A FEARFUL TORNADO IN THE, WEST

Just as the public got through reading Of the disaster in Tokio' where q fire burned 5000 houses and made 2o.ooO homeless, and the mine horror in West Virginia, the first page today gives details of what will probably go down in history as one of the worst storms in the mid de west, resulting in a high total Of fatalities and casualties.
 The term Kansas cyclone" is Q byword meaning the most terrible of such visitations by nature; but such tornadoes do not recognize boundary lines and there is just as much need for storm cellars in other western states as in Kansas.
 The tornado of yesterday after noon swept a slice of Missouri southern Illinois and southern h. diana before it spent it's fury. This Is distance between 800 and 400 miles, A storm that can transform property into wrcchage over such an expanse of territory can only oc- eur in the middle western prairie states, where there arc few hills and no forests to act as windbrcaks and protect defensoIcss humanity.

ing street; but at present most pedestrians when they see an au- tomobilc approaching exercise com mendable caution and prefer to wait until the machine passes rather than take chance of getting tam glcd up under 1t, As result. when many autoists see pedestrian waiting at a crossing they don't take his desire to cross very seriously. although they would be perfectly willing 10 slow down sufficiently to permit the pedestrian to get across if they were sure he intended to attempt 1t before the automobile reYchcd the corner
 It is entirely n matter of cust om. Adoption of a system of holding up the hand before attempting to cross an outlying street appears to have much 10 commend it; at least, the august traffic experts who met in Washington, who went into the sub ject from every standpoint. came to this conclusion and considered 1t as reasonable method for so'ving one of the most pressing traffic prob l lems.

COMMON COL NCIL AND A CLAIMS COMMISSION

The promptnoss with which the Common Council acted in the dircc- ton of forming a claims commission, by unanimously referring the mat ter 10 the districts senators and rep resentatiycs in the General Assembly for. possible inclusion in the charter amendments. Is credit to that body. There is no telling from whence an idea worth considering may spring and the fact that this one happened to originate through these columns is no criterion of it's value, perhaps. but is more in the nature Of an effort 10 be of pubic service when an opportunity offers.
 The facts are apparently undisput- ed that the city is frequently em- barrassed in opposing claims through the present system of fore ing the corporation counsel virtually to try his case before the Common Council before defending the city in court, giving to claimants a distinct advantage and making it difficult for the city to maintain its rights. It Is believed a claims commission would operate to the benefit of the city and save money which ire quently is wrested from its grasp through the present system.
 Senator Edward r, Hall and his colleagues now have the opportuni- ty to give careful consideration of the merits of claims commission along the lines suggested by the Common Council and l. is to be hopcd that if the merits outweigh any demcrits that may be found the creation of a claims com mission be adled 10 the charter Anything that will save the city money naturally merits mctiCulouS attention.

CHANGING THF. LAW ON TRANSPORTATION

The Hartford Times takes issue with numerous newspapers through ont the state which have assumed that the bill providing for trolley bus lines anywhere in the state IS q scheme to holp the trolley com- pany. The Times docs not think go. and cites the law of 1921 which gave to the Connecticut company the privilege of starting bus lines between terminals without applying for permission to the Public Utih- ties Commission. Under the bill favorabIy reported in the state sen ate, the company would be placed on the same footing with other bus lines anywhere in the state and would be compelled to obtain such permission.
 On the face Of it. this does not seem like favoring the trolley com panies at the expense of the indc- pendent bus owners. Whatever rights the trolley company may be interpreted as having under the 1921 law, or which it may claim 10 shave under it, it has not ,stab- lished bus lines in this vicinity which did not proceed between ter minaIs of trolley lines although not necessarily along thc same routes The bill before the legislature was quoted i'll the press ss Sselylng be-
