ZONING ORDINANCE NFARS PASSAGE Zoning in New Britain is soon to go iInto effect, The Common Coun- ofl Will meet Septergber 16 with the Intention of finally passing the amended ordinance. There may be a slip between the eup and the lip, but in all the finish of the protracted discussions will take probahility place at that time and the law will go into effect other hitch it passage of the ordinance will 8hould there be an- final not s certaln that be long delay and been done.

The poor man may be perfectly willing to pay a tax on a filvver, but when it comes to taxing everything indoors from the family phonograph to the baby's toys, a howl of anger Is fully justified. The assessors had better wateh their step and not get too snoopy when on thelr rounds, In fact, they ought to be compelled to be blindfolded. It is noticeabls from the list of taxables that radio recelving sets are not specifically mentioned; per- haps they come under the designa- tlon of ‘“other musical {nstru- ments.” But whether they ought to be included under this heading I8 a matter of opinion. No court has whether statlec comes under the head of music. Tt is also learned from glimpsing over list that home brewing sets are not included, These pos- sibly may come under the heading of farming tools, private librarles or furniture, yet determined the PLAYING TRICKS AT WETHERSFIELD Agaln several prisoners escaped from Wethersfield prison, leaving numerous officials wondering how they got the steel drills they used to drill through solld steel ceilings ~—three-slxteenths of an inch thick —or how they got the cloth for im- provised ropes by which they es- caped from the roof to the ground; and probably the officlale are won- dering over other detalls of the re- markable occurrence. McDonnell, the lifer, one of those who escaped, had boasted when he entered prison that he would go without leave, Land, the other man | who fled, had succeeded in doing the | same trick on a prevlous occaslon, when he “in some way" secured a hack saw and used it to make fools of the guards.

When a cemetery s not used for generations and gets to be around 180 years old, the opportunity of be- ing entirely overlooked is consid- erable, unless the remains of llus- trious persons in it enforce contin. ued care-taking. Yet no cemetery should be left to “go Into decline” or disintegrate and be forgotten by hurrylng hu- manity, REGULATION IS NOT NATIONALIZATION John L. Lewls, president of the United Mine Workers, has taken John Hays Hammond, chairman of the U, 8. coal commission of 1923, to task for suggesting the tederal regulation and oversight of the coal claiming that it should be overlooked, in view of M. Hammond's statements, that the first intimation favoring nationaliza- tion of the mines since the anthra- cite coal strike started came from Mr. Hammond, and not from the miners. me- not It Mr. Lewis mistakes regulation for natlonalization, that {s his blunder. We ecan scarcely under- stand how a man of his Intelligence could make it. s The rallroads are being regulated by the government through the In- terstate Commerce Commission, but that does not mean the railroads are nationalized, If the 1.
