(3 el POLITICIANS, TAXES AND THE COURANT. | The venerable, and hoary, Hartford Courant reminds us, in an answer to last night's reply to | an editorlal of Bunday, to the effect | that we shall see the effect Mr Christ's work in cutting the state tax a half milllon dollars when we get our next tax bill, It sinuates that demoeratic here may have some effect on the | final taxes as he is described as hav- fng been a factor In Increasing the Joeal tax rate. It states that indi- | cations are that we have not kept In close enough touch with our repre- sentative, Mr. Christ, We heard, in fact we must have read in the Courtant, that the state | tax was to be reduced; oh yes—but we stlll await our blll—and we beg to remind the Courant that Mayor Paonessa cannot bear all of the blame for a higher local tax rate any more than he may take all of the credit for a reduced one. The Com- mon Council has something to say| about these matters, and the Council | 18 republican by a substantial ma- Jority, even as was the Legislature. If we are not mistaken the board of finance also has a little something to say as it makes the recommendations to the Council and city meeting board. Providing we had procured some- thing which we deem of sufficlent benefit to the town to offset the ex- pense we shall not protest a higher local tax. For instance, no New | Britainite would have objected to paying his just share of the extra expense incurred by the state in se- curing a dormitory in which the stu- dents at the new State Normal school might sleep. As to our failure to keep in close touch with Mr. Christ—we admit we might have been closer, as close as the Courant was, for instance—if our aftiliations with the state republican machine, of which Mr. Christ is a part, were as strong as those of the Courant.

WATCH THE NORMAL. It has been remarked frequently in this newspaper that the time to take | note of any innovation or matter of {mportance is when the afair is fresh | in the minds of people, in order that, | when the thing is brought up again, there will be a distinct impression to | tice, or else a person trained in public‘ remember. New Britain wanted, this year, a new dormitory for the .\Tl:m-“ Normal School. It failed to get it| and there will be a lack of accom- | modations for those wishing to at-| tend the school. Those interested ¢n | seeing the cost of attendance lowered | tor each pupil, and little time wasted, that many of the students outside New Dritain This will not but resultant declare will live commute. pensive for them, cause delay time.

It is a far cry from Henry's peace ship idea to his latest of warlike means of law enforcement, and is typical of Henry's trend of illogical thought. A NEW HEALTH OFFICER The board of health now has a mat- ter before it of truly vital concern to every man, woman and child-—every child especially—in the city. That matter i the appointment of a new superintendent of health. So import- ant did it seem to the framers of our charter that explicit requirements are given in it as to the person eligible to appointment. Section 4, Chapter XXV of the charter says in part: “The board of health shall appoint a physician of at least two years' practice, or some suitable person who has been trained | in public health work and can supply proper credentials of such training, to be superintendent of health of said city.” ' Thus the new appointee must be ! either a physician of two years’ prac-; health work. No person, not trained in public health work, who has had less than two years' medical practige may be appointed. No person who has not had such two years' practice and who cannot furnish proper credentials showing training in pubilc health work, may be appointed. And “public health work" means just that—public | health work! Men and women struggle along under a poor admin- istration of the rcity's affairs. They will live through it and be able to make a change when the chance| comes. But men and women and children,may not be physically able to | “struggle along” under poor health | conditions. The slightest letting down | in attention to these matters starts | something that progresses rapidly from bad to worse and, when a cor- who may be able to [ i rection is made, some of those suffered physically may be beyond struggling any more. The ment of the new superintendent hould be made after caretul consid- | cration thorough of the qualifications of the applicants, appoint and study PUBLICLY DISPLAYED CLOCKS Immeadiately after the law was sign- ed making it an ofense to show any time other than standard upon “pub- | liely displayed clocks,” this newspaper ‘ that such “pub- undertook to advise licly displayed clocks™ included time- | pieces placed in stores or offices which are, in a sense, public places, ‘especial- | Iy for the henefit of that portion of the public which should enter such stores 1t is otherwisé if a clock | is primarily for the convenience of those privately employed.
