That the New Haven road is suffer- ing a serious handicap by the lack of men to operate cars and to work in the repair shops was the statement made to the members of the public utilities commission by Vice President E. J. Pearson_ of the New Haven at a conference held in coh- nection with the investigation into the poor train service nuw. being carried on by the commission Vice President Pearson said that not only had traffic congestion reached a serious stage, but the engines of the company were not up to the required standard and the company was suffer- ing from a lack of motive power. Mr. Pearson also pointed to the fact that business on”the system had increased to such a point that it was difficult for the company to cope with the situa- tion. Mr. Pearson said everything was being done to improve train servi conference follows nouncement made _last Chairman_ Richard T. Higgins of an investigation which is being conduct- ed into all phases of the question of train service. Chairman Higgins an- nounced at the time that the investi- gation was not influenced in any way by the resolution introduced last Tuesday by Represetative W. M. Foord of Stamford, calling for a rigid probe into train service of the New Haven road. Chairman Higglns said that the New Haven was apparently not af- fected by the order recently served on the railroads of the country by the intrstate commerce commission to re- lieve th eshortage of coal, refrigerator, heated, ventilated and insulated cars. Th_interstate commission has told the railroads that, unless they should ap- point a committee within ten days with plenary power to relieve cendi- tons, the commission would act inde- pendently. Mr. Higgins believes the ruling does not affect the New Haven road, but will have a more direct bearing upon the Western roads. The ruling of course, is of an interstate nature and does not affect the work of the public utilities commission. LABOR MEN WOULDN'T USE COMMISSIONER’S OFFICE Claimed He Is Not Fully in Sympathy With Their Aims. Labor men of the state headed by Julius Stremlau, president of the on- necticut federation of labor, interested in labor legislation, and to promote unity of action on certain bills and amendments to existing labor laws met at the state capitol Wednesday. Some of the labor men objected to the use of the office of labor commissioner Hyde as a meeting place mainly on the ground that he was not fully in sympathy with their aims. An argu- ment arose among a group of the labor men, who arrived early, some of them criticising Mr. Stremlau for calling the meeting in Mr. Hyde's office. Others of the group who were in a _ critical mood seemed to base their objections to the opinions of others of their num- ber on the ground that some labor men sat down to dinner with Speaker Healy. Mr. Stremlau explained to the labor men who had criticised him that a week ago when he tried to get ac- commodations for a meeting the su- perintendent of the capitol could not promise him a committee room and Mr. Hyde extended the use of his of- fices for that purpose. Without know- ing the fact, Mr. Stremlau said. some of the labor men immediately said they would refuse to go into Mr. Hyde’s of- fice. ‘The room used by the labor commit- tee was used Wednesday afternoon by the labor men. Commissioner Hyde said he would not attend the meeting, which was an open one. EBENEZER LEARNED AGAIN PARK CHURCH TREASURER Reelected at Annual Meeting of Con- gregational Society at Chapel.

DEUTSCHLAND I8 FAR AWAY FROM PORT. Can’t Possibly Arrive in New London Before Friday. The arrival in port of the German undersea merchantman Deutschland will not be before Friday. This is said to be the best possibie time that the craft could make from Bremen- haven. In fact, any time after Friday the undersea boat may poke her nose into New London harbor and head towards the state pier, where many tons of cargo await her coming. It is also possible that the merchantman will not arrive before Sunday or Mon- y. After today, the crew of the North German Lloyd liner Willehad will not be allowed shore leave, which indi- cates that the Deutschland is expected by the officials of the Eastern For- warding company. Neither the T. A. Scott company nor the Thames Towboat company have been engaged by the Eastern For- warding company to go into the sound and convoy the Deutschland into port, as was the case upon the previous trip to New London. It may be that Cap- tain Koenig will not need a convoy this time, or it may be that not until Friday will the officials of the Eastern Forwarding company make arrange- ments to meet the submarine. It is the belief that the Deutschiand's commander will endeavor to make New London by Saturday, for that day is the kaiser’s birthdey anniversary. 1S TEMPORARY SECRETARY OF STATE ASSOCIATION N. D. Sevin Appointed to Fi Office During lliness of A. L. Post. Members of Connecticut regiments engaged in the Civil war, whose ranks grow thin as years go by, clasped hands and rubbed shoulders at the twenty-fifth annual meeting of the Association of Secretaries of Connec- ticut_veterans of the Civil war in Hartford, Wednesday. The meeting was called to order by President F. B. Allen of Hartford. Mayor F. A. Hagerty, addressed the association and welcomed the veterans who hailed from all parts of the state. “We do not forget,” said Mayor Haggarty, “that you once performed the duties assigned you and that you conts.ue to take interest in the af- falrs of this country. The people of the country are indebted to you in a measure more than they will be inde] ed to others who come afterwards.” N. D. Sevin of Norwich was appoint- ed temporary secretary to fill the place of Secretary A. L. Post, who is ill at the Soldiers’ home at Noroton. President Allen read his annual ad- dress to the association. MONTVILLE’S GRAND LIST. Assessors’ Report Shows Taxable Property Valued at $1,893,261.
