I have noted with satis- faction,” reads the “that the attitude of the public utilitie commission towards fitney serviee in New Britaln has been favorable and 1 belleve this form of transportation will be of great help in expanding our city." Undoubtedly tha Mayor had in mind the recent granting of the right by the jitneys to extend their serve fce In the North End. Tt is pos- sible, too, that he expects some favor- able actlon by the utilities commis- slon when and if the matter of jitney service in the Jerome street section {8 again brought up. That there is need of such service out there quite as much as there was need of extend- {ng the service in the Cariton street locality, there would seem to be 11t- tle question, There is splendid op- portunity for further development in that quarter, beyond Jerome street, were there better means of transpor- message, tation. And in conneotion with the atti- tude of the commission mention should be made, in fairness, of the petition approved by the common council to allow the American Hard- ware Corporation to lay a_crossover track from the south to the north side of Park street just below Frank- 1in square, Of course this track wiil be a great henefit to the corporation, and the city quite properly desires to do anything within reason to con- snlt the welfare of one of its great {ndustries. But a person has to stand but for @ moment on Franklin square and note the beauty of the grounds of the American Hardware Corporation ahout its offices lhflr?. to realize that it is giving up something of considerable material and artistic value when it agrees, as it has done, to allow a strip to be cut from those grounds in return for the favor of the crossover track, in order to make the city's thoroughfares at that point more convenient. The arrangement seems to be a falr one for the cor- poration and for the city, but the corporation’s willingness to co-oper- ate with the city 18 no less than the city's willingness to favor the corpo- ration. LAWYERS AND CLAIMS, This delicate matter is here mented upon purely in the interests of the individuals who make up the people of the city.. There are three classes concerned—the individuals of the city, the lawyers as a class, and the city government. It would be to| the city's interest to have no lnw,\-«rng except the corporation coungel know anything about claims against the city. It would be to the lawyers' in- gerests to have all claims against the | city placed in the hands of some| Jawyer lving in this city. This com- ment is made with the sincere desir to state what is best for the indi- | viduals of the city themseives; not what is best for the lawyers; not what s best for the eity treasury. 1t was stated at the common coun- cil meeting Wednesday cvening that the get com- one member, at least, wanted people to know they they would Just were that treat everyone fairly as much from the city if they not represented by lawyer; committes Another the claims would mem- ber doubted if the claimant in a cer- tain case would have fared as well without a absolutely true to It is not that would get lawyer's ser sny every elalmant in every case just as much if not represented by a laimant law yer, chiefly because every « does not know to imonnt he she is entitled, Tt the On the the claimant the gented by a lawyer. committee lawyer to know other hand in certai might got more claims committee if not repre Grant claims wants to Ix Granted that the common counci favor giving one who v | would | Jured something ever | jured person ha claim | against the city.

PADEREWSKI'S GIFT. The generous act of the famous man, Ignacy Jan Paderewski in send- ing a check for $500 to be used for the new Polish Orphanage is cited an example of recognition by a prom- inent man of the splendid standing in this city of representatives of his race. The people of this city appre- clate the continuing efforts of those in whosw veins flows blood of other races to make good American citizens of their people by holding high stand- ards before them, by assisting in tak- ing care of thelr own people and at the same time increasing their inte; est in things essentially Amerlean. It is not the isolated act alone that is emphasized, alhough that in itself de- serves emphasis, but it is rather with the desire to let those outside of this city who, have shown thelr apprecia- tion of the work being done here by the people of many other countries, know they are helping worthy causes when they give their support to such movements. Those especially Polish Orphanage are, of course ap- preciative of this particular gift. The generous benefactor should know, too, that all the people of the city join with those of his own race in an ex- pression of thanks to him, as they nations who their lhunks' interested in the join the people of all have cause to €xXpress to those who help causes they are vitally interested in which | WHAT ABOUT THE MEN?

R Associated Pross. an American newspaperman who was on the Shanghai-Peking express train wreeked by bandits near Suchow 12 days ngo but who cscaped before the foreign captives were taken into the Shantung hills, has arrived in Shang- hai with the prediction that unless thers arve unforeseen developments the prisoners will Le released in 10 days or two weeks He quoted Marcel Oliver Berube, the French captive who was in Tsao- chwang on a brief “parole” trom the Landit stronghold as saving: “T am satisfied that the one slight- | jcious move on our part or by bandits will est sus the Chinese troops the kill one or two of us, and send nm; the bodies." Lehrbas intends to return to Tsao- | with | chwang shortly. Negotiations the bandits are proceeding, he sald, with everything possible helng done. Communications to the foreign Nhostages still can be forwarded from Tsaochwang to the new and more re- mote camp of the bandits, Tehrbas| added, Reguarding the censorship, he explained that delays in the transmission of telegrams from Tsao- chwang was due chiefly to the single wire manned by a 63-year-old oper- ator who had to handle floods of offi- cial measages principally to and from Peking.
