Raad this Important Paragraph from
a letter from the Factory Of the
famous Tires
VIKING CORD
THE TIRE OF SUPERIOR QUALITY
AT A MODERATE PRICE

We pay our Workmen in Tires a very
high wage We keep the number Of each
Tire which each man makes. Then. if
there are any just complaints, we refer
to the number of the Tire, and the man
who has made it have to pay the claim
The w0rkmen agree to this, because
they receive very much higher pay than
is customary in other factories; and by
having to pay the claim ii there is
any--is undoubtedly the cause that they
take special care in the construction of
these tires; and to this is due the great
record of the Viking Tires.

THE RAILROAD CONFERENCE.

A meeting to which the people of New
England cannot fail to attack too much
Importance is that of the heads Of rail-
road systems which might be affected by
the redivision Of revenues from through
freight rates between trunk lines west of
the Hudson and the New England roads,
which has been called for early next
week
A readjustment of the rates has been
sought from the interstate commerce
commission, which body is particularly
anxious that it should be adjusted by
the roads that are interested instead of
having the commission mix into such a
matter. That is unquestionabiy the pref
cradle way if it can be accomplished.
The first conference showed a recogni-
ton Of the needs of the New England
roads but no agreement could be reached
regarding the adjustment Of rates, and
it is uncertain what the coming session
win bring forth.
Possibly all the trouble with the New
England roads may not be due to the
rates which 1t Is desired changed, but
there Is no question about the difficulties
with which they are faced and it has
been plainly declared that there must be
relief or there will be results which will
have detrimental effects upon the entire
railroad systems of the country.
From a presentation Of the 'situatio1
in detail such as can be expected at tn,
coming conference there should be
basis for action which will insure the fu
ture of the New England roads and fur
nish them with revenue which they neec
but are not getting because Of inequali
ties which ought to be eliminated. Mucl
will depend upon the result of the effor
by the New England roads as to tn,
character Of the service that can be ex
pected in the future. The help is needet
TO overcome the danger of banizruptc,
and put the roads in a position to obtail
money and meet the transportation need
Of this part of the country.
The Importance of transportation IA
cflities cannot be disregarded by thi
part Of the country and when railroad
are concerned New England states ar
vitality interested.

A cable II miles In length is now laid

which a ship fitted with a receiving ap-

its way. Such an invention, II adopted
in all the more difficult ports or navI-

A Census Surprise-If you were asked
In wiieh country OF the world were to
be found the greatest number Of people

In such a case You would be wrong. For
there are more in the United States. Ac-
cording TO the census figures for 1920, as
quoted by this months world Work, u
the United States contains more people OF
British origin, exclusive Of Irish, than
Great Britain does. The actual figures
are So millions, against 81 millions in

WHISKEY RUNNING,

Whiskey running is getting to be one
of the most exciting sports on Co 1nee-
ticut highways this winter. Heretofore
the speedsters were recognized as enian-
gering all users of the highways but
with the drivers of high powered cars,
who probably, get high fees for their ser
vices, driving their machines in the most
reckless manner and in disregard Of the
rights Of others, in violation of the law
and in disregard of all efforts that are
made to stop them it can be appreciated
that the authorities have before them a
bigger problem than ever but ore that
must be dealt with.
Lawfbreakers have found the autemo-
bile to be of the greatest assistance in
the commission of crime. It permits then
to descend upon a town and get away
with excellent chances Of not being
caught, and what has been found of sc
much value to the criminal Is now beins
employed for the breaking of other laws
Full advantage is taken of coed roads
and speed is relied upon to render pow
erless such efforts as most o. the author
tiles are able to bring to bear.
Firearms even hold no terror for tn
drivers of the cars. Just what steps ar,
taken to give protection from such
danger is unknown, and it may be tina
reliance is placed up6n euch means beint
used to cripple the car rather than iii

PICKING OUT DEsIRABLHs.

On the return Of Immigration Commits
sioaer Caminetti from a trip through Eu-
rope made for the purpose of getting &C.
quAinted with immigration, he makes the
suggestion that It would be far prefera-
bic Y the wedding out Of those who are
allowed to come into this country should
be done in the countries from which
they come instead of after reaching ports
in this country. In advocating this ac-
tion he takes the same view that others
have and from such a plan It ca nbe re-
ahzed that it would be possible to better
determine the desirability Of the appli-
cants and there would be eliminated the
expense Of crossing and re-crossing the
ocean for the would-he immigrants.
In this connection It is recognized that
there is much that can be done by for
eign countries for those seeking to 20
elsewhere. by informing them Of the con-
dtcons which must be met bat such can
hardly be expected from countries which
arc deSirous Of keeping their people ut
hOme- Likewise they would hardly be
willing to ship OF all the desirables and
keep the undesirables at home 1t Is the
latter class they care the least about and
