department has been unable to do little or nothing with construction of sidewalks along highways. For more than @ decade now this has been moot question. Many public officials have argued the cause of more pedestrian protection, but it wasn't until the last legislative session that any thing was really accomplished.
 State aid funds were at that time made available for construction of sidewalks at hazardous points along highways. Commissioner Cox has urged that the present Legislature make such changes as will permit of operation of this law and acquisition of the necessary rights of way where demanded. Right now the law does not directly stipulate that such rights of way may be used when they are available. It should and 1t should fur ther state that rights of way may be furnished by the town within the high way area.
 Having progressed so far in this drive to procure protection for pedestrians, we shouldn't allow the law to remain inop- erative any longer.

A Mean. a Roof, Democracy

Democracy" cried the young man earnestly, is three square meals day and roof over your head" The youth forum before which he was speaking burst into an approving roar
 The definition is scarcely accurate, yet 1t i'll behooves any of the more fortunate elders of this youth, with their last skipped meal twenty years ir the back ground, to laugh off the words. They are too important, and the applause which greeted them is too important, for off-laughing.
 No. Democracy is not three square meals a day and roof over your head. Slaves have been we'll fed and housed with reasonable comfort, but whatever you might say about their condition, it was not democracy. But the fact that this pat definition was not strictly accurate did not mean that the young man had nothing to say. He had plenty to say, and people had better listen.
 Three squares and democracy are not the same thing. But the question that demands an answer is this: can democ- racy exist for long when perhaps third of the people do not have the three squares and the roof? Forty feet of the foundation at one corner of the First Ma tional Bank building are not the building, but if you removed those forty feet of foundation, the building would no longer be safe.
 Economic security, in other words, is not the same thing as democracy, but a democracy which fails consistently to offer conditions in which the vast major ity of people have high degree of eco- homie security is allowing an important corner of it's foundations to crumble.
 The democratic way of life is vast, monumental building, the fairest and finest man has yet built. Its foundations and rooms are many - equal political rights, toleration, restricted govern mental power, equality of opportunity, no special privileges, freedom of discussion and thought, no per manent class lines, the general un- derlying feeling deep in every man that he wishes nothing that is not avail able to other men under the same cir cumstances. It is greater than merely "three squares a day and roof" But without those simple elementals, it can be ashes in the mouth. That is not be- cause men no longer prize their freedom above mere comfort, but simply because they realize that in our United States, there is no sane reason why they should not have both.
 Did you dine well last evening, and the evening before that, and every eve ming for many years before that? Then do not laugh away this young mans defi- nition of democracy. It is not a very good definition, but it is full of meaning to America.

The Lord Is Risen

The drums of hate pound steadily over the battlefields of Europe today. In Amer ica the wheels of industry pound furiously, turning out the weapons of war. We dwell in the midst of feverish activity. And yet tomorrow marks the day of Ressurrection. On that morr more than 1900 years ago Savior fulfilled what was said of him by the prophets. He rose from the dead. He did this for mankind. What does mankind do to him today - cruelty or glorify him?
 We'll, might we favored cnes of the Lord here in the United States pay all our homage and respect to the God that is God of the living and not the dead. Well might we repent the lives of ease, tndolence, and refusal to accept the responsibilities that are placed upon us. At this sublime season of the church year what a wonderful thing it is to see men, women, and children, old and young humbling themselves that they may be made like unto God - the same God who fashioned them from the clay of this earth and breathed a living spirit into this rough form.
 Easter time Is one for rejoicing because the Church rejoices. It is happy period and we would have it thus for everyone here in Waterbury as elsewhere. But when we Americans rejoice at the boun- ties that are ours now by heritage, we should not close our hearts to the fact that fellowmen elsewhere are less fortu- nate. Prayer is the last recourse of the sinner, the first of the good man. At no time should we lift our>voices in earnest prayer than on the eve of a glorious Easter in a land that is free and God loving.

The Fight Is Over

The 1941 session of the Legislature will have a number of distinguishing marks, no doubt, but certainly one that can be long remembered is its passage of the nee. esSary legislation to assure completion or the state park at Sherwood Island in the Town of Westport. Sufficient funds are now set up for the purchase of the re- maining shorefront needed to complete the park and to make possible its proper development as a SeaShore recreatlonal area. In addition there will be highway facilities that can accommodate the thousands expected to flock to the resort this summer.
 Connecticut will boast three very fine seashore parks when the one in Fairfield County is completed. Certainly we have not neglected our taxpayers in this re- spect. Many people think that recrea- tion has been overdone and that the money spent in the development of such areas could have been put into other projects. But we don't know any one that would have benefited the masses more than such areas as these. In the case of Sherwood Island there is lot of pride mixed in with the accomplish ment of this venture.
 It was in 1914 that the state ventured into the field of park areas. And the first purchases for such purposes were on Sherwood Island where some visionary saw at future date men, women, and children enjoying themselves on publicly owned and maintained sands, swimming in the refreshing waters of the Sound where the state was their sole supervisor. It has been long time in coming true this dream, but now that it is virtually accomplished let us do some praising of the original proponents of the Sherwood Island State Park.

ZAPP IN HAVANA
 Dies Committee investigators have uncovered the interesting fact that pr. Manfred zapp, head of the Nazi Trans-Ocean News Service, was socially active dur ing the Pan-American Conference in Havana last year.
 It was at this barley that the principle of Western Hemisphere defense was established. zapp, recently indicted with his assist ant on charges of being unregis- tered Nazi agents, wrote q letter on August 10, l940, after he re- turned from Cuba. As translated by the Dies Committee, 1t follows in part:--
 q had a room in q Havana hotel directly next to the apart- ment of Secretary of State Hull. The atmosphere in Havana tow ards Germans was in the begin- ing excep Ionally cool and the treatment we received rather dis- agreeable, but when the confer- ence looked like little success for the Americans, they (apparently the Cubans) believed they would no longer have to fear the Ger mans, and from the human stand- point we were treated almost civ- lily.
 T was particularly fortunate because, due to my good personal contacts, I was very well received in Cuba. The owner of the most important Cuban newspaper im- mediately invited me for dinner with some friends at e country estate. He called for me in @ bull let-proof car and YVES accompanied by his bodyguard. His house was surrounded by @ high wall.
 Immediately we approached, the door opened and we drove through and the door immedi-
 ately closed again. Three huge
 bloodhounds were then locked In Q kennel where they re-
 mained until we left the house.
 T was invited again another time to the same mans home,

c. When should fruit trees be grafted2
 A. Usually In winter or spring. with dormant scions. 1r general, stone fruits are budded oftener than they are grafted. Apple and pear trees are grafted more frequently in the Central States and budded in other sections, although both meth ods are widely employed and may be regarded as of equal utility in nurs- cry work.
 e. How is neon gas manufactur- edP
 A. It is 6 chemical element, not Q manufactured product, and Is found in the atmosphere in the proportion of one part of neon to 680o0 parts of air. It Is obtained as an industrial product by the lique- faction of air.

A WAR ALWAYS HAS TO BE PAID FOR - WE'LL PAY
 FOR THIS ONE
April 10, 194l.

April 10, 194l. Editor, Waterbury Democrat:
 An editorial in 'The Saturday Evening Post" of March 18th pre- sents in a vivid way the methods by which the costs of war must be met. Tn our daily trading we rely so implicitly on the United States dol lar sign ($) that we never stop to think 1t is but a symbol of change able values, dependent upon the maintenance of a balance between what we consume and what we pro- duce. The Post suggests, therefore, that in thinking of settling the costs of war we discard the dollar sign and think in terms of the things the war must be fought with all of the things we produce.
 There are but three ways to meet the costs of defense: namely, by taxation b- to pay the costs as we go; by borrowing to defer the pay ment for a time at the expense of adding interest to 1t; and by rapidly advancing prices, sometimes called imitation, a form of repudiation of debts, which results in shifting the burden to all consumers in the pro- portion that they must buy rather than in proportion to their ability to pay.
 Whatever expedient we adopt first, the cost must finally be met by some form of taking our prop erty or earnings. Nothing is cer- tain but death and taxes" Whatever measure of ability to pay" we adopt in taxation, let us insist that 1t must conform to the constitutional re- uuirement of being uniform.
 The greater the part of the cost of defense 1t is possible to pay by uniform taxation. without borrowing or deferring payments, the lighter will be the final burden. and the sooner we will recover from It's weight.

The National Resources Planning Board has some very fine plans for New England. In fact, they might be even termed grandi- ose for contemplated is such project as coastal freeway which would extend all the way from New York to Bar Harbor, Maine. Whether or not this would util- ize existing or contemplated parkway systems, including Connecticut's, we don't know, but if something entirely diff ferent then this state would be more than criss-crossed by important new roads. Another idea is continuous rural high land parkway up through western New England. It would pass through Fair field and Litchfield counties, using the Litchfield Hills and Berkshires, Green Mountains, and White Mountains as It's foundations. That's an idea that is tre- mendous in its import and certainly more so in its accomplishment We could not oppose it, but merely wonder how, when, and if it could actually be accomplished in this lifetime.

The dinner which edged out Georgla's $27,000 receipts with Texas, with around $40,000 -. one reason the Italian fleet has been more exposed to the British recently is the fear of mutiny. Mussolini, an old rebel himself, recalls what the Russian fleet did to the Czar and how the first German revolt in the World War occurred in naval forces stationed at Will helmshaven and Bremerhaven. So he wanted to keep the fleet busy.
