Perhaps His own mind that New "York, New Haven and Hartford i wiliond ac private property and pro- ‘tection should come from the owner It cannot be said that this line of reasoning would be incorrect. but what the writer objects to is the apathy of the mayor and other mem- bers of the city government who { would, if they could be stirred from | their slugzishnoss, holds conferences ' with officals of the railroad in an effort to prevent such unnccessary of life as we have seen during year just coming te a close. And in the event that the railroad did not choose to patrol its,right of way, the mayor should assume the initiative and instruct the chief of pokce to have the railroad tracks patrolied. The cost would be slight compared with the saving of life that would be effected. How absurd it is to in- stall gates at crossings and then al- low miles of open space to remain unguarded. This ostrich viewpoint of conditions cannot’ continue long. If regularly dclezated fublic officials fail to wake from their lethargy, it may be nccestary for prjvate citizens to take up the cudgels 'in behalf of the people and create a drive that will ttract the aftention of the smug and complacent executive. whose greatest ambition in life was to be Mayor of New Britain—just for once.

The situation as it appears to me needs immediate and drastic actton on the parg of milk consumers of New Brit- ain, to protect themselves and their | children. Tt requires first, money and then a persistent effort on the part of the milk consumers to use it in such a way as to enforce improvements. The milkk question affects every person in New Britain, irrespective of age. Children especially should be pro- tected against disease germs which might enter their bodies through milk consumption. Imm te attention should be given to the situation and a clean-up ordered even if the city finds it necessary to appropriate funds out
