The WALL STREET JOURNAL
Ammunition,

NEW YORK, April 10.-Further
decrease in employment in Detroit
and another falling in car loadings
which showed shrinkage Of 2S,726 in
the week ended March 29 as COM
pared with the similar period in 1928
furnished additional bearish ammu-
milton and stocks continued heavy
/ in the early dealings. Woolworth
made a new low on the move at
299A, and Studebaker at 90S while
other active industrials were under
pressure.
Although President Coclidge's VIC
tories in midwestern primaries ap-
parently eliminated Johnson as a
serious contender for the Republican
nomination, Wall Street was too busy
watching for immediate trade indi-
cations TO take this development into
consideration.
Noon Hour
Renewed pressure at midday drove
various active industrials to new lows
on the move. American Wool. 67k;
Fisher Body, 206; Coco-Cola, 65A.
However, a few strong spots per
.
weakness of the general market.
American Water Works common
reached a new high for the year at
81, while Texas & Pacific advanced
nearly 2 points to 80 on heavy sales.
Strength in Texas & Pacific is due to
the belief that the I. c. c. win soon
announce its formal approval Of the
roads reorganization.
Second Hour
Stocks showed a slightly steadier
tone late in the morning after new
lows on the movement had been
reached in the first hour IN various
industrials, including Studebaker at
S97san American Can at 99%. This
price compared with February high
Of 122K A house that does a great
deal Of business for large profession
ais was a heavy seller Of Can.
Fourth Hour
Impetus was given to the downward
swing during the fourth hour by the
publication Of the March untitled ton
mage statement Of the United States
Steel Corporation setting forth shrink
age Of 130, 600 tons in forward orders.
This news brought further selling into
steel common, which broke TO new
low for the year at 96i5. carrying
with it most of the other leading in
dustrials.
American Sugar at ASA reached
the lowest price since it's incorpora-
ton. The theory has been that the
refining company would benefit but
the lowest level American Sugar COM
mon has ever seen does not seem to
substantiate this belief.

cent. Twenty average rails averaged

NUMBER OF ARRESTS

The fact that the arrests by the
 police for the month of February will probably double the number made in January does not indicate that the
 police were more active this month
 than last. Already, with the month not half gone there have been 166 arrests. while the total number for January was ITS. The activity of the police has been constant.
 Let it be understood that most of these arrests were for wrong doing not of a serious nature. There is no intention to intimate that New Brit ain is becoming a more wicked city. Such is not the case. The situation is that there are far more minor of lenses committed than formerly-if we may be allowed to include drunk enness and violation of the liquor law an offense of less importance than commission of murder. for instance.
 But the situation causes great dis tress among those intimately associat- cd with the management Of the city affairs-those who want to have this city free from any sort of disturbance Why do people offend against the laws. and why does the number of such offenders increase constantly?
 There is a low rumbling of unrest and dsquiet Students of social con- ditions are deep in thought over tho problem. Those not already concerned with it, whether occupying official po- sitions or not. may spend time wisely in pondering over the matter in con sulting the police and obtaining their opinion--for the policemen are in a practical position to know the under current that prevails, its effects seen in the court records.
 This is a subject upon which much ] thought might well be given by or- ganlzations in this city devoted hon- i cstly to getting at the roots of civic evils. Remove the cause for this un- rest, this discontont and the bad re- suits will not come.

FRENCH REFRESHING .BAVARIAN OUTBREAK
More Disturbances in the Small
 Towns Add to Death Toll
By The Associated Press

ny iHt Aeb9tlultu 1ltSh
 Speyer, Bavarian Palatinatc, Feb 1.-The French military authorities in the Bavarian Palatinate announced today that they had taken the neces- sary measures of repression to meet the situation arising from the dis orders which broke out yesterday al Pirmasens, where iG persons arc known to have ben killed and 17 are missing as a result of n rising against the separatists' regime.
 Reports from other quarters show six separatists killed in q similar rising at Baducrhhoim, while fears are eN- pressed that general uprising against the scparatists might break out to- day).
 The military are proceeding to make numerous arrests in pirmascns, kaiscrslautcn and Swcibrucken. The prisoners are being taken 10 Duesscl- dorT, where they will be tried.
 Adyices from various parts of the Pantinate reported all quiet this morning.

| popularity and regardless of any hints,
 if any there have been. of lack of l personal honesty.
 For the second time the power of
 the coalition between the insurgent republicans and the democrats has been shown. There is more significance in the present strength than appeared even, when il was previously noted. The resolution calling for Denbys dis | missal was a matter in which the president was distinctly and personal ly interested. Its passage placed him in an embarrassing position politically. Whatever he did-and it will be re- membered that he refused to &C., auiesce in the preamble which was so harmful to Denby's cause-he would be criticized. Were it not for the con- stant assertion of President Coolidge's admirers that his habit of waiting before taking action indicates strength oI puFpOSt, Oilt NOulu Dt lhSliitd to believe with the presidents detrae- tors that this habit of slow action comes from hesitancy, from inability to make up his own mind, rather than from the more admirable characteris- tic.
 Just one thing is quite certain. Whereas there is a probability that the second thoughts of the people con- corning William McAdoo, quickly brought into the scandal by political opponents, will react to his advantage, it is more than probable that the matter of President Coolidge's hand ling of the case of Denby will lessen his prestige. A few days ago he was acknowledged by his supporters to be the logical. perhaps the only possible candidate for the republican nomina- ton. Today, even those supporters of the president provided they think l seriously of the welfare of the party. i have not "an eye single" to him. Sur repttiously they are casting about just in case" don't you know.

THE TAX RATE

Now that the pruning committed | has done it's duty as it saw such duty
 in the light Of tho cry for lower taxes
 it looks as though the rate of 22 mills
 will be arranged for which is Is mills less than our present rate, the latter having included dchency tax Of just the amount by which it is planned 10 reduce the rate In other words, since WIG will not have to provide for a deficiency this year, the expense Of running the city will be practically the same as 1t was last ycdr---and this. incidentally is going some" When trolley companies and others, trying 10 justify increases, say innocently and with that sweet baby gaze which is So tantalizing in the eyes Of anyone except the baby "Why. Of course you must pay for transportation or any other article. "because everything's going up, you know" people Of New Britain may smile swectIy and make graceful gesture in the direction of cur tax rate, with the convincing re- ply. Not everything is going up? the cost of running our city's isn't for in- stance"
 Perhaps half a mill would have to be added to this rate ol 22 mills were it not for the plan to pay for the re- frigersting plant at tho municipal ab- sttoir and the new Bnlyidere re sta- ton out Of the proceeds of an issue Of bonds. which. according to the opinion of the mayor and the chair man Of the board Of finance and tax alton is the proper way to pay for such improvements.
 The practical result pf the work of the board and the pruning committee is that budget will be presented to the common council and to the city meeting board which will provide. proba blv, Tor q tax rate which will Tighten a bi the burden of taxation here. And. with the slight increase in the grand list that may come, more money will be available. none Of it being due to pay for the dead horse of q previous defency.

MACDONtLD'S SPEECH

Prime Minister Macdonald, of Eng
 land, made a good impression at this l first official public appearance as the
 head of the government, The leader
 Of the minority party, he said plainly
 that he would expect the support Of ! the Liberals Of tho Labor party fol- lowed a policy approved by the Liber- als. In other words he claimed the right to expect that there would be
 no opposition to a plan merely be-
 cause it was presented under the ad-
 ministration of the Rbor party.
 France. Of course, likes his atti- tude toward that country, and his evi-
 dent desire to make more friendly the
 relations between the two nations. stanley Baldwin has signiied his in- tention not to stand in the way Of tho Premier to success for the eoun- try.
 An interesting statement Of the new
 Prime Minister was 10 the effect that while attempt has been made in Eng land to get capital and labor together, such attempts having failed always, he intended to succeed.
 And it is in this aspect of this ad- dress that an interesting thought ap- pears. IL is generally admitted that the younger capitalists Of this country have a deeper appreciation Of the complaints of labor than had their predecessors. In other words there is a tendency here, and probably in Eng land as well, for the employers Of labor to take step in the direction Of better understanding of labor. Now. in England, the new Prime Min ister. leader Of the Labor party, has shown that the awful things predicted i for England if Labor assumed control will not come to pass at least with . Prime Minister MacDonald's eneour- agemcnt. Labor there, in other words, is not as radical as it has been paint i !, 1, and Labor has taken step toward . a better understanding of capital. Thus the two are approaching nearer 10 each other. When they meet, shake hand. and talk things over. without prejudice. then will come q situation which will pretty nearly approach the millennium.

NANnIRIIp.S TAI.K

When a man passes on 10 the peo- pie gossip which. being pinned down. he admits IS gossip, much that he has to say may be disrcgarded ut- teriy. But any man inclined on occa- sion to "tell all he knows is finely to drop Q remark that needs looking into.
 And because Prank 4. Nsnderlip, former president O. g great bank and al present a well known man. did let one or thos. significant phrases creep into his other talk about tbe gossip of Washington. il becomes important to consider that one statement.
 When former Secretary of the In- terior Fall was excused from further examination. after the general public had made up ifs mind about him. the reason was supposed to b. that a fur- ther questioning might protect him if court proceedings were brought against him later Noz. however, Van deriip has made the assertion, accord ing 10 reports. that Fall was excused because any further questioning might lead to trouble for u49se in high nlaces-thst Fall Fas excused Becausr be was ready to ''peaeB" on others who could not stand investigation.
 This is charge that should be in- Yestigated. often in criminal matters one guilty person by turning states .,idenco. clears ID whole vile com spirsey. Better far to run the risk
