We feel sorry for Mr.. and Mrs. Ray
mond Klotz this week. We had them
in the "death" column last week when
they only just began to live. People
may say that "life begins at forty"
but for them I'll bet my hat it began
last week.
The only place where death" enters
this picture is to the former suitors
of Mrs. Klotz. It's "let alone" policy
from now on.
Right That Time
In 1928 Franklin Roosevelt said that
GAL Smith has the uncanny faculty
of irresistably finding the truth"
Looks like he still has, only in 1886
Roosevelt doesn't want to believe it.
New Deal Action
Roosevelt and Wallace, everybody
knows,
Plowed up the cotton we needed for
clothes;
Flowed up the wheat that we needed
to eat,
And killed off the hogs we needed
for meat.
So let's elect men with good common
sense
Landon and Knox is the place to COM
mence.
Some of the political advertisements
which have been running in Democrat
ic papers are rather ludicrous when
one stops to think Of facts.
For instance, in one place they
state that more than twelve million
people were unemployed under Repub-
lican rule at Washington.
Isn't it the same today, under the
New Dealers, even after spending over
eight billions Of dollars on boondog-
Cling, relief, dole, Tugwell schemes,
and in building up a political machine
among those who are unfortunate and
cannot help themselves? VI"
In another place they speak of the
large amount of money, billions, sent
to foreign governments in loans.
These amounts were sent by individ-
uals and banks, and not by the Gov
eminent. But under the New Dealers,
by the program of scarcity in food
stuffs, millions and millions is being
paid to foreign countries for impor-
tation of food, while our farmers have
no products to sell.
And they speak of countries being
driven off the gold standard. Who
took America off the gold standard I?
None other than Roosevelt.
My one hope is that the Literary
Digest poll is showing definitely which
way the wind is blowing. 1t certainly
isn't blowing against the Elephant.

Sailing

President Roosevelt'S vacation cruise off the coast of Maine and Nova Scotia helps to explain statesman who puzzles many people Perhaps the key to Roose- velt's character and career is that he is essentially a sailor. He loves the water and seems to get his greatest satisfaction in driving windjammer through rough weather.
 The "Ship of State" is familiar figure of speech, and very ancient. Govern ment" comes from Latin word meaning the helm or tiller by which a vessel is steered. In Franklin Roosevelt'S case perhaps the figure is less fanciful than usual. He seems to steer state or fed eral government very much as he does yacht or fishing schooner.
 Landlubbers nowadays are likely to think of the Ship of State as steamship. That is hardly true picture, for seldom can the symbolic ship of government be kept on a straight compass course like a big modern liner. In Mir. Roosevelt's case the ship is certainly a sailing vessel,

International Science

When Leon Blum appointed the daughter of Pierre and Marie Curie to the office of Under-Secretary of State for Scientific Research, he established a precedent. Now, Mime. Joliot-C -Curie,. her. self scientist, does something new. As her first official act, she has appointed a committee to provide facilities for for- eign scientists to pursue researches in France. She will ask special appropri- ation to finance well-equipped research centers.
 "The time has passed" she said, "when great discoveries could be made with rudimentary equipment by scientists who built their apparatus with their own hands and made all calculations con- nected with their experiments" France, and other governments, might well pro- vide liberal aid for science. It would cost less and be worth far more to society than the war preparations for which they are spending so recklessly today.

Let's Take Notice

The Connecticut Engineering Congress, to be held at Bridgeport July 25, comes at a psychological moment This nation of ours Is gradually becoming engineer ing-minded. We have to, if we want to count on having nation that will be worth living in fifty years hence. And with so much talk right now of flood con- trol. soil erosion prevention, stream pol lution elimination, and the like, is 1t any wonder that more heed is paid to the counsel and advice of the engineering fraternity, particularly that cross-section of 1t devoting its attention to these ir1- portant national problems.
 Many matters, pertaining to the above subjects, will be discussed by the dele- gates at this coming Connecticut Con. Rress of Engineers. It will be of vital interest to the public, because we are con- cerned right now with control Of our rivers, so that at flood stage they may not endanger the lives and property or thousands of river valley residents. We are also concerned with soil erosion, although not to the extent of our western neighbors, where erosion is major prob lem threatening the extinction Of vast acres of productive land.
 Pollution is pertinent problem in this state, one we have attacked with consld- erable success, but not sufficient financ- ing to cope completely with it. That all such national problems as these may be solved scientifically goes without ques- ton. It simply remains for the Ameri- can people to display as much wisdom and foresight in making use of engineer ing means to cope with the situation. Now is the time to put into execution the plans that science has developed for de- feating waste Engineers can counteract every natural evil if but given the chance

frankly handled as such, and subject to the natural laws affecting such craft.
 The steamship pilot points his ship to- ward her destination and "holds her to it." regardless of wind and tide. The sailor pilot knows he can't sail straight against the wind, and doesn't try. When the wind is contrary, he "beats up into 1t" by tacking alternately to right and left, sometimes even turning to run back ward, or hauling down his sails and drift ing, until he gets a favorable breeze again.
 To landsman looking on, the course of a sailing vessel is naturally confusing and absurd. The craft is nearly always pointing somewhere else than it's sup posed destination. Observers are then surprised if they see it finally come about again on sudden slant and breeze into port.

Removal of the railroad underpass on Idylwood avenue extension between the Plank Road and Hamilton avenue would remove the last of the old-tilne structures of this nature. You know the kind - narrow and obscured. Only one car can pass under the trestle at one time. And vision on both sides of the underpass is blocked by its construction. To remove 1t it would be necessary to bring the road at this point up to the grade of the rail- road tracks and simply carry the roadway across the tracks on the same level. This might seem to be dangerous, but so few trains or engines pass over these tracks today that there is really little or no danger to pedestrian or vehicular traffic. A warning signal placed there should be sufficient to protect the crossing. And the proposed type of crossing would be much safer than the present dangerous little underpass, so unsuitable to modern day traffic needs.

Thomas Moynihan, well-known Bris- tol High School athletic coach, believes that children of Bristol are more rnali- cious than those in other communities.

Magistrate Blanchfeld of Brooklyn, N. Y, wins the public commendation to- day. Hearing a case against Karl Ko- lander recently the magistrate elicited the information that Karl was Finn and also without a job. The man said he didn't believe he could go on relief be- cause he was a Finn. Magistrate Blanch- field made 1t plain that native of any nation, like Finland, which has paid It's war debt to the United States so prompt ly and regularly didn't have to worry about his nationality in connection with a relief job. He was promised job.

Lots Of Activity

There seems to be a tremendous amount of activity in republican circles in Connec- ticut these days. It's particularly notice able because July heat waves usually re- suit in cessation of all political dis cussions and projections of candidates into the field. But evidently republicans believe that 1886 is their year or else that it is necessary to put on brave front. With this in mind they are marching for ward for introduction to the voting public by twos and threes.
 Not only are potentials presenting Themselves for approval as state canol- dates, but also for congressional offices. The only ones of the latter classification to be filled this year are the six congress sional seats, five districts, one at-large. Ever since ex-Congressman Edward w. Goss of Waterbury proclaimed his 1n- tention not to seek the nomination this year there has been an intense desire on the part of fifth congressional district republicans to catch his mantle.
 There are now at least five eligibles clamoring for the right to run against the present incumbent, Representative J. Joseph Smith, who naturally will be the standard-bearer of the democrats once again. Whether Representative Smith should be complimented by this demon stration or feel opposite reactions we don't know, but he seems to be weather ing the republican enthusiasm very nicely. And there's no reason why he shouidnt. By the time convention day rolls around in the fifth district there won't be SO many claims about g.op. landslides in Connecticut nor recapture of congressional districts. In some cir cles now, privately, of course, republi- cans wonder if they will hold Represerl- tative Merritt's district (provided he doesn't run) and Representative Higgins.

campaign, sailed for Europ'
 The tall, white-crested New York financier, one of the oldest friends of the President, came down to discuss the state of the nation. He took the occasion to tell Roosevelt very frankly that the New Deal was going too far and too fast to the Left.
 He told the President that busi- ness men were being alienated unreasonably, suggested that Roosevelt was letting his sym. pathy for labor drive him from his traditional middle-of-the-r cause.
 FDR In Huff
 Roosevelt did not take kindly to this criticism. Tn fact, he got noticeably sore.
 He told Baruch that business men had been much more un. reasonable in their uncompromiA- ing hostility toward New Deal policies. Instead of cooperating with the government to restore economic stability and solve the social problems facing the coi,n- try, the President said, big business had obstructed every measure he initiated.
 Miffed
 He had tried reason and con- ciliation, eRooscvelt maintained, but got nowhere.
 Baruch differed with the President on this, and for Q mos ment both men were definitely unified. It did not end that way, however.
 Before they parted Baruch told Roosevelt that he was taking his usual trip abroad, and the Presi- dent asked if he would not 90 to Sweden to study the Swedish co. operative system. Baruch said he would Do glad to make the study.
 Swedish System
 To half Q dozen people with whom he hos talked recently, the President has expressed great in. terest in the Swedish system.
 Already c New Deal commission, headed by Jake Baker, is in Sweden studying the system, and two or three other unofficial emissaries of the President have been asked to report.
 The Swedish plan IS based upon consumer c00perativeS which operate so cheapIy and so efficiently as to bring prices down for the poorer peo- pie.
 THE NET RESULT, as Roose- welt once remarked, is e royal family, 8 socialistic government, and capitalistic system all ex- isting side by side, and giving the Swedish people one of the best deals of any nation in Europe. Garner vs. Roosevelt

LITTLE FIELD Virginia Griley in the Christian Science Monitor The Carnival has gone And once again the little field Resigns itself to dusty musings. Here stood the ferris-wheel That carried breathless children up To share a brief vacation with the stars; Here galloped dainty hoofs Of painted horses, to a song Carefree and rhythmic with an endless joy. What matters now i'm summer sun Scorches the trampled grass, or winter adds A plaintive note of sooty snow. For two charmed nights it's face has known Such bright abandon as will last The seasons span. Until again the Carnival returns To plant anew the color and the light.

Wild flower depradations in the course of a year are threatening the existence of many species, according to nature students. Motorists have reached the point, they claim, where they are not satisfied with picking a few of these tender blooms, but they are uprooting them and carrying them off to their own backyards for transplanting. Some wild flowers will bear transplanting, but a great many can't exist save under their woodland or roadside environment.
