How Times Flies

It can't be twelve years since Governor raymond E. Baldwin, as legislator from Stratford filed in the General Assembly bill that provoked as loud protest from the Republican press of Connecticut as we ever have heard, Naturally It was pleasing to the Demo- crats who had elected Dr. Wilbur L. Cross to the governorship the previous fall, as well as to the scant few Demo cratic journals, among them The Demo- crat. Briefly what Representative Bald win proposed then was that the power of appointment by the governor be limited. In short he had to submit ap- polntments to the Senate by April of the year in which tho officials term expired If such nomination failed of approval within IS days the Senate and House could by concurrent vote fill the position.
 Even the rock-ribbed Hartford Courant couldn't stomach this attempt to "steal" the powers of Governor Cross and the campaign against the measure was taken up on every side. By the time the bill got to committee 1t was as notorious as any piece of legislation could possibly be. It never was reported out by the committee, but died quick death within plgeon-hole, where 1t belonged and where 1t should have been kept. But his tory seems to be repeating itself. Or maybe Governor Baldwin feels that If the same type of legislation Is proposed with a Republican chief executive in power the curse will be taken off 1t and people won't entertain the same thoughts they did in 1881.
 But the present proposal that appoint ments by the governor must be approved by both houses of the Legislature; they must be made by April i; failure to comply with the time limit gives the Legislature the right of appointment simply makes 1t harder for any governor to retain official face. It's hard to see why Governor Baldwin would counte- nance such transgression of his powers by the General Assembly. It's hard to understand how the Republican-dom- mated Assembly can imagine that the voters of this state will be fooled by any explanation of why such legislation as this is recommended It not merely is political in intent, but it further serves to prove how politically-minded this Leg islature has become in the midst of the wars turmoil and strife.

POss.War Security

While the war is holding the attention of all, what will come to pass and plans for postwar living are considered more and more as time goes on, Wednesday President Roosevelt sent to Congress recommendation for legislation that will protect one and all.
 First thought is for the homecoming service men. They have to be taken care of; they should be taken care of; in fact, they must. Many struggled along after World War and never did get placed properly. Then there are all our civil fans. For them there is the long-planned "cradle-to-g grave" security. And last but not least a postwar set-up for industry. These things were outlined in 40,000 word reports. For certain industries there would be joint United States and private ownership; for others complete federal control.
 There is much to ponder and digest in the lengthy reports, A "cradle-to- grave" security through broad social insurance plan would take care of all through life. Through this everyone would be protected against sickness, old age, dependency, want, accident and so on. It would not be possible to go into all the phases of the suggested plans. Needless to say the recommendations will have, broad and careful study by all those interested in our future from now on'

We Really Are Good

The thorough drubbing administered by General MacArthur'S bomberS to a 22-ship Japanese convoy near New Guinea confirms further what had become in- creasingly evident that even at the other fellows game of war there is noth- ing decadent or soft about Americans. Consistently since Pearl Harbor, man for man and weapon for weapon, we have shown ourselves superiorS to the Japan ese, though they had been trained long and diligently while we were rank anna teurs. Likewise, in Africa our men ad- justed themselves, after preliminary de- feat by Rommels hardened veterans, and took the play away from the Old Fox of the Desert. American fighting men are not the best in the world Australians, Canadians, English, Czechs, Russians, to mention only those which have had op- portunity to prove themselves fully, are as good as Americans. But they are no better, and that is another way of saying that there are no better in the world. Perhaps it is unfair to omit the Chinese, in view of the results they have achieved under tragic handicaps; but they can hardly be included until, given the tools, they are permitted to show what they can do with them.
 It is fortunate that the British, at home and in the dominions, and the Americans have preserved the spirit which makes good soldiers out of peace-minded civilians. Otherwise democracy would have been destroyed before preliminary handicaps could have been overcome. Having surmounted that obstacle of un- preparedness, we now see our soldiers, sailors and marines demonstrate on land, at sea, in the air, their ability to whip the type of man produced by totalitar- ianism.
 We are proud of the military record of our men. We must not, however, be- come overconfident even now. We have the men. We can make for them the weapons. But still they are laboring under the handicap of enormous dis tances, which present serious transport problems unknown to our enemies be- cause of their interior position.
 It is going to take all that we can dish out to overcome the obstacles In our course. The men in uniform have demon

Worth Trying

OPA Director Prentiss Brown believes that compulsion Is necessary with crim- inals but that patriotic men and women will cooperate in the war program If compliance is put on on "honor basis. He is trying out his faith by removing harassment methods from enforcement of the ban against pleasure driving in the East.
 We hope that MT. Brown Is correct. We believe that he Is taking the proper approach in not treating the general public like a nation of unconvicted crim- inals, But If he Is wrong, and If the people prove themselves unworthy of his trust, we hope that MT. Brown will not hesitate to crack down hard,

Popular Red Tape

The Federal Budget Bureau Is planning to throw yards of red tape about wash ington's favorite pastime, the promulga- ton of questionnaires The public IS advised hereafter to ignore such pestifer- ous queries as do not bear the imprima- tur of the budget. :,
 This Is one administrative order and one use of bureaucratic red tape which will arouse no protest. It will save money, manpower and the time of hard-pressed executives. It may even help to save that institution beloved of every politi- clan, the American home, which has sur vived sometimes with difficulty the raw nerves brought home every night by har- assed business men.

ever you do never set out to make a person anything else but a friend"
 4 little boy once expressed great admiration for a neighbor, a man about his fathers age. When asked why he particularly liked this man his reply was. "Well, he's big and can take long steps, but he always walks little with me-" Here was a man who considered it worth while to adapt himself to the ways of sinall boy. We can assume that he was popular with his fellow adults also.
 The fact that Jesus knew how to meet all people at the level of com. plete understanding is perfectly apparent to everyone who reads the New Testament. Whether 1t was a dishonest tax gatherer. or q woEa- an of the streets. or a neglected cripple. or an honest questioneT. Jesus seemed to understand perfect ly the person he was talking with, and to be able readily to adapt hiIn- self to his or her needs. When he found a little person, he walked little" with him. He was accused of many things but never of q lack of sympathy and understanding as he mixed with His fellow men. All Rights Reserved-Ba Bahson News

The Ides of March are practically on use in the form of income tax day, March IS. If we depend on tradition the "1des" name the day of the murder of Julius Caesar of ancient times. So since then the Ides stand for any suspicious day. Next Monday looms auspiciously. Last minute bookkeeping and figuring and adding and subtracting are occupy ing considerable time of those who have to sign on the dotted line. Many more are signing this year than since the in- come taxes were first filed. The immense army of factory workers who hace never before filed an income tax. Many of them are. pretty much dis turbed about the whole thing. Taxes are high this year; higher than ever before, and we may list it this year as pretty general worry, no one sighted.

Press Comment
THE GOVERNOR lNvoKEs

Gov. Baldwin has made 1t possible for our women folk to 90 into war industry on equal terms with the men; they can work at night-all night If they wish--and can work longer hours than the state law al- lows.
 The governor, like all other offl- cials, Is keenly alive to the need for man and woman power--a need that is headlined on front pages daily.
 Those who thought that the spe- cial war powers which the governor sought might well be held in check which includes this department have the satisfaction of knowing that this watchfulness caused the Legislature to tie sufficient strings to the special powers law to make 1t virtually impossible for the gov- ernor to make an error last long not longer than six months. The governor. in other words, can set aside laws, but If he sets aside the wrong oie--or what the Legislature thinks is the wrong one-the action can be nullified in half a year.
 The governor now has a deal of extra power and should be very pru- dent with it. The start he has made in using his prerogatives seems to be quite generally approved.

MT. wendell Willkie could tell us how long or how short in time and space if he chose to tell secrets. He does tell us in the current Readers Digest" that our nearest neighbour in Siberia are extraordinarily like, in many ways. the people who were still setting western regions of the United States in Mr. Willkie's boy hood. There were things about Ya- kutsk, obvious and subtle, that made him think of Elwood, Ind.

The big boss of Yakutsk, a republic big ger than any other in the U. s. s.

If you are a morale builder, do you qualify for draft deferment? This is a hard question to decide because morale builders are here, there and everywhere, including radio work. Actors, musicians: all these could come under the head of morale builders; also teachers and moth CTS; not to forget uncles and aunts: It all boils down to deciding through lndl- vidual cases. A radio star may certainly be a morale builder and is practically indispensable. Many other persons have thought themselves indispensable, but when it comes to a showdown the dra1t has first title to them as individuals. C'eSt la guerre!

 The red d-headed major Is now Q major general, who presides over the clestinles of millions of American men. The name Is Lewis B, Hershey.
 "But if we do have to get Into it-," Hershey added, leaving the thought incomplete.
 Hershey mentioned the figure of 7,600,000 men as the strength of the U. 8. Army. This is the figure the President Is insisting on today. The record now reveals that it has been Q basic figure in War Department planning for years.
 Hershey said ct that time, more than three years ago, that the first draft would take men be- tween 2i and 30, which after de- ferments would provide an army of about 3,000,000 men. This should be enough Co make . pow. ful army" he said, but if it isn't, ther age groups will be called, un- til . total of 7,S00,0O0 men are in uniform"

 A neighbor. by definition, is a "dweller next door. rear, in the same street or village or district. or in adjacent country: esp. regarded as one who should be friendly" Tn the Western Hemisphere the United States numbers among its nearest good neighbors Canada. Mexico and Cuba. It's often forgotten or un- realized that we have a neighbor in the Eastern Hemisphere only five miles farther away than Mexico and Canada; a hundred miles nearer than Cuba. For it is Q geographical fact that there are Siberian islands that are only i've miles away from islands of Alaska Territory.

Selected Poem
TRUMPET WINDS

TRUMPET WINDS Virginia Elizabeth Black in the Christian
 Science Monitor) The winds are out again tonight. Trumpets sound from vale and height; And swiftly as the night birds fly They ride their cloud steeds down the sky. The winds are bugling clear and long, A high adventure in their song; They race along the stretch of sea- Haze garments trailing wild and free. The trumpet winds are on the hill, The world Is waiting-silent, still; Then-bugles sound along the height, The winds are out again tonight.
