ADMIT THE PAMILIES Tt is to be hoped that an amend- ment to the present immigration law is made to permit admission to this country of the wives and families of residents of this regardless of whether or not the quota from 'l\rh-l filled, This city is country, country has been peculiarly fitted to speak on this mat- ter, realizing the important part peo- ple from other countries have played and are playing in the prosperity of New Britain, It is almost too obvious to comment upon the justice of allow- ing men who have produced wealth here in the form of finished manu- factured articles to have their families with them when they able to bring them here. The efficiency, the happiness and the inspiration of those workers would be increased many- fold, to say nothing of the appeal that is seen in the human aspect of the matter, Objectors to such change will sug- gest that the admission of “famili of residents in this country, born on other shores, might admit more im- migrants to compete with the Ameri- can workmen, for there would be sons, soon to become workers or even now workers, included among those admitted under such amendment. Despite this truth, the justice of ad- is too clear to make Moreover this are mitting them such objection sound. newspaper has confidence enough in the right-thinking of the American workingman to believe that he would favor, individually if not collectively, such a human amendment. And many of those who would oppose such amendment would do so in the mi taken idea that they would be cater- ing to the votes of the American working man. They don’t know him and they do not appreciate his sense of justice. CIVILIZATION Our love of the mysterious, spectacular, is intrigued by the of splendor and vastness of the wealth exposed to view with the opening of the tombs of the King Tut-Ankh- Amen who ruled in Egypt 3,400 years ago. It is this wealth, this splendor, that appeals most deeply to the average person who reads of the dis: covery. Comparatively few will care whether new knowledge may be gain- | ed as to the ancestry of the King, the history of those days. The glitter of the beaten gold of tHE dome of the tomb, studded gem will blind most of our eyes and at- tract our thoughts. As one report has it “roused by the romance tion long dead, the richness of which was emphasized, ete.” The phrase “the richness of \\'l)l(‘h civilization™ carries with it an unconscious irony that is reflected in a contemplation of the appeals that were inscribed on the walls of the tombs to the dead King's gods. How “rich” civilization which permitted such wealth to buried taken from the Awvorld for- ever? What would one think of the civilization of today if custom allowed the giving back to the carth which it was taken wealth ¥ taken years, decades, even centuri with precious people are of a civi was a be from ch had perhaps, to accumulate?

I, and who will live next week in New Britain, today are the unfortunate sufferers of a triple calamity and Lave become converts’to the jinx be- lief. Messrs, Peck, elder and younger, have secured employment at the Landers, Frary & Clark plant and ast week planned to move here. They engaged a Providence truckman to move their household goods. The truckman, after due consideration, refused the job because of the bad condition of the roads. They engaged another truckman, whose truck is said to have broken down on its way to get the furniture so that had it been loaded there would have been a serious wreck. The , erstwhile movers telephoned to A, P. Marsh Saturday and asked him to send two trucks to transport the furniture, the plan being to load up on Sunday and drive all night, getting to this city early this morn- ing. Mr. Marsh received a long dis- tance telephone call from one of his! men, shortly after they had arrived in Providence, teiling him that the Peck residence in Providence had been destroyed by fire and the graat- er part of the furniture destroyed or seriously damaged. It is understood there was no insurance and the loss, which includes a piano, will run into several thousand dollars. { The Peck families salvaged furniture was left and still intend move to this city.
