 Civil Warfare Goes on.
 In the Ruhr region, adjoining the allied zone of occupation there is yer itable civil warfare, with opposing armies of communist and government troops drawing up their forces in line for battle. Government detachments have been defeated in some skir- miShes.

 Southern and eastern Germany are reported fairly quiet. There is a threat, however, of q renewal of the general strike in Bavaria because of dissatisfa ction over some of the terms of settlement.

NEW JOB FOR LEAGUE
Gasoline Prices Grossly Excessive and
 England Would Have Them Regu- lated by World Wide Body.

London, March 2.-ExistinS prices of gasoline are condemned as gross ly excessive in a report submitted by a committee appointed under the protiteering act to investigate prices. Ii says the concentra ton of control of the supply in hands of enorm ously powerful com pines constitutes such d dangerous power, if Improperly used, that il is imperative that governments should give attention to it. Recom- mendation is made that oil prices be regulated by the League Of Nations under international agreements.
 The Standard Oil company and the Shell corporation are named in the report the combines mainly con- cerned, and it is declared the existing price of g pounds sterling I. 0. b. j., much too high. It is said that the company had been infornned that the average price ought not to exceed : pounds los. per ton. '.t High prices are attributed to powerful financial interests taking advantage of ten- dency of demand to outstrip supply, and grave danger of a permanent world famine of motor spirits is fore seen. The report, for this reason, urges the British goH ernment to fos- ter the production of British motor fuel.

 New Haven First.

New York. March 2.-Plans for a great chain of retail hardware stores with the purpose of selling direct from factory to consumer were de- scribed here today by Louis K. Liz -ett. who has acquired the largest in dividuaI interest in the Winchester Arms Co. of New Haven, Conn.

 ngements have already been made for stores in New Haven, Conn, Syracuse, ". Y. and Manch ester, N. H. The Winchester Co. intends to open stores as fast as locations can be acquired and the stores stocked. MT. Liggett said. It will be the par ticuiar aim of the stores he declared. to reduce the cost to the consumer by modern merchandising and factory to consumer methods.

 Mr. Liggett said that reports that Nontcomery, Ward and Co.,. of Chi caso. were in crested in he WinChes te1. O.. were incorrect. The reorgan- ized Winchester Co.,, he said. had ali it's old stock h elders and no one owns a controlling interest.

-Ee Berlin, which for years has had a Borough charter, is to be followed by
 kenSington and East Berlin in this re- sspect, it was announced this morning
 The kensingto ndistrict has had the
 m alter under consid ration for a long

 town is bound to forge to the front,
 have taken it upon themselves to
 consider plans >to obtain q charter. n 3 king the district borough. and
 MI eventually formulate plans which can be presented to the board of se- lectm en so that Q special town meet ling can be called to pass upon the Eproject.
 Its Although Berlin has had charter for a number. of years, it has not [p1ade full use of it's opportunities in mazsy respects. Although it permits 1 of the levying of a special tax for civic improvements and their upkeep,
 no such tax is being levied as far can be ascertained. A borough char
 ter permits the district to have a wa Ter system and other public utilities, Ihe upkecp of which is m ain tained by
 the income derived from the special
 tax levied in addition to the one laid by the town. Where opposition
 might develop. owing to the paying of 1.-two separate taxes. it has been point led out that any chartered city pays a Eown and city tax. the aggregate of which usually totals from 20 to 30 Nn1jlls.
