A Thought for Today
Temperance Of Speech

The spirit of this age seems to be cen tered on the thought that to command attention you have to designate indiVlo- uals by appropriately-phrased adIectives. The louder and more vivid becomes your description of some person or thing that meets with your disapproval the better the people will like 1t. That's theory, at any rate. We wonder if 1t is right. And if 1t is right we wonder if as much will be accomplished by subscribing to this theory as there would be by forget ting about 1t and going about our normal occupations.
 Owen D. Young, who is pretty sensi- ble sort of person even if he is placed Tn the much-criticized capitalistic class, said something the other day that we thought was very applicable to the pres. ent-day situation. It struck us as sound note in a discordant period of national and international affairs. He sald, Freedom of speech for the man whose voice can be heard a few hundred feet IS one thing, but freedom of speech TOT the man whose voice may be heard around the world Is another. We defend them both and will to the uttermost, but we cannot be blind to the increasing dang. CTS of carelessness or intemperance or their use. -"
 Citing specific instances of where dangers may turk MT. Young referred to recent radio addresses of Herbert Hoover, Alfred k. Smith, and Joseph T. Robinson. He said, "Without questioning their right to freedom of speech, without inquiring as to the sincerity of their belief, one may well ask whether such statements are wise exercise of the great powers and responsibilities of trusteeship which these men hold. One welcomes careful analysis and fearless debate, which aid us to find our way. We need as never before cool passion. We need as never before to escape the heat and to seek the light. -"
 That's good advice. It won't be taken. We know that for the people want to hear people and things flayed; they want to read about them. But we can not help but think that a continuation of such tactics will end in no good. If there were any results to be attained, they would be swallowed up in the hectic and tumultuous pickering now going on. Keep in mind these closing words of MT. Young: ITO these great men, and even to the President of the United States, all held in such high esteem, may we not appeal for the choice of word and the measured phrase, spoken with malice toward none and charity toward all?
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-02-28
Wrong Both Ways

The way that republican campaign orators founder around in their efforts to convict the Roosevelt administration of almost every sin that humans can commit is sometimes bit funny. For year now we have been listening to all types of complaints from all types Of speakers. The main idea they tried to convey was that President Roosevelt was driving the nation to the boW-Wows by an orgy of spending, the like of which had never been seen in this nation.
 Last Saturday Lewis E. Goodsell Of Bethel, state chairman Of the Young Re- publicans, took another angle of the sit- uation. He publicly subjected Governor Cross to a severe attack because the gov- ernor had not secured from the federal government funds for institutional proJ- 1ects. As he characterized 1t, there was plenty of money for fantastic proJ- ccts all over the nation, but not one nickel for Connecticut unfortunate human beings. We ask the democrats, why not?"
 MT. Goodsell evidently subscribes then to the theory Of the Roosevelt adminis- tration insofar as heavy spending on projects is concerned. Yet we'll wager that four or five months from now there won't be anything too bad to say about the theory of spending to create jobs and supply inlative to trade. It's the old story of being blamed if you do it and blamed if you don't.
 As to spending money on Connecticut unfortunates, we might ask MT. Good sell to consult the records. He must surely recall the golden opportunity that was laid at gop. threshholds some years ago when republican survey showed our institutions sadly in need of atten. ton. 4 plan of action was dumped ovcr- board by high-ranking republican lead CTS because 1t meant sacrificing a re- publican campaign slogan. It wasn't until the democrats and independent voters of the state really pushed to the fore that Institutional expansion began in earnest. Don't blame Governor Cross for not running down to Washington every other day for more funds. Give him 6 bit Of praise for his restraint in a situation when restraint is in order,

Knitting Audiences

Knitting has achieved wartime pro- portions, but knitters today make sweat CTS and dresses and afghans for them selves instead of socks for soldiers. That is doubtless why anti-knitters are able to raise their voices in respected protests against knitting at certain times and places.
 A women's club in the East, devoted to cultural, educational, philantropic and civic purusits, has voted that at lectures hereafter the knitters must be segregated in one section. Non- knitters, 1t appears, have been so annoyed and distracted by the click of needles and the swift gestures of the needle-plyers that they could not hear the speaker or concentrate on ms message. They found themselves count, ing their neighbors' needle strokes ana missing the cream of the talk.
 This division and segregation may be all right for both groups in the audience, but what will it do to the man on the platform? Knitters scattered through a large group might not even be noticed, but knitters en masse could become an scarcely be blamed if their thoughts alarming mental hazard. Speakers could turned to the French Revolution, their nervousness increased and their speeches fled from their minds.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-02-28
Legal Polar Claims

If the United States really wants to retain sovereignty over parts of Antarc- tica, Congress ought to do something about it now. International law, at pres ent, does not recognize mere discovery as a just claim to ownership. There must be settlement before sovereignty becomes permanent,
 Nevertheless, 1t has been customary for Arctic and Antarctic explorers of the United States and other lands to set up flags and claim the explored area for their governments. Charles Henry Hyde, professor of international law at Column bia University, points out that flags may easily disappear before any settlements would be made, particularly in those un- inviting except to explorers-wastes down around the South Pole.
 Settlement in either the Arctic or Antarctic regions discovered and explored within recent years is hardly likely for some time to come. Other governments have been claiming sectors in those re- gions. It is possible that, in the future, the acts of Admiral Byrd and other ex, plorers may be regarded and accepted generally as sufficient to give good title to the areas claimed. At present posses sion of those places seems hardly Wortn nations quarrelling about, but future trouble might be avoided by sensible congressional action now.

Waterbury won't have to make any changes in It's present traffic ordinances or signals in order to conform to uni- versal system in Connecticut. Motorists are quick to observe that Waterbury's parking signs and the like are pretty much the same as those in most large cities. However, there are many towns where the change to the uniform style or system would help great deal in pre- venting unintentional violations of the laws. And if the same signals and signs that applied/in Connecticut also applied in neighboring New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island there never could be any excuse of ignorance by visiting mo- torists. And that's what safety officials and other interested groups are working towards now. Let's hope the objective may be achieved.

more can it be predicted with any degree of accuracy what the out- growth of this weeks carnival of assassination will be. If the army succeeds in fastening securely It's grip on the conduct of domestic and foreign relations 1t is dollars to doughnuts the Orient will be turned into 0 cockpit with Chi- nese, Japs, and Russians as conl- batants. If the men of banking and business, or what remains of them when the casualties are counted up, survive the military firing squads there is a fair chance of peace. Just as 1t is the nature of men of banking and business to make money so 1t is the nature of the men of Mars to make bat- tie. Whichever caste secures dom- ination in the Land of the Rising Sun will write the ticket for the immediate future. It is easy to say that the whole issue is on the knees of the gods of Nippon, but in the Foreign Offices of Europe and Asia, and in tho State De- partment at Washington there IS the diplomatic gloom which Is al- ways born of uncertainty.
