Gaelic League.

About 200 members of the Patrick H. Pearse branch of the Gaelic league gathered last night at their rooms in Fairfield avenue, to com- memorate the fourth anniversary Of the uprising in which Pearse, first president of. the Irish republic and others were martyred. A very pleas ing program was offered including songs by Miss Farley, up De Va 1era'' and 'Innisfal1," songs in Irish by Richard Barry, who conducts the Irish language classes, and address by Jeremiah J. Sullivan.
 The principal address of the even- ing was by Sean Conway, who ro viewed the history of the TOO years of oppression of Ireland by the Eng fish, scored the English for the methods of oppression, scored their rule of sypt and India, and con- demned the present regime in Ireland. He prophesied that the tne is now near at hand when the English army of occupation must be withdrawn from the island.

COMMENTATORS.

Again, through stormy centuries,
 she swims up into the worlds eye, the
 pearl of the world, the prize of all history - Constantinop1e- What will be the result of England's coup in oc- cupying, for military reasons, the city of nstantine-France growing in the background. April 6, 1453, is one of the greatest dates in history. On this date, in 1453, Mohammed II. be- sieged ConstantinopIe, climbed over
 the fiery walls, entered Sancta Sophia built by Justinian the Great, and overthrow the Christian Empire of centuries. The Ottoman power, since
 that day, has sat mphant. gar landed with domes and minarets. on the Golden Horn. Sancta Sophia, the most stupendously grand of earth'S cathedra1s, became a mosque. Who dare prophecy the outcome of today s startling events, with Uncle Sam in- sisting that the Turk must move out from Europe, England deciding that the Sultan stay upon the Bosphorus. The pearl of the world is in the scales.

Charities Department Given Permission to Purchase
 Land.

If the New Haven road does as it has promised, sets the railroad sched- ules to conform with Daylight Sav- ing on April 25, Bridgeport will have Daylight Saving this summer, this being the decision of the Common Council at last nights meeting n the City Hall

McE1r oy reported that the proposition to re- duce all grades to a maximum of five per cent. within the section bounded by Main street, Fairfield avenue, Park avenue, Harra1 avenue and Madison avenue, would amount to considerable sewer and gas pipes, curbing and damages done property on these streets. No further action was taken,
 the report being accepted.
 The report of the finance commit tee was accepted without reading de- spite request by Alderman Hogan to have the report read.
 The Connecticut company was giv- en permission to withdraw it's petition for a crossing at East Main an6
 Maple street, and the Council accept | ed the invitation of the Charities de. partment to visit Hillside Home anG | the Margaret Ford cottage, Alderman R. Arthur Brown being appointed t! arrange for the date of the visit. The matter of purchasing addi l tional voting machines in case the
 women are granted voting power was

 A request that permanent pave

unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-

ROAD EXECUTIVES
AND EMPLOYEES FAIL
To AGREE ON RATES
IRepubIican A. p. Leased wireJ

WASHINGTON, March 22-Rail-
road executives and employees differed
widely before the interstate commerce
commission today as to the methods to
be employed in determining the
roads valuation on which an annual
net return of five and one-half per
cent is guaranteed for two years by
the transportation act.
Congress has made it imperative
that an immediate valuation be made.
A. p. Thom general counsel for the
association of railway executives, said.
Property investment accounts, and
material and supply accounts, he de-
clared to be the minimum conserva-
tive figures now susceptible to use.
Data being gathered by the commits
sion is incomplete, he said, and should
not be considered at present.
Estimating at twenty billion dol
lars the value of the properties. Mr..
Thorn declared over statements in the
railroads accounts filed with the COM
mission would be more than offset by
the rise in values in the last two
years.
Speaking for railroad employees,
Donald r. Rfchberg, representing
Glenn z. Plumb, author of the Plumb
plan for railroad ownership, expressed
surprise that the executives and Sc
curity owners should advocate a con
struction of the act mot as it is writ
ten but as it would have been but for
a misconceptions" He said the inter
est of the employees in the roads val
uation lay in assuring a return suf-
ficient to provide operating expenses
which could meet the reasonable wage
requirements of the workers. He de-
MED congress intended an immediate
valuation should be made and called
the property investment account evi-
dence of minor Importance.
Opposition to sub division of the
western classification groups of roads
to form a southwestern sub -diviion
for the purpose of the new rate ad-
justment was voiced by S. T. Bledsoe.
general counsel of the Santa F'e rail
road.
