The councll passed the amendment by a close vote, and there Were charges by the opponents of the measure at the time that favoritism was being shown. The inference was that & firm hoped to erect a filling statlon at a prominent site which was ‘barred under the 200 feet fea- tures of the ordinance and that a majority of the council favored the proposed station more than it did the law. The mayor had been making re- marks that there were already too many filling stations in the city. Of course, the mayor has no right to attempt to dictate how many busi- ness institutions in any one line are permissible in the city, nor does he desire to do so. He was merely voic- ing an opinfon to bear against amending the city ordinance to make One thing is fairly certain—filling stations 100 feet from a church or school is as good' as no distance be- tween them. If it is necessary to regulate filling stations they should be regulated properly or not at all. Some persons, especially the oil com- panies are in favor of the latter plan, but the public generally is alert to protect its interests. The mayor's veto does not strike at any coneern desiring to enter the filling station business in this city; it /merely prevents any others from en- tering the business here under more favorable conditions than others. NEW HAVEN FINANCES Net operating income on the New Haven railroad increased during August, according to & report just made available, despite the fact that gross income for the mogth was less. The net operating income of the railroad for August was $1,720,083, which was about $100,000 more than for the same month last year. The operating income for the month was a million dollars less than for the same month last year. This must be regarded as quite gross an achievement, and rebounds credit ' to the present management from the standpoint of holding down expenses.

C. H. Moore was nominat- ed for collector. W. H. Scheuy for registrar, and August Johnson for member of the board of relief. The meeting was neither large nor par- ticularly enthusiastic.

Ties Reoesevelt Up N With Oil Scandal Bridgeport, Conn., Sept. 29.— Royal 8. Copeland, yesterday, at- tacked' the nomination of Theodore Roosevelt for governor of New York “a8 an outrage and effront to the in- telligence, patriotism and honesty of the people.” He referred to what he called Roosevelt'’s “questionable part inthe oil scandal” and declared him to have been the “Lackey and errand boy of Former Secretary of the Interior Fall and Harry Sin- clair.” = Joseph P. Tumulty, secretary of the late President Woodrow Wilson, condemned the “silence and indif- ference” of President Coolidge, *“who does not protest when a mot- ley group calling themselves the Ku Klux Klan set themselves up,as an imperial empire and deny the right to free worship in America,” and “shrouding themselves and their purposes, attempting by threats, coercion and murder to set up 3 sov- erelgnty all their own, cruel, brutal and ruthless.” Observations On The Weather ‘Washington, Bept. 29.—The weather bureau today issued the fol- lowing storm warning: *Advisory 10 a. m.: ings ordered Delaware | to Nantucket.

Editor New Britain Herald: I understand there s a plan on foot by religionists to take away all Sunday enjoyment (except that which the churches may have to offer) by urging laws upon the gov- ernment to close up everything which is not religious. The object these men. seem to have in view is to ask the help of the state to com- pel people to ceme to church, for if everything else is closed tight, there will be no other place to go.’ Personally I consider this entirely un-American and irreligious, for re- ligion by force is no religion. The Saviour Himself said: - “Whosoever will may come.” There are a great number of the very Test of Amer- ican citizens who are not church members, but help to support it for the dood it does. There are other equally good patriotic men and women who keep another day such as Jews and Adventists, Besides all this, this puritanical movement is absolutely unconstitutional, for we read in our Constitution: “Every man shall be¥ree and equal to wor- #hip God according to the dictates of his own conscience.” If a law abiding citizen should want to take !an automobile ride on Sunday or play golf or baseball, where it could not possibly interfere with those why make laws to forbid them, by refusing to sell them gasoline. If others wish to stay home to read the Sunday paper, why forbid the sale of it. Is this glorious country of ours to be under the rule of a few misguided zealots. You may drive a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink. You may also drive®people into a church on 'Sunday, but can you make them worship? I think that this movement of religious co- erclon would fill the churches with hypocrites. Surely every American belleves in absolute liberty, religious or otherwise, and even the .Bible gives us this freedom, saying “Cheose ye x X x whom ye will serve.”” W. R. UCHTMAN. LAST BIG OFFENSIVE Davis Today Starts Preparations for ~His Final Drive Against the Re- publican Party Regime. Locust Valley, N, Y. Sept. 20.— John W. Davis began preparations here today for the last big offensive in his campaign to-return the dem- ocratic party to the control of the federal administration, That offensive will cover three general fields, the east, the middle west and several 6f the border states. It will be inaugurated next Wednes- day in Maryland with addresses at Frederick and Baltimore and will be ended with a rally in New York city on the night of November 1. Returning to New York Thurs- day from Baitimore, Mr. Davis will speak that night at Madison Square Garden with Governor Alfred E. Smith. Then he will make a one- night stand in New Jersey and an- other in Riode Island before start- ing westward through yppér New York state. In the last month of the cam- paign, the democraotc presffiential candidate will deliver more than a .score of set addresses and will give an even greater number of rear platform apeeches as he travels through New York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois; Kentucky, Missouri and oth- er stafes. Dr.' Fosdick to Preach In New York on Sunday New York, Sept. 20.—Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick 1is expected to preach at the First Presbyterian church, Fifth avenue, next Sunday, according to an announcement made at that ¢hurch yesterday. No men- tion was made in the announcement whether Mr. Fosdick, who is a Bap- tist, will abide by the decision of the general assembly of the Presbyter- fan church which has ruled that Dr. Fosdick must accept the Preshy- terian afticles of faith if he is to continue to occupy & Presbyterian pulpit.

FRANK CRANE ~ It used to he a saying, out West where I come from: “Heaj is life and cold is death.” As far as my own experience goes I should be inclined to look fave orably upon this statement, Heat 1s expansion. On a warm summer day full of mn‘hlu. when the air is vibrant with heat, and you look out from under the shade of a tree, it seems easy to send yeur soul into the Infinite, for it seems as if you were a brother to all things. Cold drives you into the house. It makes you shut the windows and doors, to defend yourself againt the universe, It makes you hug the stove. Its influence upon one's ideas is similar. Gold is the friend of mar- rowness and littlepess and egotism and all things that contract one. Whereas brotherhood and fellowship, if all these exist, can hardly endure except in a state of warmth, My notion of nowhere to go is the North and South Poles, high moun- tain tops and cold and remote places. Their atmosphere is unfriendly. You cannot exist in them unless you take_your own little world with you. My vote is for “the good.old summer time.” To be sure, winter may have its pleasures, but they are all, in a measure, artificial and are not for a moment to be compared with the happiness that comes to us with the long, warm, sunny days. If there be any fault with summer it is that it is too favorable to life. The universe is too crowded for us and bugs and insects and all gorts of small deer contend with us for a place. BUt, to the hospitable soul this is no drawback. Himself feeling the pleasures of warmth, he Herald classified ade falrly leap to your assistance, {s willing to share them with other forms of life.
