 of several years, have placed the company in position to meet all present demands, as well as any an- ticipated call for additional electric power, including the normal peace time consumption increase. The in- Stallation of a ,00O-kilowatt gen. erating unit, which has been ordered, and is under construction for the Devon steam station, will insure ample capacity.
 Other Responsibilities
 But while active preparations to meet the defense power demand nave been in progress, the company has kept in mind its other respon- abilities. It has long been company policy to extend its lines each year thus bringing service to outlying farms and sections where electricitv has not been available.
 As a result, 87 per cent of the farms in the territory served by the company now have electric service available. In the first II months of 1940, Al miles of rural extensions were built, making total of 1869 miles of such construction by the company in the past 13 years.
 It is to be hoped that the national defense requirements will not in- terfere with this program, for if the present rate of building continues until 1944, it is estimated by the public utilities commission of the state that service will be available to all farms, including those sections where there are as few as three to mile. The steady expansion of rural identification in Connecticut has been made possible by the CO., operation of the public utilities commission and agricultural leaders of the state with the power com- panies. Continued cooperation can be expected to bring about the goal of complete identification for Con- necticut, so far as it is economically feasible.
 New Construction
 Rural identification, however, Is but one part of the story. Nearly

Draft inducteeS and others entering military service cannot under the present laws have their automobile registrations transferred to others free of charge, Mrs. Alice Bradley, supervisor of the local branch office of the State Motor Vehicle Department has been informed by Commissioner Michael A.

 Mrs. Bradley asked for a rul- ing after she had received dozens of inquiries about free transfers of registration.

Equitable Spread

The cost of our gigantic war
expenditures should be spread as
widely and equitably as possible.
1t would be a tragic mistake
simply to pump more and more
United States obligations into
our banks. They are already
carrying a wholly unprecedented
percentage of their reserves IN
government debts.
The administration should give
very serious consideration TO
raising the interest rate on
issues in order 10 make them
more attractive TO ordinary in
vestors. All along the exemption
of government securities from
taxation has favored millionaires,
wealthy estates, etc, not the
majority of small investors.
There is much to be said for
the proposal that the govern
ment no longer issue obligations
entirely free from taxation. The
problem, however. does have
another side.

Auto Shares Weak

The continued weakness in
automobile securities last week
is not entirely easy 10 under
stand. First. the companies are
running full blast on private
cars and trucks. retail sales of
which are so large that dealer
stocks are somewhat less than
usual at this season. Second,
there Is no certainty that. when
the motor manufacturers get
shifted more largely 10 war
equipment. they will not be al
lowed to make reasonable profits
and. at the same time, amOrtlze
investments.
The textile industries. both
cotton and wool manufacturing,
are running at near capacity.
Shoe manufacturing shows def
mite gains. Apparently lumber
production declined A little last

Cost Of War
Should Be
Spread Widely
BY r.. c. FORBES

How should our multi-billion-
dollar war bill be met?
Germany and France adopted
during the World War what
they thought was the easiest
way: They printed more and
more paper money.
Finally. Germany's currency
became so worthless that a mil
lion marks was little more than
a tip for a waiter. The French
franc. in 1914. when the war
started. was worth 1913 cents.
II became so diluted that by
1927 il was quoted at only 1892
cents.
These instances should prove
effective warning TO US not to
resort TO printing presses in the
deIusion that thus can our stag
gering expenditures be painlesSly
met.
The amount of United States
money in circulation has been
increasing. Total circulation was
4.5O0.00O.0Oo in 1880. Today it
is 81. 500. 0e0,e Although this
is an increase of Is per cent, our
stock of hard" money, gold, has
increased still more. Whereas we
owned only $4,000. 100000 gold
10 years ago, we today own more
than $4,000, 100000.
=, Meanwhile, we have almost
denuded the whole world of sill
yer. BY paying IS cents an
ounce for foreign silver and the
fantastic price of 70 cents an
ounce for domestic silver. We
have accumulated the appalling
total of 2,Soe. 600. 600 ounces
for which we have no more need
than an automobile has for five
wheels. And because of our
standing offer of S35 an ounce
for gold. our holdings of this
metal have increased so rapidly
that We are no nearer attaining
the ridiculous goal set by Con-
gress. namely. that the govern
ment's stock of silver equal one
fourth nf-the total monetary
value of the gold and silver
stocks"

No Hysteria Wanted

The dominant consideration,
in my humble judgment, should
be 10 encourage rank-and-file
individuals and families to SUBJ
scribe all they possibly can in
order to enable the country to
cope with its emergency, with
its staggering spending, its
breathtaking deficits.
Investments such as war saw
ings certificates should be made
available and aggressively-but
not Observation-Disclosures. If
the interest offered is halfway
attractive buyers can be de-
pended upon TO come forward by
the million. especially since lead
ing savings banks have cut their
interest allowance TO IL per
cent.
If the whole financing problem
be handled intelligently, the
United States should not have
10 60 10 the extremes found
necessary in Europe and in the
United Kingdom. There govern
ment has peremptorily COM
Wandered many investments.
1t is fitting that income tax
rates be increased nearly all
along the line. and that lower
incomes than heretofore be
tapped.
II is also fitting that corpora
ton taxes be stiffened, and that
the government seize the lion S
share of war profits"
Inevitably our public debt will
balloon But-and this is inf
nitely important-it is essential
that Uncle Sam show a salutary
example by drastically eradicat-
Ing all unnecessary ladling out
o. taxpayers money. He hasn't
done so thus far.
