MAKES COMPLAINT
 AGAINST JITNEYS
Attorney Arthur ". Upson Also
 Attacks Attitude Of Conn. Co.

The railroad committee of the com mon council in session last night held hearing on the proposed changes on Arch street whereby the Connecticut company will be asked to again run the trolleys on that line. Attorney Arthur w. upson appeared as a rep resentative of the people living on and in the vicinity of Arch street, and he strenuously opposed the reopening of the line while at the same time he tlayed the jitney bus line oper- ated by John Hall,
 Three Want Trolleys. =.
 He stated that there were only three persons on Arch street who sought to have the trolleys run again on that line They are a MT. Hjerpe, hardware dealer, a Mir. Chaser and Albertue W. Mason, he said He stated that he was not in favor of having the trolley tracks torn up be- cause of the expense involved, but said that If the trolleys were started again, there would be a boycott of them by the former patrons. He stated that the local management of the Connecticut Go. had utterly dis regarded the rights of the patrons and

the people on that line are against running the trolleys there,
 Continuing. Attorney Upson said that there is a great deal of difference In the bus service as furnished by MT. Hall and the other jitneur driv- ing busses on the line. He stated that Halls busses were such ramshackle affairs, that chauffeurs are ashamed to drive them.
 Halls Bus Line.
 He also stated that Hall makes no effort to adhere to a schedule on the line while his brother jitneur does his best for the line and the patrons. Hall makes no attempt to please the patrons, he said, nor have his drivers any sense of fairness. They drive with their cut outs open. and often cut in ahead of their competitors for passengers. Sometimes also, accord ing to him, they faii to complete their runs, thereby inconveniencing their passengers.
 Councilmen Speak. -.
 Councilman Lynch said that the committee had no power to revoke the jitney franchises, but they could recommend to the public utilities commission that the franchise be re- voked. He said that he believed in ma king the jitneurs live up to their agreements. Councilman Henry Rice stated that Hall, through smooth talk ing got away with things before the public utilities commission and again before the transportation committee.
 No Vote Taken.
 Attorney Upson said that he could within 24 hours get 100 signatures to petition requesting that Halls franchise be revoked. The commit tee, however, took no vote on the matter, but decided that if there is

Former Secretary of Navy Takes Exception to Pub

DESCRIBES CONFERENCE
Declares American Navy Was Instrumental For Adoption
 of Convoy System

WASHINGTON, Oct 25.-Declaring "a wholly wrong impression" of inn pression" of important historical facts had been given in one of the recently published letters of Franklin K. Lane, secretary of the interior under Presi- dent Wilson, Josephus Daniels. who sat in the Wilson cabinet as q secre- tary of the navy telegraphed The As sOciated Press tonight a story of the events which he said had led up to the adoption of the convoy system of protecting American ships early in 1917.
 Mir. Daniels message sent from reference to one of the Lane letters, saying that at a cabinet meeting on February 25, 1917, Daniels said we must not convoy-that it would be dangerous" The letter also attributed to President Wilson a suggestion that this country was not willing that we should take any risks of war
 Fortunately I kept a diary in those days" said Mir. Daniels telegram. Here is exactly what happened at that cabinet meeting in February be, fore we entered the war:
 President Wilson turned to me and asked: Daniels, why have the British not conveyed their ships?
 Tn reply, informed him that the policy of the British admiralty was against the convoy; that after long experience in the war the merchant captains preferred to take their chances sailing singly than in convoy formation, and that they regarded it more dangerous in U-boat zones to sail in company under convoy than for each merchant ship to go on it's own. I added that some of our naval affi' cers of high rank held this same view. That was the only use l made of the word dangerous
 "The president replied that he be lieved that the British admiralty was wrong and those American naval off i (Continued on Page Two)

NEW BRUNSWICK. Oct. 25. - (By The Associated Press.) Mrs. Jane Gibson, alleged eye witness of the Gibson, alleged eye witness of the Hall-Mills murder, signed a statement today giving the name of a woman who, she declared, was one of the staying party and reports immediately werec irculated that the arrest of the woman always prominent among those under investigation-was immin- ent.
 Wilbur A. Mott, special prosecutor in charge of the case, was quoted to the effect that therem fight be an ar rest within an hour. But tonight MT. Mott added to his quoted utterance a phrase which he says he used in the first instance-''or in two weeks
 He intimated, although he would not say definitley. that no arrest would be made until the case has been laid be fore the Somerset county grand jury and an indictment-or indictments returned He declined to say when he would go before that body.
 While 1t was true, MT. Mott said that Mrs. Gibson, farmer and pig raiser. had signed a statement today, that document did not contain any thing else she has not already told the authorities, and he could see no pres ent need for an immediate arrest. He declared, however, that he was ready to order one or several arrests with out waiting for grand jury action if circumstance made haste advisable.
 MT. Mott expressed skepticism as to Mrs. Gibson's identification in heI statement of the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall - victim with Mrs. Eleanor R.

Little Welshman in Fighting Speech Cannot Understand
 Reason For Upheaval
FACED WITH DECISION
Declares Interests of Nation Must Come First in
 Preference to Party

LONDON, Oct. 25.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-Former Prime Minister Lloyd George began his campaign in London today with fighting speech to an enthusiastic meeting of the cOa- lition liberal members of Parliament, throwing down the gauntlet to the conservatives, whose attack upon the late government, he declared, left no alternative but to spread the war"
 The little Welshman stood by his Manchester speech of last Saturday reiterating his intention to support any party or government pursuing a policy of peace, economy and steady progress, neither revolutionary nor reactionary.
 We are confronted" said Mir. Lloyd George, with a very important decis- ion affecting not merely the future of those here and those who support them in the country, but a decision which affects the interest of the coun- try itself. That is a more important matter for us all.''
 "One chapter in the history of the politics of this country is for the mo ment closed. A new one is opened What is printed on that page will de pend largely on the attitude we adopt"
 He counselled calmness and sourage and asserted the interests of the coun- try must come first.
 'I have seen parties destroyed by personal resentments," continued the former premier. 'I have seen parties rendered impOtent by personal resent ments. l have seen their judgment deflected, and for that reason they are not making the contribution they ought to the well-being of the people for whose prosperity we are deeply concerned. We will not make that mistake, whatever happens. We will consider the land to which we are deeply attached first. Its interests must be deepest in our hearts; it's in terests must be highest in our con cern. Great Britain first, any party even our own, second, and even last (Continued on Page Two)
