May Giue Beer to
Thirsty Germans

German beer.
Consul Cornelius Ferris, at Stet-
tin, Germany, suggesting Germany
as a market for the American
grown hops, reported to the Com
merce Department today that
shortage of fertilizer in Germany
had reduced the Bavarian and
bohemian crops below the German
requirements.

NEW BRTTAIN'S STAKE IN THE NEW HAVEN

AS a shipper of freight over the New Haven railroad, New Britain stands as high, or higher, than any city in Connecticut of its size, and considerably higher than most cities. Railroad officials will admit that without hesitation.
 It was stated recently that the number of yard engines required to shunt freight cars in New Britain are more than twice the number required in the average city of it's size. In fact, there are as many yard engines needed here as in many cities in New England several times the population of New Brit ain.
 As producer Of freight ship ments, New Britain is a very i'm portant spoke in the New Haven wheel of prosperity. And the more freight the railroad picks up" 1T New Britain the better we like II

wich returns came along Fat the last minute" after every other town had reported and had gone to bed.
 The use of voting machines is not common the country over. They are not liked throughout most of our great domain. They are in par tlcular disfavor throughout por- tions of the west where voters claim they promote party voting and are too complicated. Com plaints along this score are also common where they are in use throughout portions of the east. They also cost more money than lead pencils, which is a serious matter in some economical com munitles. In some of the western states the voting doesn't end until 10 and II o'clock Connecticut time, and then the election officials have to tabulate from Australian bal lots. They do well to get through by morning, eastern time. That is why the returns from the far west usually are so slow.

 Here is how the system is ex- pected to work out: A rich north erncr. looking for a state of cli- matte marvel in which to settle down, will gaze upon Florida and like 1t. He will discover that by making his legal residence there his heirs will be exempt from pay ing inheritance taxes when he dies, and he will not need to pay state Income taxes there during his life time. Of course, there are plenty of other states without state income taxes but the result of Florida's voting on this amendment is that it Is forbidden by the state constl- tuition ever in the future to levy such taxes.

OCCIDENTAL SHIPPING RETAINS LEADERSHIP

Ii used to be said that inaSmuch as Oriental shipping could operate nore economically than shipping owned by the white races that eventually Oriental ships, especially Japanese vessels. would drive the others off many of the important trade routes> of the world, especial Iy the Pacific.
 But since the war Japanese ship ming has been steadily declining in comparison with shipping operated bv American. British, French and Italian concerns. So critical has the situation become, from the Japan ose standpoint, that heads of their shioptng firms are appealing to their government for subsidies. claiming 1t is the only way for Japanese vessels to survive.
 It costs American and British firms more to operate ships thar ever before, but the increased cos'' apparently have been largely a5 sorbed by operating larger ships thus increasing the ratio of tonnag' to each member of the crews,
 Most bugaboos, given sufhclen time, disappear by their own weigh in the gucksand of tme.
