1 most at the bottom of the list. the six New England states possessing the following territory: Maine, S3O4O l square miles; Vermont, 9,565: New
 aatampsh1re, s,So5; Massachusetts, s. 5l5; Connecticut, 4.99O; and Rhode Island, 1,250. In point of population Connecticut comes second, thus: Mas sachusetts, 3,366, ,416; Connecticut. l. 1l4, 756; Maine. 742, 371; Rhode Island, l 45S,610: New Hampshire. 43O572 and vermont. S55,956. If, for the sake Of
 further comparison, one imagines the popuat1ons to be spread evenly over the respective territories, Connecticut would stand third in point of density
 having population for each square mile or area as indicated, viz: Rhode Island. 4S4; Massachusetts, 4O5; Con necticut, 223; New Hampshire 46;
 Vermont, 37; Maine 9.
 By combining the street railway equipment figures with those of area
 and population, some very ilIuminat- ing results are obtained For instance if one could imagine all the existing
 tracks in each state. stretched in sin
 gle parallel lines across the state the
 number of square miles of territory
 which could be served by each mile of
 track would be as follows: In Massa-
 chuSetts 2.6; in Rhode Island, 3.5: in
 Connecticut 4.3; in New Hampshire
 BPS; in Maine 58.8; and in Vermont 72.5. Assuming still that the popula-
 tionS are evenly spread over the ter r1tortes, for each mile of trolley track there would be people to be served as follows: In Connecticut 961. in Mas
 sachusetts, 1,075, in Maine 1921, in
 New Hampshire 1.527, in Rhode Island 1s546, in Vermont 2,696 Under
 the same assumption, for each car in
 the state the number of persons to ba
 served would be. in winter: In Mas sachusetts 746, in Rhode Island 945, in Connecticut 962, in Maine 2,642, in New Hampshire 2,65S, in Vermont
 4,87S- In summer: Massachusetts, 735, Connecticut SS4, Rhode Island 1,149, New Hampshire ?, ,489, Maine 2,614, and
 Vermont 5,0S5- It appears here that the accomm odationS in summer, based solely on open cars and semi-coverti- bles, are far better than in winter, with the exception of Rhode Island and Vermont. Here again, however, 1t should be recalled that some lines operate closed cars altogether, so that in reality the summer crowds are ade- quately handled everywhere.
 In recapitulation, then, it appears that Connecticut, in area next to the smallest of the New England states stands second in point of trolley track age, car equipment and ratio of popu- lation per car, third in area per mile track, and first in amount of track per unit or population, and while in mod ernness O trolling stock the states trolley roads are not quite up to the minute, some ultra modern cars are already in service within her confines. and plans already iii existence will shortly place her very much in the running in that respect.

From the above table, with the ex- ceptiOn of Vermont and Rhode Island. 1t appears that the number of open cars is in excess of the closed cars to the opens only Rhode Island ap- pears as an exception to this rule. But of the four operating companies in that state. the Newport 6 Providence Company reports no open cars, and the Rhode Island Company reports over 100 more closed than open cars, indicating that on several lines closed cars are used all the year round.
 In the semi-Convertible column it IS seen that Connecticut reports none It is true that this new or rather newly popular type of car has as vet received practically no recognition in this state. yet the Connecticut Com pany does own at least five and the cars of the newly opened Waterbury & Milldale Tramway Company are of this eype.
 While Connecticut has as yet very few up to the minute cars, tentative plans were in the offices of the Con nectiCut Go. at the time of the big New Haven dissolution two years ago, plans calling for semi convertible cars of the newest design. The reorganiza- tion has now so far progressed that those pans have been again taken up with the result that within the last few weeks bids have been asked for on a lot of g cars most of which it is ex- peCted vii be ready to put in service by fall. These cars are to be similar to the splendid cars of the Waterbury and MiIldale Tramway Co.,, previously referred to, which represent the last cry in the car builders art, cars of the semi i-converuble variety, with the much lauded round roof.
