TO PUBLIC UTILITIES COM.

! The zone system is not meeting with the favor of the Berlin and kenslrg- ton residents despite the fact that 1t has been in operation for a month short timeNago petition was circu- lated with view 'to secure reduc- tion in the fare between Berlin and New Britain and kensineton and that city. The Connecticut company has paid no attention to the wishes Of ihe community for betterment of the service or rates and Selectman Roger NJ. Grswold has now taken the mat ter up with the Public Utilities Com mission to have the present situation modified to the satisfaction of all the residents.
 The letter as sent to the chairman Of the Public Utilities Commission NfoIows:
 Chairman Public Utilities Commis-
 sion,
 Hartford, Conn.
 Dear Sir:
 am asked by the citizens of this town to call your attention to the ap- parent injustice of the present rate of fare between New. Britain and K <ensington-B Berlin. ' The people here do not object to a reasonable increase, which we believe is warranted, but we do not believe an increase of practically 50 per cent in Kensington fares and l2o per cent in Berlin IS a just or reasonable in- crease.
 From such information as we are x able to obtain this large increase in latc has resulted in decrease in the income of the company, and from present indications this decrease will continue.
 We are asking Nour commission to give this matter your consideration and assure you we are ready to CO., operate in any way which will able the railroad to solve it's difficulties. and still be just and fair to our To- cal people.
 Very truly yours.

months premiums on the amount of in surance to be reinstated, one covering the month of grace during which the policy was in force, and one for the month in which reinstatement is made This is q very generous provision, and will make it possible for all ex-service men to retain their government insur- ance after they have become adjusted again in their normal civil life. Indeed look for a very heavy reinstatement and conversion as soon as the Sweet bill passes the senate and becomes an act and it is made known to all those who are affected.
 "The bureau appreciates tremendous ly the cooperation it has had from the insurance officials and the men of the insurance profession, and it is to be regretted that there are some few to assist the ex-seryice men by encour- aging the men to drop their govern ment insurance and take out insurance in private companies. It is my per sonal opinion that all ex-service men in such instances should combine in their disapproval of such action, and should in some forceful way express their utter disgust for those who are found guilty of such practices. Indeed, in the years to come. l feel confident that in such cases where ex-service men have been advised in such way as to allow them to lose their government insurance, that there will be at least one man in the world whom the ex- service men will utterly despise, and distrust, and that will be the un- scrupulous agent who in time of test was found wanting"

BRITISH BIRTH RATE GROWS
More Boys Are Born in Times of Hard ships, Official Figures
 Show.

London.-More babies were born In England during August than in any previous month since the beginning of the war. Official returns show the number to be 6,390 equivalent to an annual rate of Is per 1000, and A61 more babies than in the same month of 1918.
 q believe that during and after wars more boy babies are born than girls" " said pr. Mary Seharlieb, a specialist, discussing the report. T think official figures will prove that more boys are born during periods of stress. hard ship and food shortages and more girls during periods of wealth, ease and luxury"
 "A baby these days is a very ex- pensive addition to the average Brit tsh family" said another doctor. "The cost of everything, from blankets to perambulators has practically doubled Milk is a shilling a quart and nurses three guineas week The infants extensive wardrobe is also a costly af- fair these days. while his cot costs twice as much as before the war.

Important Amendments in Bill Are Asked of National
 Lawmakers.
REVISE SCHEDULE UPWARD
Increased Compensation for Disabled Ex-Service Men Is UrQed-Bureau Seeks to Give Fullest Possible
 Service to Those Affected.

Washington.-"Our work in conduct ing the affairs of the bureau must be guided by the counsel of the soldiers, sailors and marines themselves. Our aim is to be of the fullest possible serv- ice to those affected by the act"
 Thus Colonel R. G. Cholmeley-Jones, director of the bureau of war risk in- surance, in the course of a talk to wounded soldiers at Walter Reed hos pltal, Washington, D. C., epitomized the motives behind the action of the bureau in requesting congress, through the treasury department, to enact sev- eral important amendments to the war risk insurance act These may be di- Vlded into two general classes-those affecting the compensation features of the act, and those concerning war risk insurance.
 A very important proposed amend ment, and one which meets with wide spread approval, is the upward revi- sion of the schedule of compensation payable to disabled ex-seryice men. Under the present schedule a man to- tally disabled is entitled to $50 a month, if single. The amendment raises this by $50, making $50 pay able under these circumstances. If he has wife but no child living he gets $45; the amendment provides S90. If he has wife and one child, he draws at present, $55; the amendment gives him $95.
 Extend the Provisions.
 The law now provides that if man loses both hands, both feet, or the sight Of both eyes, or becomes helpless and permanently bedrldden, he shall receive $100 a month compensation. Experience has shown that many men who have lost an arm and a leg, or one limb and the sight of one eye, are just as badly crippled as men who have lost both feet or both hands, and so the bureau has recommended that in addition to the injuries at present en- titling man to compensation at the rate of $100 a month, the following shall be included: The loss of one foot and one hand; the loss of one foot and the sight of one eye. These are deem- ed total and permanent disability" by the express wording of the amend ment. There is also a provision that for q double total permanent disabil- lty" meaning cases in which men are maimed so seriously that their injuries include two of these classifications, the compensation shall be $2OO a month.
 The bureau has found a very wide spread sentiment among ex-service men in favor of having their policies made payable in lump sum, or in in- stallments covering a short period of time, at their option. To meet this demand Director Cholmeley-Jones has urgently recommended a modification of the war risk insurance act to permit making provision in the contract for converted insurance for optional set dement's on the part of the insured, making such insurance payable either in one sum or in installments for thir- ty-six months or more.
 If the insured has not exercised his right of election, under the proposed amendment the beneficiary may elect to receive the insurance in monthly

Col.

The record made by Colonel Jadwin in getting his men speedily ready for service and the eff ciency of his work has already been the subject of widespread comment in army circles. It develops now that the reason for his success was primarily due to the fact that he ignored red tape lncumbrances which are required legally by the present system. It will be for Secretary Baker to decide whether Coi. Jadwin is to escape the remonstrance that attaches to his course or whether he will be com mended for his initiative and his sue cess.
