Tt is to be noted, incldentally, tifat such wrong act be- comes especlally important at election time. Politics becomes a purifier of public morals. Addressing a. New Britain audience Thursday evening United States Sena- tor McLean, candidate for re-election, discoursed upon the propriety of a private secretary’s act in diselosing the private correspondence ofgthe man she worked for. The Herald has too. much respect for Senator McLean to believe that he wanted to discuss this matter. Someone must have had to work very hard to induce Senator McLean to talk about it, for the Senator is not a weak man. At any rate he was moved to defend the act of Thomas J. Spellacy's secretary In taking his letters, It is significant that he prefaced this de- fense by denouncing any such act if the correspondence “involves no moral turpitude.” But, he is quoted as saying “If it does involve the public interests, 1f it involves a third party, then the party who works for that-man and conceals the information is a pertico- pant with him * * * . If Mr. Spellacy, when he was employed by the govern- ment neglécted his duties and follow- ed another occupation and charged his expenses, to the government, I think the people are entitled to know it.” Splendid! If anyone does anything wrong the public is entitled to know it. Especially If a public servant does anthing wrong the public is entitled to know ‘it.* No person would dispute this_statement; it fairly breathes an atmosphere of high-mindedness; it presents a fine picture of Justice, frowning down upon anything that is tainted with wrong. But—is it possible to picture the dignified, sincere Senator McLean go- ing to his private secretary and, his intelligent eyes uplifted, his hand on his heart, speaking to his private sec- retary thus? “Oh thou honest private gecretary, keep thine eyes upon me. If thou seeist me doing anything, writing anything, saying anything that indl- cates I am neglecting my duties, please, oh please wWait until just be- fore election time, then steal my cor- respondence from me and give it to my political enemies. Thou, oh honest private secretary, art the great judge of my acts. You, above other people, would know if I do wrong. Go through my correspondence carefully and take all that will tend to prové thine alli- gations.” Candidate Spellacy may or may not have done things that were improper, The Herald does not know; no one is in a position to know. Moreover The Herald is not competent to judge and would not be inclined to judge. There is a short, sharp word or two in a well known book about judging. But The Herald does belleve that the pri- vate secretary of a man who has been placed in public office of importance is not the person to judge of his acts to the point which would excuse theft of letters. Moreover The Herald be- lieves that Senator McLean is the last man who would advocate placing pri- vate secretaries in the position of Judge of the actions of those they served, GOOD “MUD-SLINGING” It is quite orthodox to declare that “thls campaign as far as 1 am con- cerned, will be frée from mud-sling- ing.” all the gusto of one who wishes to be praised for fair-mindedness, is greeted with tremendous handclap- ping, usually by people who would “eat up" a bit of gossip about some candidate to the opposite party. But how about it? If the people can't find out just what sort of men have been running things withodt some mud-slinging why not let the mud fly? Certainly they would like to have a change if the people who have been running things have been taking the bread out of their babies’ mouths. Admitted that it is pretty degrading to take part in a campaign of throw- ing charges about broadcast, and no one enjoys the prospect unless that person enjoys sordid details. Fertun- ately for a reputable newspaper it is obliged, owing to a sense of responsi- bility it feels, to refrain from spread- ing rumors that are not backed up by The proneuncement, made with his NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1922, positive evidence, no matter how the clrcumstantial evidence may convinee the publishers of that newspaper of the truth of those rumors, The “au- thority of a dangerous weapon But times are changing, People are calling spades by thelr right names of “spades' It ls possible that the change will permeate the political at- mosphere and cfear it up, Perhaps, af- ter all, if the "mud” which is “slun; 4 g real, honest-to-goodness mud, the time. will come when slinging it may bring about a change for the better, unpleasant and undignified as the process may be, Certainly the people would prefer to have in office men whose hands are soiled from the mud they have slung, than men whoses faces are unrecognizable because of covers them-—mud print” 1s the mud which which belongs there, MAKING IDEALS CHEAP There are few people who wiN not grant the value of fine ideals, splendid standards. Jt used to be the custom to write of them, discourse upon them and literally cram them down the throats of the helpless people. The fine ideals, splendid standards have survived not because of this habit, but rather In spite of it. They have lived because of the inherent strength that is in them, ndt because of the per- sistence of their exponents. As the “moral” of a story used to be elaborated upon In the final chap- ters, so all “‘uplifting” addresses and thesels used to be éxtremely explicit on the fine points made, Today no “moral” is pointed out in a tale. If the reader cannot get the moral, it is lost. If the audience does not “get" the point of an address, the talk falls flat. Much is left to the imagination because those cherishing the , fine ideals, the spiéndid standards dre so jealous of them that they are un- willing to cheapen them by dressing them up in obvious expression. “He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.” We read and hear less of the fine things of life not because writers and thinkers deem them less worth em- phasizing, but rather because they fear to bring scorn upon those fine things by constant, tiresome remindér of them. The constantly recurring “weeks,” planned to emphasize cer- tain more or less worthy causes should not make people forget the real fund- amentals of Iffe which are not brought | to notice by any special propaganda. At this time when—and it is said with hegitancy because this may be some special week” for something momen- tarily-forgotten—no special “week” is being observed, it may not be amiss to suggest that we look about us and re- member those fine' ideals, ‘those splendid standards which make Jife so wonderful, but which are -some- times forgotten as they lie beneath the countjess sheets of propaganda pub- lished te bring into the foreground some special cause which, poesibly, some ‘gelfish interest wishes to have emphasized. FATIGUEITIS You busy, tired men whe come home from werk in office or elsewhere and “flop;” you perpetually fatigued paragons—no longer-do you have to be ashamed that you are tired out. You are not lazy; weariness is not a sign of old age. on the contrary fatigue is the badge of energy expend- ed foo freely in worthy deeds. On the other hanll you men who boast that you are “hogs for work;" you who say you never get tired out -——hide your faces in shame, The hon- orable badge is not pinned upon your breasts that never pant.- All this because the president-elect of the Illinols State Medidal College has declared that the “tired business man is suffering from accumulation of fatigue material or toxin,” a disease which affects the hardworking, suc- cessful business man. The sloven he declares, the laggard, the phlegmatie and the weak willed are rarely affect- ed. And so let the pillows be prepared to greet the brave sufferer frem this terrible malady that he may be com- fortable when he returns to his home. Let all people realize that He would not suffer so had he labored less. CALLS FOR AID The only way to meet fairly dutles and responsibilities is to know, in' ad- vance if possible, what these duties and responsibilities are. Every man and woman, in a position to do so, wants to help the unfortunate of the world. The calls for aid are so fre- quent that there has grown up the custom of setting aside certain “‘days” or certain “weeks” in which good causes are emphasized. Often these “weeks' are prolonged because the de- sired Welp has not been forthcoming in the time fixed. A week from today, Armistice day, the Red Cross Roll Call for new and renewed membership begins. On the same day begins a drive for $15,000 for the work of the Salvation Army in this city. This drive will continue a week. lLast year the Saivation Army drive was not a success. This year it was set for a certain date and post- poned because the campaign to se- cure subscriptions for the new hotel interfered. These are two of the calls upon our generosity that will come, “Generosity” is scarcely the word to use. Many feel that no generosity Is Involved in paying the one dollar and jeining the Red Cross—the great- est organization in the world in the fleld of aiding the suffering in time of unusual calamity, Its work has pro- gressed beyond these limits, but there Is a tendency now to limit that work to times of emergency for the Red Cross has all it can do to attend to these emergencies, It has come to be the feeling that to be a real American one must be a member of the great American Red Cross, Such is a proper, a fine feeling, Those who have had experience with the Salvation Army and with the derelicts it has reclaimed are sincere in their approval of it, It réaches peo- ple who would probably never be reached by any other means in just the way the Army touches them, These things are mentioned today merely to emphasize two of the calls that will be made soon, that a wise consideration of the just attitude to take may be had. GOOD FOR PLAINVILLE Congratulations are due Plainville over the prospect of the inereased prosperity that will come from the presence there of the unified Btandard Steel and Bearings plant. A thousand moré employes of that company, lv- ing ‘there, will “help some.” Congrat- ulations, too, to the company for hav- ing such a place as Plainville to locate in, The company must have been pretty well satisfied with the pretty town to have been induced to abandon Philadelphia for it. In all seriousness every such move of course, is réason for satisfaction in this part of the country, It is o man- ufacturing country and, despite its present high stand in the world, it will develop further. Movements such as the one just reported, while not of any tremendous significance indicate a _ THE OBSERVER - Makes Random Observations On the City At the risk of being considered old- fashioned, we are . going to plead gullty to lgnorance of what constl- tutes a “petting party,” This subject has been brought to the attention of thé public through the announcement that more than a hundred girls spoke to Dr, Charles E. Barker after his lecture here Wednesday and déclared thelr Intention to fight this so-called modern evil, “Pétting parties' are something new on us, We know what spooning s all 1ight, all right, because we held all the long and short distance records for spooning in our neighborhood when we were of spooning age. We even had an invitation to send our photograph to the Bunday supplement cliitor of the home town newspaper once, but we madéstly declined. Frankly, we are stumped by the term “petting parties.” Immediately upon hearing the term, we conjure up a picture of a sweetly-scented male indivilual, corréct as to attire, and with a bloom of youth on his cheeks and the fuzasof youth upon his north lip. He is sitting in the moonlight— on the steps of a school, preferably— holliing hands with the beauty of the class of Umpty-ump. It is the lunch- eon hour, when they serve a sliver of lady's finger and a spoonful of some- thing that someone says is ice cream. There is music playing—the orchestra fiddler is doing his best to make “Traumerel” sound like it is written. That's as far as the picture goes. If it was ordinary spooning, that would be another matter, but the light of our imagination sputters and flickers out when “petting party” is mention- Judging by the action of the girls and Its People return of the trolleys, “"All T ask is a falr chance," he says, . What do people do with their spare time while walting for a movie show to start? A Herald observer recent. ly wrote a story telling of the various forms ©f activity with which people amused themaelves. Those observa- tions were made In a crowded the- ater. Wondering how people kil timeé who go an hour early so as to be sure to get a meat, The Observer dropped. Into the Palace theater one night about 6;16 o'clock, when there was a feature show booked. He found nine people inside. Two were readhigt theater programs, one had a maga- zine, and six were reading New Brit- ain Heralds. We'll glve you one guess what the moral {s, o The defeat of Jack Britton, welter- welght champlon of the world, at the hands of a youthful antagonist, brought genuine sadness to the hegrts of New Britain boxing fans who have followed his wonderful career in the arena. Of all the men who depend on their muscle for mastery, Britton was the favorite In this city, where he formerly made his home and where he has many warm personal friends. It is pointed out that he “dled with his boots on,” shaking his opponent’s hand and congratulating him even before the rihg officials had formally announced that the greatest welter weight of all times had been forced to gtep aside and give his crown to anether. That one act represented Britton's character more completely, more truthfully, than anything else he has ever done in the ring. For years he had fought gamely, and since hold- ing the title had denied to no worthy continuance of the prosperity of this|in deciding to stamp out this king of | candldate for the title an opportunity section and, as such indication, brings | modern sport, it s something that|to try and get it.

Housekeeping is just a slow process of accumulating useless piéces of cut glass, “ One can't help wondering what Job would have done had he stepped on a lump of used gum. Mothet says the vacuum cleaner was suggested by the head of the old- tashioned. hired girl. Infant prodigies are a nuisance at times, but no one of them has yet written his memoirs. Somehow or other, a great author's stuff doesn't seem half so infallible af- ter you sée his portrait. Jack: An instrument used to raise a car. Also a means of lifting people into high society. Paris may dictate fashions, but it is no longer necessary to go to France for naughty novels. The order makfl'fis American ships dry will at least open up new fields of endeavor for the bootleggers. The chief objection to inalienable rights is the amount of fighting re- quired to keep them inalienable.

Correct this sentence: “I am un- worthy of you,"” said the suitor, “but a girl with your face can't reasonably hope to do better.” PROPERTY LOSS HEAVY, Dublin, Nov. 4,—No fewer than 612 claims for compensation for malicious damage to property in Dublin have béen listed for hearing in Dublin. The total amount of the claims exceeds £6,000,000, and most of them arose out of disturbances since June 28, wheén the bombardment of the Four Courts commenced. The hearings will begin in December, should be investigated by the Mothers’ Brigade, and perhaps it wouldn't hurt any to invite Pa along to wield the bigch, it such a thing iz necessary. Times and customs change, some- times, it seems, too rapidly. The dlz- sy pace dazes a person, The forerun- ner of the “petting party” was usually held in a well lighted parjor. Qver in the corner grandma was knitting a pair of wristlets for grandpa to wear when he went out to the woodlot with the pung to bring in logs.for the new barn which he intended to build as soon as he could spare time from his regular labors. On the table was e large glass dome underneath which wax flowers bloomed 1egardless of the season. A wood fire crackled in the stove and the cat purred en the rug near by. The principals were seated on a horsehalr sofa — no home was complete without horsehair sofa. They were at a respectable distance. Occagionally grandma peered -over her steel rimmed spectacles to see that they kept that way. The young man didn’t seem to knew what te do with his hands. He held them in his lap and then folded them for a change. He had red knuckles and big ears, and a few cuts on his cheek, evidence that he had had his weekly shave. A collar with rough cdges threatened to cut the eere out of his Adam’s apple, which kept bob- bing up and down like a thing pes- seased. The conversation centered on the soclable held at the church. They thought the parson was awful daring because he was seen to wink at the pretty widow who mecently meved to town and who was' in charge of the lemonade booth. At 9:30 the young man rose, blushed, gurgled something about it being late and time to go Hhome, paid his:respects to grandma, put his hat on hindside fore, and took his departure. At 9:307 Yep, that was considered the polite hour in the old days. Mod- ern standards of propriety have es- tablished any old hour before sunrise as the time for departure. The daugh- ter of the house ‘makes the decision. Ask the man who owns one—a daugh- ter, not a house. Now it is the “petting party.” Long strides have been made gince mother was a little girl. After all, perhaps it fsn’t as bad as it sounds. L Some schools boys and girls have other things to think about, however. In New Haven, for examplé, they ex- amine statements made by politiclans and woe be unto the candidaté for of- fiee who doesn't get his facts straight. The American history class of the New Haven High school read a politi- cal advertisement in the papers re- cently to the cffect that James Madi- son introduced the first protective tar- iff measure. So the class sald to ft- self, “Let's look into this. Maybe it isn't so.” After looking long and deep, they found that the first tarift bill was sponsbred by Alexander Ham- fiton. So that's that. The Board of . Education in the “Elm City” was recently asked tb con- duct an Investigation into a .charge that the teacher in a class in civics phowed pictures of candidate for of- flce on only one ticket, ignoring the candidate on the other ticket. For a while there was quite a stir and somé old codger on the hoard is sald to have remarked “Well, that's what you get for lettilg womenfolks git into politics.”” After the investigation was completed the teacher was clear- ed of any suspicion to discriminate against the complaining party as it was found that there wére .pictures of men on both sides. DR \ Peter Agostino, whe recently be- came the sole propriétor of the Arch street jitney line, claims that he i net getting a square deal. “Pete” ap- paréntly is suffering from the truth of the old adage, anent giving a dog a bad name, etc., and despite his efforts to glve rasidents along his route good gervice, is having trouble living down the bad reputation the jitneys have. With the sanction of the mayor and the transportation committee, he claims he purchased for a large sum of money, thé interests of his com- petitor, John J. Hall. He says that sincé that time he has put on new busses, énforced néw rules, and re- liglously maintains his advertised schedule. Everybody along Arch street, he says, is satisfied with the service, but people whe live in other séctions of the city and do not patronize the line are the ones who are clamering for & many battles, had run up a row of victories of which any man might he proud, but whén his hour struck he did not sulk, did not deny to the win- ner the laurels which he had won. There is something aboyt a man like Britton which. ralses ‘the boxing game in the estimation even of those who have moral scruples against the sport. He was always in the best of condition and he always fought game- ly and clean; he always “gave the customers full weight.” Britton always Hved a good life, didn’t like to talk about himself and was net given to boasting. He saved his money and now that Father Time has counted him out he will be able to live llke a white man should live. Britton will go down in ring history as the man who led a decent life and who stepped out without flinching when a better man came along. . s Unusual bits of litigation, and freak court rulings, are no less interesting to the legal mind than to that of the layman, and a decldedly peculiar case came to the attention of the Observer while visiting in a western city. The accident, from which the suit agalnst an autemobile insurance company had arisén, occurred when two aute- mobiles, one closely following the other, drove off a raised draw-bridge in a fog. Both machines were later pulled from the river bed, a mass,of junk. The insurance companies re- fused to pay damages, claiming that the accident policy did not cover such an emergency. It remained for the astute lawyer for the plaintift, how- ever, to bring in the argument that produced a settlement for his client. In their tumble off the, bridge, each car struck the stern of the ferry boat passing beneath. “Collision,” that was it! The plaintiff’s policy carried pro- tection against collision, but did not specify just what kind. ‘Therefore the lawyer obtained damages for “a collision of an automoblle and a steamboat.” This is regarded as one of the most freakish cases of its kind brought to public attention.

As a user of coal, taxpayer and cit- izen of New Britain I desire to relleve my feelings on the coal situation by alring some of my views. One of our local coal dealers wrote a long letter to your paper attempting to explain why the price had to be so high. How does he account for the fact that othér dealérs are selling lower not only in our neighbering cities but right here in New Britain? It is common gossip on the streéts and in the factorles that one of our local coal dealers left the meeting of the coal dealers with the fuel admin- {strator with a remark about not be- ing wanted there because he sold his coaf too cheap. Coal is so cheap and so plentiful, comparatively, in our neighboring cities that some of our citizens are buying their coal out: of town. and haying it placed in their cellar after a haul of severa! miles at a. price of $16.00 per ton for nut coal. If by the mere writing of a letter I could convingce the people of New Britain that they should place in my pecket innumerable sums of $3.00 and $4.00 each T would write at greater length and invent more plausible reason or excuses than did your coal dealing corréspondent of a few days ago. The only good reason that I can see for that lettereis the fact that they are getting $20.00 a ton for coal and want to keep on getting it. A 1t is interesting that in your Thurs- day night's paper in the _Plainville! news there is a news item that the price in Plainville is $17.00 and that there is plenty on hand. The same item calls attention to the fact that “While the mayor and the fuel ad- ministrator of the city of New Britain are wrangling over the price of cunll with the latter upholding those deal-| ers who are demanding $20.00 a ton for the commodity and the former appealing for a réduction in price, Plainville residents continue to fill their bins at the moderate figure of $17.00 a ton." I for one am sorry that our mayor was so courteous in stopping the newspaper controversy over the price of coal at theé request of the fuel ad- ministrator. It is a matter of great public interest and I waited his re- ply cagerly. Since he has taken this stand I consider it the duty of our fuel ad- ministrator to make the létter public 8o that we may all know every angle of the situation from men who have the facts and want to give them out honestly' and TYearlessly, and not be compelled to reply upon our local dealers for our information on the subject. Thanking you for your val- uable space, I remain, A COAIL BUYER.
