MONTPELIER. Vi. Sept. 1.-THE
statement recently published that there
is a noticeable increase in births
among old New England families and
attributing this increase TO President
Roosevelt's anti-race-suicide appeal
seems 10 be borne out by facts in this
part of New England.
OF course. on such a delicate subject
names and specific instances cannot be
given. but a glance over Washington
county. VI. which includes the cities
OF Montpelier and Barre. indicates that
the descendants OF old New England
families in this section, many Of whom
have been childless for years, have
again gone into the business of raising
children.
This impression was strengthened this

clans would not hazard an opinion
whether or not President ROOSEVELT

crease in the birth rate, but the increase
is apparent.
This does not apply 20 families OF for

His Idea Is to Have Railroad Rates
Settled by Judiciary
Proceedings.

call for meeting of the Senate
Committee on Interstate Commerce TO
meet on the 18th of November. has just
been issued by Senator Elkins chairman
of that committee. The purpose of SEN
ator Eikins in calling his committee to
meet this early in advance of the be-
ginning OF the session OF Congress is
to frame bill 20 regulate railroad rate
differences. In other words. the object
Of the proposed measure is to settle tie
question of railroad rate legislation. and
Incidentally curtail the powers of the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
An Interstate Court.
Senator Elkins would have all rate
acknowledgements and freight-refer-
red to court of interstate commerce.
composed of nine judges. one from each
judicial circuit court of the United
States. But if this plan should meet
with objection. Senator Elkins would
have such disputes referred TO circuit
court judges without the creation of a
new court.
Chairman Elkins is quite confident
that his committee can frame a measure
within two or three weeks that will
meet the approval of his colleagues and
pass the Senate after a reasonable de-
bate. Such a measure, he thinks. would
answer the demands for legislation to
regulate railroad rates
If the Senator's idea is adopted. the
Interstate Commerce Commission will
not be allowed TO take any action in
| the matter. Each circuit judge will try
/ all cases which have their origin in his
circuit. There will be an appeal courl
| composed of the other eight circuit
! judges. who would convene at regular
periods to dispose Of appeal cases. and
their decree reviewed only by the Su.
