SCHOOL SUPERVISOR.
Committee Named to Consider Advisa
biiity of Securing One for Town.


The members of the town school
named Rev. Clarence II. Barber, John
a. Paine and Edward A. Sullivan a
committee to confer with the state
board of education and to make such
investigation as may be necessary to
determine the ACCESSIBILITY OF securing
a supervisor OF schools for Killingly.
A conference has been arranged for
today with Secretary Charles D. Hine
Of the state board at Hartford.
One plan under consideration is to
have the supervisor that is to be ap-
pointed at the expense of the state for
the town of Brooklyn also to do the
supervising in Killingly, such an ar
rangement being considered as feasible
and possible of being made operative
at less expense to this town, which is
not eligible to receive free supervis-
ion, than would likely be incurred I'M
der any other method which would
produce equally good results. The
sub committee of the board has not
been empowered, however, to do more
than investigate. They will report
their findings to the committee Sor ac-
ton.
The organization of the board for
this year has been completed as fol-
lows; Chairman, Frank P. Warren

To Transfer Interest in Ross Mill.
II. NJ. Caruthers, who formerly con-
Quoted a business in the Ross mill at
East Killingly, a property which he
purchased, is making arrangements for
the transfer of the interest he retains
in the plant. which has been occupied
for some time by the Hope Printing
company, but not operated to any ex-
tent. though they shipped much ma
chinery there. Mr.. 'CarutherS says
that several concerns have expressed
wish to occupy the mill for manufac
turing purposes
The United Handle & Manufacturing
company, which Mr.. Caruthers owns
and which he removes from its orig
toned, is now located at Canton, O.,
where great success has come to the
concern. This Industry is now oper-
ating about 40 machines and giving
employment to nearly zoo people, a
number that will be gradually in
creased. Inability to get the, proper
variety of wood and insufficient
skilled labor We're the causes for re-
moving the business from East Kill
ingly.

A Decision of Serious Consequence

The decision of the unions of vari-
Gus classes of railroad employees to re-
quest the government to permit such
railroad rates as will enable the rail-
roads to pay such wages as the en-
ployes deem fair is indeed decision
of serious consequence. When the
federal government once undertakes
the regulation of wages, of discriminate
ing between the employees of various
enterprises and guaranteeing a GER
tain rate of wage to a certain class of
employee, it is very evident that the
government has undertaken a PROPOSE
ton that it cannot successfully nego-
tiate. And yet on the other hand, If
the government is to decide a what
rate a railroad is to sell transporta-
ton, the only commodity it has to sell,
with transportation rate TO a large ex
tent determining the rate of wage. it is
also evident that the employees are
within their rights in demanding that
their wage be taken into consideration
in determining the rate. But once es-
tablish this principle, and other big
enterprises for which government reg
ulation is demanded, will put UP the
same proposition. as, for example, the
employees of the teel trust or the to-
bacco trust, or the sugar trust or any
of the other big interests. If govern
ment control extends, as it must in the
end, to control of prices, then the arg
ument with be that such control must
include consideration of the rate of
wage. In such a case where does the
general consumer come in? just where
he did when Roosevelt settled the coal
strike The gen erdl consumer Will pay
the frsigI1r.-Watsrbury American.
