"leading Democrats of the stats

New Haven yesterday and did im-
portant things. Among otheerthsas
they did was to almost decapitated
Chairman Walsh of the Democratic
state central committee who lives in
South Norwaik. They decided to ap-
point an executive committee of five
to 'co-operste’ with the state com-
rmittee and Mayor Charles F. Thayer
of Norwich was placed at the head,
thus making Thayer virtually_ the
head of the party management in
this snfc.”

was a scream and a wom dropped

been shdotlng at the gallery had
shot into the crowd-and Lynch and
his friend narrowly escaped being
killed or badly injured."

The Only “'ay To Be floppy
The foremost rule fer tly wise
conduct of life appears to be con-
tained in a view to which Aristotle
parentheticaliy refers (in the Nich-
omachcan Ethics): "Not pleasure.
but freedom from pain is what the
wise man will aim at."
e Q e
The truth of this remark. it seems
to Arthur Schopenhauer. turns upon
the negative choractcr of happiness
—-the fact. that pleasure is only the
negation of pain. and that pain is
the positive element in life.
“Suppose that. (Schopenhauer ll—
lustratcs). with the exception of
some sore or painful spot, w are in
a physically sound and liralt y con-
dition; the pain of this one spot will
completely absorb our attention,
causing us to lose the sense of gen-
cral well-being. and destroying all
our comfort in life.
"In the sonic nay, when all our
aflairs but one turn out as wc. wish.
the. single instnnco in which our
aims are frustrated is a. constant
trouble to us. even though it be
something fluilo- trivial. We think a.
great deal about it. and vcry little
about those other and more import-
ant maitcrs in which we have been
successful."
In both these cases cited by
Schopenhauer, what has met with
resistance is the will; in the one
case it is objectified in the organ-
ism. in the other, as it represents
itself in the struggle of life: and in
both. it as plain that the satisfaction
than that it meets with no resist—
ance.
It is, therefore, as he points out.
a satisfaction which is not directly
felt; at. most. we can become. con-
scious of it only when we reflect up-
on our condition. hit that wh'ch
checks or arrests the will is so ‘r—
thing positive; it proclaims. its own
presence. All pleasure consists in
merely removing this check-«in
other words. in freeing us from its
action; and hence pleasure is a state
which can never last very long.
0 O 0
It would seem then that the hap—
piest lot is not to have experienced
the keenoe: delights or the greatest
pleasure, but to have brought life. to
a close without any great pain. bod-
ily or mental.
It follows from this that a man
should l‘lt"\‘('l‘ try to purchase pleas-
ure a tthe cost, of pain. or even at
the risk of incurring it; for. as
Schopenhaucr says. to do so is to
pay what i's ‘positlve and real fer
which is negative and illusory; while
something negative: that they pro-
duce happiness is a delusion; cher-
ished by envyto its own punish-
ment. Pain is felt to be something
positive. and hence its absence is the
true standard of happiness. '
"And if. over ' and above pain.
there is also an absence of boredom.
the essential conditions of earthly
happiness are attained: for all else.
of the will consists in nothing else
is chimericai."

The answer to Lura's question
was that Bob was having a good
time: much to his surprise,
He left Lura feeling resigned to
a. dull evening. He didn‘t. relish
going to a party with Donna.
Some of his doubt was dispelled

speedometer moved over to 30.
"'l‘raid cat." Donna taunted.
"Discretion ‘is the better part of
valor. you know, old thing," he re-
sponded. The thought struck him
at.tha.t moment that Donna's of-
fusive good-humor was affected.

DA‘VES PLAN AIIONE “‘HL 3701‘
BRING PEACE T0 El‘ROPE"
SAYS Hl'NGARlAN Dll’IiOv
MAT-Al‘THOR
"Now that, thc llnwcs plan has
been sanctioned by the vote of the
German Ileicbstag. the World has
become imbued saith the idea that
at last the magic forniula is found
that will eventually save Europe
and the world for peace. Let us be
cartful in order that the swish
should not remain the father of
the thought,“ said Ernest Ludwig
former member of the Austra-Hun-
garian and Hungarian forclgn serv-
ice, and an author of note. in u re-
cent interview.
“!\‘o_ doubt peace would and
should also mean a gencral recovery—
of businrss and a brightcr outlook
for export trade. But this result in.
‘ilself does not yet mcan peace.
'I’t-ace means the harmony of souls
—a state of mind which is generally
missing in all former warring coun-
tries of Europe to-day and which
ciiminatcs the grounds for new con-
flicts. The great. perhaps tragic
mistake of the Paris Peace Confer-
ence is that it created a League of
Nations to perpetuate, the conditions
of the peace treaties before it ac-
tually accomplished peace.
Other Things Recess sry.
"Tile-re are other things necessary
for Central Europe besides the Daw-
es plan or the international loans
that have been floated in favor of
Ausuia and Hungary under the
auspices of the League of Nations
and with the aid of~ American and
English capital. Jeremiah Smith
is no doubt an excellent General
Commissioner in Hungary—this is
what all Hungarians believe, a mere
stopgap at its very best. It. does not
mean peace for Hungary. Don't. let
us get away with~the idea that it
does. '
"Hungary has probably been the
greatest. loser of the war. At the
time when the Silesian conflict was
uppermost in everybody's mind Mr.
Keynes. (J. M. Keynes, noted eco-
nomist) practically supported the
German plea in stating that unless
the Upper Silesian coal mines Were
assigned to German, y she could not
keep her coal deliveries to France of
2.000.000 tons a month, and was
generally rendered impotent to meet
the reparation demands on her. In
Hungary's case, for instance, these.
considerations seem seem to have
'been completely overlooked. Hun-
gary lost. two-thirds" of her former
territory with practically all her
iron ore deposits. saltmines. timber
oil or rather natural gas fields, the
major part of her coal mines. etc.
Germany can exist without Upper
Silesia; handicapped with her loss-
es,_Hungary cannot.
Majority Dissatisfied.
"0f about 12,000,000 to 13.000,-
000 inhabitants which Hungary was
deprived of by virtue of the Trian-
on Treaty (according to a. conserva-
tive estimate, more than any other
belligerent) about 9,000,000 to 10.-
