MOTOR TRUCK DRIVER WAS
 NnT CRraIra- AIrN N-ECr rl

No criminal act of omission or care lessness caused the death of Francis E. Brown. who died in the NIiddlesex hos- pital. September 9, as the result of in- juries received in an automobile ac- c.dent .n the village of Winchester, town or Colchester. August 27. Mir. Brown was driving a wagon which was in collision with a motor truck driven by Christopher Walsh of Bridgeport. The finding in full Is as follows:
 q find that Francis E. Brown was struck by an automobile in Winches- Der. Conn. on the morning of Aug. 27, 1921. and died in the Middlesex hospi- taI 0u Sept 2 1921 from the injuries then received.
 "A long. steep hill crosses the high way at the place of the accident. heavy truck was coming down the hill Mir. Brown with his wife and a boy were ,dr .nr on the highway toward the place where the accident occurred.
 "Acco-lirc to the testimony, when The wagon was first seen by the driv- CT Of the truck ittwas about 90 or 40 feet away Mrs. Brown was driving then. The warning signal was sound cd from the truck during the time it came down the hiI.
 "lI-s. Brown turned toward the truck and looked at the driver but did not S-oD. At a diStane of 30 or 40 feet each driver had Q clear view Of the other The truck had the right ot way and that fact ought to have been well known to all persons com i-r where the roads meet.
 Taking the testimony in the case as a correct statemeZ+ of what occurred tte driver of the truck, when the wagon was seen 30 or 40 feet away, could not stop his nadine.
 "Tre horse became frightened, or, a- any rat= became very uneasy and turned the wagon against the truck eith sufficient force to upset it. Ac- c0rlin- "a. the evidence it was not the truck which struck the wagon, but -te wagon striking the truck which caused the wagon to upset.
 Prom the testimony it seemed the warning signal was given by the driv- CT of the truck before coming to the crossing. that the driver of the wagon did not pay sufficient attention to the possible danger at the crossing bu kept on her way.
 "I do not find that any person, ol persons would be held to answer by any reason of criminal act, ommisior or care-essress for the deathq

LEAVES DISARMAMENT TO
 WASHINGTON CONFERENCE

Geneva. Sept ls. CBy the A P.)-The commission on disarmament of tho cour- cil of the league of nations in it's full report issued today finds that the Wash ington conference can better deal with the question of naval disarmament than the league and that it can be more ef- fectively secured by common agreement among the great powers.
 The discussion Of this subject by the assembly commission thus far is in line with this conclusion. involving a slow but sure policy. With regard to land arma- ments also it appears that the same pollcy has the upper hand.
 Mankind is still too far removed from the ideals Of peace to make possible at present the solution of the question cf disarmament" is the final conclusion Of the councils commission.
 The replies to the asseuhly's request that the governments limit their expcndi- lures for the purpose Of a-mamnts for two vars to the amount of his years budget are quoted in support Of the com missions recommendation.
 Only Bolivia, Guatemala and China adopted this recommendation uncondi- tionally- Belgium. Australia and Canada accepted 1t with the reservation contain ed in the recommendation hself. which was that ayn contribution of troons. asked by the league should not be included in i the total Great Britain. New Zealand, India and Taly accepted it with the res ervatioa that the recommendation must be adopted hE all the other powers. Holland agreed, on the understansirs that account be taken of the rising prices. Spain and France held that budgets did not afford a fair indication Of military l strength.
 Finland and Poland declared that spe. cial geographical and political situation, ] made 1t impossible to agree to the leaugue's plan Greece pleaded a state of war and Turkey and Jugo SSavis found the condition of international af. fairs unfavorable. Japan deemed it ad. visable to await the conclusion of ,n, councils plan for disarmament.

PUBLIC TRAFFIC. BUREAU

r. f. Eckels who up to a short
time ago was employed in the offices
Of the Oklahoma, New Mexico ami Pa
cific Railroad in this city has estap-
lished offices in suite 521 Simpson
building where he is establishing the
Southwestern Public Traffic Bureau.
The offices Of this bureau will be to
adjust all freight bills, storage bills,
etc, of its clients.
Mr.. Eckels is prepared to render ef-
ficient service, that preparation comes
from years Of railroad work and he
should have no trouble in building up
large clientele that viii make his
business both serviceable to the people
and profitable TO himself.
There is in the entire state but one
other such rating bureau. The bust
ness from a large portion of Oklahoma
should come in here for adjustment and
for the reason that he charges no fees
unless he makes recoveries he should
experience no difficulty in obtaining
business of firms that use the rail-
way and express companies.

can not be banked on until the ac-
tual valuation is finally appraised by
the state board of equalization which
meets at Oklahoma City this month,
II was hoped that the suggestions Of
fered by the citizens last night would
bring UP the revenues Of the city
enough to justify the budget remain
ing with its present improvements.
City Attorney T. 3. Orr gave his
opinion this was practicable In the
event. however, that it is found the
revenues can not be increased 10
overcome the estimated $4,000 diff
frence between the estimated collec-
tions and the budget, further down
ward revisions will have to be made.
Barron Secures Fair Building
One big feature OF the meeting was
the concession obtained by Secretary
Barron of the Chamber Of Commerce
in persuading the commission to grant
$1,000 for a building at the fair
grounds Mr.. Barron stayed with
the commission until adjournment and
finally won out in his contention. He
pointed out that the merchants Of the
city had given approximately $1,000
in special premiums and that the
county had granted over $1,000 in
cash premiums. The merchants real
ly expected the city 10 erect a build
ing. he said. The actual needs in
building exceeded $4,000, Mr.. Bar
ron said However, in view Of the
difficulties the commission had in
keeping within the estimated collec-
tlons he withdrew his demands for
all but the $1,000 building necessary
for the booths.
The fire department, with the adj
dition of four men, will be placed
on a two platoon system. Each man
will be allowed a certain amount Of
time off every day, which will vary
from six TO 10 hours.

II was pointed out that the school
board has been authorized TO levy q

it will not levy its limit Last year
