ALBERT LEVITT
 IS COMING BACK
Returning From Virgin Islands to Take Part in
 Coming Campaign

Albert Levitt of Bedding, who a few years ago attempted to form an independent republican bloc in Connecticut along with William J. Pape of this city, so as to force the busting of J. Henry Roraback from his post of g. o. p. state chairman, will be on his way back soon rom the Virgin Islands to harrass the Landon forces in this locality. It has been announced from the Vir- gin Islands, where Professor Levitt has been serving as a federal dis trict judge, that he has rendered his resignation to President RooSe- welt.
 Row Is Reported
 His resignation is supposed to be the cause of a "row" with the island administration. But insiders in the democratic and republican organi- zation of Connecticut are reported to be laughing up their sleeves. Levitt did much to aid President Roosevelt in Connecticut four years ago and while he and Publisher Pape have parted the ways, 1t IS ex- pected that he will be in the Nut meg state soon doing his cam paigning, to remain until after the state and national election has been put out of the way in November.

LIGHT AND HEALTH

Electric lights of the future will be
health-giving as well as light-giving, de-
clares an engineering publication. 1t is
well known that quartz mercury lamps
which radiate the beneficial ultraviolet
rays have been used by physicians for
some time. But these have required ex-
pert and careful handling.
Now, it appears, lamps giving off
these healthful rays have been developed
for use in general lighting, thus perform
ing double duty. In fact, such lamps are
already available, but so far their use has
been restricted principally to home treat
ment of diseases in which sunlight or its
equivalent is necessary.
When the new lamps are adopted for
general use, as it is believed they event
'ually will be, it is expected that they will
be of immense benefit, especially to indoor
workers who have little contact with the
health-giving rays of natural sunlight.

The Citizen has been queried with a
degree of vehemence during the past few
days why the bids for the construction of
the bridges are to be let in Miami and not
in Key West, which is the headquarters of
the Overseas Road and Toll Bridge Dis
trict. If the inaccessibility of Key West is
cited as the cause, then that excuse can
not apply to either Tallahassee or Jack
sonville, which are certainly not as in
accessible as is Miami at the foot of the
peninsula of Florida. If there were no
Key West the need of a completed high
way would not exist. and there is JUS
tifiable reason why the island city should
be the beneficiary of the contemplated
construction to the fullest extent. The

The Citizen has said several times
that if every American workman would
only be privileged to go to Europe he
would be much better satisfied with his
lot in this country. In Europe most of our
necessities are still luxurieS over there.
And conditions have constantly improved
since 1879. The wages of 1886 are twelve
times those of 81 years ago; the workers
purchasing power has increased rs per
cent, and the weekly working hours have
been reduced from 60 to AZ. The Amer
lean way is the better way.
