in the battle of ballots in this country, but more from an academic point of view than one of selfish interest. Commenting on the election MT. Smith said:
 About our election-I could not see any great interest in it. The inn pression I got was that the English people expected nothing from the present administration because of the deadlock between Congress and the Executive. I got the further impress sion that they felt that MT. Harding's administration would realize after while that our own self interests would require us to take a hand in readjusting the troubles in Europe. Our present troubles here seem to prove the truth of the feeling over there that the world is so closely bound together these days that one portion of it cannot be sick without affecting all the other portions of it. They expect us to realize that before long-and act accordingly"

CONN. 60. PLEADS FOR
 BAN 0N ALL JITNEYS
Pres. Storrs Protests That TrOlleys Are Unable
 to Compete.

Hartford, Nov. 23.-whiIe Presi- dent Storrs of the Connecticut Co. was today telling the public utilities commission why it had been decided to withdraw trolley service from Wat erbury and surrounding towns the city of Waterbury was without jit- ney service.
 Many Waterbury city officials and officers of the Jitneymen's association came to Hartford this morning to attend the hearing at the capitol or the question of discontinuing the street railways service
 President Storrs told the commits sion that it was the desire of the trustees to bring to a head in the state the whole question of jitney and trol- ley competition before cold weather. The company wanted to bring about in the cities of Connecticut an answer to the question of whether or not the Jitney should be permitted to run on streets served by trolleys. That was why order for withdrawal of Wat erbury service was issued last week Mir Storrs asserted. It was a case of getting a show down before winter, the president of the company argued. MT. Storrs was the first to be heard at the hearing. He read rather lengthy statement in which it was as- serted that the company had been able to operate it's cars at a profit on but one day. November 1, when the fare was raised to ten cents and when there were no jitneys on the principal streets of the city.
 MT. Stores said the Waterbury trol- leys were in danger of suspending by mid-winter with unrestricted jitney service. He said that since the Water bury ordinance restricting jitney ser vice was rescinded the Waterbury trolIeys had been operated on returns of s610 a day less than during the summer months. During the one day that the jitneys were restricted the increase in revenue was s44s a day, or a total of s4,372.
 Opposing the ten cent fare were per- sons from woodbury, watertown, Thomaston and Naugatuck
 Mir. Storrs said the company had sent letters to every town and city in which trolleys operated requesting the barring of jitney competition.
 C. l.. Kilen of Naugatuck quizzed MT. Storrs concerning his authority to summarily dismiss trolley service in Waterbury.
 MT. Storrs replied that the proposed ordinance in Waterbury was before the trustees. who authorized him to suspend operations 1T the ordinance allowing jitney service on East Main street was enacted.
 Asked by Chairman Higgins if 1t was not true that the jitneymen were claiming the ordinance favored the trolley company, Mir. Storrs replied:
 'T am impressed by the astuteness of the jitneymen in suspending opera tions today"
 There was a shortage of Sl25.000 on the Waterhury division from LapuarX

LOCAL MANUFACTURER, JUST BACK FROM
 LONDON, REPORTS BUSINESS BAD THERE
Charles F. Smith Finds Conditions Discouraging War Cipples Seen Everywh ere Little Live Inter-
 l4esfanG. s. Elections Manifested.

Charles Smith, chairman of the board of directors of Landers Frary and Clark, who arrived in New York Saturday on the Aqutania from Eng land, says that conditions in London are at the present time, far fram encouraging due to the lack of em- ployment.
 The absence of young men on the streets. and the numebr of blinded and crippled war veterans were es- pecially noticeable. In London, there are blind soldiers working in the windows making baskets and brushes or all kinds. Luxury is absent, and it is MT. Smiths impression that there are more motor vehicles on the streets of Hartford than there are in the city of London. All prices are high, es- pecially food, and this fact, coupled with unemployment and constant la Dor troubles. makes a feeling of un- rest, the effects of which are felt all over the British empire Judging from former visits. MT. Smith is of the opinion that the people as a whole are downhearted, and they view the future with no degree of optimism. In fact, they have no hopes for better conditions during the long cold win ter facing them.
 Soldier Memorials
 Commenting of the war memorials in England, Mir. Smith said:
 As you go through the smaller
 Commenting on the war memorials ials everywhere, almost invariably taking the form of a simple granite cross with the names of the soldiers written around the base-simple and not expensive. The much talked about cenotaph-London's War Memorial will not fin my Judgment cost any more than our own Soldiers Monu- ment in Central Park. There is no getting away from the fact that Eng land. speaking generally. is poor and realizes it.'' sH
