Great Days Coming

Residents of Waterbury who have been watching progress on the athletic field up on Watertown Avenue are well pleased with the transformation that has oc- cured at the old driving park. You would have to look closely to see or trace any vestiges of the former gathering spot for hundreds of sport-loving Waterbur- fans of twenty-five, thirty, and more years ago. The familiar old scene IS changed what with steam-shovels, trucks, and human hands busy all day long max. ing modern sports plant with the aid ot WPA funds
 It will be many days before the site be- gins to look like what 1t IS intended TOT, but most of the rough work IS practically finished. So far as can be judged by the average layman the field has been filled in as much as will be needed. The neces- sary drainage work is also completed Other little details, too, have been taken care of which those passing by can't see nor would they know about them until told The finishing touches in making baseball diamonds, running tracks, foot ball grIdirons still is to come.
 Likewise the important job of building a suitable grandstand and clubhouse must be taken care of. That necessarily follows the completion of the grounds. Hut the city can be assured that when the project Is completed Q long-felt want is going to be supplied We have been crying for and demanding just such an athletic field as this for our public schools. The answer Is at hand Let us be properly thankful and appreciative by istifizif1p it properly,

Prospect Invaded

It must have been quite shock to re. publicans of our neighboring town of Prospect to awake the other morning to find that democrats of the 14th senator ial district which includes Prospect, have decided to hold the senatorial convention there. Not in recent years, certainly, and probably never has Pros pect been so honored by the convention of major political party. The town is all agog and talking of this incident as It has talked of nothing else.
 Republicans even are forced to admit that the democrats have stolen a march on them by bringing the convention into a staunch gop. center. Prospect has been republican for 50 many years you cant count them. But that didn't mean any thing to the democratic leaders Of the 14th district. AS a reward for the me work that Town Chairman Daniel Con- nor and his coworkers have been doing Tn recognizing the party organization they decided to honor the committee by let ting them entertain the convention.
 Even republicans will be interested in the convention, although they won't have q voice in it's doings.

were sold by tho pound, however, tho 1885 average price would have been 2i cents Q pound. ft was 30 cents in 1925. The l0S6 purchasers good fortune Is even clearer when horsepower Is used as the basis for figuring price. Last years cars averaged S7 per horsepower, against $27.B0 ia 1925.
 The car owner has known he had Q better car in 10SB than ten years earlier. It was more comfortable, ran better, cal led for fewer repolrs, and 80 on. There were, also, more low and medium priced cars, suited to his purse, from which to choose. It Is little to be wondered At that nearly three out of every four motor vehicles in the world are owned in the United States. American manufacturers know how to make cars that sell and American drivers know good buy when they see 1t,

Human Snails

Will automobile trailers solve the hous- ing problem2 They may, if some ob- servers arc guessing right. They are said to be already about million automotive Americans crawling around this country somewhat like snails, only faster, with their houses on their backs, Roger Bab- son, whose forecasts in more strictly busi- ness matters have been fulfilled countless times, says in 20 years half the popula- ton of this country will be on the move, living in trailer-flats.
 Most of these pioneers are on the way from somewhere to somewhere else, and really have some place they call home, to which they return in due time. But in- creasingly trail-dwellerS abandon their anchors and keep on the move indefinite. ly and rather aimlessly, like gypsies. If many millions of us are going to live in trailers all or most of the time, obviously we don't need so many houses.
 It may be well, though, not to take that for granted and abandon building plans. A nation isn't going to change It's living habits so completely in year, or q score of years. If for no other reason, the big majority of us will continue to be teth- cred by our jobs. A lot of nomads, too, will get tired of roaming and decide to settle down and bring up the children in Q civilized way.

Making Holiday

We Americans think we're the worlds greatest tourists and Vacationers, But the English people may beat us at our own game. Over there, where 2 vacaton or any length is q holiday" they arc cer. tainly busy galllvanting now. According to the London Observer, 10000 peo' ple in Great Britain, more than one- fourth of the population, have "gone on holiday" this summer.
 Most of them, like us, go travelling and summer.resorting in their own country. England is full of pleasant places and most Of them are within easy reach. Thus, although few drive automobiles they can get where they want to go quickly enough by bicycle or afoot. There Is surprising amount of seashore as lure for pedes- trianS.
 As for the rest, they arc going this summer in large numbers to Belgium and Switzerland, where living IS cheap now for outsiders, and even to Germany and Italy. lately unpopular Why so much holidaying2 Because England IS pros porous again. Her depression began long before ours, and seems to have run it's course.
 We ourselves are doing very well, too, as anyone can see from the traffic on roads, trains and planes. But our spirit and method are different. More than the English, we rest by going somewhere fast and trying to pack a whole years exercise into two weeks.

Governor Cross talks refreshingly on the state of the unbalanced budget and It's deficit. Every time republican or- ator opens his mouth on this subject the nation Is plunged Into dismal pit, one of those bottomless ones. But Governor Cross points out that Uncle Sam incurred a deficit and unbalanced his budget to give jobs to thousands of needy persons Over in Europe nations did the same thing, but merely to build up huge armies and navIes with which they might threat en and war on neighboring countries. That's the other side of the Atlantic, thank goodness.
