TRAFFIG MEN IN FAVOR OF BETTER EXPRESS SERVICE| Bureau Wants Car Sent Farlier in Day From Hartford to New Britain .At a meeting of the New Britain Traffic bureau tomorrow noon at the New Britain clubs the members will discuss express service to this city. Under the system now followed by the | “New Haven' road express matter coming to New Britain is shipped first to Hartford. It is then sent to this (eity, reaching here on the 8:20 a. m. train. Members of the traffic bureau believe the service would be im- proved if the express matter could be sent to this city on an earlier train. A report on the subject will be made by Walter L. Bell. The bureau will also discuss the shuttle train betweén Berlin and this city, The impression has + ground that the “New Haven' road is trying to duplicate the famous "“Toon- erville Trolley” and members of the traffic bureau are of the opinion that conditions could be improved. E. K. Burr will lead the discussion on a proposed joint meeting of the +New Britain and Hartford traffic busi- ness. It is probable that the two | bureaus may arrive at an understand- ing so that they will work in har- | mony, their problems being practi-| cally identical. Other subjects to come up at the | meeting are the increased rates on commutation books, loading ‘'New Haven" express off the system and | the United States freight traffic asso- | clation. A nominating committee will be appointed.

A later gathering with a kindred object had convened at Annapolis in 1786 in pursuance of a resolution of the legis- |lature of Virginia.

C. E. French, traveling organizer, was in New Britain today in connection with the campaign. According to a statement by Mr. French, “the league is the outgrowth of a very generally expressed senti- ment against regulation, that is, the enactment of laws seeking to curtail the personal liberty of individual citizens. The league is a voluntary association of American citizens in- terested in the promotion of Ameri- can ideal of liberty and opposed to the enactment of vicious ‘freak’ laws, The immediate object of the 'league is a modification of the Volstead pro- hibition enforcement act which will permit the manufacture, distribution and consumption of beer and light wines of moderate alcoholic content.” Mr. French sald that more than half a million signatures have been secured for a petition which will be presented to congress.
