that is not the fault Of he mirror like newspapers, but is the fault of the prohibtionists who fail to pro- vide the fireworks for their side. And as to industrial conflicts. let us refer to the very latest one occur ring: the garment strike in New York, still being settled. Will cranks claim that the papers failed to re- port it properly? Or let's get down to brass tacks right in New Britain: The recent activities of several Communists. Can any crank claim that the Herald did not give fair, impartial and extended news report Of these occurrences? For several days this news received prominent frst-page attention, greatly 10 the disgust of cranks who thought such activities should be suppressed by the papers,
 AS for the editorial columns O. newspapers, these are not lncludtu in the news sections. Editors reserve them for expressions of opinion. and are as free to take up any side of a question there as ministers or the gospel have similar liberty ID the pulpit. That is what we are do- ing at this moment.
 The day has departed when reput- able newspapers Of standing. pros- pcrity and the independence that goes with it fear 10 publish all the news their resources permit them to obtain. If a crank really wants to work I'D a criticism worth while he would have an opportunity by point ing out that the newspapers are opening their columns to so many divers statements by so many more or less prominent individuals that too much of a cranky nature sets into the papers nowadays from these sources. People everywhere ""ork the papers" with their ideas, ana
 ,su.l,v any notion that is startling enough sees print. There IS d' Bernard Shaw. for instance, stand- ing at the top of the list. Personally we merely restrain ourselves sometimes with great effort whenever we see one of ms funny notions in print. And there are others.

Confirmation Of Mir.

THE POWER RATES

The point made by George r.. Atwater. assistant treasurer Of the Fafnir Bearing O., that the rates of the Connecticut Light X Power Co. are 2G per cent higher than they were before 1920 in spite of i'm provements in generating and dis tributing current and lower costs Of production, is one well taken.
 It is significant that objection to the industry fostered and aided by J. Henry Roraback through politi- cal connections thus comes under the microscope of an important manufacturing industry. Heretofore Srumbling about the public utilities has been confined quite generally 70 others who have not such Q high stake in the cost Of current A more influential protest against the practices of the public utilities in the state, aided and abetted by q Public Utility Commission at pres ent under fire, is to be welcomed.
 The favortc method of the util- ity concerns in this state, when un- der attack, is to ignore the barrage and let 1t blow over. In the course Of a few weeks the attackers usual ly lose heart and desist With the ?. L.

Police Disperse Mob With Tear

Pittsburgh Pa. Feb. 14 (UP) - Renewed riotinG was feared today as a bitterly fought strike of taxicab drivers entered it's 34th day.
 Cabs were withdrawn from the streets last night after a day of strife which was ended only when police hurled tear gas bombs into . mob of a thousand strikers and sym pathizers who had stoned and club bed drivers and their guards and burned one cab.

 A demand that uniformed police men be put aboard the taxies 10 guard Strikebreakers was refused by Mayor Charls II. Kline. Police Su- pcrintendent Walsh said his men would continue to protect the pub lic. but would not replace the steel helmetcd deputies who have been accompanying the drivers.

Seven riot calls sent every police reserve in the city to the sec- tion. and mounted patrolmen charg- ed the mob time and again in vain. several Policemen Hurt Several policemen were slightly wounded, and witnesses said scores of men staggered about the streets bleeding from injuries. In addition to the cab which was burned, five others were wrecked and lowed away amid showers of bricks Appearance of a cab anywhere in | the 80 block district area was the signal for q renewed battle.

The Parmelee Transportation Co.,, which operates the cabs, is willing to recognize the union, but insists that 37 per cent Of the receipts is q fair wage. several efforts at conciliation, in- cluding one directed by Secretary of Labor James Davis, have failed.
