Dinning it into our ears that the city must have an airport eventually will get results, say the airport boosters. Meanwhile City Hall wonders where the money is coming from. That is the unfortu- nate impasse—desire versus cost. The longer the city waits the more it will lag behind. Or perhaps we are too conservative to move for- ward with the aviators. Or perhaps we prefer to wait until aviation is proven to be an unqualified success. On January 1, 1929, there were 1598 improved airports in the United States, which was an increase of 51 per cent over the previous year. This figure does not include the so-call- ed “unimproved” airports and emer- gency landing fields, of which there were approximately 5,000. At the present time 921 airports are projected or being constructed. New Britain “talked airport” as early as most of these 921, but we are still talking. “SON OF THE PRESIDENT” The satisfaction of John Coolidge at the prospect of more privacy after March ¢ is readily understood. The young man has experienced no end of trouble merely because he was the son of the President of the United States. In appearance and demean- or he is no different than any other normal youth, but the fact that he was the son of Mr. Coolidge caused every step he made to be duly recorded by an over-zealous press. John is jolly well glad to be rid of | the son-of-a-president business. He, like his daddy, will go into private life after March 4. His successor will be Alan Hoover. John sympathizes with Alan. THE BRISTOL BOOM If our neighboring city of Bristol is really destined to boom in the manner anticipated we heartily con- gratulate it. The New Departure plant, it is reported. has steadily ex- panded and the future looks bright. Instead of posscssing an overplus of empty houses or apartments Bristol is said to have no more than 100 in the This looks like progress of a most substantial sort. entire city. Bristol has advantages in excess of the average city of its size. Its fine schools, ' high school; its boulevard, its beautiful Rockweil park and lagoon—all these are worthy of local pride. In addition, its scenic advan- tages are uncommonly delightful Nestling in a valley almost entirely surrounded by high promontories it creates & lasting impression in the minds of visitors. THE STATE'S SUPER-HIGHWAY ‘Though the Boston Post Road be- | tween New York and New Haven is said to be the most traveled highway in the country, it is now so wide that the parallel highway sanctioned by the Legislature of 1927 will not need to be constructed at once, it is said. The Post road today is 40 feet wide between New Haven and Port Berlin to converge with the super- highway beginning at New Haven. This would not be neceasary if the auxillary highways already exist- ing were in uniformly better shape. 1t is possible to drive to New York without touching the Boston Post road, but the going is not as smooth; there are a few hills, and some curves; but the trip is possible and would be more popular if the roads were in proper shape along the entire route. After.the highway department is through with the precious Post road let there be more attention paid to the improvement of other highways | that need it. We are not overlooking the fine work that has been done; stretches of lesser known highways have been improved. What is needed through routes of good quality betwen important centers, which will automatically relieve the pressure upon the present popular main thoroughfares. Such work should be continued and increased if possible. are more FALLACIOUS ARGUMENT “Show me a local industry that furnishes its clothes for its em- ployes.” And with these words one of the civic fathers helped to dispose of the recent move to have the city provide the policemen with their uniforms. It this argumnt had anything to do with the decision not to include a sum for this purpose in the budget then the city fathers are casily sway- cd by emotion, Enlightened cities are furnishing policemen with the uniforms they are forced to wear. Among these are Hartford—which has been doing so since 1919. And there is Stamford. Realizing that'it forces policemen to go to a high expcnse to provide the proper uniforms, New Haven salves its conscience by paying half the bill for uniforms. A bill is before the Legislature which it passed will cause Watcrbury to furnish the uni- forms for its guardians of the law. The fallacy about the opening paragraph is that no industry tells its employes to wear such expensive garments as policemen are required to wear, These uniforms must be provided according to rigid specifi- cations laid down by the city. They cost more than twice as much as ordinary good clothing. On an aver- age every policeman is forced to spend $90 a year on his uniforms. It isn't a squarc deal. When a municipality is so particular about what its guardians wear it should be willing to furnish the clothes so thoroughly particularized. DAY AROUSED When the mayor recently made the statement that William L. Day should retire from the Board of Education he probably did net realize that he was unwittingly ing Mr. Day to caus- change his mind about retiring. For up to that mo- ment Mr. Day was of a mind to let a successor wrestle with the prob- lems incident to the schools. When | he read the words of the mayor he became wrapt in deep thought. The ultimate outcome of this cogitation is now known. Mr. Day intends to mike a bid for the re-nomination. 1t he wins the nomination and is elected that will be one good way to turn a laugh upon the mayor—is Mr. Day’s most recent reasoning. If Mr. Day succeeds in his inten- tion to return to the school hoard the mayor ought 1o be the first to congratulate him. Or maybe he will merely “grin and bear it.” BEATING THE COMMISSION The victory of broadcasting sta- tion WGY at Schenectady over the | Radio Commission is noteworthy. It | will be remembered that a short time ago the commission ordered | WGY to quit broadcasting after 10 ». in Oakland, California, which occupies the same wavelength, to continue from that time on. The difference in time between the two places made this plan feasible. The General Elee- tric Company, which owns both sta- tions, promptly started m. to allow a “sister station™ | court action {to set aside the commission’s order, and after a temporary injunction | has gained a victorious verdict. The decision is tantamount o s ing that the commission overstepped ifselt under the law. It appears that WGY is a main- NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, youth unpremeditated. A weakness of American law is lack of uniformity between sentences in the various states, STARVATION AND WAR In one part of China millions of people are facing starvation. Steam- ships are bringing food from over- seas; frantic efforts are being made to provide humanitarian services. In another part a war lord got it into his head that he could gain 'something for himself by starting a revolution against the new govern- ment. He is not interested in the starving elsewhere in his country. China still furnishes,k the world's most bizarre contrasts. NO TARIFF ON NEWS PRINT It was again necessary for pub- lishers to urge the House Ways and Means committee retain news print paper on the free list. Such urgings should not have been neces- sary. to not in the United States, and to duty upon it would be tantamount to penalizing the use of an article of commerce consumed but not produced in this country. law, making it more understandable, is reasonable. This the publishers advocated, secing there were 4,000 misunderstandings under the pres- ent law, Production of news print is one of Canada’s greatest industries. Canada has the thousands of square miles of trees; the United States is largely be- reft of trees. Virtually every news- paper in the United States is printed on paper that came from the broad expanses of northern Canada. The industry has stimulated the con- struction of railroads far in the north, has created towns there, has caused a demang for electric energy which is supplicd by hydro-electric plants. Without Canadian news print American newspapers would have to get their supplies from Norway. De- pendence upon foreign supplies will continue until somebody invents a method of manufacturing synthetic news print at a lower price than the present variety. Perhaps in time that | will be done—but until then, no! tariff on news print! assess a The hearings of the Ways and Means committee, just concluded, opportunity for all interests to be heard.

Try as we might, we ¢ neE? annot warm up much to the plam of the National to make an at- tempt, with a prize of $500 as the goal, to solve the riddle as to who wrote the dramas credited to Wil- liam Shakespeare, The argument didn't write them Analy mon Puzzlers' League that Shakespeare are down 1o their lowest com- denominator they familiar. resolve that a man like Shakespeare could not have had the brains to give the world such masterpicces.

All of which that the avalanche tance overlooks the fact of genius that plays, with their philosophy of life clad in the impershable armour of created these transcendental superb poetry, need mot have been the product of education, refinement and one possessing the mere habili- ments of acquired skill.

But that isn't the way of life. No education, however extensive, can make a genius out of ordinary clay. The claim that Shakespeare wasn't “cducated cnough” to have written such plays falls of its own weight. | Genius does not require excessive | cducation.

When the work is completed the road will have a capacity, it is estimated, of 50,000 vehicles a day on four lanes of travel. That ought to satisfy the state’'s most particular autoists. The state highway department has expended more funds on this high- way than upom any other single artery of travel. Public demand for a wide highway where so much travel converges has been great, and this demand is by way of being met.
