 The New Haven law was attempt ed in the interest and safety of the public. But the state law provides that the P. U. C. shall supervise the method of operating trolley cars local ordinances to the contrary notwithstanding.
 It is because of the nature of th' state law that the trolley companies have the right to override loca preferences in so many instances In so far as street railway matter are concerned, city government need scarcely exist.

IAW-ABIDING ENGLAND
 AND THE U. S.

A tremendous decrease of crime in England in the last 50 years --- what a sentence to read In a news story, a sentence freighted with possibilities of comparison with conditions in our own country
 At a time when the best minds of the nation have been thinking spcaking and writing about the enormous increase in crime in the United States, comes a cable from Great Britain in which the home secretary was quoted as congrsatu- lating prison officials upon the few guests they were called upon to keep in their "gaols."
 The English record: In 1875 there were 10000 persons undergoing penal servitudc," in 1925 despite tho increase in population, there are only 1,60o. And only HOO young people undergoing correctional treatmcn
 The United States, leading the world in almost everything, gra- ciousIy steps aside to let the honors for law and order go to England
 What we need in this country arc English methods in combating crime. although that would spoil great deal of our established busl- ness of mistaking legal technlcall' ties for justice.

DROPPING THE POKER IN NICARAGUA

Withdrawal of the [, S marines from Nicaragua after 13 years Of American occupation Is sure to re- bound 10 the credit of the Coolidge administration, whether or not 1t came about through luck or de- sign. Doubtless We shall hear little reminiscence in connection there with when such things are cata- logued for the benefit Of the for getful voter,
 It was Gen. Smedley Butler who was at the head of the first detach- ment of marines which in 1912 "cleaned up" the turbulent country after succession of revolutions. And by the way, he mopped up bet ter at that time than he has done in Philadelphia.
 It was under the aegis of the late Secretary Knox during the Taft ad- ministration that this species of "dollar diplomacy" = as advertised - started. When Woodrow Wilson came into power and William J. Bryan became secretary of state q quick end to the occupation was ex- pected, especially as MT. Bryan had been denouncing dollar diplomacy"
 But the marines remained during the Bryan regime regardless. Mr. Bryan negotiated a treaty with Nicaragua - the government or which was propped up by American machine guns which had clause for an American protectorate, such as exists over Cuba. and nothing but criticisms by the watchful Sen ate stopped the plan.
 The World War came on and Nicaragua and the marines re-
 mained in the background. Wher
 Mir. Harding be c m president
 Secretary Hughes bethought Of the
 marines and made several attempts
 to bring them home, but the Nica'
 raguan government objected needing their protection against the
 party out of power. Last year. how
 ever, the party which had been ou of power won an election and go in mower. It made no objections t' the contemplated departure, ah' after due cogitation in Washington . and the training of native solo1er inc marines were ordered home . But if the Nicaraguan govern ment fails to protect foreigners an norhsps some American invest - ments, there might be need TO
 some more assistance by marine de . tacbments, Revolutions in Centra America having become less fash l ionab,e in late years perhaps ther will be no need for a recrudosoero . of dollar diplomacy for awhile.
