In eonnection with the stand whieh Senator Brandegee. took relative to the federal child labor bill quotations from his speeches are made to give the im- pression that he is opposed to chill la- bor Inws Sight must net be lost of the fact that he recognized the unconstitutional- ty of the child labor bill, that Le was guided by that fact in connmection with his action upon the bill and that he: ap- preciated the fact that those wio were enthusiasticadly urging the bill were deing o regardless of the constitutivn- ality of it. Senator Brandegee was not obstrueting proper child labor regula- tions but what he had to say was rected it would appear to tius: Who were determined to make the bill a law whether it was eonmstitutional or unson- etitutional In the position which he tool it can- not be everlooked that he received from he state board of education at th: time ® protest agamst the bill, which pro- test appears in the Congressional Ree- ord, it apparently being the position of he state board that able to provide adequ aws without interference - by from the federal government The position of Senator Brandeges ie perfectly plain and straightforwsrl. He saye: “I did mot think that, having &worn to support the Constitution I sught to vote for a hill which I thouzht iolated that Constitution. I do ast be- lieve there is any use in attempc #ell gold bricks to the people people want congress to legislats to de- prive the states of the right to p scribe the conditions under which children shall attend tasn the Constitution will 1 be amoandel. I the people want the federal gevarn- 12 <he heir school ve to ment to regulate all their local affairs ntsead of regulating those affairs them- seives, through their state government, then they ought to amend the Consti- tution and not ask me to violas my oath of office” It certainly doesn't count for mueh to eriticize Senater Brandegee for re- fusing to do what could not ba lagaily done and there is no reason to miypose but what those whe are workinz for the suppression of the child labor evil will zet his full assistance when their ef- forts are comstitutional THE WAYTIAN AFPAIR, It is of course commendable thas Secretary Daniels of the navy depart- ment should name a beard for ths in- vestigation of the situation which it has Been reported existed in Hayti in con- mection with the operations of our ma- rinte on the island, and that the in- veatimators” #hould be directed to gy 1o the bottom of the affair and get ali the tacts From such claims as have been maie it would seem that there is every rea- son why full light should be turned up on the comditions which have existed there. If ¥t s so the conditions are dt such a character as represented, then avery possible effort should be mad> to have them corrected and to <ee that nothing of the kind 8 tolerate1 in the fature. But what spems strange in commection with the investigation ‘s that it has been delayed such a lonz time. Seme at least of which complaint is year ago laet month made kmewn to the mavy department Secretary Isst January. But it doesa't appear that anything more was done than to agree with the suggostion of the commandant at that time that there should be a thorough investigatior with A view to pamishing those guilty of un- Jawtul acts. But for the fact that som one imquired about the results of inves. Hieatmg the reported eonditions 't seewns lkely that nething would have been @ome, that the treatment of the ilay- ttams would have been forgotitn and the impreselen gamed amongst those Peopie that what was done was im ac- #ord with the ieas of this coun-ry. The action of the mayy depariment ir the matter doesn’t sho® that it has dis- plsyed the Imterest that would be eox- the acts about; made occurred a and they wers GREECE AND VENIZELOS. Just at the present time Greece is mere than a little coneerned regarding the ill- ness of King Alexander, both because it appears to be serious and because of the efforts that are being made for the re- turn of Constantine to the throme im case of Aiexanders death. Greece toek a ‘forward step whem it disposed of its king who was plainly under the domination of Germany and who ' was guiding Greece in aecord with German direction. By the selection of his son to take his place there appear- ed in Greece to be a general spirit of approval and since Alexander was named the affairs of that country have been characterized by pregressive ac- tion. Venizelos was a -guiding force in the nation at the time of the deposition and he has since continued to be as the pre- mier under the new king. That respon- sible pesition he has discharmed ~with courage and a keen regard for the.po- sition of Greece among the nations of the world, as well as for the weifare of the nation. 4 Recently there has been a desire on the part of Constantine to return te his throne. This is being encouraged by certain circles in Greece which were especially close to him during Ris reign. That there is ne possibility of such a change is recognized ith Alexander alive but with his condition serious as the result of a monkey bite those who are working for Constantine's interests are not losing any time, though it ean- not fail to be believed that the country should and weuld turn to Venizeles in any new chisis even as it did before. Greece pwes much te his leadership. — LAST CALL FOB TO-BE-MADES. In spite of the large number of men and women in Norwich who have been made voters there still remain between 1200 and 1300 on the list of to-be-mades. As was to be expected the new voters are mostly women because this is the first opportunity which has been of- fered them to be made veters and se- cure the full privilege. No matter what the year, however, there is always a certain number whase applications are filed but who mnever take the time or show sufficient interest to go before the board and bé made. There are still many men and women who can unquestionably quality and who will be given an opportunity to do so today. There are enough to keep the board working lively throughout the day, but from the slump in the num- ber made Saturday and the acquaint- ance they have with the many who fail to appear, it will be surprising to the officials connected with the making of voters if half of those who still have a chance to be made appear before them. It is not possible to be made a voter every week. Advantage must be taken of the opportunity that is offered. Ta~ day i the last day in which those whe have made application ean go before the board and qualify, darring the few who may become of age between now and election day. There is certainly no time when those who should be entitled to vote should want to do so more than at 2 national election. To get the privilege of voting one must first be made a voter, and those who are in town and not prevented by sickness should make it a point ‘to go before the board and qualify today. UNITING AGAINST SOVIETS. That the soviet government is net “|going to be able to concentrate its en- tire efforts upon the crushing of General Wrangel's forces is indicated by ths report that comes from Warsaw to the effect that an agreement has been reached betvieen General Wrangel and the Ukrainian forces whereby a union of the two forces will be effected as soon as possible for the purpose of car- rying on a common war against the bolshevik This 'would seem to be action which might readily be interpreted by the so- viet goverr ment as an answer to Its of- fer of peace to General Wrangel. It i dicates without ary question that there is no disposition to enter into negotia- tions for the ending of the fighting. General Wrangel bas the reesgnmition of France, the assistance of certain of its warships and will have if it hasa't al- ready received the valuable help of Gen- eral Weygand who did S0 much in _|thecking tiae bolskevik drive on War- mw, Apparently the agreement between the Ukrainians and General Wrangel is @ recognition of the wisdom of unity of action. The bolsneviki in much of their bgting have been favored by the fact that wrile they had enemies on all sides they Were not united and their opera- tions on the field of battle were in ne vay connected. With the two armies joined and working under a single head such as General Weygand the bolshe- viki will have more reasons than before for being anxioug to make peace with the opponents in the south. With unit- ed opposition in the south and revolts treaking out throughout the country the soviet government has plenty te worry about even if it arranges a final peace with Poland. - EDITORIAL NOTES, Footballwise Yale im't making any more impressive start than it did a-year ago. .

But I was so distracted by Imogene's wrist watch that 1 only glanced at the trip itself between drinks, as it were.” “What was the trouble with sticking to your own timepiece?’ inquired the merves.

Mr. Editor: We have no desire to pres long this discussion further than to make it clear that the suppression of speech ar any political right plavs no part in the case against Mr. Boardman. - “Thinking Citizen” has yét to learn that there are limits to thought as well as to speech. For instance, a disputant must not think that a multiplicity ef words and -sentences is argument. He must net think that®the citation of one or more violations of a requirement jus- tifies or excuses another. Besides, the cases he cites do not ap- ply to the casé under discussion. Mr. Boardman's case differs in that he at- tempts his street meeting in defiance of the law and in spite of the prohibitien. This was not 50 in any one of the in- stances given. What a Thinking Citi- zen is really holding for is that in such & case Mr. Boardman is within his rights agd has his sympathy. Even this ques- tion is in a nutshell for if the mayor has authority to issue permits for street meet- ings at all he has also the authority to withhold such permits when. his judg- ment sees it for the city’s best interesw. When in his judgment he has so decided he who disregards him is an open violator and can only be treated as such. This is the case in hand. A C Norwich, Cenn,, Oct. 18, 1920. ©pposed to Such Demeeratic Propaganda. Mr. Editer: Your editorial of recemt date “A Partisan Plan” was called to mind Sunday when from the pulpit of our little Episcopal church was delivered the first political speech I ever héard frem an Episeopal pulpit. This was under the guise of “The League of Nations” and all that ‘was' missing was Mr. Cox’s picture which might have been hung Between the Stars and Stripes and the service flag. While from this pulpit during the war we were told that Christ came to bring “Peace on earth and good will toward men,” and that threugh Hhn only could the nations of the earth be brought to- zéther anw Wwar epase; today we were of Woodrow Wilsen in The League of Nations that this is to be accomplished. This is the panacea. that not all of the ministers of our city will fall for this bit of demecratic pro- pagahda. AN EPISCOPALIAN. Norwich, Oct. 18, 1320, Speaking Agtinst an Uscvastitutional BN Mr. Editor: Mr. Brandegee's opposition to the federal chiid labor bill may have been purely because he considered it un- constitutional, as your editorial of today states, However, the following quota- tions from his speeches would hardly give a sense of support to those who are work- ing to suppress this evil. He mays that while there might be “mills and mines and other places, where children work, which are net preperly inspected, and several states which do not have sufficiently strict child - laber laws,” the largest part of the country have “what evervome admits te Be prop- er child labor laws.” ‘The question is one of opinion ané degree.” “It is a guestion and a grave ques- tion, exactly as to the age a boy or girl should be allowed to g0 to work” ' ““These people (Who were working for child weifars) are enthusiastic about this matter; they think they are dsing the Lerd’s work and that anyene who doés not agree with them is an ally of the devil” ANNTE B.

The school doctor examined the child and found that she had tuberculosis. After a visit from the school nurke, the paremts consented to let the little one go to a sanatorium in the country. Here she had the right kind of food and plenty of fresh air night and day. At night she slept in a cozy bed out on the porch.
