The of a hearing was hera as a result recent report of George W. chief inspector for the com- in which he stated that the passenger train service rendered by the New Haven in Massachusetts was “far gom being reasonable or satis- President Elliott, who pre- sented the New Haven's side of the case, said in part: ‘As all the money wrthin the con- trol of the company is now being spent for improvements and payments of debts, additional revenue should be permitted by increasing the rates now charged for transporting pas- sengers and freight, for the use of freight cars used as storage houses, and for the carriage of mail and parcels post. “The various commissions, both state and national have been investi- gating and analyzing New Haven affairs for a number of years and have criticized them. The manage- ment is trying to adjust its affairs to meet the suggestions and eriti- cism. The time has come in the United States as a whole, and par- ticularly in New England, which many of us in the business world have been expecting, namely, when transportation is not sufficient for the needs of the country. The rea- sons for this are nation-wide, and they are accentuated in New England by the peculiar conditions of the last five years. Addressed Trolley Employes.

Indiscriminate and unaunthorized excavation of the streets of New Lon- don, either by a public service cor- poration or By any municipal depart- ment is to cease. An order to this ef- fect was issued Thursday afternoon by Mayor Ernest E. Rogers in accord- ance with the provisions of the city charter. Hereafter, it was announced by Mayor Rogers, no excdvation shall be started until the highway com- missioner is duly notified and his offi- cial permission obtained. The announcement was made at a conference of public service corpora- tion and city officials in the mayor's office in the munjcipal building.

Bird of the Con- necticut Power Co., General Manager Callaghan of the Shore Line Eiectric Railway Co., and General Manager E. C. Ford of the Southern New England Telephone Co. Mayor Rogers explained that he had hoped to have a meeting of this char- acter the past year but so many other problems had arisen that it was im- possible to do so. For a long time he had felt that street excavation had not been carried ‘on in the most ad- vantageous or economical manner or for the greatest convenience of the traveling public. He believed there should be a spirit of cooperation between the public vice corporations and the municipal departments in this respect and that the only way this could be obtained is to place the sole authority in the hands of the highway commissioner, as expressed in the charter. Mayor Rogers then informed those present that they were to consider an order to this effect in force immediately. As to emergency cases Mayor Rogers in- timated that Highway Commissioner Darrow would undoubtedly allow all reasonable latitude. As an example of his position, May- or Rogers stated that frequently in the past a street had been newly ma- cadamized only to be torn up again for water or sewer pipes, conduits or something of the sort. He considered this not only a loss of money but a nuisance. In the future before a street is ma- cadamized. the highway commissioner will notify both public service corpor- ations and municipal departments and they wil have an opportunity to in- stall any work which they had con- templated. The conference was one of the most informal and friemdly character and the various details incidental to the new order were discussed length. AT THE AUDITORIUM. Vaudeville and Moving Pictures.

The Time to Act You never should neglect a cold a single day, particularly at thls time of the year. Ondinary colds can be quickly cured, but if neglected are likely to prove serious. A cough that hangs on weakens the system and makes one liable to disease.
