IRELAND BECOMES DRASTIC The “public safety bill” in Tre- land, which is being passed by the Dail Eireah, is an illustration ot the fruits of violence. The saying that “violence begets violence” closely applies to an emotional situ- ation brought about by the murder of Kevin O'Higgis president of the state. The bill is & coercive measure in tended to,bear down hard on per- sons who are presumed to be dis- loyal to the Free State, and of ne- ity will include those who hav: to the ces e indulged in political opposition the point of refusing to take oath of allegiance, especially mem- hers of ament and candidates therefor. The electoral sar amendment to bill provides that all [ dates must give a pledge that they the oath of allegiance. such candi- will take There have heen opposition bers in the Dail who have to do so, and before the murder of O'Higgins they were privileged to maintain th titude in a spirit of tolerance. The oath includ allegiance to the King of England. Eamon De Valera, leader of the Ropublican Fianna Fail party, is alarmed; so are his followers, who are in a minority and have been unable to stem the tide of pa mentacy action being pushed through the Dail by President Co; (8rave, The cowardly miscreants who brought about the death of O'Hig- gins, instead of aiding their cause, helped to set the stage for the re- “ strietive laws. mem- refused wide rlia- STAYT IN AIR Alrplanz records do not last long | of The and in these days ambitious and adroit birdmen E in piloting a Junkers plane In the record of Co nelius zard Johann Risticz 2 hours and 23 minutes in- the air for dicates that Germans are well equipped to ventur: trangatlan- tic a flight.

It former Mayor Quigley, or any other citizen, has Information that the council ought to have, it seems folly for the council to wave it aside through the adoption of a rule that nobody can have the floor. Of course, Quigley can have his statement “neatly typewritten” and duplicates mailed to all the council members. He knows however, what would happen. The ex-mayor is [ entitled to choose his own method of contact; and perhaps he will say more than he ever would write. The councilmanic powers-that-be, however, do not fear the council be- ing turned into a debating society. | What they fear is the accompanying | publicity. There is always the pos- sibility that some citizen having the floor may projcct uncomfortable | facts, which might get wide cur-| | rency through the press and make |1t harder for the council to proceed | as the leaders would like. And there | | may be a few uncontrolled members | who might adi pointed remarks, which the wicked reporters would gobble up. But what of it? What does it matter? The more Quigley Is “sot on" in | this manner the more the public 1s | likely to think he has something | worth knowing. His ideas may be pertectly punk, but the public won't | get this impression from the fact he | was dented the privilege of the floor. And by the way, it was Mayor | Weld who recently said the city gov- | ernment would like to learn from constituents their ideas on public policies, The mayor's thought was to have citizens tell councilmen what they were thinking about. For a citizen to buttonhole a councilman and give him an earful is & wtail way of doing semething | that Quigley merely wishes to do on the wholesale plan, The best plan is to let Quigley have his say on the floor. There need be no debate or further less sundry councilmen and alder- | men insist upon it. There can be littla doubt that the public would like to have Quigley get the floor.

This week, folks, what do you say it we make our trip to Ham- monasset, the state bathing beach? Well, you needn’t be nasty ‘about it—we're going, anyway, and if you want to come along just follow these directions: Leave New Britain via South Main street and the Beach Bump road into Kefsingten, turning left through holes in road and railrcad underpass to Bérlin, then right, and take first left down hill. 3 Danger—another bad hill just ahead, but you should have seen it in the days of buggles and no con- crete roads. Now it is just & place to speed. East Berlin—avold cemetery and soldiers'’ monument in the world’s smallest park, bearing right along the main (and every other) street. The take sharp left over narrow bridge and next right into Middletown—This town was named because it was formerly be- licved te be the exact middle of ‘the state, and though this was wrong the city is still the center of the fn- sane jokes of Connecticut. Turn right on Main street, keeping on right side of manholes and the po- lice, to foot of street; then go left and right a few times until you lose count. If you have done this correctly you are on a high hill, it not you are in the river and must drop out of the game. Detour—road torn up. Go back six paces to Middletown and try again, going out southward to Durham—This is really the town name, no bull, Straight on to Rockland.—The name sounds mountainous, but the place is ac- tually a swamp. North Madison. Don't get dis- couraged. We're almost there. Can't you smell the salt air of the sound? Just a mile or two more and you | Telegram-Gazette, chairma will bk inhaling the delightful odor of Connecticuts sewerage. Madison—Turn left towardClin- ton. You are now on the post road and are fair game for motorcycle cops. Turn right to Hammonasset Beach. - Park be- tween ridges, hitting as few other cars as your purse limits you to. Then repair to beach pavilion. Look at three-fold line of prospective bathers waiting for lockers, remem- ber that the beach rules require. the bathing jersey to be worn outside the trunks and that your jersey isn't that kind, realize that you can’t wait till dark and sneak in then, and give it up as a bad job. Still, the day cannat be allowed to pass without something to show for the trip. Walk out pavilion and roll over four or five times in the pro- fuscly growing beds of poison ivy, and then you will have no trouble convincing your friends that you actually went to Hammbdnasset.
