Says Budget Would
Save Two Billions

Wellesley Hills, Mass, Dec. &C.
rhe use of a budget system in regu-
ating the expenditures of the United
States Government would save the
people $4,000. 900 in 1920. ac-

ical expert. He bases that figure
IN the Secretary of the Treasury's
istimate of an expenditure of $6,-

BAN ON SUGAR IS
 ON IN NEW YORK
Sales Limited to One Pound Per Per Son-ShortaGe Most Serious
 Since 1917.

New York, Oct. 17.-Arthur Will Hams, federal food administrator for New York, today was perfecting plans to place the city on a sugar rationing basis similar to that in force during the war.
 Increased use of sugar resulting from the enforcement of prohibition and the shortage in receipts of raw sugar resulting from the strike of longshoremen which virtually para lyzed shipping, were blamed by MT. Williams for what he termed the most serious sugar shortage since 1917.
 Sales of sugar will be limited to one pound per customer and many res taurants already have put into effect the sugar envelopes employed during the war. Four retiners already have been compelled to close because of in- ability to get raw sugar, MT. Williams has been informed, and others will be obliged to close unless the shipping situation is restored to normal. AL though the lOngShOremen'S strike has Eeen called off by a majority of the To- cal unions, the return of workmen to the piers is reported to be slow. Sev- craI cases of disorder have been re- ported in Brooklyn, where alleged I. w. w. agents attempted to prevent strikers from returning to work.

NEITHER PLAINVILLE
 NOR BERLIN RATES SET
But Zone System Boosts Hartford Trolley Fare
 to "A Cents.

Publicity Manager Peplan, con- hccted with the New Haven office of the Connecticut company, was un- able to say, when asked today, what the erect of the adoption of a new zone sys(em would be on the Berlin and Plainvillc lines, the two runs used most by New Britainites, but announced that on the Hartford run the fare would be twice it's present rate, or A cents.
 The new rates are computed through a system of zone slips is sued by the mOtOrman to the passen- gers as they enter the car and col lected by the conductor when they leave. The patrons of the line are required to enter by the front door and it will be the duty of the motor man to hand over a slip with the zone in which the passenger enters, checked off. When the passenger reaches his destination he will leave by the rear door where the conductor will be stationed at all times. He will hand his zone slip" to the conductor who will compute the cost by means of a chart and collect the fare.
 This will do away with the two col lcctions on the Hartford run but will double the price of transportation. By chart in the front of the car proper the passenger will know what his trip is to cost him. The cOnduc- tor will change the zone number on the chart as a new zone IS entered, and this chart will give the charge from the zone in which the car is running to any point in any other zone.
 While the rates in some instances will remain the same, it will mean an increase in most instances of nearly double the present cost, it is said.

It is said to be the best and largest :nachine of it kind that tho Germans ever built, and was de- signed and constructed with the idea of sending it over the Atlantic to drop on New York d load of more than three tons of high explosives
 In company with Col. Kingsley I recently had a ride in a smaller pas senger Zeppelin, the one which I was told was soon to begin a passenger service between Germany and Sweden American line. We had a glimpse of the big Zeppelin but were not per mitted to examine it closely.
 "It was my understanding that should the Allied commission decline to let it be used by the Americans for the purpose of crossing the Atlantic it would be destroyed or disabled so that it could not be used at all"

Declares That Yankee Soldiers Are Going Across to See That PIcbiSritc to Determine If Country Is to Be- come Part of Poland Is Conducted AIon2 Fair and square Lines.

Washington, oct. 17.-Dispatch of additional American troops to Europe fer the ultimate purpose of policing Silcsia during the plebiscite as pro rosed by the peace treaty formed the text of another chapter of senate de- bate today on the treaty.
 BranlcGCc Takes Issue.
 The authority of the war depart ment to take such d step was QueS- toned by Senator Brandec, rcpubi- can, Connecticut, and the scarcity of information available to the senate on such subjects was deplored by Chairman WadSWorth of the military committee. The departments action was defended by senator Nelson, re publican, Minnesota and others.
 "NObOdy knows under what au- thority these troops are being sent, said senator Brandcgce. Tt may be that the war department has some idea that the status of war technically still exists although it does not"
 Headed for COblcnZ.
 Senator Wordsworth said he had been informed by the assistant sec retary of the war department and the chief of staff that the troops referred to had left New York a few days ago their immediate destination being Coblenz where they were to await or ders to go to Silesia.
 "I was given to undcrStand,' said the New York senator that the dis patch of this force was due to some arrangement made by the American peace commission at Paris. It was intlmated also that the author ftyraf fo%s sending them springs from the fact that technically we are still at war with Germany"
 Nelson Defends Dept.
 Senator Nelson interrupted to Sug eeSt that the plebisCitc was to de- termine whether upper Silesia should become a part of Poland and added:
 "Thcy simply want our troops there to sec that there is a fair pebiscite, that's all.'
 Senator Mccormick, republican, Illinois. d2clared he had heard 1t was the purpose to send a brigade of American troops to Lithuania and Senator BrandCgce said he would like to have moro information on pub lished reports that President Wilson was anxious to have the United States assume d mandatory over Armenia.
