! opportunity afforded by Senator Btnghams request for aid ant thought it fine thing to be able te
 have representative so closely identified with tariff tinkering. Most assuredly it was worth the money it cost.
 All of which. of course, does not eliminate the current economic re- liglon in Nutmegia that tariffs of substance on manufactured products are necessary for the benefit and welfare of the state. The use of Mir. Eyanson as Senator Blngham's aid Was merely poor tactics, No one seems to have forcseen that the method when discovered would go q long way to defeat it's own ends. The effect upon the Senate cannot be fav- orabIe, The good to ensue probably will be that it won't occur again. The legitimate way IS to give evi dence before a committee and then go home.

JAP PAN PRESS RATE
 REDUCTION PASSED
Native Papers EIated Over
 Chance to Use More News :.

Tokio, Oct. 19 UP)-Announce ment by the cable and radio com, panies Of q reduction in the de, ferred press rate between the Unit. ed States and Japan 10 nine cents. American currency per word, was received with enthusiasm today bv the Japanese press. The new rate will become effective October q.
 Inauguration of the new rate is considered by Japanese newspa pers of outstanding importance, so far as news to and from the United States IS concerned. l. was pointed out that such rate will enable the Japanese press 10 publish in greater volume important news from the h'ted States, particularly president tlal addresses, the text of notes and the detail of outstanding news events. Public interest in American news has always been intense but o"lng to the high press rates here tofore prevailing, the Japanese press has found the cost of transmitting details of the news prohibitive.
 It is expected also that the lower rate will greatly increase the vol ulne of news of Japan Transmitted to the United States.

\ QUICKLY ENDED STRIKE

The strike Of oil truck drivers in New York came to a quick end when numerous other unions, who were expected to walk out in sym pathy, preferred to remain at work. As strikes go, this was quite q flash in the pan.
 One reads, however, that because musicians, stage hands and other theatrical workers are having run- in with certain large theatrical producer in Philadelphia, the en- ploycs Of this producer in Chicago have agreed, most reluctantly, to go on strike in Chicago.
 That's q good way to WOO un- necessary trouble; but then, 1t is their business.
