Brainard of Hartford, Arthur L. Kim- ball of New Britain, R. W. Perkins of Norwich, Perey T. Litchfield of Bridge- pert and Arnold Turner of Danbury. At the present time officers and memberg of the chamber are actively engaged in the support of legislation now under copsid- eration by the general assembly as a re- suit of the prospective passage of which it is hoped that trojley cénditions through- out Copnecticut gy be so stimulated as {0 admit ef mecessary repairs and im- provements, to say nothing of the pos- sibility of returns to the stockholders. The report tabulated according to different phases of the question is as follows: 1. Taxation. (a) All common car- riers engaged im sigilar business sheuld be similarly taxed. In Favor 178, Op- 2. (b) The tax upon all common carriers engaged in business similar to that of a street railway company should be based upon their net income. " In favor 169, opposed 3. % .

(b) All common carriers doing 2 street passenger transportation business, including electric street railway compan- jes and jitneys so-called, except those doing a cab or livery business, should be subject to the jurisdiction of the public utilities commission as to routes, rates of fare, schedules and service required, and no new trolley line, and mno jitney bus line, whether operated by a troiley com- pany or otherwise, should be established or authorized without a finding of public convenience and necessity, after a duly advertised hearing—by the public utili- ties commission, in faver 89, opposed 1. —or—(in substitution for “by the public a‘_e;’umifie, commission” in the last line) —by the public utilities commission if the line be essentially inter-urban, er by the municipality affected if the line be essentially inter-urban, or by the muni- cipality affected if the line be essentially intra-urban, with right of appeal to the public utilities commission by any party aggrieved. In fayor 94, opposed. 5. Abandonment and Municipal Own- ershop. 4a) Street railway companies should have authority to abandon non- paying lines, or parts of lines, with the permission of the public utilities commis- slon, after hearing.

(e) Not recommended by cemmittee: Municivalities or groups of municipalities should have authority to purchase, oper- ale or subsidize railway lineg or portions of lines which would be otherwise aban- doned and to build new limes, and to ralse the necessary funds therefor by gen- eral taxation, or by loeal assessment up- on the property immediately benefited. In favor 47, opposed 118. (d) Not recom- mended by comrrittee. Municipalities or groups of municipalities, should have au- therity to make service-at-cost contracts ‘with street railway companies.

In favor 135, epposed 34. It appears almost certain that mamy voting “opposed” on 5 (b) intended teo record their voteg against municipal ownr ership and not against the recommenda- tion of the committee against municipal ownership. .

The three men were arrested as the re- sult of 3 police raid at the home of Cote, No. 107 Rooseveit aveaue, whieh netted evidence in the shape of about 25 gallons of alcohol. 'When the police arrived at the Cote home they found Mr. Cote's five children in ‘house. They were engaged in washing dishes and deing oth- or housework.

A worthy cause and umited effort has always met with success in every American eommuiity. This campaign that we inaugurate here today is mot a political movement; it is ment for humanity. * ‘. ‘We are Americans and whatever con- cerns humanity ecolicerns us. We are here, my friends, to meet 2, con- ditien—a deplorable eondition—and net to discuss any theory, Today—yves, at thig very moment—countless thousands of men, women and children are starving or in danger of starving to death in Ireland. Little children are clinging to the tat- tered garments of their parents and gaz- ing piteously into their faees begging for food ; and:the distracted parents are standing by, tortured with the reflection that they ean afford no succor or relief 4o the dearest objects of their hearts. /Phis is ne fanecy picture, but, from the tmfll of éye-witnesses, is one of dally ‘oecurrence. ‘The people of Ireland appeal to Ameri- ca today—not as stranPers. The people of Ireland are so closely allied to us as to be almest part and pareel of us—bene of our bone and flesh of our flesh. The Irish soldier has fought by the side of the American soldier in every war in which we Lave been engaged—on every battle field from Quebec to Monte- rey—and ghared ia all the dangers and perils of the confliet. In battle, in the fulness of his strength and pride, little recks the soldier whether the hissing bullet sir , his sudden regquiem or the cords of lifc be severed by the sharp steel; but ne, who, dies of hunger, wrestles day by day with his grim and unrelenting foe, He has not the hot blood of the soldier to enliven him; for his foe like a srepent has exhausted his veins. America would be false to her best tra- ditions, if the appeal’that comes to us today were not answered. The people of Ireland are in urgent need of food and clothing and in addition they need the message from America—that message of material sympathy for the afflicted that has never been withheid.
