was calculated to take
care of the millions that were to be di-
yerted to the towns of the state for local
relief purposes, but it is extremely doubt
full if the sales tax as now proposed Will
ever be made into law. incidentally 1t
would seem as if this money could be
raised in more equitable fashion, If it is
to 60 for relief purposes.
There are state institutions to be built.
foremost among them the state hospital
for the Predetermined and the veterans
lIOIIlGs AIlu IL VIC dlC SOll6 w SAPe&AN O~A
institutions we certainly must recognize
the facts that were presented before the
Conlmittee on humane institutions last
week by the superintendent and trustees
of the State Hospital at 4Middetown. We
must expand in this direction, too. All such
projects are expensive and will require
some fancy juggling to have the estimated
revenue of the coming biennium cover
them in addition to the ordinary expenses
0f the state.
~ All of which would seem to indicate
that the entire tax program of the special
Investigating committee would have to be
put into effect or else make-shift pro-
gram involving some of the many items
proposed by these commissions adopted.
If this is done we would suggest that our
Legislators give heed to the cry t hat IS
gradually being heard in many towns and
certainly in all states, namely, reduce the
cost of government. It can be done, If our
legislators and state officials are big
enough to shoulder the responsibility OF
running counter to the opinions entertain
ed by practical politicians. To reduce the
cost of government the unnecessary must

budget balancing program in this state
would be quite complete without a drastic
shake-up in all branches of the govern
ment, designed to make for lower not
cheaper government.

Time Left Yet

There is still time left for those who
have not participated in the annual drive
D Of the Salvation Army or the Visiting
Nurse Association. It is needless to go into
"details to describe the vast amount OF
humanitarian work that these organiza-
stions accomplish in the course of year.
gIt is not necessary certainly to point out
the many happy hours that they bring in
sto otherwise cherries dwellings. But like
all such endeavors there must be proper
financing and the public is asked to aid IN
this.
Some people often wonder if organiza-
tions were created just to make more
donations inevitable 1t should be the other
way around, of course, but the average
man is quite apt to overlook this fact The
most generous donor too often is the man
who can least afford it, the man or the
woman who has perhaps benefited by the
work of the organizations that make the
plea for help. A general appeal such as is
annually made should not draw any un-
favorable remarks, but should be recelv-
ed in the spirit offered.
If it was possible for all such work, as
that carried on by the Salvation Army
and Visiting Nurses, to be financed by
private means the directors would be quick
to do so. But it becomes imperative, par
ticularly SO in this day and age, to ask
that the rank and file of the people, those
who may some day even require the min
STEERING hand, to. hold these drives. And
40 one is more appreciative of the fine
support accorded than these same direc-
tors. The next time you hear somebody
speak sort of tartly about the drives for
our charitable groups, get in your good
word about the work accomplished ty
those same contributions.

A FIVE DAY WEEK. SIX
III o U II DAY, SEEN AS
EMPLOYMENT HELP

Plainville, Conn.
May 30, 1885.
Editor Of the Democrat:
A five day week OF six to eight
hours q day would do more than
give employment to all; it would
save countless millions now spent
for care Of the insane, sick, poor
and for prosecution and main
tenance OF criminals. The labor ;.
Ing class would soon look like
new race OF people IL given tho
rest, food and mental training re-
quired to insure health. God Gre
ated the body in his own image to
be the temple OF the soul; and He
made no mistake; but through
overwork, improper food and hous-
ing, 1t has become an experimental
station that provides permanent,
employment and lucrative incomes
for thousands Of medical students.
There has been much In the papers
recently regarding cost of medical
care and the establishment OF
health centers because Of govern
ment survey covering several years
OF careful study revealing the cost
OF present healing methods.
Instead of building more insane
asylums, additions to hospitals, en-
larging penal institutions, holding
meetings to discuss child guidance
and juvenile crime, to say nothing
of birth control and other bunk,
let US get down to common sense
and the Bible. The Bible tells all
that rs necessary about raising
children; but people do not read 1t.
The commandment, Love thy
neighbor as thyself," should settle
the unemployment question.
Why not have a flve-day week
with six hours q day and rested In
stead of diseased bodies? A healthy
body has o clear, active mind; and
brains are what the country needs
to-day. The laboring man should
have time to read the morning ana
evening papers, magazines, take
recreation with his family and
study along any lines he might
choose to better his position In Iire.
The millions now spent for the
care OF the afflicted socn would
be available for free colleges to
educate the masses. knowledge
and health would lead to eiimina-
ton Of crime. No need TO worry
about what the iaborer would do
with his spare time; there are no
more criminals among the working
class IN nronorfIon 10 their mum.
