 The city will be represented by Cor poration Counsel Edwin w. Higgins at the hearing on the injunction.
 New London Claims.
 The owners of public service motor vehicles in New London of a carrying capacity of less than seven persons have formed an association headed b, Villain Small of Waterford and they claim that the ordinance as adopted is dscrimina- tory as we'll as without legislative au- thority.
 Attorney Mcclure maintains that the police committee. which is enforcing the regulations regarding bus stations, has no authority 10 do this, that the right rests solely with the common council and cannot be delegated to committee.
 The complaint sets forth that "'bus stations designated by standard on d cement bqse have been placed on certain streets the length of such station not be- ing designated, and that all public Ser vice ears with a carrying capacity of seven or more persons are permitted to occupy these stations and those carrying less than seven are restricted from using said stations"
 Reference is made to an ordinance adopted by the court of common council of June 12. 1916, which creates that sec ton adjacent to the union station as a public parking place for public service vehicles. and virtually makes this the only place in the city where public ser vice vehicles may solicit passengerss
 The right of the city council to prohibit the smaller public service car operators from soliciting passengers on other streets or locations is questioned. as is the validity of the act of the police com mittee in designating the territory adja- cent to the station as the public parking place for these vehicles.

SOLVING COMMERCIAL PROBLEMS
Government Lending Aid to Certain
Industries.

Washington, d. c., Dec. s.-An in
novation in federal government bu-
reau methods, involving practical CO.
operative assistance to the mining,
metallurgical and certain other indus
tries Of the country in solving many
of the intricate and complex prob
lens in manufacture, is outlined in
the annual report of DR.. +. G. Cottrell,
director of the bureau, made public
to-day.
This new policy is described as di-
rect outgrowth of the World war. II
is declared that not only has the bu-
reau of mines adopted this advanced
co operation with the actual needs of
the Industries, but that the leading ma =
tions of the world are following suit,
determined not to be left behind in
the coming race for supremacy in the
industrial trade of the world. Great
Britain, il is said. is especially alive
TO this movement.
For this new work the bureau of
mines has thirteen well organized ex,
pertinent stations located in the differ
ent mining and metallurgical fields OF
the country, all fitted, Director Cottrell
says, with the necessary chemical and
laboratory apparatus as to enable it
TO take mp with the industries peculiar
TO its districts where the stations are
located the most pressing problems
that have baffled them, especially those
involving the treatment of low grade
ores, many of them heretofore useless,
aud turn them into commercial pro-
cesses Of value to the nation.
So successful have these methods OF
solving commercial problems been, &C
eording to the bureau of mines. that
at present the bureau has agreements
for experimental work with nineteen
industrial concerns, twelve different
universities. and with state agencies in
eleven states.
