Dissolution Suits May Be Brought. It is understood, however, that de- partment officials are prepared to in- stitute speedily a _dissolution suit against any manufacturers within fed- eral jurisdiction who are believed to bave conspired in restraint of trade or to effect a monopoly. At the same time it was made clear that the evi- dence adduced by the commission would be thoroughly digested so that no - injustice might be done manufac- turers innocent of illegal practices. In addition, department officials are understood to be preparing to ask for criminal indictments, should an ana- sjs of the evidence warrant such ac- on, and it is believed the criminal Brodsedings, if undertaken, would be pr d ahead of the civil procedures. Oficials say they are handicapped b the that more than half of the print ser consumed in the United States is produced in Canada by man- vfacturers whko would be outside the jurisdiction of American courts in any pLroceedings that might be deemed ad- visable. This condition, however, would not apply ot American agents or such manufacturers.

ASKED TO VOTE ON RAILWAY REFERENDUM Norwich Chamber of Commerce Will uss Railroad Wage Fight Ques- tion. Bringing the subject of disputes be- tween railways and their employes home to business men, the Chamber of Commerce of Norwich, Connecticut, through a referendum sent by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, is asked to go on record for or against the following questio: Shall existing law be so amended or supplemented as to require full public investigation of the merits of every dispute between railroad ear- riers of interstate commerce and their employees, to be instituted and com- pleted before any steps tending to the interruption of transportation shall be attempted ? Shall_existing law be so amended |, or supplemented as to provide that upon any board of investigation or a bitration of disputes between railroad carriers of interstate commerce, the employers and employees shall have equal representation and the public, as having paramount interest, shall have a majority representation? Should congress establish 2 perma- nent statistical division under the in- terstate commerce -jcommission to study and compile statistics relating to wages and conditions of service up- on railways, the records and services of this division to be immediately available to boards of investization or arbitration considering disputes be- tween railways and their employees? With the referendum is carried a report by the national chamber rail- road committee of which C. F. Weed, president of the Boston chamber of commerce, is ehairman. This report backs up President Wilson’s legisla- tive program for a settlement of rail- road differences and advocates an af- firmative answer on the part of com- mercial _organizations affiliated with the national chamber to the above questions.

At Sacred Heart church there will be mass-at 7 o'clock and devotions at 7.30 o'clock this (Fridey)- evening for the first Friday of the month. Ciub Entertained. members of the Club No. 2 e have our evening meal and our peri- od of recreation and leisure after nightfall. In effect we throw away daylight and substitute for it artificial heat and light which are but inferior derivatives of the sunlight we thought- lessly discard. ‘The amount of daylight which we do not now utilize cannot be _precisely stated; because the hours of daylight not only vary with the seasons but they differ by as much as an hour in the same day in the northern part of the country and the southern, and they iengthen as altitude above sea level in- creases. Whatever the part of the country, however, the morning work period- begins so late that the work period which follows luncheon cannot bave as much sunlight as occurs be- fore noon, and in many cases ends in darkness during an important part of the year. The significence of these facts ap- pears when we recall that, in midsum- mer, if the work day begins at 8 a. m. and ends at 5 p .m. almost hours of sunlight have passed before the workday begins and but two and |2 half remain after its close. Thus, four hours of sunlight are used in the morning for sleep and for the “trans tion from bed to street.” The period at the end of the dayv. with its great value for development of human ef- ficiency ,encouragement of human in- tercourse, and improvement of social relations, falls partly under artificial light even in the most favorabie sea- son of the year, and at other seasons comes altogether after nightfall. If the workday ends at six, the are still more undesirable, as subse- quent hours of daylight are shortened and moreover in a portion of the year the, end of the workday, when work- ers in all occupations are most weary and most need favorable conditions, is reached under artificial light. As European cuntries generally moved the clock forward an hour during the past summer, and will do likewise next summer, the differ ence between the business day in Bu- rope and in the United States will be further accentuated unless action is taken in the United States. It would seem an anachronism that, al- though we have decised means for in- stantaneous communication with Eu- rope, we should continue to have our business day so. much later than the Buropean business day as to impede our financial and commercial trans- action, especially at a time when our relations with Europe have taken on greatly enlarged importance. With these circumstances in mind, the committee recommends that clocks in the United States should be set one hour ahead of the present “standard” time. The greatest amount of daylight {now unutilized in our active hours comes between the equinox in March and the equinox in September. Ac- cordingly, the proposal would confer its greatest advantages between these dates. Sent to State Farm at Own Request.
