American Wines

The Wine and Food Society of the United States, a non-commercial organ ization which makes a serious hobby of good wines and good meals, held its first "tasting" of the season on recent after noon. The 200 members present walked around the Gold Room of the Hotel Savoy-Plaza in New York city smelling and tasting 37 types of domestic wines. The verdict calls for thoughtful con- sideration.
 American vintners, said these author ities, should stop trying to initiate irn- ported wines. They only achieve inferior results. Instead they ought to concen- trate on producing original anG typical American wines with distinctive names of their own.
 It is impossible to duplicate exactly in one country the wines of another, because differences in soil and climate cannot be duplicated. Excellent domestic wines would not only be welcome here but might gain favor abroad as poor imita- tions cannot. There is sound sense in the tasters' advice. In wines, as in other matters, it is best to be yourself.

 He is afraid this demoralized and puz- zled class will line up with the powerful propertied interests to establisha Fascist rule which would abandon traditional middle-class ideals. Not immediately, but ''after the Nnext depression" which MT. Corey expects after few years of hectic prosperity. That alliance, he thinks, would end small, independent business, along with liberty and equality.
 To avoid such tragedy he urges middle class people to strive for an economic order suited to their aspirations, not rev. olutionary but growing out of present national life. It would include better economic control to avoid these periodic breakdowns, production and distribution of the abundance that industry is capable of, general economic security, expansion of professional and cultural services everywhere, new and higher forms of freedom. It is an ambitious program, but might be possible if middle class peo- pie were able to work together.

Time Alone Will Show

Time alone is going to snow Wnetnei ~ mt the Connecticut State Journal, MT. William Hendricks republican organ, came anywhere near the truth when lC nredicted that a wave of republicanism wo,,ld sweep over Hartford, New Haven and Rridpeport in their rapidly-a approach, irg elections. Of course things were salo about Waterbury, including compaIr so,, between the votes of Mayor Frank Hayes in 1885 and 1883, the inference pc inG that the trend was changing m the hiS cities from democratic to repubncan'
 We would hesitate to predict repupli- can victory in either New Haven or Hart. ford. The chances seem extremely prignC in the latter city for democratic Victory for John Pilgard. And this should pc achieved, too, after warm primary pat He in which the nominee revealed plenty of strength. As for New Haven It mlghI he inferred from the fact that Governor Wilbur L. Cross felt impelled to speak for the candidacy of Mayor John Murpny that the democrats were fearful of the olItcone. There is more than one expla- nation, however, of his appearance on the campaign platform.
 As for Bridgeport to claim g.o'p. win down there is to throw Mayor Jasper McLevy right out the window. It seems a bit far-fetched to end the socialist reign in Bridgeport so abruptly, but 1T we were to claim that any party could beat him this fall, 1t would be the demo- cratic with Joseph Wieler, one of the strongest vote getters in any party and a present member of the McLevy admin istration. leading the way. We doubt If former mayor and lieutenant-governor, Clifford B. Wilson, can swing the support to beat both McLevy and Wieler.
 Instead of presenting gloomy outlook we rather incline to the opinion thag whatever hope the republicans salvaged from the October town elections will be lost after the remaining large cities have completed their balloting. Of course, voters are a funny lot, since they are made up of you and me and the other fellow. We do funny tricks with the lever of the voting machine. Still we like the democratic chances.

tuition. The fine is small, but 1t is none the less important that every report of this nature should be fol- lowed up and action taken, for tho dangers of toleratinng such practices lead to e honey-combing of public services with graft and waste.
 Tn addition to practices that are actually against the law, there is evidently needed Q more efficient business policy for oil purchases and contracts made by state institutions and departments. The attcrney-gen- eral has expressed hope that the committee may learn whether it would be to the states interest to abandoa the method of direct pur- chases by institutions and depart- rlents without bidding and to adopt some uniform system of purchas- ing on the basis of competitive bld- ding, at least on staple and stand. ard articles"
 The general public, aware of the safeguards now placed upon the purchasing of city institutions end departments, will be surprised to learn that the state institutions are not already under somewhat similar regulation. The burden of proof, to its way of thinking, will not be on whether there is c need for change, but why the state has not already taken these precautions, Some citi- zens will bo even further, no doubt, and ask why the state should not have c system of central purchasing in order to save by means of large orders and expert buying.
 Out of the investigation there should come not only information as to the report that has reached the attorney-general but also Q better understanding of scientific and efficient purchasing for public needs. With Q deficit mounting in current expenditures and need of larger funds for the state institu- tions, no considerations for past customs, for old contracts or for anything except good business prac- tices should be permitted to enter into the discussion of this problem.
