Louis D. Rrandeis

Many are the tributes being paid to Louis D. Brandeis today. The death of the former United States Supreme Court justice brought forth prompt and gen. uine display of sorrow from all parts of the nation. Nothing quite expresses ad- equately what the nation must owe to Louis Brandeis. If ever there was iurist whose place in our history is well estab- lished 1t was this same little quiet-Spoken, firm-convinced Louis Brandeis. All honor to him in death; may his memory live long.
 If the late Woodrow Wilson made one Judicial appointment that was of lasting stuff, 1t was his designation of the little heard-of MT. Brandeis as Supreme Court justice back in 1916. But once established on the court the force of the Brandeis opinion, be it dissenting (which it was often in those early years) or be 1t af- firming, was felt the nation round. He was liberal humanitarian. The Supreme Court was sorely in need of such Ameri- cans as he. His resignation and now his death are to be regretted, sincerely and universally.

always been. It takes the same length of time for a baby to come TOW as 1t did in the dawn of his- tory; and while the Bible indicates that the patriarchs attained an age which men do not attain today, that may have been due to 8 diff ferent method of reckoning time or some other factor of which we are now ignorant.
 The sun will still be shining gen. erations from now, people marry ing and being given in marriage, men still building, people still as- piring, others throwing up the sponge and admitting themselves defeated. There will still be uni versailles, dance halls, theaters, and churches. People will be getting angry over the same things they do today, men and women will still be falling in love and regarding the experience as fresh and unprece- dented.
 In the realm of the spirit, 1t is and always will be so. "As it was in the beginning, is now ard ever shall be, world without end" And in and through it all the good God will be working out His pur- poses.

The Clories That Were BrookIyn's

No more desolate spot could probably be found on the map of the good old U. S. A. than Brooklyn by the GoWanus. Heart-rending must have been the walls of the faithful Flatbushers gathered beside the bier of the Dodgers baseball club. The end was swift and sure out there at Ebbets Field yesterday after noon. No misplay entered into the cold type chronicle of hits, runs, errors, etc. It was Yankee brawn and cunning and the American Leaguers take up where they left off two years ago.
 No club entered World Series less fitted to beat the Yankees than these same Dodgers. Yet in their very inexperience of what World Series means lay what many baseball fans believed was their best chance of winning. But quick res- tune of the five games played will show that with all their ability and all their fighting courage the Dodgers were just a notch or two below the Yankee class Any two ways you look at it the National League pennant winners were moving in faster company than to which they were accustomed.
 Sure, they lost the fourth game of the Series on a fluke-the like of which was never seen before But somehow or other those flukes never seem to happen to the club that's on top. It's the underdog that runs into them Brooklyn went into the Series played-out ball club. That grind down through September with the Car dinals dogging their heels or moving just ahead of them took a lot out of the Brooklyn club. Could it have coasted into the 1941 Series as the Yankees did with their safe lead the outcome over the last few days might have been just a bit different.
 But to the Tanks give credit where credit is due. They played championship baseball, the kind that wins pennants and world championships.

about it for a moment: namely, if all work and no play makes Jack dull boy in ordinary times, all work and no play in times like these are likely to bring the man in the white coat knocking on the door Dr. McCracken, president of Vas sar College, put 1t with greater dignity when he told the National Recreation Congress that without the spirit of play the world will go mad.
 That is pretty obviously true, and it requires no experts to tell the average man that judiciouS mixture of work and play is the right way to live. There has to be 8 certain amount of Spontaneity about play, however, for it to have full value. When 10000 bowling baseball fans watch the classic clash of Tanks and Dodgers, the first thing to note is that they are having whale of good time. The second thing to note is that nobody told them they had to go to the game; mo- body was fining them if they didn't ap- pear, or checking up on whether they went or not. Nobody was telling them when to cheer, or what was cheerable. They were all at the park because that was where they wanted to be; hence they were relaxed, and for couple of hours the world was well forgotten. And that is as it should be.
 1I1dI IS LIlG kA1l1CL4Ce41 way " 4AdNC 40AA and to get the kind of relaxation that really does some good. In the dictator countries they recognize the need for relaxation, too, so there are camps and resorts, and games. But they can't pos sibly be any fun with that insignificant looking fellow with the mustache gazing down from every wall; after II hours at the factory it can't be very helpful to have some brawny Storm Trooper come along, tap you on the shoulder, and say Come on, now! It's time to have fun! Heil Hitler!"
 What is fun, anyway? Why, little time to do what you want to do without in- terference; to lose yourself in what you would be doing all the time if you could, whether it is yelling for homer, trolling for bass, or remounting stamp collec- ton. Give opportunity and the people will find their own fun.

Robert E. Platt

It was with considerable sadness that we read yesterday of the death of the genial and well-liked Bob" Platt, official of the Waterbury Savings Bank for some years past, and for all of this century gentleman of whom Waterbury had be- come exceedingly fond and proud. He was not a native Waterburian, but he was born not many miles from here and certainly this was his home town in every sense of the word.
 Many of us came to know him first as an educator-an excellent one to whom the duty of training young boys and girls for the responsibilities of adult life was much more than passing task. It was his life's work and when he forsook these fields for others he could, if he had been made of that sort of cloth, looked back on his years as a teacher and principal with boastful pride.
 His pursuits and diversions were many. In each and everyone of them he entered with that same freshness of opinion and verve that was characteristic of him all his life. That springy step of his, so fa- miliar to his intimateS, was typical of his way of tackling jobs entrusted to him. We had not heard of his recent illness, so that the announcement of his death came as a shock not easy to take. Waterbury loses a most wholesome and whole-hearted citizen in Robert E. Platt.

The Danbury Fair that is an annual event in the month of the turning leaf and the ripening pumpkin is one of the many New England institutions that at tracts visitors from near and far It is more or less glorified country, fair No doubt when it was first started over seventy years ago 1t was very much country" but with the years it has re- tained a great deal of the old with bit of streamlining so as to demonstrate the fact that the Danbury Fair is an up and coming event. There you can enjoy the pleasures of the midway, or if your taste runs that way, view out-sized squash. You can look at preserves and pickles by the shelf-ful, and you can see prize cattle and poultry. Likewise you can enjoy the harness races. If you think that fairs are not as popular as ever, just picture about thirty thousand crashing through the gates Sunday, one of the hot test October Sundays on record, a red, white and blue flag made of red corn, lima beans and pokeberries, the key note of the fair.

A Horses Tale

From Black Beauty on down, many a tale has been written about mans best friend, the horse. Or is it the dog?
 But the newest horses tale is soon told, and it's bright one, full of light if not of sweetness. In Colorado, riding academy and auto association representatives have agreed that horses ridden on the high ways at night must wear light reflectors on their tails.
 Paul Revere, if he were to make his famous ride today would have had to have three lights provided for him: "One if by land" and 1.-two if by sea-" and third on the bouncing, swaying last section Of his mount to pass given point, just in case the British mechanized stuff came up too fast behind

simply turned his frank over to the America First Committee. They mailed million copies, saving $10,000 worth of postage. Yet the law of 1906 is clear that it is unlawful to lend said frank or permit its use by any commit tee, organizatio or association"
 Again, at meeting addressed by Donald Shea of the National Gentle League, envelopes bearing the frank of Senator Wheeler were distributed in the audience and listeners were urged to ad- dress and mail them- postage free.
 And in Los Angeles last sum- mer a meeting was held in Dr. Richter's Health Cafeteria to or- ganize pickets against Wendell Willkie when he came to speak at the Hollywood Bowl. Those who attended the Richter meeting were given the franked envelopes of Congressman Day of Illinois con- taining his speech of June IS critical of the British. All the audience had to do was address the envelope and send it--postage tree--to anyone.
 Prize violatOr of the franking privilege, however, was the late Senator Lundeen, whose speeches were written by George Sylvester Viereck, q paid agent of Ger many, and who then turned over his Congressional frank to have the speeches mailed all over the country postage free.
 No wonder even placid Post master General Frank Walker. is getting stirred up as to whether he should do something about the franking privilege. For he has the power--and no one con question it--to refuse mall from any Con- gressman suspected of violating the law.
 So far the worried MT. Walker has not used 1t.
 MISSING FORKS
 The hospitality of the people in the Louisiana rnaneuver area was warm and generous, and fried chicken was dished out to the troops everywhere.
 The boys loved 1t and never failed to turn back an empty plate. But one thing mystified the Northerners. This was that their Southern hosts ate the chicken with their fingers.
 At a large open air dinner party given by Mrs. Mickey, popular hostess of Lake Charles, one young Northerner asked charming local girl about tho matter.
 There is no mystery about 1t" she replied with a mischievOus smile. During the War Between the States you damyalikeeS stole ali our silver"

Selected Poem
SUNRISE SEA

(Wibert Snow in the New York Ttmes) Here by the sea the yellow primrose still Looks toward the rising sun; wild morning glorieS Flaunt their pink bells above the outmost su Of graying driftwood; in cd yellow dories That never will be put out to sea again Fishermens wives have rounded many ped Of towering blue whose petals reach and strain To match the coors on the cove outspread. Yet all the gold the primrose dares to Haunt On red stalks leaved with green. and all the white And pink of morning-glory blooms that haunt The fringes of the cove, and all the bright Blue flowers in yellow dories at their best Fade in the sunrise tints of the tides full crest.

Every time you go shopping you find there has been slight rise in prices; sometimes on foodstuffs, sometimes on what you wear. And if you plunge into the luxury division of merchandise you add on the latest tax. All this may prove annoying to you, personally, but 1t is something not to be escaped. And you might be consoled by the fact that you can still buy what you like and as much of it as you like. Things might be very much worse We in this country have not yet begun, actually, to sacrifice, as they have in other countries.

e. How long is the Devils AisA way, in Mexico and Arizona?
 A. The road, which iS known ~ Mexico as "El Camino del Diabl0sS is a l20-mile desert trail from Sone oyta, Mexico, to San Luis, Arizona Crosses mark the places where weu~ derers died along its arid wastes Recently. a Mexican farm worker and six relatives and friends lcSt their lives when their truck was stalled on this highway.
 o. How much air space will gSve the best heat insulating values
 A. On account of the large e3s fleets of radiation and convection, the insulating value Of an ar space is not proportional to it's width (thickness) as would be the case with slab of uniform solid material. Furthermore, the inSulat- ing value varies considerably with both mean temperature and tenn perature difference, For spaces more than about three-fourths inch wide the insulating value is practically constant, independent of the width. Narrower spaces have less insulat- ing value, and below about one half inch the insulating value Is ap- proximately proportional to the width.
 @. How many metals known to- day, are mentioned in the Bihle9
 A. Seven: Gold, silver, copper (called brass), iron, steel, lead and tin.

 Thrice is he arm'd that hath his quarrel just;
 CAnd he but naked, though loch up in steel,
 Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted"

But now 1t develops that part of this money was spent to mail lit- erature for an organization which the Justice Department charges was financed by German agents. In other words, the unknowing and innocent taxpayer joined with MT. Hitler's boys in helping cer- tain isolationist CongreSsmen flood the country with propaganda.
 This was why such a hot game of hide-and-go-seek was played in the America First Committee and in the basement of Congress in an effort to dispose of mail bags crammed with fraIlked pro- paganda belonging to Represent ative Ham Fish. The bags had been whisked out of the Make Europe Pay War Debts Commit tee just before the Justice De- partnent raided 1t.
 Congressman Fish's franked en- velopes escaped the FBI raiders, but the mall bags of several other Congressman did not. Most of these Congressman had voted for an act requiring everyone who distributed propaganda for a for eign country to register with the

in Washington today without the help of these information specialists and in most cases, the government public relations men are former newspaper men who have a definite knowledge of what newspapers and trade papers want, and see that they get it.
 At the sme time, in the constantly increasing complexity Of govern ment, with new bureaus springing up SO fast that they crowd each other out of Washington, the original good intentions and noble motives Of the public information sections have been perverted to an amazing de- gree. The growth of the public inc formation machine in Washington began with the New Deal, and with the superimposlng of the defense effort on the New Deal, the public relations racket has become gov- erument cancer.
