Homes That Remain Good

As home-building revives and new types of homes attract attention, some possessors of fine old homes have been worried about their property. Too many people building, selling and buying homes seem to have no Well-founded standards of taste, and are likely to take mere novelty or transient style or trivial de- tails as if they were all-important.
 It is reasSuring to hear from Herbert U. Nelson, secretary of the National ASso- citation of Real Estate Boards, that mere modernity, current style, flashiness or novel accessories are not likely to drive out the older homes that are really good. Tt is happy augury," he says, "that just at this time, when the building of homes in considerable numbers is re- opening, we should have strong move ment for the preservation of our old buildings of historical and architectural value, and decided public interest in the quality and charm of the homes of the past that have survived"
 He speaks with appreciation of the work done by the federal government, with the cooperation of architects, to preserve such dwellings along with other fine buildings of former decades. Every city and town has such homes worth preserving, and examples may be found in almost any residence section. They should not be torn down but kept up Many of them will doubtless be valued more highly generation hence than they are now. Good architecture never grows old.

Nazism Marches On

The regimentation of Germany pro- ceeds. By recent decree of the Nazi government, every German boy and girl is ordered into a gigantic state youth" organization, to be trained physically, spiritually and morally" The idea seems to be the nationalizing, or Nazifying, of German youth almost as completely as was done with the youth of ancient Sparta, the original National Socialist State.
 At the same time there are death penal ties provided for Germans who "un- scrupulously hoard their wealth in for eign lands and thus damage the national economy" That is to say, for German citizens putting their money into foreign banks or investments.
 There is also to be exploitation of min- eral resources" whether the owners like it or not, which seems to imply the na- tionalizing of mineral wealth. Such things, perhaps, are all right for those who like them. For citizens who don't like them, it is just too bad.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-12-07
A Thought for Today
Hard To Decide

It probably was and still is difficult problem for our city fathers to figure out the wisest course to take in setting up the 1887 budget. Faced with the alter native of continuing to reduce the tax rate, as has been done each year that the administration of Mayor Frank Hayes has made up the budget, or restoring part or all of the pay cuts given city employees those responsible for the new budget have evidently decided on the latter course of action. It is too bad that both plans cannot be set into execution. Perhaps had the city's grand list scared instead of dropping this would have been possible.
 However, we feel sure that year from now the story will be quite different. Not, of course, that restoration of pay cuts to all city employees will result in the great est upturn in business that Waterbury has seen in quite some time. The num- Der of persons actually affected by the five per cent wage return and the amount involved is not great enough to produce anything like this. But the move to re- store salaries to former pay levels is in keeping with what is taking place all over the nation. Waterbury, we presume, must keep step.
 Actually the tax rate decrease would have benefited more persons in Water hury than the other alternative. There are some 27,000 taxpayers listed on the city books, we believe. A quarter or half mill tax reduction to such large num- Der of taxpayers would mean quite lot of money, but it's money that the city doesn't get while the pay increases repre- sent money that is probably to come from maintaining the tax rate at it's present figure of 31.50 mills.
 There may be criticism of the local administration for not continuing it's policy of dropping the tax rate, but we're right at point now when too much is apt to be demanded and too little given. We can rely on the judgment of those responsible for the financial administra- ton of our city affairs. They haven't overlooked anything in the past to protect the city and it's citizens. The move for 1887 is continuation of policies success full in the past.

Home Ownership

Delegates to the convention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards, in New Orleans, emphasized the need for the broadest possible home own ership in America. Certainly the realty men should get the support of all classes in their effort to have that need met.
 It need not be repeated, of course, that the home-owning citizen is precisely the sort of solid, substantial citizen which democracy most needs. What might bet ter be emphasized is the fact that mil lions of our people are poorly housed, and that the building industry would be more than glad to supply homes for them if needs and purchasing power could just be tied together
 A great home-building boom would be just about the best thing that could happen to us. It would mean a better life for vast numbers of people, and 1t would furnish our rising prosperity with the most solid kind of base.

local newspaper office as a copy boy and worked his way up to star reporter. From his home town he went to Washington, en- tered Georgetown university and worked part-Nme on a Capital daily.
 After several years of Wash ington experience, including the covering of one session of con- gresS, Casey broke into New York journalism as city editor of a tabloid. From this job he went into publicity, and then back to his first love as 8 political writer on the New York Evening Jour nal. Casey remained with the Hearst organization until Ham, ilton wooed him away . few weeks ago.
 The new 6. o. p. press chief frankly admireS his ace rival, Charles Nicholson, and is equally frank to admit that he expects to adopt some of the democratic publicity mans methods.
 Charley knows his business" he says, "and I'm not swell headed"
 Casey also has made up his mind on one point of policy.
 "It would be a big mistake to start attacking Roosevelt right off the bat" he explains. "Ffis team Is carrying the ball and they are entitled to . few fumbles. Our job is to present our view point on specific is- sues as they arise and try to get our ideas Over."
 Casey,s reaction to brain trust CTS is typical of a Y1ewspaperman.
 T don't need any brain trlsters," he says. Eve always found that could get practic- ally all the information wanted from . newspaper lib- rary and m0rgue. And a few telephone calls or a little leg 0rk will fill in the gaps" Tit For Tat
 If Secretary Henry Wallace plans to revive the Supreme Court-blasted Triple-A at the coming session of congress, he is keeping it to himself.
 Knowing that Henry would shy off from a direct question on matter, newsman approached this matter, newsman ap- preached him circuitously in this way:
 "Mr. Secretary, did I under stand you to say that you definitely would not seek pro- duction control legislation?" willy query. With eyes twinkling
 Wallace smiled broadly at the he replied: T couldn't begin to cnumerate all the things we may not do at the coming session of congress"
 NOTE: Wallace was often guileless and unguarded when he first came to Washington, but now has become one of the deft- est dodgers of embarrassing ques- tons in the cabinet.

New York will certainly bedazzle the world with the brilliance of the fair that it will throw open to all corners in 1889. Just the advance plans and notices that are being sent out by the directors of the commission in charge are enough to ex- cite the imagination of the most phleg- matic person. It's an odd thing, too, that the site selected for the fair grounds, Flushing Meadow Park, is one of the most accessible undeveloped regions in Manhattan. All modes of transportation pierce and parallel the section. It means, of course, that New York can plan to ac- commodate hundreds of thousands daily at the anticipated spectacle.

 Christmas in Hartford" Faces Legislators.
HARTFORD coURANT

The confusion as to methods is increased by the approach of an- other session of Congress, when it Is probable that the Wagner Hous- ing Bill will make its appearance with some changes and with 8 much better prospect of passage than 1t enjoyed last summer. In his campaign President Roosevelt spoke of 1t in these terms: We need ac- ton and more action to get better city housing. Senator Wagner and I had hoped for a new law at the last session of the Congress. We who believe in better housing have not been defeated. I am confident thai the next Congress will start us on our way with a sound housing pol icy"
 In November MT. Ickes gave 8 hint of future policy when he told the Conference of Mayors that "all orus might as well get over the idea at once that the Federal Gov ernment will continue indefinitely to do all the work. The job will be turned over to you" Simultaneous ly Senator Wagner indicated that the bill he will offer at the next session will reduce the amount of the federal grant to 30 per cent with federal guaranty of 20 per cent of the loans negotiated by To- calities to meet the remainder oi the cost.
 Whatever the proportion of fed eral participation, 1t seems certain that grants will be made only tc States having housing authorities and to cities and towns setting ur local authorities under state law So far twenty-two States have en- acted such legislation and local au. thorities exist in nineteen munic. qualities and one county. Tn New Jersey and Maryland statewide housing authorities have been es. tablished. Among the powers granted are those to acquire prop erty by eminent domain, to accept grants from the Federal Govern. ment and to incur debts separate from those of the municipality Property of the authority would bt tax-exempt, but the authority would be permitted to pay the cits on a contract for police. fire anc other services.
 If only g part of these problems are thoroughly threshed out, the prospect of an early adjournment of the special session seems slight

Out in Toledo citizens are both praising and criticizing the parking meters that the city has installed. Recently one irate motorist, charged with parking his car without making use of the meter, carried the matter into the courts, but found that on several points he couldn't dis lodge the city law governing the installa- tion and use of the meters. He charged, for example, that the U. s. constitution was violated in that municipalities hold streets in trust for citizens and the use of parking meters did not conform, but the court failed to uphold him on this point nor did it hold that the patronage of meters by motorists constitute double taxation, also unconstitutional. More and more it is being found out that streets are just about what we make them. We park our cars; we don't park them; we complain; we praise. In the end we look for a solution and when one is brought forward, we're still divided.

Nazi Revenge

The award of the Nobel peace prize to Carl vonOssietzky, who has spent three years in a German concentration camp, shows Nazi Germany what the outside world thinks of it's little ways. And the official Nazi reaction to the award ought to show the outside world that the worlds attitude is quite correct.
 Understandably enough, the Nazis are furious. A government spokesman made rather sinister remark about the case: "If disruptive elements wish to ral- ly behind the name of Won Ossietzky, we shall have to reconsider our position in regard to him."
 Consider the facts for moment. Won Ossietzky spent three mortal years in prison and came out with his health ruined. He is now struggling to recover in a Berlin hospital. But, say the all- powerful German leaders, if the outside world is going to make too much fuss about him, we shall get even. We shali throw him right back into prison!
 It is a terrible thing to see the govern ment of great nation actuated by the motives of schoolyard bully.
