Seeks to Restrain
 Local Savings Bank

Megis H. Waples, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Hartford Connecticut Trust Co.,, said yesterday that his bank filed a petition with the State Bank Commfssi oners ask ing that the Bridgeport Savings Bank this city, be restrained from opening branch banks in this city. MT. Wa ples believes that the state law pro- hibiting comm ercia1 state banks of Connecticut from opening branch banks contains differences applying to savings banks.
 In the Aninion of the Hartford Conn necttcut Trust Co. officials, the opening of branch banks with smaller banks serving a community need, is not good business. In the opinion of Bank Commissioner Bissland, ap- pointed to succeed former Conmis- stoner Sturges, his department would take no action in the matter until no- tified by the office of the State Attor- ney General.

|. "A VICTORY FOR THE INTERIOR

(By H. H. Corey, Public Service COMMISSIONER
DRESS dispatches indicate that Examiner Disque of
the Interstate Commerce Commission has recon-
mended that the applications of carriers for lower
rates from eastern points to the coast than to the nerme
date points be not allowed
All interior points may well rejoice at this victory Th
progression OF the theory of regulation of rail-
road and public utility rates by the regulatory bodies has
been manifest by recent decision The Interstate Com
nerce Commissions decision in the Columbia River Basin
rain Rates casAand the recommendations of Examiner
Dsque in these Fourth Section applications demonstrates
clearly that right eventually wins This has been long
long battle for the right it having been before the Inter-
state Commerce Commission repeatedly since the hstor-
cal Spokane rate case more than quarter of century
ago.
is realized by all that preferential rates have been the
most essential element in determining the growth of cities
and infuncing manufacturing activity throughout the
United States.
Coast terminal points have repeatedly Joined with the
cariRs nadoptng policy that would be vital influ-

teral from the farm and from the mines are easily avail
able. Power and fuel at hand and living is cheaper
because OF the prevalence OF FARMS and manufacturing
will now permit the rapid increase in population in
the interior and further development of our farm
lands
On the human sde it is far more desirable to have
large number Of relatively small factories and jobbing
houses scattered throughout the small cities and towns
than to have this business forever centered in the coast
cities
The foregoing comment by Mr. Corey is based on the
fact that the examiner for the interstate commerce COM
mttee has filed tentative report apparently unfolding
the contention of the intermediate rate association in it
tight against discriminatory rates to the coast cities Here
isa significant paragraph in the examiners report:
rail rates to farther distant points

That language sounds fair and is in accord with the
views expressed by those supporting the inteountain
country It is noticeable that coast papers are hail
ing the Dsque report as victory that prevents railroads

fromthe assured that the Countess
application would not injure ocean traffic. However,
that point is mnateria The main thing that by unit

FIGURES HELD INCORRECT.

Relative to some, figures as to

this paper with the following corr
rective statement:
'"rhe article in question states that
the freight rates on paint from the,

dred pounds. This is the carload
rate from Chicago, minimum 10000
POUNDS The loss than carload rate
is $3.50 per hundred pounds. The
article states that the rate on paint
from Pendleton to Utah is $2.11 per
hundred pounds. This Is incorrect.
