OVERDUE ASSESSMENTS In these days of the urge to get everything done in the shortest and best possible manner we hear much about business methods in govern- ment. Convineing cvidence that something of the sort is nceded in New Britain comes with the an- nouncment hy the public works that $100,000 in over- due assessments have been located on the books, and that steps will be taken to collect the money. No one blames the folk against whom these bills stand. No doubt they stood ready to pay their just Dills, but statements were not re ity. Bills were regu- the electric department of ceived from the larly received from light company, the telephone com- pany, the gas company and all the other merheants and business houses with whom such citizens did business on credit. Bill were promptly re- ceived at the epd of every month from every’ business housc—except from the city of New Britain. Naturally, if the city was not suf- ficiently interested to send out bills | for money due the citizens were justified In thinking the city was not entitled to payment until it did so. Mayor Paonessa, learning of the laxity in city accounts, was aroused. It does not take much to arouse the mayor sometimes, and this time there was no doubt about it. What he wanted to know was the futility of practicing ecombmy here and there it such good practices were to be nullified by failure to collect money due the city. It was like trying to fill & leaky barrek What the city needs is a com- plete auditing of all its books in all departments at regular intervals. This would be putting business methods in government. Every busi- ness house of importance considers an audit, preferably by expert ac- countants from the outside, as an essential at intervals. The city of New Britain is a huge corporation, handling millions of dollars annual- 1y, and necds to be as thoroughly accurate in handling its business as the Corpora- tion, or Landers, Frary & Clark. 1t is not a matter of questioning the honesty or ability of the regular bookkeepers. In private these accept the visits of outside auditors only in city business manifestly proper adan audit is American Hardware business as a matter of course; it is that such a husiness method Why do not frowned upon this should be the case we know. We do know, howcver, if the city s to be run like a busi stitution it needs to methods, and that if politicians dis. like to have that s in- adopt business done they prefer slipshod methods. THE TOCSIN Real estate promulgators in V bereft of WATERBURY hoosters and prestige srhur: entirely result of optimism as the discovering that another leading industry in the city, instead of constructing plant in Waterbury, « in the Middle Wost printed in these columns the day to the eifect that ir W an addition to its cted to do 8o Opservations other torbury continues at pace New T take it in the fis resent: snailinie. ain is certain to over opulation race and he. come the fifth city the W lican to expend considerahle enic in Conneeticut, has caused erbury Itepib- in making an editorial suriey of field, it the clusion {hat fhe arriting inevitable con- only way N Britain to tiarch over the wodic the loyal Waterhirig Earnestly thumbing the records of belief, the [1ocal achievement, the Waterbury paper finds that some plants in Waterbury have built additions in Waterbury rather than in the West. Four of these are mentloned with appropriate gusto. In the face of this evidence we have no particular comment to make except that it is our convictien that New Britain is growing much faster than Waterbury and that it will be only a question of time when ~Waterbury and New { Britain will change places in the | state's city standing. The Waterbury Republican, we "note, editorialy glorified the ad- vance of its industries the day fol- lowing the election. The editorial stated that three factory additions have been made recently and two more are under way. Evidently the | population of Waterbury were well |aware of this and hence put very little stock in the campaign talk of {the Republican calamity howlers in | that region, of which the Republican | scems to have been a leader. These | additions to existing plants apparent- ly did not impress the people that the world would come to an end if | they voted for Al Smith; indeed, it [ may be one of the reasons why the | Democrats rolled up a plurality of 15,529 in the city. HOOVER AND THE LEAGUE s of the League of Nations, tches from Géneva, are quot- «d as greeting the election of Hoover with particular satisfaction, feeling certain that as President he will be warmly disposed toward the League, will co-operate with it fulsomely, | and perhups bring the United States | step nearer to membership in the ieva tribunal.

Borah, arch enemy | f the League. Neither talked about the League during the campaign; ncither did Hoover. But how is it tha tor so many Luropean commenta- on the American election, and officials of the League itself, immedi- ately stressed their conviction that the clection of Hoover in the long |run would mean something tangible | with respect to European co-opera- |tion by this government ? They must have reasons for their belief. | 1t may Ee that we are heading to- yard the League little by little, and |that the election of Hoover will |accclerate the motion. HOW OTTINGER HURT SMITH Tammany Hall seems at a loss to | explain why Smith didn’t do better in the borough of Manhattan. The |tip as we give it is this: Thousands of voting machines were installed in ! Manhattan during the past year and |were used for the first time on Tuesday. Several hundred thousand | citizens wanted to vote for Ottinger lon racial grounds, and not having | the hang of spjjtting their tickets by machinery did the customary thing land voted the Republican ticket | straight. Roosevelt got elected while Smith Jost because Roosevelt was stronger thgn his where he is well liked. | e TOBACCO IN CONNE | 10 moil thei fice Bulletin 163 | ment of Comumerce, telling all about the stocks of leaf tobacco on hand in various parts of the country.

There has been entirely too much of this going on, and the remarks one sometimes hears along the main streets are dis- gusting. The young men who con- gregate i bunches at particular places, and who delight in making audible remarks about nearly every young woman who passes, have long needed the most efficient attention of the police. New Britain's womanhood must be protected. Let there be a jail term every time some smart aleck grows too bold. FOLLOWING CONNECTICUT In matters of legislation Massa- chusetts likes to be regarded as a | 1eader, but in one thing at least it 18 | tollowing Connecticut. A referendum | which would direct the Legislature Ito pass a Sunday sports bill was de- cisively favored by the voters Tues- day. This law, when passed by the Legislature, will permit Sunday base- ! ball between the hours of 2 and 6 | o'clock in all cities and towns favor- ing it under local option provisions— which approximate the law in Con- necticut. As in Connccticut, racing and boxing are not included. The effort to legalize Sunday achusetts previgusly met defeat in the Legislature and by referendum.

The total num- her of men necessary to guard the |tmperial right of way during the | trip entailed 75,000 men. Thus the imperial potentate of Nippon wus | able to travel jn perfect safety. It is perhaps necdless to compare such exceeding care against an at- |tack upon the Japanese emperor |with the comparatively manner in which American presi- dents travel about the country. There are seerct service men about the President, to be sure, and safeguaras No railroad would ever be forgotten or forgiven if it permitted a train on which the President was traveling to | figure in an avoidable wreck.

Yours respectfully, H. W. BRIER Per. . M. B. Manhattan Did Religion Defcat Gov., Al Smith? About the only alibi the demo- crats are willing to offer for Gov. Smith's defeat is, ‘religion beat him.” Will these democrats, especially the Catholic voters, remember that the Catholic vote is outnumbered in :he popular vote of this country, 5 o 1. The democratic nominee was given about 15 million votes to the republicans 20 million votes. According to these figures Gov. Smith was only beat at the ratio of 1 1-4 to 1 (one and one-quarter to one), whereas the Catholic vote is outhumbered 5 to 1. Surely this shows thet others ‘than Catholics voted for Gov. Smith regardless of his or their faith. Most all of us admit that in dif- ferent scctiona there was religious prejudice on both sides. Some Pro- testants wouldn't vote for Gov. 8mith, and some Catholics wouldn't vote for Mr. Hoover. But this was a minor and not the leading issue as the popular vote proves. Instead of ridiculing voters of other faiths, because their party was ihem eredit for being brosd:minded nd helping their party register such fine popular vote. Ot course there are some who ould say “religion beat him,” if he lonly lost by 100 votes.
