WEMBER OF THE ASSOGIATED PRESS, WEEK ENDING JULY 23rd, 1921 11,276 WHAT TEXAS NEEDS. It is a bit interesting that those who have been engaged in the business of tarring and feathering those who have not been conducting themselves as it was believed that they should have cre- ated a sentiment that is considering the petitioning of the Texas legislature for a law dealing with~guch acts. It cannot be believed that Texag hasn't sufficient aws he present time for dealing with such cases if it really desires to. certainly be a strange situa- tien hasn't even though tarring ind feathering as such may not be speci- Seally mentioned But should the people of Texas so greatly wrought up over the ap- of tar and feathers, bad as ion is, when they make neo that much worse practiee It is not to be suppesed tarring and feathering is to he ap- is ‘certainly mueh milder king of life by masked bands w why be hat 3 Iynching that cases Involve ooting, burning at the stake. is aroused over this latest awlessness it should go the stance and have a houseclean- ether It is lynching or tar and indicates an unwillingness to the existing laws and®an effort the part af a certain number to set They undertake to impose rol upon the community er d even though that represents a berate violation of the law there is ous effort made to punish them. abide by on Texans may get a bit exclted r the tarri and feathering cases it . led as the logical out-| growth of that much werse practice of ntentionaily taking life as punishment an alleged crime without waiting for facts to be established or permit- ng th law 1o take its course.

Having been shown what Zoing on it is of course expected determined efforts should be made put a stop toit.

The bill carries an appropriation of a milllon and a half and will require that the state appro- priate an ameunt corresponding to what will be allotted to them. The bill has received censiderable op- position, not for the end that it is somght to obtain but fer the manner in which it is intended to employ the government's ryachinery. It has been balieved by many, and the sentiment volced by those who wero not found among the oppo- nents of the bill when the vote was taken that it was a service tbat should be um- dertaken by the gtates rather than by the federal government, and that it was pa- tarnallstio and socialistic. Sugh oppe- nents have declared that there was ne limit to which the federal govermment is great nesd of giving the preper amount of to the Infants of the country and to the mothers, and there are plenty of figures which go to show that this is not being dome. The need of protecting maternity and redue- ¥ is gufficiently impor- tant to get serigus considerstion. In fact it seems that it is guite s Wise that the federal government 1d. have B hand in that work gs to apprepriate funds to fight the cattle tick, the boll weevil and Wdisease among animals. CUBBING THE HEADLIGHTS, Althgngh it has experienced so many automobile accidents that the motor ve- hicle commissioner has called for a bet- ter emforcement of the laws, Massachu- setts has been a long time recognizing the importance of correcting the danger te highway travel that is involyed in the glaring headlights. In this respect Massachusetts is considerably behind its neighbors and the law Which has been adopted, and which goes into effect the middle of next month, shows that it hasg been impressed by the course followed In Connectient and other states. On the roads of Connecticut there will be found a marked difference in head- lights. There are those that are ex- ceedingly strong, those that are mild and those that are dim but the instances are few where the dazzllng headlights that used to make it impossfble for the drfver of the car going In the opposite direction to see through the glare and be sufe that he was guiding his car in a safe path are decldedly less numer- ous, Special lenses, properly pitched lights and shades which deflect the light to the roadbed are required by the state laws and are solving the bad headlight problem. Thers are still bright lights due to the higher candle power bulbs used but even With these strong lights there is not that glare that formerly ex- isted and it 1s possible to see past most of the headlizhts. An occasional ear from a state where there is mo headlight regnlation quickly shows the difference. Massachusetts in joining other states for the ending of this danger will find that it will net do away with its long list of auto accidents but it will nevertheless be a preventive measure that is bound to serve the meeds of increpseqy safety and a reform that will he greatly welcomed by all users of the highway. It will likewise mean the placing of the southern New FEngland states upon a uniform basis, which in view of the travel through and into ad- joining states will decrease the difficul- ties, CONNECTICUT'S CHANCES, For a long time efforts have been made to arouse a greater interest in for- estry for the purpose of meeting thej demands and at the same time making better use of available land. That It has served to awaken some to the op- portunities is evidenced by reforestation efforts but when forestry experts in the state point to the fact that Connectlcut goends $3,000,000 a year freight on lumber that is shipped into the state from the Pacific and southern states they furnish another view of the matter which is bound to get consideration, It ig with lumber the same as Rt Is with foedstuffs Connecticut doesn’t be- gin to supply the needs of its people. This i# not rated as an agricultural state but Connecticut comes far from ap- proaching the point Where it can be sald | that it makes full mse of the acreage that conld be devoted to the raising of crops whether these crops involve food- stuffs, fruit or lumber. ‘While Connecticut is spending three million on freight for lumber it is spend- ing $190,000,000 out of the stata for food and the regrettable thing is that it is going backward ggriculturally. Waile the state may net be able to raise all tha tit needs It certainly can do much hetter than it is dqing. There is enough idle land for vrodueing more food, more sheep, more pork and more lumber. Tt is even maintained that if its resources were properly develoved that the state could sunply its lumber needs in the next half century. It is unfortunate that greater efforts are not made to utilize the idle aeres which are now producing little or moth- ing. ‘There is certainly need fer the calling of attention to these matters and the presentation of facts and figures for the disclosure of the existing situatien. Perhaps it Is to be expected that our greatest development must be expected in industrial undertakings but there is reason why efforts in other directions should be making progress instead of going backward. Every improvement in agriculture and reforestation will not only benefit those Involved but the em- tire state, EDITORIAL NOTESR, The high cest of rum runming is one of the things to which some people are likely to give more thought for a few days. The result of the international colloge track and field meet doésn’t indicate any trouble with the New England ability, training or soil.

Yet they'll take no blame for such conditions, That five million dellar eut in ex- penses for the railroads through the re- duction of officers’ salaries will not be very mueh as railroad expemses go but would not be asked to go if legislation along this line was to be eneonraged.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Our Fire Department. Mr. Efitor: 1¢ there is one department of eur Mty ef which our citizens should feel proud, it is our fire department. By this I mean the personmel and not the equipment. The showinz of Chief Stan- ton and his men, considering the lack of tools te work with, is remarkable. One of the opponents of more apparatus saw fit to compare our department with that of eur neighbor, New London. In so do- ing he camouflaged the facts. In looking over the report of the city treasurar and of the fire chie® of New London for the last fiscal year, 1920, I find the following interesting” facts: The total appropriations for the New London fire department were $93,400 as compared to $50,745 for Norwich for the same year. This is equal to $1.85 for eacn $1 for Chief Stanton's men. Norwieh had $6.802.52 above salaries while New Lon- don had $78.467.25, a ratio of $1.00 for Norwich to $10.15 for New Londen. The average eost per machine fer shees, tubes’ zas, ete., in New Londen was$436.585. in Norwich it was $18.84. In Norwich the average cost per horse for forage, shoeing [ was $312.40. New London's new hose cost an even $5,000. While Norwich could buy none, although 5,000 feet of its total of 11,500 is from two to eleven years old, 4.000 feet from five to eleven years old and the balance from eleven te eighteen years old. Norwich's fuel cost $1,454.07 and New London paid $2,331.81 for heat. Norwich’s telephone bills amounted to £326.30, while New London’s was $504.76. Our 27 nien incurred a bilt of $138.76 for zas and electric, while New Tondon's men cost $1,672.99 for midnight oil. Laundry and bedding, ete., for 27 men in Norwich eost $147.85 while New Lendon paid the Columbia Towel and Supply Co. §$126 for towels alone. These figures are eited to show what Chief Stanton has done in the way of economy. and to prove that his réeeom- mendations are reasonable, It is safe to say that he is one ecity official who will not pad his recommendations to ab- normal size for the sake of getting part of them through. It does not take more than average intelligence to see the nec- essity of modern fire-fighting apparatus, and fire risk insurance rates are a big factor in getting new industries and held- ing old ‘ones. The Thamesville section contains mome of the largest industriar plants in the eity, and has no fire pro- tection mearer than Main street and West Main street, with a narow and congested thoroughfare to pass through. Métor ap- paratus should be located nearer than one mile from these plamts and resi- dences. A word abeut pumpers. New Londen has the fellowing pieces of apparatus: One Seagrave combination heok and lad- der truck amd ehemical, three Seagrave combination pumping epgines, hese ear- rier and chemical, one LaFrance combin- ation hose wagen and chemicals, one automobile hose wagon, forty gallon two- wheel chemical, twe autemobile squad wagons, all metoriged. Also one steam fire engine and one horse-drawn hook and lader, which have been econdemned. There ix net a- horse-drawn piece of ap- paratme in the serviee in New Londen. Given a chief like ours such apparatus ak New London has and it weuld be the best department im the eemntry. Lets do something for eur department. PROGRESS. Norwich, July 25, 1921. IN AMERICAN OBD iNCIDENTS WISTORY e —— CONSPIRACY OF “CITJZEN" GENET Probably the most disappointed man who ever came to out country from a foreign state with a minister's credentials was Edmond Charles Genet who was the first minister of the new Frdnch Repubiic te the United States, sent here in 1783. He bore no title, for titles had been abol- Isaed in his country, but came simply as Citizen Genet. Probably mueh bf his in- discretion upom his arrival in this country may be eredited to his yeath and inexperience, for he was only twenty- cight years at the time. ‘The country, when ihe arrived, had met forgotten the great debt of gratitude they owed to France for her assistance in the Revolution, se toat when Citizen Genet arrived in Charleston in April, 1793, his overland jouyrméy . was one unbroken ovation. took it all as a matter of | first plaece that he i ! norses met him as he approacted the city and galloped back to spread the news of the coming of this true son of liberty. The republican newspapers not enly took the side of Genet against the govern- ment, but they also attacked the char- acter of Washington most virulently. The Frenchman's gold flowed freely in ail channels where it could. breed corrun- tton, Disgusted, annoyed and alarmed at the marplot's power for misehief, Wash- ington at length determined to rid the eountray of his presence. To this end he sueceeded in obtaining from his cah- inet an assent te his wish for Genet's recall. The main charge made by Washington he had overstepped the bounds of public deceney. He fad seen the Little Sarah, a cagtured British merchantman nbw changed to a French privateer, down the Delaware and out to sea against the pro- test of Governor Miflin and Secretary of State Jefferson. _He had threateped to appeal from the president to the people. He had projected an invasion of Wlerida from South Carolina and Georgia, and a movement against |New England from Kentucky. Genet had written a dletaterial letter to Washington and had received a cold reply fram Jefferson to the efféct that it was not customary for arforeign diplomat to have correspondence with the presi- dent and that tfae preper ehannel through which such notes should pass was the secretary of state. These were some of the things in the comspiracy dfiarges against Genet, and when presented to the French govern- ment they ordered iis recall in January 1794. His sueessr, M. Faucheut arrived in Philadelphia in February 1794. When Genet took his departure from office he received congratulations, addresses of sympathy and othr marks of respect frem numerous public societles and in- dividuals. The ‘opposition” even regard- ed him as a martyr to the cause of lib- erty, Many of those who had at first favored his principles and his projects beeame disgusted at his course. The “Whiskey Insurrection” which Washington was called upon to suppress during the latter Part of the year 1794 was one of the legitimate results of Genet's machina- tions. The dismissed minister never re- turned to France, for the Girondist party that had sent him lost control of the government and he feared the guillotine should he return. He became an Ameri. ean citizen, married a daughter of Gev- ernor Clinton,.and settled on the Hudson, hecame a geciéntific farmer, and died there in 1834, (Tomerrow: Gur First Forelen Minister.) READ YOUR CHARACTER By Digby Phillips, Copyrighted 1921 The “Roman” Nose. 4 Such historical characters as Cagsar, Napoleon, Washington, Sherman, Dewey, Lee, Lineoln and Grant had “Roman” noses. Does not that give yeu a clue teo those traits of character which this fea- ture indicates? This shape of nese indicates a great many things, but if you ask what the outstanding message of it is, i t n - s domina- tion, It indieates in .addition to such qualities as physical energy, courage, power, persistence, impatience and ag- Bressiveness. It is, in short, the signal of virtually all those qualities of temi- perament and charaeter that men look for in their leaders. Of course, a man's success as a leader depends upon a gréat many other things than this tendency or desire to dominate. The “Roman” nose indicates only the will or tendency to leadership and 2 lim. ited number of qualifications. In judg- ing the man you must modify or amend the story of his “Roman” neee according to other characteristics. In previous articles it has been stated thet blue and gray eyes indicate the pioneer spirit, quick thought and a de. gree of impatience, while brown eyes are signals of conservatism, mental intensi- ty, patience and strong emotion. Thus, if your “Roman-nosed” leader has the former, he is likely to be such by virtue of his quick thought, his readiness to grasp the fleeting moment of oppor- tunity and impatience of opposition. But if he has brown eves. you read in the not so impatient course and even entertaiped the idea |after all and that he helds his following that he would experience little trouble | through his care and sem in having America deciare war against |dealing with it, hie countiy's enemies. nd judgment in through his anppeal to human nature and emotions and through ‘When Genet reached Philadelphia, how- | a larger degree of patience in surmeunt. ever, he underwent his first shock in his | ing his obstacles. first interview witfa the president.
