It the action of the meeting is favor- able, Ndrwich will probanly go on a day- light saving schedule by common consent on Sunday. May 7. One pronounced ad- vocate of the daylight saving time for Norwich said Wednesday that he did not believe Norwich wanted to go through. the experience of Jast summer in finding that it was out of step with all the other large citles and all New England in its daily time through failing to adopt day- light saving hours. He felt that Nor- wich did not want to make itself an iso- lated example of inability to agree upon something that was for the general good and general convenience of the business community by falling to fall in with the daylight saving plan, and in his view it ould be rather a reflection upon the cit- izens of Norwich if they could not agree to do what other important communities in the state had so readily agreed to.

This subject was presented by Commissioner Robbins B. Stoeckel of Connecticut, and Connecticut's efforts toward safety Were outlined. At the termination of the meeting, it was predicted that many of the other eastern states would prob- adly follow the lead of the Nutmeg State in this phase of motor vehicle ad- ministration. A great deal of stress was lald on ac- cldents many of which were explained as they occurred in the various states, and the Connecticut department’s meth- od of issuing bulletizs to police depart- ments throughout the state was deemed the practical” manner of attempting a decided cxiting down of accidents due to capefesness. Accldent prevention is one of the underlying principals of a. motor vehicle laws, and it was believel that of late, public sentiment is belng sharply directed at the increasing num- ber of mishaps in which automobiles fig- ure. ‘The conference passed a safety reso- lution at the instigation of Commissioner Stoeckel, appointing agfommittee of ticee commissioners in thd states reprosentel to work out a definite safety prosramme which all the states would later co-oper- ate in putting into effect, and Commis- sioner Dill, of New Jersey, president of the conference, will shortly make the three appointments. The resoiution stated that as a Tesult of the incroasing number of accidents, many citizen or- ganizations desiring to assist 1n tae safe- ty work have become interested, and that the time was now ripe to recommend or- ganizations to combat motor vehlc.e ac- cidents In the states represented. Considerable disqussion was given over to the question of minimum age limits for operators. No action was ta<- en on this matter, because of various local conditions in each state. Amuther committee will shortly be appointed by President Dill, upon passage of a res olution to the effect that a law bo pass- ed in each state giving power ‘o the department having charge of motor ve- hicle licenses and registrations n the various states, to enter into deialled reciprocity agreemients.

The number of organized reserve officers to go to Camp Devens will be cut to an almost unrecognizable minimum and the number of students admitted to the citizens' military training camp will be also greatiy curtailed. Hence the re- cruiting officers and executive officers who are in charge of this work in the state are unable to proceed since they have no idea how many men will be handled by the government. The sentiment among army officers at the state armory seems to be, however, that the appropriations for military training When finally fixed by the senate will provide trainmg for approximately 2,500 men in the three camps, the na- tional guard, the 76th division and the citizens' military training camps at Devens. Out of this number over 3,000 will be guardsmen divided thus: Infant 1,458 officers and men; artillery, 1.055 cavalry, 166; ambulance company, 42; coast artiilery, 209; Battery A, Branford, As these figures are only approxi- mate, the number of guardsmen to under- go training at Niant'c and Devens will gifts.

BREACH BETWEEN THE DUBLIN AND BELFAST GOVERNMENTS Belfast, April 26.—(By The A. P.)— A breach between the Dublin and Bf- fast governments, which Ulster political forces declare may also entail a rupture of the London agreement, is indicated by a statement issued by the provisional government in Dublin, announcing that it is unable to co-operate with the Bel- fast government in an inquiry into the Irish railways. The London agreement alluded to in the foregoing was reached at the con- ference on Maroh 30 participated in by British cabinet members, Michael Colling and Arthur Griffith for South Ireland and the Marquis of Londondetry for northern Ireland.
