Dictators "Old Stuff"

Political scraps among the nations of Central America have made little news items for United States readers for years. And noting that another general had stormed palace and upset president, or that group of rebels were besieging the legislature, our general reaction was a tolerant smirk and the light observa- ton that "boys will be boys" Now, fil- tering out of the jungle-bound capitals of the isthmus, comes a more disturbing piece of news It is the warning cry that the bad boys there are tinkering with ideas "borrowed' from the transatlantic fascist "iron men,.
 On the face of the report that Guate- mala, Fl Salvatore and Honduras have set up bloc of Relationships for their mutual protection against disturbing ele- ments coming across the border" there might at first seem to be some basis for the alarm. At the bottom of the move ment is the fact that presidents of two of the nations are serving second. terms contrary to constitution. General Tibuf- cia Carias Andino of Honduras, inaugur- ated February l, 1883, for a four-year term, Is still in office. General Jorge Ubico, president of Guatemala, inaugur- ated February l4 1881, for a six-year tcrm, also is still in office. These two men, with General MaXimiliano Martinez of ElSalvador hold the reins for more than four and half million people, in- cluding political prisoners, estimated at from 1,50o to 5000 in Honduras alone
 Many page in these dictators' tactical handbook parallels those followed in European Relationships. Presidential palaces are guarded with machine guns; only the army Is paid decent wages, and in some cases only the army Is paid at all; substantial "menaces" are perpetu- ated for propaganda purposes. Guate- mala and Fl Salvador have adopted Com- munism as their "bete noir," while Hon. duras still Is satisfied to have the ele- mentary common rebel and soldier of fortune "gnawing at its institutions"
 Just how this fascist" concept man. aged to get its start and grow to such proportions so quickly, thousands of miles from the Italian and German centers of political holiness, really isn't so mysterl- ous. The fact Is that the one-man, strong-arm dictatorship type of govern ment was In vogue in Central and South America before Mussolini and Hitler were born. Testifying to this are the long years which United States marines and diplomats vainly spent trying to democratize the governmental processes of some of these temperamental new world nations.
 If anyone is afraid, then, that Central America Is doomed to be ravaged by the germ of fascism and dictatorship, he need only refer to the history of that area to learn that its politicos can give any tyrant on earth cards and spades and beat him hands down at the tricks of the trade.

High Cost of Being Killed

7 It costs more to be killed today than 1t did prior to July 1. At least the Connecticut General Assembly inter- preted the present-day situation in this light, for on July l new law went into effect in this state allowing $15000 as the maximum award that courts may make for damages in accidental death claims. Heretofore the maximum award has been set at $10,000 and most policies issued in this state in the past few years have usually provided for that sum, as well as $5,000 for property damage. This comes strikingly soon after the Waterbury dis trict managed to secure long-sought reduction in liability insurance rates.
 The increase in rates provided the car owner, jacks up his liability from $10000 to $15,000 is not excessive. 1t runs around $2.50, so we learn. And incl dentally it is not compulsory upon the part of any motoriSt save those who have come before the Motor Vehicle Depart ment on certain causes and are com pelled to carry liability insurance to take out added insurance. For that matter liability insurance is not compulsory in this state, but it shows good judgment on the part of most motorists that ma jority have such protection.
 The increase in the maximum award is quite commentary on our present day values of motor injuries and deaths. One of the complaints of insurance un- derwriters is that the courts are too gen. erous in awards made in claims result ing from motor crashes and which in- volve settlement by an insurance firm. This was claimed to be particularly true n the case of Waterbury where the liabil- ky rates have been notoriously high for many years. It's hard to see why the swards would he any higher or their fre-

The Busy Bee Hive

While scientists do their best to con- vince ordinary nortals that bees aren't always busy and that comparisons to the busy bee don't convey accuracy, nothing conveys the meaning better than to describe certain actions as like those around a bee hive. We only mention this for in the last week or so many of Water bury's streets have buzzed with action. Just visit the scene of one of the several road-building projects and see If you don't think so. And by the way, have you noticed how rapidly the jobs are being rushed to completion.
 The way workmen put the east side of Exchange Place between East Main and the Apothecaries Hall building into shape for traffic was something to talk about. Everything was done as If a set of blue prints had been drawn for the job. Oper- ations proceeded along scheduled lines. AS one part of the work was finished men were waiting to start the next step. And as result we have one side of the street ready and waiting to be used. We pre- surne this will be the procedure all along ! the line.
 Certainly there can be no complaints from householders and merchants about delays. There can't be any question about inconvenience, for the work simply couldn't be done without providing some inconvenience. But when you see big paving projects like those now being at- tempted carried along smoothly and rap- idly you can only marvel at the effi- ciency of modern construction and en- gineering In doing this you forget or overlook the dirt and the noise and the bumps and the lack of parking places along your favorite thoroughfare.

Five Small BlisterS
May Be Secret of How Fire Walkers Perform Amazing Stunts of Treading Barefoot
 Over Glowing Goals.
NEW YORK SUN

foot trench over red-hot emberS the surface temperature of which was 4i2 degrees Centigrade, Early this month Ahmed Hussain, from Cawnpore. demonstrated the mys- tery of flrewalking twice, first on April ', when he walked twelve feet over embers with a surface temperature of 576 degrees Cent. grade. Members of the University of London Council again watched; after Hussains first walk he tried second, this time with four vol- unteers following in his footsteps. After the two experiments Hus- Sains feet were perfectly normal, but all the volunteers had bliStered feet to show for their experiment.. On April Q Hussain repeated his exhibition, this time with Q trench twenty feet in length instead of twelve feet and with embers brought to Q surface temperature of TAO degrees Centigrade instead of the 67b degrees Centigrade Of the previous experiment. Hussain gave but one exhibition Of fire- walking and after he had traversed the twenty-foot trench his feet were examined and Ave small blls- ters were found on his left foot and a sign of blistering on the right foot.
 These bliSters may bring scien. tiAc observers closer to the secret of firewalking. On his first .ap- pearanoe Hussain required but three steps and e second and @ half to walk the length Of the trench. On the second occasion the heightened fire trench com pelled him to take six steps and kept him on the embers for nearly twice as long as on his first ap- pearance. Like Kuda Bux, Hus- sain complained of the number of spectators of the delay in the starting of the experiment, of the number of instruments placed in the embers to ascertain the tem- perature, and of the arrangements for broadcasting; he insisted that oil these things upset him. yet on both occasions he walked calmly across the hot embers. The dis- play of artistic temperament by firewalkers may be amusing, but 1t does not help to explain fire- walking. Ernest s. Thomas sought to explain 1t In Nature year ago by giving credit to the presence of ashes on the embers for part of the protection to the firewalker and to the callosity of the skin on the fire walkers feet for the rest. Hussains latest experiment seems to indicate that a professional firewalker can get his feet burned if he permits himself to be persuaded by scien. tists to walk a longer trench than is usual in the trade.

gerrymandering, Arkansas (Joe's State) Is in the eighth circuit with Minnesota. But since Miu- nesota already has @ man on the bench--Pierce Butler-the plan of appointing a judge for each circuit would not have helped Joe ct all. To get his Supreme Court appointment he would have had to wait for Justice Butler to die or retire. rts .'@ttQl
 So Robinson turned thumbs down and went Into . sulk.
 But shortly after the resigna- ton of Justice Van Devanter, Joe galvanized into action. Reason was that Roosevelt conveyed to him the idea that while he, Rob- inson, could not be appointed as @ lone judge, he could be'appoiat. cd among 6 panel of several younger men. Robinson and Garner
 Joe Robinson was e great icad- CT, and from that point on he put his heart and soul into the fight. Had he lived, Roosevelt would have won.
 Joe's death gave Jack Garner Che opportunity t0 return and assume command in the senate.
 Lest July, when Roosevelt and Garner accepted their ncmina- tons at the Philadelphia conven- ton, Jack looked up at the stars and swore to follow his "leadcr" wherever he might lead But by the time he arrived In Washing ton after the Robinson funeral, Jack had relegated the oath to the limbo of politicians promises
 For, when he talked to the President just after his arrival. Garner said that Q comproEiiSe was possible. But to Senator Burt Wheeler, leader of the op- position, he sang another song. He told Burt to write his own ticket. Also he inspired seven wabbly democrats to 60 down to the White House and tell the President they would vote againEt him.
 At this point Roosevelt sur.
 rendered. Today some very
 harsh words about the vice president are heard around Che

LEVITT RESIGNS
Bridgeport Times-Star)

NbrluBeporL 1lmeS~SLar)
 Albert Levitt of Bedding the inde- pendent republican who has been a somewhat uniquc member of Attor- ney General Homer s. Cummings official family for the past four years, has been wide awake enough to know that his charmed existence on Homer's payroll was near an end, and has submitted his resigna- ton.
 Even the most hopeful Utopians wondered how long the genteel att torney general could humanly con- tinue to harbor in his department bosom spirit who repeatedly dared to go out of his way to speak his own mind, and a mind not at all in sympathy with administration pol- icy, on various issues.
 It wasn't according to the rules of the political game.
 In his letter of resignation, Mir. Levitt professed himself grateful. for the privilege" of serving under Mr. Cummings.
 We suspect, however. that we shall hear more, in the due course of events. from Mir. Levitt. If he kicked over the traces while on the payroll, he's now almost certain to seek his place among those early friends of the New Deal who, for one reason or another. now range themselves nmoue ifs critical enemies.

Selected Poem

(Harold c. Murray in the Poets Column,
 Hartford CouranD The boatman beckons me with grisly hand His boat dips to the falling tide, To guide me to the silent land The twilight deepens by the water side. My life's swift journey there must shortly end I do not fear to cross the sea To face what judgment may attend Or what the future holds in keep for me. I would have better builded with days To fully round the things I've planned, And selfless earn my neighbor's praises The boatman beckons me with grisly hand. If could only take to that far land The racing shadow on hill, Salt breezes blowing down the sand, The wild grapes odor or the deep woods still. A ship at sea, a waving field of wheat face that time has made more dear. The sound of little chldren's feet Some thing know and love and cherish here The boatman beckons me with grisly hand His boat dips to the falling tide To guide me to the silent land; He beckons me and will not be denied.
