The pressure which the allies have been bringing to bear upon Turkey and Austria-Hungary has had its effect. Turkey has been practicaliy crushed militarywise, and being shut off from supplies when Bulgaria surrendered its action in thr p its hands is some time been por- has had its back for a long time. The r to hold on in the hope that the pleas of the central powers for an armistice and peace would be able to bt easi rms than would be se- cured through separate action following the course adopted by Bul- garia amounted to nothing, and now with its fighting forces broken there is pothinz to do but to acknowledde defeat and submit. And what is true of Turkey is to a large degree the case with the dual monare! There interior conditions are dedly bad. It is impossibie to stagger alonz under them especially in view of the situation ‘on the bat- tlefronts wh the allies are rapldly reclaiming territory ad over- or by coming such eistanc 2 Austria- Hungary Is able to make. It is recognized that Germany is he! in no position to give any further and likewise in no condition to punish it for any separate action which it may take.

Desert one it can do not g else pt the allled terms and % 1o reason o expect that they light in any detail. The central powers are real- izing now t 5 to reap as they While we have heen giving the to making ¢ shments in 'tnis coun- try a c to do a greater business and encouraged others to engage in that of production by having the toys made in Germany kept out of the United States, just the same as the makers of dyestuffs have been stimulated to sreater effort, Jt can be readily un ood that ths toy mak- Ing business which has been. devel. oped here should not bz allowed to f@windle away after the war is over. Toys are going to be required just a8 much if not more than ever, and the situation here cannot be far dif- ferent than that in ngland where United States Consul-General Skinner In a recent report declares tnat “great possibilities will exist in the metal toy trade after the war, with a large demand for mechanfcal-con- struetional toys of the type which be- fore the war were imported from France and other European countries.” There has never been any good rea- won why the toy making business or the dyemaking business should not be conducted on more extensive lines in this country. There is no question but what there is-rcom for them. We have the raw material and the de- mand for the finished goods. The cap- ital will be found available if it can be assured of a fair chance and the industrial expansion which will follow will be in keeping with the ambitions the country.” We have seen the im- el e v NURWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, \ portance of looking ouf for our own needs but it. will amount to nothing unless we are prepared to put intd practice the lessons of the recent past, THE PRESIDENT’S UNJUST PLEA. Voters throughout the country, though they have been entirely in sympathy with the plea made some time ago regarding the adjournment of politics, are not overlooking the un- just course which is now being pur- sued by the president in departlng from his proclaimed attitude and claiming that only democrats can be safely sent to congress. How wrong this is is pointed out by the New York World, an administra- tion paper, the editor of which has been sent to Furope by the president on a special mission, when it says, “When this consress met, a year ago last March, the house of representa- tives was so evenly dividedly politi- cally that its organization became a personal rather than a party matter. If Mr. Mann could have commanded the votes of all the republicans and indeperdents of republican leanings, he and not Mr. Clark would have been speaker. In spite of several deaths and resignations, the party division remains so close to this day that if republicans were disposed to take ad- vantage of absenteeism they easily control affairs, “Considering the fact that the great majority of republicans and aemo- crats in both branches have sustatned the administration inall its war meas- ures, the necessity for a reelection of | a democratic congress as such and solely for the purpose of war is mot apparent.” The World likewise polnts out that blicans have been among the most loyal supnorters of the president while his own party men have fed in unreas- onable antagonism. To call for nothing bui democrats under such a sifuation ~an result in nothing but resentment and i it <nould result in more republicans be- ing elected than misht have been had no such political plea been made it would cause mo' surprise. And - the World is not the only adminisiration vacker which looks at it that way. CANNOT BE OVERLOOKED. While Germany and the natlons which have been associnted with it in the war are realizing that they cannot win and are asking for a halt on the ighting lines and for the -onclusion of peace, there can be no disoosition or inclination to put to one side the long series of carefully planned and exe- cuted horrors which have heen com- mitted since the opening of the war. There has been no regard paid to the -ules of war. In a despera effort n at any cost they haveproceeded | a0t only to violate all ernational law but to ties and depredations w hich could { only be expected of savages. These | deeds are not confined to any one of them but have been committed hy but it is thoroughly understood where the leadership has been and what re- | sponeibility has zone with it. Documents have come Into the pos- sessicn of the allies which show trat the German commanders ordered methodical destruction of property and cven the ‘poisoning of wells. The peo- ple of the invaded countrins have been ireated so frightfully that it is aot only impossible to desoribe it but it even outdoes the imazinatior. Pris- cners have been incredibly starved, The horrors have been committed by Ger- Austria-Hungary, Bulgarse. and will stand out as the most crimes of history and the st of it is that the responsibility for it must be attributed to the nation hich has served as the leader zardless of its boasted civilization. Such conduct is never goirg to be forgotten and it cannot be over- looked when it comes to arranging the rms of peace. The course which was considered necessary to thelr suc- cess has proved their undoing. The world has been set solidlv against it and action must be taken which wili forever prevent all possibility of its resumption, ) EDITORIAL NOTES. When the Austrians admit a reverse it appears to be expressing it lightly. The need of reestablishing an east- ern front is becoming less and less each day. The trouble ith “politics 1s ad- journed” is that only the president inew there was a time fuse attached. Turkey was losing its army so fast that there would not have beew enough left to surrender if it had not made te.

Great changes are said to be taking place in the central powers but it is noticeable that the smperors are still hang!ng on. The man on the corner says: Being reasonable as * well as seasonable snows real efficlency when it comes to weather offerings. Everything points to the fact that Bulgaria when it surrendered knew Austria’s condition fully as well, if not better, than it did. The talk sbout peace didn't block the fourth Liberty loan and it will not frustrate the effort to make the war work campaign a success, What an awakening must have taken place in Austria,and what stimulating effect that appeal to hurry peace must have had upon Germany? It would be too bad of course to make Austria-Hungary, or Germany for that matter, suffer tirougn any delay on the part of the allled nations in rushing forth with an armistice. One of the greatest mistakes of the age will be made by the democrats if they think they are going to get re- publicans to vote the . democratic ticket as a demonstration of thelr loy- alty to the nation. Try as they will the democrats of Connecticut are unable to show a single convincing reason why Spel- acy should make as zdod a governor as Holcomb, and certainly there can be no thought of going backward.

The white butterfly knows what she wants and gets it. She will only lay her eggs on leaves of the Crucifer or- der of plants, of which the cabbage variants—cabbage so called, caulifiow- er, Brussels sprouts, cole-rape, swede etc—are the most valuable to man.
