Reports prevalent in Waterbury
during the past few days concern
ing the stringency of the inspection
of motor vehicles, required under
new state law and begun last week
at Hartford, are apparently con-
firmed today with the announce
ment that nearly so per cent of
the cars examined during the first
two days were rejected for faulty
brakes.
The number of reflections, when
other causes are included, runs
considerably higher than so per
cent. Improperly adjusted lights al
SO cause many of the reflections.
Up to yesterday more than 2,400
cars had been examined at the
State Armory grounds in Hartford,
and although the number Of rejec-
tons was not announced it was
said to be exceedingly high.
There has still been no indica-
ton from state authorities as to
when and where the local tests
will be conducted according to au-
| thorities at the motor vehicle Office
on WATERFOWL avenue today.
| That Waterbury car-owners are
considerably worried over the COM
ing inspections is evident from the
number of telephone queries re
ceived during the past week bott
at the motor vehicle headquarters
and at the Democrat office.
Many local motorists are appar-
emily under the impression that ii
will be almost impossible for most
of the older models to pass the in
spection, while it has been reported
locally that even comparatively

guidance Of Plummer Alexander.
This class is composed Of boys be-
tween the ages Of and years.
The work is not Of a very difficult
nature. the class making such i'm
PIGMENTS as tooth brush racks and
door stops, etc.
The oldest class at the Pearl
street house is called the Banner
Glass. It Is composed of nine
boys under the direction of James
Burke. At present this class is
making miniature Of Fulton
park. The class made a tour OF
the park yesterday and now they
are gathering materials and pre-
pairing to reproduce the park as
they saw 1t.
At the Grace Baptist church the
junior class lis doing woodwork of
a more advanced pattern than that
Of the Pearl street students. There
are also drawing and sewing class
es at work.
The intermediate class having
made a trip to the Settlers Viii
lage at Chase park Is now making
Q replica of that village just as
the youngsters at the Pearl street
school are making one of Fulton
park.
The summer school which has
just opened will continue until the
last week in August when it will
disband shortly before the opening
of the city schools, A number of
outings have been planned by di-
rectors Of the school but no defin-
lite dates have been set as yet.

What Is War?

''War, what is WARP" War
is nothing more or less than
stock exchange speculation"
says one writer. There is no
glory in war to-day" says
soldier. But the truth of
threatening war to-day in Eu-
rope, in the Far East, is that
the saturation point of popu-
lation is being reached and
becoming acute-overpopul
ton that will outstrip the food
supply, and lead to war, as the
only method of defamation.
That is the skeleton in the
closet in Japan and Italy. In
other words when an irresist-
able force meets an immov-
able force-what happens?
There are thousands of men
in every country to-day who
would rush to sure destruction
at their individual country's
command, and call it simply
duty after all.
War! Whose name I do abhor;
And yet how sweet
The sound along the marching
street
OF drum or fife, and I forget
Broken old mothers, and the whole
Dark butchering without a soul.
without a sou1-save this bright
treat
OF hcady music, sweet as hell;
And even my peace-abiding feet
Go marching with the marching
street,
For yonder goes the fife,
And what care I for human Life!
The tears fill my astonished eyes,
And my full heart is like to break,
And yet it is embannered lies,
dream those drummers make.
Oh, it is wickedness to clothe
Yon hideous, grinning thing that
in music like a queen
That in q garden of glory walks,
Till men love the thing they
Ioathe;
Art, thou hast many infamies,
But not an infamy like this.
o, snap the fife and still the drum,
And show the monster as she is.

POLITICAL HANDS
Crusaders Com m a n d e r
Says Political Patron
age Paradise Grows

Mentor, Ohio.-"There Is no
more reason for unemployed men
in this country at this time than
there is for icebergs in Arizona"
declared National Commander
Fred G. Clark of The Crusaders,
speaking recently over an aug
mented Mutual Broadcasting Sys-
tenn from the original headquar-
tiers of The Crusaders, and de-
nouncing threatened political con-
troll of business. Describing the
untitled demands, the banks bulg-
ing with money, and the restora-
ton of public confidence in BUSH
ness leadership, Mr.. Clark main
tanned that "the barriers holding
back prosperity are nothing more
or less than political, erected by
demagogues." Behind it all lies the
fear within business, among pros
pective home-builders and small
investors, Gin present and future
radical legislative hostility toward
the business man and the small
and large investor, he asserted,
adding:
when politics gains control Of
business, the ward heller and the
political machine through its local
power will control the final des-
TIMES of business"
Mr.. Clark's topic was Sound
and Uusound Politicians" He de-
| clared:
1--WE do not believe there is any,
thing in the past experience with
these forces which justifies giving
them absolute control over our
daily lives and especially should
we be careful not to give them
complete control over our daily
jobs. But that's exactly what it
will amount to in the long run.
They rae creating a political pat
ronage paradise, a political spells
system millennium.
"Our legislators Of the radical
type say they are shooting at the
hawk. What difference does 1t
make what they say so long as the
truth is-they are Killing the
chickens!
"Our radicals cannot see the
difference between regulation and
destruction. The government can
regulate every industry and every
business practice in this country
just as effectively as can be done
through government control or
government operation.
1--WE go much further; we de-
clare that regulation is much more
desirable than either government
control or observation-disclosures, in
both government control and OPP
Grafton. we place all business and
all activity under the domination
of machine politics. We establish
scores of bureaus filled with hun
dreds of thousands of political
parasites-and the moment this
activity becomes reality our
countryside is filled with 'snoop-
ers' and useless job-holders."

SOLDIERS FAREWELL
BY FRED EDWARDS

SOLDIERS FAREWELL
Oh, never fear, but men have
vowed
At feet OF ladye fair,
And turned their backs on love
most proud,
For truth to do and dare.
Darling of all, at once the thrall-
The story old, yet new
on to the wars, mayhap to fall,
He wrote q farewell true.
A farewell brave and tender such,
We still its strain adore
I could not love thee, dear, SO
much,
Loved I not honor more.
Stirring as bugle call,
So clear and high with duty
strung,
Yet wondrous sweet withal,
81 could not love thee, dear, 30
much,
Loved not honor more!"
Anon.
Honor, patriotism, love of
country-that was why in the
stormy days of the Civil strife,
when the country was divided
against itself, father against
son, brother against brother
that men put away their
sweethearts, wives-their little
children-to fight for princi-
pie. In 1898 to right
wrong, free an enslaved peo-
Pile; in 1916 to make the
world safe for democracy"
And what Of the sweet
hearts and wives Of those who
never returned, Of the moth
ers, the Gold Star mothers Of
1885?
Ask those old mothers who
gave their boys to the war
god, what war means to them,
for
'There was never a shot that
screamed and fell,
And never a bayonet-thrust went

In war 1t is too, the woman
who pays, who bore, who
nursed her boy through the
tender years; war brings to
her a cross of sorrow, she
must bear alone.
And the comforter comes to
her in the silent watches of
the midnight, alone in her
Gethsemane:
woman why weepest
thou?" "Oh, Lord, because
they have taken away my son
and done him unto death, and
I do not know where they
have laid him."
"But woman, thy son liveth
in the memory Of thy genera
ton. He died for an ideal,
and lives again in the symbol
of sacrifices, in the Tomb of
the Unknown Soldier. conse-
Grated by the love and graft
tude Of those he died to
save"
Life Means Sacrifice
'sWoman-mother, all of life
is to give, not to take. Thou
too, gavest. Blest art thou in
the name Of the Holy Mother
hood Of Mary, who too gave
her son for the redemption of
the world. That is the mean
ing of life, to give, to sacri-
feel"
Via Crucis-the way of the
cross-through war, suffering,
death to peace--so soldiers
are sacrificed in the name of
the king of peace. War to end
war, which never ends.
Says the skeptic. Soldiers
sacrificed in the name of the
King of Peace on a Cross OF
Gold!" But skeptics are al
ways that, and always will be.

American Ministers were often hard
