b The logical move would be for the

Connecticut Co. to install and oper.
ate these bus lines. This company
has ample experience in the field.
knows its job and is amply financed.
. There was evidence of lntnrcst and

cooperation lately on the part of tho.
' Connecticut Co.. to the suggestion
that tentative bus routes be investi-
gated and given a trial. but. this has
died down.

Then in growing evidence that a
bus “TIC connecting Dayle“ with

rafl be supplied.

are going widely into the bus busi-
ness. and that. busses should be sup-
plied when needf‘d. oven at the risk
of temporary financial losses.

Ono hundrrd and fifty companifls
now are opcrntlng busses in canine-
Hon with their electric railway serv-
ice. and it is said that 25 per cent.
of all the busses sold last year went
to electric railway companies. Mr.
Budd declared.

The Connecticut Company in oth-
er cities is operating busses to sup-
. .0 niemerlt its trolley service. “’hy is it
~ neglecting Norwalk in this impor-
tant matter?

"1 haic the utmost faith in the
' . future- of the electric railways. No
form of "city transportation has been
«devised that can take their place,"
Mr. ‘Budtl rommucdr “It. has been
. conclusively demonstrated that oth-
or-mrms. including MOTOR BUBB-
l-lfi. can be counted upon only as
auxiliaries. Electric railways must
uonimue to be developed {or the
fullest service. and tor any city not
to recognize this would be suicidal
to its business prosperity Ind.
convenience of the people and would
soon reflect. itself in depreciated
property values and general com-
munity domoralizuiion."

W'ith this we agree. Also we re-
peat that busscs at the moment are
a needed auxiliary to the Connecticut
cut Company‘s service here and. un-
less supplied. the result will be a.

fthat history is little more than the
register of crimes. follies. and mis-
fortunes of mankind.

To Goethe. the best that history

gives us is the enthusiasm it arouses.

He saw the historian's duty as

two-fold: first towards himself, then
towards his readers;

"As regards himself. he must cure—
. that
and. for
he reader's ache. he must determine

what actually DID happen.

“His action towards himself is a

matter between himselt and his col-
leagues: but the public must
see into the secret that there is little.
which can be said to be positively
determined." -

"This country has reached the
stage in its development in which all

Editor. Evening
Dear Sir:—

“No public official in the ‘i'hitc’
House. or on the. Supreme bench or
in Congress in a generation has bI-en
more truly and worthily a national
public servant. than Senator Ln Fol-
lettc. No section. no class. no state.
no cult. or creed, or even party has
been able to win his support as a
United States senator away from a
broad. courageous9 intelligent con-
ception oi! his duty to this whole na-
tion. His record vote is a guide in
the Senate to the brave. wise. states-
man-like course in €\cry crisis.
Robert LaFollctte is. by odds. the;
biggest man in the United States
Senate. He has seen more of his.
demands met. more of his ’

ideals .
realized. more of his plans matured
into reality than any senator who
has been in public life in this gener-
ation.

"Moreov'er. he has seen these dev
mands met. ideals realized and plans
matured. not by sitting idly by and
hoping. but by fighting with all the
order of a crusader. and all the in-
telligence of a. trained political gon-
oral. What a record of political \lC-
tories his career has been and not

one chance has favor-id hunt E."

merits, .
hrs hit the enemy line at its Strong—'3
est point. and has gone through. so :
he is battle scarred and weighted;
with enemies. But his enemies are
his best recommendation. llis sealps
are his laurcls.

“For not. once has he ever lll‘lt‘d .
up with special orifllege. Always
has he been lighting for more
equitable economic conditions for
the people; always this he stood tor
broader and more drmovratic con-‘
trol of this government. The
aristocracy oi organized aggrandizcd
wealth and crafty political piutocra-
cy knows Senator La l-‘ollcite for its
uncompromising toe. It never
sleeps. It is nt‘:v;r him now. His;
fall will mean a triumph of money!
and privilege in America.

“Of course it mil not fight fair-— ,
this secret power that stalks in ev- .
cry state seeking to sweep brave;
clean men from politics. Senator‘
La Follette will have to meet lies;
he will have to right against half
truths twisted into vicious false-l
hoods. He “'i0l have to .stand,
against malice posing as patriotism; ,
and he will have to combat not mere- =
ly open bribery but corruption mask- f
ing as state pride and national '
honor." i
