New Haven property owners, particu- larly those who operate businesses where large quantities of water are used, are returning to the good old days when every man had a well in his front or back yard. Right in the heart of the city, if you penetrated to the basements, you would find many an artesian well already sunk or in the process of being sunk. And the reason seems to be the high cost of water in New Haven. Whether or not this is an argument for municipal owner ship of all water supplies is left to the readers decision. But New Havenites are digging wells so that their air-condition- ing and refrigerating plants may be run economically. And as result of drawing on these natural supplies bills are being cut down from annual figures of $200 and $500 to mere $20. Air conditioning is solely responsible for the movement back to wells. It's claimed they pay for them- selves in year

The four states affected by the flow of the Connecticut River now seems to be already to get action of proposed flood control measures. At recent session representatives of Connecticut, Massa- chusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire organized as the New England Water Re- sources Commission. And since Congress has approved the omnibus flood control measure sur oaS assuring New England of at least least control schemes, such as the ten reser- voirs, the states are right in line ready to back up each and every suggested idea. That's the proper cooperation.

The Queen Mary must have had 8 somewhat barren look when she sailed from New York Friday. According to of- ficials of the liner the visitors who thronged aboard the boat when docked took everything they could remove for a souvenir Not only were small things taken, but objects requiring use of a screw-driver or wrench were found miss ing, The toll is probably the highest in marine history. It can't be called kleptomania.

not abandoned their efforts. If they can't win him over, their strategy is at least to keep him from going on the warpath. In the latter aim, 50 far, they have been successful. Despite repeated threats to go after Laildon, Borah has side-stepped a public attack.
 The Landon managers think that if he can be kept from erupting ct Cleveland, the danger point will be safely passed. They figure that after the campaign he will be too busy running for re- election as senator to go on Q rampage against the national ticket. He may sulk but he won't take a walk"
 So their only big worry is Cleveland and Hoover's presence there. If the combination sets off Borah, the ensuing uproar may wreak havoc with their carefully laid plans.
 Secret Speech
 What Hoover will say no one knows. He has kept his own coun- sel and has not consulted any of the regular party leaders. Only word about his speech is that he has told friends he hopes to make it the greatest effort of his career.
 Nervous Land0nltes don't know whether this bOdes good or III. But they hope for the best.
 Meanwhile BOrah waits grim- ly.
 "We'I see " hat we shall See," he says.

Selected Poem
TLoWER.GIRLs
tBy Lucy Larcom in the Boston Post)

(By Lucy Larcom in the Boston Post) Oh, my little seaside girl,
 What in your garden growing? "Rock-weeds and tangie grass,
 With the slow tide coming, going; Sapphire and marsh-rosemary
 All along the wet shore creeping; Sandwort, beach-peas, pimpernel,
 Out of hooks and corners peeping" Oh, my little prairie girl,
 Whats in bloom among your grasses? Spring -beatuies, painted cups,
 Flushing when the south wind passes: Beds of rose-pink centuary;
 Compass flowers to northward turning; Larkspur, orange-gold puccoon;
 Leagues of lilies fiame-red burning" Oh, my little mountain girl,
 Have you anything to gather? 'White everlasting bloom,
 Not afraid of wind or weather: Sweet-briar leaning OCT the crag
 That lady-fern hides under Harebells, violets white and blue;
 Who has sweeter flowers, wonder?" Oh, my little maidens three,
 will lay your pretty posies, Sea-scented, cloud-bedewed,
 Prairie grasses, mountain roses, On bed of shells and moss;
 Come and bend your bright heads nearerI Though your blossoms are so fair,
 You three human flowers are deareri

A Book a Day
Returns with Grim Picture of Europe
BY BRUCE CAPTION

@~@SCOAS OesS - OAN
 John J. Spiyak, well.known American reporter, embarked on . six-Ynonth tour of Europe with full warning. He was told by resident correspondents that if he wanted to report what actually was happening under postwar Relationships, he must see, hear, and shut up-in other words, put off his writing lin- til he returned home.
 spivak did just that and the re- Sultant book, Europe Under the Terror" (Simon and Schuster, 426O) Is one of the most revealing slants on the European scene that have read. But, let me caution you, 1t Is essentially pessimistic. For Spivak's European fact-flnd ing tour, conducted among the peo- pie themselves, thoroughly disillus- toned him about dictators.
 'The picture I came beck with" {" he tells you, "is an almost unbeliey- able one of economic disintegration 1: of peoples. in some countries, being ground down to living conditions only a step removed from those of coolies.
 "In Fascist countries. I found crushed and oppressed people care- fully and cautiously organizing, marking time while the govern ments frantically sought to find and imprison them"
 These are the "terrors" that ride through John Spivak's book. And there Is another terror, even worse that of hunger.
 He tells you, for instance, that the people of the Carpathian- Russ section of Czechoslovakia are lit- orally starving. And that, in turn, such hunger is having it's profound effect on the political life of each country wherein 1t abounds.
 If you like history conversations al, unvarnished, and straight from the shoulder in the Duranty style, you'll appreciate spivak's book.

Editorial Comment on Old Guard Campaign

Speaking before the Maine re- publican convention, Senator stei- wer stated that recovery of business commenced when the throttline hold of NRA was removed from the throat of business! The senator vot- cd for NRA, for the AAA and the amendments to AAA which were put through to try and save 1t from the block. He led the fight against the presidents economy act. Either the senator's memory is extraordinarily short or he disregards entirely his own part in what he chooses to call the 'fumbling' of the present admin istration." Erie Times, (Ind. Rep.)
 Marquis W. Childs tells in the May Harper's Why They Hate Roosevelt And thus is written one of the most appalling of all reasons why recovery is g struggle, and why, while the New Deal tries to give the Yt1ungry bread, the Liberty League gives them pamphlets" ."- Portland, Ore, Journal. (Rep)
 "'Down with dog food,' shouts Senator Dickinson, but not down through the alirnentary canal. With an issue that all can comprehend and with a candidate like Sen. Dickinson to espouse 1t, the election is already as good as won" n."-Hartford Courant (Rep).
 "Voters are not being fooled by Gov. Landon's announced policies, nor are they impressed by the pro- posal that forces that all but coln- pletely wrecked the nation be re- turned to power. Opposition to the New Deal has been aptly called Q ghost opposition, with republicans embracing basic principles of the Roosevelt program while they ask the country to permit them tc operate the machinery built by the President" ."-Springfleld, Mass, News (Ind.)
 Roosevelt is the spearhead and the spirit of American liberalism He is the interpreter of the philo- sophy of equal justice, social jus tice, economic justice. Sioux City Tribune. (Ind)
 "An advantage the democratic national ticket will enjoy this year is one the republican party ex. plotted with considerable effect ir the days of its long ascendancy. 4 republican national administration could not have the support of Con- gress, for the senate will remain democratic through the next fouI years. When the people are asked to change party policies at this critical stage of recovery, with nc certainty whatever except Q dead lock between a republican house and democratic senate, they can re- call with profit the once highly re- spected g. o. p. precept: Let well enough alone'."-Louisville Courier. Journal. (Ind)
 "In his radio interview, Gov Isandon put 1t this way: You never can tell how Q hoss will work til you hitch him. That's @ fact, Ali And here's another: The American people aren't going to switch Presi- dential horses this year-eSpecially not for Q horse from the Hearst stables who won't tell where he fl headed" - Philadelphia Record (Ind)
