A Thought for Today
Isolation Is Advanced

George Washington's advice to his countrymen included the warning, Tn time of peace, prepare for war" The cur rent idea at the capital seems to be to revise this to read, "In time of peace, pre- pare to stay out of war" One of the most interesting things now under considera- tion by the administration is new kind of foreign policy designed to keep this country clear of any scraps in which for eign nations may indulge.
 State Department, Senate Munitions Committee, and the White House have been considering the outlines of this policy with the notion that nation which plays its cards carefully can't be forced into any conflict in which it's own vital interests are not involved. It is proposed, for in- stance, to empower the President, in case fof war among foreign nations, to halt the Issuance of passports to Americans deslr- ous of travelling through the war zone, unless their business is so urgent that they are willing to go at their own risk.
 Another proposal is that the President be empowered to withdraw United States protection from all American ships which enter war zones American exporters might trade with warning nations if they wished, but the risk would be strictly their own if they did so These two proposals are long steps in the direction of that na- tional isolation which seems to be growing so popular these days. But the isolation they propose is isolation of an intelligent kind; an isolation which quite properly would place the national desire for peace above the desire of individuals to profit by foreign conflict.
 It is pretty clear that if we should re- peat our 1914 kind of neutrality in a new European war, our chances of staying out of the war would be little better than they were the last time We insisted that American ships and American travellers had an inalienable right to go through the war zones and to do business in any mar ket they could find; our insistence on that right finally compelled us to uphold it by force of arms = and war which seemed very remote, when it started, at last came to our own doorstep.
 < Wouldn't it be good deal smarter of us to waive that right? We might miss some very profitable business, to be sure. War orders meant big dividends to Ameri- can investors in 1915 and 1916. But in the end that trade landed us in the war and, thereby, proved about the most ex- pensive kind of business we ever had. Plans now being matured at Washington point in the right direction. If we are go- ing to follow policy of isolation in for eign affairs, we might as well carry it to it's logical conclusion.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-04-06
What a Diference!

The Waterbury Republican now seems to be staunch supporter of Governor Wilbur l.. Cross, more so than it was last fall when the so able state executive was seeking reelection to the great office he has so well filled during the past four years. The Governor needed real support during the election period, more than he does today.
 Funny, isn't it, how several of the most active state papers which sought his down. fall and urged the public to defeat him last year are today singing his praises. just because he vetoed the racing bill, and thus saved the state and it's people from going astray, as these same papers have explained in their columns. Even the Bristol Press, which demanded the Cover nor's defeat, now thinks he is all right, in view of his veto of the racing bill.
 There is some doubt in the editorial language of the Republican as to whether it really favors the nomination of Senator John c. Blackall for insurance commits sioner. But we do, first, because he's a Waterbury native; then again because he was formerly newspaperman in this city. but principally because we know of the ex ceptional ability of the distinguished young man. We glory in his appointment, and we congratulate the governor.

Believe it or not, you anglers Uncle San! tossed 5OO,O00 fish into Connecticut wat CTS in 1884 and plans to increase that allot- ment this year. The varieties included small-mouth black bass, rainbow trout, and brook trout. Wonder where all those fish went to or if many of the thousands will grow up to be caught. We'll wager good proportion never will be taken out Of any of the ponds or streams in which they were placed. It's too bad that Connecticut cannot for once and for all clean up all her waterways so that all fish and plant life will benefit. It's high time we took steps in that direction

buying the site and letting the contracts for the building. Then would come the board of trustees to have control of the new institution. The intention was obvi- ously political move. But now one won- ders just what is back of it all. That something is afoot which might cause the average person to become suspicious is only natural. It never was necessary be- fore to surround the establishment of a new state institution with such secrecy or behind-the-scene plans.
 Probably some of this reticence is due to the fact that efforts to put the new home in Watertown, where 1t originally was scheduled to be built, produced fire works in the form of town opposition. In the effort to avoid any such occurrence in some other community the idea now is to sneak up on the town quietly, buy the nec- essary land, and start the work going before anyone is the wiser. At least that's an observation predicated on this new com mission plan.

We Were Warned

The news from Hartford yesterday the legislative committee on humane institu- tions was preparing to report favorably on secret @ bill calling for creation of seven-man commission empowered to pick site for and contract for construc- tion of new Home for the Feeble Minded was really old news. We had been fore warned earlier in the week. Legislative circles buzzed with the news that the plan of Governor Wilbur L. Cross to have a commission of five trustees named to supervise selection of site and construc- tion of new feeble-minded home was to be superseded.
 In it's place we were to have first a c0mmissioS ss lave charge of the work of

Outside of furnishing few jobs we don't know just what good these jobless censuses do. Yet there'll be another one in Connecticut this summer, according to reports. It is expected to show that there is present today in Connecticut decided trend from the urban to the rural life. All of which won't find jobs for the thousands of unemployed in Connecticut. Now if Uncle Sam did feel in magnanimous mood, we could suggest an idea offered to us just the other day. Walking down a residential street this individual said off handedly, 'What wonderful thing it would be if the government painted all the houses on this street or any street in Wa terbury?" Discussing it further, we de- cided that every two out of three houses could stand paint job. That would mean work for many men; it would mean in- creased property values.

EEP GLASSES IN ART, ETC,

April 4th, 1885. Editor, Waterbury Democrat, Waterbury, Connecticut:
 have just read and reread the article in today's Democrat where MT Harris expresses his views in regard to money spent on EEP classes. M
 should like to question MT Harris as to why nearly four thousand .Waterburians should not be taught the fine points on con- tract bridge, "Carioca", "Conti- nentap, as well as subjects of Fart appreciation.
 We Waterburians well realize that we are just g factory crowd. Never had anything and perhaps never will. But do not understand why we, too can't have the ad- yantages of learning what we want, since we are on our own time, and are using our own gov ernments money. MT Harris must know that the subects taught on this project were only those that could be self-supp0rting. to say, those subjects where the teacher might be sure of large ciass. It

may be asleep, but it is by no means blind or ignorant. The so- cialist labor party is doing all within its power to awaken the working class to its historic mis- sion, of substituting socialism for capitalism. We know where we are going and how we intend to get there, and we are going there with our own eyes and on our own two feet. Experience has shown us, and will show others that all so- o-called leaders are mis-leaders.
 We need no Headers" to take us to the Industrial Democracy-in- deed. Headers cannot take us thither. The writings of Daniel De Leon, based on the solid rock of Marxian@ science, have charted the path for us which makes 1t im- possible for us to be misled. How ever, we are retarded in our prog ress because we cannot go there without the remainder of the Am- erican working class. We know that the workers cannot be drag ged against their will to this rev. olutionary change, and we are consequently engaged in the task of eaching. them the "what" and the "why" and the "how" of socialism.
 We in the socialist labor party believe in the truth of the old ad- age, eff you want 8 job done right, do it yourself" And we further more believe that 1t will be adopt ed by the working class of Am erica iE time to prevent here the tragedy that has overtaken the German working class. Industrial unionism is self-reliance on na- tional scale.
 Yours in the interest of revolu- tionary socialism,
