Once war is declared it is different

UTILITIES BOARD
HINTS AT BOOST
IN TROLLEY FARE
But Connecticut Co. First
Must Show Improvement
in Service. y

Hartford, March 31.-At the contin-
ued hearing conducted yesterday af-
ternoon by the public utilities COM
mission to allow the trustees of the
Connecticut company to present infor-
nation as to it's service and equipment
and to tell what the prospects are for
improveld conditions on its lines, the
commission showed disposition to
meet the trustees half way, if better
trolley service Is forthcoming, by sug-
costing that the trustees undertake to
get the Legislature to repeal the law
that now compels the street railways
to pave and keep in repair a large part
of the streets on which their cars are
operated and intimating that such a
move would receive the support Of the
the commission
What apparently cheered the trls-
tees even more, il possible, was a
statement na!de by Chairman Richard
T. Higgins at the end OF the hearing,
when he said that when the company
has improved its service it will then
eb considered proper move, if the
trustees ask for higher rate for
transportation.
Judge Walter c. Noyes, chairman Of
the Connecticut company trustees told
what the trustees were doing to i'm
prove the service.
Judge Noyes said, in part:
THE trustees have reduced the
amount of annual dividend upon the
capital stock from IL to 1 1-2 per
cent, so as to enable the company to
utilize the larger part of the income
for the financing of the company's
needs.
when the trustees took charge, the
equipment was adequate; when the
prosperity wave struck this country
and congestion became apparent, cars
were ordered-92 at one time and later
on 100 more. These orders have not
yet been filled and probably will not
be before next fall
The company has also expert enced
difficulty in getting enough men to
man its cars, as the boom prices of
munition plants have lured them away
from trolley work. Increases in pay
have been made, but this docs not hold
the men, and we have experienced
times when there were cars in the
barns at rush hours lying useless be-
cause we had no crews to man them.
Barns are needed badly in which to
house the new rolling stock Plans for
many barns are now being made; re-
pair facilities are also needed badly
and will be provided later on

SOCIALIST SAYS
SUBMARINES Will
NOT Win THE WAR
DR.. Suedekurn in Reichstag
Says U. S. Was Active in
War From Start.

Stockholm, via London, March 31.-
DR.. Albert 0. w. Suedekum,- one of the
best-known leaders of the majority So
cialists in the Reichstag, in an inter-
view here with the correspondent of
the Associated Press said that who
ever thought the submarine war was
going to bring England to starvation
in six months was deceiving himself.
He added, however, that such result
was not necessary for German victory,
which he declared was certain, with
indemnity.
DR.. Suedekum said he was con-
WINGED that England hitherto had been
sending only enough troops to the
Continent to keep her allies contented,
but that now it was necessary for her
to change her course. He declined
to hazard prediction on the result
Of the possible participation of Amer
lea in the war on the side Of the En-
tente, but added:
Anyhow, America has been vir-
tually in the war practically since the
beginning. If it had not been for
American ammunition, the war would
have ended in 1915"
In reference to a statement attribu-
ted to ex-Ambassador Gerard that the
food situation might affect Germany
military strength, DR.. Suedekum said:
There is not the slightest danger Of
that, even in the improbable event Of
the war lasting year or two more.
If other foods fail, we can increase our
meat rations. We have 17,00O,000
swine to-day, and the normal number
before the war was only about 1880
900. We have about 100000 cattle,
against a peace normality of about
100000 or 100000 more. If neces-
imum number of brood animals.
1.-The extreme cold Of the last weeks
made it impossible to transport pota-
toes. and we had only one or two
pounds weekly for each consumer in
the big cities. If the people had been
required by regulation thus to limit
consumption, they would have consid-
cred it impossible. but when faced by
hard necessity they did it, with the re-
suit that we have an additional
months supply OF potatoes on which
we never reckoned. 1t is true we are
short Of food, but we are not starv-
ing
In regard to the split in the Social
list party, Dr.@Suedekum said: The
small minority which broke away from
the old party is merely sort of safe
gty valve for blowing of the pressure
Of discomfort. There is bound to be
a certain number Of idisgruntled indi-
viduals and malcontents in every party
even in normal times, and naturally
much more so in time Of war. These
people must have an outlet for their
discomfort, andHthe seeding Socialists
furnish this outlet. The secession
movement is Of no consequence, the
seceders themselves being split up In
to various groups. I predict these
divisions will disappear with the
coming of peace"
DIR. Suedekum is recognized as an
expert on municipal problems, and is
known in the United States, where he
delivered series Of lectures in 1910.
At the outbreak Of the war he went
to Italy to try and persuade the Ita1-
ian Socialists to support Italian inter-
vention on the side Of Germany. At
terwafd he was decorated with the
Iron Cross for his services at the front.
