Once again has it been demonstrated that the people in the eastern part of the country are thoroushly alive to the necessity of meeting the request of the fuel administrator that there be & curtailment in the consumption of gasolene. Sunday was the third day on of | out ©p which the appeal was listened to and even those who were not affect- ed thereby could not fail to notice the determined effort on the part of auto drivers to meet the situation. So free were the strests of auto- bile traffic that it reminded the peo- ple of the days when the internal com- bustion engines were first being In- troduced. Autos on the street at- tracted attention but so few were they that it wae possible almost to cross the street with one's eyes shut. This was not the case in Norwich alone but the same report comes from every city and community, The pleas- ure riders did something else than in- dulge in their customary trip through the ceuntry by moter ear. The horse was brought into use, people went afoot and not a few got out the bicy- ele or teok the trolieys to reach their destination. Altogether it was a most commend- able response to the request to rave this important fyel and i* makes it evident that if there is as much at- tention giving to the saving of gaso- lene on week days that tnere will be no need of a mandatory order being issued. The fact that the people are impressed with the mecessity of sav- irg makes it evident that they are zoing to do what is required of them and it is a most commend:ble and pa- triotic attitude. OFFERING PEACE TO BELGIUM. Without waiting to hear what Bel- gium is going to say in reply to the peace offer which is made to it by the German government, there is every reason to believe that that little na- tion, torn and bleeding but still fight- ing for its existence, will answer with the same firmness which hes charac- terized previous efforts in that direc- tion, and that is by a positive and emphatic “No!” Belgium is as determined as the na- tions which are fighting for it, that Ger- many must not only be forced to with- draw its armies from its.soil but that it must be made to pay for the dam- age which it has done and to restore the country to i‘e former condition as far as possible. It will require some me maybe but it must be dene. The poiler must he made to settie for depredations. There can be no versight of the havde and horrors which that country is responsible for. Germany makes no mention in its eace offer of such restoration, but it cannot be forgotten and the Belgians are in no meod to forget what it has uffered in the way of fiendish treat- ment at the hands of the Huns. fu It is conscious of the fact that its people have been wantonly murdered ind mautilated, that its homes have been despoiled, that its villages, towns and cities have.been wrecked, that its people have been dragged into clavery, that its industries have been stripped—find its countryside laid hare ike a desert. It knows well enough its food and ciothinz have been the benefit of the invaders, suffered from the looters it has heen bled white in the and eontributions that Belgium is these th it is Peace such as Ger- would give, su tried to forget sreatly mistaken, many as it give to Russia wiil not satisfy.

What a Good Samaritan Germany is to offer peace terms to suffering elgium! 3 In going after Metz the Americans are making the first drive for vietory on German soil. The man on the corner says: Those women who brag about cutting men would never do as lady barbers. If the central powers want peace all they need to do is to cry “Enough” and accept the terms lald down by President Wilson. No wonder the people of St. Mihiel were overjoyed at the coming of the Americans and French. Think of be- ing fed on German news for four years! Those Austro-Hungarian troops who assured the systematic retreat of the Germans from the St. Mikiel salient ought to be due for a carload of iron crosses. It might be interesting to get a heart to heart expression from the kaiser as to what he thinks of the fighting ability of the lightning train- ed_Yankees. The presentation of proof that Le- nine and Trotzky were the hired tools of Germany creates no surprise. It ie simply the confirmation of long standing belief. With Bulgaria and Turkey having a private fight, Germany recognizes how much dependence can be placed upon hired assassing who are dissat- isfied with their pay. The fact that the improvement of West Thames street cannot be started should mean that just so much more attention can be devoted to the im- provement of other city streets. It may be rather rough on the bride-to-he but judging from past ex- periences the announcement that Nat Goodwin is to marry again simply means more business for the divorce mill. The time is now ripe for those as- pirants for reelection to congress who have been defeated for nominations. to reflect upon the poor judgment which they have exercised in representing taeir constituents. to} | Burbank by his accompMsh- | agri- | | zovernm epartments as patience, he has come forward | WASHINGTON AFFAIRS (Special to The Bulletin.) ‘Washington, D. C., Sept. 16.—A joint resolution was introduced in the sen- ate by Senator Smoot of Utah to ex- press the thanks of congress and pre- sent a gold medal to John M. Brown- ing, inventor of the Browning machine gun. Browning is a native of Utah, and in presenting the resolution the Utah senator asked that it be referred to the military committee and that a very comprehensive statement of the great work done by Browning in the invention of fire arms might be read to the senate. This was donme. The | article reaq into the congressional rec- ords stated that. “Every _Winchester rifle, every Remington rifle shutgun, every Remingtcn automatic rifie, every Colt machine gun, every Colt auto- matic pistol, such as our army officers carry, every one.of these, and many more, ‘and every one of the million army pistols manufactured by a Bel- glan concern—every one of these is & Browning gun. He invented them all And of the millions upon millions of these firearms known on every quarter of the globe, not one bore his nam. There is no Browningz gun plant Ogden. There is a well equipped shop where Mr. Browning ‘putters around.’ He does not manufacture firearms. He invents them and lets the other fellow manufacture them. Just as Edison is the wizard of electricity, so is Brown- ing the wizard of firearms. The Browning machine gun has been de- clared to be the very best in the world.” Commenting on the great work done by Mr. Browning towards winning the war, Mr. Smooth called attention to the fact that he refused to receive any royaity for the machine guns during the period of the war, and nces of his patriotic devo- home life was described as It he were in his shop. one m overalls and jumper, at v as he worked some device for improving a stol.

And | then usually she tears frantieally down | to the stores three days after she has | retyrned goods to see whether those identical articles are still in stock— and she wrenches the whole place; from its foundatiens making the un-| happy elerks search for things. “She called the manager of one store | away from a directors, meeting to in- sist that he have somebody find & cer- tain tablecloth in a rose pattern that: matched her best dinner napkins—and | he is a most awe inspiring manager, | too, with whiskers and a deep bass voice, but that was nothing in Henri- etta's young life on the truth of a purchase. “I was unlucky enough ‘to meet Henrietta the other day just as I was rounding a cormer to join a friend at ice cream soda. My sister grabbed me frantically as best she might when her two hands were occupied with Te- straining_her two young hopefuls. “'Oh, Nellle’ gasped Henrietta at her usual speed of 300 words a minute { | jdo come with me to help me pick out' some gingham dresses!

And, of course 1 have plenty of afternoon things and will only wear these in the mornings. || But let's go down in the basement— a friend of mine got seme lovely things in the basement. No, of course I like those I just sot, but I might see something 1 like better.’ “We went to the basement and Hen- rietta fell in love with a pink plaid and it, too, was sent home. I thought my toil was over when we emerged, but not so. ‘Nellie, she gasped, ‘coma on over to Smith's and see those two ginghams I sent back. 1 just want you to see them—maybe youwll like them better than any of these. I was crazy about them myself' “I was dragged to Smith’s and one of the dresses was still there and Hen- rietta regretted it so violently that she ordered it sent again. “Once on the street we passed Jones' and in their windows was a gorgeol exhibit ofsginghams. Accordingly, one love of a dress was sent out from Jenes.' f “Then she tried to make me help her |§ ! select shoes, but I drew the line. Hen- rietta’ I tald her, ‘you are my sister and I love you, but there are limits. I am a nervous woman and 1 ‘cannot stand seeing shoe clerks carried.off the field of battle fainting and suffering. while the rest of the force has to stay tll midnight putting back on the shelyes the stock which is piled up in windrows about your chair. Besides, I'm sure you don’t need shoes.’ “Henrietta said no, she reaily didn't, but they were having sales now and it seemed wicked not to take advantage of them. Besides she had a pair sent ut the other day, but she guessed she'd have to send them back. They were B Width and she never wore anything but A’s. Why, she ordered them sent because they didn’t have an A width in that shoe—and what would 1 do about it?

Again the passage of the revenue bill 1s held Chairman Kitchin assured the house a weék ago that the bill coulq pass by the 14th: instead it is still under debate, and if it passes by the 21st it will be counted as a luc stroke. The so-called debate on the 1l was often turned into partisan recrimination. Both republicans and democrats can be found guilty by reading the records of the week In the meantime the senate is taking a three day to three day recess, waiting for the bill to make the trip frome one wing of the capitol to the bther. The senate commitiee on finance is con- ducting hearings and will take up the bill when the house passes it. but the question of its passage at this session by the semate is still in dpubt. Every- hody laughed derisively along back in Jume when Chairman Kitchin said in anewer to a question: “If we have z00d luck, those who live close by may get a chance to go home to vote, but T wouldn't want to say as much | for those of us who have far to mo."

OTHER VIEW POINTS Following the recent refusal of the Railway Administration to lighten the burden of traveling salesman at this ime by granting them special con- | cessions over the pleasure traveler a movement is being set on foot to crease the selling commissions rece ed by these men from which they have to pay their own expenses. One of the travelling men's accoeia- tions already has sent out a letter the need of the increase, and | it is intimated that other bodies wi soon follow suit. The point has already been reached where salesmen are spending a very large part of their commissions for traveling expenses, and it is said that there is no reason to believe that the end is yet in sight.
