THE SMALL TOWN “TREND” IN THE STATE It is sald in Connecticut that it . doesn't make much difference in an " off year how the small towns vote— _, except in the towns. What one thinks ~ about this, however, depends upon personal political prejudices. Certain it is that the grand moguls of eact party like to make a good sLwing in the small towns, even in an off year and when the main political contention in some of the towns is as to what farms the new road is to pass or whether the first select- man made a profit over and above . the $5 a day allowed for grading a °" dirt road under his jurisdiction. Even the color of the water thac ., flows _from the town's main pump sometimes has a devastating effcct . upon somebody's political fortunes. '“ They have personal politics in these small towns—and the smaller the | ..., town the more strenuous the politics. -~ None of this big city stuff, with ha the voters not knowing what the leaders are talking about. They take things “close to home"” seriously— and yesterduy 130 of the 169 went through the crucial test of balloting for their favorites. Demoerats naturally like to see signs of a “trend” in the small .., town elections; that is to say, they i« like the small towns to be the straws which show which way the larger political wind is blowing. Perhaps the Democrats have an opportunity soit@rgloat -a Jittle today, seeing that [ ©+ more than a score of municipalities " showed political changes and that seven of them, according to early reports, had jumpe¢ % the Demo- cratic column. Of course, it is possible to talke in . hand the State Manual and figure | out more or less laboriously just | what the figures indicate in the light of past performances; which leads up to a statistical enumeration that " leaves the mind In a daze. It is held. however, that figures inthe off years do not amount to much, depending ., entirely upon the fervor of the con- « tests over the town offices; while the tigures in the major elections also | do not amount to much in most of .. the small towns because they in- variably poll Republican.\The “acute | left in what | with the: observer,” therefore, . is termed a “quandary,” ang natur- - ally concludes that nobody knows what may happen in an off year and everybody knows what happens dur- ing a presidential year. Some of the towns identified with * yesterday's political melee “small” only in theory. Among the most Interesting.in this group was the election in Middletown, where " Mayor F. J. Biclefield, Democrat, was elected for a third term and with him went into office almost the “ entire Democratic ticket. Mr. Biele- field got more votes by a thousand than Cox obtained for President in are @ 1920, or 1300 more than Davis ob-| movement. " tained for President in 1924, and 700 less than Smith received for - President in 1928. Mr. Bielefield ob- tained 700 less than Morris in that same year, and about an equal total | property owners and residents there less than the other Democratic can- didates of that period. Mylchree his Republican 1400 fewer votes than Hoover did in 4 1928, and so on down the line. We | of helium is in the United States. It | outskirts opponent, received | indefinite up to the eighth inning was climax- ed then and there by three Athletics on the bases and one hand out. But when spit-baller Grimes pulled him- selt out of his hole it was felt that the game might go into an over- time spree of ciphers. The teams looked too evenly matched to regard the possibilities otherwise. That ninth inning, with the Ath- letics at bat, changed the situation radically, all due to Mr. Foxx turn- ing in a homer with one on the bags. Dispatches from St. Louls say that Foxx traversed the bases amid such silence that his every footbeat could be heard all over the park. It is easy to sympathize with the rabid St. Louis fans who were forced to see such a termination to a brilliant game. But the Cardinals, we suspect, are not yet completely downed. A team that can .come from behind the handicap of {wo defeats and put up such a quality of baseball as has been offered during the last three games is entitled to the respect of | all followers of the national game. The public likes that type of game- ness; and though Connie Mack's great Athletic machine is the re- cipient of a vast admiration in every city except perhaps St. Louis, there is no denying that the Cardinals form a great team that might yet| win one or two games in Philadel- phia. At least, if they continue the pace struck up in St. Louis nobody is going to be interested in many other types of sports until the series is finally conclvded. THE EXPORT OF HELIUM COULD BE PERMITTED Opinion seems to be uniform that had the R-101 heen inflated with helium instead of with hydrogen there would have been no explosion and the loss of life correspondingly light. Therefore, it is held, there should be a_rglaxation of the American na- tional defense barring the ex- port of heliumn to foreign nations for cxperimental purposes. The only known unlimited supply act is a non-inflmmable, non-explosive gas made from natural gas. Tt js produced in unlimited quantities in Texas and Kansas, but is expensive From a humanitarian standpoint the ban against its export should be litted if and when treaties can be made that such helium as is export- ed would be used only for experi- mental purposes in aviation. Such | treaties could be procured, Owr extension of regret and sym- pathy to the British nation in its hour of sorrow at losing distinguish- ed airmen through the latest diri- gible tragedy could therefore take on | practical assigtance by permitting the export of helium. We cannot use | all of it ourselves and there can be no valid objection to its use else- where for experimental purposes which would further the cause of aviation. SUBURBAN IMPROVEM CONSTANTLY NEEDED The city is streets in the outskirts which have not yet been accepted as public thoroughfares, yet serve as streets | to such parts of the public that 10 utilize them. Invariably honeycombed with forced such unaccepted streets lack sewers, sidewalks and paving. Manifestly, the city is confronted with a curious- ly expensive problem in connection . strects, yet it is one that must ultimately be colved regard- less of the costs. The city taxes property along such streets, and makes no reduction be- cause of the fact they are not for- term mally accepted—a technical which means they are unofiicial streets. Such thoroughfares exist ir | profusion the outlying sections especially the newer sections.

In this connection the city is in the very same position as the state. The state has constructed a large mileage of main highways and is now being dogged by residents in the rural districts t6 pay increasing attention to the rural or side roads. The city has a large assortment of paved main roads and is being con- fronted with the necessity of doing more for the minor streets. We have an efficlent engineering department. Superintendent Merian's work, we feel certain, has been a satisfaction to all concerned. Under his jurisdiction some of the more important residence streets have been nicely improved with a com- position of crushed stone and asphalt binder. These streets are entirely adequate and seem well able to with- | stand the traffic to which they are subjected. The Mayor and Common Council too, feel, certain, are willing to do all within their power to accelerate the era of well nigh perfect streets; and as for the board of public works, the city need only appropriations and will do the we make sufficient Chairman Humphrey rest. Little more can be done this fall. | but all citizens, we are sure, would | like to sec 1931 something of a ban- | ner year—one bigger and better even than 1930—in the noble task of im- proving outlying streets, A large number of New Britainites live on them and any city administration which wishes to keep in close touch with the best wishes of such resi- dents can do no better than to keep up this work, which has been ably begun but which is far from finish- ed. A PERSONALLY CONDUCTED REVOLT OVER POLITICS The revolution Brazil widespread in indicates that another one: crop couptry is feeling the farce of the depression in its staple crop. While the is directed against political personali- ties, it is scarcely to be doubted that the low drice of coffee is the funda- mental driving force for the revolt. revolution ostensibly If coffee were bringing high prices in Brazil and the country were prosperous, nobody would have the time or inclination to think of start- ing a revolt. i Brazil has a population of 30,- 000,000 people, * including Indians. Success or failure of the revolution will depend upon what happens in the state of Sao Paulo, headquarters of the gpffee Industry, and whether the army and mavy remains loyal. Government circles in Washington profess to believe that the larger part of the army and navy will remain true to the existing regime; but ! other disquieting reports have it that the revolutionaries possess an army of 40,000 men and are ex- pecting the assistance of every man in the states and districts they “conquer.” The weakn€ss of the revolution 1s that it is bound up too strongly with the personal ambitions of its leaders. Thesc apparently have seized upon the prevailing economic depression as an opportunity. to win their po- litical ends, which at at the top is an attempt sto prevent President- clect Julio Prestes from taking of- fice next month. In other words, someone clse wants the job—and in order to get it a revolution is start- ed. No great principle apparently is involved. ITALIAN AND GERMAN FASCISTS According to dispatches from Coblenz, Germany, the frequently suspected connection between the Italian Fascists and the German Na- tionalists and Fascists was publicly proclaimed when representatives of the Italian Fascist party attended a nass meecting of the Steel Helmets, as honorary from Ttaly, guests. The Fascists it was said, “brought very friendly greetings from Italy” and were accorded the privileges of honored guests. Which tends to confirm also the observations of trained writers that | some very peculiar diplomatic rangements are being discussed fn | ar- various national circles. Germany and Ttal both for instance dislike the Versailles Treaty | liking it because it failed to make | provision for larger slices of land in | frica and elsewhere to be added to | her empire.

The other day the fellow crashed headon into another car, killing one person and maiming two others. He was going so fast that the car he struck turned over three times. He himself was uninjured. He had been in one of his usual hurries and had driven out of line in order to get ahead of the traffic in front of him. Now he is faced with a grand jury indictment—not manslaughter, as is the case in many states—and if convicted faces a first-rate term in prison. All the available evidence appears to be against him, eyewit- nesses saying that before the acci- dent terminated his wild xide he had passed three traffic signals. We refer to this matter merely to indicate the type of drivers, regard- less of their money or social stand- { ing, who are mentally unfit to drive a car and should be ruled off the highways before, and not merely after, an accident. Such persons must be known to the police and i their hands were not tied they could casily attend to the details of climinating such hazards from the roads. A Such drivers are met with nearly every day. They are a greater menace than grade crossings or bad curves. The authorities go to lengths to eliminate the two latter; why not the former also?

T7.—Although they say time softens such a blow, any effort to comment upon the recent passing of Will C. Hogg $n Daden-Baden, Germany, bring a fierce choke. One of my dearest friends, he was the most impulsive- ly noble and steadfastly loyal gen- tleman I ever encountered. No per- son could be more widely beloved. I loved him as few could love their favorite brother. For 12 years our lives have been almost constant ccmpanionship. About ten years older, he was my guide, my coun- sellor, my friend. His mind, his v1- tality, his varied resourcefulness were magnificent. He had a light- ning temper. His sweetness was chlldlike. He was a man! Just three months ago. after knocking arqund Europe all sum- mier together, we exchanged rowdy farewells in Berlin. *“So long, you big stiff!” I called out the Bremen boat train window. He glanced about quickly, thumbing his nose slyly, turned and was swallowed up by station crowds as the train thun- dered away. Then the other weely came that distressing cable frond his sister: “Brother has undergone an emer gency operation.” There were three days of waiting anguish and came ftom the patient himself, a typical cable: “Don’t speak of my unem- r\loy"]nz‘n',.” And while our hopes ran 'high, the thunderclap news ol the end. He was superlatively civic con- scious and spent largely of his vast wealth in beautifying his native Houston, but always from an ob- scure anonymity, Until several years ago there wgs not a newspaper in he Texas city in which he was de- servedly knowns as “the first citi zen” that had his picture in i filing room. -~ Due to my personal manner of writing it was next to impossible not to mention him in my triviali- ties but it always vexed him. Often in a flush of anger he would ex- claim: “If you run my name in your blankety-blank column again I'm going to slap you down.” And I trust he forgives this attempt at eulogy. The son of an illustrious sire, Gov. James Hogg, he had that fix- ation for right so frequently char- acteristic of sons of great men. Outwardly gruff and at times poeti- cally profane, inwardly there was no phase of altruism he did not possess. The rascals remain but the worthy g dn. It is all inscrutable. No person T ever knew was such a human anomoly zs Will Hogg. He v.as at once the cosmopolite and the backwoods Jasper. He was an art collector of distinction. his col- lection of Remingtons being the largest in the world, his knowledge of period furniture profound. He civided time among his Park ave- nue home, old wdrld capitals and his beautiful estate, “Bayou Banks," in Houston. Yet I have scen him hunched over a stcaming bowl of chili in a sawdust joint eating with the gusto of a starving tramp. He would endure tortures of jerk-water 1ailroads to see a county fa He carried cooks from Texas all over the world to have a daily supply of corn ,pone for himself and friends. Always his friends—he lived solely for them and his brothers and sister. Twg of his very closest intimates were Irvin Cobb and Ed J. Nolan, a Tos Angeles banker. There is no one outside his immediate family for whom Cobb bears such affection as he does for “Bilog"—as he sign- ed himself. Cobb hurried home from a shooting trip in North Carolina upon hearing the news — a tragic, | “with a sick cow and a sour well.” \ A disturbance of considerable in- tensity is central over Arkansas.

The world can never be the same place for any of us with ‘Will Hogg not here. Will Hogg, could not resist a hard luck story, no matter how un- worthy. I saw him touched for ten sizable sums in a two-block walk in Hollywood. As a result of such constant attacks his life became one of isolation. For a year before his passing he roamed between Berlin and Paris, often stopping at second- rate hotels, “to dtick the pan- handlers.” He met strangers awkwardly and inherent shyness was often mistak- en for rudeness. If strangers came into a room he made a precipitous and ungracious exit. His modesty is illustrated by this. Spending Xmas holidays with him in Houston one vear, he mentioned he was going down to his little ranch in old Mexico. “Just a patch,” he said, I trailed along. The acreage of this “patch” was trice that of Manhat- tan Island, stocked with thousands of cattle and a Spanish castle that would surprise the dwellers in Bev- erly Hills. S None of us on earth may fathomn this phenomenon harshly called Death. Yet I am utterly naive enough to believe that dnly the physical aspects of the Will Hogg we loved vanished. Some day T hope to hear him shout: “Hello, Splinters, how in hell did you get up here?” (Copyright, 1930, McNaught Synioate, dnc) Assoclated Press Photo An attempted revolt against the ad. ministration of President Col.
