Street north; 125th Street, crosstown;
Fifty-ninth Street, crosstown; Grand

cars.
At the Offices of the Brooklyn City
Railroad Company it, was said that
the Sixteenth Avenue line, the Holy
Cross shuttle, the Flatbush Ave
nue. shuttle and the Grand Street shut
tie were the only lines still tied up.
The condition of the streets, General
Manager H. Hobart Porter said, was
could not be utilized and that thaw
must set in before traffic can be re-
sumed on these lines.
Brooklyn Leads Boroughs
1t was generally admitted, however,
that even where overhead trolleys were
used in other boroughs the Brooklyn
lines were in far better condition than
the others. This was said to have been
due to the fact that snow plows were
set in operation at the beginning Of the
storm and continued as long as snow
fell.
In most of Brooklyns streets the jt-
ney vehicles that were expected to take
the place of the Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit cars are using the space cleared
by the streetcar company's sweepers in
order to operate, while the streets that
remain TO be cleared by the city's
cleaners are not passable to transpor-
tation Of any kind.
Mayor Hylan issued an urgent ap
peal to department heads during the
day, in which he asked that they call
upon their employees to volunteers to
serve as snow fighters. 1t is expected
that the number of shovelers will be
increased by several hundred from that
source to-day. This increase probably
will not serve to equal the number who
will be claimed by other industries,
however.
One of the most serious complaints
on the part of coal dealers was made
by the operators of mines having head
quarters in New York. One mine owner
declared that the Pennsylvania Rail
road had averaged only 80 per cent of
its normal number Of cars for fuel
hauling during one week. Because of
this condition many mines already have
been forced to cease operation more
than one day a week. Others are keep
ing their men at the work of loading
only one hour a day. A statement
from one coal mine having veins of
coal on two railroads said:
ain the working week February 2
to 7 inclusive the average distribu-
tion of cars on the Pennsylvania Rail
road has been 32 per cent. In other
words, assuming that mine has nor
NAL rating of IS cars daily, they have
been receiving five on the Pennsylvania
Railroad or a total for the week of
twenty-five cars placed instead of sew
enty-fve.
"On the New York Central Railroad
conditions have been even worse, az the
mines served by this road alone have
only worked one day in the same week.
Yesterday the car supply was 40 per
cent on the Pennsylvania Railroad
Owing to weather conditions, ac-
emulation Of freight and possibly to
condition of rolling stock, shippers
from the Pennsylvania Railroad are
embargoed from the mines to all points
and junction points east of Trenton"

From The Tribume's Washington bureau
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE ingen-
uity displayed by Second Lieutenant
Hillsley, Of the 3O1st United States
Heavy Tank Battalion attached to the
9th New York National Guard Divi-
sion at the time of its memorable
drive against the Hndenburg line, in
providing petrol to keep the tanks in
operation is described in the following
story authorized by the War Depart
ment to-day:
Excepting tanks in action supplied
with gas and oil was one of the hardest
problems that the tankers had. The
crews resorted to all kinds of strate
gems to obtain the precious petrol in
order that they might continue in the
fighting.
Ranged Countryside For Gas
"In one of the 9th Divisions actions
against the Hindenburg line, the 301st
American Heavy Tank Battalion was
cooperating with the Australian corps.
Second Lieutenant Hillsley in command
of one of the tanks found that he was
short of gas with hours of fighting
still ahead of him. Securing the coun-
try, ready to commit any crime short
Of murder to secure some of the
precious liquid, he ran across the
limousine Of the Australian command
ing general. Only the chauffeur was
in the car, but naturally a generals
chauffeur would not listen to the plead
ings and arguments of second lieu
tenant.

"1ts definition is we'll known and
admitted. 1t is the municipalizatior Of
tho source of production Of wealth; or,
in other words, it is system under
which the state is to own all the pro-
ductive businesses and manufactures

owned, as at present, by fortunate

Nov, In the first place, a moments
reflection will reveal at once this:
can be brought about by either vio-

affairs which means complete change
in the habits and thoughts of mankind
it can be achieved only by slow, grad

by evolution, not revolution.

on the face Of that proposition which
is contrary to Christianity or Cathol-

Socialism being fought upon wrong
lines, and, to my mind it is fighting il
on wrong lines to denounce it on the
ground of religion and morality.

"Now, as I have said, let us meet
Socialism and fight it with the proper
weapons. Let us point out the evils
Of Socialism, the impracticability of
Socialism,; that it must necessarily
destroy all incentive to effort and in

"These and kindred arguments, which
it is not our business to go into to-
night, arc those which are to be en-
ploycd to battle Socialism, but I pro-
test most strongly against the fulmina-
tion of religious thunderbolts, even
when they are delivered by our genial
friend, Father Bernard Vaughan, from
a selected platform in the Queens hall,
duke in the char, and Rothschild's s
band discoursing sweet music"
With the same object in view, cX-
cerpts were read from an article en-
titled "The Christian Socialists" deal
ing with the movement in the Epis-
copal Church which had it's early be-
oinnir~s under the leadership of the

until next Tuesday, counsel for the
Socialists still were reading from liter

GIVEN PRIVILEGE IN WAR
Channel Islanders for Centuries Were
Not Forced to Take Part in
Britain's Conflicts.

For over two centuries the Channel
islands were allowed to remain neu-
tral In any war that England might
undertake. This singular privilege was
granted to them by Edward ", and
was not revoked till the reign Of VIII
liam and Mary. 1t was granted as
reward for the loyalty of the island
ers, whose commerce with the neigh
boring coasts of Brittany and Nor
mandy was constantly being inter-
rupted by the numerous wars. Even
the pope joined in enforcing the right
and by a bull dated 1883 Scxtus "
threatened to eXcommunicate any one
who violated the order On the whole
1t was fairly rigidly observed, and when
a Guernsey vessel was taken in the
channel by a privateer of Morlaix. the
islanders with their boat were re-
leased. but few Englishmen on
board, with their merchandise, were
captured. The privilege does not
seem to have been Of any great COM
mercial value, for when It was with
drawn the islanders made more
money than before by fitting their yes

Parasite Spreads Disease.

A peculiar disease that is still con-
fined chiefly to certain river valleys of
Japan, but suggests possibilities Of
breaking loose as a widespread cpl
demic, has been a subject of recent in
vestigatiOn. It is known as "tsut-
sugamushi," and is transmitted by the
"akamushi," an insect parasite of GER
tain field mice. It is fever striking
~ similar to typhus and Rocky mount
ain spotted fevers. The investigators
have learned that it's chief occurrence
is in the months Of June to October,
which is the time of development of
the insect carriers, and the season
when the peasant victims Of the dis
ease are brought into contact with
the mice. The mortality, though very
variable, sometimes exceeds so per
cent. Under existing conditions, bites
by the insects cannot be wholly
avoided, and cutting out the bitten
part does not prevent the spread of
the virus, while such remedies as
iodine, mercury, arsenic, Quinine and
dyes have proven ineffective. The
only hope Of stamping out the disease
seems to rest in the determination Of
the field mice.

MAKE SKILLFUL AUTO DRIVERS
African Natives Conduct Vehicles
Along Jungle Tracks After Short
Term Of Apprenticeship.

It is natural that since automobiles
have found their way into every part
of the world, the drivers would vary
in appearance, and in attire or lack of
attire, according to the customs Of the
countries in which the motor car is
called to do service. If you were to
walk along the road leading from the
west coast Of equatorial Africa several
hundred miles into the interior, for
instance, you might see a motor truck,
blowing through the jungle, and in
the chauffeur's seat, driving with pc
culiar and cheerful abandon. would be
a west African native. And from the
appearance of his drivers uniform, it
would be evident that the high cost
Of clothing would bother him not one
whit. These natives become full
fledged chauffeurs within three or four
weeks from the time they see their
first motor vehicle. The trucks, of
which there are about 200, maintain
regular schedules as feeders to a large
steamship line plying between west
African ports and Europe and Amer
lea. They are loaded with men and
supplies on the inland trips, and with
cocoa products, palm oil, hides, and
rubber bound for the coast.

Since the new time card went into
effect short time ago there has been
much complaint about the way mail
has been delivered to the postoftice
from No. 3. This train comes in at
1855 in the evening and many times
the mail it not delivered for at least
an hour afterwards to the postoffice,
which is no fault of the postoffice off,
Gals but the railroad company. There
are three trains coming in here in the
evening within thirty minutes of each
other and the baggage man at the de-
pot has to look after those trains so
that he cannot deliver the mail until
after these trains are gone. 1t is no
fault of his, but that does not interest
the public. They want their mail and
they want it within reasonable time.
