Is the Dye Problem Soived? (Ansonia Sentinel) Upwards of 100,000 people in the United States wiill be glad to have ‘the truth established of the discovery of a new black dyve by the experts of the American Co-operative chem- ical and Dye works at Chester, this state, whiich will render us inde- pendent of the products of German chemistry in . future. Just at present the textile industry is threatened with serious trouble because of the block- ade of German ports and the deter- mination of German manufacturers to use dye products as a lever with which to influence American public opiinion. As-a result of these two causes there are no dyestuffs coming here from abroad- Such a conditon, if indefinitely continued, would close many of our mills. But if the dis- coveries reported at the Chester fac- tory are really practicable then the problem is in process of solution and the United States will be independent of the world in future as regards dyestuffs, So too in regard to carbolic acid crystals, which were never before evolved in this country but had to be imported. A practical process for turning them out has been found hy the Chester expert chemists. The two discoveries will prove a genuine hoon te American business and it is to be hoped that our chemists = will now turn their attention to other defi- clencies in our productive markets and ascertain the ways and means by which we can make ourselves self- supporting in regard to all sary raw material.

There is enough | ingenuity, and chemical knowledge in | /the United States to solve every pro? | lem that may come up in connection | with manufacturing and trade.

(Bridgeport Telegram.) What the hotrse thief was in days of old, the automobile thief is teday. He has a faster steed—when he steals it—but the means of coi- munication are.better and there is a chance of heading him off. All the romance of roguery is not dead In Bridgeport and vicinity there has been such an epidemic of auto- mobile stealing lately that it seems as though a gang of thieves must be at work. Perhaps they have becn attracted to the by stories of Bridgeport's prosperity. At any rate, here they are and it is up to the authorities and the automobile Oowners to deal with them. There was a time when to drive an automobile was such a complicated and technical study that an owner who had spent six months in trying to master the peculiarities of one machine, and then couldn’'t make ib g0 more than 10 miles without —a breakdown, feit reasonably certain that when he hitched his motormus to a curb, it was there to stay. ' In fact many a time if a thief had come along and offered to start the Plooming thing, the owner would have blessed him. Today it is far different. Types of automobile control are now so stand- ardized that they are practically re- duced to two general classifications— planetary gear-shift and selective. The thief who knows these two types can get away with practically any car, for the details of levers and controls are simple and easily picked up. The best way to prevent automo- bile thievery is to leave the cars lock- ed. Removing the ignition key s not always sufficient, but at least it is a deterrent. Better still is a good positive lock—one that a thief can- not overcome without more tamper- ing than he will care to take time for. That is a pretty sure guarantee of safety. But the owner who neglects it is taking a long chance, as the frequent reports of stolen automo- biles demonstrate. the The Splendid Story of the Nereide, (Waterbury Republiican.) They ought to be dead men,—those survivors of the crew of the sunken Italian submarine Nereide- An Aus- trian submarine crippled and appar- ently <unk her and reported the feat. Inasmuch as it was the first record- ed fight between submarines, the af- fair attracted quite some attention, and inasmuch as the Nereide did not retrrn, the Ttalian government ad- mitted the loss .But three days later the Nereide turned up- It seemed that she dived to escape a torpedo and when she tried to rise again, her machinery .had gone wrong, worst of all, her electric lighting apparatus had broken down and she lay on bottom in total dark- ness. Her crew of forty were as good as dead right then, but they re- fused to admit it. For seventy hours they worked in the dark, feeling for the fault or break in the machinery and finally found it. repaired it and ~ to the surface. Three men were dend, one of them the commander, and two morce died after the vessel came up into the fresh air, but thirty- five men of (he crew were saved.

During the past year there were 592 women studying medicine, or 39 less’ than last year, a decrease of 48 below 1913, and a decrease of 537 (47.6 per cent.) below 1914, when 1,129 ‘women students. the largest number, were reported. The percen- tage of all medcal students was 4, larger than last vear. There were 130 women graduates this year, 9 more than last year, or 3.7 Der cent. of all graduates. Of all the women matriculants, 116 (19.6 per cent.) were in attendance at the two medical colleges for women, while the Temaining 462 (80.4 per cent.) were matriculated in the 53 coeducational colleges. From the two women's col- leges there were 38, or 29.2 per cent., of all women graduates, while 92, or ' 70.8 per cent., secured their de- grees from cocducational colleges The number of collerges is the | smallest since 1880, at which time began the rapid movement toward creating medical colleges, many of which were conducted for profit. The rapid increase in the number of col- leges hbetween 1880 and 1904 has Deen paralleled only by the rapid decrease since 1904. There has been a net decrease of 66 colleges since 1906, when there were 162, and when this country had about one-half of rorld’s supply of medical colleges. two colleges have been closed by merger or otherwise since 1904, but in the same time twenty-five new colleges were crganized, leaving 95 medical colleges which still exist. The net reduction has been 67 colleges, or 41.4 per cent. The non-sectarian leges number 83, a decrease of 4 since last year. The homeopathic colleges number 8, or 2 less than last year, and the eclectic colleges num- ber 4, one less than last year. The non-sectarian colleges show a net reduction of 47, or 36.1 per cent., since 1906, when there were 130, the largest number of non-secturian med- ical colleges. The homeopathic col- leges show a net decrease of 14, or 63.7 per cent., since 1901, when 22, the largest number of homeopathic colleges, were in existence. The eclec- tic colleges show a net reduction nf 6, or 60 per cent., since 1901, when ther existed 10, the largest number of eclectic colleges. These figures are taken from the annual educa- tional number of The Journal of the American Medical Association. (regular) col- The Automobile Industry. (From the Peoria (I1l) Star.) The Davenport Democrat Leader declares that in only states of the ['nion are more auto- mobiles owned than in Iowa. Only three states get a larger revenue from the owners of the cars. The dis- proportion is entirely wiped out when one takes into consideration the Wealth, the population and the miles of good roads in New York state, for instance, and noies that they own less than three automobiles in that state for every two owned in JTowa. For the first time an offictal com- pilation of automobile registration has been made by the department of agricultur, At the end of 1914 there were 1,66 84 pleasure automobiles in the United Statees, and in addi- ‘tion 44,355 motor trucks, or a total of 1,711,339 motor vchicles in usse thdoughout the country.

Waiting for a New Attack. (Ansonia Sentinel.) No decent self-respecting Christian can have any real sympathy for the Turks, who are responsible for the massacre of thousands of Armenians in Asia Minor, nor for the imperial «lly, whose own campaign of fright- fulness makes entirely permissible the Turkish resort to wholesale killing. The Turk has been from time imme- morial an adept at the delicate art of extermination. He is also a past mas- ter in ingenious ways of torture and general rapine. It is only recently that Germany, under the impulsion of its doctrine of frightfulness, has sayed to rival the Turk in the horror of making war but the world is ready to admit that the pupil has little to learn from the master of wholesale killing, when it comes to actual prac~ tice. Nevertheless, little the neutral sympathizes with the Turk, his present plight seems pitiable and the end of his career in Europe near. One ally is soon to be detached by force from the Teutonic trinity, whose doctrine is to leave ‘only eyes for their enemies to weep with.” Turkey is the only certain loser in thiz world war. Should the Teutonic allies win the Turks would exchange their empire for the pitiable lot of vassalship to a dominant and arrogant Germany, which would take from her all of her Asiatic hinterland and Mesapotamia. If the allies win she will be driven from FEurope as an unclean thing, foreign to all of the ideals of civiliza- tion and humanity. No matter how the war ends Turkey stands to lose and the knowledge of this basic fact may even now be permeating into Turkish consciousn Hard put to it as she is to hold the British and French at bay in the Dar- aanelles campaign the entrance of Italy would seem to indicate a ma- terial lessening of the time left her before the arrival of sure disaster. Italian ships are already on-the sea bearing the troops which may spell the end for Turkey in Europe. It is the devout hope of a Christion world that such is the case. The expulsion of the Ottoman is demandeed by the self respect of Christendom. He has polluted Europe too leng. Soon or late the Turk must become a purely Asiatic power as this Itallan expedi- tion may wdll mark the beginnmg of ‘he exodus. as Ch (W Chinatown in New York is moving over into Jersey. Pell and Mott streets are full of vacant stores and tenements out of which Chinese have moved within the last few months. One of the reasons is that business has fallen off. Chinatown no longer attracts visitors who wused to come and leave much money in restaurants #nd in curiosity stores. Another re son is the enforcement of the excise law and the stern application of the law against gambling. Instead of visitors bringing money have come police raiders nntil life became risky and burdensome In Jersey City and in Newark it is said that these Chinese are establish- ing a .new race center where as yet their forms of business and amuse- ment are tolerated and where they are finding a welcome relief from persecution There are signs today that the old Chinese quarter in New York is going to fill up with a dif- ferent class of people and with a better kind of trade. For example, cne block vacated by Chinese has been turned into a modern tenement house and a store vacated by Chinese has been taken by an American un- dertaking firm. A Minority Report.
