WILSON HAS CALLED NEW
 CONFERENCE
(Contfnued From Page One.)

(Contfnued From Page One.) pleasure of naming you as one of its members
 Guided by the experience of the last conference, have thought 1t ad- visable that in this new body there should be no recognition of distinct i've groups, but that all of the new representatives should have concern that our industries may be conducted with such regard for justice and fair dealing that the workman will feel himself induced to put forth his best efforts, that the employer will have an encouraging profit and that the public will not suffer at the hands of each class. It is my hope that this conference may lay the foundation for the development for the standards and machinery within our industries, by which tn 5se results may be attain ed.
 "It is not expected that you will deal directly with any condition which exsts today, but that you may be fortunate enough to find such ways as will avoid the repetition of these dep!orable conditions.
 ''The conference will meet at a place to be hereafter designated in this city on the first of December neXt.'

PUBLIC UTILITIES IN CONNECTICUT
 IN GOOD SHAPE
Statement By Higgins Be fore State Commerce
 Chamber.

New Haven, Nov. 20.---Manufactur- CTS of Connecticut have nothing to fear from competitors in other 1ocali-
 ies in the opinion cf Professor W. F. Robb, of Rensselaer, Polytechnic In- St @ te, who addressed the Connecti- cut Chamber of Commerce today. He based his opinion from the viewpoint of power ample in quantity, highly reliable ard produced at minimum cost. He said, however, that il was essential that power producers and N0>- CT consumers keep up with the rapid advancement that is being made almost daily in power production, rcansnl .ss-on. distributi- and utiliza- ton, and to take full advantage of the states location on the Sound and a great naviqa17'e river.
 Richard T. Higgins. chairman of the Public Utilities Commission, speaking
 at a group meeting, said that public
 utiIi ies n Connecticut, except trans portation companies, are in good con
 dition and making honest efforts to
 serve the public. He discussed the
 condition of transporta ton compan-
 ies, giving statistics as well. He
 said that federal trustees of the Con
 necticut Co. receive more than twice
 as much compensation for supervising : that corporation than does the Utili- ties Commission for supervis ng III service corporations in the state. He said that when railroads are return ed to private ownership a system should be made which would elinin- ate conflict of supervisory authority between tue federal and state com l missions.
 He said it was futile to dislntegrate trolley lines and place parts of them under municipal control They can- i not now be divided without injury i to the whole. No attempt to supply l service in cities by other means than trolleys was absurd, in his opinion, because it would mean greater con- gestion of traffic, more inconvenience | and more grumblng As to labor, MT. Higgins believed it should not be lawful for railroad or railway em- 1 ployeS to interrupt service because 1 they are, from officers down, public l servants. Of the factors of capital | labor and the public, MT. Higgins said that capital alone is receiving nc | return.
 If dispute arises a legal tribunal
 should have opportunity to investi- gate and adjust the grievances. A 1 penal sentence, he believed should be possible to punish any one would ! jeopardize the rights of the public to
 transp portation.
 Of the taxing system in Connecti-
 cut, MT. Higgins said it was unjust ] and continued it would tax public l service corporations into the hands
 of receivers. Supervis on of rates by
 the government, if just. makes it also
 just that the governing powers should
 set the wage rate. MT. Highs criti-
 cized public service corporations in
 not attending to m nor complaints ! The public be damned" policy of the
 past still fingers in the minds of the
 public and, MT. Higgins declared
 must be eradicated by honest effort
 now if companies are to survive.

SENATE'S ACTION TO HURRY PARIS
 NEGOTIATIONS
(Continued From Page one.)

(Continued From Page One.)
 At present the war arrangement by which Spain is taking care Of Amerf- can interests in Germany continues in force, and that is not expected to be disturbed. The rationing of supplies of various sorts to Germany must be- gin under the treaty terms, however, and the powerful separations com mission will be set up to determine all the details of Germany's com mercial intercourse with other na- tions.
 On this. commission the United States will have no representation. though it :s hoped to work out a plan by which this country can keep in close touch with the body's work in order to protect American interests The administration officials were not prepared today to predict just what form this unofficial connection would take nor to outline just what could be accomplished by such a connection.
 The state department is emphatic in its stand that no American consuls can be sent into Germany until peace has been definitely established be- tween the United States and that country, and they declare only an imperfect trade relation can be built up without the consular offisers who are in charge of the legal end of in ternational trade.
 A con .rary view is held, however, by some of the senators who oppose ratification of the treaty. Notable in that connection is the stand taken by Senator Knox, Republican, Pennsyl- vania, a former Secretary of State, who holds that by the treaty full commercial and diplomatic inter course can be resumed with Germany by all of her late enemies as soon as the proces verbale is exchanged

BORE DISTRICTS PLACED ON VAR
 TIRE RATI0NS
Further Annulment of Trains Being Considered
 By Directors.

Chicago, Nov 20-Reg:onal direc- tors of railroads today had a free hand in dealing with curtailment of non-essential industrial and unneces- sary passenger traffic and extraordin- ary efforts to conserve and distribute the nations steadily dimin; shing coal supply were being made. Under that authority, granted by Walker D. Hines, Federal Director General of Railroads, after a two day conference with the seven regional directors. the entire south, east of the Mississippi. and south of the Ohio rivers, except for a small area in the Pocahontas region, today had been placed on war time ration basis and annul1ment of trains in addition to the 146 a1- ready taken off was under considera- ton.
 Other drastic action looking toward reserving the available supply for es- sent!a1 industries, public utilities and domestic consumers included stopping deliveries to all essential indus tries in Cleveland and deliveries in Omaha, Neb., only on written appli- cation approved by the local coal committee.
 Except in West Virginia fields, upon which it was announced the rest or the country WOuId draw Tor absolutely necessary requirements, there was little hope today for in creased production. The majority of the 425.000 bituminous. miners who went on strike nearly three weeks ago maintained their disposition to disregard the strike recall order issued by their acting president under direc- ton of the federal court and to await developments from the miners pera- tors conference at Washington.
 'rThe Uni ed States court at Fargo, North. Dakota, had issued a decree that apparently would lead to restor- alton of the mines to their private owners. No state court has yet acted to change the situation brought about by the governors ac'ion in seizing the hgnite mines and ordering them op- erated by the state. Application for an injunction in the state courts to restrain the governor is scheduled to be heard at Bismarck N. D., today. The federal court order to show cause is returnable November 24.''
 The. first troop movement into a coal field since the first days of the strike was reported from Wyoming. Thirty soldiers were sent to Wtnton, Wyo., where a small group of alleged alien miners armed with rifles stopped American and naturalized workers from returning to the pits
