NEW TYPEWRITER RIBBONS
LOWER COST OF LIGHTING

NEW YORK-ln office lighting the
present tendency is toward general H.
Illumination and the elimination OF desk
lights. Greater personal efficiency has
been accomplished through lcsscned
cyeStraln caused by glare IRON poorly
shaped lamps and too brilliantly lighted
papers, and by tiresome readjustment
OF the eye in glancing from the bright
desk into the comparatively dark room
and back again.
But there are two things which are
sometimes ignored when changing from
local TO general office lighting, says
the Electrical World-the light tints
OF ledger inks and colored typewriter
ribbons. Where these remain in use
general lighting will cause complaint
unless IT be OF an intensity higher than
necessary Tor comfort in the reading OF
books and papers printed in black type.
II is usually cheaper TO change the ink
or ribbons than to maintain unneces-
satily high intensity 81 illumination.

CLEARS BRANDEIS IN :
RAILROAD RATE CASE

Washington, Feb. 10-James w.
Carmalt, chief examiner of the Inter
state Commerce Commission. before
ing the nomination of Louis D. Bran
deis to the supreme court bench, to-
day challenged the declaration of
railroad commission. that Mr.. Bran
.deis had concealed from him the atti-
tude he would take in arguing the
eastern freight rate case before the
commission. Z
Mr.. AThorne, who was associated
with Mr. Brandeis in the trial of the
rate case for shippers and the com
mission, declared yesterday he was
.tdunbfounded" when Brandeis at the
outset of his closing argument con-
ceded the contention of the railroads
that existing rate returns were made
Quate for the prosperity of the roads
and the best interests of the public.
There is one incident firmly fixed
in my mind said Mr.. Carmalt, ere
garding a conversation Mr.. Thorne
had with me on the second day of the
argument in the rate Sc. Mr.. horne
understand, stated that when the
commission fixed the allotment of
time for attorneys to argue the case
he had asked the privilege of being
permitted to follow counsel for the
shippers instead of opening the argu-
ment.
''Mr. Thorne asked me what Mr.
Brandeis' position. would be in the
gument. There was no doubt in my
mind what Mr.. Brandeis' position
would be. I had discussed it with
him and he had told me. There GER
tain1y was no disposition to conceal
it from Mr.. Thorne. I, am confident
that told Mr.. Thorne that Mr.. Bran
deis would take the position that net

not adequate, with special stress On

GERMANS CLAIM
MORE. GAINS IN
TRENCH BATTLES
Drive Against French Lines
Continued With Success,
Says Berlin.

Berlin, Feb. 10.-The capture from
the French of a large section of trench
northwest of Viny, in the Artois re-
gion, was announced by German army
headquarters today. A mine crater
near NeuvilIle, in the same sector, was
retaken. South of the Somme the
French gained foothold in a small
part of one of the German first line
trenches.
The statement saysa
Northwest of Vinny we captured a
large trench section from the French,
and in the neighborhood of Neuville
we conquered one of the craters pre-
viously lost. Fifty-two prisoners and
22 machine guns remained in our
hands.
tsSouth of the Somme several local
attacks by the French were repulsed.
Directly north of Becquincourt the en-
envy succeeded in obtaining a foot
hold in a small section of our fore
most line trenches.
'sOn Combres hill we destroyed an
enemy mine position by an explosion.
"a French mining operation north
east of Celles in the Vosges was un-
successful.
