New Haven Proud
 of Its June Record

The record made by the so-ealIed commuter trains running into New York, on the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad during the month of June, 1915, is worthy of notice. Out of 29 such trains, IT arrived at New Yordx absolutely on time each day during the month. The total number of trains nun during the month was 754, of which only 19 G.52 per cent.) were late reaching New York The aggregate delay during the month amounted to 159 minutes, or an average of less than one-ha,h minute per train-an almost negligible quantity. These trains are run on a very sensitive schedule and the slightest interruption to one train is almost sure to reflect on the per formance of the trains following.

Gains of one to four points were made by Bethlehem Steel, Baldwin Locomo- tive, GeneaI Motors, Sears Roebuck U. S. Rubber and U. S. Steel. Active railways and various specialties show ed marked improvement over last weeks close. Trading was moderate but broad. London's prices were mostly lower.
 Noon-With the driving in of short interests, prices began to change. st. Paul fell off to 82 3-4, a fraction over last weeks low record. Other west ern stocks and Canadian Pacific also developed heavfness and Steel lost much of it's initial rise while war shares yielded a considerable part of their advantage. In the second hour trading became almost sthgnant with continued irreguIartty. The feature of the bond man ket was the future extensive offering of high grade rail- way issues for foreign account,

 The long look ahead has brighter prospects than the superficial aspect of the market presents at the moment. A careful canvass has just disclosed an estimate of American railroad se-. curities held abroad to the. amount of about 2,500 millions, at par. This is below the estimates prevalent here tofore and a great proportion of such holdings cannot easily be brought on our market There is an immense re- serve of American capital available to take care of all probable offerings. This country's foreign trade alone for the fiscal year will show a credit bal ance of 1000 millions. Current ex- cess of exports is at a much higher annual rate. When the FeIera1 Re- serve banking system was started, the gold holdings of the regional banks were $2O3, 3,o0o,0o0. To-day the amount is $255, 5,000.0O0. It is offset by only trif1ing obligations. The surplus re- serves of the National banks are Iarg- CT than at any time in the couhtry's history. Such plethora of capital and credit must some day flow into securi- ties that are returning 4 and per cent, at present. For idIeness of money violates economic laws

NEW JERSEYS Legislature has passed
Qhm providing for a vote on the
amendment to the State Constitution
with the idea of allowing women to vote.
1t is probable that the Governor will
approve the measure and the vote will
be taken in September. From now on.
therefor, the people may expect to hear
arguments for and against the PROPOSE
ton and the oldtime political meetings
and speeches will be outdone by those
who are on one side or the other of this
momentous question. From the present
point of view THE News cannot see any
good reason for refusing the the
right of suffrage. If every m avails
herself of the privilege it is difficult to
see where there will be any harm done
and it is possible there will be much
good accomplished, certainly conditions
cannot be any worse. The women have
for a long time wanted the privilege of
voting and have predicted the very
many advantages that would result.
Now there is a chance to let them prove
their assertions. Give it to them. One
of the strong arguments put forth is
that women who own property and have
great interest in the manner in which
the finances of the town are handled
certainly ought to have as much say
In the matter as the fellow who loafs on
the streets every day and is frequently
hauled up before a court at the expense
of the taxpayer whose money he votes
away. The law allows women to serve
a Board Of Education, but they cam
have their sisters vote to aid in put !
ling them there. There are many argu-
that will be furnished in favor,
md some against women voting before
he election in September, but as a start
II we say let them have a chance and
,iye them the privilege they seek.

REPRESENTATIVES, of the railroad
companies are going through the state
presenting for signatures petitions asking
the Legislature to repeal the full crew.
bill. In addition tt this the companies
are using the newspapers to publish ar
guments in favor of their request. There
ought not to be any h~esitancy in sign
ing the petitions. indeed there ought not
to be any objection on the part of the
legislators to repeal the measure. 1t has
been given a trial and has proved con-
clusively that it has been an unjust i'm
position upon the railroads, entailing
extra, unnecessary expense. The labor
unions will oppose the repeal because
the law makes it necessary for the rail
roads to employ extra men even though
they are not needed. There are MANY
other systems besides the full crew.
idea which might be employed to COM
pei the railroads to do something to
benefit the people. The use of newspapers
instead of resorting to the old time
lobby is q c~ommendable change.
The New York Sun puts the matter in
q nutshell thus: A full crew law is a law
to mulct railroads and make them throw
away money to maintain drones. 1t is
. statute forcing the payment of a good
deal for nothing, wages without work. |
What, if any, public sentiment now SUPP
ports such a law of injustice and statute
Of political economy standing on its
head? The railroads of New Jersey
and Pennsylvania are going to
make a frank, Eabove-board campaign
against these lettering and foolish acts.
The people of Missouri have directly re-
pudiated the full crew bleeding Of rail
roads and encouragement of loafng.
Are the Jerseyites and PennsylvaniansI
less shrewd, intelligent and just then the
Missourians?
