Four Freedoms

It is well said by Walter Lippmann, in recent newspaper article on freedom of the press, that "the press can never de- fend it's own liberties alone," but must also, for it's own sake, defend "the whole system of liberties = the rights of all individuals" Prominent among the other liberties closely related to freedom to-print are the ones expressly mentioned in the same bill of rights in the federal Constitution - freedom of speech, assem- bly, and petition. Given these four rights the right to talk, the right to assemble for discussion, the right to publish, and the right to talk, the right to assemble for discussion, the right to publish, and the right to protest or appeal directly to public executives and lawmakers - society: can pretty well look out for it's other interests.
 With these guarantees, however, doubt less belongs general freedom of com munication outside of the fields mem tioned. This means particularly freedom to broadcast, radio as free as the press. It means also freedom of the telephone and telegraph, and of television or any other means of direct, distant communi- cation that may be devised The one that probably needs most attention at present is radio freedom.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-01
Rebuilding Cities

The slowing down of population, if an evil, is not an unmixed one. Here is an interesting comment made on the subject by an expert who has been making an inventory of property and people in one of the larger cities, formerly growing so fast that 1t could not keep up with it's needs
 "The birth rate showed slight i11- crease last year, after reaching its low in 1934 It is now about half the old nor mai. Immigration has been shut off and more people have been going back than have been coming. Our problem for the next 10 to 30 years will not be to provide for great increases in population, but to provide for a steady, but slow increase, while rebuilding our cities and providing better living places.
 He is pleased with present construction activity. Tt is not forced construction" he says, as it was in the old days, "but construction that is demanded by the facts" Cities will have time, knowledge and means, he believes, to make them selves during the next two Or three de- cades more comfortable, more convenient, more useful and beautiful, than ever before. And America may show the world how to build finc modern cities
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-01
Honest People

Recently guests and employees of a hotel were sent unceremoniously out of the dining room when some one, by accident or as a cruel practical joke, discharged tear gas fountain pen. It was past mid night and many of the guests had been getting ready to leave, but their depart ilre became pell-mell flight.
 Walters were much perturbed and ran frantically from group to group on the lawn trying to identify patrons who had not had an opportunity to pay their checks before the gas routed them. Their anxiety proved unnecessary. Not a single customer took advantage of the confusion or the unpleasant situation to cheat the waiter or abuse the hotel management. They all stuck atround until the financial settlements could be taken care of.
 Most people are essentially honest. They don't rob or cheat each other in their personal affairs, even when the op- pOrtunity is as easy as this one. It is we'll to remember that when cynics claim naeanness, selfishness, greed and decep- tien as outstanding human character istics.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-01
A Thought for Today
Means But One Thing

The mere fact that Mayor Thomas J. Spellacy of Hartford publicly endorsed Governor Wilbur L. Cross and Lieutenant Governor Frank Hayes for their respec- tive offices at the state convention next September adds to the under-current of feeling in this state of recent days. If there was any thought that this would be a good year for Governor Cross to step aside in favor of some other favorite son of the democratic party, it has been disSipated by events of recent days. The democratic party now looks as if 1t was ready to align itself solidly behind it's present office-holders and return them all to power.
 At such an early stage of the campaign that is a good sign. It means, too, that the forthcoming state convention to elect delegates to the national conven- ton will be one of the most harmonious democrats have held in recent presiden- tial years. There will be but one candi- date in mind, President Franklin D. Roosevelt. With such singleness of pur- pose 1t should be apparent to most electors that the democrats are going to approach the November polls with even more determination and strength than they did two years ago. This will win many votes.
 Not since 1880 and 1882 has there ap- parently been such a united effort in be- half of Governor Cross. This In itself IS significant, if one cares to analyze. We wouldn't construe it to mean that demo- cratic leaders are convinced that with out Cross at the head of the ticket their cause is hopeless. It might be that with Cross at the head of ticket in 1936 the blow that will practically destroy the republi- can party in Connecticut and perhaps rip asunder rural control of the LegiS- lature can be struck.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-01

Waterburians interested in street safety programs should read with care the two articles that ran in the Democrat Wednes- day and Thursday nights. They dealt with conditions in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Evanston, Illinois, and how they were corrected to the point that both communities now rank as the safest in the country from an accident standpoint. There were some interesting points in the two articles, many of which could well be adopted by any city or town that was desirous of promoting street safety One thing in particular that struck us was the fact that no more consideration was given the motorist than the pedestrian. Efforts were made to take care of both at street crossings and intersections. Evi- dently the system of street traffic through signals has been worked out to high de- gree of mechanical and engineering per- faction in Milwaukee. It is worth con- sidering for Waterbury.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-01
Improvement Noted

Improvement in the condition of coastal as well as river waters of Con- necticut is noted by William J. Farley, State PWA head. Included in the PWA program for the state, he points out, are many projects involving sewage treat ment plants, as well as expansion and improvement of sewage systems. AS a result of this activity MT. Farley expects that pollution of streams in this state should soon start to show decrease. We really wonder if the thing will work out that way.
 We're not so sure that any state river or Long Island Sound beaches near to communities where there is no treat ment of raw sewage will show a greater or lesser degree of pollution, so long as pollution by one town or city continues. Judging by what has been said about the Naugatuck river it's question of all or known subscribing to the theory of non- pollution. However it is encouraging to see that WPA funds will be devoted to such projects as sewers and sewage plants.
 There are sixteen cities and towns in the state being added to the list of those that already have adopted modern methods of treating sewage rather than the lazy-man method which we have fol- lowed for SO many years. The total cost of the changes in this state is $7,111 ,000. Slightly over two million of this is furn- ished by the federal government The day is going to come, though, when every community in single river system is go- ing to band together to end pollution. Connecticut should be progressive enough to anticipate this.

Whether duplicate bridge can be rated as gambling game to be classed in the same category as poker, craps, roulette, etc., seems to be up to New York magis- trates A prominent Park avenue bridge club was one of several places raided by Gotham police Wednesday. Prominent national bridge players were quite aroused by the incident and protested heartily the action of the New Yorw police. They claim there is no comparison between the above mentioned pastimes. Bridge, they say, particularly duplicate where all players ultimately play the same hands, is a contest of skill and not chance. But the police claim that the stakes will bring out the comparison.

Selected Poem

EVENING took my way to the river To watch scanty sun Drop slowly down beyond the hill Another journey done. No smallest sound pierced the stiffness The pine trees seemed to brood The birds had found their place of rest And slept in quietude Then of sudden came the geese Flying with swift intent, A hundred shapes against the gray watched them as they went.
 CELIA CHRISTENSEN, in the
 Poets Corner, Hartford Times)
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-01

one of the chief behind-the-scenes sponsors of the Smith-Kerr Act, grew up in the tobacco fields, has "done everything with tobacco ex- cept chew it, from burning the planting bed, to laying out through the night tending the fires in the curing sheds"
 Merry GO-ROund
 without benefit of clergy, the Senate is galloping along toward adjournment. Only twice since January 16 has 1t called upon the services of its chaplain, Reverend ZeBarney T. Phillips, to open de- Alterations with prayer. Joe Robinson, democratic leader of the Senate, always brings 8 lighted cigar to the floor of the Chamber, smokes it until the stroke of noon, when the gavel falls. Alfred B. Smith has an office on the sev- enth floor of the Walker Johnson building, under Harry Hopkins. He is a Negro, charged with hand- ling correspondence with Negroes on WPA projects. Plant spe- cialists in agriculture advise ship pers of fresh vegetables to warm up" their ice before shipping, lest 1t freeze the vegetables in transit.
