OHOOSING CARRANZA. why Venustiano Carranza, hief of the Constitutionalists, have been singled out by the States as the proper person to ed with-recognition as head of facto government of Mexico, is plem which Will not be readily by those who have been fol- the situation kouth of the Rio k. Of all men Carranza seemed the last upon whom President . o7 11 Abfisors, would lay the lof approval. The very pledges de, as Par‘(,nf the bargain for ition, entbody the same for whose violation he had hela 4 bad repute by this gov- t. Witfi”all this, Secretary g and thé representatives of the [American . xepublics are of the they have done the right thing pgnizing Carranza. It is to ve 0, 'though time alone will tell. strange turn’of affairs, how- hat leads the six Latin-Ameri- plomats and our own Secretary e to a plan of action which not _they absolutely refused to er. They had previously re- | the fused to recognize Carranza, or Villa, or ‘any of the' Mexican ledders, until a peace conference had been held and a program of pacification agreed upon. This conference was not a suc- cess because Carranza refused.to take any part in it. This after the conferees had stipulated that any one of the Mexican leaders who refused to take part in the conference would be ig- nored in future proceedings. Yet, the action of Saturday, in recognizing Carranza completely upsets this. He is the one and only leader who re- fused to have part in the peace con- ference, he is the one who is now recognized as capable of setting up substantial government in Mexico. This Mexican problem has been growing from bad to worse for some time. It is one of the most difficult situations ever faced by a president of the United States: Divine Provi- dence seems to be the only power capable of handling it. All human efforts having failed at bringing about order from chaos, probably the Latin- American diplomats and our own statesmen have decided to take a long chance in the finai outcome. Natural- ly, some leader had to be recognized. Like trying to seek an, honest man in a den of thieves, the problem of get- ting a substantial man in Mexico is a difficult one, and Carranza, not being any worse than the others in the field, has been give the choice. His prom- ises anent the rights of foreigners, religious liberty for Mexican priests and, nuns, a general amnesty and a re- turn to constitutional government, can be taken at their face value. With Villa and the others on his track, as they are sure to be, General Carranza will have to do better in the future than he has in the past. It is now entirely up to him. The United States has pledged itself to aid him in bringing about different conditions in war- ridden Mexico. It is to be hoped he makes the best of his opportunities, for, after all, we do not care who does the work, providing it is done. When all is said, there is not much choice between Villa and Carranza, or the outlaw Zapata, or any other Mex- ican leader. Tney are pretty much the same. SUBMARINE VS. DREADNOUGHT)| In formulating the outline for a bigger, better and greater navy, the experts who are working on the plan to be presented to congress by the ad- ministration are profiting by the mis- takes and successes of other nations; by what has been and what has not been done by the European powers at war. When, at the beginning of the submarine campaign waged by Ger- many, there was a great clamor for the undersea boat, many contended that the navy department should urge an enormous spending of money for craft of this type. Not long ago, after a lull in the activities of the Kaiser’s TU-boats, it was announced that the British admiralty had devised and had been operating a method for the complete elimination of the wary sub- rarine. Then there was a radical change in policy advocated by those who had previously urged the United States to spend huge amounts in building a submarine flotilla. Hav- ing seen that nets and high speed motor boats, carrying mounted guns especially devised to destroy sub- marines, were very effective, the ex- perts immediately advocated sticking to the dreadnought, the vessel that has been tried and not found wanting. All of which goes to show that there is a division of opinion as to the relative merits of the battleship and the submarine. One faction would have the government give its sole attention to the development of the undersea boat, the other would sanction nothing but the superdread- nought. Whether the dreadnought will win out over the submarine re- mains to be seen. As against placing t0o much faith in either of these types of war vessels, it is advocated by those who should know that the ad- ministration would do well to adopt a golden medium, to lean neither to the ove side nor the other; but to arrange for a just proportion of each. Be- cause .the submarine has proved t- self not as formidable a fighting craft as was first supposed is no reason for ils being totally neglected. While the dreadnought may be looked upon as the very foundation of a great navy, the submarine has already place as a wonderful adjunct, and should be so considered until time proves either its uséfulness or its un- worthiness. The United States, with possible exception of Great Eritain, needs a bigger navy than any other of the world powers, Because of our geographical situation, because we have such great coast lines, we must have every available type of fighting craft in time of war. For this reason then, we need battleships, and cruisers, and submarines, and every kind of naval fighting craft that will protect us against an enemy whose only way of getting to us is across the great seas. We eannot depend too much on any one particular type of war won its marine. We must hav’e our full quota of each and every kind used by the nations of the world. These are the days when all things of this sort must be considered, and weighed well. It is nothing more nor less than ponder- ing over the old adage, an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure FACTS AND FANCIES.

Editor New Britain Herald: Sir:—I was very much surprised and greatly shocked to see the notice of the death of Samuel J. Griswold, Guilford, Conn,, in your paper this 2vening. He was a dear comrade and Iriend of mine, having served to- gether in the same regiment during the Civil war, and we were prisoners of war in Andersonville at the same time. Although he had been ailing for many years he was always cheerful and owing to his kind disposition mwade a host of friends. His loyalty and patriotism was of the very strong- est. At the last meeting of the Con- pecticut Prisoners of War association he was elected its president and the members will mourn his loss and miss him greatly. WILLIAM F. STERNBERG, Secretary and Treasurer Conn. Prisoners of War Association. ‘War and Immigration. Are the tables being turned on us? In times past some fall promises and descriptions were circulated in Europe to assist emigration to this country. Money grew on trees in America- One had only to reach up and pluck it. Land was to be had for the asking. Jobs with fat wages attacked stood on street corners begging to be taken. A boundless and inexhaustible para- dise was to be found just across the Atlantic. Railroad and steamship agents grew eloquent with the theme. Now, as we see, Europe is made to beckon to America. And the appeal is both sentimental and material. Eu- ropeans in this country are urged to return to their homes and help re- store what the war has ravaged. Pa- triotism calls, Besides, there will be money in it. Henceforth the poor man will have a chance in Europw It will no longer be possible to keep him down over there. The old oppressive order for him in the new order. We must wait for the war to close | and the new order to manifest itself before this question The war is affecting so much, reach- ing so far, forecasts about anything are of doubtful value. Not improb- ably, however, America will continue to be borne of Europeans of an ad- venturous turn, who in making a change of field want to settle in the war vessel, be it dreadnought or sub- j most rewardful field in reach. of the Texas an- been | can be settled. | WHAT OTHERS SAY Views on all sides of timely questions as discussed in ex- changes that come to the Herald Office. Just “One of the Folks.” | (Springfield Republican.) One gets wearied of the words “human interest” as used so much of late, but surely that is what attaches | to the news of President Wilson’s en- | sagement at a time when other news of a less pleasing character is by the force of mighty events brought to the front. It will be a relief to the popu- lar mind to turn from the contempla- tion of Woodrow Wilson, the bearer ot great burdens, to the thought of him as soon to have someone to whom | ke can turn for sympathy with full | assurance that it will be given. As a matter of meeting the requirements of bis official position, there is wisdom in this move of the president. The old saying that one is half a man when bearing his load alone is usually | justified, and always so providing the | cther burden-bearer is of the help- | ful and broadening sort. It is not good for a man to be alone in the White House. There are social obligations to be met there that .can only be properly discharged by a tactful woman. The fact that Mrs. Galt is by birth a Virginian is in itself warrant of charm and implies well i nigh the certainty that she will be | adequate to the duties that fall on a | wife of the president of the United | SBtates. These are not defined by law, | tut they are none the less real and important. The picture which the Pepublican gave yesterday of Mr. | Wilson and Mrs. Galt at a ball game commanded the attention of our readers as no other single feature in the paper could do. It is not all of the presidency to Cecide public policies, make appoint- | ments to offices and to send messages to congress. The individual among a | hundred million of us, whom Mr. Pryan has called “our hired man,” is entitled to same life apart from the public, and we shall all be glad that it is to be given to Mr Wilson. It will not be deplored by sensible people that Mrs. Galt does not appear to belong to the strenuous modern iype of woman. When she refused to tell a woman reporter whether she was interested in woman suffrage, or to be interviewed on any other topic, there was revelation and reassurance in the fact. The ‘“restful woman” still has her place in the sscheme of human affairs. If in due course this chosen one will take good care of the president of the United States, and discharge the duties of mistress cof the White House in the tactful and charming way that distinguished Mrs. Cleveland, she may be sure of the respect and affection of the people. Doing so she will add to the popularity of the administration. But all that is running ahead of the story. For the present the fact that President Wilson sent a bouquet from the White House conservatories to Mrs. Galt’s home on Monday, and was in New York yesterday to buy an en- gagement ring, interested every man | end woman in the United States, not t> mention the boys and girls. These simple facts, when the chief factor is the head of the nation, never a com- monplace at any time, are of high interest and they touch us all with tie fellow feeling that begets sym- pathy. This is a time when every- body can look upon President Wilson as “just one of the folks.” Not Our Particular Worry. (Bridgeport Post.) Times are certainly getting harder and harder every day. Our last year's Fall hat cost three dollars, but the one bought October first cost five. Just about as soon as we were able increase in the cost of living our eyes lit upon a notice in one of the New York dailies concerning the ad- vanced price of the ‘“‘family pint” of | beer. It seems that in good old New York the retail dealers have agreed to advance the price from ten to fifteen cents. That is the last straw on the camel's back, and if we had not already given up beer as a beverage we should proceed to do it today. The local, hydraulic prod- uct is at least, a little cheaper than beer and claimed to be as pure. There is, however, one thing that bothers us In connection with the whole subject. The increased cost is made because of the additional liquor taxes and the high licenses. This leads us to ask if liquor is right, why is it taxed any more than tea or coffee? If liquor is wrong as a beverage, does the license make it right? Can right be bought at all in a matter of this kind? It it can be what is the price? A Right of Citizenship. (New Haven Register.) The exercise of the franchise should be esteemed a privilege, and every man possessing the right to it should be encouraged to make the legitimate most of his right. Especially should | those who, formerly subjects of other governments, come for the first time | to vote in the new coungey of their adoption, who probably exercise for the first time that distinctive privi- lege of the free citizen, the vote, be impressed with the dignity of the occasion. As the Register has re- peatedly said, the voting places which | we in New Haven were compelled to use six or eight vears ago were not | of such a nature as to have that ef- fect. They were on the contrary calculated to give the impression that voting was so unimportant that any | shed or store or corner of conveni- | ence was good enough for its per- formance. The Register cannot let the occasion | of today’s voting pass without calling | attention to a material and commend- | | able change. Today, for the first | | time since New Haven became large | I enough to require more than one poll- | ing place, all of its voting has been | in public or semi-public build- In Ward One, the voting was | In ten of the other | done | ings. | in city hall. | an to stand up under the sorrow of this| | how | the expense, wards, it has been in school buildings. | In three wards it has been in engine houses. In the Ninth ward, the vot- ! ing was in the Masonic hall of the colored Masons on Webster street, a semi-public building. We have school buildings of impressive dignity, our | engine houses are of attractive ar- chitecture and surroundings. All of these places are suited to the import- ance of the act of voting. We have made a material and encouraging ad- vance by thus recognizing the right | of citizens to a meeting place where they may gather to vote with pride. A New Planet. (Boston Post.) Through the murk of the smoke of | the European war, the director of the observatory at Barcelona University in Spain has caught sight of a new | planet, as he believes, far outside our solar system. While the limit of our visible uni- verse has for almost three-quarters of a century been regarded as the or- bit of the planet Neptune, there have been several suggestive visions of possible wandering bodies outside. If the Spanish astronomer has caught one of these, his name will have place alongside of that of LeVerrier in astronomic annals. There is no other of the natural sciences in which the demand upon a discoverer is so imperative that he | shall make good by ‘‘showing” what he claims to have found. And for such as may find things in the “ast- nesses some billions of miles away, beyond Neptune, there is difficulty of demonstrating to incredulous rivals the reality of that which they think they have seen. But perhaps founq ft. the Spaniard has ‘What of the Divinity Schools? (Providence Journal.) The preliminary figures of registra- tion at Harvard University show a total of 4259 students—206 more than last year. But in the Divinity School there are only 12 Graduates, 3 Seniors, 5 Middlers, 3 Juniors and 1 ‘“Unclassified,” making a total of 24. This might not appear a very seri- ous matter if similar tales did not come from other divinity schools. The anything like the interest in preparation for the ministry that they are taking in preparation for medicine or the law—or business ad- ministration or dentistry, if we may judge from the Harvard figures. In the Medical School there are 106 first year men, in the Law School 302—and in the Divinity School 3. No student of the trend of the times can fail to be interested in such a showing. a cost of approximately $5,000,000 for buildings and equipment, and an annual outlay of from two and a half to three millions for maintenance. We find in the Washington dispatch con- taining this information this state- ment: “It would be located on tide- water and near, but not in, a large city.” The city of New London, in the good old state of Connecticut, at once suggests itself to our mind as the suitable place for this new laboratory of research and experiment. For all practical intents and purposes New London is large enough a city in its social offerings, and its nearness to very large centers of population, to be brought in under the head of the ‘large city” indefinitely alluded to by the consulting board in their recom- mendation. It has one of the finest harbors on the whole New England coast, and is topographically extra- ordinarily adapted to conceal an in- stitution whose work is best carried in secret. From the point of view, too, of the personnel of the consult- ing board, New London, would con- serve the convenience of the members as well as any place on the whole At- lantic seaboard. We hope to learn that the pubiic- spirited citizens of that city have al- ready broughtr to the attention of the proper authorities the extraord- inarily suitability of their home town for the object under discussion. They should not only act for themselves, but they should at once receive the hearty support of the congressional delegation from this state in both balls of legislation, and of, as well, the members who were until last March the representatives from this state in the national house of repre- sentatives. The one hundred and sixty- eight towns of Connecticut, in other words, should stand shoulder to shoul- der in calling the attention of the federal authorities to the rare prom- ise of satisfaction which New Lon- don can confidently offer. It is not a local issue; it is a state issue. The Matinee Girl. (Columbus (O.) State Journol.) A breath of perfume freights the air, a hustle of silk and a swish of skirts, and there’s melodious laughter that thrills and thrills and a sea of laughing faces from which autumnal winds have chased the semi-tan of summer. All of this is framed in a golden sunshine crowned by a blue and white sky. Thus the stage is set for the Mat- inee Girl.—Philadelphia Public Led- ger, We are going to hire that man to write for us a description of a boiled cabbage dinner. We think he can do it justice. The man who Amecricanism, (Waterbury What is real Americanism, that Democrat.} beholds with such rapture the matinee girl will not fail us when it comes to a feast of boiled cabbage. much vaunted thing which we prize so highly and cling to so proudly? in 1 Edwin Lawrence Godkin, Irishman who had emigrated to this country to enter the American bar, and who later hecame the founder and editor of the Nation, af- ter an extended tour of the southern states and several years of residence in New York city, wrote: “I am far from pretending that the politics were all pure and the politicians all pa- triotic. But the air was full of the real ‘Americanism.” The American gospel was on people’s lips, and was preached with fervor. Force was worshipped, but it was moral force; it was the force of reason, of hu- manity, of human equalit; of a good example.” Did the future edi- tor overestimate our ‘‘Americanism” in his first opinion of it It is to be hoped that he did not and that this kind of American spirit is still ours. Actual military preparedness seems necessary in this staxe of civilization, armed force seems to be having its day. For the very reason the wor- ship of moral force is even more es- sential in order to maintain the prop- er balance. to keep our military de- velopment within sane and wholesome bounds. “Reason, humanity, human » a good example’'—what pos- sibilities for power, for leadership, for service to the world these suggest! If they are the backbone of ‘“réal Americanism” as it is today, more power to it! If they are not, then real Americanism needs that they should be earnestly and humbly cul- tivated. Fighting The Hook Worm. (Waterbury American.) Great as its resources are, the Rockefeller foundation is not under- taking to eradicate the hook worm disease by its own efforts alone. The | disease affects people in a zone around the earth, on both sides of the equa- tor, about 66 degrees wide, and in- cluding a population of 900,000,000 This is too much of a job for even a Rockefeller foundation, which has alarmed some good souls by the vast- ness of its means and power. Its work has to a considerable degree been educational. It has discovered the disease can be eradicated, what is necessary in ‘order to make any part of the globe habitable ond free from it. But it cannot handle such an im- mense proposition alone. Tt takes part of it, as it has sections of the Southern States, and done there thor- ough work. Then-it enlists the in- terest of the governments of the parts of the world affected and places at their disposal its knowledge and ad- vice and working material. It no doubt also contributes generously to but for the most part the governments themselves must | make the application of the fruits of | the Rockefeller foundation’s expensive and laborious discovery. Co-opera- tion of everybody interested is the keynote of success and to secure this is the task of the foundation as indi- ‘ cated in its latest report. To Your Base, New London. (New Haven Journal-Courier.) The news from Washington is to the offect that the new naval consult- ing board of which Wizard Edison is chairman, Have reached one con- clusion already. They recommend the establishment of a great naval re- search and experimental laboratory at Kindness Not Dead. The exchange editor of a large newspaper, who has the reading of a great number of publications, says he is convinced that kindness is not dead. He constantly finds in the country correspondence stories of help extended to people who have had hard luck- If & man has a fire or an illness or other trouble, the neighbors have a ‘bee. They har- vest some crop, supply him with fuel, or perform some waiting task. In city life the people of tenement districts will give up their last dol- lar to help a neighbor in misfortune It is in town life, among people of easy circumstances, that there is the least visible charity. This is partly because there are few obvious hap- penings to stir syvmpathy. But the fact that a person and his neighbors are living in plenty should not ob- scure the plight of others. There are always those who need help who are easily enough found by charita- bly disposed persons.
