Autos Keeping Pace
With Phones in Conn,

Hartford Sept. 21-Almost every
family in Connecticut that has a
telephone has also an automobile or
motorcycle. On the first Of August,
there we're 2S7324 motor Vehicles
registered in the state motor vehi-
Gle department, while the number OF
telephone in use in the state reached
a total of 244.27s.
The number of telephones IN a
state is a good index OF the number
of motor vehicles In that state, ac-
cording to the results of study
made by the National Automobile
Chamber Of Commerce. In more
technical words, there is high cor
relation between telephone and au-
tomobile use by states The tele-
phone and motor vehicle totals are
close in all of the other New Eng
land states, except Massachusetts,
the exception being largely due per-
haps to the presence of Boston, with
extraordinary demand for telephones
and less for automobiles.
Motor vehicles sold at a list price
Of $500 or less were responsible for
1S9,S07 Of the PATTI registrations
in Connecticut last year, as nearly as
can be approximated. Cars which
sold for prices between $500 and
$4,000 constituted 1859 more of
the registrations and the remaining
5,S96 registrations were of cars
which cost more than s2.5oo each.
OF the first classification. that is the
cars that sold for less than $500,
los,is7 were listed at prices under
$500, The northeastern states show

BERLIN NOT ALARMED.
Tariff War Expected to Hurt Paris

BY the Associated Press,
BERLIN, January 12.-No alarm is

The immediate loss OF, such benefits
to France as the preferential treat
ment accorded her under the treaty
and the abolition of customs on the
Alasatian continge ents, of which metal
lurgical and textile products consti-
tute heavy percentage, is viewed as
serious blow to France. In the
opinion of the Tageblatt, Germany
fronted with maximum or still higher
French tariffs. which might be bear
able. as the volume of German ex-
ports already has rcceded heavily be-
cause of proh!bitive tolls and now Is
almost wholly confined TO such products
as France Is obliged to procure in Ger

During tho first nine months of
1924 German exports to France were
estimated at 72,200 600 marks, or is
per cent of Germany's total exports
Imports from France and Alsace were
valued at $500. 900 marks, or slight
ly less than s per cent of the total
