HUDSON RIVER MAY
 BE MADE SEA-B0yND
Officials to Inspect Waters for
 Better Transportation

New York, Oct. 17-A large party of federal and state officials and busi- ness men leave today on a trip of in- vestigation up the Hudson river and through the barge canal to Buffalo.
 The excursion is being held under the auspices of the New York State Waterways Conference committee, which issued a thousand invitations. The party is due in Buffalo Saturday.
 John A. Dunlop. chairman of the committee, in announcing plans for the trip said that the object was to ac- quaint business men andr legislators with the possibilities ~of water trans portation within the state. He declar- ed that the barge canal and Hudson river are the natural outlets for sea- bound shipments from theSMiddle West.
 Opposition to participation of the United States in building the proposed St Lawrence ship canal was voiced by MT. Dunlop. He pointed, out that 50 per cent of the federal taxes are paid by New York state and said-the com mittee objected to the use of any of this money for the construction of water way, the greater part of which would be on Canadian territory.
 The excursionists expect to make stops at Albany, Utica, Syracuse. Rochester and Buffalo, where recep- tfons have been arranged by local civic and trade organizations. Most of the trip will be made by water but certain portions will be covered by automobile

BOTH SIDES SEEM
 MUCH DISPLEASED
Neither Connecticut Company Nor Elm ployes Are Satisfied With, Arbi-
 tration Wage.


 New Haven, Oct 7.-Dissatisfaction with the award of the arbitrators in the Connecticut Companys controversy with their employss over new wage scale is said tO be- held by both sides. Joseph F. Berry. the company's ar bitrator, filed with the decision a min ute expressing objections to certain fea- lures of the award and while James Fl. vahey for the men approved of the finding the men themselves apparently are unsatisfied as it stands and will stand.
 It is understood the men object to the retroactive effect of the decrease in the wage scale because it will mean that each man will have to pay back an excess in wages paid since June l The men asked for a maximum wage scale of 60 cents an hour, the company had offered 50 and the award is 55. 1t was estimated today that man who work ed. regularly eas,sa -l.a si.rr June l would have to pay back in all about $50.
 No statement has been issued as yet by any officer of the Connecticut Go. as President l.. s. Storrs was away over the weekend John J Looney, president of the local ,trolleymen's s union would not comment today. The unions regular meeting will be Novem- Der 4. Members said that the reduc- ton in wages did not disturb them so much as the requirement to pay back the excess.
 The full decision of the arbitrators was signed by John K. Beach as chair man

All articles combined 2Is

In examining the relative figures
for the % articles given by the bu-
reau it is noted that flour is still 81
per cent above the prewar price and
bread in February was SO per cent
above the same average. These fig
ures are far above the average Of
all foods and next to hens represent
the highest relative prices of any
Of the articles listed. Since the
farmers are complaining bitterly
a-out the heavy drop in wheat
price, this raises the question
whether retail prices have declined
in anything. like the proportion in
wholesale prices and particularly
the prices which the farmer receives
for his grain. Such a comparison
can best be made on the basis of
relative price changes since 1913.
In the following table there is
given the relative price received by
the producer for wheat calculated
from the reports OF the Department
of Agriculture; also the wholesale
price of No. l northern wheat at
Chicago; the relative wholesale
price of standard -four at Kansas
City; the retail price of flour and
the relative retail price OF bread. In
each instance the relative price is
based on the average for 1913 equal
to 100. With the exception of the
price to the producer all relative
figures are either taken directly or
based on figures collected by the
Department of Labor:

PACT BADLY NEEDED

NEW YORK, March 3o.-"An Eng
lish-speaking alliance must be form
ed; the alternative Is the doom OF
civilization" Pemberton Billing.
member of the British Parliament
declared in an interview with the
United Press today.
Billing referred to the Irish sit
uation as "an irritant which. with
others, is continually thrust between
Britain and America in the hope
Of preventing such an alliance"
Billing is en- route to London after
a vacation in the West Indies.
"T preach a policy of hands on
Ireland" Billing said. The Irish
problem will be settled 30 soon as
others keep of. So long as Irish
martyrdom' can be kept before the
world, playing on the sympathtes
of outsiders, the question cannot
be settled.
"Outside the cunning districts in
Ireland, II is the freest country
in the world. 1t was the only
nation in the world war in which
conscription was not employed.
The Irish situation Is being
thrust between Great Britain and
America to keep them apart. Ger
many and Japan. and perhaps some
others. would like to see an alli-
ance prevented. Ireland offers one
opportunity.
I'm. my opinion, such an alliance
IS absolutely necessary. Surely n
these two nations. speaking a com
mon language and having most aims
in common cannot agree there is
small chance for a league of ma
tions.
"Disagreements result from mis-
understanding. Misunderstanding
arise because one nation cannot
transfer TO another language the
exact shade of thought intended. An
English-speaking alliance will save
civilization"
