Noicing a protest against alleged discriminatory restrictions and de- manding rights equal to those of competitors, E. G. Buckland, chair man of the board Of directors Of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, struck out forei- bly, against the Panama canal act and other legislation which. he sail is interfering with the business of railroad lines at the annual banquet of the New Britain Traffic associa- ton last night at the Burritt hotel.
 MT. Buckland handled his subject without gloves. He outlined compre- hensively what he believed to be regulations inimiCat to the develop ment and progress of railroad lines. quoted statistics for the purpose of showing how railroads are hamper ed while competing transportation services are favored and asked that these competitors, water lines. truck lines, pipe lines. etc. be required to do business on the same level as the steam lines. He criticized the gov ernment for competing with rail roads directly or by subsidy.
 Discussing q subject on which public attention in Conencticut is focused, NIr. Buckiand protested against the agitation 10 force rail- roads to abolish grade crossings He pointed out that crossings are dan gerous because highway traffic has increased yet the railroads are ask ed to spend their funds to eliminate the menace although they are not responsible for the situation. The subject of his talk was "A Fair Field and No Favors."
 Railroads Not Asking Sympathy
 Vice President c. J. Brister of the New York Central Lines made plea for the end of unfair legisla- tlon and unfair competition 10 which, he said. railroads are sub jccted.

GIRL FORGER IS SENT
 TO FARM FOR WOMEN
Helen Nachily, IS, Admits Obtaining Money by
 False Pretetnses

Helen Nachily, alias Stella Ma chilly, alias Mary Dull, IS, of 1l6 Commonwealth avenue, was scn- fenced to the Connecticut State Farm for Women at Lyme when she pleaded guilty to charge of obtaining money under false pre- lenses in police court today.
 In view of the plea. no evidence was offered by the state and Prose- cutor Joseph G. Woods explained to the court that the mental atti- tude of the girl, who is a paroled in mate of Long Lane Farm, was de- fective. He said that she evidently carried on her criminal way with out once reckoning the seriousness of her actions and without having given the consequence sufficient thought.
 Miss Nachily was arrested yester- day by Traffic Officer Joseph Ken nedy on complaint of Teller Robert Chapman of the New Britain Trust Co.,, when she attempted to cash a check tor sl0.35 against the ac- count of Rose Birnbaum of 64 Grand street after the bank had been put on its guard to scrutinze all checks presented for payment under that signature.
 When arrested the girl refused to give her name and otherwise stead lastly refused to disclose any lnfor- nation to the police. After Detec- tive Sergeant Patrick J. O'Mara had produced evidence of her fraudulent check operations she finally broke down and admitted her wrongful acts
 Sergeant O'Mara uncovered evil dence indicating that the girl had carried on a campaign of forgery since the latter part Of October using the name of Rose Birnbaum or Mary Dull on nine checks which had been presented for payment at banks.
 Judge Mangan appeared as coun sel for Miss Nachily and told the court that he believed that ends of justice would be met if she were given a sentence to the state farm, 1 He too told the court that her men, ! tai attitude was warped.

l9 Harvard Employees to Get Money Alumni

New York, Dec (UP)--1t will be Merry Christmas for the 19 Harvard scrubwomen who were dis charged a year ago after the uni NersIty had been ordered to in crease their wages.
 X group Of Harvard alumni. so licitous Of the honor of Fair liar ward, set about some time ago to raise fund from which to pay the famous 19 the amount that was thought 10 be due them in back pay. The goal of the campaign. s3,- $50, has been reached and 1t only remains 10 determine the most suit able way 10 deliver the money.
 This was revealed to the United Press by Corliss Lamont, Harvard A. who was in charge of the cam palgn. It was no trouble raising the money. Lamont said, adding that there were plenty of loyal Harvard alumni who were glad to right what they deemed to be an injustice and 3 blot on Harvard's reputation. Only Harvard men were solicited.
 A letter to the Harvard Alumni Bulletin, which was widely quoted m newspapers. was sufficient to starr the contributions rolling in, Lamont said. He was emphatic in denying published inferences that the s3.SS0 would he given the scrubwomen by way of charity or as a Christmas present.
 The money will be handed over as their just due,' he said. Tt ls merely so much back pay, and is not in the nature of charity or a gift The fact that it will he paid on Christmas is merely q coincidence"
 Lamont was uncertain as 10 just how the money would be presented. It might be delivered in person by delegate of the committee. he said. or individual checks might be mail ed each of the women.
 The case of the 19 scrubwomen became a cause celebre when the university dismissed them rather than pay them the two cent addi- tional an hour required by Massa chusetts law Criticism Of Harvard authorities was widespread in the student body. the alumni, and the secular press generally.

Failure 10 Curtail Crops Defeated Federal Move to Keep Cotton Price Up Outlines Work of Past Year.

Washington, D. C.. Dec. b. P>-The farm board reported 10 congress today that agriculture, to achieve a par with industry, must adjust production to consumption and perfect a self-controlled eco- homie system Of distribution.
 The first annual report of the board contained the views. along with d summary of the past years studies, accomplishment and expert ments.
 Talk on Stabilization
 Out of its own experience with vhc { and cotton the board was able to tell the legislators that stabiliza- toin op. rations, without the backing .of adjusted production, have a limited field. The board members pointed to the result of their own stabiiZation efforts as an indication of some of the difficulties and hazards involved,
 Particularly they said, did the failure of cotton producers to curtaii acreage substantially in 1880, lead to defeat of stabilization measures.
 As for wheat, the board said it had concluded the world will remain gloomy through 1897 with the gen. eral price trend downward
 The board could see no hope,' it said, flor arresting such a movement or preventing it's serious conse- quences to American wheat farmers, by cooperative marketing as such, by stabilization measures Of the type already employed, or through adopt ing any of the proposed measures designed to dispose Of the surplus abroad at prices below domestic levels.
