NOW COMES FRANCE

The necessity of taking as merely tentative the plans or agreements said to have been decided upon by the powers represented at Washington is today shown by the news that France has made suggestion which is not in accord with the principles primarily laid down by Secretary of State Hughes Frances position seems to have changed since the day Briand said that he had listened with great joy to the ''very large, broad and gen eral adhesion given in principle by the governments of Great Britain and Japan" It was quite naturally suppos- ed that M. Briand referred to the first of the -four principles" proposed, namely: "The elimination of all capi- tai shipbuilding programs either actual or projected" and the other. Regard should be had to the existing naval strength of the conferring powers
 The 5-5-3 ratio was decided upon in accordance with the combination of these principles. Today the report comes that France asks for ten 35,090 ton capital ships to be built during the suggested ten-year naval holiday. She brings forward the argument that her plan made in 1912 and which was interrupted by the war, was to build ships aggregating 45O, ,O00 tons to her shipping which would then amount to some 540,000 tons.
 Italy objects, knowing that she would have to enter upon an era of shipbuilding to bring her tonnage up to that of France. Great Britain ob- iects more strenuously, insisting upon Frances maintenance of only about half the ratio asked. Japan's insistence on retaining the Mutsu, and the con seauent intention of the other powers to the triple naval agreement to build to equal that increased tonnage or to refrain from scrapping ships intended to be put out Ot commission III tNCoru- ance with the 5-5-3 plan, may have stirred France to this action
 The reports that come are not from our delegates; the pledge of secrecy exists; reports must be taken as ques- tionabe, but one of such rumOrs has it that France is not taking the posi- ton of demanding the increase asked, but seeks compromise which would not endanger the arrangements al ready so near completion. Certainly France, of all the nations represented with the exception of the United States would be the last to demolish by any demand of hers outside that which is necessary, especially in regard to land forces, to keep her Gafe from the enemy she will always watch and which, with France, the world will watch for years to come, .perhaps for ever.

TROLLEY FARE TEST.

The receipts from the Bridgeport creased by $500 in the second week of the test. As it was the week of December fourth the small increase cannot well be attributed to increase travel caused by Christmas shopping. The. y,-rort of President Storrs Of the .Connecticut comf@ny bears out this belief. He says that the receipts nor mally increase in the last three weeks of December, which would exclude the week mentioned, and in which the increase was made.
 Were one anxious to explain away this evidence Of the truth Of the be- lief that the trolley would pay better were the short run fares 10 be re- duced to five cents, it might be said that with the coming of winter and winters cold more people rode than during the warmer months. The trouble with such explanation, how ever. would be that the weather was not so cold the week in question as to drive people to the refuge of the cars; rather, if would seem, the tenn perature was such as to induce them to take a brisk walk instead of riding to their business or pleasure.
 As previously predicted it is prob able that this increased patronage was duo to disappearing of preju- dice. n determination 10 give the test fair trial, a growing familiarity with the change which, strange as it may seem. was not known to many when the price of fares was reduced.
 Whatever the situation in Fridge portland as the figures for receipts continue to come in they substantiate the conviction that they will continue to incrcase--it is felt here that great ly increased patronage Of the trolley would come with a similar lowering of the fares; also. that such increase would swell receipts far above those now enjoyed by the company.
 But granting this to be true, the

 A number of prominent women voters have told the Observer that they intend to consult with Mrs. A. G. Kimball of the board of education with q view to securing the return of Miss Molly Young to the teaching force of the public schools Miss Young taught here until about five years ago when she resigned because, it is alleged, conditions were made unpleasant for her. Since then she has been an instructor in the public schools of South Manchester,

 In the imtator something else is | natural, and he bercaves himself of his own beauty to come short Of an l other mans,
 By trusting your own heart you
 shall gain more confidence in other men.
 An>ost the sole topic of conversa-
 ton in C,y hall is the notice sent out by Chairman Eichstaedt of the common council committee on sal aries, urging commissions to prepare readiustmcnts of salaries paid public employees Thus far, the commissions have unanimously rejected all thought of recommending establishments downward and when the subject is presented to the council for discus sion it is expected that a warm de- bate will be precipitated.
 There are always twos sides to the
 salary argument-the taxpayers and the employees. The former have complained with growing frequency of late that they are not receiving a proportionate return for money they contribute to the city treasury and there has been an insistent demand for q reduction in the rate. As there has been a descending trend in eX- penses in private businesses they are , clamoring for corresponding retrench- m in 10 ll,c IF nj On the other hand, the employes argua--and with a great deal of jus | tiCe-that there has been no appreci- | able reduction in the cost of living and that, therefore, it would work a hardship on them and their families | to have their incomes cut They also | point to the fact, which is hardl! | open to dispute, that their incomes
 were not increased to the same extent
 as employees in factories and business | houses in general when prices of life's | necessities were at the peak. Sub Sanitation of this claim was given by Chairman Humphrey of the Board oi Public Works who, as a manufacturer | knows what he is talking about It would be unfair to view public | employees, particularly those in offices | in the same light as common labor They require special knowledge Of | their tasks and frequently have to be l familiar with details of law in dis posing of daily problems. They hold positions Of responsibility and are de | serving of salaries commensurate with | .hat degree of responsibility. There is also objection*to reducing | the pay of policemen and firemen on ! the part of commissions which ad- minister the affairs of these two branches of service. To be candid, it would be a travesty on justice to cut the pay of the fremen. It will be recalled that City meeting author ized the city government to install a two platoon system and money was appropriated. But the system never was naugurated and the money will be spent for other purposes. To cut the hremen's pay in view of this sit laton would be adding insult to injury.

INTERESTING DECISION

The decision of the Georgia court of Tappoals that an insurance policy con- 'tMnipg clause which makes 1t m- |contcstahlc for any cause after it hos run a year. k not invalidatcd because the insured was legally hanged, is in- Itercsting and important II is 10 he doubted iC there are previous legal Iprccodrnts to govern such case. For the sake Of tho argument lot |it ho supposed that this is new law seldom is it that a court has an op- Iportuuity to fail back entirely upon its own reasoning, unaffected by decisions
 of the past With inc changing times 1t would seem that often departure from precedent would he wise, and be it said that courts do take judicial notice" of many matters today through which they may depart from precedent of the past and make an equitable decision under present day
 conditions,
 The main argument of the insur- ance company was that it would be against public policy to pay on such
 an insurance document This must mean that the company insisted pay ment would tend to increase crime the
 penalty for which was hanging. Is the argument sound? Was the decision good or bad law?
 Men have committed suicide in order that the benehciaries or benef-
 ciary, the wife, perhaps, might secure the insurance on his life. Murders have
 been committed to gain insurance on
 the life of the victim. Men have pre-
 tended to commit suicide, but have in reality only disappeared in order that a confederate might collect the insur- ance and share it with the supposed
 dead man. But none of these things
 would tend to increase crime except possibly that of suicide the penalty for which is not death.
 Nor would the payment Of the policy in question have that tendency. No man commits a crime the penalty for
 which is hanging for the purpose of
 giving some beneficiary the insurance
 on his life Weird imaginings may con jure up cases where such q motive
 would exist, but it would exist in the imagination only. In this, as in all criminal law, the motive is the essen-
 tial feature to be considered. The con
 tract of insurance is taken to mean
 what it says, and in such interpreta-
 ton there is no tendency to give
 motive to person to commit a crime to which the death penalty is attached. The decision is good law.
