WEST MAIN STREET PAVEMENT NOT PERFECT After only a few months of wear the West Main street paving job, done on each side of the car tracks by the city late last year, is already showing signs of wear, One should hasten to add that the por- tion paved by the Connecticut company between the tracks Is in every respect sastactory; it s of concrate and indicates the company has had a plenitude of experience in putting down pavements that stand up under modern wear. The city's portion, hetween the car tracks and the curbs, however, is of a differep® material and gives the impression it will not last long with- out the necessity of repalrs. At some places the top dressing already | appears worn through. Much comment 18 being heard re- gardng the appearance of this paving so soon after being put down. The wheels of the constant stream of automobiles using the pavement have already impressed a sort of | rut a few feet alongside the car tracks; some of the top dressing is already disappearing. The impression seems to be that the top dressing has been defective or im- | properly put down, not thick eitough, or perhaps the foundation is sagging. It this pavement had been put down by a contractor there would | have been howls about it before this. The fact that the city itselt put down the pavement should not ward off criticism. It is entirely likely that the city can put down as good a pavement as any contractor; but if extreme care was not taken to put down the | best and most serviceable sort of paving on West Main street a mis take evidently was made. No street in the city receives such heavy traf- fic. 'To meet the conditions only the finest kind of work would avail In this instance the concrete portion put down by the car company in as excellent condition as when it was constructed—except at point alongside a city sewer intake where the city tore up the pave- ment after it was down to tinker with the intake—while the city's| portion of the pavement cannot be sald to be giving evidence of a long lite. The chiet complaint seems to he that some of the top dressing on t1 city’s pavement seems to stick tc the wheels of the passing chariots, with the result that there are re lar depressions along the route, How bad these will after con- tinued use remains to be seen, but it s logical to assume that if the pavement is how it happens to he after a few months' use it will he general is one become vastly worse after a year's traffic upon it. Perhaps the city will learn by ex- perfence, improving its technic as repeated pavements are laid down. Perhaps the West Main street pave- ment Is not really as bad as it looks although that would be hard for the layman to Any cisms are being volced @ haps is usele “explanatic cral belie believe, Justified, is t} should not gi after the work PRESDENT'S NOTE TO PORLIGN POWERS Tt is i t that | about trip unofticlally, of course, but we rec ognize its efficiency, what it is ac- complishing in Europe. The Washington ‘arms conference took placs in Washington a few years ago, at a time when our iso- lationist attitude from Geneva was much more marked. Many honest Republicans who were led to oppose the League at that time thought it would have a short life, President Harding, sensing the apparent ma- fority attitude, Invited the plenipo- tentiarles to Washington Instead of suggesting Geneva, and thereby ob- tained a good meed of personal glory, President Coolldge also at first thought Washington would be a fit place for a second conference; then, when it became evident Geneva was becoming Increasingly active as a center of international discussion, he esitated, finally concluding Geneva would be just the place for his sec- ond conterence, Now forth goes the call. The object of the conference, of course, 1s to maintain the 5-5-8 ra- tio, curbing the possibilities of cer- ialn foreizn nations taking advan- age of certain limitations in the carlier agreement to outbulld the United States. It s important that | the real facts should be thoroughly understood. We are able to out- build any other nation, by reason ot our wealth and resources, and we know It; so do the others, But while we are obeying the 5-5-3 lim- itations mome of the others are breaking, or threatening to-break, the spirit of the pact through the construction of largs numbers of smaller vessels not included in the treaty, Tt is evidently the plan of the President to stop this leak; the large vessels are limited, the small- | er ones are not. And if the forelgn nations who | are eager to enter into an arma- ment race with the small naval units can’t agree at Geneva—then ! Uncle Sam in self-protection will | lead from the procession.

Perhaps this comes heading of strate; BOY SCOUT A | This week saw the 17th anniver- | sary of the Boy Scouts organiza- tion. During that time it has veloped into an organization with a large national membership; its good work widely recognized. The slogan of the organization in New Britain fs “Training manhood | to serve boyhood.” Every effort ap- parently is mads to carry out this!| laudable purpose. Through it young- | sters are made to realize that the | older folks are vitally interested in | their welfare.

It was just recently that the New Yorlk district attorney publicly stat- | ed the Jaw was entirely Inadequate | to stop the so-called indecent per- from the standpoint of | No change hl‘l | formances gaining convictions, the law has been made since that time; but suddenly the play-jury system is discarded and arrests are made. Now It i3 to be seen whether there can be important convictions, or whether they can be made to stick in the higher courts, The play- jurles found no fault with some of those plays now procecded against; | the more formal court jurfes will be composed of the same cross-sec- tion of the community. The out- lock is for a big temporary hulla- baloo to appease the wrath of re- formerz who may be entirely justi- fied and sincere and withal may be | right in their contention for a clean- er stage; but the district attorney is following a method that he him- selt has declared could be productive of no permanent results, “The Captive” is one of the plays proceeded against. Having seen it we know what we are talking about when we say it appeals only to intellectual analysts of bizarre emo- tions. It can be safe to say that/ most of those who have been strug- gling to see it have not understood | the subleties of the subject. It the | young—who can't get a thing out of it—are demoralized then the youth- ful girl ushers in the theater, who lave scen it every night since its | cpening, must be in a terrible frame of mind. They give no such evidence. New York has been cleaning up night clubs for three months, and still the cleaning up 13 being found necessary with the end apparently | nowhere in sight. Arrests and fines | merely serve as so much advertis- ing. The performances thus “clean- ed” never turn out to be “flops.” The producers can well afford to| pay the small price for the big| amount of publicity they obtain in this manner. Putrid performances may be an abomination; but it i3 the public which makes them profitable. When the public tires of smut the situa- tion cures itselt—as has happened | in the past.
