Dry Cold Most Fell,
Is Claim Of Experfs

Modern home air conditioning is
gradually teaching us that one of
our most widely cherished beliefs is
complete fallacy-the one that
says "you feel damp cold so much
more than you do dry cold.'" Ac-
tually, the National Warm Air-Heat-
ing and Air-Conditioning Associa-
ton points out, the reverse is true.
Relatively high humidity causes low
temperatures to be less uncomfort-
able; and when people have learned
this, says Scientific American, they
can begin really to enjoy the in
creased comfort, and even more the
improved health, which can be pro-
vided by the simple type Of air con-
ditioning which is becoming the rule
in modern American homes.

Agenda of Conference.
On the agenda of the conference:
l. The general problem presented
by the transition of American life
from an agrarian economy to an
industrial economy and the failure
Of the tax structure to keep pace.
2. Failure of tax assessment to
keep pace with modern knowledge
OF real estate appraising procedure
and failure of assessed valuations
to follow economic trends.
8. Retarding effect on economic
recovery of pyramiding levies
against individual properties by
overlapping taxing authorities.
4. Multiplication of taxes against
farm properties, with its threat to
the source of the basic elements of
life.
5. 1nadequacy of real estate as
sole financial support of educational
services and alternative methods of
providing necessary support for
these services.
6. Methods of taxing property
ownership which could aid an eouit-
able readjustment. Included here
are overall limitations on real estate
tax levies and it's results in the nine
limited States, the income approach
in determining taxable value and
the results achieved in actual ap-
plication of this principle, the plan
now under discussion in Michigan
and to be voted upon this fall for
taxing property production instead
OF property value. In other words,

The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-10-07
We'll Merited

The nominations on last Saturday of Congressman J. Joseph Smith and Pro- bate Judge Patrick Healey should af- ford the Democratic party of Waterbury extreme satisfaction For that matter the entire electorate of this city, as well as the districts these esteemed public officials represent, should be gratified to find that such confidence has been placed in them. Both Rep. Smith and Judge Healey have been invaluable as public servants, de- voted to the trust placed in them and loyal to the convictions that earned them support at the polls.
 For the election of Congressman Smith too much can't be said He has served the Fifth District with conspicuous energy and zeal. His has never been passive membership in the House of Representa- tiveS From the very outset he diStin- guiShed himself by willingness to start at the bottom and work his way up. AS a result his home town of Waterbury now has the right to feel very proud of an outstanding member of the most import ant and high-ranking House Military Af fairs Committee. To cut short his public career at this juncture would be highly unfortunate. We hope that his constitu ents will keep this in mind.
 The same might be said, too, of Judge Healey. Near the end of his first term as Judge of Probate he has contributed to this very important office the fine quail ties that are demanded of the incumbent. He has also continued the tradition of Democratic regime without the intrusion of partisanship in his conduct of office that has come to be expected in the Sev- eral probate districts of the state. There can be no doubt that what his political stature has waxed with each passing month and that he will be highly regard ed by the voters in November. That is as many of us would have it.

Dickenson Likes Birch Rod

News accounts of the attacks on MT. Willkie and his entourage indicate that much, but not all, was the work of school boys Michigan'S stern moraliSt, Cover nor DickenSon, advocates liberal appll- cation of the birch switch and he places the responsibility on lax discipline in homes and schools So far as the children are concerned, we think the governor is right. Lack of discipline is a real prob- lem. It is time to push the pendulum back toward the view that discipline of children cannot be scrapped without danger to the children themselves and to the country.
 We believe that excesses in discipline are more likely to be committed by adults who grew up without discipline than by those who were taught decent code of obedience and respect. The adults who indulged in rowdyism should be handled very, very firmly. It is vain to expect people low enough to disgrace themselves to refrain from disgracing their com munities. Since we cannot sanction 1n- dividual reprisal, though the provocatlon be strong, it is the duty of the police to make a real effort to have such unneceS- sary. When presidential nominee, seek ing fair opportunity to present his cause and especially when accompanied by his wife is subjected to the insult and the physical danger of a barrage of veg etables, the situation is one for the police to cope with. And cope with it we trust they will.
 Our sympathetic understanding goes out to the self-respecting communities which suffered the unenviatle publicity from the acts of few unspanked boys and moronic adults. We realize that no community is free from the presence of these pests or from the dread possibility of being disgraced by them.

Which Church Does Hitler Attend

''If the parents of Adolf Hitler had taken their child to Sunday School or school of religion, and if in later years he had formed the habit of entering at least once each week into some church or syna- gogue to kneel reverently for quiet medi- tation, self-eXamination, life-adjustment and worship, would the world castrophe of today have been averted?" With that thought-provoking question, the Golden Rule Foundation announces an observ- ance of Loyalty Days on October and G. Purpose is to stimulate church attend ance in mobilization of moral and spiritual forces
 All of us in America are being called on to make sacrifices in the mobilization of arms and men in an effort to keep war away from our shores. Some are giving a year out of their lives; all of us are giving money. It doesn't seem too much to ask that each of us also give a little time and influence to the support of tenets which are stronger than the strength of arms It is such small sacrifice, such great goal.

Too much can't be said or written about the willingness of the school authorities and teachers of Waterbury to cooperate with other public officials m the success full registration of all the eligible Water bury boys between the ages of 21 and 36 on October 16. While Waterbury is prob ably no different from hundreds of other American communities in this respect and credit must go everywhere we feel that it remains for the respective towns and cities to bestow the praise where merited. It is no easy matter to provide adequate facilities for a proper registration of those eligible for conscription nor to man these facilities. Had the teaching profession shown an unwillingness to join so whole heartedly we don't know how efficiently the process of enrolling the boys of Wa terbury would have proceeded. So once again public acknowledgement of the invaluable service being performed for city and nation.

Education vs. Propaganda

It is good to see federal officials and responsible educators like U. s. Commis- sioner of Education John w. StudebakeI intensely alive to the problem of infiltra- tion of foreign points of view into the United States Commissioner StudebakeH is no advocate of repression and passive de fense. He would take the ball away from foreign propagandists and carry it to- ward the American goal. He has urged these practical measures on school off cials of the 48 states
 l. Once and for all eliminate illiteracy.
 2. Vigorously educate the foreign born and foreign language groups in the history and principles of Amer ican democracy.
 3. Enable tOday'S adults to catch up with modern problems and under stand them through practical and systematic study and discussion. "Civic illiteracy is on open invitation to fifth column"
 America wants no robot yelpers for "strong men" or "foolproof systems" It wants intelligent, well-informed, enlight- ened citizens who know the precious worth of freedom Given these, it can stand against the world.
