Of particular interest to New Britain people, because of the comparison of wages paid manufacturers in this coun- try and in Germany, is the accompany- ing article taken from a recent edition of The Literary Digest: How is it that Germany can ‘‘sell machinery in Kurope at a quarter of the price of American machi of the same type delivered?’’ There is not the slightest doubt, to put it conserva- tively, “‘that Germany is underbidding us and England in many markets.’”” How, we read- further in a bulletin recently issued by the First Federal Foreign Banking association, and re- printed by Bradstreet’s, ‘‘can the Ger- mand do it?” This interesting and in- forming answer is vouchsafed by the authority that puts the question: They can do it, without any doubt, on the straight basis of lower produc- tion and selling costs, in the industries using mainly German iron, German, coal, and German labor. England is in the same way coming right into our own market with manufactures (cer- tain chemicals, to be specific) that are made by English labor out of English raw materials. Whether they can do it with products that need copper, cot- ton, and other imported raw materials is another matter, but their economies will surely cQunt in the international competition for the sale of these also. There are fiveé chief elements in the price of a manufactured product: . Raw material. Labor. 3. Capital overheads. . Management overheads. 5. Profit.

The German government controls prices and has a burean in which is combined the control of exports and imports with the control of exchange. The mark in domestic exchange is kept upon a basis of its own, and the foreign-trade value of the money is negotiated upon a dif- ferent Lasis.

German labor was before the war willing to work upon a lower scale of real wages than either English or American workmen. German technical men were always upon a low wage scale. German executives and busi- ness men are, without a doubt, ready to do business upon a narrower margin of profit than are Americans, JIINEUR FINED AS RECKLESS DRIVER Onorata Assessed $35 and Costs —Juvenile Court For passing intersection streets and a standing jitney buk at an alleged reckless rate of speed and without blowing his horn, Mighael Qnorata who operates Guido Giantino’s bus on the Stanley street line, was fined $35 and costs by Judge G. W. Klett this morning. Onarata pleaded not guilty. Presecutor Joseph G. Woods handled the stata’s case. Policeman John C. Stadler told the court that his attentions were attract- ed to Onorata’s bus at 8:55 o'clock last night on East street, when he saw the accuged passing intersecting streets about 35 miles an hour. The bus was on the left side of tha street. The patrolman shouted to Onorata but he failed to come to a stop. Tha intersections of Belden, Chestnut and Linden streets wero passed before the accused was apprehended. Patrol- man Walter Malona corroborated the statements of his brother policeman. George Gilbert, whose bua Onorata passed, said the other driver was go- ing “pretty. fast.” Ha explained that he was discharging a passenger, mak- ing it necessary for the jitneur to take to the other side of the street. Onorata and several witnesses who were in the car claimed to have been ! going no faster than 20 miles an hour. Giantino, owner of the vehicle, said the bus could go no faster than -25 miles an hour. The horn was sound- ed at every intersection, the accused claimed. The decision of tha court was ap- pealed from and will be heard at the session of the superior court opening at Hartford on the first Tuesday in September. Policeman John Kennedy arrested John Pblinski on a drunkenness charge yesterday on Sexton street. He was fined $10 and costs. Julius Eisenberg parked his car on the left side of Main street yesterday and paid a $5 fine this morning. Po- liceman Clarence Lamphere notified the driver to appear in court. " At a session of the juvenile court, five boys were charged with taking apples from James Andrews’ plack in Belvidere. The oldest of the boys had Made an effort to “beat up’ An- drews’ hired man for which act he received a punch in the eye, and when Judge Klett was told of his fresh actions he was given additional penalty in the form of a $13 fine. SINGLE G TRAVELS FAST Veteran Pacer Steps Mile in Free- for-All North Randall in 2:01%. Cleveland, July 9.—Pacing the fast- est time of the year, Single G, owned by W. B. Barefoot, Cambridge City, Ind., defeated one of the most formid- able fields of pacers in training yester- day in the free-for-all ‘pace sweep- stakes, the feature of the getaway Grand Circuit card at North Randall. His victory came in straight heats. Ed Allen took the veteran out in front early in each mile and he never was headed. He paced the first mile in 2:01%, and the second in 2:02%, winning easily, The last quarter of the final heat was paced in 29 seconds. Had Single G been pushed there is little doubt but that his time would have been faster. ' The time for the two miles not only is the fastest paced but also beats.that of the trotters for the season. Hal Malone furnished the only com- petition, but he was not good enough to wosry Single G, an odds-on favorite. ‘Whenever Hal Malone got close to Single G, Allen let out a wrap and Single G was equal to the emergency. Single G sold for $200 in a $280 auc- tion pool. Peter Beiler was -the only otifer favorite to win. at Track CATARRH OF THE BLADDER Quick (v sseleve Easy to Take—Safe and Successfil SEVERE ITCHING PIMPLES ON FACE Largeand Red. Could Not Sleep.

Dempsey was seen here last night en home in Salt Lake City. Jack Kearns will be my manager as long as I am a fighter” the cham- pion said. “He was my manager when I was fighting my way to the top. It I have my way he will make every engagement of my career.” Dempsey was unable to account for the report that Mayor Bader would pilot his future destinies in the ring. “Mayor Bader is a fine fellow and a fine sportsman but as for my mana- ger, well—" and Dempsey shrugged shoulders. Reports that he had been sued by his housekeeper for four hundred dol- lars the difference alleged due between five hundred dollars promised for her services and one hundred dollars paid by Kearns was denied by Dempsey. He said that Kearns had paid all bills and bas receipts to show for them. TROPHY REACHES U. S.

The Commuters’ as- sociation has thrown down the gaunt- let to the utilities commission in real earnest and their fighting blood is up to a boiling point. “If Perrett and Glemey can’t find a driver to operate a buss on the streets that day,” said Selectman W. B. Rogers, referring to July 15, “I will drive a car myself.” The remark was greeted with enthusiastic applause. The meeting was opened by Ma- thias Spies of Hartford, chairman of the Commuters’ association. Repre- sentative James R. Vietch, was sec- retary. Mr. Spies went into the early history of vehicular traffic and road maintenance and advised his. hearers for their rights, but he said, it meant fight in a civilized and Christian way, by means oI the courts and not by violence. “We have shown the pub- lic utilities commission we are not afraid of them,” he said. “We have won out so far and we will win out again.” Mr. Spies first broached ‘the sub- ject of a Commuters’ club, explained some of its objects and the method of carrying them out. The plan is a simple one. The club simply buys the jitney lines, each member buying a share of stock or a membership in the club. - This stock or member- ship, whatever is decided upon, will carry with it a card entitling the holder to ride on the busses of which he is a part owner. Final details will be worked out by a committee, of which Mr. Rogers is the head and reported at the next mmeeting to be held Monday evening. Bert Perrett, of th= Perrett and Glemey company told how jitneys operated by Edward French, of New Britain and others in different parts of the state have Deen handed the same raw deal by the commission. He said there are places where jit- neys have been barred from streets which are one mile from a trolley. He said there was not much to be gained by depending upon an appeal, because the appeal would not come up before the Degember term of court and a decision probably would not be handed down until January or February. He said ne had consult: ed legal advice upon the club propo- sition and found it was not a viola- tion of the law. B Herald Is Cheered. A statement by Selectman Rogers that the New Britain Herald had taken a stand in this city on the side of the people and the jitneys, was greeted with applause. “Do you suppose,” demanded Mr. Rogers, “that the New Britain Herald and all other papers that are interested in this proposition are so interested simply because, they want the busses to run?” “No, they are interested in the issue involved. They are interest- ed in the issue of whether or not a body of men can hand down any such a decision as this and get away with it. I don’t care if the Connec- ticut company carries us to Hartford for nothing, as long as a decision like the ones just rendered stands legal. I am only interested in whether a body of men can tell Perrett and Glemey or anyone else, ‘You must take your ttucks off the street.’ “I have no doubt Perrett and Gle- mey will be arrested if. they run their busses,” continued Mr. Rogers. “The Connecticut company has the best legal minds available and is pay- ing them fabulous salaries. They will comb the actiéns of this .meeting with a fine tooth comb in an effort to find legal flaws in it. But we are ready to fight. If Perrett and Glemey cannot find a driver to operate one of their busses on the 15th I'll run one of them myself.” “Let’s not bother with the smaller courts,” continued the speaker. We always get a raw deal in East Hart- ford anyway. Lets show the Con- necticut company we have as much money to fight as they have. Let's carry this fight to the superior court and if the decision is adverse, let’s go to the supreme court. No matter what they do, let's fight them in the higher courts. Let's get out injunc- tions if necessary.” “The public utilities -commission isn't feeling any too good over this,” said Mr. Rogers. “The question troubling the members now s whether or not the public utilities commission will be retained. This will be the issue at the election of senators and representatives next election.” Special Privileges. never expected and never expect to see such a thing out,” said Former Selectman Schieldge. “Years ago the raisad the funds and main- tained the highways. Now the trol- ley system gets special privileges from the state and the minute they receive their franchise they become organs for speculation.” Referring to the trolley charge of 20 cents between Manchester and Hartford, Mr. Schieldge said it ought not to be more than a nickel. “We are paying more for watered stock in running the trolley lines about this state than the original cost of operating the lines”” added the speaker. “There is politics involved in this,” said Mr. Rogers. Edward French, of Torrington, who operates the West Main street buss lines, was present at the meet- ing. Mr. French has gone to Hart- ford this morning to consult with Attorney Josiah Peck, whom he has refained to take up the fight in New Britain. Removing the jitneys would make a hardship for a number of local people, according to Mr. French. Tn some cases children would be re- quired to walk 20 minutes each way to school, despite the weather. Boxes will be installed on local buses Monday morning where those who want to see the jitney service continued can drop their contribue tions towards the expenses of the gantic legal battle now threatening.
