Get 1t Fixed Up

Probably a number of local motorists
have received the new warning cards that
state police and other motor law enforce
ment officers are handing out these days
along our highways. This plan was started
about the first week in February and it is
hoped that it will prove to be of some
assistance in the general drive to cut
down the wave of motor accidents that has
struck Connecticut since the beginning
of the year. Don't just consider this card
as warning and nothing more. If you
fail to follow up its instructions, you're
in for trouble.
Most of the cards are being given to
drivers of cars with defective lights,
although some policemen have handed
them out where they diScerned that a
car was being operated with bad brakes,
without windshield wiper or horn work
ing properly. These cards are made out
in triplicate = one to the offender, one
to the State Police headquarters, one to
the Motor Vehicles Department. The Of
tenders card must be returned within 48
hours, signed by the repairman who has
remedied the mechanical defect on the
car. Delinquents are paid a visit by
the state police.
Motor Vehicle Commissioner Michael
A. Conner recently estimated that per
cent of the cars on our highways have
some mechanical defect that hinders or
prevents safe driving If this percentage
can be erased through such means as are
being followed, then it will mean that the
inspections, soon to be launched, will be
all the more facilitated and the burden
placed on the motor car owner at the
time of the semi-annual test lessened.

Self-Perpetuating

A recent report of the CCC revealed
that there is sufficient work ahead of
this organization to keep some 100000
young men and their superiors busy until
1890. That is based on plans that we
make in the year 1939-40. What plans
might be made ten years hence to con-
tinue the CCC Indefinitely are hard to
predict, but are certainly possible. The
chances are, however, that the CCC will
not exist until 1890. It must, unfortu-
nately, become the toy of whatever polit-
ical organization controls the national
government.
Under the New Deal the CCC will fare
well, but who knows what fate lies In
store for the New Deal later on this year.
Even If the Democrats should succeed in
being returned to national office again
this fall, the sustaining hand Of Roose-
welt might not be there to keep the CCC
on an even keel. During the admins
tratiom Of our next President the CCC
viii surely know its fate, for its present
tenure Of existence comes to an end in,
1913. If it Is to continue, Congress must
rive it q new lease on life then.
There are many arguments to be adj
yanced for its continuation after 1943,
hut there seems little reason in adyanc-

Bridge Trouble

The 1941 session of the Legislature is
going to hear lot about big bridges and
highways. A lot OF money is going to be
asked for these projects and forces are
forming already to combat any deter
mined raid on the state treasury that may
throw it out of balance. Hartford and
New London are two communities that
will be right in the foreground in the
fight for the new bridges. Both seek
them and both have good arguments to
back up their claims for definite legis-
lative action on the start Of the struc-
lures.
Preliminary work on them has already
started. AS matter of fact New London
thought that the matter was pretty well
decided this winter, ever to where the
new bridge would be located. But right
after the first of the year the bridge COM
mission read over survey that had been
conducted for its benefit and found out
that the present structure between New
London and Groton was being used by
local traffic more than through or out-of-
town. The percentage of local traffic
passing across the bridge was better than
so per cent.
This has necessitated change in policy
for the bridge commission. The idea OF
providing an alternate bridge across the
Thames was to relieve congestion on the
other, everyone believing that heavy
flow OF through traffic making necessary
q new bridge that would serve this type.
But after the survey just completed the
bridge planners have changed their ideas
and the site for the new structure is still
open to all suggestions. It will go, we
hope, where it will do the most good for
the most motorists.

Two famous liners, the Normandie and
Queen Mary, will shortly brave the perils
of the Atlantic to make the short trip
from New York to Boston, where both
must 60 into dry dock for periodic over
hauling and cleaning of marine growths
from their hulls. Both boats, two of the
largest in Atlantic service, have been
anchored in the Hudson River now for
several months. It was decided after
their last crossing to keep them in this
country rather than have them run the
risk of being sunk by German submarines
or bombed by flyers. There will still be
some danger in the short trip to Boston,
but U. S. neutrality patrols are plough
ing the waves of the Atlantic and will lend
as much aid as possible. The reason
for sending them to Boston is that there
are only two dry-docks on this side of the
Atlantic large enough to accommodate
either one of them. One is at Boston;
the other at st. John, New Brunswick.
This latter trip is regarded as too haz-
ardouS right now.

The Justices reasoning sounds ex-

that other New York state commu-

good reasons. There are, for in

use white paint on their fire trucks
and, accordingly, white privately

Recent opinion from the national cap
ital seems to hold that the proposal to put
the government into the business Of max
ing loans to small businesses has poor
chance of being approved at the present
time.
Going by the available evidence, there
seems to be practically no good reason
why the proposal should have been made
in the first place. There have been num-
erous recent surveys of the character OF
the service today performed by private
banking on behalf of the small borrower.
They all indicate that this service is bet
ter than at any time in the past, and Is
steadily improving It is doubtful If ever
i'll our history banks sought so eagerly Tor
loans, in either large or small amounts.
Many banks have gone in for personal
loans. Others are financing the purchase
of automobiles on terms. Practically all
banks are vitality interested in serving the
small business, which may need lew
hundred or few thousand dollars for
expansion, or for some other legitimate
purpose. And interest rates, as everyone
knows, are unusually low.

s. b., Atlanta-British shipping
losses have been greater in this
war than In the first five months
of the World War. The British
have already lost approximately
half a million tons of merchant
shipping, compared to 241 900 tons,
or half as much, in. the first five
months Of the World War.
The two periods are not prop
, erly comparable, however, since
during the present war Germany
launched their unrestricted SUBJ
marine and mine-laying warfare at
once. In the World War, this was
not undertaken until the begin
ming Of 1917.
Thus a more accurate compare
son is between the first five
months of this war, with a loss
of a half million tons; and the
five months Of February to June,
1917, when the British lost nearly
two million tons.
