 New Britain Routes.

Bridgeport and Waterbury with list of routes in the cities of New Britain and Mcriden. were put in eri- dence. having previously been fur nished to the corporation counsel for the four largest cities.
 Buckland's Statement
 Edward G. Buckland, vice. president and general counsel of the New Ha- ven road made a statement as to tho legal status of the Connectsut conn pany this having to do with the court decree of October 17, 1914, which re- auires the New Haven road 10 trans fer its entire capital stock to trustees. The latter under the federal court de- cree, are required to "exercise the DOW CTS so as to assure for the Connccti- cut Co. a management solely in the interest of said company without re- gard to the interest of the New Ha- ven company or any other corporation or person but with due regard to the public interest"
 MT. Buckland said that when the stock was transferred the New fla ven's investment in the Connecticut Co. was 40,000,000 of stock and s2.- 175,000 of notes. The stock had been received in return for a dead of the property to the Connecticut Co. on February eS, 1910. The notes repre- SC mated cash actually advanced to the Connecticut Co. for additions and bet terments. Prior to the decree the Connecticut Co. had paid the interest upon its indebtedness and for the pre- yious three years had dividends of si,5o0,00o upon its stock. Other div idends paid were s40o,00O in 1915, s600,0O0 in 1916 the fiscal year being from June to June and ss00,009 for 1918 from June to December. No div idends have been paid since then. Be. tween July 15, 1917 and June 20. 1921 the New Haven Co. advanced cash to the Connecticut Co. of si,- 56S,9l6.
 Mir. Buckland said that between these dates the Connecticut Co. had earned enough so that it could have paid the amount thus advanced by the New Haven. but apparently the trus- tees under the pressure for additional capacity and service elected 10 use the Connecticut company's income as re- quired by the decree solely in the in- tercst of tho Connecticut Co. and Of tho public and without regard to the interest of the New Haven road.
 The company's interest in the Con- nccticut Co, NIT. Buckland said was si,5GS,9i6. JTe said that in terms of six per cent the New Haven has con- tributed s2,400,00o year for the last ten years, total Of ss4,o0O,000, and has received back si,2oo,ooO. He said that the New Haven protests against A confscstory policy and asks that tho Connecticut Co. be accorded at right to earn if it can a fair return upon the value of It's property devoted Co the service Of the public.

COOLIDGE STANDS BY
HARDING COURT PLAN

Washington, d. Proposals for
American adherence to the world
court contingent upon its disassocia,
ton from the League of Nations were
spurned by President Coolidge in his
Memorial day address at Arlington az
unworthy Of American principles and
traditions.
"If we receive anything we must
surrender something" said the presi-
dent, speaking of the world court and
the question of American membership
In it. I'VE may as we'll face the Ques-
ton candidly and If we are willing to
assume these new duties in exchange
for the benefits which would accrue to
US, let us say SO. II we are not will
ing, let as say that. We can accomp-
lish nothing by taking a doubtful or
ambiguous position"
He renewed his Endorsement Of the
original Harding-Hughes world court
plan and said he would not oppose
other reservations. but. at the same
time asserted "any material changes
which would not probably receive the
consent Of the many other nations
would be impracticable."
