New London: Nov. 22.—Many years ago, away back in the days when General Grant was president of the United States, a bombastic politician from the then wild ani_ wooly west | who was rewarded for his political work by appointment to the highly dignified position of messerger ‘at the White House, wrote to the big gun in politics in his home towr. telling of the importance of the position, and of his own importance, an (nciden!any wrote that he was “bigger than Grant!” When the staterment was brought to the attention of the pres- ident that bunch of puffed-up humani- ty lost his job and was given to un- derstand tha: he was not quite as big a man as the president. E. Frank Morgan, mayor, chief of police and chief magxctnne is to New London what President Grant was to the nation. The mayor announced that in his opinicn it was for the public good to have the moving picture houses open on Sundays and gave the managers permission to do business on condition .that there be no increase in the price of admission. This sound- ed good to many of the people and the praises of the mmayor ware being sung when the prosecuting attorney for the city notified the pclice depart- ment, or rather the capt of police, that if the picture houses opened and chorged admission to see 10 1t that ar- rests were made, and that the houses be closed forthwith. The houses were obmed and free exhibitions were en. This in order not to disappoint \he public and at the same time com- ply with the orders of the prosecuting attorney, who in_this instance proved himself to be a_higzer man than the mayor. the chief magistrite and the chief of police. The prosecuting attorncy perhaps would not have put the kibosh on Mayor Morgan's good intentions, but for the interference of the pastors of some of the churches whc demanded that the law be enforced inso far as it related to the charging of admission to entertainments on Sunday. The good intentions of the mayor, how- ever, are appreciated by thc many who like to enjoy innocent and harmful musement cven on Sunday evenings. There are many laws violated repeat- edly right here in New London that tend to demoralize the people more than do the movies, but tc these the ministers seem to wink the other ey: Ministerial influence is perhaps re- sponsible for the failure of the peo- ple to respond to the request of the mayor that the city be dressed in flags and bunting in honor of the signing of the armistice and to re- main dressed until after the declara- tion of peace. These same moulders of character may be respornsible for the general ingnoring of the mayor’s proclamation for a general clean up in order to improve the general sanitary condition of the city. The people ———— were about to comply when word was passed along not to put the rubbish out on the sidewalk in receptacles as there was no probability of it being carted away, on week days, not Sun- days. Perhaps this, too, may have been the work of the gentlemen who frus- trated the fine plan of the mayor to open the movies on Sunday nights, just the same as on the other nights of the week. There is some talk to the effect that the ministers took the matter of the movies up with Captain Finney of the police force and not with Mayor Mor- gan, the chief of police, and that with- out awaiting orders from ‘he chief the captain ass@ued to be a ‘?igzger” man than the big chief, and sent the cops to the movies to stop tke collecting of coin at the entrance, clthough they had been granted that privilege by the mayor and. chief. Here's where t e prosecuting attorney came in again and showed that so far as enforcing law is concerned he is the Liggest man in town. It is perhapssthe duty of the attorney to do his full du’y when re- quested to 4o so by the clergyman or any other man. , No manifesto has been issued by E. Frank Morgan, either as mavor or chief of police for lack of enforcement of the violations of the lijuor laws by the sale of liquor on Sundays and at illegal hours. Nor has th: prosecuting attorney issucd any orders to Captain Pinney and the departmert direct to strictly enfoice the liquor laws. Tt is claimed that since a former mavor forced the retirement of Captain Ha- ven and the present mayor «ffected the retirement of Lieutznant leffers, and increased the force in numbers and efficiency: that there wculd be great- ly improved police service. Perhaps it is coming, but not vet. The mayor knows, Captain Pinnew and his men know, and so do the ministers, that there is open violation of the liquor laws in New London every day in the week, or rather night, end that in- cludes Sundavs, and the prosecuting attorney is fully aware of the fact. too. Were the chief and captain of police so disposed, they could order or conduct a raid that would show results. There is one or more regu- larly licensed places in the e the great bulk of liquor done on Sundays, and if the police do not know the location of these places, there is lack of efficiency the practically newly-organized force.| The police know, or ought to know, | that there are booze places in the city, where keye of entrance can be bought for a quarter each, ani any fellow with a key can get all the booze | wanted provided the pri is forth- coming. The police know of places not for from the very business heart of the city where men witn known pro- pensities to drink visit in large num- bers on Sunday: and they are not all cigar smokers and do not make the visit to get cigars.
