It & a working formu- la preserving the principle of American valuation as set out in the Fordney biil and the flexibility plan recommended by the president. Under the Comnecticul [vlan, the rates would be fixed and lsvied upon an Amerlcan valuation, but the president would be given power, acting probably through the tariff commission, to vary the rates in case of hardship elther to the manufacturers. the import- ers, or the consumers. The president might also be given power under certain circumstances to change the plan of val- uation. It has the advantage of flexi- bility, without starting with an abject surrender to the German manufactur and his partner, the American importer. Mr. Bullard was asked if there was not some opposition to American valuation on the part of mercnants. “There is” he replled, “but the Connecticut merchants have shown a handsome spirit. While they disagreed with the Americart valu- ation plan in certain aspects, they gen- erally took the view that a large part of their profits came from the employes and stockholders of Connecticut factori They recognize that they are in an in- dustrial state, and they can only prosper in the long run when our factories pros- .

NORWICH TOWN Dr. Franklin S. Wilcox, superintend- ent of Norwich state hospital, was the speaker at the April meeting of the Men's League, Monday evening in the First Congregational chapel. President Allen. Latham presided. During the bus- iness session which preceded the ad- dress, the report of the secretary and treasurer, Dr. Charles H. Lamb. was read and approved. Upon motion of Herbert L. Yerrington, John Dawson was voted a member of the league. Those afforded the opportunity of hear- ing Dr. Wilcox, who was an entertain- ing speaker, derived much information along his line of work at the hospital. Dr. Wilcox said in substance: In con- sidering the construction of the Norwich State Hospital which was started In 1903, the first thing to think of was to find a location where water, rail- road and trolley service was accessi- ble. Among the first buildings to be erected were the power house, laundry and what is known as the North and South A buildings. From time to time other buildings have been erected, mak- ing the property worth one and ome- million dollars, at a low figure. The hospital is exempt from taxation. As more heat is nneded there is a desire to develop the power plant. We have one of the finest equipped laundries that can be found and the course of a week turns out from 35,000 to 50,000 gar- ments. Blankets are purchased by the five hundred at a time as we want to keep every individual warm. At pres- ent 1,591 patients are being cared for. There as 215 employes, the list of at- tendants being increased all the while. When patiets are recelved they are thoroughly looked over and given the attention needed. The X-ray and op- erating_room is considered among the best. To make a most thorough exam- ination we X-ray every part of the body. During March 222 X-ray plctures were made at this institution. While it Is a misfortune, it is no disgrace to become insane. A person's chance is about one in two hundred and fifty; but having had one attack, the chamoe would be about one in one hundred. Cases of in- sanity are not all due to inheritance; quite the contrary. Many of the cases may be acquired; among the most fre- quent are immoral conduct, business troubles, mental depression, excess of hard work, etc. Insanity varles, al- hough in time the proper treatment is administered. ~ This institution is in good standing.
