They would suggest that it would be far casler to find living places now than it was a year Ago. This, of course, would be per- fectly true had the population of the elty remained the same as it was a| year ago. But the point is there is not any great amount of ease con-| nected with finding a ‘“rent.’” The new structures have evidently ab- sorbed the people and still a great many are looking for homes. The reason is obvious; New Britain Is growing steadily. Looking back through the few years of hard times and industrial de- pression, and comparing the situa- tion in various cities of the country with that of this one, it does not take the student long to reach the conclu- sion that New Britain has been a pretty good place to stick to. It was confidently predicted even in the darkest times, that those who lost faith in this city and moved away from it would be somewhat sorry for the change. New Britaln would “come back’ before many of the other citles. This has proven to be the case. It was one of the very first to feel the return of prosperity, and the fact that the new buildings which have been erected have housed more people without any noticeable lessen. ing of the demand for homes is an- other proof that economic conditions here are on more solid ground than in many other cities where the de- pression was felt more keenly. It is an indication, too, that there is still good reason for a continuation of the building here. before any the But would the I at this stage of game have President | to have recelved Mr other than a cordial quite likely that the same cordial welcome, the same “driving to the station” and the same chats would have been glven to and had with Mr, Roraback had he called. But it is quite possible that the latter would consider it heneath nis dignity as the great political power of this state to seek an audience with the President, and it is more than likely that he will not do so now since Mr, King has pald his respects, But it may be sald without ques- tion that the Presidential fingers will be upon the pulse of Connecticut from this time forth until election or, nomination time-—and much may happen here in that perlod. or his mana pon h LIVING COST TOO HIGH. The history of the rise and fall and rise aguin of the cost of living, as given by Roger Babson, is inter- esting, but the matter with which we are immediately concerned is how things are to be in the future—to what may we look forward? As he points out the increasing production is a trifie more than supplying the demand at present, but not enough to bring prices down immediately. Gen- eral business is slightly above normal, and it will probably continue so until, possibly 1924, but there is being stocked up a bit of surplus stock and, eventually, this surplus must be dis- posed of. With the number of cars available for transporting goods constantly in- creasing, the public demand will be met and stocks delivered more rap- idly, People, both consumers and re- tailers, will get their goods more promptly which, of course, means that there will be no ecarcity—the condition which causes higher prices. “Since the present market is being adequately supplied,” says Mr. Bab- son, “there ls little justification that increasing prices of commodities can continue long. The cost of living tundamentally s still too high and is destined during the next few years to recede to a lower level, * * ¢ The underlying structure is probably strong enough to justify moderate ad- vance in some lines and a high aver- age commodity price level for some months longer, but it is probable that prices by or before 1924 will turn for a reaction.” As a return to normal prices will redound to the advantage of all con- cerned, and as that return to normal o a, s PURE MILK. Attention is again called to the plan to present ordinances to the common council aimed to safeguard our milk supply. Too often matters demand- ing immediate attention are brought up and laid over in order that mem- bers of the council “may have a chance to look Into the situation.” Where life may be at stake imme- dlate action should be taken, once the | situation has been emphasized. Mem- bers of the common council will have had ample time, by the time the| council meets, to have made all the| hinges much on transportation aiffi- investigation necessary to lnlormj culties being solved, it Is upon this themselves on this subject, and they | phase of the economic conditions that | ghould come to the next session pre-| the eyes ot the student of economics pared to take a stand for any ordi-| are turned. nances that will assure the people of | the city protection in this regard. Again it is to be emphasized that milk is not necessarily impure merely because it has not been pasteurized, or because it comes from herds which have not been examined. It may be| quite pure. The point is, however, that we do not know whether it is or not unless it has been pasteurized or unless the herds from which it comes have to be free from tubercular affection. | The New Britain Medical ocla- tion has gone on record as favoring the passage of an ordinance which would require all raw milk sold i} 5 yndjeate that it was “on the level” the city to come tuberculin | —it would seem’ the raising of false tested cows and all other milk to be | pouaq to imagine that Willard's stiow: | pasteurized.

Ed mund Walsh, head of the Papal Rus- slan rellef mission, was permitted to visit Archbishop Zepliak In prison yesterday. In the presence of guards and mem- hers of the state and political police the archbishop, who was brought downstairs from his cell to the office of the Butirka prison, said he was being well treated, although falling in health as a result of prison life. “He looked badly, although any man unshaven for 10 days would per- haps look the same," sald Tather Walsh. Archbishop Zepliak, who stlll wears his clerical robes, is not in solltary confinement, Father Walsh said, but Is kept in a small cell with another priest named Zelinsky, who is await- ing trial. Previously, the archbishop had been allowed only a half hour of exercise each day when all the prisoners were turned out of thelir cells and allowed to walk in a tiny courtyard; but Father Walsh was able to have this period extended to one hour, He was algo permitted to give the archbishop food, books, paper and pencils, all of which were closely inspected by the authorities. Although past 60 years, Archbishop Zepliak is making use of his time in learning two new lan- guages—English and Itallan. It took Father Walsh one month to obtain permission to see the prisoner, but he now expects to visit him every fort- night. The other Catholle priests serving sentence are in very comfort- able quarters in a sort of house of correction outside Moscow, This Institution is located In a sum- mer colony where the prisoners are working in various trades. Some have taken up cobbling, others teaching while one is the assistant of a noted chemist who is also a pris- oner, Father Walsh's visit was at the re- Guest of the Vatican, AGREEMENT REACHED Peking Tells of Plans Whereby Prisoners of Chinese Are To Be Released.

ADVISES HARD WORK Section of Woman's Peace German Organization Suggests Solution for Reconstrnction Problem. Washington, May 14.-—The German women's international league for peace and freedom has is- sued a plea to the German people to take the matter of reconstruction in northern France in their own _hands and “go out with hammer @nd saws and begin the work.” The text of the plea was made public here today as transmitted to the American sec- tlon of the league, The French ruins have not been re- built the appeal said, because the “French and German industrialists quarrel about the profits of the work" and the “militarists on both sides use the subject as a pretext for stirring up the people.” “German people,”” the message read, “pull yourselves together. In the hour of extremity, form your- selves Into workable units and go out with hammer and saws and begin the work of reconstruction. You will be welcome over there.
