A Thought for Today
Bus Stops And Our Green

The petition of the New England Trans portation Company for permission to Hgobble up" the north side of the Green as another "bus stop" should be closely stud fed before the traffic committee of the Board of Police Commissioners acts upon it. The people of Waterbury own the streets, and have some rights that should be considered before any more bus stands are established.
 People find it impossible to park for a minute or two to rush into a central store and make purchase, owing to the nume;'- ous spots allotted to these bus companies, and it's about time something was done to change some of the conditions. And somc- thing should be done by the traffic con- mittee too to see that the public utilities commission change the routing of the Cooke Street Line, and some of the other bus lines of the city. Left hand turns into Spencer avenue from North Main street are dangerous to travel, and should be stopped.
 We know this power rests with the state body, but it shouldn't The police traffic commissioners are the better judges of where busses should go and stop in the city of Waterbury. Better regulation ot taXis in and about the green, and more ulTSCI TOuCcS lOT UuSSeS SHOulu Uc d SLuuy for the police traffic committee, so that the city will get an improved traffic con- dition for the coming summer months.
 Traffic points should be protected by uniformed policemen at all times. At various hours of the day and night, we find too many of them vacant and, there fore, dangerous to pedestrians Anyway, it is our opinion that all policemen should do traffic duty, and let the patrol service be performed by the automobile squad. We have great deal of respect for our traffic commissioner and feel that they will do something soon to better the condi- tions mentioned. But we advise them to stop special privileges in the>way of grant ing bus stops. Let some of these com- panies establish regular stations in un- rented stores and thus provide against weather conditions for their patrons.

The Court Rules

The Supreme Court of Errors of Con- necticut has ruled that Waterbury's two Registrars of Voters shall be busted from office. There is no appeal from this de- cision of the highest court in our state. And doubtless the citizens of Waterbury won't really care that one cannot be taken. Although the registrars case had appar- ently become dead issue as long ago as last spring, this announcement stirs up the embers and centers attention on the office
 We still think that our original opinion on the matter holds good The registrars were more sinned against than shining themselves. If they are guilty of neglect of office, it was by omission and not con- mission. In the eyes of the law, though, the one IS as grievOus as the other. Per haps now the system will be rectified and mere man not held responsible for the breakdown of a system, that had been seldom used in Waterbury of recent years and hence had plenty of time in which to rust.
 s So far as registration on party primary lists is concerned very few voters in recent years ever took the trouble to have his or her name recorded by the officials We must keep in mind, therefore that all this stir and hubbub was over something that !, dcIudLy pldyeu liILle oI llo part III ueCluiIiS the duly-elected officials of Waterbury, No city, state or national election outcome here can be questioned. If the time does come that a primary contest will bear on it's following election, we are wise to adopt such methods of registration as are now being proposed in the Legislature.
 Our sympathies are with Registrars Henry O'Connor and Thomas Dillane Political ambitions and purposes have caught them squarey in the line of fire.

Adolph s. Ochs

Sheet after sheet of copy paper has flowed through the printers hands in the last two days as the nation was informed of the death of Adolph s. Ochs, publisher of the New York Times and the Chatta- nooga Times. Here was subject that allowed free play of the imagination and style of writing, for in every sense of the word the life career of Ochs was Ager- esque. His beginnings were humble His death came when he had risen to the pin nacle of success.
 Oddly enough his death comes but short time after one of his associates of many years standing on the New York Times, the late Louis Wiley. Ochs and Wiley were to the Times what Dana was D the Sun, or Greeley to the Tribune, Pulitzer to the World, Hearst to the Amer scan. The New York Times has often been referred to as the greatest newspaper ;n

ORGANIZATIONS CHANGE
 '" THEIR MINDS AS DO {; INDIVIDUALS

;,~t'e Waterbury, Conn.
 #% April g, 1885. Editor, Waterbury Democrat:
 Just recently the American Medical Association voiced its ob- jections against the tendency to- ward state medicine as also cor. porate medicine. Inl the latter case they have expelled membe. 5 who participated in such practice. Many authorities predicted that unless the Medical Association permitted organized medicine among its members that state and corporate medicine would follow as a matter of course and thus take control out of the hands of the Medical Association.
 It is gratifying to learn that the Hartford Dental Society adopted a plan by which its members will treat, in their own offices, under an agreement with the City Well fare Department, children between the ages of six and IS years, who are unable to have afforded them private dental care. The members VI LIiC oOSaCty Wlh ACSClNc lEOIu onc-flfth to one-third of their nor- mal fees for their work in these cases, from the Welfare Depart ment. The plan goes into effect immediately. Hartford Is the first city in the United States to afford complete dental service to it's school children.
 Surely this is step in the right direction. It is estimated that so per cent of Hartford's school chill dren are in need of dental care. About one-half of these children could not be afforded private care. The Hartford Welfare De- pertinent believes that more satis- factory dental care will be provid- ed and the city will save the cost of additional dental clinics. | It is to be hoped that this move ment will spread to all cities and towns. Also 1t is to be hoped that the movement will extend into other fields. Thousands upon thousands of people are in need of eye glasses, dental treatment, and general medical attention. The American Medical Association should be the sponsors. not the antagonists. of low cost organized medical treatment. Clinical treat ment will never appeal 10 the pub. lie. It smacks too much of the bread line.

the world. 1t was safely SO in the United States. And it was due to the genius and ability of Ochs that such reputation was achieved.
 Ochs brought to the newspaper business a complete knowledge of the printing tl ade, for he early apprenticed himself and proceeded through the various degrees un- til he had risen to the role of full-fledgec printer. At the age of 20 he bought the Chattanooga Times. Eighteen years later he took over the New York Times. Its growth, once Ochs with the aid of many brilliant and faithful aides with whom he associated himself in the early part of this century, had taken hold, was phenomenal.
 Newspaper publishers differed and con- tinue to differ violently with many poli- cies that Ochs established in the publica- ton of the New York Times, Eut all re- spected him, his paper, and principles and in time aped many of them. For sheer thoroughness in coverage the Times is without an equal If it's news and if it's fit to print, you'll find it in the Times. That was what Ochs set out to achieve. He certainly did it. And in so doing elevated himself to the front rank in the newspaper world. His influence was widespread; it was salutary. Would there were more like him.

 DIPLOMATIC NAlVETE
 The four giant bombing planes SO which slipped out of the United States for Bolivia last week caused q terrific, explosion in the state department and are likely to bring reverberations on Cap itol Hill.
 Departure of the planes was in violation of the arms embargo against. both Bolivia and Para guay and caused critical press comment in South America.
 Investigation within the state department has placed blame for the fiasco upon Joseph C. Green. who did not seem to think 1t strange that giant bombing planes should go on a nonstop flight to chart an air route which had been charted several thousand times before.

INITIATION AHEAD! WHAT TO DO
 ABOUT IT

Waterbury, Conn.
 April 9, 1885. Editor, Waterbury Democrat:
 w. M. Kiplinger, business writ CT and Washington correspondent, and Frederick Shelton, noted law yer and economist, have collabo- rated in writing series of letters, now available, in book form, en- titled "Infiation Ahead! Whats to do about it." This book can be purchased at local book stores and anyone interested in future eco- homie trends should read it. The book is written in non-technical, understandable language. The viewpoint is objective.
 Imitation has been bugaboo term during the depression, fright ening both rich and poor alike. Imitation consists of the increase of the volume of money (curreEcy or bank credit) beyond the normal needs of business at the particular time, PLUS active will of business to use the money or credit" Messrs Kiplinger and shelton use this definition and weave an eco- homie story around 1t.
 Their book treats of stocks, bonds, commodities, real estate, and business in general. The bis problem facing all business men 's what to do or what not to do. After reading the book the aver age business man feels more hope ful and can plan ahead with more courage, There is no question but what the average man will clear away many fogs that have previ- ously been begging down on him.
 The writers of 'Inflation Ahead! successfully called the turn in the banking collapse of 1883, the. rise of silver prices, the recent rise of foodstuffs and other economic turns. They now predict the be- ginning of a boom which will be very noticeable in 1886 and 1887, reaching a high in 1940 and 194l. Not since the depression started has any book been published packed with so much comman sense. No matter what you do fo. livelihood you can profit from reading this book.

Press Comment
THE LITHUANIAN SITUATION
 (New Britain Herald)

Lithuania was made into a sep arate state after the war because the Lithuanians were a minority in East Prussia and were judged worthy of freedom to govern them. selves. Now the Germans in Lith. uania are a minority.
 The most recent difficulty in Lithuania. whereby four Germans were doomed to death and S3 sent to prison-some for long terms following conviction in plot against the government. came at moment when the general sit- uation was tense. Herr Hitler men. toned the Lithuanian affair to Sir John Simon and it is not known what the British thought of it. When Germany about year ago made a non-aggression pact with Poland, Lithuania was not in- cluded. Tn the past Poland and Lithuania have been on bad terms and Poland seized Wilma without the League of Nations or any other European nation attempting to say nay. The outlook in Lithuania, 50 far as It's German neighbor is con- cerned. is likely to be continued friction.

The New York Chamber of Commerce issued an interesting little pamphlet as of March 30, 1885, which bears some scru- tiny. We don't agree with everything that was said in the four-page folder. for instance, it is hard to believe all this '"Then the members of Congress are itch ing to get control of the industries and utilities of our country. One of the ex- pressions they use to deceive the people in- to letting them get control of the indus tries and utilities is government owner ship Now what the legislators call 'gov- ernment ownership means taking the in- dustries and utilities out of the hands of men who have spent lifetime in their upbuilding and turning them over to the control of their henchmen for the purpose of building up their political organiza- tion. =" Maybe that is what legislators propose. But others look with favor on
 government ownership as check to complete control of our natural resources and their further exploitation by these same industries and utilities. What of this state of affairs? It exists, you know.

A Book a Day
He Saved India-And Was Called A Thief
 BY BRUCE CAPTION

If your knowledge of English history is as hay as that of your reviewer, you probably remember Warrent Hastings only as an Eng fish administrator in India who was called to account by parliament for his peculation. and whose defense is vaguely supposed to have been that. considering the pickings that were available. he was astonished that he hadn't taken more.
 A picture as hay as all that is pretty likely to be wrong; and Strange Destiny a new biogra- phy of Hastings by A. Mervin Davies, gives 1t an entirely differ ent aspect.
 MT Davies presents Hastings as the first of the great adminis- traitors sent out to India by the British. He served in troublous time; while he was in India. the American colonies were establish Davies points out that England came within inches of losing her Indian possessions also. That she did not, he says, was due to Hast ings.
 That Hastings robbed the na- lives this biographer indignantly denies. At time when mere clerks were making millions in a few years in, India, Hastings laid away only very modest fortune --and this despite the fact that he drew prodigious salary.
 Far from robbing the Indians, Hastings laid the foundations for England's great Indian civil serv- ice system and made possible q just, orderly. and strictly honest form of government.
 This book may strike American readers us slightly long and over detailed, but 1t tells an interesting story. Putnam publishes it at s6.

Just about this time of the year, an odd light is apt to be noted in the eye of the average householder, At times he is seen walking around his backyard in an ab- stracted fashion, occasionally gazing far away at distant hills, then abruptly scru- tinizing the ground around him. A stubby pencil now and then jots down something on the back of an envelope And that, ladies and gentlemen, is usually the start of backyard garden. Often-times it will be beautiful garden; then again it will start well, but end miserably. Into the creation of an orderly and ornamental backyard must go back-ending effort. Add frequent doses of sun and rain for results.
