Men Still excel"

TELL me-" Mrs. Holton leaned
l. forward, "have you forgot
ten that in every kind of a job,
and in every art, men excel
women?"
The alumnae looked startled.
"In every undertaking." re-
peated Mrs. Holton, except
home-making, men excel wom-
en-. And that is the career most
modern girls think least about"
Mrs. Holton asked her
alumnae why they thought
Reno flourished so furiously.
1t was because women were for
getting about I1omemaking.
II want every girl who goes
through my school to realize
that q happy marriage is the
greatest success she can achieve.
And marriage means home"
Then Mrs. Holton reminded
her former students that Pro
fessor Breasted had said in his
History of Civilization" that
the first words recorded thous-
ands of years ago were on the
subject of home.
The audience applauded en-
Enthusiastically. And then was a
little serious and interpretive.
Many of its members we're
young married women. All Of

Remarkable Personality
MRS. HoLTON is one of the
AVA most remarkable person
alities in Washington. She
established a Grade A school
here many years ago and has
had a thrilling influence on the
lives of hundreds of girls. At
II she is still vivid, clear
thinking, straight-backed per-
son, who asks no quarter and
makes no compromises with life.

JobIess Dutch
Holland to Increase
Public Aid

THE HAGUE. the Netherlands,
May 12.-The Netherlands govern
ment has decided upon further
measures to guard against unem-
ployment. Following upon the de-
ciSion to stem the flood of German
refugees, the cabinet will increase
the number of persons employed
on public works projects from
$4,000 to $4,000.
To that end the ministry of
public works has circularized to
BurgomaSters throughout thu
country requests for reports on
opportunities for useful employ.
ment in their municipalities. The
figures for March showed 400 900
unemployed out Of a total popula,
ton Of 100000.

men of Central Europe as much
as anything else.
The inside on the situation Is
this:
A small group in England, COM
posed in part Of Chamberlain
friends, is trying to push Great
Britain into an understanding
with Germany which would
virtually complete a four-power
pact.
1t is we'll recognized among
the knowing that Hitler wants
such an agreement and Is will
ing to sign a provision guaran-
teeing the safety and integrity
of Britain, France, Belgium, and
the Netherlands. He would
preserve the status quo in West
ern Europe, so he can move
along bloodleSSly and unre-
strained with his conquest OF
Central Europe,

London Interested

HITLER and Mussolini have
II been dangling this bait be-
fore the armament-ridden Brit
ish diplomats and have sue
ceeded in gaining more than a
nibble in London. A good many
of Chamberlain's associates be
lieve that If Germany is allowed
to have her own way, Hitler WILL
be satisfied, Britain'S armament
burden may be relaxed a nttle'
peace will be restored.
Chamberlain has not yet COM
mitted himself, but the wise bet
ting here is 10 to ! he will not
fall for it.
The dangers in such a bar
gain are obvious. Hitler'S price
constitutes surrender by the de
mocracies. In effect, it would
mean an end to resistance against
his aggression. It would assure
peace now, but what 1t would
mean a few years from now
when Hitler has restored the
German empire to predominant
strength, might be something
else again. In anticipation OF
that day, England could hardly
relax her rearmament program.
Something like this was orig
inally tried in 1888 and 1884 and
was blocked by zechoslovakia,
Rumania and Yugoslavia. It
was tried again later and
blocked by Poland.

BULL|TT BOOM
in PENNA. THAT
FAILED IS Barred
Was Suggested For
Governor Choice
By EARL GOODWIN

Bill" Bullitt, U. S. ambassa.
dor to France, has returned to
Paris but for a few moments at
the White House it looked as if
he might be the fair-haired boy
to run for governor of Pennsyl-
vania with the Administration
backing. Had this come about,
there might not today be the
Democratic muddle in PennSyl-
vania which the President says
could be described only by the
author of THE Inferno"
A few weeks ago, just before
the Democrats and Republicans
both split into bitter factions,
filled with rancor and internecine
strife, Senator Guffey of Pennsyl-
vania, Governor Earle, David
Lawrence, State central commit
tee chairman: David Stern, Phila-
delphia publisher and strong New
Dealer, spent an hour with the
President, trying to find a Demo
crat behind whom all factions
could unite.
KENNEDY NOT WANTED
The regular Democrats did not
want Lieutenant Governor John
Kennedy to become candidate
either for governor or Senator.
There was too much John Lewis
influence behind Kennedy, who
is a national officer Of the
United Mine Workers. John Lewis
had threatened to support Re-
publican Pinchot if Kennedy did
not get the top slot on the ticket
he was tired of having his field
marshals given second-rate jobs.
There were more strong rows
and arguments. Governor Earle,
still suffering from the illusion
that he will be the next Demo
cratic nominee for the Presidency,
viewed the Pennsylvania fight
from that angle. There is reason
to believe that David Lawrence
wanted to shove Senator Guffey
out of the way for the time being
at least. At any rate, there was
nothing but friction in the Presi-
dents office until Dave" Stern
scrubbed the name of Bullitt on a
piece of paper and handed it
across the desk to the President.
49,. LIKED THE IDEA
One of the men present says the
President studied the name
minute and said something like:
you've got something there"
And he read the name. In
stantly hostilities ceased. The
President gave the impression,
at least, that he might be willing
to sacrifice Ambassador Bullitt
for Governor Bullitt, in State
where the name Bullitt means al
most as much as Lee in Virginia.
Bill" Bullitt was high in the
Wilson administration and his
grandfather wrote the city charter
for Philadelphia. There is a
statue of Grandpa Bullitt stand
mig around somewhere in the City
of Brotherly Love.

approached. His ship was about
to sail, so they had it held for
two or three hours.
KNOCKED OUT EARLY
Meantime also the Harrisburg
gang got busy. Someone tele-
phoned to Matt McCloskey, the
Philadelphia contractor and Demo
cratic boss, who happened to be
in Harrisburg at the time. The
McCloskey outfit did not want
Bullitt. Neither did Governor
Earle.
So before Bullitt could be in
duced to enter the race, as Demo
cratic nominee for governor with
White House backing, the poll
ticians who make or break candi-
dates licked him.
So the ship sailed with Bullitt
on it.

We're Not Convinced

A perusal of the Griffenhagen report in which it is recommended that startling changes be made in Waterbury's Fire De- partment doesn't convince us of the same thing. We find the same feelings being arsused as were over the proposed changes in the School Department While reor- ganization of the department might be affected without hurting it's efficiency or depriving the city of valuable service, still doing away with three firehouSeS and eliminating members of the department don't exactly seem like the right kind of savings.
 We were always under the impression that the department was undermanned. Certainly if the hours that the firemen have been obliged to work is any criterion their life hasn't been bed of roses, even if they weren't responding to alarms every minute while on duty. Streamlining the Fire or Police Department, not to men, tion the teaching department, is not move in the right direction. Waterbury has always been proud of the services of it's civic employees and has always re- ceived full measure for what it paid out. Why change now?
 Closing of firehouSeS would certainly bring immediate protests from those Sec- tions of the city in which they are located. In city as big as Waterbury, spread out over great territory, much of it hilly, there is need for good spacing of engine houses, even in this day of fast-moving automobiles. Griffenhagen is, of course, motivated only by the thought of bring ing about economies in the city govern ment in recommending such changes. We are concerned not only with the economies, but with the safety of the gen. eral public.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-11-14
Time Will Tell

One of the first things that Governor elect Raymond E. Baldwin did was to an- nounce that when he assumed office ln January he would devote his efforts to good government; he would not endeavor to build up political machine to assure himself of reelection in 1940. We don't know if MT. Baldwin was serving notice on the horde of Republican off1ce-seekers who are bound to descend on the capitol next wear or if he was merely making this statement to strengthen his own convic- tion to steer clear of the pitfalls that lie ahead
 If he is sincere in his intention not to build up political organization while in office, he had better line up all the Repub- lican leaders around the state, so that they'll keep hands off when it come time to make the numerous appointments that are due in 1889. There are many lmpor- tant ones, a dozen ommiSSionershipS among them; at least three superior court iudgeships; and other court appoint ments, common pleas and minor. Per haps the latter will be taken out of his hands, inasmuch as the minor court prob lem is due to be debated before the Legis- lature again.
 We don't for one minute believe that MT. Baldwin will continue in office the many Democratic commissioners who have come to the fore in the last eight years through the efforts of Gov. Cross He may even decide to relieve some of the Republican commissioners whom Gov. Cross has retained or appointed, notably Edward F. Hall, finance commissioner, and Frederic c. Walcott, public vel fare commissioner But, the mere fact that Socialists are taking some credit for electing MT. Baldwin indicates that this party may also have hankering to be considered or be consulted about the ap- pointments. And don't lose sight of the fact that state senate, in which are IT Democrats, IS Republicans and 2 Social ists, acts on most of the guoernatorial appointments to commissionershipS.

Women Workers Needed

The unemployment census, directed by John D. Biggers year ago, disclosed that women formed larger part of those employed than they did in 193O It was immediately reasoned by many people that women were crowding men out of jobs, and that if many of them withdrew from gainful employment there would be more work available for idle men.
 The National Industrial Conference Board, as a result of a study made by its Economic Research Division, says that conclusion is false. Actually, it found, "the percentage of male workers in the total population has been approximately the same since 1870. The increase in the number of women workers has, therefore, not been at the cost of men. It has been an increase in the total labor force" ]" Furthermore: "In the years up to 1880 it would have been impossible to main tain the level of industrial production without female employees" Women workers really helped to sustain employ ment for men,
 It is probably true that if more unem- ployed men returned to paying employ ment there would be fewer women either working or seeking work. But speaking in general, this would not be because the two groups compete for the same jobs.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-11-14

The method of borrowing in anticipa- ton of taxes is very helpful at all times to cities and towns, but we still think that when a community can get back to the point where it no longer needs to do this and can foot all it's bills out of current in- come, it is to be congratulated. Some time Connecticut may put through legislation outlawing this type of borrowing as has be long uphill pull before it can be ac- complished. There would have to be one last tremendous loan to put through the change and smart financing to prevent a city falling into debt again.
