TINKERINC WITH TRAFFIC LAWS
 IN NEW YORK
CRy Associated PressJ

NEW YORK, Sept 29. - Again they're tinkering with New York's traffic.
 The police department long has been unable to dodge the law of physics that two objects cant occupy the same space at the same minute. And with the number of automobiles in creasng daily and the crowd of pc. destrians holding it's own. the traffic problem is becoming worse.
 In the old days. traffic went up and down Broadway much the same way it does in any main street the country over though with the same hectic confusion that reigns in the subways beneath the world,famous thorough. fare
 But little while ago 1t was de cded that at night, at hours when most theater goers were bound up Manhattan to their homes. Broadway between 3Sth and oith streets should become a one-way street
 Now that plan has been abandoned. Merchants have complained that the northbound nightly traffic was divert ing to other thoroughfares business which should come to them. i So Special Deputy Police Commis- soner Harris has ruled that for 3O.day trial period two-way traffic shall be rcstored-to be regulated by signal towers such as have been oper- ating for many months on Fifth avenue to halt or proceed at the same moment. If a couple Of experimental towers work out all right on Broad way. the city will be asked to install one more.

 The United States, he added, take the initiatisve in the disarmament movement and the conference should be held in this country. Any gath ering looking to general disarmament should include France and Italy as we'll as the United States. Great Bri- tain and Japan, the former ambassa- dor said, but discussions looking to a reduction of naval building only should be limited for tn epresent at at least, to Great Britain, Japan and the United States.

Black Rock, who returned to his home here to- day after a four months vacation in England and Ireland. Mr. Jones made some keen observations during his stay on the other side
 While in Ireland I spent most of my time in Dublin. It is a beautiful city and I was sorry to see it so badly mutilated. It is. now nothing but an armed camp with soldiers, policemen and barbed wire everywhere Travel ing conditions are terrible.
 My brother and I started on a journey of 12 miles in an automobile During the trip we were held up and inspected by the soldiers six times.

When you do get a train 1t takes you all day to get anywhere The trains run slowly about 10 miles an hour. The reason for the delay is that the engineer must be able to stop the train upon a minutes notice so that the govern ment inspectors may search the pas sengers and the mail cars.
 ''The price of food in Ireland is about the same as in America Some things may be a little higher. But ter, for instance, is five shillings a pound which is equal to about SIPS Rooms aren't so scarce as they are in London In Dublin I stayed al the Central hotel. A few days after left the place those. three English officers were shot while eating there
 "Trave1ing about the city one day we happened to stop at a small hotel My friend and I noticed that there was unusual quiet When the maid came we asked her the reason. Three policemen were killed when they came in here yesterday she curtly replied. So you see that there is [ bit of a reason why we should be skeptical of our safety.

An alleged movement or the part of dealers to unload present supplies upon the public at existing prices is seen in view of an antici- pated break in the anthracite market The attitude of the buying public in establishing a weather market and covering themselves by small pur- chaseS with the diminishing of home supplies, is not favored by the retail purchases with the diminishing of homes upplies, is not favored by the retail and wholesale fuel merchants.
 That they have originated a scarcity as propa aganda to awaken the public to start a heavy buying movement and stock cellars with the high priced product. is claimed and sub- stantiated by reports that mines are forced to close because of lack of or ders from dealers.

He refused to admit or deny that the resignation had been asked for, but from a source so close to the board as to be unquestionable it was learn ed that the resignation was expect ed,' implying that it had been re- quested.
 Independent Action
 The County Commissioners are de- termining their own attitude in this matter independent of the action of the state bank examiner or Receiver Marcus H.

TO OPPOSE MERGING
 JAILS
c o unty Commissioners Brown On Lake Consol-
 idation Plan

Fairfield County jaiLs will not be changed, regardless of proposals of Governor Lake which will be sub- mitted to a conference of the high sheriffs of the state at Hartford next Tuesday.
 It was learned today that both field County Commissioners are op posed to any action which might tend to bring about a consolidation of the two jails in this county-at Danbury and in this city.
 Number Increasing.
 While it is admitted that some time ago the inmates were fewer in number than the old average, it is pointed cut that in the present period of unemployment with the incidental unrest, the number has increased in both places. That the jail must be maintained to meet this and similar emergencies is one reason for desir ing the continuance.
 The geographical features of Fair field county and the system of trans portation which cuts off the north western part of the county except by indirect and inconvenient routes also has been taken into consideration The fact also that there is county courthouse at Danbury will have much to do with the jail remaining there as at present.
 Pease Is Silent. Sheriff Pease declined to discuss the matter today and said he had nc knowledge of what would come up al Tuesdays conference. Although no' admitting that he would attend. he said he would know more about Gov ernor Lakes ideas after the meeting | and this is taken to indicate that he | will be present.
