"rile STATE COMMISSION AND
TROLLEY FARES.
The decision of .tho Connecticut
Utilities Cmnmlssloh in the matter of
the fifteen cent fares betwen Man-
chester nnd llurtford is important. as
the first decision of the commission
upon such it muttcr and as indicating
whnt may he expected under similar
conditions elsewhere. The“ commit»
sion' finds for the trolley road, and
the people. of the two towns will have
7 _- to pay fifteen cents fare on that line
1 . Auntll such time us the travel warrants
a. change, if it ever should. This dc»
eision docs not mean that in some
I «other case the commission might not
find for the petitioning public and
give them cheaper fares. The theory
is that. the road has a right to corn
odomethlng over its running expenses
and should not be called upon to con—
. tribute too hcnvily to the cost of
.-.‘public accentnunlution. Concerning
this interesting mutter the (Jourunt ol

; mission. published in yesterday's
Conrunt~lhat the fifteen-cent fnrc
between Hartford and Manchester
should stand unchaltged~~bad been
,awaited with large interest. all over
- the state. This was the first case of
I its kind to come before the commis-
sion and the text of the decision
shows that lhnt body gave it very
careful consideration.
We take it for granted that both
”Manchester and Hartford would ruth-
er-have the lure ten cents than fifteen
'wfor that matter, rather have it five
than ten. Low rates facilitate travel
and travel by trolley m‘euns retail
l‘trsde. But there are other considera-
tions lnvolvcd, and the commission
. sets them out clearly in its ruling, Not
so very long ago any one who init-
msted that it might be possible to
ride comfortably and speedily from
Manchester to .l—lnrtford for fifteen
. cents would have been laughed at as
- Va‘drenmer. The trolley has worked
a revolution.
. The commission in passing judg~
ment in this case must have felt it
was between the devil and the deep
sea. To decide against the reduction
”was to refuse the request of a large
‘ d flourishing community. Where
9' question had even token its
_ in local politics, while to grant
9 «reduction meant a. shower of po-
titions from all over the state for
similar action and an unsettling of

mothers particularly careful in their

Miss Lockwood then welcomed the

that the idea of an open meeting and
the formulation of the plan had been
in the hands of Miss [it’lnueo who
would take charge of the further exer-
clues.
Miss Plnneo told of some of her ear-

In leading up to her talk on “An Am-

to the and tort that so mnny heroes
are not recognized until they are dead.

great life, that Nathan little was only].

to do it openly, masking themselves.‘
that the many brave deeds of the wom-

to with awe. Prudence Wright, of
Pepperell, for instance, got together a
number of her women friends who put
on their husbands' clothes and defend:

The hearing of all this on the lung'-
