oo Caraival Ban Expected | At Public Hearing on June 13th A common council fight seems as- _ sured on the question of lifting the ten o traveling carmivals which Bas been in force in this city for the past few years, according to expres- siend of sentiment by members of the ordinance committee at a meet- ,ing last night when the proposed re- pesl of the ordinance was up for dis- cumsion. It was decided to hold a hearing Thursday evening, @8e 13, when all who care to be | Weard on the subject will be given #R opportunity to express them- | selves. | Councilman Joseph Landwehr was | the first to favor lifting the ban | when the committee opened the dis- cussion his point being that the carnivals practicaily play New Brit- ain when they set up in Kensington just over the city line. Councilman Frank L. Conlon said the patrons of carnivals in Kensington have dam- aged Willow Brook park, the lot being next to the park. 1f Kensing- ton carpivals were held on a site re- moved from the New Britain line, he would not be concerned about al- lowing them to be held again in New Britain. Councilman Charles O. Holt, favored lifting the ban as did Councilman Willlam F. Curtin, who said the city might as well benefit by the revenue from carnival | licenses, as the intent of the ban has | been defeated. | Oppose Lifting Ban Councilman Joseph Miynarski was opposed to lifting the ban. He at- tended a carnival when he was & member of the license committee several years ago and saw consider- able gambling. He favored obtain- ing an expression from the Chamber of Commerce on the subject and of- | fered a motion to that effect but it | was defeated without any support except his vote. Councilman W. S. pressed opposition to the return ._)r the carnivals and wanted a public hearing on the question. He recalled that Chief W. C. Hart of the police department told the committee at the time the ban was put on ',h,“' conditions carnival grounds after the performances were pet proper.

ENROLLWENT INCREASING FAST Doubles Each Decade—"Epic of Free Education” Revealed , Washington, June 7 (®—One of the most striking phases of Ameri- can life has been the phenomenal growth of the American high school. ; It is the greatest gift which America has made to the social, ' economic and religious life of the! world. It cmbodies the idea of free school opportunity for all children of the nation. In 1850 there were 110,277 pupils enrolled in the free public high schools of the country. By 1890 the number had increased to 202,963: in 1900, to 519,251; in 1910, to 915,061; in 1920, to 2,100,389, and now more than 4,000,000 are en- rolled. Thus in every decade since 1880 the enroliment has doubled. ensington, practically in New :‘:Ialxn. they might as well be in New Britain for $50 a day whjchi was said to be the fee formerly | charged. | mun st e Restrictions A remonsti : by Nathan Googel of 507 Kast s.cet and 57 others.| against the proposed change in the | What is the reason for the fn- crease?

D. Saxe appearing for some of the remonstrants. The committee voted | unanimously to recommend that the change be made. This action was taken at a recent meeting but when it came to the council, it was re- ferred back for a public hearing. " ProAt in Buildings Small Judge 8axe sketched conditions in the realty market in New Britain, saying they were so poor that own- | ars of business properties were hav- ing ulty meeting théir . carry- Ing chAkrges. -Foreclosures in large numbefs are being made gvery day. he said, and to aliow ‘the addition of stores in tenement buildings would enly make conditions worse. He felt that the common council, Being the legislative body of the city government, should act to protect the public. even to the extent of protecting individuals againat their ewn folly. The congress of the United States, he said, would not legislate except for the best inter- ests of the country and the common council should do likewise for the people of New Britain. Boyle Calls Opposition Selfish Councilman W. D. Boyle replied that it was not the function of the common council to protect the pub- | lie. If property owners wanted to take risks, they could do so, he said, just as speculators could do as they wished about risking their money in the stock market and the common council should not be expected to pretect them. He felt that the pro- posed change was proper and he characterized the opposition as “sel- | fish” because the proposed changze would allow additiondl stores an-d thus afford competition for the pres- ent owners of stores. | _,Alderman W. R. Falk of the sec- end ward explained that he intra- duced the resolution to have the | proposed change made and he felt Justified in doing so. Nobody appeared to speak on the | proposed restriction of the sale of | later it he wants it. This is an age of inventions and. as a result. the curriculum of the high school has been greatly broadened. Tt is no longer strictly college preparatory. but includes preparation for all phases of American life. The realization on the part of the state that every child should ; have equal educational opportunity has brought about compulsory #chool laws. These laws require that all children remain in school tmtil 14 and. in most cases until 16. Perhaps the most potent reason for the great increase has been the acceptance on the part of the peo- ple that the high school is “the college of the commen people.* Only through its doors is the way onened into modern. complex civis lizatlon and every true parent has a desire for his child to have the very hest educational opportunities possible.
