WHAT NORWALK

Some Observations 0n
L o c a I Questions Now
Agitating Public.
Editor of Evening Sentinel:
The primary object or occasion
for having an election is that cinde-
termining choice or action in mat-
ters of government. The average
voter has the feeling that it matters
little which party wins or who is
elected; as he or she. the voter, will
hava to plug along as usual. And
usually that is true. The fact that
the "cuts" want in, and the “ins"
want to stay in and retain their
power. in substance. is the whole
story in a nutshell.
State issues rarely arouse more
than curiosity. out once we get near.
or home. the interest grown. The
Norwalk voter is. primarily. inter-
ested in questions which affect di-
rsetly. as taxation. streets. and
schools are of particular interest to
pan his—especially mothers.
Many parents are solely interested
in the proposed bond issue for new
school buildings. which will come up
for consideration by thc next legis-
lature. The question of the sale of
district utilities and other properties
to the city may not interest the some
people at all. They do not see any
relation or connection between the
sale of the district utilities to the
city. and a school building program.
How. they say. could one have any
effect on the other? Their study or
the whole question has not reached
the point where they would learn
that it the proposal of the Charter
ilevislon committee for the sale of
the district utilitics and other prop-
erties to the city. is affirmed by the
voters on election day. that lllt'
bonded lndcbtcdness of the city
would bo increased approximately
one-half million dollars, and which
would raise our bonded debt to. or
exceeding the limit allowed under
our charter and the laws of this
state. These bonds. of course, Would
have
bond issue and nould retard. or
make impossiblv. any school build-
ing program for yvars—perhaps ten
years. Why": Because. assuming
that the appraisal values of the
Norwalk and the South Norwalk
wateruorks would about balance.
there is still the item of the South
Nonvalk Electric Works. it matter
of at least four hundred thousand
(tioo.000.00) and possibly as high
as five hundred thousand ($500.-
000.00) dollars. besides other Second
District properties of perhaps 8250.-
000.00 value; in addition there is the
Electric Works in East Norwalk; all
of which would have to be paid for
by the issuance of bonds.
It seems to me that it these seem
omic questions. which come so
prominently to the front in every
campaign. were looked at in a some-
what different light; and given their
proper place in our scheme of gov-
ernment; it would seem that many.
most of these questions or issues
would he shoved back just a bit. to
make way for some of the real
questions—tho real problems which
confront society; in this case. our
own city government. Much has
been said and written in regard to
the ways and means of stimulating
growth and prosperity. and evident-
ly with-too little regard to the car-
dinal principle that the best way to
insure the growth and prosperity of
Norwalk. is to make Norwalk a bet-
ter place to live in.
Among these principles are law
and order. and ordinary decency in
the social relations of the commun-
ity. Canton. Ohio, until sometime
last July. was looked upon by the
outside world. and by a large num-
ber in that city. in a political and
social way: as little different from
other cities of that: class. Like most
cities. there was a great deal of in-
difference to the real condition.
There was some talk. and suspicions.
but u is generally the case. no one
wanted to interfere. Canton was like
other cities; other cities are like
Canton.- But when a courageous
young editor in that city was shot
down. and the news of that deed
with all the details were broadcasted
throughout the world. and not until
then; did the business men, the
church people. and all the other
good citizens arise in their wrath
and might to save their city. their
property. and themselves and ram.
tiles from the demoralizing influence
that. threatened. for a time. the ex-
tinction of everything worth while.
But. the lessons of history were not
“‘er 01‘ they had no value there;
for some one had to be a marry.- in
the cause of right—and of better
things.
In this connection. ma
that it would be well 13.13%
citizens of Norwalk. to take stock
of the social and political state of
affairs and find where we are. and
wiggle; are we drifting.
e me has come for a change
in the attitude of the “good" old.
son who has abstained from voting.
and the indifference of-a. gram;-
namber to the real state of things.
except that their party wins. This
has left the field clea'r for the petty
ohiei‘tans who fatten on bootlegging.
dive-keeping and similar sources of
graft.
We know something of conditions
as they are. but where will it end?
How much longer will the common-
most in morals. education and're-
llgion? To what amt it

education on one hand. and

Heavy Traffic
Expected For
Yale-Army Game
There will be more trani'lic on the
state highways tomorrow. perhaps.
than there has been on any other
day of this year. owing to the press
of automobiles toward New llaven
from all directions for the most pop~
uiur game of the present season.
Every available seat in the Yale
iiowl has been sold for the Yale-
Army football game and the great
ulaiori' of those who attend will
be transported in automobiles.
The state motor vehicle. police
and highway departments. in co-
operation with the New Haven and
West Haven police and the New lla-
ven Automobile Club and Connec-
Ucut Company have perfected the
trailic arrangements that have gov-
erned the handling of traffic occa—
sioned by the big games at New lia-
vcn in the past two \icekl. Their
experience this year as well as in
past years. has showh that the great
football crowds are not dillicult to
handle if the simple rules and di-
rections are followod. They are to
avoid extremes of speed on the
highways. not traveling so slowly as
to hold up traffic behind nor so fast
that the driver does not have coni-
plcte control of his car.
The trouble with the slow driver
on occasions like these. when every
main highway running into New
Haven presents the spectacle of an
unbroken line of well-tilled automo-
biles. is that it encourages the driv-
or behind him to try to turn out and
pass. Others follow suit. with the
result that a great many cars are
constantly turning ou. into the right
of way of opposite trnlilc all along
the line until the slow car gets into
New Haven. This leads to confu-
slon, and experience of past years
has shown that it is the most dan-
gcrous practice to be guardcd
ngulnst.
