than the same number travelling in both ways and our park and streets are so laid out that it would be far easier to route them in one way.
 We shall take. for instance, a ma chine coming from Chestnut street and bound for a store along the west side of the park. At present the driver would probab choose the di- rect route, come out of Chestnut street into traffic on Main and cross providing the trolleys did not block the way. In doing this he would probably have to cross the Isle of Safety near the park. He would side of the street and would have to cross the street himself to get to the store. At two points he has created disorder. south of the park and when he crosses the street as a pedestrian. Should there be one-way traffic he would be compelled to travel along the east side of the park, along one-way street, then swing and travel west along the north of the park and swing again coming south to his des- tina tion. There would be no disor- der. He makes his first swing wester- ly at a svide point in the street where he would leave one stream of traffic and pick up another. Likewise his swing southerly. He could pass on either side of a trolley should he meet any and leave his machine at the curb headed in the proper direc- ton and in such position that he has but to step from it to the sidewalk.

JITNEYS.
"Youn see lots of jitneys here next

"You'n see lots of jitneys here next week"
 This IS the remark of the few jitney drivers of New Britain. They discuss the free rides which have been given in other places and the restrictions being imposed elsewhere. In Hartford the drivers do not like being kept from the center of the city. of course. and it is thought they will look to other fields.
 New Britain makes good use of the few jitneys it has had. The Arch street line of two busses and the West Main street line have been well patronized. They have blocked the traffic comparatively little.
 But new faces are beginning to ap- pear behind the steering wheels of strange jitneys. The new vehicles are lining the curbs. They pull up at stands formerly occupied by our own iitneys which are operated by men we know.
 Frankly we do not care much to see these new faces. Frankly the in- Aux bothers us. The big vehicles block the traffic more and more. We wish they would keep away. The jitney matter has not troubled New Britain as yet. But if New Britain is to be the mecca of all jitney drivers because other places have restricted them and practically driven them out | we will like it still less. We hope sincerely that the remark | of the jitney drivers. "You'n see lots of jitneys here next week." is wrong. We Nope it for our own sakes and l for the sake of the jitneys which we
 have found convenient. We hope ii because complications may come.

here we arc interested in questions about the League. We are interested in Frances position as to whether or not Germany shall join 1t now.
 Yesterday came the news that France sas opposed to Germany's en- trance into the League. There is nothing new in this stand of France.
 When the idea of the League was conceived 1t was the plan that all the civilized nations of the world would be admitted-in time. When that time should come depended upon the ac- tions of certain nations.
 Germany was mentioned prom inently. Whether or not they should be allowed to join the League was discussed. All agreed that should she show a determination to "behave' and to recognize her position the time would come when she would be ad- nitted.
 Certainly that time has not como mission. Today we learn that Ger many will demand revision of the treaty of Versailles. This action would put the time of her admission 10 the League still farther off.
 No one can help sympath.zing with France in her refusal to allow Ger many to enter the league now, no matter what England wants. Germany has not kept to the provisions of the treaty. She has shown little disposi- tion to do so. rntil she does, cer- tn inly she will not be eligible, ac- cordinE to the plan for the League first agreed upon.
 The argument will be raised: Now look-isn't 1t lucky that the United States Is not in the League now when 1t would he bothered by this question of admitting Germany?'
 Such argument is vain. The United States would better he in from tho start than come in after something wrong has been done The advice Of the United States would carry tre- mendous weight in this as in every other important matter. If we are to be associated with other nations of the world. as we will be eventually, we had best be in on the ground floor.

WIDENING STREETS FOR
 TRAFFIC.

TtklAEEIa.
 New Britain contains some six thousand houses for it's population of nearly sixty thaisand. 1t also has in the neighborhood of three thousand five hundred automobiles of every de- gree of quality and size. It is small wonder that the citizen who walks or rides has begun to wonder what he is going to do with the main streets of the city in order that there may be room for those who wish to tra- verse the center. afoot or awhsel. As the number of machines is added the conditions become worse aad they are at a point now where they are approaching upon the unbearable. Consequently we have the project of widening West Main street to the north of the park by removing some of the sidewalk. and also the widen ing of the west side of Main street by taking n twelve foot strip from the park.
 Both of these actions might result in a temporary alleviation of the diff faculties which we confront Every inch gained will he Of direct benefit to those using the street. But in short time we shall be in difficulties again, owing to the growing number of machines. and will be forced to try and find another way out The proposal to cut down our park is unfortunate in n way. as it would 1 take from the center a certain amount of the greenery. which can never be replaced once it is gone and which undoubtedly adds to the attractive ness of the street
 Again, as a remedy. the one-way traffic proposition arises. It has come up many times. through the columns of this paper and in the Common | Council. r.. c. Babcock, once chair
 man of the Public Works board was
 in favor of the scheme. The propo- sition to make both sides of Main street one-way streets should be care fully considered at this time.
 ! The first rule of a business estab-
 nshment is system, the prime requi-
 site of a military organization. where | n large number of men is handled
 without confusion, is order. Traffic | conditions at the present time. in the
 center of the city make for disorder.
 With two-way traffic on both sides of
 the park. the troileys parking at the south of the triangle and traffic feed
 ing in from several streets at ram
 dom, there can be nothing but con-
 fusion where there are a large num-
 Der of vehicles. And all of the
 space, in width. that we can give will
 not alter this fact.
 Irrespective Of whether we widen
 the streets or not, the traffic problem should be taken up with the idea of getting. the maximum of order out of the streets that we have. Trollcys
 should park on the sides os the green not at the end. South bound trathC
 should travel along the vest side Of
 the park, using either side of the
 road and north-boung along the east , i side. using the street in front of City s Hall to accommodate the machines going west or south and the "dead
