But on noting the myriads of damage suits incident to the careless use of automobiles we have quite changed our mind. And so the big fire in Constanti- nople was due to an explosion in a bootleg distillery. That in itself would not be remarkable; but what sounds particularly Turkish is the report that the water company Wwait- ed four hours after the fire started before turning on the hydrants.

That is what we would like to know before waxing enthusiastic about State Senator Christ's plan. Perhaps they might be placed under the | high pressure overspreads the Rocky ‘we can work up enthusiasm anyway; but we would be quicker and more definite about it if the guarantee went with the scheme. Manufacturers hereabouts for years have been trying to induce the state highway department to make a modern road out of the Cathole shortcut to Meriden. The arguments in favor of it are good; even the highway commissioner is said to favor the plan. It has been “author- 12ed,” in fact. But what does all that amount to if the money isn’t handy to pay for it? The Corbin avenue plan is every- thing that is mentioned in its favor. It really is a short cut from the West End to Kensington, including the Berlin railroad station—al- though nine out of ten drivers do not seem to be aware of it. They have a tendency to drive along the best paved route and that leads right| into the blinker district of New Brit- ain. If, as Scnator Christ says, Cor- bin avenue were paved properly it would induce myriads of autoists to | forego the trip to New Britain's downtown section when that really is not their terminus. We are glad to extend help to the senator if he needs it, in spite of the “hard boiled” attitude of sundry officials. If the state takes over the Corbin avenue road or it is made into a state aid tet capital road there be no delay in making the de- | > the | 1 improvement, Otherwis vill lack practical purpose.

The leat tobacco tariff seems to have benefited nobody in particular, but the growers believe a still higher tariff might help them. | CHANGING THE SYSTEM OF STATE'S ATTORNEYS ‘Where is all the “popular demand” | that state's attorneys remain ap- | pointees of the judges of the Superior court? If the state's attorneys are I placed under the attorney general. how would their independence and | integrity be menaced? Will the jour- nals who oppose the suggestion of the governor claim that the attorney | general is lacking in independence | |and integrity? Because a newspaper editor says |the present system is “popular” | doesn't mean a thing, considering | that none of them, to our knowl- | cdge, has made a referendum ! about it. Our guess is as good as the | guess of any other editor, and it is that the present system s not popu- | l1ar. We have no way of knowing | which guess is correct, and readily | admit that much. | The Waterbury. American says |that the governor's suggestion, if | carried out, would make political | | appointees of the state's attorneys. | But, so the journal adds, “if it did | | not eventually lead to that extreme, |it might nevertheless curtail the | | power and usefulness of the state attorneys.” We cannét imagine haw it would | | curtail their usefulness, but there is little doubt that it would curtail |their power. In our opinion, the state’s attorneys have too much | | power, exercise it in a fashion too | {much reminiscent of monarchy, and [the best interests of the state de- {mand that they be made more in | the nature of public servants. | ; If placing the state's attorneys un- der the attorney general would re- | sult in making them political ap- pointees then the system of appoint- ing police court judges by the Legislature likewise is a political system. Yet one hears no complaint. The superior court judges them- selves are appointed by the governor. \ Does that make them political ap- | pointees? Maybe it does and maybe | it doesn't; there is a good opportuni- | ty for argument on either side. Then | {the superior court judges arc given | the right to name the state's at- | torneys for the counties, which in its fundamental essence should be a county prerogative. But in Connecti- | cut the counties for | |merely amount to convenient | boundaries. | The governor's sugestion docs not | the most part | does not go far enough. But it holds |that in the Interest of cconomy, effi- | clency and uniformity of procedure | | control of the attorney general. The | }plnn 18 not far-fetched and is bound to materialize sooner or later. Under | the present system the state's at- | |torneys are beholden to nobody. If | |they were an improvement in pro- | | cedure might be noted, rather than | otherwise. i | The fact is, it comes back to a wet ;and dry argument. The drys think | {that the judges will appoint bone | {dry state's attorneys and that the | | prohibition law will be better enforc- | ed under the present system. We feel | |like getting indignant whenever an ilmporl:m! matter such as jurispru- | ! dence is weighed with the prohibi- tion law always in mind. As a matter | lof fact, so far as the dry law's en- | | forcement is concerned, it makes no ldifiervnce either way THE DEMOCRATIC DEFfCIT If by now only $100,000 has been sent in by Democrats in response to former Governor Alfred E. Smith's appeal, by radio to wipe out the deficit of $1,500,000 it is clcar that the appeal will go down in political | history as a failure. Double or treble | the $100,00 and the appeal will be no | better. It seems difficult to warm up i the people to send money after a lost cause. Most of the deficit most likely will have to be made up just prior to the next political campaign, with the | result no doubt that the Democrats will be handicapped for funds for the campaign of 1932. During the progress campaign it was of the last commonly stated the Democrats had plenty of moncy. | It turns out much of their ways would be that they borrowed funds, hoping that found to eradicate | E had any deficit that might arise. that the Democrats spurred the Republi i dences money s to expend additional sums also, so that the relative difference between the finances of the two parties did not change greatly. The difference today is that the Republicans still posse a better set of ledgers than the Democrats. | The Democrats during the last | !/ | campaign had more money than ever before, and also found more ways | to spend it. Chairman Raskob be- | | lieved in big busincss methods to rur: | | the campaign, aud was as enthusias- | hard to analyze statistics, especially | when the word 129.54 inches, and | Atlantic City tic as if he were selling & new line of automobiles. The big deficit will serve as a warning in future cam- paigns. A statistician announced the other day that it cost 30 cents a vote to bring it out during the last cam- paign. This is too high. PROSPERITY AND THE LOWLY ‘Where once the average individual thought in dimes he now thinks in dollars; the time when corporations will think in billions, instead of mil- lions as at present, is coming within the next decade. But before we make the wrong impression, let us hasten to add that the foregoing is merely | quoting from the ebullient writings | of gentlemen who are prone to be | [super-optimistic. Personally, we {don't believe in these generalities. | Fairly good eyes convinee us that the !day is still far distant when every- one is to be a millionaire. We hear so much about prosperity | that we are inclined to go off half | cocked in connection with the marve- lous wealth of the good old U. 8. A. | 1t is only when we look up the sta- tistics that the conclusion persists Utopia has not yet been provided in this most prosperous of nations. For instance, Secretary of Labor Davis | informed an inquiring editor of a Welsh newspaper the other day that 86 per cent of the people in the United States are still relatively poor. In Wales, it appears, everyone thinks of an American as a million- | aire, and the secretary's letter prob- | ably caused quite a sensation. Being “relatively poor” must mean | not being relatively rich. One can be | operating an automobile and still be | relatively poor, we suppoge. It is “relative” is uled.‘ is “worth” $10,000 can be said to be relatively poverty- ' Andrew | | The man who stricken Mellon. In this country the wealthy corpor- ations, figures connection with which daily are spread over the financial pages of the metropolitan papers, make much more of an im- pression upon the public mind—es- pecially the European mind—than the situation of the average factory worker, miner, farm laborer, and other wage workers. These get very little attention; yet they are most compared with in of the population. These are the “relative poor;” but how relative?
