And where lie the sources of these
liberties? Whenever we speak of the
origins OF our American nation we
should go back not one hundred and
fifty years to the adoption Of orr
Constitution but three hundred vearc
to the founding Of the colonies And
there we come across , book. If ever

Closing the Woodlands

Governor Raymond E. Baldwin acted wisely in closing Connecticut forestlands. This man may seem to be hardship on many, particularly fishermen who must forego their seasonal pleasure, but we know that the current loss of use of streams will be made up later on. And the dangers of forest fire are so great right now that all sportsmen should be glad to cooperate in every way possible. Although trees are rapidly leafing out and a carpet of green is spreading over field and into forest, everything is as dry as finder. Chances can't be taken.
 We recall that several years ago when the fishing season was cut short by clos ing the Connecticut forests that an ex- tension was granted to the open season to compensate anglers for loss of many fine days in the open. Undoubtedly this will happen again if the ban on the woodlands remains in effect very long. In the mean time we must cooperate in every way to prevent fires. Kindling of any sort of fire right now in the open is dangerous. Under the law the punishment is severe.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-05-20
Two Contacts Gone

Connecticut is rapidly losing its con- tact with the Justice Department at Washington. First it was Homer s. Cum mings who resigned as Attorney General to resume his private law practice. Now it is the energetic Brian McMahon who takes leave of Washington, also to resume a law practice interrupted when he accepted the post of Assistant Attorney General. We don't blame President Roosevelt for expressing keen regret at MT. McMahons retirement.
 In the brief time that he spent in gov ernment prosecution he made name for himself as brilliant lawyer and tireless worker. Such fine service as he rendered the federal government can never be properly measured. Connecticut can take extreme pride in the work that he performed for Uncle Sam and also join in the many expressions of regret over his return to private life, although such a move can well be understood.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-05-20

only Cordell Hull and the inner diplomatic circle knows. With billions being spent for relief, rearmament and agriculture, a few extra millions might be spent on the branch of the government charged with keeping the nation out of war.
 Instead the State Department is receiving only $17,000, 100000 com- pared with $553,000,000 for the Army and $616,OO00OO for the Navy. And of that $17, 100000, the State Department raises $4,000,- 900 itself in consular and pass port fees.
 In fact, while every other government department has been reaching its hand into the Treasury, the Stae Department actually is getting $2,000,0 ,000 less than it did in Hoover's day, when its 1882 budget was $19,OOO,000.
 Only reason the State Depart ment is not getting more is be- cause it is not asking for it. Cor dell Hull, as former member of both the House and the Sen- ate, could write his own appro- priation ticket. Some of the iso- lationist senators have even told State Department officials that their present budget was equiva- lent to penny-pinching at thee K pense of national safety, and that they could have any reasonable increase.
 Yet the State Department does nothing. Its budget this year is $1,000,000 less than last.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-05-20

Diversion of highway funds is appar- ently puzzling legislators at Hartford. There should be no puzzle about the subject. Diversion of such funds is not to the average citizens liking. If he has to pay taxes on his operation of an auto- mobile along city streets and state high ways he wants the money he pays in used to build these thoroughfares and to keep them in shape. He also doesn't mind if some of the funds, so raised, are used to pay the expense of patrolling such road ways, provided, of course, this patrolling doesn't result in motor-traps and the like. In short the motorist doesn't want to be taken for a sucker. Automobile taxes look like rich source of income to many lawmakers. They must be restrained from exploiting this form of state income. It can be overdone.
