One tenet Of the Republican party Of
old to which 1t chung very steadfastly and
which, by the way, was remarkably good
one for party that was so boss-ridden
that 1t crumpled into tiny bits when the
mastery Of the commander was exposed
to sunlight, was that Of allowing the cities
and towns of Connecticut to rule them
selves. Home-rule 1t has been called and
will for many years to come. It has
always been a cherished possession Of
our Connecticut communities. Many of
them even made fetish Of 1t, so thor
oughly did they 60 n for home-rule and
resent the efforts of the state, however
slight, to encroach upon 1t.
Consequently the spectacle OF the Re-
publican candidate for governor pro-
posing that home-rule be seriously
encroached upon Is interesting to behold.
We wonder how the old guard Of the party
regards Raymond E, Baldwin's words
when he recommends that the state step
In and conduct audits of city and town
books. Incidentally Mr.. Baldwin took an
inside" crack at many towns and cities
for unfortunate shortages in their books
in recent years. The reason for such a
proposal was that Mr.. Baldwin was
endeavoring to show that Governor VIII

what transpires in the 169 towns of Con-
necticut.
If governor Mr.. Baldwin says he would
make 1t his business to find out what
they're doing in every town in this state.
That might be a gubernatorial preroga-
tive, but we're inclined to think that
many town official, veteran or untried,
might resent the poking and prying that
the governor would have to do to bring
to light any facts which he couldn't
readily ascertain by consulting his several
department heads whose domains cover
the towns and result in pertinent facts
and figures on operation Of town govern
ment.
There have been efforts made in the
mast to have the state concern itself more
intimately with the doings of the town
government. AS matter Of fact this
control has been extended and strength
ened in many ways, but mainly through
subsidization, II it may be called that, In
the form Of grants. We wouldn't be sur
prised, though, that If Mr.. Baldwin were
4 member Of the Legislature again he
would oppose strenuously, as he may have
Ii The past. efforts 70 encroach upon home
rule, a very definite need in this present
age.

The 1899 General Assembly Is going
to spend some time in settling damage
claims, resulting from the recent hurri-
cane and tidal wave. Right now the
office of the Attorney General Is flooded
with demands from property owners for
reimbursement. However, this depart
ment has advised against payment of
such demands, which naturally means
that many will take their grievances to
the Legislature. There are always host
Of claims for the particular legislative
committee concerned with this problem
to handle. Their tasks will be increased
manifold by virtue of cars smashed or
badly damaged by falling trees, holes in
pavements, etc. There may have to be
some general stand taken by the legisla-
tors, either for or against paying such
claims as these.

Selected Poem
OLD BARNS

marion Doyle in the New York Tines
7 like the smell Of an old barn:
The milk-sweet breath Of cows,
The pungency Of hay, the scent Of horses
In corners sunbeams spin the hay TO yarns
OF tabled gold; new kittens browse;
The ever-present Plymouth Rock discourses
On subjects interesting to hen
Her lazy chatter rousing In the mind
Childhoods enchantment with the new-filled NOW,
That In Q flash changed from robbers den
To haunted house, to patriots fort behind
Whose bristling walls we shouted threat and vow;
Or as we climbed the adder, 1t became
pirate ship that sailed imperiled seas
Through mountainous waves around the Southern
Horn,
Ringing with salty echoes Of our game.
Fast disappearing times discourtesies
Have left the few remaining lean and worn
On isolated hilsides: sway-backed gray
They speak In mournful accents to the wind
And these are the words they seem TO say
Their ancient voices high and thinned-
Long long ago and far away

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y. Aug. 18-
Delegates to the second World Youth
Congress today found their path to
an agreement on an international
peace program impeded by the fric-
ton of divergent national, racial and
religious ideals.
Almost every one of the Sc dele
cations had different proposal, and
the variations showed the representa-
tives in many cases were strongly in
fiuenced by what they felt were the
economic and political needs of their
own countries.
Some delegations, like that from the
United States, were prepared to sub
NIT two programs. Leaders OF the
congress hoped that through confer
ence and discussion the 1000 dele
gates and observers would agree on
a peace policy to which the youth OF
all nations could subscribe.
Joseph P. Lash of the United States
group suggested that basis on which
all American youth groups could agree
was Secretary of State Cordell Hull's
statement-"No nation can hope to
escape unaffected by what happens
