If President MoChrter of the Pub- lic Service Railway Company carries out his. threat to take the trolleys off the streets of Paterson, N. J., ‘unless the jitneys are wholished there a State-wide strike of trolley men will follow, according to William Werner, Chairman of the Joint Con- ference Board of the Trolleymen's Union. Thia board is composed of the Presidents of all the trolleymen’s local unions in New Jersey. Speak- ing last night at a mas meeting of trolleymen in Newark, Werner de- clared that “if Paterson walks the streets, the whole State will walk the streets.” ‘The meeting was called as a demon- stration for William H. . Brennan, labor's candidate for re-election to the City Commission of Newark. “Hold yourselves in readiness for a mass meeting if Mr. MoCarter’s threat is carried out,” warned Werner, “The entire State is behind the trolleymen of Paterson, We are not only organ- ized to better our conditions but to protect our industry.” Harry Jones, President of ‘Trolley- men's Local No. 832 of Paterson, said that if the trolleys were taken from Paterbon they soon would be taken from West Hoboken, Jersey City, ang then even Newark. experiment was tried in Bridgeport. Conn, and it was shown that the public could not get along without street oars. John L. O'Toole, assistant to Presi- dent McCarter, said to-day that so far as he knew the statemont of Werner about the strike would cause no change in the company’s plans.

While visiting in freland Archbishop Clune took part in unofficial negotiations look- the Sinn Fein, “I say with regret and reluctance,” the Archbishop is quoted as saying, “that every infamy perpetrated by Ger- many during her occupation of Belgium has been renewed and repeated, and in nome cases exceeded, in Irland.

A blacklist of persons who are to be assassinated is placed in the hands of those in the pay of the Crown, which is responsible for the altuation.

IN. |BOOST IN GAS RATE |SHOT TRYING TO ROB PAS Average Is Based on the Fig- ures Taken From Fifty- One Cities. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19—Food now is 31.6 per cent. cheaper to the consumer than six months ago, Bthel- bert Stewart, Government price ex- pert, announced to-day. “The decline seems to be a roally substantial development in the gen- eral price situation,” said Stewart, “and not based entirely on seasonal changes which are Bo often decep- tive, It is impossible, of course, to predict how long it will continue. Food prices six months ago reached the peak of the period in whioh markets have been influenced by the war.” Stewart's announcement is based on price data collected by the Labor Department continually from fifty- one big cities on nearly fifty articles of food. The prides are averaged. ‘The decline of 31.5 per cent, an- nounced therefore is an average. Some foods have declined in price) more than this, Potatoes and sugar for instance, Mumped more than 80 per cent, each. “These reductions were due to the fact that sugar and potatoes in June ing at exorbitant, purely prices which ‘had id Stewart. to of prices out of proportion to their importance. But making allowances for these and other factors, it is now possible to regard the food price de- cline as & really important develop- ment of the general price situation. “As for the general cost of living, It seems to have experienced only a very slight decline #0 far as the aver- age family ts concerned,” HIS TWO CHILDREN Justice Ford Rules That He Must Await the Outcome of His Divorce Suit.

Brooklyn fears a jump in gas rates from 80 cents to $1.25, if Federal Judge Mayer approves the report of James G. Graham, special master in the Brooklyn Union Gas Company's sult against the Public Service Commis- sion, the Btate Attorney General and County Prosecutor. Judge Mayer will get the report to-day or Monday. It was made public yesterday by at- torneys for the company and Wall Street gamblers began to cash in on the prospect of the stock jumping from 61% to 57. lt ‘The report of the special master recommends that the 80-Cent Gas Law be declared unconstitutional on the ground that it was confiscatory. According to Mr. Graham's find- ings, in 1919 the cost of gas manu~ factured and delivered by the Brook- lyn Union Gas Company was ap- proximately 79 cents per 1,000 cubic feet. The cost increased in 1920, ac- cording to the report, to 86 cents At the present time, the report says, the coat of gas production has in- creased to $1.14. This cost, the report said, was without the return on the capitul of the company, The report also said the Public Service Commission had approved the company's capital of $15,000,000 in mortgdge bonds, §$2,- 000,000 in debenture bonds and 000,000 in stock. . Mr, Graham said further, in hie re- port, that he had found the assessed value of mains, pipes and the book cost of meters and the floating cap- ital was in excess of $28,000,000, upon which the company was entitled to a fair rate of Interest.
