Bad Democracy Will Drive
Out Good Democracy in Any Country

good money" BY bad money the
Queens merchant not only meant
actual counterfeit money but also
inflated money and every other form
of currency that was not somehow
or other backed up by absolutely
sound assets.
Sir Thomas therefore never CoaS-
ed in his attempts to convince his
royal mistress that only everlasting
activity on her part to protect the
good money" for her kingdom
would prevent the bad money
from driving the good money COM
plctely out of circulation.
We have since then learned that
Gresham's Law is rot merely re-
stricted to money but holds good
for all OTHER commodities. both of
q material and spiritual nature.
Bad theater will invariably drive
ont good theatcr. Bad music will
have tendency to drive out good
music Cheap literature, unless
carefully watched, will completely
destroy good literature.
Ddu Will vi lHt oul -p'''
manners, and finally, bad democra-
cy will always drive out good de-
mocracy unless all those who believe
in good democracy will band to-
gether into a strong group and will
watch thereupon, both day and
night, lest bad democracy sneak in
through some unguarded loopholc
and corrupt the genuine article. as
one rotten apple will affect a whole
barrel of good ones.
Ana I shall now rapidly run
through the history of democracy
since the days Of the famous Athen-
ian experiment, to show you how
the law of Thomas Gresham works
when applied to democracy.
[ mist once more warn you that 1t
IS not a very happy story. But right
now when democracy on all sides
i, being threatened by tyranny, We
had better face a few unpleasant
facts if we wish to save ourselves
NEXT: The Roman Republic falls
when the sturdiness of its common
people declines.

 Superintendent

Appointment of a superintendent of welfare will be acted upon by the board of public welfare at a meet ing tonight. Mayor Vincent A. Scully has declared that the selec- ton of a superintendent is a matter solely for the board and said he would not make any recommends ton.

 Political circles today reported that Henry c. Begnal, formerly of this city and now of Washington, D. O., has a good chance for the appointment if MT. Hayden is not chosen. Names of several "dark horses" were also being mentioned.
 The position was made vacant by the recent death of Miss Grace L. White, who had served as superin- tendent for IA months.
 Meetings of the board of health and the board of public works will also be held at the City Hall to- night,

British Move Rapidly
 On Nazi Coal Exports

layed by weather conditions.
 Four Italian ships had left Rotter- dam Saturday with coal. They put back on orders from their owners. Six Italian ships left Rotterdam early yesterday with one, in the lead reported to be a "test" ship. Soon after the ships left Italy made public its protest to Britain against the coal ban and the British block ade in general. Then the economic warfare ministry announced that March 1 had been the deadline for shipments. Today dispatch from Rotterdam reported the departure of four more Italian coal ships.
 May Be Liquidated
 There seemed @ tendency here, both :n British and Italian circles, to believe that the dispute would be liquidated amicably in the end. but its implicit seriousness was not discounted, and the conservative Daily Telegraph, close to the foreign office, said in an article by its dip- lomatic correspondent:
 ". The possibility that Signor Mussolini may feel called on to support his protest by demonstra- tions of military strength Is recog- nized in London"
 Britain long delayed application of its German export ban from Italy, hoping that trade agree ment might be reached for exchange of British coal and Italian heavy in- dustrial products. It was understood that the decision to enforce the ban as regards Italy was due partly, not only to the failure of trade ne- gotiations but to complaints by small neutral nations that Italy was being given preferential treatment.
 Italy Surprised
 Rome, Mar. 5-(UP)-Announce- ment in London that two Italian ships carrying coal from Germany had been seized by the British con- traband control surprised Italian official cirles today and aggravated delicate displomatic situation.
 Authoritative quarters said that the ships seized by the British had been loaded prior to arch l, when the British extended their contra band control to Italian imports of German coal by sea, but they had been unable to sail because of bad weather.
 It had been considered in Rome as tacitly understood that the ships seized by the British would not be subject to seizure because they had been loaded before March 1.
 Earlier Italy ordered a big scale coal rationing system pending out come of the situation.
 The ministry of corporations al- lotted the chemical, mechanical, textile and iron industries 30 per cent of the amount of coal they consumed last year; 70 per cent of the tanning and clothing indus tries; 60 per cent to the paper and food industries and 50 per cent to the building trade and lumber in- dustries.
 Special coupons were issued for coal orders, and severe fines were prescribed against any coal distrib- utors who issued more than the al- lotted quantities.

 The next witness called was George H. Kingsley, head of the George H. Kingsley O., He testified that he is without funds and that his home in New Jersey is mortgaged for $l7,4O0, that the taxes on 1t are ull- paid, and that he is married and has his wife and four children to support. He said since the trial started he has only earned $1 100 as an accountant and that he used this to support his family.
 John 0, Meaney testified that he is earning $40.50 a week but he needs this to support himself and family.
 Petitioners
 The men who filed motions seek ing to have the state bear the ex- pense of printing the evidence In addition to Atty. Charles s. O'Con- nor are Atty. Henry Minor and Philip Coppetto of this city and John Meany and George H. Kings ley of New York.
 The motions were based on alle- gations that the men, all convicted in the conspiracy case and who have appealed their cases to the Supreme Court of Errors, are not able to pay for the expense of the printing of the evidence in the case. They claimed that under the state statutes they are entitled to the right of appealing their cases to the states high court and that If they cannot pay the state should pay.
 The evidence in the conspiracy case is the most voluminous ever compiled in the history of the states superior court. It runs into millions of words. It is estimated that it will take at least fifteen weeks to print the evidence and that 1t will cost over $l0,O00.
 Ruling Anticipated
 As above set forth Judge 1nglis reserved decision on the motions heard before him this morning. His decision is being looked forward to with the greatest of interest. Law yers throughout the state are won- dering just what procedure will be followed should Judge Inglis grant the motions heard today. It is pre- sumed that In that event the state will bear the expense Of those whose motions are granted assum. ing It's prcportlonate share of the expense with the remaining de. gendants who have not appealed OT whose motions gre denied.
 It was predicted weeks ago that ell of the men Who have appealed to the Supreme Court would make motions seeking to have the state pay for the printing Of the evidence. It became apparent last week h0Ws svar that many would not present motions,

was also admitted, but his condition is not serious. They gave his name as Fred Attuzzo, of New Haven.
 Two other men were reported to have been treated by their own phy- sicians.
 The remainder of the meat which is believed to have poisoned the men was confiscated by police and turned over to Dr. Marvin M. Scar borough, medical examiner, for analysis. Coroner James J. Corri- gan was notified.
 Six Volunteers
 The office of the Mascolo Bottling Company here reported today that six of their men rushed to New Haven last night to volunteer their blood. Their blood was found not to correspond, however, and pro- fessional donor was pressed into service.
 Those who volunteered included Emil Mascolo, president of the company, Joseph Trumfo, James J, Kelley, Michael Lovenall, Armand De Santis and Joseph DelChioppo
