East Providence early this month.
and have been staying at the West
minister home in this city for short
time. The woman. 1t is alleged. ate
up a letter after she was arrested

GERMANY NOT
To MAKE PLEA
Will Not Make Formal Appli-
cation to Get Into The
League of Nations.

BY The Associated Press.
GENEVA, Nov. 12.-Germany will
not take formal application for ad-
mission to the League of Nations,
but would not ignore an invitation to
become a member, said DIR. Hermann
Mueller. vice president of the fore
ign affairs committee of the German
Reichstag in statement to the
Journal de Geneve yesterday.
Germany will not ask the as
sembly to admit her to the league
he declared, because application
would give rise to a sharp discussion
in the assembly. for it is known GER
tain states have given indications
they would oppose her immediate
entry. / do not know whether they
have sufficient support to insure the
triumph of their viewpoint. But,
however, that may be. such discus
sion would not be without danger to
the league itself. Besides the Ger
man government does not consider
the league in its present form as per-
feet. How, indeed could it be, since
to mention only two states in In
cludes neither Russia nor the United
States, and universally is the funda-
mental condition of it's existence?
THAT, however. does not mean
that Germany would maintain re-
served attitude in the event of some
delegation raising the question of her
admission and if the assembly
should accept her Germany would
not decline an invitation resulting
from such a decision.

MAKES MANY SHIVER

by The Associated Press
NEW YORK, Nov. 13--The first
read cold snap of winter sent shivers
through thousands of New York
apartment dwellers, who were suf-
fering because of the lack of heat
due to acute coal shortage. Unable
to get promise of coal and the colder
weather in sight, they flocked to
dealers in oil, gas and electric heat
ers, and soon these appliances were
at a premium.
Conditions due to the coal short
age were described as ''Woeful" and
dangerous to the public health by
Commissioner of Health Copeland,
who has sent cut an appeal to the
interstate commerce commission to
issue priority orders for shipment
of domestic sizes to this city for at
least one week.

Perth Amboy situation

Perth Amboy has before the State
Board of Public Utility Com mission
ers the matter of grade-crossing
elimination, filed four years ago.
and if the supreme court finds the
state law constitutional 1t will be
possible to do away with grade
crossings in Perth Amboy. The
fight was started in this city in 1915
with Ferd Garretson. then mayor,
at the head of the movement. De-
spite the fact that all of the city's
case has been placed in the hands
of the utility commission, nothing
has come of it.
When the Fielder bill was passed,
calling for the elimination of al,
grade crossings in the state. Perth
Amboy was the first city to start
action to remedy conditions here.
Plans showing how the railroads
could eliminate their grade crossings
here were prepared and filed with
the utility commission. The city
stood the cost OF having these plans
made despite the fact that it was
the general opinion here that the
railroads should finance this part OF
the work.
Arguments on the question were
held and hearings We're adjourned
from time TO time. Finally in July,
1916, the last arguments were heard
ard the matter went to the utility
commission for decision. Nothing
has ever been heard from that body
