FIGHTING DISLOYALTY The League of American Penwom- en, composed of many of the profes- sfonal writing women of the country, has started a campalgn against dis loyalty to the country, in printed or spoken word. It is sald that those who attempt to destroy American institu- tions and principles direct thelr activi- ties mainly to the women of the coun- try and the students in colleges, There is no question but that such a campaign, in which all women writ- ers, editors, publishers and those in like professions will be asked to par- ticipate, will do good—to those, es- pecially, who take part in the cam- paign. And in this statement no re- flection is cast especially upon women writers. Men who make their living by the pen are inclined, just as much in their search for new thoughts and new manner of expres- sion, to question old ideals of loyalty, of patriotism. It is the day of new thought. Original ideas, well and per- tinently expressed will catch the at- tention of most thoughtful people even though they disapprove ideas express- ed after the thought has been sifted and analyzed. If all profession- al pen women and men—all writers and publishers—were to think a littie more seriously of the trend of thelr pointed paragraphs and of the im- pression they would make upon minds less intellectual and less able to catch the subtleties of their humor, perhaps, as women, an atmosphere of dis! ty would be destroyed which has been created, not | through any intention of writers, per- haps, but because of their failure to ! realize that all people are not able to read between the lines and to catch the exact line they draw between a humorous reference to “patriotism' or “loyalty,” and downright ridicule of those qualities A writer loses his mecans of making ® Mring the moment he or she be. | memory | tak of writings. Yet “mother" go in hand with true loyalty and patriotism. He who ridicules them would”think nttle of ridiculing country.

LAFAYETTE-MARNE DAY By fitting coincidence this day is the anniversary of the birth of the great Frenchman, Lafayette, to whose General Pershing spoke standing at the foot of his statue on the arrival of the American forces in France to participate in the world | war, and the anniversary of the first battle of the Marne. The words of General Pershing recalled the debt we owed France, and sugested that in the arrival of our forces to fight by her side we were doing no more than the thing which gratitude and recollection dictated. If Lafayette had not lived, battle of the Marne out as it did, a different history of this country and of Europe might have been If Lafayette had not lived to give his help, and inspire the help of France for the American col- might be little talk here today of preserving our liberty against internal enemies; we might not know we might be struggling under handicaps of which we have little apreciation today. Had the battie of the Marne not been fought and won by the supporters of Jjustice and humanity, the whole world night now feel the heel of the op- pressor, cruel, inhuman. Today is a day when, remembering the man who aided so in our struggle for freedom, and remembering the cause which triumphed there at the Marne, full tribute should be given noble human qualities which aid the if the had not turned written. onies there what true liberty was; seekers of freedom, as represented by that man of France, and honor should be shown advocates of the cause for which brave men fought at the Marne. Another of the days which emphasize the splendor of high standards has come. Observance of it is right and proper. INJUNCTION DISCUSSION Immediately upon announcement of the reported terms of the injunction granted to the government in the rall- road strike matter, The Herald while approving the order which restrained strikers from interfering with men who wished to work and which tended to prevent interference with transportation, called attentlon to its | sweeping terms and expressed its be- lief that it would be modified on the argument September 11. Today comes news that there is strong feeling in Washington that such step should be d Attorney General Daugher- ty in; s that the government has no intention of abridging constitutional rights of free speech. If the government has no such in- tention the government, through At- torney General Daugherty, will not in- sist on the enforcement of the tem- porary injunction presumably drawn by him, according to the strict letter of the document. n, All the power pos- sible and necessary should be piuced‘ in his hands to prevent violence, to | prevent {nterference with men desir- | ing to exercise thelr right, tnaltenable, of working when and where they will, Let him ask no more than this in ad- dition to the power to prevent inter- ference with transportation, Let him go energetically about his business of | seeing that he uses this power; let‘ | him forget there is a ‘“gallery” to : listen to his speeches and let him not | seek to make permanent an order { which, now, he says he does not in- | tend to enforce as it might be en- | forced according to its strict terms, “WELCOME TO OUR CITY" New DBritain greets the ofilcors of the law from Meriden today with all | the rev formality due august petsonnges, May they baak in the sunshine which the | New Dritain police department has se | thoughtfully provided for them and, when the golden light has merged into twilight, the twilight to darkness and | the darkness become silvered by the rence, fervor and such light of the glorious moon which has been ordered on the job especlaliy for | the occasion, may tiey return to their | pretty full of good food and p for New Britain, determin« ed to look with eyes of 6larity and city human sympathy upon any untortnate chance to pass their way and fall into their olutehes—=ciuteiies made misconstruers of the law who may . little v inspired b honest attempt we have made to give them joy today, At thias writing it is impossible to know whether this hearty greeting, the outpouring of New Britain's cord- fal heart, should be téempered in the slightest—Dbecause we do not know the score of the baseball game at this stage, But New Britain is too big to be influenced by even such an import- for ou ant thing. Even though a “Babe Ruth" has just stepped to the plate and cleared the bases of alert officers, with a home run of record propor- tlons; even though we should be “snowed under"” by the efficient gen- tlemen of the law from abroad—or even though we should prove that New Britain policemen are showing that they can play ball as well as bawl out—under any circumstances— New Britain welcomes the Meridén of- ficers cordially and hopes that here they ‘may find something worthy of their commendation. Have a bully good time, gentlemen; we are for you! Enjoy the day which is the sort made for enjoyment, and may you find here no word but one of cordial greeting—that is what we are trying to give you. Facts and Fancies (BY ROBERT QUILLEN). Absinthe fonder. makes the heart grow The crops are the biggest ever, and that's cheering. But the mortgages are, also. A few people take thelr troubles to God, but most of them take their troubles to the President. The only good American word known to all of Europe is ‘“Help.” They haven't yet learned “Thank you." Every time the stork passes by without stopping, France feels another urge to advance on the Ruhr. In European hotels the guest must furnish his own soap. But he isn't re- quired to make his own suds. If the authors of the old-fashioned dime novels were allve, think how they would flourish as scenario writ- ers. When the Flood came, no doubt everybody stopped work on his raft to await the report of the experts. A straw vote is significant of course; but that kind of straw won't break the Prohibition camel's back. Now that mine guards are accus- tomed to it, they should enjoy being guides for amateur hunters this win- ter. Whenever Lloyd George has a gen- erous moment, he forgives Germany a little more of the debt she owes France. As we look over the situation, it occurs to us that the only man who has occasion to rejoice is James M. Cox. Fable: Once there was a wealthy city man who didn't feel {nsulted when a rural constable arrested him for speeding. The tie that binds isn’t blessed if it binds at the back of the collar when you are in a hurry, ““We must get at the bottom of this thing,"” remarked the mine operators, as they gave the public's purse the once-over. Lives of great men oft remind us ave can all be known as sages, if we find a way to get a little space on the front pages, As we read the '‘clever magazines, it occurs to us that brevity has sur- rendered its job as the soul of wit to depravity, Too many Americans think culture consists in pretending to enjoy foreign books full of wild theories and unmar- ried lovers, When a disappointed reader says there {s nothing in today's paper, he should remember that even the Mc- Cormick’'s must have a rest, . - 25 VYears Ago <oday (Taken from Herald of that date) The local Itallan societics wiil hold a grand oeelebration next Monday when there will be a parade with 600 in line.

Union Ranks New Haven, Sept, 6.—Women agaln were in the audience of the mass meeting of striking shopmen of the N. Y, N. H. and H. rallroad today and heard reports made on conditions on the system through Joseph Tone of the machinists' union and John C. Ready, chairman of the system fed- eration. The trend of these reports was that conditions were unchanged and the shopmen continue in “their waiting attitude.” Reports that the strike was about to be settled, preva- lent elsewhere had reached this city, and strikers who gathered outside the hall tried to get information. Inside the hall, strike leaders stated that they had had no confirmation of the reports and did not know where they originated. Most of the leaders said that so many reports were current that it was best if all were ignored in the belief that if anything tangible developed first hand Information would come to them. Mr. Ready himself said that the reports of an immediate settlement were not con- firmed by anything he had received in the way of information from the varfous other groups of striking shop- men, Spies In Union, During the mass meeting it {s un- derstood statements were made that information was being given to the New Haven railroad officlals of what went on in the unfon meetings. Sev- eral of those present are said to have declared that if anyone in the meeting was supplying the information the union should find out the guilty ones and expel them. 'After the meeting shopmen said that action taken at meetings soon became known and an effort was being made to find the “‘leaks.” Clergyman Speaks, Rev. A, J. Pennell of Grace M. E. church, addressed the strikers on the part women play in strikes. Mr. Ready will address a mass meeting at New London tonight, The New Haven road management in its statement today claimed for the first shift in the shops “a very sub- stantial increase of skilled workmen.” It also referrdd to the heavy travel over the system yesterday saying that seven more additional trains were needed than had been expected mak- ing 27 extra sections of regular trains in operation to move pa; ngers who waited until after Labor Day to make the return. ZIONIST NOTES Motion Pictures of Palestine To Be Shown Here The New Britain Zionist district has arranged for the exhibition of the latest motion pictures of Pales- tine. These pictures were made through the efforts of the Zionist or- ganization and special attention is paid to the new Jewish life in the Holy Land. They show very vividly the life in the Jewish colonies, the schools, the streets, the modern buildings. One reel shows the life of the “‘chaluzim,” that is, those refu- gees who have escaped from Europe and have come to Palestine. They come to their new home penniless and until they are able to support them- | selves they are supported by the Zionist organization. Due to lack of houses they live in tents. While most of them were students {n Poland, Austria and Russia, in Palestine they | work at hard manual labor, building | irrigation ditches and roads. The plctures are most interesting | and will be shown in the Nathan Hale school auditorium, Tremont street, on Thuraday evening, Sept. 7th, LEAGUE ELECTS OFFICERS Six Vice Presidents, Include Earl of Balfour, Chosen Today, | Repre- PARKING PLACE WON, A Personal Recommendation N selecting MARATHON MOTOR OLL to handle; we well knew the importance of choosing the best obtainable ‘ —for our customers are the kind who “come back.” After thorough investigation of the oils on’the market, we found “MARATHON” to be scientifically prepared to fit’ the lubrication needs of the motor.” The vropet grade for: each make of car or truck is listed in the Marathon Guide, and when so used, satisfactory results are guaranteed.
