As far as the operation of the cars g0, the situation is unchanged and not a wheel has turned for three davs now.

Frank Morgan of New Loridon has been in conference witk |C. C: Eiwell of the public utilities commission and has learned from him that the commission has no authority {to step in in a matter relating to wages. The commission is prohibited under a certain rule from sitting in judgment or taking action in wage disputes. Another angle of the trolleymen's claim for higher wages was revealed Friday when members of the union stated that under the present operat- ing conditions of the road they are be- ing asked to work under regular !steam railroad regulations at pay less ithan the ruling price for common -.1- {bor. They sav that for some time i they have been working under a dis- | patching system just like the railroads and that they have to pass examina- {tion on a list of 186 questions on which they have to get a mark of 75 per ent. or over in order to hold their obs. From: their comment they show jthat they are skeptical that the fi- {nancial condition of the road is not what the road officials says it is and they have the feeling that one of the chief reasons why the road refuses to rbitrate is hecause it does mot want | to produce its figures before the board | I How Trolley Wages Compars.

Ban on Health Movie. Presentation in Connecticut of the motion picture film, Open Your Eves, |has been prohibited, when Dr. Chas. D.

Oljection to the picture, which is one of a large number now appearing on social diseases, was mot due to ques- tionable scenes but because it was considered to be lacking in cduca- I tional value, leaving no‘other excuse for the presentation, whether _com- mercially or otherwise, of a pieture of that nature. Authority for the action of the health department was taken {from an act adopted by the legislature ot 1918, which requires the approval by the department of any such films t obe shown in Connecticut.
