Roger Babson is inclined to agree with those who predict for this coun- try a period of inflation. By this he means that appear to be better than it has any right to be; that temporary stimuli will come, to be followed, after the period of infla- business quiet pre- business will tion is over, ceding a return to sound prosperity. Mr. Babson declares that the immi- gration law, keeping out much foreign labor, protects the workman. "It is practically a tariff on manual labor," he says. If this law is continued it will cause a famine of common labor n this country, bringing inflation in the wages of common labor aiding in general inflation. The tariff helps the manufacturer precisely the same way as the immigration law helps the laborer. It will the price of goods just as the immi- the of by law in increase gration law increases wages workers. Neither which consists of greater production only. The economist asserts that the sur- render by England and the other allfes to the Turks will help bring on inflation in this country. He “The backing of England defeat for the sound money interests of the will bring higher interest rates in this country. He sums the situation up thus: "As the immigration restrictions cause an inflation in wages, tariff inflation in prices, this Turkish episode inflation in interest rates.' This conclusion, however, does not destroy Mr. Bab- son’s belief that over the long period of years the tendency of wages, prices and interest rates will be downward It may be seen that the inflation, in Mr. Babson's opinion, will bring the “earmarks’ of prosperity only, and that the immigration law, and the tariff, to say nothing of the European situation, must be adjusted before the prosperity will which he confidently expects, will be based on sound economic principles. Of practical value, at the moment, is his agreement with many financial experts that for workers and manufacturers will pros- per. ‘When Mr. Babson says that busi- ness today is at the highest point it has been in over two years, according to the Babsonchart, the activity last week being but six per cent. below normal as compared with 19 per cent. a year ago, he means that busi- ness is six per cent. below the point where it should be taking into ac- count the natural growth of the country and the resultant natural demands. brings real wealth says down is world,” which and the an 50 may cause an which come, and a while at least WORK OF THE BLIND. The number of blind people in a city is greater than any realize except those who have had occasion to inves- tigate, and the number of residents in that city interested in the happiness and welfare of the blind, personally interested, is large. Broad- 1y speaking everyone is interested to learn of happier, more productive lives coming to those thus afflicted. When the state took up this matter of instruction of the blind, in their Homes, some months ago, The Herald called attention to the opportunities to be given. Now we are interested in the prospect of seeing the blind people of this city who were moved to take advantage of this chance have enjoyed the work and what they have done. Attention is called to the sale of articles such students under a state teacher have made, the sale to be held Thursday of this week at the Besse-Leland store. These students have learned to read with their fingers, to knit, crochet and to make baskets. For some of them undoubtedly a new world has been opened. The least the people who are not afflicted by blindness may do is to evince interest in the work of those less fortunate, and to encourage this new work of the state that not only increases the chance of happiness for a class of .people greater than is supposed, but also adds to the wealth of the state by adding to the productive ability of its citizens. intensely, contented and how sew, ‘WOMEN CITIZENS, The law which takes from a woman her American citizenship the moment she marries an alien is a relic of the NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1922, GREEK ARMY LEADER DETERMINED TO FIGHT TO KEEP THRACE FOR GREECE days when woman was considered in duty bound compelled to obey all the commands of the married 1 It Is offensive to the thought of today Amer- thought was no because she man Fifty ago, perhuaps, an ican girl might not anything of the fact that longer an “American girl" she had married some man who had been born in another country and had never become naturalized.

When it is remembered that the work done by the nurses and others interested in this organization does not cease with the various calls; when it is remembered that the dress- or summer, sand cases of cases and ing of a wound or other injury giving of temporary relief is only part of the work of these nurses and others, and that the good effects of the various conferences and instruc- tive visits are continuing and lasting, a fuller appreciation of the value of the Visiting Nurse Association may be gained. Should the organization cease to exist today the city would continue to be benefited because it had once been active here. But the organiza- tion accomplishes too much good to be allowed to go out of existence and is no hint that such a thing happen. Encouragement, finan- cial and moral, would be given, that ts work may be carried on inspired by enthusiasm and that the work is appreciated. there will a consciousness COLLEGE WORK. Most people, young and old, are interested the attitude of college authorities toward those who become students at such institutions. No matter how interested in athletics one may be, there is greater interest in the main work a person is expected to do at a school of higher education For this reason there may be satis- faction felt that the football coach of at least one of the great universities has taken a stand against continuing athletics who do not devote a proper amount of to their intellectual work. “Tad' Jones, coach at Yale, has dropped eleven promising candidates for the university football they in their studies, and he has been backed up in this stand by the college publi- cations which reflect opinion more accurately than any of the others. The Alumni Weekly and the News both are confident that Mr. Jones' position will be approved. There is another aspect to the mat- ter. A man playing on a university athletic team or representing the university in any other way owes a duty to his college to be an honest representative. Accentuating athletic prowess, or skill in debate, or musical ability to the exclusion of the main work of the college does not tend to make a man truly representative. Mr. Jones' attithde tends to make the institution which he serves more the sort of university all should be. in men in time team because were behind undergraduate nearly THE ACID TEST. A man and woman were joined in the *holy bonds of matrimony" the other day and hoth knicker- bockers during the ceremony. They started on an automobile trip across the continent shortly thereafter. This is news, not because a woman was seen wearing knickers but cause it rather unusual for a woman to wear knickers at her wed- ding. So is it for a man to do so, for that matter. Were a man to appear upon the streets wearing skirts for no reacon other than he pre- ferred to do 80, this would have been news indeed. If a man wore skirts to his wedding the affair would create some rather wild talk, Why, there- wore be- is fore, 18 not the news that a woman wore the costume heretofore consid- distinetly man's, to her wed- ding, as startling as would be the information that man had women's clothing to that solemn cere- mony? Here is the acid test. The wedding ceremony was ex- tremely important, of course, Quite possibly that ceremony was the most important event in the lives of either bride or groom. But they were plan- ning to start immediately on a long, cross country tour, The {dea of a man starting off on such a trip handi- capped by skirts, is ridiculous. They would be in his way. They would get solled when he fixed the car. They would make him de’odly uncom- fortable. But the wofffen's knickers, worn by her, would do none of these things. They would afford her added comfort. Bhe would be able to run faster should the couple be attacked by highwaymen and the tires of the car punctured, In short her garb was very sensible unless, of course, the trip was to be a social affalr, If the husband and wife were to travel in the natural way, to live ‘close to nature” and to rely upon themselves for the most part, the costume of the woman would aid rather than hamper her. Persons possessed of common sense feel that knickers for women have withstood the acid test, although there may be a question of taste in- volved in wearing them to one's wed- ding or wedding reception—either by the bride or the groom. Viewed in this light the man offended quite as much as the woman, if any offense there was. ered a worn Fact._s' and Fancies At that, it is better to be boiled than soft-soaped. hard- It is perhaps just as well for the world that the Sick Man of Europe is ailing.

Meanwhile Military Dicta- tors Threaten War on Re- actionaries Who Try to Make Capital Out of Loss of Thrace. Adrianople, Oct. 9.—(By Associat- ed Press)—General A. Leonardopou- 108, new Greek commander in eaStern Thrace, was greeted by the populace and soldlery as “the liberator of Ad- rianople” upon his arrival here yes- terday. The title “Iiberator’” arises from the fact that he was the first Greek to enter Adrianople after the Bulgarians and Turks were driven from the city in 1918. He has now returned in the midst of the extensive preparations being made to resist the Turkish re- occupation. Although Gen. Leonardopoulos to- day is one of the foremost military leaders in Greece he traveled from Athens in an ordinary railway coach. In spite of his effort to avold atten- tion he, however, found delegations awaiting him at virtually every sta- tion along the route across Thrace. Fight Looms Up At this moment it is evident. that the army has little intention of evac- uating Thrace without a struggle whatever the orders from Athens may be and there i{s no doubt that many of the officers are looking back for inspiration to the examples of Gab- riele d’Annunzio at IYijume and Gen. Zellgouski at Vilna. Events march swiftly in an atmosphere of turmoil such as exists throughout Greece to- day, and anything is possible, Immediately after Gen. Leonardo- poulos had passed through the cheer- ing columns of troops in the Karagatch to the new headquarters in the government palace he received the Associated Press correspondent, with whom he freely discussed the situation, Ready To Fight In réply to the question Thrace was golng to fight speaking in French: “We are prepared. asks nothing better than an oppor tunity. We shall not surrender Thrace. Anyone who saw the soldiers along the Rue Karagatch today know instinctively that my words reflect ab- solutely the spirit of the troops, Challenge To Turkey “We are one in an inflexible de- termination to keep intact the new Greece. No difference of opinion ex- ists on this question. The Turks may think we are beaten, but let them try to prove it on the s of Thrace. “Things are momentarily compli- cated and unsettied in Greece owing to the revolution, but the change of government has served only to stim- ulate the troops and to unite them, Morale Is Good “I have been particularly gratified to find the sturdy morale which exists among the tanned veterans who saw two years service in Asia Minor. There have been stories of war weari- ness among these troops, but, as I say, wait and see, “If the troops have as much con- fidence in me as I have in them, we shall win. We are determinecd to re- deem the recent reverse to the Greek army and to settle once for all the question of Turkish re-entry into Zurope."” whether he said, Has 45.000 Men The general evaded questions re- garding the strength of his available forces which reliable local estimates place at about 45,000 men. The troops are well fed, equipped and conditioned and coraprise all branches of the serv- ice. The evening before Gen. Leonardo- poulos’ arrival, a mass meeting, under the chairmanship of one of the town councillors, adopted resolutions urg- ing the population to remain in the city and assist the army in repelling the “invaders,"” Athens Stands Firm Athens, Oct. 9. — (By Associated Press)—Attempts by reactionaries to make capital out of the loss of Thrace will be met, if necessary by force, it is declared by Col. Gonatas, who is still the military distator of the new Greek government. Col. Gonatas announced before a meeting of the commercial associa- tion of Athens that the army was ready to take severe measures to pro- tect the national safety and assure permanency to the objects of the rev- olution “The revolution was achieved peace- fully,” he said, “but the army is ready to take grave decisions against those who seek to exploit the loss of Thrace by discrediting the revolution which came too late to save Thrace. “But is (revolution) came early enough to prevent a greater disaster. The pretentions of the enemy will not be limited by the line of the Maritza river.” The Greek members of the cham- ber of deputies for Thrace have sent a statement to the British press de- claring that if the British people be- lieve the re.entry of the Turks into Europe will assure peace, they are suffering from a lamentable illusion. War Is Certain The Thracians predict that before many months the British and French mandates for Palestine, Mesopotamia and Syria will be challenged, the Lgyptian question reopened and the Gallipoli campaign will have been fought over again. They declare that, in avolding armed conflict today the HBritish are merely postponing the in- evitable and that in the near future they will have to fight under infinitely worse conditions than at present. If, nevertheless, Greece 1{s to be stripped of her new territories, says the statement, she ought to be spared the crushing blow of being swamped with 1,300,000 refugees. The signa- tories demand that allied troops re- main permanently in Thrace to save the non-Turkish population from mas- sacre or deportation.

Party Digs Up Records of Christ’s Period Philadelphia, Oct. 9.—The nearest approach to unearthing contemporary records of Christ was announced yes- terday by Dr. George Byron Gordon, director of the museum of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. The"‘discov- ery was made by Dr. Clarence Stan- ley Fisher, director of excavations at Beth Shan, in Palestine, The discovery was the burial place of Antiochus, the first cousin of Herod the Great. Antlochus, in all prob- abllity, Dr, Gordon asserted, was one of the men charged by Herod with directing the slaughter of the chil- dren in Bethlehem, as narrated by Matthew, in a vain effort to kill the Christchild, who had been described by the Wise Men as the “King of the Jews."” “The interesting part is that the father,” Dr. Fisher wrote, “Phallion, was killed in the district during a battle with Pompey, and his son, An- tiochus, was supposed to have died here some time later. The discovery of his coffin in our cemetery proved this point beyond doubt. 8o far as I know, this is the first sarcophagus of the Herodian family that has been found.” Dr. Gordon also announced that Dr. Fisher has found, in deeper levels of occupation, the first known sar- cophagi of the Philistines. Readers of the Bible will recall that they de- The whole army feated King Saul on Mount Gilboa, which overshadows the ancient for- tress city, and, cutting off his head, hauled his body to the city walls.

The site {s said to have been occupied for a longer continuous period than any other place of human habitation. It was also the most = epct in the world, since it serves as the gateway between voupGwamia and Egypt and was necessary to the conquest of Palestine.

Larsen isn't one of those unobservant male crea- tures who can’t ever remember what his best girl wore the last time he saw her. Larsen saw some familiar clothes walking down Wabash avenue, and hurried forward to salute his flancee, Miss Marian Rossman. But there was a strange girl in- side the clothes, and Larsen followed them until they entered an equally strange apartment. Then he called a policeman and now Miss Emily Gib- son, 19 years old, will be arraigned in court tomorrow charged with stealing a $50 dress and a lot of pretty lingerie from Miss Rossman, Larsen said he hadn’t known any of his flancee's clothes were missing.

Williams had been standing in the street shooting at passing automobil- ists with a shotgun, according to the police. Frakes first attempted to dis- arm the former soldier, but was shot in the back. He then fired twice, with his riot gun, shooting Williams in the neck and killing him instantly.

Pirate sleuths who have been ram- paging through the bushes since spring agree that many ball tossers worthy of Clasd A attention, have preferred to “play on the side” while holding down industrial positions. “I have spent considerable time watching seml-professional league games this year, and I'm about con- vinced that a great many of these players have been making more money than most minor league stars,” said Tom McNamara, one of the Pittsburgh “Ivory Hunters.” “College men, trained in a special line of industrial work step from school into real jobs. A few days later the baseball coach gets on their tratl, and $200 or $300 a month is tacked onto their income for play- ing a couple of games a week. Pret- ty soft? Yes? “Last- season scouts noticed that conditions were changing, but they were much more noticeable this sum- mer. “The quality of baseball In these leagues has improved wonderfully. I saw semi-pro contests this year which were as well played as class A battles, and I saw individual plays in these games that would have done credit to any team in the Big Tent."” Pirate scouts have pointed out also that the scarcity of real prospects in the organized baseball field has caus- ed club owners to ask sky-high prices for any player attracting major league aitention, | “The moment a scout looks over a prospect his cash value increases 100 per cent,” said one of the diamond detectives. “If two scouts give him the once-over, the price goes up a few thousand. If three of us happen to visit that club—good night.” ONE IS KILLED Engineer of Passenger Train Dies In Collision in New Hampshire. Rollinford, N. H.,, Oct. 9.—S. A.
