Such possibility would seem out of the question at this time. The fact that France will probably refuse to attend the Genoa conference unless she is assured that Germany and Russia will not be allowed to take part in the discussions without first agreeing to the conditions men, toned in the Cannes resolution passed at the time the invitations to the Genoa conference were agreed upon, makes it appear plain that France would like to have the United States impose conditions also before she agrees to be represented at Genoa. France, as well as other nations, would like to stand on the same foot ing as the United States in regard to the Genoa conference, but it is most likely that she will be forced by her own situation to participate in the discussions there no matter what the United States may do.
 It is certain that little practical good can come from the conference at Genoa, whether the United States at tends or not, unless the consideration of world matters is taken up with the thought of peace uppermost instead of the atmosphere of doing nothing that will not have the probability of war in Europe for its major theme.

TELEPHONES BEING
 USED EXTENSIVELY
New Britain Now Has 6535
 Instruments in Use

A net gain of 9,633 telephones in the state during the year ended De cember 31, 1921, making 1S6,057 the total number of telephones in Connec- ticut on that date, reflects a Talriy healthy demand for telephone serv- ice, despite the sharp recession which afflicted business during the early months of the year. Indications fore cast a further substantial develop ment during the current year.
 Of the five districts into which the state is divided by the Telephone company, to facilitate its business, the Hartford district with an increase of 3,4O3 telephones shows a larger net gain than any other. The New Haven district with gain of 2,534 is next in line; Bridgeport district with 1854 is third; New London district with 1869 ranks fourth, and the Waterbury district with 773 is fifth in line.
 There are 3O.S71 telephones in use in New Haven. gain of 1,496 during the year. Hartford has a total of 29,776 telephones, a gain of 1881; Bridgeport has 329 more telephones than year ago and a total of 19,3S6; New London has 6,460 telephones, which is but 79 more thana year ago. while Waterbury has 10,9S3 in all, this being 33S better than on Decem- Der 31, 1920.
 An interesting study of how the business inactivity. affected certain localities in the state is furnished by the figures on the years telephone de- velopment. Bridgeport, for instance, does not equal in it's increase, the gain in Norwalk, and Stamford's gain was more than fifty per cent greater than that of Bridgeport.

MORE LIGHT

The especially satisfactory feature of the discussion of the salary com mittee last evening was the discussion itself. The fact that 1t was heated does not take away from the beneficial re- suits that were bound to come from a fuller investigation and, it would seem, from d deeper appreciation of what a general cut in salaries would mean, not only to the individuals in volved, but to the people of the city, who, it is believed, would be willing to forego the saving of one-third of a mill in taxes In order that the city affairs might be conducted with at least as great efficiency as that which now obtains.
 In the decision arrived at by the committee there may be seen the ad- vantage of the change in viewpoint stances may bring. It is believed that the decision of the committee not to recommend a general cut, and to rec ognize the just value of the work of loyal city employees, Is a wise and just decision and that it will be ac- knowledged as such by the people after full knowledge of the facts.
 The committee deserves credit, also --or those members whom the "cap hts' deserve credit-for not being afraid to alter its opinion in the light of new facts. That is the sort of thing real men are glad to do.

COMMUNICATED
IN FAVOR OF VACCINATION

Editor of The Herald:
 First, may I reply to the Citizen" who is so opposed to vaccination. If the aforementioned party actually had smallpox then his Vaccination two years previous never worked, for a successful vaccination produces inn munity for period of from a1Cen to ten years. Surely, good citiZeh, you did not expect a vaccination which did not work to protect you from smallpox!
 Plainly our friend does not under stand the true nature or mission of vaccination. I am not physician, I am teacher who held position in a college where smallpox broke out, and where two hundred board- ing students were exposed to the loathsome disease. Hence I feel qualified to speak of both smallpox and vaccination. Two extremely bad cases were discovered, one of the vic tims being a teacher and dear friend of mine. Having been vaccinated my self at the beginning of the school year, l had no fear of the disease and cared for the teacher until she was able to secure nurse who wasn't afraid of the case. The two smallpox victims had always fought vaccination just as friend Citizen is urging the parents of this city to do, but they both repented bitterly having ignor- antly exposed themselves to such suf- fering and disfiguremant.
 Most interesting of all were the marvellous results obtained from vac cinatng the rest of the students. Not only the entire epidemic was checked but five students, who showed suspici- ous symptoms of coming down with the disease, were vaccinated and the doctors watched the vaccination fight the smallpox and conquer 1t. After q few days In each case the student was about again, with nothing but the temporary inconvenience of q sore arm. I am sure if the parents of this city could see a case of srlalIpo at it's height, they would welcome any protection from it.
 Do you realize, Herald reader, that vaccination has reduced fatality in smallpox from S7 per cent to per cent? Isn't that argument enough in itself? Besides, generations of vac cination are gradually bringing a much mider form of the disease, and will in time, through general use. stamp out the scourge. New Britain may never have cause to fear such an epidemic, which l sincerely trust will be the case but if vaccination should become compulsory, I trust the par ents will not feel it either foolish or

WASHINGTON-GENOA.

The Japanese declaration yesterday from the lips of Baron Shidehara, the Japanese Ambassador that his coun- try will respect tho territorial integ- rity of Russia and will observe the "open door" policy there, may be taken as an indication that Japan is quite ready to close the conference as soon as possible. There was an air of f1nality to the words spoken which had some of the atmosphere created by the actor who comes to the front of the stage and utters what he would like to be the final declaration of the play, then steps back waiting for the curtain and the applause.
 Incidentally 1t is to be noted that this statement of intention differs very little from one or two previous promises of Japan to respect the

 theory may be proved before the an
