 In effectiveness and simplicity the new measure excells any in existence is the verdict of those who have fam iliarized themselves with it's provis- ions. It is said to contain all that is best in both the. compensation measures of the states of New York and Washington, but is devoid of con fusing sentences which may be found in both, for it is model of simpli. city, and it's liberal remuneratons to injured men makes its initiation cep tain. 1t is to replace the present made of the state that it is so framed as to miss the breakers of the objections of the courts on constitutional grounds. is to replace the present made. quate compensation law.
 It provides insurance to the em- ployer and guarantee of fair compen. sation to the injured workman. It provides state insurance to the employee at no cost to himself and at only actual cost to his employer. 1 The injured person entitled to com pensation will receive it direct from
 the Industrial Accident Board of the
 state, promptly and without the as-
 sistance of lawyers.

LONERGAN MOVES lip
ON FINANCE BOARD
Becomes Fifth Democratic Men,
Der Instead Of Ninth
Especial to The HeraId.)

Washington, Dec. 7.-One of the
first to congratulate the new secre-
tary of the treasury, the Hon. Carter
Glass of Virginia, today, was Con-
gresham Lonergan, who has been as
ISOLATED very closely with Mr.. Glass
on the banking and currency commit
tee of which Mr.. Lonergan is a
member and Mr. Glass chairman. The
committee has framed important
legislation during the past two years
which aided the banking interests to
weather the financial changes which
were the outcome of the war.
Mr.. Glass, in their talk today,
urged Mr.. Lonergan to consider seri-
ously remaining on the banking and
currency committee instead of MAX
ing any changes in the new congress,
to come next March; as the Connecti-
cut cngressnnan's experience would
be an asset to the party on the COM
n1fttee.
1t is interesting to note that Mr..
Loaergan now becomes the fifth
democratic member of the committee,
where previously he had been ninth.
Mr.. Glass will, of course, resign as
chairman, thus placing a New Eng
land democrat, Michael Phelan of
Lynn, Mass, as chairman. Congress-
maa Jouett Shouse Of Kansas and
Congressman Charles o. Lobeck Of
Nebraska were defeated, and conse-
uuently Mr.. L4onergan moves up that
much on the committee.
On the republican side of the
committee that party has lost it's
ranking member, Everis A. Hayes of
California; and also its next ranking
member Frank P. Woods of Iowa,
who lost out In the primaries despite
the fact that he was then chairman
of the republican national congress
sional committee. This leaves as
ranking. republican member. il line

tee, the Hon. Edmund Plat of
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, newspaper
man who is widely known to Goa
uecticut and particularly in Hartford.

80 DAYS IN JAIL
Friends Promise Judge They Will

John H. Kirkham for beating his
wife, Anne Melewski. Mrs. Melewski
is just recovering from pneumonia
and left her bed this week. Dominic

has been giving his wife such poor
support that friends asked the judge
to send him to Jail on their promise
to support the wife and three chill
dren. The oldest of the children is
10 years Of age. Melewski was ar
rested last night by Officer Malona on
complaint that a man was beating his
wife with a poker.
MeleWski went to his home last
night, very drunk, and calling his
wife told her he was going to kill
her. He was about to strike her with
a poker when neighbors interviewed
and he left the house. A little later
he returned and repeated his actions
Of earlier in the evening. The officer
was then called and MeleWski
arrested. Melewski was before the
court less than three weeks ago on
the same charge and a Sixty day in
Jail sentence was suspended at that
time.

GERMANS BUILDING
OVERSEAS AIRPLANE
Transatlantic Zeppelin for 100
Passengers Also Under Way

London, Dec. THE Germans are
building an airplane with which they
intend trying g. trip across the Allan
tic, and have a Zeppelin under con-
structlon with the same idea in view,
Berlin of the Daily Express.
The airplane being constructed at
Stalker has a wing spread of 1913 feet
and engines OF 5000 horsepower, the
correspondent says.
Almost Immediately after the armi~
stice was signed the Staaken plant be-
gan converting fighting planes on
hand into numerical machines in
tended to link all the European capt.
tails with Berlin, and dozens of planes
built entirely of aluminium are being
transformed for postal service.
"A transatlantic Zeppelin, capable
of carrying 100 passengers and hav-
ing nine engines and eight propeIIers,
is being constructed at F'riedrichshaf-
en-, the correspondent says. It's first
flight will be in July next, if the in
sernational situation clears up by that
time. The trip is expected to be made
in 40 hours.
The correspondent was told of the
remarkable flight of a Zeppelin in No
vember 1917. The airship started
from Bulgaria for East Africa with
~ tons of munitions and medicines
and a crew of %. It had arrived over
Khartoum in the Sudan, the CORES
pondents informant declared, when 1t
was ordered by wireless to return be-
cause it was learned that the bulk of
the forces OF Gen. Won Lettow-Vor-
DECK, the German commander in East
Africa, had surrendered. 1t returned
to it's starting point four days after
1t had left.
Managing Director Raasch, of the
aircraft factory at Staaken, claimed
TINS airship could have gone from
Berlin to New York and back with
out stopping.

PROSECUTE KAISER,
ENGLAND insists
Lloyd George Reiterates That
Wilhelm Must Pay Penalty

London. Dec. Tin a. detailed re-
statement Of his policy. Premier
Lloyd George says
THE Kaiser must be prosecuted
The war was a crime. Who doubts
that? 1t was a crime in the way In
which it was planned and IN the deli
berate wantonness with which it was
provoked. 1t also was crime in the
invasion of helpless little state and
in the wicked and most brutal treat
ment of that little state. Remember
the treaty of neutrality, the scrap of
paper.
THE fact that all these ubiquitous
things were done in the name of war
and under the imperial edict of an
autocrat does not change their
nature.
Us no one responsible? Is no one
to be called to account? Is there to
be no punishment? Surely, that is
neither Gods justice nor mans. The
men responsible for this outrage on
the human race must not be let off
because their heads were crowned
when they perpetrated the deed.
The British government referred
the question of the criminal culpa-
bility of the Kaiser and his accom-
plices to their law offices some weeks
ago. They invited a body of jurists
in England to investigate the matter
and they have unanimously come to
the conclusion that the Kaiser and
his accomplices in the making of this
war ought to be tried by an inter
national court. They also reported
strongly in favor Of the. punishment
of those guilty of. murder on the high
seas and the abominable ill-treatment
OF prisoners. - f.. ..

its whole influence at the peace con-
ference to Sec that justice is executed

1ast fourier five years it is impossible

which has spied and plotted and
assisted Germany in forming plans
for the destruction of a country which

Germans who have been fighting US
for four years came here to take the
bread out of the mouths of the men
whom they for four years sought to

war up to the limit of their capacity.
The Allies propose to appoint Il COM

Dealing with measures for an in
crease of British output Mr.. Lloyd
George says:
There is one condition for the sue

production. Russia proves that.
Russia will not begin the building no
of productive system until Boil
