A combination of causes led to these
deficits, including increasing costs of
operation brought on by the war, jit-
ney competition and burdensome taxes,
including the gross receipts tax which
New Jersey legislators were patted on
the back for %enacting a few years ago.
These taxes amounted to $10,682.71
in 1917, and had grown to $13,020.74 in
1921, gradually increasing each year.
The coming summer the company
would be facing an expenditure Of
about 100000 for rebuilding and re-
pairing its tracks and making the i'm
provements authorized in the high
ways in which tracks are located.
Most Of the trolley franchises granted
in previous years provided that
the operating companies should re-
build, repair, and keep in order the
track road bed, and for a certain dis
lance each side of the tracks, so that
when it is decided to lay a street in
concrete or other permanent material,
the companies are required to build
their share of the highway. In many
cities trolley companies have been
forced to keep in condition the streets
oye which their jitney competitors
drove practically free.
The trolley companies have had
hard shedding of late years.

LAW TO PREVENT RENT GOUGING

The New Jersey Senate has passed
a radical measure intended to prevent
rental extortion by landlords; it gives
a tenant standing in court to question
the reasonableness of an increase of
thirty-five per cent or more in rent in
side of three years, and is designed to
prevent gouging.
In 1920 a law was enacted to protect
tenants occupying houses and paying
rental from month to month, without a
lease. 1t was charged that many land
lords would raise rents without notice
and that tenants who could not obtain
other houses were forced to meet the
demands. The law provides that in
such cases the landlord must give
three months notice, on the day on
which the monthly rent is due, Of an
increase in rent to be paid at the ex-
piration of that time: since the enact
ment of the law, tenants who pay rent
as agreed cannot be suddenly dispos-
sessed of their homes.

The Telephone Pole is a fruitful tree.

AuC 1ClCpuOuC OlC Is d IulCIuI lICC.
On its angular branches are bright crystal apples,
and the wires they bear aloft are the pathways of the
worlds conversation. They tell of the birth of a baby
across the street or of the death of a monarch half way
around the world.
The stately trunks of cedar and chestnut stretch
from farm and town and suburb to the larger cities
where the burden of wires is too great for poles, and
the lines are underground.
To carry all of the telephone wires of a great city
overhead would be out of the question. To put all
wires underground in the less densely populated places
would be just as impracticable, for it would make the
cost of the service prohibitive.
Ideal telephone service should give to every sub
Scriber, whether in city, town or country, quick COM
munication to near or distant points in the most eco
nomical manner.
1t is such an ideal that the men and women of the
Bell Telephone System have constantly in view. Some
thing it be developed in Sacramento or
Kalamazoo-is Immediately available to every other
town in the Bell System where it may be introduced
to advantage.

hotels then were the Brighton, Illi-

opposition was manifested toward the

did, rates inexcusably high even from

his resolution in the senate to inquire
whether any of the senators had a
pecuniary interest in what they are
voting for. it stirred up some indigna-
tion. If there has been any impro-
priety why Of course the senators
have not been aware of it. Long years
Of tariff legislation have destroyed
any delicate scnsitiveness on that sub
jcct. The protective system being
frankly one Of logrolling duties so as
to put money in various favored pocH-
cts, why should a senator hesitate
simply because he finds some Of it
going into his own? That anybody
should be squcamish about it came
evidently as a great surprise to the
sheep-raising senators. To them in
their innocence it seemed that the
fact that they stood to gain by higher
duties on wool simply showed that
they were skilled experts in advising
what the duties should be. II they
were satisfied, from the accounts of
their own flocks. that 33 cents a
pound would be profitable, the argu-
ment was strong that other growers
would also make money. What could
there be wrong about that? The idea
that some fastidious persons might
blame him was so startling to Senator
Gooding Of Idaho that he nearly re-
signed on the spot.

is an economist or statesman in Eu-

has been an unconsciOnable amount

reparations-the French and British
governments humbugging their cleo
tors by making them believe that
Germany could be made to pay for the
war and permitting the ~ruel truth
that these sums will never be obtained
to sink into the public mind gradually.
The process in Great Britain is about

that the full reparations can be OBJ

pie, and nominally by the govern
