The estimate for railroad net operat
ing income for June. 1921, is now
S50,00o,000. Roads having total
mileage of 1902 have reported.
The Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
in June, 1921, showed q substantial
operating income. as against deficit
in June, 1920. The Southern Railway
did the same and the Bangor &
Aroostook changed small deficit in
1920 into a small operating net income

Beth. Steel and U. s. Steel Bonds

Question: wish to invest in high
grade non-callable bond having about
twenty years to run. Do you regard New
York Telephone AS. 1882. and Rethie-
hem Steel first and refunding SIS, 1912, as
safe investments? Is the difference in the
market quotation OF the latter and OF
United States Steel sinking fund IS due
to the higher security of The last named
or TO the chance OF its being called at q
premium? Are Northwestern Bell Tele-
phone rs. 194I. callable? How do you re-
gard Chesapeake & Ohio first consolidated
bs, 1888? How do these compare with
Northern States Power SIS. 194l?--G. w. S.
Answer-We consider both New York
Telephone 41as and Bethlehem Steel
first and refunding 5s as good invest
nents, with preference for the tele-
phone bonds. The difference in market
price between the United States Steel
sinking fund SIS and the Bethlehem Steel
IS is. in our opinion, largely due to the
higher security of the United States
Steel bonds. The Northwestern Bell is,
due 1871, are callable at a premium.
We think that the Chesapeake e. Ohio
first consolidated SIS are good invest
ment, but we would prefer the North
ern States Power first 5s. The hydro
electric situation seems to be favorable
to such companies as the Northern
States Power, while the railroad situa-
ton has not as yet become satisfac-
tory

INVITING COLLISION

Unless it has met with disaster since it's last visit to the vicinity of the earth in 1915 the Winnecke comet will again give us a call in June of this year. Concerning this comet state ments have recently been made that in all probability the comet and the earth may collide with each other a. bout the end of June when the former will be in perihellion, or at its near est approach to the sun.
 The facts are that the. comet which when at it's farthest point from the earth and sun. passes near the orbit of Jupiter, was about August, 1918. in that position at the same time as Jupi- ter. and though it was then invisible in the most powerful telescopes. there is no doubt. that it was considerably pulled about by the attraction of the planet. In all probability it's orbit was so changed that when it next reaches perihelion at the end of June it will make an exceptionally near approach to the earth the two being almos

MORE POWER CONFERRED ON
 NORWICH SCOTT C0TrSc

As the policy of the national headquar- ters of the Boy Scouts of America Is to decentralize many of its former funct;oi.s much of the work formerly done by the national headquarters at New York is now delegated to local councils. This particularly applies to first class coun- ci1s. For instance. troop of scouts reg isters at local headquarters, a duplicate copy of the registration papers is sent 10 New York, but the registration cards for the individual scout are issued from the local office thereby avoiding delay and mistake as sometimes happened when the registrations were sent out from national headquarters.
 . This also applies to merit badges. These also after being passed upon by the local examiner and the local court of honor are issued in the same way as are the registration cards, a duplicate record being sent to New York city.
 Thus it seems that the policy of the Boy Scout council has been greatly i'm proved. The whole plan is now similar | to our national and state form of gov l ernment, the national headquarters cor. responding to the federal government and the local councils to the state The wisdom of this policy is self evident for the councils like the states themselves are the best judges o6 their own af. fairs.
 The Norwich council, hereafter, will be in a position to go forward much more independently than heretofore and it is hoped that the existing troops ir the city will take advantage of the new order of things and progress along tn, lines of scoutcraft, nature study and al activities. It is the intention and wish of tn, committee of the court of honor 10 pro mote the study of merit badge subject and establish regular systematic meth od of procedure. More definite state ments will be sent to the scout masters merit badge examiners and members 70 the Court of Honor as soon as the com mittee meets to act on that subject.

 STRUCK BY ATToNoRJTE

Michael Piazanza, 10, of 123 Frank lin street, was dlit and knooIsed down in Franklin street about lo cSSlock by the automobile driven by Dr. W. T. Browne. The boy was slightly hurt, receiving a bump on his head and bruised elbow.

Dr. Browne took the child home and later visited him again in the evening to see that he was not se- riously injured.
