THE TROLLEY DECISION.

By the decision of a majority of the members of the arbitration board named to consider the question of wage adjust ment between the employees and tha Connecticut company there is to be a cut of 5.45 per cent, a smaller reduction than had been intfmated might be made, but a larger one than the employees had anticipated.
 In view of the fact that those direct ly involved had agreed to abide by the decision of the board it is to be expect ed that the award will be accepted aSJ govern for the ensuing year. The same commission that considered the facts n the case a year ago acted this time and though 1t was 8 unanimous decision a year ago when a larger cut was made the representative of the men failed tc give his approval to this years award
 It Is a decision, however, which is based upon the reduction in the cost oi living and 1t means the reduction in the expenditures of the company in such a way as to hasten the day when there can be a reduction in the rate of fares charged by the company.
 How soon any cut win be justified de. pends upon the manner in which tht company Is able ta meet It's obligations It is to be remembered that the com. pany is still owing the state a consid erable amount in the way of back taxes It has been able to make Q substantial payment in the way of present taxe. and part of those for past years but | hasn't succeeded in wiping the latter out by a million or more Whatever re lief the company experiences in the way of curtailed expenses whether through reduced wages or otherwise. will serv, to reduce that indebtedness and advance the time when there can be no obstasi, in the way to reduction in the rat for service to the public
 The decision of the men and the com pany to submit their difference to ar bitration means the adjustment of tn matter in a much shorter time and with out the loss that might otherwise hav been encountered.

RADIO REGULATION.

If 1t is necessary experience is teach ing the importance of establishing con- trol over the radio before 1t gets to the point where regulation is bound to be much more difficult The situation .s much the same as 1t is with aeronau- tics. It is recognized that the time is coming when there must be restrictions for the good of all concerned. The longer the delay in acting upon the cer- tainty the greater Is going to be the task of establishing the restrictions when the time does come. With rules put into effect and control recognized at this time when the number involved is small 1t will be much easier to have them respected as the number increases
 The amount of confusion that can be caused by the unrestricted radio is ap- parent to any who have had experience with the wireless. It was evident what trouble was ahead during the days If the war from interference by amateurs and it was necessary to put a stop to 1t. Making use of the air waves is a bit different than most other forms of public service but there is no doubt but what it can be worked out so that a reasonable use of the radio for sending purposes can be provided without inter fering with commercial undertakings, while those who want to listen are not going to suffer any i'll effects but will on the other hand get the benefit from ending the confusion in the air which Is bound to increase as radio comes into greater use.
 As the twig is bent so grows the tree, and 1t is important that the radio should be inclined in the right direction from the very start.

with less help than could have been con templated in bygone days The traetrr Is making big gains each year but if Is not among the tractors entirely that the big gain in farm machinery has been made. There are the many oth-r types which facilitate the farmers work which figure in that gain in value from about a half billion dollars for farm ma chinery in 1890 to the three and q half billion valuation by the last census. For all but the tractor and whatever Is op- erated thereby the horse must continue to be a necessary factor in farming op- eration. He is still required although his field of activity Is much more re- stricted. Not until the auto takes his place in the fields and cultivated areas will his number show great reductions.
 Unfortunately however with the com ing of the tractor, as during the long period when machinery of other kinds have been in use on the farms, there ap- pears to be much the same disposition to leave the motor apparatus out in the fields subject to the clements quite the same as other types. This probably wouldn't prevail all winter but 1t in- dicates one way in which deterioration of farm machinery and therefore farm expense might easily be avoided.

ETTERs TO THE EDITOR
Written From Different standpoints.

Written From Different Standpoints.
 Mir. Editor: Dr. Roberts reply to my communication makes 1t quite clear that we have written from two entirely dif- ferent standpoints. I would not ask for additional space were 1t not for two questions propounded by Dr. Roberts. As one of these questions gives a wrong im- pression, and an answer to the other is available, kindly permit me to reply briefly.
 One question is: ''who has yet explain ed spirits on which he lays so much stress?" The word spirits does not ap- pear in my explanation. Each time the word Spirit was used, I referred to God.
 The other question is: "Who has ex- plained life?" Christian Scientists are quite satisfied with the definition and ex- plantations of life given by Christ Jesus. He said: "This is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God Jesus Christ, whom thou has sent" The man who conquered death certain ly understood life.
 That Christ Jesus expected his follow CTS to gain something of far greater value than human theories and doctrinal be- liefs from His teachings and demonstra-

We spent a most enjoyable hour, and while at times I wished might lead the conversation into other channels than gardening, I could see he was delighted to have found somebody to whom he could talk about his hobby.
