CHARGING DOCTORS TOO
 MUCH FOR LICENSE
Claim Is Brought Up in Automobile
 Case in Meriden Court.

A novel point brought up in an in- quiry into his rights by q Meriden physician of interest throughout the state. as to what is deemed an in justice to physicians and others whom the law affects is interesting autcmO- bile owners. Physicians and other professional men are required by the state to pay rates charged for pleas ure car licenses for the privilege of running automobiles used by them in their business, while other owners who use their cars in business are given commercial rates. which are lower. The charge for a pleasure car license IS 50 cents per horsepower, while the commercial car fee is about thirty one cents. making the twenty-tw1O horsepower pleasure car license charge $11 and q commercial license for a machine of similar horsepower g.
 It is the contention that the effect of the law is discrimination. which causes professional men to pay what they term an exorbitant price. This. Of course, would not apply to those who use their machines for pleasure also.

GERMANS BATTLE TO
STOP FRENCH WEDGE

Paris, Jan. 9.-French attempts to
retake fortified positions at ST. Mihiel
and thus remove the German wedge
extending into their right wing along
the Meuse have resulted in serious
fighting in that vicinity.
AS a result Of series of night at
tacks line of outer trenches had
been taken from the Germans.
The new position gives the French
site for their artillery. They have
brought up additional heavy guns in
order to compete with those mounted
by the Germans on the site of Camp
de Romans.
These developments and an increase
in the fighting in Alsace are the only
developments reported.
In Alsace fighting is developing
along the line east of Belfort.
German lines at Steinbach-Ce Cernay
have held against all attempts of the
French to move farther forward along
wooded heights commanding main
roads leading to Altkirch.
Fighting, continuing in the Argonne
region, is still indecisive. Both sides
have made gains.

SERvIA WILL DEMAND MUCH
Wants Bosnia, Herzegovina and DaI.
malta Should Allies Win.

Rome, Jan. 13.-Contrary to state
ments that have appeared in the
newspapers of London, Paris and Ber-
lin that an understanding practically
has been reached without Servian
outlet to the Adriatic sea it is stated
in Servian official quarters that this
will not now satisfy Servia.
It is declared that such a conces-
sion would have been satisfactory two
years ago when the subject was dis
cussed at the London conference, but
that now, after war in which her
life and independence were risked,
Servia could not accept port or a
strip of coast. What she now claims,
it is stated, are the Servian regions
possessed by Austria, including Bosnia,
Herzegovina and Dalmatia, which
must be assigned to her through the
principle Of nationality.
