That would wwre the neglectful physicians and do it quickly. The fact that Connecticut manu- facturers advocate a higher tariff got only a two-column lead. Had they advocated a reduction in tar- iffs the news would have been en- » | nese, the Arab has a tremendously four-column if titled to at blast, on the principle that worm bites a hen it is more impor- tant intelligence than if the hen cats the worm. least a a It it takes the New Haven rail- road as long to agrs ing the Black Rock bridge as it tock to make up its mind about improv- ing the railroad station the bridg: will be improved in A.

The facts seem to be conclusive that the schools need better service from the library. Few people—in- cluding ourselves—were aware of the amasing demands made wupon the library by the school popula- tion through the medium of school libraries. The figures published yes- terday, we bclieve, were eye-open- crs to citizens generally, and were the first time they saw light. In no direction does a city library function as effectively as in provid- ing reference books and literature to supplement school studies. Some way must be found to rectify the present difficulty. JUSTICE IN WATER DISPUTES If the water department turns off water for nonpayment of bills, and innocent tenants are thus made to | suffer inconvenience and danger, the health department will take a | hand under the sanitary code of Connecticut and order the water turned on again. This would lcave the water department forced to get its satisfaction in some other way, possibly through the courts or by obtaining & llen on the building for payment of the bill. The health department is correct. Water is too important a necessity to allow the convenience of tenants to be placed in jeopardy over a wa- ter bill. The water department dcals in a different substance than any other institution. Its product is vi- tal to the health of citizens. Ten- ants whose water is turned off and who have mo part in the dis need protection if and when water is turned off. By announcing that it will Invoke the sanitary code when- ever this happens the health d- partment merely voices its intentioa to perform a function that well gomes within its jurisdiction. going to work every day and for want of anything better to report suying he likes it, must be nonplused rest perlods 1ed who run for offics at the repeated nes by gentlemen npon improv- | But the company which | Mesars. Hoover and Smith both took a rest period. The average man be- lieved this was reasonable, seeing that a presidential candidate really must go through a trying ordeal during a campaign. Mr. Hoover later took a long and extended trip through Latin-Amer- ica, lolling on the decks of two cruisers, one of which rode the Pa- cific and the other the Atlantic. In South America he was forced to give up solitude for awhile while riding on steam cars and attending re- ceptions. Meanwhile Mr. 8mith played golf or somcthing in the South; at any rate, he took it easy down where the tranquil breezes blow. Finally Mr. Hoover got back to Washington; and Mr. Smith went to New York. Scarcely where they ‘there more than a few weeks when the urge for another extended rest seized both persons, and at about the same time. A defeated candi- date, it seems, needs just as much rest as the other; or vice versa. Now they are both down there where winter is summer, while the average man fighting the biting breezes where winter is sour and surly wishes he could run for some kind of first-rate office and take a few extended rests afterwards. In. Geed, if he is candid, he could stand the extended rests without even a campaign. But the only rest he gets is when somebody quits talking. HUMOR IN PALESTINE Picture the Arab. What does he know of fiction? The Koran is re- garded as fundamental truth, every word of it inspired. Like the Chi- high opinion of the printed word wherever it is found. We do not ! know offhand whether Arabs are unimaginative and phlegmatic, but rather lean to the belief that sheiks take everything as seriously as they o their love affairs. What was more ratural, therefore, that when some Arab newspaper reporters read in a Palestinian paper that King Solomon’s most important and favorite mummified wife was found Iying all resplendent in a tomb, that they smacked their lips over the rattling good story -thus dug out of the obscure weekly paper. All jour- nalists, whether they be . Arabs, Egyptians, Chinese or plain white, have one thing in common — they | hop upon a new sensation with the avidity of squirrels discovering new nuts to crack. For 12 hours, therefore, the in- quiring world was disposed to think that another King Tut story had gotten started. By that time Jerusa- lem was heard from and the fiction- al character of the story hared Sundry Arabian journalists got a new lesson in the meaning of fic- tion and in future probably will not mistake an imaginative concoction for the real thing. The rest of us go our way with a laugh. THE CHICAGO ROUNDI'P One gucss is as good as another, and ours is that the sensational | roundup of Chicago crooks and gunmen is the New York idea trans- planted to the Windy City. Police Commissioner Grover Whalen 1n New York began something that Chicago is glad to follow after be- ing confronted with the necessity of doing something after its citizen- ry suffered 102 robberies and four | murders in one weck. 1t is said that in New York it has been possible to hold only ten per cent of the alleged crooks thus raided out of speakeasies, and per- haps the same ratio may hold g0od in Chicago. But even ten per cent is something. dvery joint in this town is to be visited. Never mind injunctions. It you're barred, grab an ax and chop yout way in.” Such advice given to the police should be sufficient to instill the fear of the law into crookdom; and this is something of which they need plenty. There is one important differ- ence between the New York and the Chicago roundup that is worth no- ticing. In New York one of the chief objectives was to make an attempt to enforce prohibition. In Chicago no time is being lost in making any | such effort. The object is to catch | crooks, mot enforce prohibition. | That is a new contribution to the | climination of crime in these mod- ern days and it appears to us as | one worth while. After all, what is | gained in bothering about who sells | liquor when to catch criminals is of | more importance. | Chicago, infested with desperate characters, needs the heroic treat- ment being administered. Repeated doses | are necessary. GTON Conne JOHN B. CARRI Another leader of icut journalism pas his labors in the death of John B.

The finish of this ambitious | project has been & sad blow to that idealism which regards co-opera- tion among growers as the certain panacea for all the economical dif- ficulties of agriculture. In no state, not even in the West, was the co- operative movement put to & great- er test than in Connecticut. For to- bacco culture in the Connecticut val- ley is a big industry, and during the | heyday of the association’s prosperi- ty 90 per cent of the growers sold | their product through this co-opera- tive organization. The failure of the proved conclusively that no co-op- erative movement | supply and demand. The demand for cigars has decreased while the de- mand for cigarettes has increased, which resulted in. a depression of | the price level. It was natural, there- | fore, that tobacco growers in the valley concluded that they could ob- tain just as good prices without re- lying upon & co-operative associi- | tion which had no cffect upon the | prices. The principle holds good through- out all agriculture, despite the zeal- ous preachments originating in | Washington regarding the value of | co-operative associations. These us- soclations cannot make prices as- cend to a reasonable level if condi- tions over which they have no con- trol prevent the advancement. Despite the situation in the Con- necticut tobacco growing industry the state maintains the highest pro- | duction per acre except for one| other state, Pennsylvania. In Con- necticut production in 1927—the last year reported by the U. 8. De- partment of Commerce—was 1,224 pounds per acre; in Pennsylvania production was 1,360. In all the others, except Wisconsin where pro- duction was 1,070 pounds an acre, the figures were low. It is notable, however, that the record for Con- necticut was lower in 1927 than in any previous year since 1923. An analysis of the average price per pound pald producers by states leads to the conclusion that the Con- necticut, river growers have been faring comparatively well—except association can circumvent | that it costs them more to produce their crops than in some other states. The government statistics for | 1907 read as follows: Louisiapa .... Massachusetts Connecticut Florida .... 35 cents North Carolina .... .8§ cents And so on down the list to— ‘Wisconsin ... 19 cents Pennsylvania . +.v. 13 cents The Keystone state, heaviest pro- ducer per acre, is last in the list of price per pound. And Wisconsin, subject to similar climatic influences as Connecticut is far down in the list of price obtained. 1t is clear that, if the Connecticut growers were unable to prosper cooperatively despite other advan- tages of price and quality, the co-op- erative scheme simply was ineffi- cient. Perhaps too much was cxpect- ed. 45 conts 37 cents. 36 cents 25 Years Ago Today | | | A. J.
