 to be used in paving between the Connecticut Company's tracks. was answered today by George M. Cough lin Director of Public Works, who declared that the city, according to law, must stand for TO per cent of the expenses involved in this work. The remaining 30 per cent. is borne by the Connecticut company.
 Prior to this time, the trolley com pany has paid for all paving work between it's tracks, but recent legis- lative action brought about the change whereby cities must now stand the major portion of paving costs. The same ruling applies to bridges.
 Paving work of this nature will be carried out here this summer, and the c1ty's unemployed will be used to fur nlsh the labor. The following streets will be paved between the car tracks: State street. from Main street to Fair heId avenue; Fairfield avenue from Park avenue to State street: Broad street, from State street to Fairfield avenue; North Main street, from North avenue to Wentworth street; Stratford avenue, from East Main street to Waterville avenue; South Main street, from Gilbert street to Atlantic street.

Dr. Coon Vaccinated
 At Public Hearing

the children said that their parents told them 1t was all right to go ahead with the vaccination that af- ternoon."
 Both Dr. o'Conneu and Dr. Coon testified that the Health Depart ment's instruction to the physicians vaccinating the children had been to carefully respect every objection to vaccination. and that not only the was religiousl observed but the ob- jection of the child itself.
 Medical Examiner Garlick testified to his being called in to view the child after death, and to his offer of an autopsy on the body to determine the cause of death to satisfy the father who seemed to feel that vac- cination was the cause. He min- utely described the processes of this autopsy which was performed in the presence of several anti-vaccination- iSts.
 The conclusion reached after much medical testimony by, pr. Samuel Garlick, medical examiner and Dr. Horatio R. DeLuca, pathologdst and bacterio1ogist at St. Vincent's hospi- tai was that the child died. of bron- chia1 pneumonia with acute peritoni- tus as secondary cause.
 Although neither Dr. s. l.. Katzoff nor Patrick Sproviero who have been active as anti-vaccinatonists were present, the Medical Liberty League was represented by Miss Sarah Bou- dren and Mrs. Miller, both of whom sicians at the conclusion of the tes- tirnony.
 Coroner Phe1an will make his find ing in the case at a later date.

 Washington. Feb. 20-Uncle Sam's flat answer to those who charge him with failure to alleviate the physical and financial disabilities of his veteran fighters is that more than one million dollars day, including Sun day, is being expended by the Govern ment for the eX-service men and their dependents. Supporting this answer, Uncle Sam points to the 1922 budget estimate of expenditures to be made directly for the benefit of ex-warriors, which calls for half billion dollars.
 Colonel C.. R. Forbes; director of the United States Veterans Bureau, today outlined for International News Service the expenditures his bureau contemplated for the current year. for S51O, 1000, ,000.
 Training Work Continued.
 This sum will be divided, Colonel Forbes said, into seven composite training, the sum of s467.- 500, 0,000; for medical and hospital services, the sum of $64,6O0,O0o;- for payments on war risk term insur- ance. the sum of $81, TOO, 900; for U. s. life insurance, the sum of $5,7OO, 1000; for soldiers compensa- ton, the sum of S161, 100000; for re- troactive Government allowances on proven and extant claims, the sum of $2 2OO0, ,000 and for salaries and ex- penses, that is administration, the sum of ss1,5o0, ,000- These figures total Forbes deducts the s5,70O,000 to be paid in United States Government life insurance claims, on the ground that is a self-supporting branch of the activities.

Shanghai, Feb. 20-"President Sun Yat-Sen and his co-workers who founded the Chinese Republic have neevr had a chance of ruling China as republican State and showing what the progressive section of the nation could do in the work of mod ern government" Dr. Eugene Chen, secretary to the President of the Can ton government, told the International News Service, in discussing why the government of the south was fighting g for control of all China.
 Unless this fact is realized and deeply borne in mind, you-the friends of China in America-wiu see nothing but disorder and futility and incapac- ity in a phase of the nations life which, I assert, exceeds in promise ropean history.
 'HThe Republic. on it's cultural side, marks the beginning of a real renais- sance in China which might even moralS-the achievement of the great epoch in Europe covering the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries
 And as the west could not be what it is today if the Greek mind had not fed it, so Is there the promise of Chinese assimilation of the same cu1- tural food through the Republic as an American and, ultimately, as a Hell chic thought.

 We were an original mind, with civilization and culture of our own In the past we gave-we hardly ever public-we are receiving for the first time in our long recorded history. But" his thin. intelligent face light ing, i've. shall pay back in ample leader class in China ?'' I asked.

And this division is important. One section of it believes in the Chinese Republic: (a) as a de1iverance of the -ChEeSe people from the Manchu con- quest and a sa constitutional guaran- tee against the Manchu or other i'm strument which can secure the mod ernlzat1on of China in terms of West ern political and economic thought without injury to the foundation of the State as the historical product of Chinese cultural forces.
 "Tbe Northern Leaders"
 This section is meant when refer ence is made to the Southern lead ers The other and rival section of the leader class includes the elders Of the Mandarinate and the feudal chieftains of the Tuchunate. They are sometimes referred to as the Northern leaders,"
 What is the meaning of North and 'South'?''
 .The terms North and 'South','' said Mir. Chen, "-haxe a political, not a geographical, content Some of the most sinister leaders of the North, are Contonese, while some of the figures of the South are from a province like Chih1i, in which Pe- king 1tsen- is situated.
 'The terminology is explained by the race that the provinces at Or south Of the historic line of the Yangtsze, were the first tc declare for the Re public and are regarded generally as than those north of the line.
 South Afirms Necessity"
 Tn terms of political action, the central difference between these two secnons of the governing forces of China IS seen in their respective atti- tudes toward the parliament sys- tenn as an instrument of government.

ton and it's future prosperity assur- ed.
 ''The peak of agricultural produc- tion per capita of population was passed in 1898. Agricultural produc- tion almost kept pace with popula- ton increase for some little time after that date, but in the last de- cade it has steadily and ever more rapidly fallen.
 Probably this can be more con- cretely shown by the definite state ment that the cotton production 800 bales to less than 12,000,000 bales. Corn production reached it's peak decade ago and has remained practically stationary ever since. The 1921 average was 104, 100000 bushels, the same as it was in 1910. even worse if it had not been for the fact of the great war drive and the remarkable advance in the selling price of this cash crop.
 The combination, however, only forced it up temporarily, and it has dropped back almost to pre-war av- erage.'
 Dr. Ball declares that the larger area of fertile land in the country has been taken up and that the in crease in farm area in the future will be very slow. Production costs will be higher. he predicts.
 Statisticians in the Department of Agriculture have estimated that the population of the United States will be more than 220.00O,O00 at the close of the present century.

The vaccination of Dr. William H. Coon, Health Officer, by pr. John G. O'Connell, as a demonstration was the most dramatic feature of the pub lie hearing held this morning by Cor oner John T. Phelan on the death of Marie Jacqueline Casey who was all legged by her parents, to have died as a result of vaccination.
 Just how Marie Casey came to be vaccinated was left a question: Her father. John J. Casey of 26O Bond street, testified that when told vaccin- ation was to be required of school children he had written two notes to the teachers of his children requesting that they not be vaccinated because they were in good health and as his wife was not we'll, and he did not wish to have them i'll for her to take care of at that time. He declared that never in any way had he given per- mission that the children be vac cinated.
 Dr. O'Conne11 ,who vaccinated the children at Summerffe1d school, told of such a note being shown him in the morning and as a result the child was not vaccinated. Later in the after noon, he said, when Ee was vaccin- ating an upper room of the school: two children were brought to him from the lower grade and he was told that their parents had objected to their being vaccinated in the morning but had changed their minds and wanted it done now.
 Dr. Coon supplied the note from the father and a second note signed by the teacher of the room in which the child was a pupil, saying that

 That program forms the best so- lution of the agrarian ills of the country if the consensus of farmers views counts for anything.
 Farmers throughout the United States are talking of bursting sur p1uses and products. The excess in foodstuffs held, however, is due to the fact that there is no market de- mand, officials at the United States Department of Agriculture asserted yesterday.
 The trouble is that there is under consumption, they say. Claim is made by them that there ds not enough food in the world today to provide for normal consumption.
 In the fifty years following the Civil War, according to best statistics available, the United States farmer increased cotton production five times, wheat production four times happened while the population of the only increased two and times.
 ''No wonder" says Dr E.. D.
