Retirement Adjustments Necessary.
We have not accepted the principle of pensions
In industry, because We believe that the logical
and moral method Is to enable the worker to
achieve his own independence. However we may
be persuaded in the end, that pensions are
advisable.
Assuring the worker support or independence
in old age has a double bearing on the matter
of efficiency. First, to obtain the goal he must
give the company efficient service. Secondly,

LEVITT CASE TO BE ARGUED IN HARTFORD

proceed against the commissioners. Attorney General Benjamin ". AL | ling on the other hand contends that the mandatory provisions of the statute are only applicable when he
 has found. after an investigation,
 that sufficient facts exist 10 enable
 him 10 present a complaint which
 will justify him in asking for the removal of one or more commission
 CTS upon the grounds provided by statute.
 The attorney general in his ap- peal claims a number of errors in Judge Jennings rulings and find ings and also attacks the constitu- tionality of Section 3614 of the gen. eral statutes, in that it provides for an unlawful interference with the powers and duties of the office of the attorney general.
 A basis of the complaint of Pro- lessor Levitt against the public util- Ities commissioners is that they have not removed single grade crossing under the provisions of Section 37lD 1 past five years. He points out that the average cost of removing d grade crossing is S15000O and hence the removal of 5 grade crossings would cost the railroad s?,700,000. Then he produced the reports of the re- 1 ports of the public utilities commis- ! sion to show that the net earnings, clear prift of the railroads in Con-
 necticut, 1924 to 1928 inclusive, are i s42c83,669a5.
 i Attorney General filling in his re- ! turn to Prof. LeVitt's application for 1 the writ said:
 1 Tt is the claim of the petitioners that in considering the removal Of one grade crossing for every 50 miles or track each year no consideration should be given 10 the removals which have been made upon applica- 1 tion by either towns, cities or bor- ! oughs, or the highway commissioner. i The attorney general does not agree with this construction Of the l statutes, his opinion being that the | number designated are the maxi mum removals to be required in any one year, irrespective Of how the re- moval takes place.
 However, if the claim Of the pe- i tition is sound. the fact that money 1 had been expended for the purpose l Of removal Of grade crossings would i necessarily have 10 be conHdered by
 the commission in their investigation
 as 70 the financial condition of the l company and the determination Of
 whether or not such financial con-
 dition would warrant additional ex- ! pendtiures for this purpose.
 Tt might be sufficient to say that the commission, having taken into ! consideration all the factors enum- erated. and having devoted the time and study which they have to the subject, would be sufficient an-
 swer to any claim Of material neg
 lect of duty on their part.
 "An exercise of discretion on the
 part Of the commission, based upon the consideration Of all these facts.
 shows that their discretion has not been abused nor that they have acted in any illegal or improper manner in reaching whatever conclusion they may have come to- but we do not
 wish 10 base our action in this case upon such q claim
