”VIOLATING PUBLlc OBLIGATION
At the meeting of the Norw alk Hos-E
pitai Association, last evening. it was
voted to change the location of the
new hospital. From past representa-
tions the public had been led to be-!
lieve that the present location was
most ideal, but it now appears that
the contrary is the case Far more im-
portant than the site for the hospital
is the loss of public confidence whichIi
this action has accomplished. \‘\ iihout1
cooperation the success of any such?
public enterprise is an impossibility
The right to that seems to have beenI
forfeited by last night's action. Noi
plainer understanding between parties;
could be had than the assurance given ;
by hospital representatives, that tth
‘lunds were to be used to erect a hospi- ‘
ta! on the present site. That fact vlas‘
deemed sufficiently important to ha1olI
the President of the Norwalk Hospital 1
Association make the pledge to theI
public over his signature. I
This movement may be a wise one:
but it is our opinion that the publicII
isn‘t. easily fooled. The whole procedi
ure comes very near bordering on dis.
it would be considered quite»
l
honesty.
so, should an individual pursue such
tactics. Why should it be any less soI
on the part of a body of citizens, !
Goodness knows the Norwall: Hospi-E
tal needs all the friends it can muster,
e fear it‘s weilwishers who have I;
been parties to this violation of an ob-'
ligation to the public, have been mis-
erably misled.

NEW DRUGS FOR OLD
Since the federal law against the
sale and use of narcotic drugs went
into effect drug-users have been hard
put to it, in many cases, to obtain
enough of their customary dopes to
keep from torture, insanity or death.
Few have the means for treatment in
stituttons where these addictions are
treated there is room fer but a small
to the need.
I In two known instances and doubt-
less many undiscovered ones, strange
.. drugs have been substituted for the
, mutilation“. Several men in New
‘ {York bought from a man on the street
a brownish powder which he warran-
ted would take the place 'of their ac-
, customed heroin. "‘At brat," said one
; I of the surviving victims, “it acted
_' .‘right. Then it began to act wrong.
lilo was picked up by a hospitallam-
alnilan‘ce. barely 11111191110 max. His
companion died before the hospital
was reached. What this drug was 1111‘

Every possible effort will doubt-
less be made to introduce new drugs.
Unless the law can be enforced in
such a way as to cover them, dope
traific will not cease with the lives of
the poor nnfortunates now under nar-
cotic slave-bonds. Some of these will
be cured. Some will get their dope un-
til they die—or die without it. The in-
tention of the law is that it should
prevent the d'rug-shvery from clutch-
ing new victims. This cannot be iul1
tilled if unscrupulous dealers can
simply substitute new drugs for the
old.

RELIGIOUB FREEDOM AND THE
TRAIL.
A man in Newark. N. J., has lost his
job because he “hit the sawdust trail"
in Billy Sunday's tabernacle. He was
a newspaper man and the reason given
for his discharge was that by going
down the aisle in proctor his decision
to return to his church and to take up
again the religious duties which he
had ben neglecting he “made a joke
of his paper."
The man had been assigned to cov-
er the Sunday campaign. If he had fail-
ed in his assignment there would have
been reason for returning him to his
regular place as dramatic editor from;
which he had been taken to report the'
Sunday campaign. rll’ he had neglected
11 its work there might have been reason
for reprimand—possibly, had the neg- ‘0 study B1ouning ‘t 1“ a “3“ the ’9‘

MEXICO NEEDS JEWS.
Victortano Huerta, now sojourning
in our midst, may not seem to many
Americans 11 really authoritative
spokesman for Mexico's needs and her
ideals, but when he says that his har-
rassed country needs a million Jews
he’s talking business
He says the Jews will be welcome
in Mexico where there is no race pre-
judice, that there is a great future for
them there, both for their own side, in
a country whose resources are largely
undiscovered, and for the country's.
This is good talk. Whatever maybe
Ithe virtues of the Mexicans, they luck
to a great degree the clear-headed, per-
sistence which is charaCteristic of the
Jews. They lack their sound commer-
cial talent. The Mexicans lazily allow
themselves to be exploited until ex-
ploitation goes beyond endurance.
When they rise‘in wrath and go forth
to slay the exploiters. Jews—where
they are free—do not allow them-
selves to be exploited, And their mon-
ey-maklng is not through repacious ex~
ploitation-it is through a. genius for
giving good service in the realms of
trade. Your Jew in Mexico may cheat
the native a little-if the native's stu-
pid. But he won’t cheat him too much,
for he’ll want to stay and make an-
other iittle profit next season.

JAPAN'S GOOD ROADS.
Japan is peculiarly well off in re-
spect ol’ good highways. The Tokai-
do, which runsfrom Kioto to Tokyo,
is over 300 miles in length, and, as
the writer can testify, is admirably
constructed. There is also the Na-
kasendo, which is even longer and
passes through some of the finest
scenery in the world. The reason of
Japan’s excellence in the matter of
roads is that in the old days—not so

LONDON,l April 22. (Correspond-‘
once of The Associated Press.)~—War
work for women has its oilicial limita-
tions, since the Home Secretary re-
fuses to grant licenses-to women who
have successfully passed the examin-
ations required of drivers of motor
vehicles. The reason the Home Sec.
gictary gave to the applicants was the
jpubitc'a alleged lack of confidence in
women drivers.
“Could he not leave the public to
decide that?’ asked Miss JPhipps,
president‘ot the National Federation
of Women Teachers,«'in an address
before that body in London the past
Week.
Miss Phipps aired Adi-her grievances
against the government in which she
had the sympathy of the teachers.
The legislation closing the liquor
houses to women until 11:30 a. In.
and not to the men was based on the
lie, she said,that most of the“ drink-
ing was done by soldiers' wives. This
she considered a deadly insult 'to the
women. Discrimination in the matter
of wages existed in "the factories fur-
nishing munitions of war, she Icharg-
ed, as men” received more pay than
the woman for equivalent work.

NORWALK SO. NORWALK
LONDON, April 22. (Correspond-
ence of The Associated Press.)-.—Bags
of light cotton cloth roughly stitch-
ed together with fine thread have
been received in great numbers by
relief committees from women who
think these flimsy contrivaures will
answer the purpose of sandhag pro-
tection for the soldiers at the front.
Miss M. L. Tyler, head of a commit-
tee collecting these sacks, has dis-
closed the extent of this wasted ef-
fort in a warning to women that the
sand bags the soldiers need must be
made of jute or some heavy material
and that the sewing must be done by
string instead of thread.
Sand bags are not only the best
bullet stoppers, but the easiest and
quickest way of making protection.
An urgent call for them as life sav-
ers has been made by ofllcers at the
front. The result is, sack making is
fast taking the place of muffler and
sock knitting among patriotic wo-
men. 1

the result of making shippers avoid

ATHENS, April 21—Hour in Tur-
key is at present much cheaper than
in any of the other countries of Eu-
rope. This is due mainly to the
large stores of grain wisel’y accumu
lated in the government stores. Tur-
key’s last harvest was estimate: :9
worth $250,000,000, of which the
emmcnt is said to have obta
four-fifths.
it is reported that there are 11 .
losses to the government supp;
from rotting, but there appears toga:
no reason to expect that the st
on hand will not last until the n-x
honest.
The next harvest, however, will be
a small one, owing to scanty sowings,
and many experts prophecy that the
result will certainly be a general
famine in Turkey next autumn.
