Mrs. Robert Lancraft offers the following interesting letter from Eleanor B. Nave who with her husband tho Rev. J. W. Nave arrived in India on Armistice Day. ,
Rev. Nave was former pastor ot Epwortli M. E. Church, Now Haven.
; Parker High School Moradabad, u. p., India
January 30, 1930 Dear American Friends; '
Many of you women have asked me to write of our home. I only wish you might step in and see our home as we found It on our arrival.
Missionary bungalows are good, bad, and Indifferent with all too many in the • second class. Even though I had lived in India many years, my heart almost failed me as I flrst entered the house which Is our homo. Tha yard, a dust-bowl, quite void of r.ny susaicion of gross, presented itself as our lawn. Dust-laden verandas showed evidences of having boon swept earlier in tho day. Color-washed walls, hideously with greenish-blue glared a t us as we entered. Heavy, clumsy, dust Imbedded grass mats (possible relics .of Noah's Ark If, judged by the ragged, uneven edges, the numerous holes; and the myi-lad'streaks; spots and stains) boasted as being the floor coverings, and only partially concealed the broken lime floors beneath. The floors seemed no less modern than the mats, and fro; quontly gave way with a crunchy feel beneath our feet.
One or two of the scanty pieces of furniture had recently been repaired, but most of the few pieces of furniture had long been in need of a kindly hand. Kngbs, legs, drawers, shelves and table tops were elthe,r missing or had grown old and do crepit through the years.
Some benevolent occupant, In days gone by, had made an effort to screen the bungalow, bu t stop ped short when one third of the house was screened: We later found that these screens function by hold Ing In the files and mosquitoes that come our way (a fly trap), but very graciously keep out the all too neigh borly dogs, squirrels, chipmunks, crows, snakeis, bats, and pigeons.
As It now stands, files and mosquitoes haunt us with their presence. I had quite forgotten how friendly they can be and how they both enjoy the hospitality of tho teacup or the milk pitcher, where thoy seem to be much' a t homo. Snakes are not now in evidence for this Is the cold season. But the bats disturb mo greatly, for thoy come at such inappropriate times and so unannounced, tha t I quite forgot that there Is such a word as dignity. I :
The only convenience In the kitchen was a flue. A broken down Indian cook place, supposedly under the flue but quite too'^ar to one stdc,;ppured all ot the & o k e (and
there Is Is an over- abundance of smoke from the railway cinders which vie use for cooking) r ight out into the kitchen.,Not a shelf, table or anything grace(J,the kitchen. The water we use Is carried to us from a well in at goatskin across the man's back, and put into a n earthen container from which wo dip It.
For two months, .scrub brushes, lye, soap, cleaners, varnish and "elbow grease" have been our cons tan t helpers,fl,s the children and I cleaned every,popjc and corner of this big barn of .a^-piace. Things are greatly Improved and wo Invite you for a visit., , . ' , ' " ' ,
Rains have been, unusually scarce this year and the whole country side Is suffering fro want of rain. Prices are going up and the outlook is rather bad especially for the really poor people. This accounts for the superabundance of dust with' which wo .\y^i;stle dally.
I t Is a great Joy to bo again In our life's work where God h a s call ed us. We are happy despite all these difficulties. However, there are times when I sometimes wish It were possible to transport a modern American kitchen across tho waters, and I would not object if the kitchen were completly encased with croen doors I
Yours in glad service, , , , : Eleanor B. Nave.

Anyone who has ever lived or worked or played abroad will delight in tile charrnlng and intimate account of how one American family did all three. "Living Abroad" is not merely a travel book as Nerval Richardson has made this a work to bo read for sheer entertainment. Though It is told in a light vein, the book offers a profound understanding of the life and customs of a variety of foreign peoples among whom Norval Richardson has spent so many years.
Is there a person in American who a t one time or another has not turned from the pages, of the Bible Willi a far-away look in his eyes to conjure up pictures of Its hills and cities, its rivers and plains and temples? When I reported on this book at our missionary society silver tea Mrs. Wain-man who had read it remarked that the scope of the book i s ' r e -marlcabie. It begins at Alexandret-ta, in Syria, and ' ends wltli a de-scriptioii of Aimslolic sites in Rome whore the author, H. V. Morton spent Easter Week. -
"Mexico" says Henry Albert Phillips, "Is the most lively .and-vivid example that we cap recall ot the adage "History fepcats itself."
Pat ty and I absorbed "New Designs for Old Mexico," because our friends the Pattersons aro leaving next month for a two months visit there.

Other books we liavc asked for is "Tlio True History of the Conquest of Mexico," written by Captain Ber-nal Diaz Del Casllilo. The librarian told our lovely daughter t ha t It is an amazing story told with the uncompromising candor of a soldier. To read it Is to an eye witness to one of the most astonishing conquests in the world's history. The pages quiver with life, raw, angry, painful, appalling. A marvelous story.

Street is a patient in Grace Hospital suffering from a brain concussion.
Details are not quite clear in the mind of the victim but yesterday he told this story.
Coming over the Pine Orchard road a man stopped In front of his car and forced entry, Bombollokl recalls tucking forty cents wrapped In a dollar bill Into a silt In the upliolstery. Ho had taken this precaution on lonely roads on previous occasions.
The hitch hiker demanded money, BombollskI offered his watch which wos refused. He has no recollection jf having struggled with the man but the car was ransacked and the floor covered with mud.
How he managed to drive home and into the garage Is a mystery for he had been knocked uncon-|.sclcnce over his wheel having been struck square in the face by a heavy blunt Instrument.

OUR HLE.S.SICD COUNTIIV When We road of countries where
liberty Is gone and the people are returning to the days when dictators are supreme, no liberty to speak In public, to print one's thoughts, to dohvcrso fteely with acquaintances, how glad wo ought to bo that we live In theso Uhltcd States. Thank God f o r O u r countryl Millions of oppressed people today look with longing eyes to this land. They «ond their gold to us for safe keeping. They entreat our government to let them domd hither. I t Is said that the quota of Immigration of some countries W filed for 26 years to come. Our very depression would seem boundless wealth to the people ot many lands.
-Vet we have people among us who constantly complain. They find fault with the government, with living conditions, unemployment, and about everything here. There should be some sort of euro for such. I can think ot nothing bettor than to compel them to swap places with some of the unfortunates who long to make this tholr home. They would not have to live for long In some European countries to become fully satisned with this country. I had a young Italian friend once who was constantly talking about the old country, and oagerly looking for ward to tho time when he could visit there.again, At last his opportunity came, and he wont back on a visit When he returned he pamo In to see me. I said, "Well, 'rony, what do you think of tho old coun-tryV" His answer, "O my GodI never again I" In thd legislature the two most ardent patriots we have. If one Is to Judge by their ffequcht Speech making on the subject, are both foreign born.

THE CONSUMER SPEAKS By HOWARD PATE
Dame rumor Is carrying the word around V/a-shlngton that several of Capital ofllclals arc quietly and privately recuperating from a bad case of Jitters occasioned by the Supreme Court's rebuke of the National Labor Relations Board.
Tho.5e reportedly on the rccuper,-atlng list are the middle-of-the-road ofnclttls who have been credited with (juleUng tho llbcrar element of officialdom.
Rea.5on tor the Jitter.?, according to the story, Is that tho Court's rule outlawing tho sit-down strike so angered the liberals that they wanted to throw care to the winds and brickbats at the Court again.
The mlddle-of-the-roaders, re membering the public's attitude the last Court attack, flnally persuaded their colleagues that another attack would be dangerous. So it was that heated words which almost hi t the headlines wound up only as mut -terlngs that echoed themselves out In tho Inner chambers.
Incidentally, when the argument was a t the boiling point, one official

THE ENEMY WITHIN ' | This column has come to the
conclusion that the enemies of Democracy within our borders are not the Nazi Bunds or the octlvc Communists but the Indifference of far too many of our own American citizens to our form of government.
The real enemies of Democracy are those too lazy to exercise their privilege of the vote, or else they say "What's the use, one vote won't make any difference." The real enemies of Democracy fall to Interest themsefves In our own Internal problems but leave to others to decide what to do about unemployment, relief, labor, strife, slums, and numerous other questions tha t must be solved If Democracy, here a t least, Is to continue.
Too many citizens take for granted our freedom. Freedom of the press and of speech, and freedom to worship as one schooses are taken as a matter of course. I t Is this Indifference tha t Is the real threat to Democracy. Events In Europe arc enough to open our eyes. Last week this column stated tha t Fascism and Communism, In spite of their outward antipathy toward each other, had much In common.
Chamberlain, the world's champ-Ion muddler, in giving in to Hitler hoped tha t Hitler would press east-ward and come to war with the Soviet Union over tho Ukraine. The Ukraine is rich In wheat and oil but when and if Hitler takes Rumania ho will have large quantities of oil a t least. And the other central Eu ropean states that Hitler has his eye on supply funds and raw materials tha t Germany needs. So it is quite possible t ha t Hitler will lay off the Ukraine for a while a t least. And in tlie meantime it is quite possible and I might add, probable, that Russia and Germany rriay roach'an accord. This only bears put my contention that Fascism and Communism have much In com men. Now Chamberlain looks to Russia for help after giving that country the cold shoulder. Stalin is no fool even If Chamberlain is.

entrance of the liotol.
As ooiifiision in Europe grows erontcr, so also does the need for America to think clearly and in terms of a few simple facts tha t wo know. The s t ruggle for imperial ambitions which is wracking Europe today was going on long before this c\emocraoy was founded, Should we permit ourselves to 1 0 embroiled in it, it may be going on long after this country ceuaes to exist as a domooraoy.
The situation in Europe today approaches again the situation of pre-war days when the Austr ian-I lungnrinn Empi re was intact and a oloao ally of Germany. AVltb what purpose then did tho Araori-eon men die in tho Wor ld W a r ! Wo Buocceded in establishing the !ud,opeiideneo of certain small countries but wo could not control tl(0 policies of tho European powers and force them to carry out other ports of the American program which would have made it possible to preserve tho indepen-donoo of these li t t le nations.
Neither today, even by sacrificing our young men to win a foreign victory, could wo bring about 'conditions in Europe that would mpan any kind of lasting peace. Only Europe can put I bo Euro-penp bouse in order. AVhat is liap-poiiing today has long been jjro-pjiqaioil by those who have urged a polioy of adjustment among tho great European powers. Had a polioy of adjustment among tlie l^reftt powers been followed, the small countries, as .statesmen in CaOQhosloviikia themselves have Huldi would not have needed to be snorificad.
Even lifter Mnnieli, had iinnio-dittlo steps been taken for a world confere^ieo based on recognition of t|io intord,ependeiico of nations and tlio unity of mankind the present situation might never Imvo arisen. Instead, a mad race in armaments was a t once begun tlirpatening another dictated peace apti thus encouraging aggression by tile dictators on powci-s wcak-

All this to the enemy within, the person who doesn't care whether ho can go to church or not, who doesn't Interest himself in the news, who listens only to comedians and swing on the radio, who thinks the movies have reached tlielr zenith, and who never had the guts to Join a union will be unaffected thus far by a dictatorship.
Here are several ways which will directly affect the personal liberties of our enemy within. After the government took over the Malleable Iron Fittings Company, lock, stock and barrel to manufacture war materials, the citizen indifferent to Democracy or dictatorship would find himself at forced labor In the above factory whether he liked it or not—and he might not like it. He 'migh t be perfectly wlUlng to work there of his own accord but when faced with working there or being dosed with caster oil in a concentration camp he would begin to realize that Democracy was much more preferable. He might also want to do other things rather than be conscripted tor military duty.
Young toughs In uniform would enter his home without any pretext whatsoever and search his papers and effects. This almost happens in the middle of the night. Lord help him if he has any literature not sanctioned by the government.
He might be arrested. Will he be told what charges he is being held under? No. Will he be permitted a Jury trial? No. Most likely even a pretense of a trial will be dispensed with. I t Judged guilty by the arresting officers he will be excessively fined or shipped off to a concentration camp where cruel and unusual punishments are tlie rule. He may be executed for some unguarded r e mark or suffer the new and modern punishment wliere after being ar rested the victim simply disappears without a trace.
So it ;can be seen that an American dictatorship would affect the personal lives of all. It is up to us to educate these enemies within and show them how to sift the true from the false. We have little to fear from the Communists and the Bunds but much to fear from a

The story being told around the Capital is t ha t tho "Joker" was the CIp's price for peace in the ranks of labor. The CIO., according to the story, laid the "amendment before certain high government officials with an ultimatum of "Include it In the defense bill or there won't be any peace In labor." The officials supposedly. placed the amendment in the hands of a friendly Senator and It was included when the defense measure passed the Senate.
WORKING FOR UNCLE SAM A current report of tho U. S. Civil Service Commission shows
there were 91'7,303 persons holding Federal government jobs last De-ooniber. This is the highest figure on record, and. does no t include the army, navy, CCC, W P A or P W A .
Thus, the complexities of tlie Washington goverinneiit are well revealed by the fact t ha t it takes about a million persons to handle them. .
Then if the oriny, navy, CCC, AVPA and other govornmout iirb-jeots lire included, it is catimated that one of every eight of America 's working population receives his pay from the Federal tax till. That means tha t tho other seven must somehow earn the taxes to pay the salary of the one and at the same time contribute to tlie support of State, county and local governmental ageneies.

and the Communist Party stand for makesrJt;;easy; to, avoid ijBlrisfun-diily influenced by' their propaganda. So we can dismiss tlicm as relatively harmless. I t we have a dictatorship here it will not come from the Bund or Communist but from some rabble-rouser in our midst. And how will he rise? Because these enemies within who are our own American citizens wlio lack interest in our own affairs will be gullible enough to listen to smootli words. To prove this one has only to look at the huge • following duped by Huey Long, Father Coughlln and Dr. Townsend. They promise the impossible and because far too many do not have fundamental or even a rudimentary knowledge of our problems of government they are not able to see through the fallacies of something for nothing.
These are the people who constitute our real enemies of Democracy. Something must be wrong with our schooling when so many are willing to listen to schemes devoid of all common sense. What kind of economics is taught in the public schools that lets literally mllUons of people believe than ?.D0 dollars a month or 30 dollars every Thursday is ec onoinlcally feasible? What kind of civics is taught t ha t lets us tolerate the Waterbury and .Merrltt Park way scandals? In these two subjects at least our educational system has failed. If practical economics were taught we would not listen to crack pot scliemes which, if carried out, might wreck our Democracy. If gov-renment and civics were taught with a spark of lire. Democracy and our form of government might be sometliing vital and real to more of our citizens.
Many people believe that "it can happen here." Some even believe that a dictatorship would not make much difference in their personal lives, y/liat would it bo like under a totalitarian form of government in this country? Wliat would it be like here in town? To begin with, If you are a Jew, Lord help you, If you are a Negro, Lord help yoiS. It you are a Catholic, Lord help you. Whatever your religion If you at tempt to go to church. Lord help you. Those who never go to church will not suffer persecution on this score.
Our newspapers would be radically changed.' Even the comic strips would have to be approved by the government. We would get no real news, tha t is, both sides of a question or issue, only what the government wanted us to liear. Our radios would blare forth Incessant propaganda. Our movies would change for the worst. If t h a t is possible. All labor union activity

The Editor,
Branford Review, Branford, Conn. Dear Sir:
I have been following with considerable interest Mr. Howard Pate's discussion in the Branford Review the date of the foundation of Branford. Although the exact date of the first settlement may not be known it seems to me tha t a date for the establishment of-Branford (Toto-ket then of course) as a town may be readily gained from a study of
The New Haven Colony" by Isabel MacBeath Calder, Yale University Press 1934. She gives the facts as ascertainable and what Is of ab solute value she authenticates each statement with references to the j screen; original sources.
Then there is Charles M. Andrews "The Colonial Period of American History" vol. II, Yale University Press,. 1030 which does tlie same thing in briefer form.
I take it tor granted that both these books are i n the Branford Library. They are certainly In the Yale Library.
I hope yoii do not mind my writing to you in this way and I shall wait with interest for the next item in the Review.

AMERICAN WAGES HIGHER An American factory worker can
buy with one hour's wages, four times as much food and clothing as a German worker; nine times as much as an Italian, and nearly 12 times as much as a Russian.
by MARY P.-VUL
Very often when line plays and novels are adapted to the screen, the outcome is usually a disappointment to many theatergoers.
In my estimation I believe that the few changes In the screen version of "Dark Victory" have helped tremendously toward making it a better movie—one which will be remembered for many years.
In 1934 when Tallulah Bankhead and Earle Larrlmore appeared in "Dark Victory" the public was not very enthusiastic about the play. As you may remember, it held for fifty one performances. Perhaps if the screen version were used it may have been a bigger success
The superb acting of George Brent, Bet te Davles,. and Gerald-Ine Fitzgerald has helped very much toward making the story more believable and realistic, as well a s emotional. We need not make any apology for our tears—let them flow
The story centers about Judith Traherne (Bette Davis), who h a s but ten months to live; Dr. Frederick Steele (George Brent) , her phy-slcan, plus Judith's secretary, Ann King. (Geraldlne Fitzgerald).
Judith, a wealthy, fun-loving, girl whose life is a continuous round of parties theatres and horses has been suffering tor some time from headaches, which she believed to be hang-overs. She finally admits t o her confidante-secretary Ann, t ha t she knows she Is ill. Ann, with grea t persuasion, finally gets Judith to visit Dr. Steele, a prominent brain speolaUst
The diagnosis discloses tha t J u dith's condition is hopeless, she is a victim of malignant glioma and can live bu t a short time. An operation will only extend her life to months.
Judith allows Dr. Steele to t reat her and falls in love with him. He proposes to her, telling her they will live temporarily in New England while he does some vital research work
On her wedding eve Judith learns that she is doomed. She mistakes Steele's love as pity, and Is deter- , mined to live the short period o£ time in reckless abandon.
Steele reasons with her saying she is fortunate , t ha t she unlike others knows when and how death win. strike; r that she should accept . her fate with braveness and t r an quility.
After, a few weeks of living In reckless abandon, she marries Steele. On his Vermont farm they live a normal life—he working In the laboratory and she caring for him.
Darkness closes In about Judi th a t a time when Steele Is needed elsewhere. She acts calm and gently send him away not telling him that; she is about to die
Miss Davles deserves many honors as her role is extremely difficult. A less- experienced actress would have over-acted the part . For in stance, the violent scene she makes when she learns her fate might have been overdone.
George Brent somewhat counteracts Miss Davis' Impetuousness by his sober portrayal of Dr. Steele.
Geraldlne Fitzgerald (from Dublin) appears for the first thne in American movies in this picture She has acted in many English pictures, few of which have reached America She possesess the dignified, patrician beauty which is rare in Hollywood.
Humphrey Bogart plays one of his gunless sympathetic rples. Henry Travers is Judith's kindly family doctor, who can do nothing with the obstinate Judith. Ronald Reagan, a penniless ne'er-do-well great ly admires Judith because of her courage and galantness..
In revising the story for t h e ' Warners substituted, the
character portrayed by Dwight Flske with the Ann King portrayed by Miss Fitzgerald. This gives Brent as Steele the opportunity to discuss Judith 's doom with Miss Fitzgerald. In so doing, the scenes between Steele and Judi th are concerned with the love theme alone.
Also, the story has been divided into two parts, one dealing with love and the other with death
The dogs used in the film belong to Miss Davis' sister, Mrs. Robert Pelgrim. The dogs would obey no one else; therefore, in order to work in the scene with the dogs, Mrs. Pelgrim had to join the Screen Actors Guild.

Branford's Board ot Finance appeal to appropriate $30,000 for repairs to hurricane damage throughout Branford may reoeivo a temporary set back at the State Capitol by the Finance committee.
At the,public iiearing some time ago it was reported favorably into the house but since the New Britain question .Senator Roberts thought the bill should be revamped. However, Branford's appeal is for repairs caused by the hurricane and in that way differs from the New Britain story.
Members of the Finance Committee are not expected to oppose ah-y attempt by tho town to repair Its hurricane damage but find fault only wltli the mechanics of the bill that would permit it. The committee apparently feared future abuses.
The matter was oh the calendar yesterday and today, but was laid aside each day when the meeting adjourned. It is expected to be acted oh' tomorrow.
Details ot the proposed repair work in Branford are not available
but it is plannedto appropriate $30,000 in the next town budget for the purpose and apportion the tax over a five year period. It is under-

Decausn a Hartford surety concern provided tho bond necessary by law tor Tax Collector James'C. Ogllvlo the special meeting called for Monday night by the East Haven Board ot Selectmen and tho Board ot Finance was called off.
The town found itself in a dllo-cmma arising because a'bonding company had declined to renew the surety bond. Recently, it was stated, bonding concerns have been tightening iip on their regulations because' of losses which they have had to make good In many municipalities, and aro therefore requiring that all these regulations must bo mot before bonds are reissued.
In the East Haven case, it was said tho recent report of tho state auditors which followed the request by the local administration for permission to . float refunding bonds, brought to light allegedly that the town's suspense book has not been brought up to date. This is the book in which are recorded the back taxes owed to the town which, al-. thougli hot likoly to bo' coliectcd, are still handled as assets, When this condition was brought out, and oven before, work had been started in tho tax office on these necessary clianges, but, involving as they do every item as far back as 1018, little progress could bo expected.
