tile to the Council as a whole or to some
particular member or give the cold should
er to certain passages merely because they
fail to grasp the significance.
It seems reasonable that some local or
gqnization should invite few lectures on
: this most important subject thus giving
the members chance to ask questions
and be enlightened by means of the cor
rect answer.
They will then be in better position
to show their appreciation for the labor of
the Organic Act Committee and the strug
giles of the Delegation at Washington.
Are there any local organizations suffi
GENTLY interested in enligntening their mem
bers further upon our new Bill of rights?
People show more appreciation for
things they know than things they need

Cummings to Keynote

The formal invitation to Homer s. Cum tmings, U. s. Attorney General, to act as
 keynote speaker at the spring convention
 of the democratic party of Connecticut will meet with general approval. Attor-
 ney-General Cummings is the ranking federal government official in Connec- ticut today. His post is one that speaks well for his own ability and in conferring
 the office upon him the national admin istration of President Roosevelt conferred
 a great honor on the state, too. It is
 entirely in keeping that his place in the Presidents Cabinet be thus recognized. Other than that Mir Cummings in his town right is well qualified to deliver the keynote address at this or any other con- .vention. He earned the title of silver .tongued orator many years ago. Back in San Francisco in 1920 when democrats turned to Ohio for it's presidential can. .didate, Homer Cummings of Connecticut, was the keynoter who stirred the conven- .tion hall with his ringing tones and his .masterful arguments. At this conven- .tion, too, a young man named Franklin D. Roosevelt also came upon the national .Scene.
 We feel sure that democrats who at- ..tend the spring convention in New Haven next month will be well rewarded. We -can expect from Attorney General Cum Innings at that time an address that will beyond a doubt enkindle in democratic -circles in this state the magic spark that .spells victory. If he by his personality .and his wizardry of speech can dispel any motions of defeat or thoughts of rupture, .his appearance will be doubly satisfying. Democrats in general should compliment their leaders who turned to the Attorney .General of the United States for advice Jas they hold their first convention of the year.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-04-20
Make It Significant

Governor Wilbur L. Cross last week is- sued his annual proclamation calling for observance of Arbor and Bird Day on Fris day, April 24. Years ago we used to ob serve just Arbor Day. but for some reason .or other we have expanded it to include the feather creatures who make such .good use of our trees. We don't know when an Arbor Day proclamation should receive more attention than right now after the state has just experienced devastating flood.
 :. "Now, if ever, peoples thoughts should be turned toward tree planting. Half a million seedlings from the state nursery up in Barkhamstead are in readiness to be placed on idle land throughout the coun- trySide. These should be amplifed by thousands of others that men, women, and children will set out in their own backyards. Cities should have regular tree-planting campaign every year. It's something that most communities over look or leave to George to do.
 The time has long passed when George can take care of reforestation. It's a mod ern day problem. Every civic body should be aware of this fact and should cooper ate accordingly. We suggest that Water bury in honor of Connecticut's Arbor and Bird Day make plans to have planted trees on all available land throughout the city. We don't mean just city property but private property, which will thus be enhanced and in so doing the good ap- .pearance of the city maintained and pro- tected for long years to come.

The Battles Over

The Young Democrats of Connecticut having ended their differences by select ing slate of compromise candidates peace should now descend upon the party for few months. That will give the party leaders an opportunity to lay plans for determined onslaught this fall when the forces of Roosevelt and New Dealism raise their voices in monotonous school child fashion, reciting the multiplication tables. The reverberations of Saturdays battle were stilled by midnight.
 In fact the suddenness with which the din and uproar that had preceded the convention subsided was bit startling It makes experienced observers wonder if perhaps there wasn't great deal said and done for effect rather than purpose How ever, it will be extremely noticeable to re- publicanS who may have hoped to capi- talize on the rupture in Young Democrat ranks that it was purely within the ranks and not engaged in by leaders or officials not affiliated with this political group.
 Both adherents and opponents of John F. Robinson, former state president, are claiming the victory today. However, the latter right now seem to have the advan- tage in that they can boast that the for mer president is out, whereas his follow CTS vowed up until few short days of the convention that he would be safely re- turned to office That unforeseen events caused Governor Wilbur L. Cross and other high leaders to not merely advocate but demand compromise president for the coming year is undisputed by what transpired Saturday. There can be no doubt but what the best way out of diff ficul situation was discovered and promptly seized.

Oil for the Future

People have mostly quit worrying about the petroleum supply in this country Ten years ago survey indicated oil reserves of 5,00O,00OO 900 barrels. So much new oil has been discovered since then that, after producing and consuming more than 3,0O0,0OO000 barrels, there is more than twice as much known to exist now than estimated in 1925. And although consumption is increasing right along, the American Petroleum Institute, representing the oil interests, says there is at least enough in sight to last for 9 years more.
 Twenty-Five years, to be sure, is a short time in the life of nation. And petrol cum becomes more and more important for industrial purposes, and almost indis- pensable for warfare It is reasonable, however, to expect further extensive dis ,coveries of pool oil, especially at lower depths And when that is gone, there will remain vast quantities of "shale oil" :, in Colorado and elsewhere. It is nearly 'ss good, though more expensive to pro- .euce After that, our almost inexhaus- ble supplies of coal can be turned into oil 'hnd gasoline Eventually we may be Hsing mostly Diesel motors, which can run on almost any kind of oil.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-04-20

Although we never heard it claimed historically it is now claimed that the assassination of President James A. Gar field caused the first civil service bill to sweep through Congress. Today grand son of President Garfield, James Garfield, of Cambridge, Mass, is actively engaged in the fight by the League of Women Voters to place only trained individuals in public service The National Civil Service Reform League was formed in 1881 to remove all national government offices from the spoils system. How well it has succeeded may be judged by results today. If civil service rules were strictly enforced today it might even be necessary for WPA workers to qualify for jobs. We don't doubt but what in time we'll turn to more trained workers and fewer politi- cal hacks, but that civil service will ever completely replace the spells system un- der our present from of government seems doubtful.

Philadelphia is joining the list of cities that are waging war on unnecessary noises. There aren't very many of our big cities yet who have adopted anti noise statutes, but as the weeks pass another one here and there joins it's voice in the campaign for peace and tran quillity. Horses in Philadelphia will .henceforth be shod with rubber shoes; peddlers no longer will make the welkin ring with their husky vending; auto horns that toot rude serenades at all hours will be silenced. Last year the city tried to impose an anti-noise mandate; 1t failed. This year success seems assured.

A Book a Day
Fears Dictatorship if U. s. Goes to War
 BY BRUCE CATION

Comes this next war we hear 50 much about, and what happens to MT. Ordinary American?
 Rose. M. Stein has been studying the material dug up by the senate munitions committee, and other relevant documents, and presents the answer in "M-Dal," disturb ing book which shows just what kind of rods are in pickle for use.
 Industry and man-power alike will be conscripted, she says, the moment America enters the war. The plans are all drawn up and are on ice in the war department files, ready to be handed to con- gress. As in 1917, America will become a great war machine-only more efficient, more carefully driven, than 1t was before.
 But, she goes on, three is catch in 1t. Conscription of nan-power will be 100 per cent. Conscription of industry will be just a gag; for conscripted industry will be run by the industrialists themselves.
 Profits will go sky-high, she says, as they did before, for the good reason that there is no possible way of preventing 1t. The draft and the work or fight" rule will put labor completely at the mercy of capital. What we shall get. in short, will be dictatorship by en- trenched wealth, on a scale not dreamed of before; and it is Q nice question whether. at the end of the war, we shall be able to get out from under it.
 Thus Miss Stein. And while you may not agree with her conclu- sions and may feel that her book is somewhat one-sided. you will find 1t a valuable and Q stimulating thing to read and to ponder over.
 Published by Harcourt. Brace & Co.,, it sells for $2.50.

Measured Phrases

Many questions remain unanswered, but not that of "a hairs breath" It was involved in razor blade patent case which reached the Supreme Court after going through several lower courts. The mathematical measurement was given as -four thousandths of an inch"
 Now, we can know just how narrow an escape may be when disaster is eluded "by hairs breath" Or can we? Some hair-breath escapes gre matters of time rather than space. Better get Einstein's statement before going ahead with the mathematical measurements of figures of speech.
