DEFEAT CROSSING BILL.

After Il spirited debate the house de-
feated the railroad crossing act. house
bill No. 1913. by Hitchcock, providing
that warnings and safety signs must
be placed at railroad crossings, II was
apparent from the drift of the debate
house members feared that the rail-
roads had something to do with the
measure, and that ii placed the cost of
installing the warning signals at cross
inRs on the counties rather than on the
railroads. Hitchcock, while not against
the principle contained in it, ques-
toned the ACCESSIBILITY Of passing 1t
before an amendment had been Of
fered, to clear the matter OF cost.
Speaking Of railroad crossings in
general and the carelessness of the
public In insisting on driving over them
with teams or automobiles while a
train was approaching, Grice, who is an
engineer by trade, said that many
times he had directed a passenger
train over crossings while travelling at
60 miles an hour and the carelessness
of people near the crossings at such
times was remarkable. He said he fa-
vored the bill because 1t would protect
both the public and the railroads. II
am n conservative man." said Grice,
speaking of his general putation as "A
locomotive engineer and the care he
exercised in handling q train. but the
way some people act when approaching
crossing in the face of an approach
ing train, brands them as fools, and all
the signs put up would not save them"
He admitted having driven n passen-
ger train over crossings where stops
were supposed to b. made but justified
the act by saying he saw the way clear
as no one WAS apDrDDchiug

for Efficient Services

Washington, Dec. 5.-The Woman'a
Committee of the Council of National
Defense is engaged on many impor-
tant phases of war work. For ons
thing, it is cooperating with the
Commission on Training Camp Activ-
tiles, and in this it is receiving valu-
able assistance from authorities and
organizations in Connecticut. A re-
cent bulletin of the Woman's Commit
tee tells about this as follows: !
ut may fairly be said that most
important part of our activity SO far,
is girl saving, Or production for wom-
en-. Perhaps nowhere does this show
more clearly than in Connecticut. Tha
chairman of health and recreation il
also on the committee of the State
Council of Defense known as the sani-
tation and medicine committee. In
this way she is able to bring matters
in which women are especially tnterN
ested imm diately to the attention OF
the council. AS early as July it was
! thus possible to secure the appoint
ment of five policewomen for duty In
and about the military camps and
| naval stations. The chairman, DR..
Parker, obtained the first commission
and now acts as supervisor for the
other four women. These policewom-
| en- make numerous home investiga-
TONS take undesirable girls and wom-
! en- found in or near the camps into
custody, and endeavor to handle each
case separately. They make weekly
reports to the supervisor and to the
department of state police. DR.. Par
ker in turn makes monthly reports to
the State Council of Defense.
"A survey has been made of insti-
tutions willing to take mothers and
babies following confinement, with a
view to being prepared for a possible
increase in illegitimacy. The machin-
cry of the Connecticut Society Of So
cial Hygiene Is at the disposal Of the
committee. A questionable has been
prepared dealing with juvenile de-
linquency and immortality among
young people. This will be sent to
every town in the state with q view
to ascertaining whether an increase
has been noted since the beginning Of
the war. In addition. a new activity
has been started in the local travel
ers' aid groups organized in each
town for the purpose of acting as a
bureau of information and advice for
girls and women intending to visit
Camp Devens, at Aver, Mass" "#
Connecticut, the home of the sub
marine in this country and the scene
of operations by Simon Lake, one of
the great submarine inventors, maybe
chosen as the location Of scheme to
defeat the German submarines. SIAM
ford, Conn, is suggested as the best
site for a huge shipbuilding plant
where vessels Of 5000 tons should be-
built Of concrete. The suggestion
comes from a Norwegian, who offers

expectation Of gold has not been per-
mitted except in those cases in which
unusual circumstances have seemed to
justify the issue of licenses for its
export The department has not,
however, rested content with Mega
tive policy of prohibition, but has in
itiated q series of negotiations having
for purpose the substitution of ar
rangements which, while holding the
necessity for large exports of gold,
would yet stabilize the exchange be-.
tween the United States and neutral
countries"
Although the nature of these nego-
tiations was not disclosed, it is under
stood they relate to investments in the
United States by neutral capital and
to restriction of imports from neutrals.
The secretary explained that the
United States now holds more than
one-third of the worlds gold none
tary stock
Praising the policies of the farm
loan system, Secretary McAdoo said
some method must be devised for dis
posing of farm loan bonds as soon as
they are issued in order to avoid sus-
pending the loaning operations of the
banks. He recommended also that
the limit of $4,000 imposed by law
upon loans to any one individual
should be increased to $4,000
Up to one week ago credits extend
ed to allied governments amounted to
$3,883,9OO,OOO. The latest loans have
been at IA per cent, but Secretary
McAdoo explained that this rate in
turn will be further increased in case
there should be higher rates of inter-
est paid by the United States during
the continuance of the war for the
moneys that it may invest in the pur-
chase Of foreign obligations"
Both Liberty Loans this year-one
aggregating $2,OOO,o00,o00, and the
other $3,80S, 0,OO0-have been IA
ance Of short-time certificates in ad-
vance of loans. The bond financing
also was aided by the designation Of
1908 national and 1,343 state banks
to receive deposits on account OF their
subscriptions without the necessity OF
making applications and being desig-
mated each time they subscribe to GER
tificates and bonds and desire to pay
for them by credit.
The humanitarian benefit of the
soldiers and sailors insurance system
was praised by the secretary.
The Internal Revenue bureau, Mr.
McAdoo said, has stupendous task to
collect $3,400,00O,0OO during the cur
rent fiscal year, and is accomplishing
this largely with the guidance and
counsel of business men and lawyer
advisers.
To render the customs service more
efficient, it was suggested that COM
plete revision be made of customs
laws, eliminating certain officials and
com bining duties.
The International High commission,
Secretary McAdoo said, has done ex-
cellent work in arranging economic
and financial transactions between
the United States and South American
countries, and $4,000 should be ap-
propriated for it's continuance.
The Public Health service and
Coast Guard, branches of the Treasury
department. have turned their atten-
lions largely to assisting the military
and naval authorities in recent
months.

UNCLE SAM LARGE

Washington, Dec. 5.-Uncle Sam is
the greatest shopper in the world. It
is up to him to first clothe the army
and navy and then maintain it with a
ration that will enable the men in
Americas fighting forces to have
sufficient stamina to give the Hun the
equal Of what he offers
If you are in the manufacturing
business. there is scarcely a. line in
which Uncle Sam is not buying some
thing with which to equip the big
army already provided for financially
by congress- The governments shon-
ping tour takes Uncle Sam purchasers
into every mercantile line The figures
Of his purchases seem almost in
credible, but they serve to give some
idea of the cost, not of war, but of
maintaining the army and navy.
Some of the principal items taken
from the books Of the war department
seem to run more to millions than any
lesser hgure The same Is true in re-
spect to the navy.
