Patron Calls Attention to Conditions Existing on Local Trolley

New Britain Oct oe ,1e

New Britain, Oct. 26,, '16. To the Editor of The Herald:
 \Wll you kindly permit me some of the valuable space in your paper to voice my condemnation of the manner in which some of the employees of the Connecticut company operate the cars entrusted in their care by the management. I would like to place particular stress on the East Main street line, which I believe to be the worst in the city, having had plenty of opportunity to observe conditions. During the storm of last evening, desired to catch a car home, so stood at the corner of Myrtle and Main street for the 9:O7 o'clock car leaving Central park. After giving the motorman the usual sign to stop I was surprised to see that the car suddenly began to travel at a much faster rate without any sign of the motorman intending to stop. That succeeded in getting on the car is in no way LID to the man with the con- troller, for his efforts did not in any way assist me. Having been incapi- tated by illness I do not cherish the idea of grabbing f1eeting trolley cars as they dart by, imperiling what remains of my life and limbs. It was noticed that this motorman wears glasses which would indicate that his eyesight is not the best, a very fine and capable man to have running a car leaving the public at the mercy of luck and fate if they succeed in escaping being ground under the wheels of the car. Conditions such as these will reach an end when the proper officials are appraised of the facts.

October.
(New York Sun),

These are days when every lad should be in a cornfield, making a wigwam out of cornstack, and sending field mice scampering. Pump kins have been gathered; a good thing or there might be no decent pies, for these frosty nights are hard upon the vine It is no matter whether you walk or ride along the highways. In either case the keen air makes tobac- co as appetizing as those smokes that Stevenson describes in "Travels With a Donkey" Like him you may sink on pine carpeted woodland and inhale the balsam along with "as good a cigarette as ever I remember"

THE NAVY.

It was in the Roosevelt administra- tlon that the United States navy re- linquished it's claim as the third greatest in the world and fell into seventh place. Yet the Colonel never misses a chance to show what terrible condition the navy is in today. He is clamoring and hollering for a first class navy, as he puts it: "a navy navy was in February, 1909, when the battle fleet returned from it's cruise around the world"
 As a matter of fact the navy, under the Wilson administration, Is rapidly reaching the greatest stage in it's his- tory. The comparison between the seven years of Roosevelt and the three and one-half years of Wilson is not especially creditable to the Colonel. During his administration the navy tonnage provided for was but 428,279. Wilson administration there has been provided a tonnage of 1, 1,014, ,666. The highest appropriation under Roosevelt was made in 1909, when $40, ,O42, ,655 was appropriated. The lowest in the Wilson administration was made in 1914 when the sum total was S148,- 254,332. That was the first year of demo rule since Cleveland This year the Wilson administration ap- propriated s313,3OO,O95 for the navy, and bids were received yesterday for greatest in existence.
 Tn accordance with President Will sons comprehensive naval program, g. program of preparedness such as this country never before undertook, the battle fleet of the United States will, within three years, be brought up to a total of 587 vessels, all fight ing craft.
