But one equally interesting item is not shown by the above statistics— that the acreage sown to wheat in 1929 eclipsed the acreage of the four previous years by a comfortable margin. The acreage in 1929 was 61,000,000—and this after a year in v hich wheat on December 1 was be- low the dollar level! In 1928 the acreage was 58,000,000, It is therefore of small moment to say that the total of wheat to be planted this spring will be affected by the price obtained. At least, not if he is guided by the same philoso- phy as last year. There is also little to be gained in criticising the cost to the people as a whole in stabilizing the wheat possible—with New Britain Herald NERALD PUBLISHING COMPANY New Britain, Connecticut Tasyed Dally (Sundsy Excepted) At Herald Bldg. 67 Church Street SUBSCRIPTION RATES 3109 & Tear $3.00 Three Months 76e. & Month Eptarsd st the Post Office at New Britatn as Second Class Mall Matter, TELEPHONE CALLS Business Office . 928 Editorial Rooms .... 926 The only profitable advert!sing mediam fn"the City.

Defeated in.their effort to obtain control in “regular unions,” and nearly disrupting the one powerful union in which they actually did control, the 48,000 Communists— taking the highest figure—in the United States are busy attempting to lead the unemployed in some way or other and thus making an impres- sion. The entire business is a propa- ganda effort. A man out of a job naturally has plenty of time to follow anybody promising to put on some kind of a tree show. Consequently when police in various cities abuse the men who follow in the wake of such leader- ship for a day they run chances of abusing perfectly innecent workmen who are merely milling around to see what it is all about. The handful of Communists know, too, that the more they are given the official razz the more sympathy they will likely get from the unemployed with which they are trying to make an impression. EMBATTLED DEMOCRACY That the Democratic party in this city purposes to put a strong step forward in the forthcoming political campaign is not red hot news; the assumption was widespread months ago, in spite of the controversies that have raged between the Mayor and at lcast one prominent Demo- crat. ‘What clears the air for the Demo- crats is that the Mayor is intent pon not running for office again, thus making it possible to smooth over all the factional fractures that probably ensued during the con- troversies, which all Democrats, by the way, did not epprove. The party appears to be actuated by exceedingly optimistic designs upon other fices as well. important of- Optimism before an election at least costs no more than pessimism, and by its very nature is inclined to do more for the party than the other. MR. NAIR AS A CANDIDATE We have given some space in these columns to Mr. Quigley, and perhaps a sense of fairness compels us to devote a few lines to David L. Nair, who according to the pub- lic prints. is likely to oppose him for the Republican nomination at the primaries. What can be said about Mr. ir is that he has been an active alder. | man, one who has attended meet- | ings and has given much of his time to the city, in his capacity as alder- man. This is what a good alderman is supposed to do; and it therefore can be said that Mr. Nair has been a worthy servant of the public in this capacity Mr. Nair will have an-casfer time receiving the backing of the Re- publican organization than Mr. Quigley. In the first place, Mr. Nair has not had the Republican organi- tion down on him at any point; he as worked by and with the organi- zation virtually all of the time, and incidentally that is the type of can- didate some of the leaders in the or- ganization prefer. Of course, that is not saying that Mr. Nair has as wide a public following as Mr. Quigley, but as the primaries will be an exs- pression of the desires of those in the Republican party, not necessarily those on the outside of it, it might suspected that Mr, Nair, if he gs a pers an even chance of being m)mmat\':d.l THL all the MARDI GRAS cities in this great an zlorious Republic, New Orleans ap pears to have the edge upon all for its cultivation of the spice of life, | One of our metropoli White W hoasts its Loop; boasts Great ¥ and others boast whatever they have handy to foist unsuspecting transient in upon the carch of excitement.

It is our native soil, how- ever, that germinates the humbug. The Supreme Court has faults, as Senators charge, but it wasn't the Supreme Court that got us into this mess to make votes back home. Doubtless the perfect citizen is one who feels an urge to shout the national anthem while making his income tax.return. Modernism in literature seems new because it appears in book form instead of the single shests once sold by the town per- vert. Just Mummies teach us little about Egypt. Archacologists a few thou- sand years from now may judge us by our theme songs. Longer skirts will save the cottoa industry if somebody will find a way to use cotton fiber in rayon. The chief fault of patriotism is that it gets us in trouble and thea quits before we get the bill paid. The reason a girl's “superior mind” keepa her single is because no man enjoys living with a case of swell-head. A dcad town, as a rule, is one that permitted a few men tio run everything until they got fed up on praise and lost interest.

To “help out” Miller had his cowboys stage the first rodeo, or round-up, including feats of roping and horse- manship. Tn 1903, the National Editorial Association held its con- vention at “101" Ranch. The Mil- ler boys, recalling the show given by their father at Winfield, decided to stage a similar show for the enter- tainment of the visiting editors. This went over so well that they de- cided to travel over the country like 2 circus. This was the beginning of thg 101" Ranch Wild West show. E. Did China and TRussia sign | the Kellogg Peace Pact?

Especially is this true of those who came from the whistle stops. A paragraph in the local weckly provides a bigger emo- tional wallop than a first page spread in a metropolitan daily. There is a millionaire who sens a confidential employee back to h native village every year or so to pick up, sub rosa, any information, adverse or otherwise, as to what his former townsmen think of his tri- umphs in the big town. He has been the recipient of many testimonial dinners, honored by foreign governments and was ence called in private audience for consultation by a president of the United States. Yet his proudest mo- ment was to deliver an address be- fcre the graduating class of his home high school. ‘While many such notables never return to the forks of the creek even for a brief visit, it is the adu- lation back yonder that is the in- spiration of day dreams. The ouly newspaper they read trom “kiver o Kiver” is the onc from their local community. One commercial Caliph left his native heath carly in youth under the cloud of a boyish escapade. Al- thought he made his way over al- most unsurmountable obstacles, that adolescent experience rankled. He was of great importance every where save in the high grass. Rumors reached him from tims to time of slightly disdainful smiles among his townesmen when his name was mentioned. So.he decided to even the score. He ® journeyed home in his private car with a brace of secretaries and announced the gift of a public park to the town, He arranged for a public dinner in the leading tavern to which the entire populace was invited. At its conclusion he arose and said: “Yon have accepted my hospitality to- night after snzering at me for years. Now you can all go to blazes.” And he walked out, his head in the air —like a petulant school boy. Drug stores now sell ear plugs for victims of New York's incoher- ent din. They arc a patented ar- rangement of soft rubber that tit into the car and shut out the city’s hullabaloo. While many are sold to natives living ncar the clevated, the big sales are among transicnts in widtotn hot e Cupping r at an open win- dow, in the midst of this, the fol- lowing noises drifted up from the street 10 floors below: A medley of auto horns; the shrill of three po- lice whistles; the chirruping shri of a mail wagon; the cry of a news- boy and the rat-a-tat of a riveti machine a block away. Unless my old cars deceive n the riveting machine is the same in- strument my dentist used a couple undays ago. The roisiest spot in town to my notion is in irant of Grand Central station. The constant procession of axicabs, the rattlc of the clevateld, | the screcch of the subway, rumble of trains, cxplosion of track tor- pedoes, ery of porters and newsboys '\\‘ashmglon and heavy clump of fect make it a | perpetual bedlim. Withering retort of a Droadway- ite to a fresh lad: “You're too smart for on¢ guy. Why don't you in- corporate?” I have reccived a letter from a bachelor who says that for 10 years he has been eating his dinner at 5 in the evening and afterward gocs | | | [ | | | to his room in a hotel, where he re- mains until time for work the next morning. “This,” he says, “is the gay and attractive city you read about that is constantly luring men to destruction. 1t is the dullest, drabbest place in the world.” May- be it is super-sensitiveness, but I somehow get the idea he blames nie for moast of it. From R. E. St. Louis: “There is ‘a. Peculiar, Mo., which would be a dandy spot for an Odd McIntyre.” You'd feel pretty bad after that crack if I was taken down with a nettle-rash or something.

COMMUNICATED An Opportunity to Join the Women's b Organization for Prohfbition Reform Offered Readers To the Editor of The New Britain Herald: The Women's Organization for Na- tional Prohibition Reform is being. organized in Connecticut and we feel that any woman who believes as we do that prohibition is working a great injury to the cause of temper- ance and has produced an increase in crime, lawlessness, etc., should have a chance to become a member of this organization. To enable all women of the State . to affillate themselves with this mevement, if they so desire, the Con- necticut organization is distributing cards to be returned to headquarters, 3 giving the name and address of the r’- women enrolling and above which signature appears the printed reasons for joining the organization as fol- | lows: u Because I believe that national prohibition has increased crime, lawlessness, hypocrisy and cor- ruption, And because I believe that the cause of real temperance has been retarded, 1 enroll as a member of this organization which is working .for some change in the law to bring about a sane solution of the problem. On the card is printed also the . names of the temporary officers of® the organization in Connecticut. They are as follows: Mrs. Lucius F. Robin- son, Jr., of Hartford, chairman; Miss Eva Hoyt, of Stamford, secretary, and Mrs. Wilmarth Lewis of Farm- ington, treasurer. A note on the card reads: “There are no dues. The work of the organ- {zation is financed by voluntary con-~ tributions. Any amount, however small, will be gratefully received. Checks should be made payable to Mrs. Wilmarth Lewis, treasurers Farmington, Conn.” Though we hope to reach many of the women of the state directly, publication of this letter in The New» Britain Herald we know, will bring this organization to the attention of many persons, who otherwise would not be apprised of its formation, and we hope you will see fit to publish it. Anyone wishing to obtain a card may apply to the undersigned. MRS. STUART CLEMENT, 12 St. Ronan Terrace, New Haven, Conn.
