THE PUBLIC MARKET It looks as if the city will solved its market problem with sat- concerned the Schurberg near East Main have isfaction to all in ac- quiring the use of street. The councilmanic committee having agreed to the necessary de- tails with the owner, it now seems likely that the Council will be glad to confirm the deal with appro- priate action, thus ending a contro- versy that began to takevon serious proportions. The plan will satisfy citizens who opposed use of the school yard of the Central Junior high school as a public market. Although it was stated that there would be no dan- ger to the health of pupils through such use of the school yard, the public no doubt was slow at being convinced of this. By obtaining the Schurberg lot for the purpose this criticism is happily avoided. A NEW WAR TO SQUELCH THL BLOOD-THIRSTY Mosquito warfare in New Haven has reached a point where the city looks quite original in its energetic endeavors to avoid the stings of the universal pest this summer. Of all the cities in Connecticut, New Haven applying most desperate measures to eliminate the inroads of the the tiny driller. The new war to end has begun; indiscriminate blood-letting must stop.

OUR COLORFUL AGE | More color is being put into our drab tence every day—or is it weekly? or monthly? Anyway, there is more color. Our automobiles sporting around spangled with gorgeous hues unknown a few years ago. The funereal black, conspicuous in the early days of automobiling, has heen superseded to a considerabl colors. We are for the honey- ex are extent by gayer abandoning black moon hues. But this isn't all ny of the colored typewriters? Not Have you seen typewriters with partly red ribbons, but machines which are not the “conventional black” — machines which look as if they are going to a wedding party rather than to an of- fice. This illuminated condition so far is confined to the portable type- writers, but it will not be much of a jump to include the regular sized machines in the deluge of color. ‘Why not? The business world needs more color, surely. There is hope for an age which can see the advantage of more colors than black. We are having smartly colored locomotives on at least one rallroad, and the engines of many others have been sparkled up as if the art of keeping things spick and span had been “newly discovered.” The time may come, if this thing continues, when the fellow wearing a red necktie and a yellow vest will be “right in style.” COMPENSATION FOR CHILDREN ILLEGALLY AT WORK In aiming the rightcousness of its wrath upon states which “do noth- ing about minors who are injured in employment, often illegal,” the' New York Times cites Connecticut as one of its horrible examples. Here is how the Times winds up its edi- torial with a fling at Connecticut: “Since workmen’s compensa- tion laws were sustained sixteen years ago by the courts it has been assumed that children i Jured at work were adequatel paid, and that the cost of com- | bensation assured them safer conditions, as it does for adult workers. Unhappily, it has not worked out like that, The case of a boy of 15, working in a Connecticut hardware factory, shows what happens. Joe asked to take the belt off a pulley and hold it away from the shaft for a repair. This would not necessitate stopping the machinery. Tt was an ille- gal order. Joe's arms were in- Jured and amputated at the | shoulders. For ten yvears he re- ceived compensation of $6.50 a week, based on his salary of 313. Next November even these tiny payments cease, and at 2 | he faces the prospect of living rest of his on charity for the lite.” | Perhaps this will be a serious blow to the good folk in Connecticut | who have been under the impression that the workmen’s compensation law of the state was well-night per- fect. Wasn't it the Republican spell- binders In the last election who pointed it out as the “best in the Union,” etc., and that other states, | 1f they realized how fine a law Con- | necticut had, would lose no time in copying its admirable feature: It turns out that only three states, Wisconsin, New York and New Jer- | sey, have laws which really afford protection to children who work. The announcement is based upon figures tabulated by the National | Consumers’ League, which has been of children’s in- record compensation for industrial juries. The league has found that in | {only five states there are no work- | Emfln's compensation | sa Mississippl and North Carolina—but that in three of the remainder are children at work illegally recognized | A to compensation in case | laws: rkan- s, Florida, [ and South i only | ! as entit of accide The o of Pennsylvania is the in the Union, exampl of laxity In one accident two | were killed.

The Connecticut case is at least more than ten years old, and occur- a time when care was not al- xercised as to the giving of Ilegal orders to children being em- | ployed. It is to be hoped that the same thing could not happen in this enlightened day; yet, the law is as it is—and children illegally employ- ed are entirely out of luck if some- thing happens. The workmen's com- pensation law in such cases protects workmen, not children. red a Factsand Fancies Bill Tilden deserves at least ub. chaser for his comeback.

Socialism is a state of society based on public or collective owner- ship of the main Instruments of wealth and production with demo- cratic management of industries of a community for the benefit of its members. Communism is a social system in which there i{s community of goods; a theory of government and social order according to which property and the instruments of production are held as a common teust and the profits arising from all labor is devoted to the general good, in rare cases involving the abolition of the family. Bolshevism as the term is now used designates (1) the communist party now in supreme control of Soviet Russia; (2) a name for the Russian Socialist Fed~ eral Soviet Republic; (3) the doc- trine of a proposed international world-order to consist of a loose federation of national soviet repub- lics under the control of the work- ers of the world; (4) a name for any party or movement having the same general aims of conquest of absolute political power by armed revolution of the propertyless work- ing class. Q. Can an alien who is admitted to the United States as a student be- come an American citizen? A, An allen admitted as a stu- dent must maintain his student status during the term for which he is admitted. After finishing his studies, he is required to leave the country, and any unauthorized so- journ in the United States will make him liable to deportation. If, after the termination of his studies, he applies to the Commissioner General of Immigration to remain perma- nently in the United States, and per- mission is granted, he can apply for citizenship. Q. Hove the present king and | queen of England ever visited the | United States? A. 0. Q. What is the origin of thei name Peter? A. Tt is from the Greek, “petros” meaning “a stone'. i Q. 1Is there more than one stan-| dard block stem used by Unitea States railroads? A. There are three systems: (1) Manual Block, which is a system in which the signals are operated manually; (2) Controlled Manual Block, by which the signals are operated manually and so construct- ed as to require the co-operation of the signalman at both ends of the block to display a clear or caution signal; (3) Automatic Block, under which the signals are operated elec- trically or by other agency actuated difference be- “communism" | vear ending June fecting the use of a block. Q. What were the total expendi- tures of the American Red Cross for 19262 A. Total exxpenditures for the 30, 1926 were $11,892,869.35. Q. Was the year 1900 a year? A. No. According to the Greg- orian calendar, every hindredth year not divisible by four hundred is not a leap year. Q. How does an author de- termine the number of words in a manuscript? A. Find the average number of words in a line and the average number of lines to a page, and mul- tiply the product of these by the number of pages. This gives a falr- ly accurate estimate of the number of words in the manuscript. Q. How should an Easter lily be treated to make it bloom again? A. It depends largely on the manner in which it was treated at the time of forcing. If the bulbs were forced in a high temperature and are of the less rubbed type they are not worth planting in the open. The general treatment is to withhold moisture gradually in order to dry the bulbs, and then bed them out without disturbing the earth but simply removing the pots. Give them a covering of four or five inches. Some may grow while others will never be seen again. Q. Is a man who has served a term in prison eligible for a position in the U. 8. Civil Service? A. His case will be investigated by the Civil Service Commission and his conduct since his release from prison will be taken into considera- tion in deciding whether or not he will be permitted to take a civil service examination. There is no rule governing this matter. Q. What word is used to denote the appointment of relatives to office? A. “Nepotism” which is defined as favoritism extended towards nep- hews or other relatives; undue dis- tinction especially in governmental patronage in favor of relatives. The ‘word comes from “nopotal” which means of or pertaining to a nephew. Q. What is “Tap Day” at Yale University? A. The day on which invitations to join the various societies are issued. Q. What causes the difference in the levels of the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans at the Panama Canal? A. It is the effect of ocean cur- rents and winds. Q. What is the address of the Rev. 8.
