It is true, as our correspondent pointed out, that East Haven is the only close-in suburb' of New Haven that does not now have all- night transportation srevice. Fair Haven and Westvillo have hud sueli service for a great many years. Hamdon and West Haven have also been favored and that is one of the reasons, undoubtedly, for the phenomenal growtli of those two communities. Many workers would choose to buy or build in En.st Haven if transportation were available from midniR'ht until early morning. Hourly service b.v' bus from the New Haven Green to the East Haven Green ought not b.c hard to jirovide, or too ccislly, and the direct benefit to our town would bo very large. Let's get behind this movement for all-night transporjation and see if it cannot be made po.ssible when the Connectiuiit company starts using bu.sses out this way.

SCHOOLS STUDY TOWN PLANNING One of the important jobs of the public school is to stimulate each student to beeoine an active and interested citizen in his com- munity. Raymond Lumley, supervisor of tlie Bureau of Youth Ser- •viees in the State Department of Education, -writes interestingly in tlie current issue of Conneotieut Progress, publislied by State Devel- opment,, Commissipn,, upon this theme. He spates that the willingness of Couiicetfdut schools to participate in community planning is shown by the actnities eaiiied on m many oL llie sehools in tliis state. ^ 'lie cites-lhe case of West llaitfoid \vhcie the superintendent 61' solio'blf'devotdrt a, seiies of seventeen faculty meetings to tlic study of town government WestHarttoid functions under the Town Man- ager plan, and the town manager and each depailnient head had nn oppoitumty to explain,Ins pjitioulai function and to show the rela- tionship of his.offlee to the total plan of the town. The faculty of the \y'est''Hartford school system thus gained, a better understanding of 'its town government and became bettor qualified to present the pro- blems of the town to tlic students. Prof. Lumley also tells of woric done by students in,the East Haven High school who made a survey of recrcational:.faciIities for teen-agers and adults with tlio result tliat tire study came to tlio at- tention of tlie proper authorities who recommended tlio hiring of a recreational director. These are suggestiojis which could well be taken up by other schools. DON'T BE A "GROWSER" Harr,y Palkoff, live-wire secretary of tlic new organization of business and professional men, the East Haven Business Association, is to be congratulated tor tlie clever "Secretary's Report" wliicli lie prepared and mailed out to membershiii the past week in' miincci- graphed form. "Don't Be A Grow.ser" is the heynotc of iiis report, and to add emphasis, he reproduced upon tlie report one of <liiiim,v liatlo's poii- ular cartoons "Tliej-'ll Do It Every Time." It's a befcu'c and after picture, and the first panel depicts a tew citizens giving tlic stock i-easons why they cannot atteuil a coiuniunity meeting to solve eoin- raunit.v iiroblcins. 'The second panel depicts the same citizens gallier- ed in tlm barber shop listening to "beef a !u Croaiis", compbiiuiiif.'. criticising, and lamteiiting what liad been done or not, done at llic meeting tliey didn't have time to attend. The cartoon is a true statement of fact of soinetliiug that is common to every community. Those who stay awa.v from town niid civic meetings are the ones who "groan" and "beef" the loiidcsl over what i.s or Ts not accomplished. No ooinmunit.v can get ver,v fur toward progress when citizens, who ouglit to be interested eiioiigli to attend meetings wh^u matters vital to tlieinselves and their Ye Olde Time Mmstrel Show Set ForMar. 29 'rhc South District Civic Im- provement Association is sponsor- ing Ye Old Time Minstrel Siiow, directed by Ben Hendricks, well known minstrel man, in the High school Auditorium on Flriday even- ing Marcli 29.

Every Encouragement Being Of- fered To Enable War Veterans To Obtain Their Diplomas. Hy Supt. W. K.

The President of the Council is F. I. Newton, secretary of the G & 0 Mfg. Co. of New IlaViiii, and its secretary is Milton 1'. Bradle.v of Branford, president of the Morris Plan Bank of Now Ha- ven. The School and Child Committee is headed hy Albert A. Piivclis, director ot School Health and Piiysical Education in tlie New Ha- ven schools. The Safety Council has been set up to work in tlie interest of safety in New Haven, West Haven, Kast Haven, Ilamden, Wood- bridge, Orange, Nortli Haven and Branford. Under a grant of ;ii2,.500 from tlie New Haven Foundation, tlio Safet}' Council's executive offices liave been able to move into larger and more convenient (juarters in the Malley Building at 902 Chapel street, New Haven. Here two rooms will b set apart for a Safety Museuin where protection equipment will be on display, Scliool groups will be invited to visit the museum. An e.ttensivo file of re- search material is being collected under tlie direction of Harry H. l''urniss. . The .work of tlie Safety Conneil is a vital one, and one whidi deserves the support of all citizens. Its work is carried on ia several divisions—Industry, Public Safety, Hotne, AVoraeu's Activities, and School and Child. The Council is allied with the National Safety Council, which has long promoted safety throughout the country is consistently combatting the rising tide of accidents, particularly those in traffic, in the home and in iiidustrj'. An interesting publication "New Haven Safety C r i e r " Ls p u b - lished monthly by the New Haven Council. Sup, ot Schools William E. Gillls. who writes firequnntly on scliool matters as they .affect the general public, has prepared this very Interesting artical (•.•on- jernlng the .services of the High school to ' the returned war veteran. He tells of opportuni-- ties open to local boys who di) not wish to return to the scliool cla.s.sroom, but do want the high school diploma. Only a fev/ local veterans' have to re.sume their high to all of the veterans, former stu- \ dents ot tlie high .scliool, .scattered! in various piirts ot the world. This' referred to them as: "Boys then,' now men". Such a statement is very true and because of it a problem! arises concerning completi-on of a high school education which was{j.|,^|^|^p|j interrupted by the war. , . , , , , A number ot the students ^,y,„'-^^'>o\ -^m^. Hom^ \y^y<i <:omt h^^V. entered the service had not finish-ifor » lew d.ays and then dropped ed their high .school education, out. One of the main reasons is Most ot this group were near the [that the high -school regulations completion of the four year course;are drawn up for young people of and needed to do only a little more .high school age who need much di- work In order to qualify for the rection and regimontaU(jn. Such re- diploma. On the surface it would gulations do not fit the returning seem to be an easy matter for the veterans who are three or four veterans to return, make up the'years older than the others actually necessary work, and receive the and many years older in ex diploma which is so important in Problem Of Adjustment Is Seri- ous One But Is Being' Met Through Mutual Cooperation. , many ways There are factors which make the problem a little more complicated than that, however. Some of the veterans returned at a time when it was inconvenient to pick up the work where they left off. In a large community where perience. It is ditticult for them to settle down to routine after the ex- periences they have gone through. Benig in daily contact with large numbers of pupils from four to ten years younger than they takes a lot of adjusting. It has been too much of a problem for many, who there are many veterans special, l^ave tried it and has been the rea- classes can be set up and the need son for others not wanting to make met. In a smaller town where there are only a few veterans wishing to return to school it Is difficult to tit them Into the program. the attempt. Because of the difficulty men- tioned above other means are being taken so as to allow the veterans an opportunity to complete their high scliool credits. Tlie New Haven Teachers Oollege Is conducting cour.ses v/lilcb may help those men- tioned and also those who need re- fresher courses before entering college.'I'herc.is ai.so the plan of the State Department ot Education whereby equivalency examinations are held so that a veteran who does not wish to complete his schooling in the classroom may study and take an examination which will give him the equivalent of a high .school education and this will entitle him to hl,s school diploma. This will be helpful to many of the local boys who 'do not wish to return to the classroom but who do want the hlgji school diploma. I'he next examination to be given is to be in the Hall of the Hou.se at the State Capitol In Hart- ford at 0:00 A, M. on March 0th. This Is a general comprehensive test covering four fields: English Social , Studies, Mathematics and Science. Application forma f^ those interested may be obtained at the office of the high school principal, Mr. Fagerstrom. No fee Is charged for war veterans. Applica- tions can be accepted after March 2nd.

'I 'herc.is ai.so the plan of the State Depar tment ot Education whereby equivalency examinations are held so t h a t a veteran who does not wish to complete his schooling in the classroom may study and take an examination which will give him the equivalent of a high .school education and this will entit le him to hl,s school diploma.

It by spending twenty-five per­cent of all their time and rabney tho people now living could prevent a major war. It would be vastly chcapor than fighting one. But hundreds of millions of people haven't any money, nor even en-ought foodl Are they therefore to have 1)0 share, no rcsponslbily Ui this glorious projecty of world sal­vation? But they wore born to have a part. Tliefr present degrada­tion Is due In a large measure to the fact that their loaders and rulers have allowed Ihcni to see themselves as they really are, the "Trustees of Civilization."

Editor Stevens: In a recent Issue or your pnpor I was' very Itiueh pleased to note that In reportlliE the death of Mr, Louis Loyerzapf you stated that he lived In "The Annex".*

the time of the Civil War. Forefather;* Day in Plymouth began to be cclcbrat<;d near the time of the llcvolution, but' lor Vcarj it was only a local fcJtivity.

George Willison'j "Saintt and Strangers" takes the Pilgrim Fathers out of the piste-hoard dummy class and makes them Into (Icsh-aml-blood people, with human aspir.-i-tioris and weaknesses. He adds a lot to common schoolbook knowledge, and he cx-

(ijiilKii; I' wn.i,is<i<j Contrary to popular belief, says Mr. Willison, not all of those who landed on the Mayflower came to find freedom for their religious beliefs. It is a pleasing faric) ,_ but the Pil­grims would have been the first to deny it in the name of truth. Actually, only 41 of the 11)2 passengers were concerned with separate religious bcticfst the great majority sverc good mcmbcra of the Church of England. The "Saints" of Nfr. Willison's title-refer to-the first group: the "Stran­gers" 10 the rcrtiaining men and women who I'oined the voyage. Curiously enough, it is aiiiong the "strangers" one finds the three Pilgrims who, thanks,to Longfellow, have enjoyed the greatest fame—Mylcs Staivlish, John Aldcn and Prlscilla Mullins.

• Don't confuse the Pilgrims with their Puritan neighbors of Boston and their laws against "gay apparel," says Mr. Willison. The Pilgrims

liked color, and it was only on the Sabbath that they dressed in blacks and grays. Many of them had large and varied ward­robes. That of Huling Elder William Brewster, one of the most exemplary of the "saints," for example, included "a red cap, a wliito cap, a quilted cap, a lace cap, a violet coat and one pair of green trousers."

The Ma'yflower passengers had one bond in common, however. All were lower-class, j "from the cottages and not the castles of . England." They were of the common pco-(

pic and in conscious revolt against the so-called aristocratic principles! a, fact which seems to have escaped some of their descendants with

their claims uf "blue hlm]d."

The human votce, ttirough the .•ipoken word, tells many things, about us, onehas only to listen, and we know pretty well the-nature ot the man, his brain and his charac­ter, his percentage ot Inward vision, his initiative, the degree of height and depth and width pof his mental conception. A great Teacher of Oratory, formerly a Oollego President, and a Doctor of Divini­ty, once saith "Give me a Class ot students in Public Speaking and I can tell you after their first lesson In Elocution on a prose selection, the nature arid duality of each student, his brain and his charac­ter." I could not got it, at that time, but as the years roll on, I have learned the great truth, which ho emphasized theu, it is posltlvly so. Some times It does not even re­quire a lesson in Elocution to dis­cover this. Even to liear a porson speak from a platfonn, one

While the Church Is seething with a Zeal; let it be en­graved upon our hea.Tts that If the Social Gospel, over shadows the Spiritual call, then we have no Church, but just another "Club" and the woods are full of clubs or cliques. The Spiritual must come first, after that the Social, it we reverse the order, then we have some thing,-that God despises. .

• Radicalism By GEORGE S.BEHSOM

P»Eld>nl of HatJins Colltge Searcy. Arhatvtos

UNDOUHTEDLY Karl MHrx, f.ilhcr of Comnumism, hftd a noble punuisp. He ninicil lo nOicvc Uio will-Ill's oppressed pcoplo, lo cor­rect injustices .iiid gd rid of pov-rrly. Tli.1t would bo (Inc. There is nteoluU'ly notliincr wrong with n pl.-ilform Ihut flatly siimiorls vvli.-il's riRht nnd ovposes wlinl's wroiiR. Tho next step is geltiiip: cveryiiody to IIRTCO on what's right and wh.it's wrong.

Followers of the profound Mnrx didn't nil sec cyc-lo-cye with him nflev he left first-base. He wns obliged lo "run out" on tlie First

'Inlernntionnlc and disband it be­cause it was beiuR uscdby n Ranp of nifllans, more bent on wrcckinB -what WHS in slpht than on build­ing a new social order aecordinp to a noble plan. The loader nnd his followers were not of the same calibre.

Convcrtu to Greed

SETTING out on reform that required chaiiKinc the motives

of many people, MaVN recinitcd followers without changing their motives. Selfish intentions can be nnistercd under a banner ot lofty aims. Already this year news wires have curried a story about lenders In the Communist move-incnl addrcssinR InrRp audiences of worltinc men, "whooplnir il up" for slrilios.

II Is not, that Labor, consUlcred broadly, is destructive in charac­ter or shot IliroUEli with Com­munistic ideas. It's not true. II I'j true however that workiiiij peo­ple are numerous nnd therefore a •inwcrful segment of American

ioclcly. People who want to over­throw the only system on earth that gives n workinB man n' chance arc very wise to ask the workers' help, s It can't be done without them. . ,

CoveloUR COMMUNISM has Epitlemic failed exactly as often

as it has been tried, and Karl Matx has been dead more than sixty years. This doc­trine of "tear down In haste and rebuild nt lelsurc'Mias been tried on American soil. Time after time each experiment, nt having everything in common, comes down ot Its own poison nnd dies or relapses into * n dictatorship. Communism is a politicnt disease.

Russia is called n Communistic nation but il is far fi;om It. Tho government set out in that direc­tion once, broke down properly lines, degraded the family to bnudy level, overthrew tho church, rejected God nnd bogged down In abject poverty. Now it Is being run by a niinorily parly, made up of some 1(% <if the citizens, nnd nobody else can even vote, A' sorry 'situation they have.

Under n dictatorship Russln In doing a lilUo betlor than It did under Communism but still i.s nothing to brag about. Russian wages are not more than a third ns high as those in America. If the average Uussinn farmer should visit the average Anierican farmer he would think he was in a king's palace. There is a cure for this •plague and it is no mys­tery. It lies in obedience to God.

First Semester Roll Of Honor

Is Announced

Garden Notes Sponsored bj/ Branjord Qarden Club Mrs. M. D. Stanlfty, Correspondent

I have a little pussy, And her coat is silver grey; She lives in a great wide meadow And she never runs av;ay. She always Is a pussy She'll never be a cat Because she's a pussy willow Now what do you think ol thatl

The regular meeting of the Gar­den Club was held on Friday, March 1st, at 3 P.M. at the home ot Mrs. Samuel A. Qrlswold. Mrs. Donald Sawtelle, president, presided. Sa­lute to the flag was led by Miss Zachcr. Reports of Executive Board meeting held on Wednesday, Feb­ruary 27th at the home of Mrs. Sawtelle, and the regular meeting, February 8th, >vas read by Mrs. Stanley, secretary pro-tem.

Voted that the recommendation of tho Executive Board to send a representative to the Rhode Island Work Shop not be accepted.

Voted to send a representative. Instead to the Conn. College for Conservation course of two weeks, sponsored by the Conn. Garden Clubs and expenses defrayed by the club. This course Is limited to 35 members.

Mrs. Grlswold read an interest­ing letter from Mrs. Marlln (pub­lished later). The speaker ot the afternoon, Mrs. William Achtmey-cr ot Orange, was Introduced by Miss Zacher, chairman ot program committee.

Mrs. Achtmeyer gave a most in-leresting and instructive talk on the subject, "House Plants."

To be successful with your house plants .you must follow deflnlte rules. Be careful about soil—1-3 loam, 1-3 manure and 1-3 sand Is a good plan to follow. Water Is very Important, nothing as good as rain water—always use tepid water, Fresh air—always important. Cul­tivate regularly roots of plants, Cleanliness—once a month make Ivory suds and duck your plants— then spray. Never use oil prepara­tions to make the leaves shiny. Trim carefully and pinch back plants regularly. In summer, put all plants out of doors—Trim them back, feed and then forget them, and give them a needed rest.

Mrs. Achtmeyer exhibited many lovely plants, axalla, leaf plants, victory ivy, patience, cactus or many varieties, begonias, excep­tionally choice, spider plant, gar­denia and many others.

Mrs. Grlswold and Mrs. Beers also showed many unusual plants. Mrs. Beers calla-bcgoiila especially lovely.

Tea was served. Mrs. ^awtclle and Miss Zacher presided at an attractive decofatcd tea table with lovely white and green centerpiece,

Several menibers purchased plants from Mrs. Achtmeyer. I bought a lovely leaf plant—at this writing it is alive and seems hap­py-

Letter from Mrs. Marlln from Mission Inn, Riverside, Cafif. fol­lows;

"Well here I am at the Mission Inn, the Spanish dream castle I've heard so much about. From the moment I entered the doors and passed the salutation Entre es su casa, amigo. (Enter, friend this Is your house.) I felt at home Otiat word jised so Ireeljr bjr

CalUornlans certainly applies to this famous Inn, there is absolu tely no place like it In the world. It's architecture Is a combination of California Mission, Spanliih, Mexican and Oriental. Its almos pliere is very international espec­ially in Its collections of Interest­ing things from far countries. The bells and crosses collected by Mr. Miller, master ot the Inn, are the finest to be found anywhere. The Cloister Music Boom resembles the gi:eat hall ot a Spanish castle, llere dally fine organ concerts are given. I t is hard to believe the mission was not once a mission build over one hundred years ago, but it Is only "Mission Style." The oldest portion Is the abode In the court, over sixty years old. The winding corridors, the life size wax figures and antique images and other fea­tures Including the brilliant Ma­caws, Joseph and Napoleon, are very unlike the modern hostelry of today. The guest rooms ot course have all up to date comforts, but tho historical a'tlnosphere is fac-clnablng.

The Presidential Suite lias really been used by presidents and many famous authors and musicians come here for rest and work. The speciality ot the Inn however Is brides, with grooms on tl^e side of course. Many hundred bridal cou­ples have plighted their troth - In the St. Cecelia Chapel, the Carrie Jacobs-Bond Room and the Al-hambra MIrador but the most beautiful place ot all Is the cha­pel named tor St. Francis of Assist and dedicated as an International Shrine for aviators. I t seems on account ot his love for birds St. Francis Is considered the patron ot those who fly. Many blrdmen and their brides have passed thru the impressive portal ot the Chapel to "Happy Landings" beyond. The gold marriage altar and the Tif­fany windows are beyond my de­scription. You simply must see them and the Famous Fliers' Wall and aviation collections as well.

The Galerla nearby has some fine paintings and the Oriental rooms are full of strange and beau­tiful things from China and Ja­pan. The enormous Budda from a temple In Japan Is especially im­pressive. "The Dolls and Animals of the World" fascinated both old and young. The International Ro­tunda is another unusual part ot the Inn with Its circular stairw.ay and it.s shields of many countries.

Usually one dirics out of-doors In the Spanish Patio, very lovely with tropical foliage iValms ind pictur­esque fountain. 'There Is a great deal more to tell'ot this marvelous Inn, but I must'"close now. I hope the chimes play "At the end of a Perfect Day" when we leave. Car­rie Jacobs Bond wrote It here, you know. ,

WIRING T F you are _(>Iawii'ag to buy or tuild.a house or •*- remodel an old one, you ought to concern your­self considerably about the electric wiring system. You sliould by all means avoid making the mistake so many people in the past have made in their failure to provide enough circuits and suiBcienc outlets to provide for the proper use of electrical labor-saving appliances.

We icnow of many cases where our customers could not use appliances without overloading the circuits. We Icnow of countless inscinces where homes are wired only for lighting and small ap­pliances and cannot use the large appliances. There are many, many homes where the proper use of appliances is entirely prevented because there arc no outlets located •where the appliance^ are needed. Needless to say little, if any, planning was done when the wiring in these houses was installed.

Adequate Wiring Means Better Electric Service

Just think of the many electrical helps that arc so commonplace and the new ones that will be available in the near fumrc. A new era of electrical living is before us and every home should he able to take full advantage of electric service for the promotion of health, convenience and happiness. Adequate wiring paves the ,

. way toward this goal.

A cook gained twenty pounds In two months after lier employment began. She was a big woman when she started, so the addition was pure excess and should have been taxed at 95 percent.

Diaper dlctotors education was commenced Sunday when his sister undertook to read the funnies to lilm. After each sheet he gave it a floating toss to tho floor, after a lialf dozen colored pages settled at liielr feet his motlner told him to quit throwing them on the floor. "They have to go on the rug." he answered. At whicli time the family grinned sheeptshiy because never in, their lives have they folded a newfipaper and left it anywhere ex­cept at their feet.

Connecticut's, critical housing shortage, already apparent to any­one wlio is seeking living quarters, is emphasized graphically by latest federal statistics which shows tliat the volume ot home constructlbn in. the state plummeted tram 14,900 units In 1941 to a mere 1,2.00 in 1914 aulecrcaso of 92'.pei-cent.. ' '

The tremendous drop In con­struction explains why tho states has a pent-up demand . for new houses that keep the building in­dustry busy for years, sal?l Arnold Mlchelson, vice-president of Min­neapolis-Honeywell Regulator Com­pany, .in commenting on the situa­tion. Mr. Miriielson recently com­pleted a study of. the national housing shortage.

United States Labor Department records show tho number ot private and public housing units construct' ed in Connecticut in 1941 was 14,900 That dropped to 11,500 in 1942; to 5,100 in 1943 and 1.200 in 1944. Of flclal figures for 1945 are not yel available, but the volume last year

. Rotarians Mark 41st Anniversary

East Haven's ,Uolajy club, now In Ita seventh year Joined the past week with the thousands of other clubs throughout the world that go tx> miiko.up Rotary International in the observance Qt the 41st an­niversary or the foundlnB of the first Rdtary club on February 23, 1905,

Tlie first club- Was formed In Chicago Ijy' Paul P. Harris ft lawyer, who suggested the form of organization to o. few friends and with them instituted the club. Tlirec yeairs later the second Rotary club was formed In San FrandSoo, and 1910 there were sfacteen dubs whoso representatives met In Chicago that year for the first Rotary convention. At that conven­tion the National Association of Rotary clubs was formed. • Two years later, to provide charters for Rotary clubs In Canada, Ireland and England, the: International As­sociation of Rotary clubs was formed, and In 1922 this name was shortened to Rotary International.

Tlie lObJccts ot Rotary are to en­courage and, foster the Ideal of sorvlce as a basis of worthy en­terprise and, In particular, to en­courage and foister:

l.The development, of dfcqualn-'

tancc a.f an opportunity for service; 2. High ethical standards In

business and professions; the re­cognition of the worthlnes,? ot all useful occupations; and the dlfe-nlfylng, by each Rotarlan of his oc­cupation as an opportunity to serve society) '

3. The application of the Ideal of service byevdry Rotarlan to his personal, business and oomtnunlty life;

4. The advancement of Inter­national understanding, good will, and peace through a world fellow­ship of business and professional men united Ui the Ideal of service.

On January 28, 1040, there were 8,638 Rotary Clubs with a member­ship of 250,385 Rotarians. On that date, there were 3,581 Clubs hi the United States, 738 In Latin America 834 in Great Britain and Ireland, 209 In Canada, and 576 In other parts of the world. Twenty-one of thesei Clubs, with. 445 mcmbora, arc Inactive in war-atfectcd countries.

Wherever Rotary Clubs arc lo­cated—In the U. S. A. or the Union of South Africa, In Sweden pr Switzerland, In China or Chile, In any of 66 countries and geographi­cal jeglons-;-the activities of Rotary Clubs arc pretty much the same.

STRICTLY LOCAL PREVUES. VIEWS AND REVIEWS

BY PAUL H. STEVENS

A YEAR AND A HALF OLD

•\Vil,li Ibis issue THE NKWS rcaolios Jinotlier milestone. This is Vol. 1—No, 2« of the Homo Newspiipcr ot a Busy Town, TlltS NKWS is now a your ami u hull' old,

A yciir and n liiilf is not loiiR (is,time ninrelics on, but. it lius been long enou},'li Tor THE NEWS to win n, iilanoc in tlio thoiLSiuid homes it now visits ciicli weel( in Eiist Haven and vicinity.

Editing THE NKAVS and'building its advertising columns has been a eenninc pleasurp, AVc have made many friends and have come to know our iioiglibors of this and surrouiidini;; communities a great deal better. More tlum ever have wo come to realize that East Haven is a migbly nice place in which to live. AVe hope that in its first year and a half THE NEWS lias been helpful in btiilding and promoting a better community spirit, because that has been one of its chief aims and ob.icctives.

Those first few reader,s who read our opening statement on Sep.' 14, 19'14, when THE NEWS made its initial bow. to the people of East Haven, will pardon us if we repeat again a paragraph wliich stated our "platform": "THE EAST HAVEN NEWS hopes to have a part iu our town's program of progress by serving as a medium Cor the exchange of ideas, for the promotion of projects beucficial to I ho town, for the creating of spirit of cooperation and cohesion among all our people, and for the development of the conunon good, AVc will have no part in petty polities, in special privilege, or in_ that which will benefit any individual at the expense of the community,"

' We feci it is well every now and then to reaffirm that "plat­

form". We do so now, ' i This spring we arc entering upon a period of progress. What ^ •c

do as a, community now will have tremehdons effect npon the future of Bast Haven, Our Community spirit, our pride in ourtown, is de­veloping. There Iiave been accomplishments in cooperation of which all of us are proud. It is this spirit that will put East Havcn'and our pride in East Haven, above our personal and selfish interests.

The post wnr period has been one of expansion here. New bnsuiesscs have been launched and others are soon to be. Many ijf those have been launched by returned service men. As a community We shoidd strive to give these new enterprises encouragement, A busy, thriving shopping center, makes for a bettor and more prosperous town.

Our town has many objectives that should bo kept constantly in view and stiived ior. Wo want oui own Post Office Hnildiug, We need a Bank. A Sewer System ib a No 1 project on our neenda of progress. More'homes are vitally needed and there is room for them. The towii fpquires-better roadsj nbtably a new pavement for Main street and'a 'new pavcmeat to Cos.ey Boaoli, We should havo,.a town-Qwnc'd'hatliijigsijeach so^nc^^:hei•c'.^ll)n^ tfie^sliore Jiont. All^thc^jj, and

—other obj(iclivts'can be nttu'iiioa, Bas't Haveii will be tiiDT-own we want'it to be, ifttU of us, instead of working at cioss pnrpoi.es in our community affaiis, learn moip about eoopeiation, and Ube a little moro,"teairi work" .in tlie various phases of our community life to­gether.

We hope that THE NBAVS will have u part in developing the spirit which is so necessary if we are to progress. AVe thank oin-constituents for the support they have given THE NEWS during its period of infancy, AVe look for their contiunod support. AVe have not sought to inimitatc nor serve as a substitute for the daily city news­papers. They are essential in evoiy home. But, so too, we believe, is the home town weekly, provided, of course, that it proves tvorthy,

THE BED CROSS; PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

The organization of the American Red Cross is sixty-five years old. During the Civil AA ir, Clara Barton, famous for her humantari-anism worked for the relict of wounded soldiers. This finally led to the organization of the American Rod Cross Society in 1881. AVc know the ideals of this group. In times of stress and strain civilian;; have been helped wlieii their homes have been wrecked and their lives threatened by various disasters. Soldiers on the battlefronts tlirougli-out the ycum have been ministered to by Red Cross nurses and work­ers. Their families have been given help through funds raised by the Red Cross, • ^ ji i

At the present time various criticisms are coming forth regard­ing the work of this organization. It is a human iiistil^utiou founded bv people and administered 'by people in the service of their fcUow-nifin. Try as you will no human institution can be made eiitn-ely per­fect and there may be flaivs in various points of the Red Cross Pro-grain, However, let ns recognize the fact that the aims of the organi­zation arc high—the scope it covers is vast and the good it has done is unquestionable. Any organization, ,which can live and grow as the American Red Cross has, muiit be a good one, AVe must have faitli ni it 's aims and recognize the good it does lest one of the greatest humaiutarian institutions of the past sixty-five years bo harmed. Let us, therefore, recognize tlie great work the American Red Cross has done in. the past—that it is doing today and that it will do in the future. Our help will .spur it on,

Chamber Of Commorco Onicial Tells Business People They Should Weigh Donations Carefully

Merchant,'; and olhcr.s should in-vesllgnte carefully and fully all ap­peals for funds before making con­tributions according to remarks ot Vlnpciit M, Reynolds, manager of the public relations department of the riew Haven Chamber of Commerce, before tlie East Haven Business Association in tho town hall Monday night, Reynolds was Introduced by President Janics J, Scanlbn.

'It Is characteristic of Ameri­cans," Reynolds stated, "to be gen­erous In responding to appeals for funds. This Is more particularly true of businessmen who believe their success is entirely derived from tho^communfty and that no-cordlngly' they shoiild support Its projects. , ;

'However, time and time again many projects that on the surface appear to be most philanthropic and worthy, under the cold light ot analysis iurn out In, many In­stances to bo not only unworthy of support; but are actually rackets. By banding together and through cooperative action, however, biisl-nessmen can to a great degree con­trol the unworthy and racket type of projects and In so doing are not only saving their own money, but are also rendering a service to the community,"

The, speaker then wont on to describe' the i efTectlve solicitations

progrnm of the New Haven Clinm-bcr and susgested that 'local busi­nessmen adopt a similar program for East Haven, He also pledged tho support and cooperation of the the New Haven.business orgnnten-' tlon.

In closing Reynolds stated; "It ' ls n sad fact that there are

some who will prey on tho gcnor-oslly of people for their own sel­fish ends, yet ns long as this does exist, tho answer Is to InvpsllBnto before Investing."

In a auostlon and answer pro-grani after the talk Mr, Reynolds answered a number of questions having to do with tho topic upon which he spoke.

During tho business session the members adopted a resolution that no members will advertise In any program that has not been ap­proved, and that It will be tho pol­icy or the iissoolntloii to ndvertlsb ns a unit In the future. This, It la expected, will mean the .savings of a great many dollars nn'nually to the local bu,shiess people.

New'members were welcomed to the association and 11 was nUso voted to provide the secretary with a mlmcpgrnph. The April irioetlng, It was announced, will be given over to a discussion of tho bank situation and a. speaker Is being obtnnled for that evening.

l)on Thomas, Of Bartlett Eoad Has Developed A Model Out­fit Covering 30 Feet Of Track.

Don. Thomas, of Bartlett road, rides an Interesting hobby-horse, but it isn't a horse al all. It's a complete trolley system, and It ha, taken him eight years to assemble It, In doing so he has had heaps of fun, and so has his nine year old son, Don. jr,

Don's mlnature railroad line is built In the Thomas' basemjont, where the trolley tracks extend a distance of 30 feet, going In. and around 15 loops, and there are bridges, trestles, waiting stations and all ot the paraphernalia that one connects with trolley transpor­tation. The scenery through which the little electric cars wheel their speedy way Is attractive and de­picts , counti-yside farms and vill­ages.

Mr Thomas began his hobby eight years ago when Don Jr,, was six moiith,s old. Every proud dad in those days saw to it that their sons had miniature railway sets and Don sr, got even more fi)n out of the set than did the youngster. Prom that day on as Don jr„ grew, so did the railway system.

The model Is built to the scale of Vt Inch to the foot and the cars run on O.guagc tracks They are powered by a motor and transformer. The making of the cars has taken a groat deal ot time, because, they have to be exact In every detail. Mr, Thomas has built models ot many different kinds of trolley cars,, including some from the old

Tho 8th annual model show of the New Haven Society of Model Railways opened last weekend In the Society's rooms over Cousins' Delicatessen at State and Court streets In New Haven and will continue this week end, and next.

Shore Line Electric Company, which ran between New Haven and Now Ijondon and has been out of busi­ness now since 1920, has models of the Chicago and North Shore trolley cans, and has also copied other trolleys from pictures.

His system is built upon a plat­form and operates along one side of the basement. The switches and other apparatus are mechanically operated, as are the cars, from tho house current, -He has eight com­plete model trolley cars In his col­lection, and some of these he re­fers to as "Donstroslties."

Don Is a member of the New Haven Model Railway Society which Is currently holding Its eighth an­nual exhibit and show In the society's rooms at State and Court streets.In New Haven. The society Is made up ot some .50 or more model railway enthusiasts, all ot whom, like Don Thomas, are de­votees of this fascinating hobby.

He has visited similar societies In Baltimore, Washington, Philadel­phia, New York and elsewhere but;

In order to create Interest locally In the Model Show, Mr, Thomas ar-, ranged a window display In Hol-combe's Drug Store at; Main and High street whUih showed some very Interesting models including the famous 3200 New Haven Railroad locomotive. Tho window display also contains a picture of a model railroad draw bridge over the Housatonlc River at Devon, This model, In the current down-town show, took three years to build, Is accurate in every detail and con tains 35,000 hand set rivets.
