NJ 'CARTHY SAYS

Mayor-elect Patrick j. Mccarthy was
asked today if he had digested the inter-
view with Alderman John G. Dunn OF the
Third ward, which appeared exclusively
in the News Democrat yesterday
In this statement the alderman. who is
reputed 10 have considerable strength

that he is a candidate for police commits

sires TO do the proper thing under the cir
cumstances and shall be pleased to re-
ceive suggestions from wise men who
wish TO promote the city's interests"
Alderman Dunn today anticipated any
objections that might be voiced 10 his
retirement from the board for the more
honorable and lucrative position Of police
commissioners. II would only be following
a precedent that the Republicans estab-
lished few years ago when Police Com
missioner Lewis j. Pierce was alderman, .
he said, and resigned I'm order to accept
his present position. and a new election
rad to be held. There are plenty OF good,
loyal and able Democrats in my ward
who arc ambitious and who could serve
the people of the ward acceptably, IN
case ! should retire"
The alderman appeared TO be confident
that his friends would be able TO bring
such powerful pressure TO bear upon the
mayor-elect that he would be forced 10

one prominent Democrat said today:

pointing a member Of the Providence po-
lice commission to succeed Cot Harold
J Gross
Mr. Mccarthy is preparing public
statement, which will be made I'm ad-
vance OF his inaugural address. and is
likely to set forth i'm great detail the rea-
sons that influence the conclusion he has
reached.
He has been giving tho subject his clos
est attention, has spent hours listening 10
persons who think they arc eminently
qualified TO fill the position, or who have
friends they would like TO sec them there.
and has now decided to act upon his orig-
nal idea.
The subject was touched upon, it is un-
derstood. informally yesterday ar cuutt-

There are three doors TO the commits

R. !. MILLS To
FOLLOW ACTION
OF FALL RIVER

Dec 10 the 5000 operatives in all the
cotton mills of this state owned by Cod
dard Bros will receive substantial vol
untary increase in wages.
At the office Of Goddard Bros. . this
noon il was stated that no decision had
vet been reached as to the precise
amount Of the increase. and il was un-
certain Just how soon this would be de-
tcrmined.
The mills affected and the approx
mate number of employees are as follows ::
Lonsdale, two mills. 1900 employees; Ash
ton, one mill. $50 employees; Berkeley,
one mill $50 employees Pawtuxet valley,
500 employees; North Smithheld, one mill,
800 employees
IL is expected that the other cotton
mills I'm this vicinity will follow the ac-
tion OF Goddard Bros. Among the mills
expected to do so are those controlled
by the Knight and Lippitt interests. af-
fecting approximately 5000 hands.
There is also strong probability that
cotton mills in eastern Connecticut will
follow the example set by the Rhode
Island manufacturers. In this case
about 10 900 more operatives will be
benefited.
When wages were reduced i'm the Fall
River mills the action was not duplicated
I'm this section, wages remaining the
same. Last spring when an increase
was ordered I'm the Fail River mills, an
increase here was the result Therefore.
a 10 per cent increase is not necessary
at this time to place the scale Of wages
here on a parity with those i'm Ball River.
II is estimated that in this state about
25. 600 operatives will finally receive the
benefits OF an increase.
