WMEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRERR, CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING FEB. 14th, 1920 10,575 COAL BY WATER. Whatever relief is possible for New Bngland in getting soft coal is bound ‘to be welcome. The announcement to the effect that the appeal of the gov- ernors of this section to the shipping board for the assignment of more coal vessels for New England trade i’has brought results and that six will {’be placed in commission.for this pur- pose ig gratifying.. It indicates that the governors accomplished / some- thing by their meeting. There is no reason why New Eng- jand should not be provided with suf- ficient coal to keep its industries go- ing and there is no reason with the: large additions to the tonnage in the past two years why increased and | better water service in the coal ca rying business should not be provid- ed. To get coal by water has been the logical method for New England. It was interrupted by the war the increased burden placed upon the railroads, when as a matter of fact they had more than th could at- tend to properly otherwise. But the after war conditions have not reach- ed normal, and the shortage of coal caused by the strike, the failure to move enough for New England to lay by any in case of an emergency and the tying up of much rolling stock by the storms have placed it in a condition. England isn't calamity howl- faced by an actual situa- , a bad feature of which has been the failure of the federal railroad ad- ministration to provide sufficient coal to keep the locomotives running with- out seizing fuel that was on its way to public utilities and industries. ‘It is therefore bound to welcome What- éver efforts result in its getting a sufficient coal supply to keep the wheels revolving, but realizing at the same time that the provision of more ships for the carrying of coal should be of much help now and ought to be of similar help later on unless wa- ter rates are prohibitive. A NEEDED REFORM. When it is indicated that progress is being made toward the enactment of a budget system for the nation's business it is cause for gratification but it cannoi help being felt that whatever progress is. being made still laeks speed. The needs of and de- mands for a budget system have long existed. It should have been in op- *eration before this time and doubt- less would be but for the fact that such will mean” whenever it does come the abandonmefit’ of past prac- tiees which step congress has long been opposed to. This has doubtle: played its part| in delaying the getti together on the features of a bill that will meet ‘the requirements and satisfy. - That a - composite measure has heen agregd upon by taking out of the bills pre- sented in the respective houses the best features' indicates that the time may come when the affairs of “the na- tional government, the same as those of - state, city and town, will be placed upon a business like basis. There is “no good reason why it should not be but every reason why it should. Waste is to be found undgr normal conditions where economy should prevail. The national government should be setting an' exampleé ‘to the municipalities within its limits in- stead of being obliged to look to them for guidance in ‘such matters. Be- cause it has -not done-so. before is and| one of the' reasons for much of the criticism of federal expenditures. It may not mean that the whole « problem will be solved by the enact- iment of such a bill as the composite measure, but it - will nevertheless ;mean that a start has heen made and getting started is offen. the real key ‘to the completion of a reform of tlarge magnitudeé later ‘on. There was ‘never a time when the country need- red the machinery for preventing waste more than it does now. AIRPLANE EXPENDITURES. Once again has the airplane expen- ‘dityres in this country been dug into, Bnd ‘as on other occasions it is foulld| by a sub committee of the lower! house of congress to have been “a riot of waste.” Thus the outcome is| gmuch the same as was disclosed by| Zthe investigation that was made by | Charles E. Hughes some time ago, und in fact the majority of the com- mittee doesn’t appear to have feund tonditions much different than Mr. Hughes set them forth. There is no question but what the country was in:a regrettable condi- tion as far as airplane equipment was concerned .when this country entered the war and for many months @fter- ward. The situation was one that called for ‘the putting forth of un- usual efforts and the planning for production far different than had previously been attempted. Because of the state of affairg it was to be expected that éxpenditures would be large, and it has® edst huge sums to obtain war ‘material of other kinds, but that didn’t justify the wasting of meney in any of the lines of effort. ~The unusual conditions would justify higher prices for war material de- livered as quickly as possible and in guantities, but not waste. ‘When it is realized that we spent considerably over a billion dollars in order to get less than 250 flying ma- chines in ope in more than a year and 2 half it must be realized. that we paid an awful price.

The state upon his retirement will lose a most faithful and. sincere official. DEALING WITH TURKEY: Gradually are -we approaghing «the time when the situation regarding the future ofe Turkey- will be determined. The reported.definite decision of the allied :supreme. council o ~interna- tionalize the’ Dardanelles creates no surprisely ‘That ‘is ‘a’move that’ has been' anticipated: It is a step, that should gnardntee “the keeping open of this connection between the. Madi- terranean’ang ‘Black seas; and the one way -that Russia -and Rumania have of ¢arrying -on trade by -water. But equally as great attention will have to be given to the settlement of the other quesion in that region. It has been indicated that Turkey will be allowed to remaid in Furope. From such evidence as has been furnished in support of - this . probability it seems not improbable, bat it is plain- 1y evident that Turkey, wherever it is allowed - to. exercise control ‘must be impressed with the fact that it will be charged with the responsibility of preventing any further outbreaks against the Armenians by Turkish subjects. Turkey has already done enough, or istration of the office.

Mr. Editor, So much was said be- forehand as to the surprises that awaited us in the post-prandial ad- dresses of the late banquet that we had prepared ourselves to_ hear some- thing extremely practical—commercial, if you please—instead of the somewhat metaphysical and psychological ad- dresses that were given us. Judging from the published report, only one— at most two—of the speakers who spoke on the question of Norwich housing gave a seed thought for an either of these two were accorded the prolonged applause which favored the other addresses above noted. One speaker in his Creed of Con- nectfcut gave some points of national importance, especially when he, said of Connecticut: She believes that Uncle Sam’s portals should swing both ways —in for those who come to make America _their home’ and adopted country, but out for all those that preach anarchy. We endorse this heartily. Per’ contra, the following speaker said: We are fools if we think to banish ideals by deporting certain {men It is our duty, to ‘know what these ideals dre, and what produced them, before we act. We demur to this obligation and task for while we would be diagnosing the disease and ascertaining its source, the. patient would be spreading the left undone enough, to warrant itskcontagion, Herce we say Safety first. elimination as a government.

Turkey has been. under .the knife. That’ it is not.completely wiped out may be, as claimed, duve to the fact that it -may still be the means of stir- ring up a great reliigous war in that part of the world, but it must be im- pressed upon it .that such lease of life as #t may be given will be sub- ject to its conduct in‘ the .future.

During the anniversary of the founding of our town—1909—ex-Presi- dent Taft, speaking from the grand- stand on the nlain, used the following: 'We give his words from memory, but we quote the substance. In speaking of the founders of Norwich he said: Now these people, before they came to these shores, were prepared for self- government by previous processes of thougnl and education, but all peoples are not so prepared. The high and noble privileges of Alnerican citizenship. is net a thing to be thoughtlessly bestowed on every- « that lands on these shores today. In Rcme’s palmy days citizenship had to come by birth, or with a great price obtained by one not so' born. Is American citizenship of less value or Jess consideration than was Rome's in ber .hest days? . We think net, nox that it should be allowed to deteriorate by being cheanly offered or regarded by people not prepared to appreciate { or understand its pre-eminent quali- ties. One of the charges aeainst George IIT was that he restricted im- migration. and so hindered the growth of the American colonies: What was deemed an injury in his day would be a blessing to us in these days, for the nation has reached its manhood, and has now within its ‘borders more aliens than it can regenerate in a life- time. 5 If more are to be welcomed, ‘they should be tutored helpers who are prepared for self-government and who will appreciate its benefits and honor its ideals. SAFETY FIRST. Norwich, Feb. 18, 1920, Spiritualism. Mr. Editor: In the issue of The Bul- letin of Feb. 12 there appears a com- munication from F, J.

A Some think 'the Lansing case will dynamite the democratic party, but most of them know: that it has al- feady been shot full of holes. From the stand the president Has been taking in the Lansing case, there will be no less opposition to the demand for reservationg to the treaty. ‘When any merchant gets to the point where he lets. gypsy women bless his cash register, the wonder is that he doesn’t somplain, not of the loss. of money, but of the register as well. . 3 % 1 Sriritualism where there is one that can be honestly construed against them. v * I do not care to enter into any dis- cussion which will tend to discourage any man from a belief in the religion that he feels is best suited to his moral and religious needs, but still T cannot avoid offering the suggestion that -it is not unilikely that when F.

The other evening Billy was over to his grandfather’s house for supper. While they werq “eating grandfath- er sneezed. It stopped his conversa- tion for a minute, and. then just as he started to resuwge it, Bill; poke up, “XVhEt do you say, grandpa?”’ he ask- ed. Grandfather looked mystified fors a minute; then again began to talk. Again Billy persisted, “What do you say, grandpa?” More mystified looks. Then Billy in- formed him, “Grandpa,” he said, sweetly, “isn’t this a ’scuse me table like ours? The Important One.

Can’t you sug- gest something for a baby of that age?” The other girl smiled. “Why, are you going to get her anything?” she said, a baby two months’ old doesn’t under- stand birthdays, and anyway, it isn’t time for ope.” “Ne¢,” agreed the stenographer, “it isn’t time for a birthday present, and she would not notice that others were getting presents when she wasn’t, but her mother would.” OTHER VIEW POINTS Even $5 a day does not keep the necessary number of immigrants here to do the hard work ef digging, ete.
