The ground in the Gardner prem- ises was higher than the sidewalk and rain or water from melting snow and ice, would flow over the sidewalk. The weather and temperature on Mon- duy, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are consistent with and tend to corro- borate plaintif’s testimony that the lce had ' covered the sidewalk since Tues day. The fce had not been removed, nor had any sand or ashes been put on it un- til after the mccident. The lce on the sidewalk was smooth and clear. The guttera were filled with snow. The plaintift had noticed that the rain of Monday had formed fce on the sidewalk, and walked carefully. She could mnot £vold the fee by going into the roadway. 1t doeg not appear that there was such a general formation of ice:.on the olty| sldewalks that thero would have been any, difficulty in sanding the fce In this place. I find that the plaintiff’s injurles were due to the negligence of the city in falling to sand- the fce within a reason- able time, and that the plaintiff used dun care. . The plaintifft used reasonable care in attempting a cure. She went to Dr. Cal- Iahan, a regular physician, and defend- ant's ‘medical wynesses testify that the X-ray indicates Wint his treatment was proper. 1L was suggested that Mr. Sweet, the bonesetter, might have af- terward given improper treatment. The evidence, howeveY, shows that the plaf tiff's hand, which waa useless when Dr. Callahan ceased his treatment ,improved materlally under the care of the bone- sotter, The plaintiff has Jost ono-quarter the of her iand and will probably never recover the full use. She has suffered with it a at deal, and also: suffered some injury to her side. She is a dressmaker and seamstress and cannot hold small objects firmly with her left hand, which renders it im- practicable for her to sew to advantage. She was disabled from doing any work for a long time and, being unable to dress herself for ten months, had to employ a nurse for that period at a charge of $10 a week. She also had out- for medicines and dogtors. Judgment ie rendered favor of the plaintiff to recover $2,200 damages.

Davis, secretary of the commission is as follows: The general assembly ha to law many of the recom acted in- nendations con- tained in eur report to you of December 21, 1920, which recommendations were supported by referendum vote of the chamber. We report herewith upon the ac the assembly upon the pro- posals the chamber, following here- in the arrangement and enumerations of sublects used in the referendum ba lot. The various chapters hereinafter re- ferred to are those of th Public Acts of 1921 1—Taxation— The chamber recommended: (a) Th all common carrier: business should be si That those doing a s! taxed; (b) t transport n business should be taxed upon their met | income; and (¢) That the tin ment of taxes due the state fr railway companies should be extended to July 1, 1923, without interest (although a very substantial number of members favored charging interest at the rate of. 5 per cent.) The legislature did not con: practicable to tax jitneys on their come, and hence did not adopt our su; gestion (a) As to (b) the law providing for the tax of street railways was riot al- tered so as to be based uppn their met come, as recommended, but a very substantial relief was afforded the trol- ley companies by Chapter 327 of the Pub- lic Acts of 192 hich lowers the tax on their gross incomes'from 4 1-2 per cent. to 3 per cent. The &pirit of our e for pay- street der it recommendation (c) has been followed in Chapter 268, which provides for the de- ferring of the collection of taxes -due prior to August 1, 1921; such baek taxes are to be paid by the companies’ paying to the state annually one-half of_ thelr net income, in adition to paying the tax for the then current year. If all taxes due the state from any company are paid befere July 25, 1928, Interest of only 4 1.2 per cent. is to be charged, but it mot liquidated by that time the un. Paid taxes are to bear interest at e rate of 8 per cent. 2—Paving— Chapter 314 changes the paving and the highway repair law to conform to the recommendations’ of the chamber, by re- leving trolley companies of the lability for the repairs of the highway, except such as is within eight inches of each rall. 3—Bridges— The chamber recommended that -trol- ley companies be relieved of the cost of building and maintaining highway bridg- es used by them, for Which in the past they have been liable for one-third the expenses. This recommendation was fol- lowed absolutely in Chapter 333 of the Public Ac H a—Jitneys— = Likewise Chapter 287 follows the chamber's recommendation, by authoriz- ing street railway companies to own and operate motor vehicles. Perhaps the greatest relfef to.the trol- ley companies is that provided for. by ¢ , which puts iitneys under the Jjurisdiction of the Public Utilities Com- ssion, as regards the routes, fares, speed, sehedule, continuity of service, and the convenience and safety of the passengers and the public. No jitney line may be established until, after hear- ing held in the town where the jitney pro- Doses to operate, the commission has is- sued a certificate that the public con- venience and necessiiy require its op- cration over such route. This & as ad- vised by the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce, §—Abandonment— A bill was introduced In the assembly permitting- street raliway companies to abandon non-paying lines, or parts of lines, as recommended by the chamber, never reported back by the com- tiec to which it was referred. The pur- pose of the bill is in large measure ac- complished, however, by Chapter 287 (See 4, ante), which allows trolley com- panles to operate motor busses for elec- tric ca ares— The only other measure recommended Ly the chamber, which was nag acted up- by the general assembly was one could not be considered as Mirectly the trolley companies An their nt financial predicamen although it would indirectly benefit the companies, by encouraging co-operation between the public and the companies. This recom- mendation was that rates of fare should be based upon grounds of municipalities 5o inter-related as to riding habits as to make up a system essentially distinct from other groups of municipalities with- in which the same company operated. The vote of the chamber on this measure was 35 to 34 in favor of the recommenda- tion. It is susgested that this matter be born in mind, w'/1 a view to propos- in~1é~"ngn:n when the legislature meets ummary— Tha cxact measure of the contributi of the n tate Chamber of Commerce to the procuring of the passage of all this legis- lation is, of course problematical. Your committee feels, however, that the fact hat the chamber conducted an impartial nvestigation and presented the facts to the public through the publicity given the reports of your committee to the board of directors had a considerable ef- fect in making the people of Connecti- cut realize the seriousness of the trol- ley situation, and also the fact that the trolleys were essential to them. It Is al- so feit that the unprejudiced advice giv- en by the chamber at hearings on each of the trolley bills held by the different committees of the general assembly was of value in as: ing the committees in b iberations upon the bills before their d conclusion, the committee would call your attention to the fact that every daily paper in the state, practically with- out exception, commented editorially in praise of the chamber in conducting its estigation. We cuote from ome such editorfal, which is tvpical of ajl. “The recommendations of the trolley investigation committee of the Connecti- MINISTERS OF PUT TANLAC TO TEST Well-Known Clergymen Tell What They Know To Be Truth About Medicine That Has Helped Them.

Tanlac, their words “carry conviction. They say what they know to be the truth. They have put Tanlac to the test of personal sermvice and have not found it wanting. The proprietors of Tanlac have re- ceived countless testimonials from people in every walk of life, earnestly commending it. Among them are a number of prominent ministers of va- rious churches. A few of ‘these are printed below: Rev. Charles H. Sanders, 1824 Fourth ave, Huntington, W.

Tanlac gave me a good appetite, strengthened my nerves, 1 sleep as well as ever— have gained five pounds.” Rev. A. L.

New, Baptist, Clarkston, Ga., says: “My wife had severe cramps, headaches, was very nervous, badly rundown, weak and thin. Tanlac caused her troubles to disappear—she never complains now.” ~Rev. A. J. Vallery, former super- intendent Rethany Home, Monroe, La., now of Memphis, Tenn., says: “Threa cars ago I had a general breakdown, with indigestion—had rheumatic paing in legs. Since taking Tanlac am re- lieved of indigestion—rheumatic pains have stopped—feel like a new man. I give Tanlac my unqualified indorse- ment.” : Rev. John M.

Their integrity cannot be doubted. They serve. their calling often at great per- sonal sacrifice. Tanlac has helped them —they v s0 because they want to do you good.
