The Hartford Courant, | for instance, gave a lot of texts this morning in fts lengthy editorial which seemed to be written with fin. gers crossed, telling of the achieve- ments of the session of the ture beginning said editorial with the amazing statement that “It s difficult to recall a session of the Legisiature | which showed a greater capacity for | representing public. sentiment than | that which adjourned Wednesday." | 8o our New Birtain republicans must Jjoin with the state republicans to find | out what there is to rejolce over. And apropos of that Courant edi- torial it is interesting to note that at last that has men- tioned—just mentioned—the matter of the activitics about “time.” It lauds the Legislature's “insistence upon the uniform public display of standard time’ as one of the ‘“‘com- mendable features of the session.' And there the Courant leaves the matter. We have asked that twice, humbly on both occasions, come out and tell the world what it| thought of the bill making it an| offense to display a timepiece show- ing other than standard time. That| * newspaper has remained heedless of our earnest appeal. Today it comes nearer answering' the question than it has ever done since the appeal was made. 8o, by today's declaration, it| must be understood that the Courant commends the manner in which the | Legislature insisted upon public dis-| play of standard time. We appreciate the Courant's lvgul; acumen and ability to reason prop- erly to such an extent that we are able to see the blush upon its amplé countenance when it realizes that it has been foreed into this position by partisanship—this position of prais. ing one of the most rvdiculous laws | ever smiled over by sophisticated people. We feel for the Courant. | Legisla- | newspaper newspaper to FORGET IT?..PROBABLY! Well, it seems that after all our| worry about the distressing situation created by the Volstead law and the court's interpretation of it and the| Treasury Department's ruling upon it, is quite needless. A simple way of avoiding friction with other | nations has discovered, Just forget it—that is all that is neces- sary; let it ,tht Volstead law, remain | on the books let the court decision and the Treasury department's ruling remain the order of the these troublous decrees, | And the matter becomes even more | simple that the person who will have to do the “fors | getting” is President Harding.

The point becomes somewhat time- | ly with the eché of the words of a| speaker in this city ringing in our cars to the effect that proper grati- tude is not often expressed when a corporation does something good. The railroad certainly is a corpora- tion and the public utllities commis- sion, though not a corporation, fis sometimes accused of being in close touch with some of them. It is with pleasure, therefore, that we may ex- press our appreclation for this act which whisper {t—might well have been taken after the situation had been noted in the columns of this newspaper, fanary now construction Of course mission should hav able over into viston come has called to the -just GERMANY'’S OFFER. Germany has stood strictly to the demand that French troops must be | withdrawn from the Ruhr before | any settleraent of the reparations | matter can be made. France has in- | sisted that Germany's ‘“passive re- stence” must cease before she will listen to any offer. Thus the two na- | tions have been at loggerheads. Now comes Germany with an offer seems to contain a germ ol‘ reasonableness. It is so looked upon | in this country; England is inclined | to so regard it and Italy would pos- | sibly see it in that light. Even Bel- | glum perhaps would like to think ui over. Poincare, naturally, would prefer to have Germany formally hu- which { miliate herself before he would listen, | but he is none too sure of his posi- | tion in his own country. Certainly, | matters being in this pass, Fr(-nch{ troops will not come out of the; Ruhr—and it is well that it is so. On the matter of ceasing her pas-‘ It diately she would put her men back; to work to produce the wealth from which the yearly payments are to be made, thus showing an intention to start now in producing that wealth, | the opinion of the other nations con- | cerned would be so strong in favor of | accepting Germany's offer as a basis for discussion_that I'rance would ac- cept it for such purpose. France will | not withdraw from the Ruhr. It is up Germany to go to work, If this happens therc is hope that a settigment will at last be reached. to MERCHANTS AND OTHERS When a chap like Roger Babson says something it well to think | twice about it and see it his advice | affects us.
