CHRIST Representative Says No Orders Come From Men “Higher Up” That members of the legislature are not receiving orders from “high- er up” regarding how they shall and shall not vote was testified to by Ernest W, Christ, representative from New Britain, at a meeting of the Berlin Men's Bible class at the com- munity house in Berlin last evening. Mr, Christ spoke on “Early Tm- s on the Beginner in the Leg- nd said he had heard, and y people are of the opinion, that members of the legislature are re- ceiving orders, He said he had an experience to contradict the suppo- sition. A certain measure to which Mr. Christ was opposed came up for a hearing before his committee. Many letters were received from peo- ple in the town concerned for and| against the bill, Among them were | two letters from the so called *old guard.,” In the letters they stated that they had also sent letters to men higher in authority asking them to straighten Mr, Christ out on that particular bill as they knew he was opposed to it. Some days afterward, one of the leaders in the legislature approached him, saying: ‘“Here's one of the let- ters I received, Ernest. Read it and tear it up.” That. episode shows how much the leaders are influencing the members as to their voting. Fanatics in Prohibition Ranks, The speaker also ‘described the carelessness with which Dbills are drawn ups re are several kinds of bills of this "loosely-drawn type which, if ‘passed, would be of no benefit ¢0 the state and might cause harm. y Somer.of these are bills drawn up on subjacts over which the particular persons intérested have gone crazy, he said. A few of the bills regarding prohibition are drawn up in all earn- estness, but those intercsted have be- come fanatics on the subject and therefore have included many drastic clauses which would not be beneficitil, he said. Another, Mr. Christ said, is the bill regarding some problem in a certain community, which would not be ac- ceptable as a state law as it would not affect the entire state. Like Old-Fashioned Blunderbuss Then there are others that aim at some particular thing, but are so loosely drawn that *like the old- fashioned blunderbuss they would kill everything in sight,” as the speaker characterized them. They are aimed at one thing, but would al- so include and possibly hurt many others, he declared. One bill requires dealers to stamp all eggs to show their degree -of freshness. This bill seemed an ex- cellent public measure when first brought up, but it has lately devel- oped that, as the bill would only af- fect eggs sold in this state and as many of the big wholesalers order and buy the eggs from other states it would not be effective. A bill is now in progress whereby cold storage eggs would be permitted to come into the state only in sealed packages. These eggs must be sold in the packages. The speaker said he was interested in the fate of men who made election and pre-election promises to the vot- ers, Several of these men agreed to do all they could to have service charges by public service corporations, such as gas companies, done away with, Many times the laws that men rant about when they are running for of- fice are perfectly all right when the people are not escited by some dema- gogue, Mr. Christ said. The people| jare stirred up by a’ man anxious to get an office. This is unfortunate, said the speaker, as there are many people who are not familiar with the laws of this country and who go “up in the air” at the slightest provoca- tion. The speaker said that there is much criticism regarding the scant courtesy given those appearing before commit- tees in the interest of bills. People realize that sometimes the same bill comes up year after year and if the members are veterans on the particular committee, they are so familiar with it that they dont’ want to hear any more of it, as there are 80 many bills to be discussed. The best way, said the speaker, if one is interested in a bill is to have two or three people who know the| facts speak briefly on the subject, the others interested being registered by | name. This would e time, | Out-Mancuvering the Opposition In eaking of the financial condi- tion of Connecticut, Mr. Christ said that there is not money enough to go around and probably some of the eople and towns will have to go with- out things th ion, . 1f the state's indebtedness wllowed to grow it will be one of the hammers the opposi- tion will use in the next clection, he said. People have pressed for ex- emptions and changes in the tax laws, but they will probably be disappoint- ed. Concluding, the speaker expressed curiosity as to how representatives can get the opinions of those they represent. The members always hear THERE 1S NO SUBSTI- | TUTE FOR FRESH MILK from the noisemakers and the radi- cals, but the ally worth while eiti- zens do not say much, They kick Brotherhood of the Mrst Lutheran church this evening.

The courses of students and the time tables of the undergraduate schools have undergone radical revision with a view of making easier the inter- change of students between Yale col- lege and the Sheffield Scientific school as well as of giving.a wider range of electives to the individual student, It is explained that through thé changes made Yale will offer a great- er freedom in the way of elective courses than any other scientific or technical school. It will be necessary for the student in Sheff to devote more shours to classroom and labor- atory work if he decides to specialize in such studies as literature, history or the social sciences. These hours, however, are balanced by the greater amount of work which the student in the latter must spend in outside DRINKING IN 1. §. Charges of Intoxication Among Pu- pils in Willimantic Are to Be Thoroughly Probed. Willimantic, March 15.—As the result of charges made by citizens that there was inefficiency at Wind- ham High school and that there had been drinking at school dances, the high school board announced last night that it would request the state board of education to send an in- spector to conduct an investigation. During the meeting of the board it was charged that there ‘'had been unfairness in conducting the recent mid-year examinations and that there was inefficlency in the teach. ing staff, It was also declared that a teacher had taken part in drinking at school dances as well as students, Egbert A, Chase, principal, admit. ted that occasionally boys at dances had .appeared under the influence of liquor, but denied that the case was common, He said he had requested the presence of two state police in plain clothes at a recent dance and added that they had found nothing [to complain of. He also denled the charge that any teacher had taken part in drinking, The board while declaring = itself satisfled with his statement decided to appeal to the state board. CHENEY FELLOWSHIP ANNOUNGED AT ALE $1,000 a Year to Be Given in Organic Chemistry New Haven, March 15.—Establish- ment of the Cheney fellowship in or- ganic chemistry at Yale university for which Cheney Bros, silk manufac- | turers are to give $1,000 a year for two years was announced today. The fellowship will be awarded to the graduate student who has shown special proficiency in chemistry and biochemlstry and demonstrated his ability to pursue research work lead- ing to the degree of doctor of phil- osophy. The reciplent of the fejlow- ship is to conduct research on gome undamental problem, the solutioh of rhich will advance the knowiedge of the cherutstry or silk, and substances and processes used in the silk indus- try, Yale has some interesting records of sllk culture in the colonies as President Ezra Stiles was himself ap enthusiastic silk grower from about 1758, and his diary contains a num- ber of references to the industry. He exported the raw silk to England and made the following observation re- garding silk dyeing at that time: Spelling Was Different “May 15, 17720 That white silk was died as much as any other color, viz smoking it in the flowers of sul- phur or brimstone ‘and tinging it with blueing. 2—that oyls either alone or mixt with soap or ley were so far from recovering or giving a gloss that nothing more effectually destroyed a gloss. = 3—the only and real way of giving a brightness or gloss was by stretching the skeins with great forbe until the gloss appeared; The glassj, and colour neverigiven atter weaving, January 20, 1191, Saw a palr of silk stockings wove at Norwich in a loom made there weighed four ounces white, Also a handkerchief made at' Northfd 2% oz |Both made of silk raised in N, Haves and Northtd, My 20, 1793, Rev.

'This Is the first clergyman's sllk gown Ised and made in'America.” U, 8, MILITARY SITUATION. Washington, March 15.~~The mill- tary situation in the United States in its relation to world peace was in- cluded among questions up for dis- cusslon at today's session of the con- ference of the women's International league for peace and freedom. The national defens act of 1920 was assailed in addresses prepared for the session by Miss Amy Woods, na- tional secretary of the league, and Mrs, Robert M, LaFollette, wife - of Senator LaFollette ot Wisconsin, Eggs are low.
