Since it is the wish of the powers that provisions of the present zoning map be the measure of what buildings may or may not bejerected in certain dis- tricts without causihg depreciation in the value of adjoining propers ' ties, it is expected that the usual number of complaints will follow decisions of the committece. The new ordinance provides that the council shall review each case “speedily,” and a strict interpreta- tion of that clause will not permit | of delays until there is a volume of building business- ready for actlon. Whether the new ordinance will he an improvement over' the old remains to be seen, but it is certain that there will be fewer complaints from those in publig¢ office, the ma- jority of “kicks” against the old order of things having originated among members of the common | council. | In view of the fact that John H. | Trumbull ha$ been elevated to the | governorship, it is ot broad general ;\n(-‘r@sl to note his opinions on the business prospects for 1925 which he | has written for *“Prumbull Cheer,” | the house and trade organization of the Trumbull Electric Mfg. Co., of | Plainville, of which concern he is president. | Governor Trumbull is heartened | by Improved conditions in Burope. | A year ago at thistime it seemed almost impossible that the Europcan | nations could come to any bhasis of | agreement,” he writes. “To the | lasting honor of American brains and genius may credit be given for ie development of the reparatjons plan that Las been subecribed 16 by o interested natfons .. .. .. .. { "It is believed now that Europe is beginning to see daylight and will | eventually work out of the hectic and chaotic position in which it found itself after the war and again | take its place in the world's com- | mercial activities.”? Turning to domestic problems, | Governor Trumbull expressed hap- | piness at “the collapse of the I ollette bubble” which, he believes, “guarantees a continuance of the American eystem of-1wo-party gov- | | ernment which has proven'by ex- | | perionce to be the best plan ever | devised.” | | Further on, he writes: “Agricul- | which liquidated first and| st violently after the war, is com- | !'ing back and relearning the old les | | son that only supply and demand, | | scientific production and applica- | | tion pf business principles can keep any enterprise on a firm basis.” He | | believes the railroads are recov g strength and are enjoying great- public confidente. Governor Trumbull thinks the | tariff will help to stabilize business. | Touching on this point he says: “In | industry the improbability of an | carly disturbance of the tariff gives assurance of steady production and the maintenance of our high wage 1 on our American stand- ng." Referring to 1 own businces which may be accepted as an index | of his mind on national business, or Trumbull write Taking everything into consideration, we | are planning on somewhat fmproved business conditions in 1925 n\'rvr‘ 1924 as a whole but do not antici pate desire any hectic expansion.’ Even the rcpublican machine gets | its bumps. It got one right in the shoc absorber this week when, after a hurried conferenc chiefs decided not to introdu ¢ common council a resolution to | ppoint two prosecutors, each to act on equal basis regarding | sponsibility, duties and salary, | | At a private conference over the | ! piteh table at G.

It 1s believed that the pitch table conferces will introduce the resolu- tion as soon as thoy can get their courage up.s Visions of a dinner at home flitted away when a last-minute phone call from the city editor routed us from our pre-prandial rest and sent us flying through the streets to cover “some sort of banquet” A few minutes later we ‘were seated at the customary U-shaped table and digesting the usual fanciful dishes with Trench names which are always assoclated with such an affair. Between courses we surveyed our neighbors, One was a distin- guished-looking man, broad-should- ered, with mobile, smiling features and no hair, The other appeared equally distinguished, but had long locks like those of the supposedly typical artist. Upon further survey, we discovered that all those present look llke “big"” men, he-men of the .open spaces, be-spectacled profes- sors, bearded physicians, or others prominent in other lines. We mar- veled at this company,,and, having on knowiedge of the otcasion, won- dered which of all this gathering would bore the others with the after-dinner blah, At last the final course was dis- posed of, and we lighted up, but the others did not do so. Instead, as the slowest set down his emply coffee cup, they avose as with one accord and launched out with: “Un- accustomed as I am to public speak- ing, I fee] like the seasick passenger on the ocean liner (they stopped and surveyed each other in mild surprise, then resumed in unison) who, when asked if he were afraid he would die, (they seemed some- what ‘disconcerted, but continued) replied, ‘No. T am afraid that I shall not die’" All paused for laughter, but of course there was nobody to laugh. They began fingering their various sorts of whiskers and seemed at a total Joss, Yinally, one had an inspiration. “This is ah occasion when we can really bemefit our trade,” he sald. | “I move that this joke be stricken from our list as too common.” The motion was seconded and carried. Then they all continued, but still they chanted as one man, The pro- cedure was repeated agaln and again during the course of that unigue post-prandial orgy, and all the stock phrases and jokes were banned by this society, which we now realized s the Amalgamated After-Dinner Speakers assoclation. When they had done, we sighed with relicf, as | now we could go to other hanquets and not be required to hear the same old gags ., . . The next night we covered the nnual dinner of the Federated ellows of Filately. The speaker was our left-hand neighbor of the pregeding night. “Here,” we thought, “is our first chance at the new order of things,” Then he arose, lis listeners, and com- menced, “Unaccustomed as T am to ng, T am reminded of the scasick . . . ." Oh, well, why should he carry out the resolutions?

NEW YORK TRAFFIG STILL TIED UP Land and Water -Tmnspomtlon Almost at Standstill i New York, Dec. 31.~Severe weath- er conditions demoralized reglonal rallroad and local cross-river trans« portation facilities yesterday. Trdin service between Chicago and New York vla the northern routes suffered hours of delay due to deep drifts of snow which had to be cleared from tracks before trains could be allowed to proceed, Ice flows in the Hudson river jagimed ferries and diverted commutation traffic to, the tubes under the river which were crowded to capacity.

Crack tralns of all lines leading into New York from upstate were held up by the snow. One passenger Who reached New York after many houps of delay told of unusual experiences of passengers on his train which Was halted every few blocks, causing a delay of several hours. The érain had dropped its diner the previous night, he sald, and the only relief from hunger afforded passengers was a box of apples procured by a qor- ter. Syracuse was the polnt heyond, which trains could not get hecause of drifts of snow piled more than 10 feet on the tracks. Trains from the south likewise were delayed by the prevalent flood conditions in Geor- gla. In New York today an army of snow shovelers was mobilized for the day's work, supplemented by all the t mechanlcal street cleaning apparatus which the elty has at its command. The streets were more effectively cleared of the heavy coating of slush which annoyed pedestrlans ~ and | icopardized all traffic yesterday. ‘Warmer conditions are predicted for today, although the forecast is for unsettied weather Sunday, .
