We re- print herewith his letter to the Sun: To the Editor of the Sun—Sir: Most Americans are splendid and true allies; but is not Woodrow Wilson, since his recent appeal, the laughing stock of Europe as a superegolst? Does he think he is the one infallible person on God's earth? Does he presume to speak for the American people, when they are no more allowed to express their opinions than are tbe Ger- mans? ’ Was he not too puerile to per- mit Leonard Wood, the only Am- erican officer with European rep- utation, and Theodore Roosevelt, the best known and most loved American, to go across? A mere Englishman would ask in all due deference, if Mr. Wilson js not trying to out-Kai- ser the Kaiser? 1f America is a real democracy, as Bngland is, should this be al- lowed ?

That's about enough for today, old love. Ta-ta! WHAT ROOSEVELT'S OPINION IS WORTH. Loudest in the chorus of attackers of President Wilson for asking the country to elect a Democratic Con- is Theodore Roosevelt. At York Mon- gress speech delivered in New day night he said: Mr. Wilson says that this is no time for divided counsels. Yet the Constitution of the United States says that he must counsel with the Congress of the United States. It is mere insolence for the servant of the people to say that he will not counsel with those other servants of the peo- ple whom the people have elect- ed for the express purpose of giving him counsel. The world would be better off now by hun- dreds of thousands of fearles: lives and by many billions of dol- lars of treasure if Mr. Wilson had been willing to supplement his own self-sufficient ignorance by the counsel of those who would gladly have counselled him wisely, but who would not creep into his presence as slaves. And yet in 1898, in a political ad- dress during the Congressional paign of that year, this same man said: Remember that, will it or not, your votes this year will be viewed by the na- tions of Europe from one stand- point only. They will draw no fine distinctions. A refusal to sustain the President this year will, in their eyes, be read as a refusal to sustain the war and to sustain the efforts . of our Peace Commission to secure the fruits of war. Such a refusal may not inconceivably bring about a rupture of the peace ne- gotiations. It will give heart to our defeated antagonists. It will make possible the interference of those doubtful neutral nations who_ in this struggle have wishe. us ill. whether vou Here is one of lat- more instance Roosevelt's consistency In his est speech he praises Governor Whit- man, candidate for re-election, as follows: I ask for the support of Gov- ernor Whitman and all his asso- ciates, not only because of their record in office but also because this State cannot with wisdom see Tammany Hall extend its grip from New York to Albany. It not necessary to speak of personalities in such a matter. The reforms for which Governor Whitman stands are the very reforms which Tammany most opposes. Here is what Roosevelt said abo i Whitman four years ago: THE TRUTH IS NOT IN HIM. IT 1S AN ASTOUNDING THING THAT ANY SINCERE AND UP- RIGHT MAN CAN SUPPORT R. WHITMAN WHEN ALL HE HAS TO DO IS TO AC- QUAINT HIMSELF WITH THE FACTS IN ORDER TO GET A VIVID PICTURE OF WHIT- MAN'S DOUBLE DEALING. Therefore we must conclude that Roosevelt either did not inean what Really, old top, that was rubbing it in, a bit, don’t you know. You can't expect our President to become per- fect all at once, bécause we don't do things that way over herc. You shocked us horribly, old dear, about Whitman that he said four years ago, or he believes himself a member of that group of men who are neither sincere nor upright. Al how much importance should be attached of which goes to prove statesmen a | cam- | to what Roosevelt says. The roaring lion still goes about seeking whom he may devour. But he'll find the Pres- ident tough eating. WHOA, GEORGE! Mayor George A. Quigley went to Unionville one evening t week to convince the voters of that town that they should send him to Con- sress ihis year in place of the present eficient Representlative. Mr. Loner- an. If he was quoted correctly in the press, the Mayor attempted Fir some- thing rather elaborate. t he said that the President, in appealing for the election of a Democratic Con- gress “has deliberately insulted mil- lions of loyval Americans.” He added that “‘the President’s message will be received as an insult by these mil- who And lions of loyal American men have stood by the President.” again—"It will likewise be received as.an insult by the millions of sol- diers who are fighting bravely on the fields of France,” etc., etc. His Honor loves to talk about mil- lions, loves to deal in them. But we're afraid he went a bit too far when he attempted to speak for so many mil- Jions, both here and overseas. So far as we know, the Mayor has not been authorized by the public at large, or by particular of millions any group to state how the President’s appeal will be regarded. It would be the wiser policy to leave that to the vot- ers themselves. The Mayor is treading on danger- ous ground when he makes such statements about the commander-in- chief of the United States. He should that it in just such un- President to be reflect on the thought has been by indulging called for criticism of our that Roosevelt has come re- garded by many as a plain pest. It is apparent from the amount of correspondence exported from G¢rmany that the Kaiser has become | converted to the belief that the pen is mightier than the sword. Mayor Quigley announces that he wants no peace until the Allies’ flags are floating over the ruins of Berlin. But supposing the enemy capitulates before Berlin is reached. Will the Mayor msist on the boys fighting just the same? | THE TARES AMONG THE WHEAT. | o Some do to others @ Not have one do The golden rule for them A fitting diadem. they to them. is not would Should their bull gore another’s ox, That act should be ignored, Though it could not be overlooked, In case thelr ox was gored.

What the Encmy Would Think of the President’s Defeat. (New York Times) The following is a translation of an article which appeared in the Cologr Gazette of Aug. 17: “Little by little the winter of content is setting in for Wilson, dictator. At the beginning r the people will, grgssion elections, sit dis- the No- the Con- of in in Judgment over him and his war policies. The entire House of Representatives, with its 435 members, is facing a new election and of 96 Senators one-third to be elected What the verdict of America will be has been apparent since the Spring of 1917. The three or four special elections for the House of Represen- tatives, the Senatorial election in Wisconsin, and, above all, the Mayor- alty election in New York city of last November, show which way the tide fs turning; all of these elcctions went against Wilson, in spite of the intol- erable pressure of his party machine. Most significant was the first special election in New Ilampshire, where a Democrat who had died was sup- planted by a Republican. At that time Wilson had borrowed for the re- duction of the citadel the bizgest gun in his arsenal, Senator Lewis of the German city of Chicago, who as Dem- ocratic Party whip in the Senate and mouthpiece of the President is class- ed as a highly important personage. Lewis carried his artistic red Par wig up and down the State conjur the good people of New England by the, at that time still effective, for- mula that the election of a RepubH- can would mean a repudiation of Wil- san's war policies and tend to weak- en considerably the conduct of the war. But the election went against Wilson, notwithstanding the fact that the New Hampshire baclkwoods- men are anything but pro-German; their English descent alone would not allow of that. “However, quite a different con- struction must be placed on the New York Mayoralty election. John Pur- roy Mitchel, who was killed some weeks ago while training for the aviation service, was, as May one of the main baiters not only of Ger- many, but also of the German-Amer- fcans of his city. He was the author of the ottrage of the so-called Loy- alty lists, which during a house to house canvass, in 1917, every Ger- man-American was compelled to sign it he did not want to lose his position in the municipal or even private bus- iness houses. A similar act of moral coercion has never been committed either by the Spanish Inquisition or by the New England witch roasters of the pious city of Salem. And V son cxerted all his influence for the continuation in office of his friend Mitchel. It was all in vain; Mitchel syffered a defeat such has never before been recorded in the political history of New York. And if the German-Americans had not been so utterly bereft of all good political sense as they always have been, they might have driven home this defeat much more forcefully; for, with some slight support from their side, the Socialist, Hillquit, would have en- tered the City Hall as Mayor, and with him the most prominent oppon- ent of all that war folly “But even without this searchlight Wilson recognized the seriousness of the situation. With what fear and misgivings he approaches the great day when the people will voice public opinion. and how desperately he strives to turn the verdict in his fav- or, may be gleaned from the report in today's issue of our second morn- ing edition His personal interf. ence with the elections is a new de- parture even for America and one may be eager to know how the par- ty leaders of both sides, ‘the bosses are going to take it. One will hardly make a mistake in assuming that Wilson has stirred up a hornet’s nest when by his letters he attempted to create an atmosphere unfavorable to the Senato and Represent who had proved refractory. That sort of thing has never done any President any good though it has never been practiced before but on the smallest scale. But Wilson extends his dic- tatorial power now over everything He not only wants the sole control of the Government, and the conduct of the war, in its thousand ramificatiens, but in addition he also aspire nipulate the elections, thus curtailing the opportunity of people of one hundred millions to exercise to the limit its constitutional rights Vi son methods are the act of a perate man. No one knows that ter than himself. That he such steps shows how he distrusts the future. And just as he has, in 1917, thought les than nothing of interna- tional law when it suited him to do so, he also puts aside the Constitution the moment it becomes inconvenient to him. It is a trial of strength which Wilson thus provokes. If he succeeds, his dictatorship upon a foundation enabling him claim himself the C© of without fear of encountering opposi- tion, but the probability is that he will not succeed. In any event, the November elections will have a signi- ficance such as they never had before. as bet- takes rests to Ame pro- icag WORK OF HOSPITAL DURING THE YEAR Miss Bingham Reads Annual Re- port at Tea This Alternoon ! hospital 3ritain General The annual tea was held at the New this afternoon, and the report of the Mary A. Bingham, important part the the it seen hospital are many new conveniences the changes have been hoth the the personnel of the hospital secretary, Miss occupied an on program that the funds of growing and have By report is the been added during year. Several important made at the hospital, in buildings and nursing i, The principal the vear, the card party and dance held at the Country club, was productive of 4 gain to the hospital treasury of $1,042.256. Due to the stress of con- ditions caused by the war, gifts to the hospital and dollar memberships are somewhat smaller than in previous years. The report of the secretary follows: During this year changes have taken place in many of the institutions of our land because of the continuance of the war, and it is for this reason that our local hos- pital has likewise been considerably affected. As the call has come from time to time for competent nurses to £0 overseas the young women in train- ing have been moved to respond to that call and several have left us to enter the service of our country—chief among them was Miss Clara Des Jardens who for many years has been assistant to the matron and has filled her position most faithfully and ac- ceptably. It was with great regret that we severed our relations with Miss Des Jardens, but we felt that after her training at Camp Lee, Petersburg, Va., she would be a most valuable addition to the work ‘“over there.” W in social event of of 1918 great! are also informed that Miss Merrel who has been associated with hospital work for some years and has filled quite an important position is about to leave us for work abroad. At this particular time when con- tives ! ditions are so uncertain we are glad to feel that our matron, Mrs. Bassett, is still with us to carry the responsi- bilities and interests of our institu- tion. We are now getting to be a large plant and if our members would pay a visit to the hospital many of them would be surprised at the way in which our work has broadened out. We notice quite an increase in the number of nurses regularly employed, there being nine graduate nurses and twenty-nine pupil nurses including probationers. In order to house these young women comfortably, one of the buildings facing on Griswold street, belonging to hospital property has been converted into a home, and al- though the exterior is not specially attractive, the interior has been quite changed and the result is a yery pleas ant homelike place for the nurses’ quarters. There is now, as ever, the same need of more private rooms and this year as in other years we could use more rooms if we had them, but at present we shall make no further changes but do the best we can under existing circumstanc There is of course considerable expense involved in the upkeep of these private rooms and that expense is in some cases met by those who previously furnished the room. The Traut room, for instance, is kept up by the Traut families. The wards are usually filled, and the free bed is in use most of the time. This vear there has been a greater call for the Jane B. e bed than ever before, and we have d it to the limit of its income. Of late the dbmands have been so great that we have in some cases allowed the bed to be used, the bills being paid from our treasury. It is the policy of our board not to refuse, if possible, any worthy patient because of a lack of funds. It is well for us to pause right here and grate- | fully remember the one who some vears ago made it possible for those ck ones to have the benefit of the bed which she endowed. I refer to Miss Jane E. Case. The Maternity house and the Children’s housc have so relieved the congestion which existed Defore they were pro- vided, that we almost wonder how we ever maintained a hospital without them. The Maternity house is very pleasant and sunny and the rows of | small white cribs with a tiny occu- pant in each interests every visitor The Children’s house appeals to evers body and each person feels willing and ready to do anything for a suffering child. At present there is a call good strong toys, dolls, Teddy bea tea sets, in fact, anything which in- | terests a sick or convalescing child. In the past such things have been donated, but they are in constant use | and soon get broken or useless and | need to be replaced. Probably it is not known to all present that a chil- dren’s free bed fund was started some time ago, o that a sick child may have the benefit of a free bed as well as an adult. The cost of maintaining | it is the same as that of the bed for older people. Contributions to this fund would be a fine way of helping the hospital. Our other funds remain very much as they were last year. Our contagious ward fund is un- touched and is accumulating so that when the time comes for us to have a suitable place for taking care of such cases there will be a sum avail- able for the purpose. The children’s ward fund which is, as you perceive, different fund from the children's bed fund is growing all of the time and is used for supplying the many needs of the Children’s house. A word now in regard to bed linen. is getting to be a great task to sutficient amount: of bed for a free 1t provide the hospital when we coa- sider the cost of material at the pres- ent time and the requirements each | day, not omitting the constant changes linen for | Connecticut needed in many kinds of sickness, lt] is sometimes a problem to know just how to get a large enough quantity of such things. Let us hope that we shall never be in the position of our hospital which cannot keep enough linen on hand to change the beds but once a day. Whatever close calcu- Jating we may make do not let it be in the direction of clean bed linen. Our churches have come forward nobly to assist us by generous gifts of all such things, vet, even so, matron has been obliged to purcha: bed linen to the amount of $125. ‘We appreciate all the help of past years and we trus that many | churches will give this year as gener- ously as they possibly can in this di- rection. Donations. L year our usual appeal for offerings for Thanksgiving was made and was in the hands of Mrs. Justus A. Traut. The calls for jellies and delicacies for war purposes were so great that we were not quite sure whether our hospital would receive as much as usual. Mrs. Traut with her committee worked most faithfully and the public responded so well that it was said that never had there been so many good things received. This goes to show that New Britain does not forget her hospital. At Christmas the usual celebration was attsaded to | under the direction of Mrs. Hedley 1. Carter. Handkerchiefs were given to the women and socks to the men. In this work Mrs. Carter was assisted by her auxiliary committee. On this oc- casion Mrs. George Corbin was asked to take charge of the Christmas gifts ' in the Children’s house. The Sun\ shine society still continues to ‘“cast sunshine,” by carrying each week a | basket of oranges to be distributed among the patients. Time passes slowly and wearily to the sick and that little break in the monotony of the sick room is certainly appreciated. In regard to the social affairs“which take place annually for the purpose of raising money for the execuitve board as our part towards the run- ning expenses of the hospital we will | say that it is our custom to give a | card party or dance but this year we | proposed to bring a war lecturer to | New Britain instead. Mr. Empy was | the speaker under consideration, but on account of his talk in Hartford dur- | ing the winter it was thought best not to undertake it.

M.

The affair was most su cessful and enjoyable, and best of all the large sum of $1,042.25 was raised. Under conditions which were unfavor- able to us at that time we felt that our efforts were richly rewarded. This | vear we have not had quite the re- onse in the way of dollar member- | ships that we have had in other | years, and also there has been a fall- | ing off in special gifts. We lay this | of course to the unprecedented de- | mands made upon us b unfortunately expenses are very great and increasing all the time. It was thereforc considered ad- visable for the secretary to call the | attention of our people to the Jack through the cloumns of the press and in this way we received a few more | inemberships and several contribi- tions of money. Among the gifts was | a substantial sum from the ladies’ society of the Jewish church and we | were gratified by this expression of | interest in our local institution Just a word about a much neeced chonge at the hospital. Throush the | long corridor extanding from the main building to the hospital prouer rub- ber matting has been placed and the walls and ceilings have been reno- vated. The appearance of the corri- dor has not only been improved but rurses and patients testify to the fact that the rubber does away with con- siderable noise which w: formerly very trying to the patient In looking over our list of dire we find that we must now losc our board one of the valued members, Mrs. Hedley P. Carter, who took up the work of Mvs. William C. Hunger- ford during the year whe Mrs, Hun- gerford was obliged to aside her duties. Mrs. Carter ha removed from town and our best wishes follow her to her new home in Ansonia. In closing this report we wish to extend a word of thanks to our presi- | dent who is so faithfully leading us in our work and to all the officers and directors who ar ssociated with her. Also we would remember the services of the auxiliary and membership mmittees. Then we would not for- get our local pr who give u; pace s0 generously. We cannot thank l'iil’h: one separately, but we certainly ap- preciate their help and co-operation. Now one last plea for the hospital for the coming months. Our demands for money and time will not be less this winter than in years before and we expect to respond to our calls, but while making the war of first impor- tunce, as we must, do not let the local interests suffer. Continue to “Keep the Home Fires Burning” and in so doing the hsopital will be well looked aiter and we shall have an institution New Britain may be justly tors from of which SDAYLIGHT SAVING” State Urges Adoption of Council of Defense New Clock Flora | | Last | value $1.75 to | 29¢ COLORED STRIPED SHIRTINGS For the Month kind Sale 29c¢ yard| Value 45c.
