This sum, charged to the home following the construction of & sewer in State street, has been before the Common Council and the corporation counsel, and the verdict has been that legal obstacles stand in -the way of its abatement. Mayor Paonessa, however, cager to have the *“¢lty recognize the splendid work that " the Children’s Home stands for, wants the money to be rebated. A way to do eo doubtless can be found. An institution of the type of the Children's Home, doing a work that | must be done and doing it well, should not be embarrassed by the in- | fliction of such assessments, The easy way for the city to settle the account 18 to forget it.

The money in either instance will come from the same pockets—those of the taxpayers. But for purposes of keeping the books straight the come to the city through the school department, a the case until at present.

Secretary of Labor James J. Davis impresses us as quite as good a speaker, however. Secretary Davis has been & steady upholder of high ideals in citisenship for years and as an orator stands high. He can make a first class political address, too. The annual third ward outing has developed into a major political rally in Connecticut, annually at. tended by more political stalwarts than any other outdoor event of the kind in Nutmegia. The chief speak: er usually is one of national prominence, or at least, sectional prominence. In one respect, such political out- ings are not what they used to be. To those who prefer prohibition, | however, they have improved. And during a hot political campaign it should be easy to get aroused on ginger ale and pop. WALKER AND NIGHT CLUBS That was a mean dig that Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant U. 8 attorney in charge of prohi- hition enforcement, hurled at Mayor James J. Walker of New York. She said that the mayor had first hand information about night clubs; to which the Manhattan executive replied he had only been In a night club once in three years, Mrs. Willebrandt, eager to con. | tinue her onslaught against the night clubs to a successful conclusion in the courts, seems inclined to blame | the New York police for *“lack of co-operation.” The mayor is certain there has been plenty of co-opera- tion with prohibition by the police long before the federal government took a hand in the situation. This inevitably leads to the most prolific source of trouble in a clogging of the court calendars. One can easily understand that there are not cngaugh courts or enough judges to take care of all the prohibition cases i€ they were provided on the whole- sale plan, as Mrs. Willebrandt de- sires, The mayor hints that the po- lice have tried it, but clogged courts | and smart lawyers for the defense ! able to take advantage of every technicality possible, make of prohi- bition enforcement in a large city a much more difficult process than it appears on the surface. Showing a desire to co-operate with Mra Willebrandt, however, Mayor Walker has data on prohibition and “court injunctions interfering with police activity.” The latter should be an eye-opener to Mre. Willebrandt. And by the w hrandt trouble in getting * her night club cases through the courts? The numerous proprictors have been badly dented, of course, but one does not read of their cases getting very far through the courts. And even if they are successtully shoved through this maeclstrom, what of the 25,000 speakeasies that have not yet been tackled by the federal agents and most likely never will be? arrests, raids, isn't Mra, Wille- encountering A WATCH KING PASSES “The watch that made the dol- lar famous.” Who will forget these signs, myriads in number, which adorned—or desecratcd—the knobs adjacent to railroad tracks at a time when there were no laws or much public sentiment against signboards throughout the land. = In no part of the country was there a lack of admiration for the Ingersoll dollar watch, It garded as great a miracle in its way as the cheap flivver was looked upon later, But the trouble with the dollar watch was that the dollar went down in value and the timepiece could not very well keep pace. Wizardry in not enough to make up for the difference botween a dollar worth 100 cents when the Ingersoll started and the dolar worth little more than 50 cents a de- cade or s0 ago. “Something had to give,” as the saying koes; and the upshot of the varlous changes in ownership and management of the watch that the dollar watches and the signs that made it and the dollar famous disappeared, Ithough there are said to be a few 1eft_here and there, farmers being too much occupid was re- manufacture was works was rip them away, Robert H. Ingersoll was the spon- a great idea and exccuted it It wax not his fauit that the execution of the fdea was or of to perfection, 1o more lasting.

Pointing with pride to the R the . and the cra of stability and cconomy in the national government, he told fram publican achievements in stat his auditors exactly what they proferred to hear, After he was thronzh and sat down thunderons cheers made the congressman realize be had been a most successful key- What, it may be asked, can be called for all | . | many listeners in the face of the in- | in guch cases to | more successful than & political con- vention? The audience 13 bound to be receptive, casily warmed up to flights of oratory as well as facts plainly stated. We should say that under such clrcumstances it is easier to “score heavily,” as the spellbinders usually put it, than anywhere else. A certain amount of care must be exercised, however, as such speeches usually obtain a wide ecirculation through the press. It is more im- portant, in fact, to declaim with the public in view rather than merely | for the benefit of the gathering be- | fore the platform. Indeed, a political speaker at a state convention is bound to consider the effect of his words upon the voting public with | greater care than the effect in the | hall. Many & successtul speech from !the standpoint of the immediate audience hearing it has been a fail- ure in the huskings and byways, Congressman Merritt told his hear- ers nothing that they did not already know. Hence the only reason for mentioning the issues encompassed in his address was for the effect | elsewhere. This explains the pains he took, no doubt, to dally with the thrifty manner in which the Repub- licans have conducted the state “since Governor Holcomb's adminis- tration:” how the state is *‘practically out of debt;" how all public affairs in the state are 100 per cent per- fect. It was in order to influence some wavering voters on the outside | rather thun the stalwarts in front of {him that he referred to the “Tam- many Tiger” and the ‘*staggering load of taxation” in New York state. This was by way of comparing the lack of such a staggering load in Connecticut. To analyze the differing conditions between the two states | would have taken more time than the congressman had at his disposal. It came natural to the speaker to liken the efficient and economical record of the Coolidge years with the years of Republican rule in Con- necticut, and proving from this with- jout a dissenting voice by any of | those present that the Republican | party is the only organization cap- able of producing such a record. His attack on “Democratic tariff prin- | ciples” was expected; this barrage |is becoming common throughout | New England, where Senator Curtls | has been asetting the pace in tariff discussion. It means that the old re- |liable arguments are to be heard ! from once again despite the state- ments made by the Democratic plat- ! form and the acceptance speech of | Al Bmith, It is clear that the Re- publicans don’t intend to belleve the modified Democratic stand on the | 112!‘!{(. Whether tariff talk will ‘ulnl [terest achieved by the prohibition | |issue, however, is a question, | Congr. Merritts views on | prohibition coincide with those of | | many a Republican, in spite of the | surprise at the convention. He | | said he did not agree with Hoover | a8 to the 15th amendment, as favor- ed Its repeal. He agreed with Smith ;on some of his statements on.this | subject, but did not think Smith | could alter conditions. Hence in spite |of his personal attitude toward the | 15th amendment he favored Hoover. | This no doubt is a prevailing attitude among many Nutmeg Republican | leaders. The investigation promised | | by:Hoover goes as far as they care to travel at this time. sman SPRECKELS AND SMITH In the present weird campaign | | much importance is being attached | {10 how industrial chieftains lean. | Heretofore most of them leaned to- {ward the Republican party by | nature. Hence it is surprising to | | many citizens to discover that this is not entirely the case this year, With | John J.

The change of Spreckels from Republican to Democrat, of course, 'is entirely the prohibition fssue. Tt is idle for anybody to claim that this is not the p: mount issue and that the tarlff or farm relief is | more in the public eye. The situation in Pennsylvania is particularly Republican { leaders have | monopolized nearly all the in- dustrial capitalists 1 that in the Keystone state more industrial- ists have taken up the prohibition isne and are favoring modification along the Smithian lines than in any | other state, mean due to trying to who herctofore of It is sa | The campaign is unlike totally | ahe doesn't skin back hef dry South will have furnished & large part of the mandate. The Republi- cans, however, are upset about the prohibition issue only to a lesser degres. Thousands of these in the North have been favoring modifica- tion for nine years and now are confronted with the necessity, if they would remain loyal to their party, to vote for Hoover and his dry prin- ciples, CLIMBING THE LADDER When Donald Gaffney was born the Spanish-American war was just about to begin. He doesn't remem- ber a thing about it. At that time many a brother lawyer whom he now numbers among his friends was & veteran at the bar, In 1922 young Gaftney, son of our widely known probate judge, began practicing law. Today he is appointed to be assistant state's attorney. He is climbing one rung at a time, but he is climbing. The appointment, which care from the hand of State's Attorney Hugh Alcorn, will be gratifying to New Britain. Recognition of local talent always pleases.
