kEEpING HOPE AIINE.

Possibly somewhat to the surprise of
Providence and other points which have
been looking for the extension of the
Grand Trunk railroad from Palmer to
Providence by the construction OF the
Southern New England, there was opposi-
ton to the extension of the charter
rights of the road Large OUTLAWS have
been made IN the way Of acduirir- ~
.erty and grading but large expenditures
remain to be made, as we'll as some suits
to settle, and It Is not believed that the
Canadian government is going to furnish
the money for the building Of this extern
sion when so much Of it Is needed In other
ard necessary ways.
This extension was projected at a TINT
when there was a period of railroad riv-
airy. It was impossible for the roads In
Kew England TO come to certain under.
standings during Mr. Melons connection
with the New Haven road SO It was de.
termined to break into another section o.
New England. Money was spent unit
halt was called and nothing has beer
done since. The suggestion has even beer
made that the New York Central nigh
take over and build the extension but 1
is not interested ana that would indicat
that conditions do not demand it.
That the Grand Trunk possesses q
present an outlet in southern New Eng
land that can take care Of all its require
ments cannot fail TO be recognized by tn
Canadians. 1t is the logical route to fol
low in any development which It ma,
have in mind in this direction, but It
quite natural that there should be De
sire on the part Of those interested /
the proposed new line to get an exten
sion Of rights for the protection Of whs
has already been spent and any possihil
ity that may develop in the future
There appears, however, to be littl
ground for believing that there is an
chance of that stretch of railroad bein
constructed. Perhaps it will ehcoufae
Rhode Island in the belief that such wi
some day transpire. If the charter is e1
tended figuring on the basis that AZ len

ON THE TAnfFr BOARD.

With the confirmation By the senate Of
Thomas o. Marvin Of Boston as q mem
Der of the tariff commission it is fair to
presume that the senate looked with IA
vor upon the nomination made by Presi-
dent Harding. In connection with his
selection mention has been made of the
fact that he is protectionist and the
inference that such was intended to con-
vey was that because Of that fact he
ought not to be placed on the eonnais-
sion.
While the commission is not expected
to be made I'm OF men whose views are
known to be alike in advance, 1t Is to be
realized that men who can be rated as
experts on the question Of the tariff are
needed fer such work as the commission
does and for help as 1t can render to the
national legislators. Because Mr.. Marvin
Is a protectionist, or because he is the
secretary OF the Home Market club
doesn't necessarily mean that the COM
mission is going to be likewise. but 1t does
/ mean that it iszaoing to have the ser.
vices OF a member who can be relied up.

IN 1908, a year after the British
cables was laid, and American Pacific
cables was established extending 1s46
miles from San Francisco to the Philip

nections from there to Shanghai and
Japan to the north and the Dutch East

Just what Mr.. Hoover's plans are In
connection with his desire to make the
department. of coMmerce the real vital
factor in the economic life Of the country
that it ought to be have not been dis
closed. It is bit too early to expect
that he has been able to even map them
out in the brief time that he has been
cabinet member but there Is ne denying
the fact that he enters upon his duties
with the interest and enthusiasm that
precedes Accomplishment. He is not sat-
isfied to be at the head Of . department
which Is not contributing to better con-
ditiens. He Is net willing to stand still
but calls for progress and efficiency. How
hA proposes to obtain 1t and what course
he will pursue can be expected to be set
forth in due time after he has gotten
his bearings and thoroughly understands
the limitations and the needs.
One Of the interesting things in con-
nectiou with the statement which Mr..
Hoover has made regarding the vitalizing
Of his department, even though 1t may
not mean putting through Of his entire
programme, is that he will not require
additional legislation or money to pat
into effect his policy. 1t il to be realized
that many Of the government efforts
which might be expected to come under
the direction Of the department Of com.
