S. Prohibition Regulations on Ships. Parls, Oct. 16 (By Associated Presa)—Formal advices that the sale of liguor on.ekips is prohibited within the three mile limit in United States waters was received by the American embassy today for transmission to the French government. The state department message made no reference, it is stated, to any pro- hibition or restriction on the posses- slon of liquor on ships. It therefore had heen understood in French government circles and by French shipping that it was the Washington intention to apply the ruling strictly so that even the pos- session of liquor, whether under lock or seal, would be a violation of the law even if no liguor had been sold. This ruling was received in French official and shipping circles as in no way interfering with the customary practice on vessels of ceasing the sale of lfquor when the three mile limit had been reached. It was also looked upon as not interfering ‘with issue of customary rations of wine to the crews of French ships. M. Rio, under secretary of state for merchant marine said: “On the face of it, this leaves the situation where it was before. There has been much ado about nothing. Now French ships can carry the liquor they wish, provided they seal the stocks when they reach the three mile limit.” WANT BETTER SERVICE Residents in North End of City Want N 15 & v v v U 113 13% 62% (Putnam & Co.)

The schedule of the Connecticut Co. at present provides 15 minute service from 6:15 o'clock in the morning until 6:22 o'clock and from 11:52 o’clock in the morning until 7:22 at night. During the morning and in the evening until 1207 o’clock at night the trolleys are rffn on a half hour schedule. The north end residents feel traffic on the trolley cars is heavy enough to warrant a 15 minute schedule sHfoughout the day and evening. At present if those llving in Belvidere attend the theater, which is usually out at 10:15 o'clock, they miss the 10:37 trolley and it is necessary for them to wait until 10:37 o'clock for the next one. Francis street resi- dents also complain of the fact that the last car operating on the 15 minute schedule leaves that street at 23 o'clock at night and if they are | not able to get this one there is not another until 7:52 o'clock.
