WCTU LEADER LINKS PEACE EFFORT TO DRY Inteparably Related, Mrs. Colvin at Intt'dtte MONTICELLO Preaching both peace and prohibition as among the foremost needs of the United States today, Mrs. D. Leigh Colvin, national vice-president of the W. C.

TJ. contemplated a campaign to enlist members of newly-formed peace organizations as crusaders for the return of prohibition. A national program for peace has been a part of the W. C. T.

TT. platform for more than fifty years, she said. During the evening meeting Mrs. Colvin denounced what she called hangover wet propaganda and asserted that regulations formulated by the State liquor authority to banish the old saloon had made drinking more attractive to young people and had increased liquor consumption.

Each Board member opposed the principle of state competition with private enterprise in vigorous terms. The renewal resolution indicated, that when the Board prepares the 1937 city budget this Fall it -will consider inclusion of an amount sufficient to permit a return to compensation insurance with private agencies. Mayor Chappell branded the principle of state competition with private insurance companies as "damnably unfair." The only point which Mayor Chappell saw in favor of the State Fund was the saving.

"Our budget condition is factor that almost compels us to reinsure with the State Fund," Mayor Chappell explained. He explained that the budget allowance was computed on State Fund estimates. "There is no latitude in the figures," Mayor Chappell concluded. "It's not a question of almost." Dr. Oscar Northway-Meyer amended.

"Our budget actually compels us to reinsure with the State Fund." These remarks followed an explanation by Mr. Benedict that the current budget has already been exceeded and was not in position to stand extraordinary strain. Purchase of snow removal equipment last Winter was a major factor in boosting expenditures above the amount estimated before the beginning of the fiscal year. The difference between insurance with Uw BteU Fund and with private ooapuitef WM estimated by Mr. Benedict at "I TOted year for the State Fund and its saving of about Dr.

Meyer laid. "And I agree.that what Mayor Chappell says about Itc unfair competition is utterly true." His reason for voting State Fund last year. Dr. Meyer said, was that the city had undertaken an economy program and that was one way of effecting it. Re observed, however, that the large amount of money spent in the city by local insurance men should be considered.

"I am not here to argue against Middletown insurance men," he said, "and furthermore I am willing to take the backslap that is certain to come if the city spends additional money in placing the insurance policy with local men. I am very much in favor it it." William O. Woodruff, president of the Common Council, also was heartily in favor of insuring with local agents but remarked. "I'm wondering only where we are going to get the extra money to do it." Mayor Chappell submitted figures revealing that only 431 municipalities out of 3,000 in the State, or less than twenty percent, insured with the State Fund. Only fifteen out of sixty cities and eleven out of sixty-one counties are patrons of the fund, he noted.
