Judge Miller said tonight that the American Circus Company is a holding company organized to conserve the in- terests of the circuses affected. One or them has for the last three years competed with the Ringling- clrcus in the New York district. and according to Judge Muller this practice will be continued. .1 The Hagenbeck- “'allace circus. the largest of the four, probably will be chosen to play the New York district 3311812 mists.

This plan met with the approval of the fire wardens present. I The appointment of these men was :authorized by the Legislature. The |Stale has bought enough equipment to supply the. 150 additional wardens and at the same time leave equip- ment in the hands of the present war- ;dens who will be known as equipment ‘men and will have charge of all the paraphernalia and will be responsible for scclng that each ilrc. warden has sufficient equipment to meet the m eds of his district. The equipment secured by the State consists of a ”single iworestcrs spray pump." one to be furnished to every fire warden. and a supply of wire brooms and shovels. The spray pump is used to deadcn the blazing under brush or whatever may be burning in order that the fighters may throw sand or dirt on the blaze to smother it. This is the first time the State has ever supplied the fire wardens with equipment. due to the small ap- propriation for such work. F. 5. Bl 'I‘TICR\\'()RTH IS I'I’HELD BY LEGION MEN OF COUNTY.

It was ac.— complished by automatic application of electric current when the locomo- tive came within dangerous proxim- ity of the obstruction. Mr. Bardo said that the fault might have been with the particular type of device tried by the ”New Ha.- ven" road. Inyestigations by a. 'special train control committee has demonstrated according to the interstate commerce commission. that the. devices are practicable. It contends that many wrecks would have been averted on different railroads of the country had automatic train control been install- ed. "Our investigations have shown that automatic train control has long since passed the experimental stage." the commission reports. “In fact no safety devices. such as the automatic coupler. the air brake and the auto- matic block signal were perfected to as high a degree as the aut‘dmatic train control before they were either. ordered installed or- were voluntarily adopted. "The fourteen years of investiga— tion and study. the service tests under varying conditions. and the results obtained in the actual employment of these devices over periods of years upon some of the roads have clearly demonstratyid the practicability of and the necessity for automatic train- stop or train control. The time has now arrived when the carriers should be required to select and in- stall such device as will meet our specifications and requirements" ‘ The "New Haven" ioad is one of forty- ninc railroads selected “with regard to the measure of risk of ac- cident in connection with traffic con— ditions thereon. " "\Vc have decided not lp limit by our order " says the commission. "the installation of these devices to roads or parts of roads already equipped with automatic block signals. because we have. no desire to discourng. 01:. forts for automatically controlling} trains without the aid of the flxcdl wayside signals. The statement. thcrcforo. as to the primary function of automatic train-stop or train con- trol dcvlCPs recognizes the poasilillity of establishing such a dnvicc without the use of automatic block signals l". conjunction therewith."
