ATTEMPT TO COLLECT

TOLL INCREASE FAILS

By Scripps-HOtoord Newspaper AHiano,
WASHINGTON. Jan. l8.-An-
other attempt to collect the war
debts appeared doomed to failure
today. The State and Treasury
departments are against it and
so are lot of treaties.
Rep. Harold KnutSon (R.,
Minn.) has introduced a bill
which provides that ships flying
the colors of any nation which
has defaulted on its war debts. or
failed to make a satisfactory eX-
tension of them. shall be assessed
an extra 20 per cent tonnage
charge for passing through the
Panama Canal
This money would 60 into a
treasury fund toward liquidation
of the war debts.
The bill was referred to the
Ways and Means Committee. The
committee asked the State and
easury departments for
opinions. In view Of treaty pro-
visions, Secretary Cordell Hull
wrote the committee that the bill
should not be passed.

Property Owners Have Rights

The Connecticut Supreme Court the other day said in one of it's decisions, "The Legislature has but recognized the con- mon law right of the abutter to control the use of the land in front of his prop erty, and his right to prevent it's use, except in the exercise of the public ease ment, by anyone else unless with his per mission" The case is officially known as the State of Connecticut against Rocco Muolo, driver of cab for the Terminal Taxi Company of New Haven, who was arrested for using taxi stand located Tn s front of the Hotel Taft, but designated for use by the New England Taxicab Con- pany, Incorporated, and the New Haven Yellow Cab Company, by the city traffic authority, with the consent of the Hotel company.
 The defendant claimed the law was un- constitutional in that the roadway was # public street, and that neither the traffic board nor the property owner could bar him from the taxi stand. The city court judge of New Haven upheld the conten- tion and sustained the demurrer. The case then went along until it reached the state highest court. Incidentally, the supreme or police court judge should rule on ques-
  minds whether this is an implication that there are really some judges who do not know the law. The public wonders, too, when it reads of an to 1 decision by the U. s. Supreme court, and at other times of x three to two decisions by our own supreme court.
 This taxi decision may mean more to the property owner than what was really intended If the traffic authority has no legal right to designate taxi stand with out the owners permission, how then can thesa authority designate bus terminals such as we have in Waterbury without the grant or consent of the property owners? We find many of them in the streets around here. Then, again, what . about these so-called "brick houses" which ! seem to be springing up here and there Tn the public streets every so often, at the request of the public utilities? Are these small structures, built in the roadway, legally constructed?
 We doubt if any property owner has ever given his consent to such installa- tions. We are almost positive that feW property owners have given their approval of the location of various "bus stands" about the city. The taxi stand decision may go far beyond anticipations, in it's scope.

Cummings Gets Palm

U. s. Attorney General Homer $. Cum. mings may not have surrounded himself
 with the best talent that the democratic
 party could offer to his Department of
 Justice, but in his own right he has earned
 for himself the plaudits reserved for
 those who reach the pinnacle. His
 summation of the governments side in the
 now famous gold clause case before the
 Supreme Court of the United States has
 been hailed as masterpiece of oratory
 and logic. The palm was awarded by the
 hard-boiled newspaper correspondents
 who covered the court. No stricter jury
 could be found.
 And yet Homer Cummings has built his
 reputation upon his oratory and his ability
 to sway large or small audiences by the
 power and briliance of his delivery. All
 those who recall his San Francisco ad-
 dress to the democratic national conven
 tion claim it was magnificent. All sorts
 of adjectives were used in connection with ' it. It made him the national chairman ot the party and prominent figure in dem-
 ocratic politics. It is no surprise here in Connecticut that he is now acclaimed for his work before the Supreme Court. There is no question about Mir Cum rnings' ability to head the Department of { Justice to which he was named as a result fof the death of the late Senator Thomas Walsh. But there have been many who 2 failed to realize that in Cummings the department was getting not merely 9 , competent Cabinet official, but also a par ! ticuIarly gifted one. We think that the days to come, if he continues to lift his voice in behalf of the governments points at law, will prove this to be true. He held the august Supreme Court silent for many minutes. rare occasion that one 10 be commented upon. We in Connecticut should recognize it as such

turned in this direction of recent years to supplement their revenue. If all goes well Senator Joseph H. Lawlor will present TOT the nth time a horse-racing bill and Tor the nth time various organizations VIII bring forward their arguments that our morals will be ruined if we allow people to place bets on races.
 As if our morals weren't at pretty low point now and as if the states in which betting on horse-racing is controlled by bovernment weren't as moral as those where such is taboo. We just can't quite believe that such is true. And we would like to have some of the opponents of the legalized betting get few statistics from the states, particularly those adjacent to Connecticut that have gone in for the same in recent years. Maybe Connecticut is too late. It might not be even worth our time now to legalize betting. Massa- chusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and New York are all ahead of us and established in this field of sport.
 There is much to be said about legalized betting. Incidentally don't think that horse racing is illegal It isn't We could have all forms of horse racing in Connec- ticut, if there were tracks, promoters, etc. We do have trotting and pacing, but not racing, because it exists only where people can bet on the "ponies". And that IS what is illegal in most states Change the status and you get the people going to the tracks. You also get annual revenues depending on the length of the racing sea- son. It may be wrong to encourage this as form of state revenue, but it's cer- tainly proving financially attractive.

By this time you may have seen the movie, "The Mighty Barnum.'" Whether you have or have not, however, you might find 1t very Interesting to read hthe boow by the same title, just published, writ ten by Gene Fowler and Besb Meredyth.
 Here we have q new experiment in publishing; the presentation or a moving picture scenario, or script---I'm not certain which term is cOrrect---in the form in which It was used in the studio. All the technical terms are here, tho studio jargoD, the blue print, so to speak, which the director has in front of him as he makes the picture.
 Aside from all this, the story .S interesting in its own right.
 It tells about Barnum. how he began as q storekeeper- addicted to inc purchase Of threc-headcd frogs and such, how he discovered the pubIic's fondness for being hum plugged and set out to accommo- date 1t, and how he blundered and stumbled along from triumph to disaster to triumph agalDf
 It gives q good picture of the great showman, and an entertain. ing view of the life of his time.
 It is possible, though, to be . little worried about the effect that this publication may have on fu- tnre writers. some authors--John Dos Passos, for instance--hnye ai- ready experimented with moving picture technique in the novel. And n flood of others may Do feared.
