LABOR COMMISSIONERS
 VIEW OF THE INDUSTRIAL
 SITUATION IN CONNECTICUT

Labor Commissioner P. H. Connol- ly does not take a gloomy view or the industrial situation in the state. He thinks that after the first of the year there will be a revival of business in all lines of manufacturing. He bas- es this opinion on information Whlch he has received that the managers or factories are adding to their stock Of raw material which they intend to have made into the finished product. If the outlook indicated a serious bus mess depression to last for an appre- ciable length of time, it is not likely that the manufacturers would be ad- ding to their stock of raw material. That, at least, is the view which Com missioner Connolly takes, and he says it is backed by his many years exper- fence as a factory operative. He says in @ pretty positive manner that there is not a likelihood that there will be dull times, and that the calamity howlers have reason to disturb peoples nerves by their howls Com missioner Connolly makes periodical visits to the state employment agen- cies which are connected with his de- partment, and from the information which he receives from those in charge of them, he is able to form a reliable opinion as to the condition of the labor market. He says the condition in Waterbury is worse than in any other center of population in the statae. He believes there are more people out \of work in that city, in proportion to it's size than in any oth- CT city of the state. He was in Wa terbury, this week, and was informed by the state employment agent that there were a great many people seek ing employment. It is noticed that q large number of workmen of foreign nationality have gone to their native country to remain until there is more demand for their labor

agencies for the month of, November this year with those of the cores bonding month of 1912 shows that the statement of Commissioner Con holly in regard to the unenviable dis tinction of Waterbury is not an exag- geration. In November 1912, there were 223 applications for work in Wa terbury. In the same months of this year the number was 447, or just one more than double the number of q year ago. In Hartford the number of applications for employment for last months was 1S9, as against 210 for November, 1912, twenty-one less. In Bridgeport the applications were fifty less this year, and in Nor wich they were one more. The total more than during the month of No vember, 1912. But for the large number in Waterbury the record of applications for work in the five state agencies during the month of Novem- Der would be about the same, if not less, than the number for the same month last year. The increase in the ment may be due to the fact that out door work for the season has been brought to a close in a number of places. Some of the men who, dur ing the open season found employ ment in the making of roads, or at OIAIeI ouIoOOi WOIh' are IoW CLOWo- ing into the cities, while others are returning to their native countries across the Atlantic. There is abso- 1ute1y nothing in the condition to jus tify the calamity bowling which IS heard in some places. It has not es- capped notice that the bowling is ac- companied with cheers for the Re publican party. The bowling is noth- ing more than political campaign method, and we may expect to hear it for the purpose of securing votes for the party of the howlers. But the bowling will deceive no one--Hartford Times.

HUERTA PLEASED BY
 FLETCHER'S ACTION / IN SAVING TAMPTCO

Mexico City, Dec. 16-Expressions of appreciation were uttered by Huer- ta, to American Charge O'Shaughnessy at a casual meeting for the part taken by Rear Admiral Fletcher in prevent ing the destruction of property worth many millions at Tampico.
 Huerta, instead of being incensed at Fletcher because, as rumored here, the Admiral used his influence in fav-
 or of the rebels, told O'Shaughnessy
 that had it not been for Fletcher
 attitude the besieging force undoubt-
 edly would have vented it's resentment
 at the resistance put up by the Fed
 erals by applying the torch to the
 National Railway property, oil refin-
 cries and other possessions, which, for
 time, were at their mercy. When
 O'Shaughnessy asked Huerta if he
 should consider these utterances as official, the President replied in the
 negative
 It is understood here that Fletcher
 suggested to the repel leaders that a
 repetition of the vandalism committed during the attack on Monterey several months ago, when railway equipment worth more than million pesos was burned, would cause a bad impression throughout Mexico as well as in the United States.
 He also created doubt in the rebels i minds as to the utility of persist1ng ir the attack on the city by asking il | they thought loot and the destruction of property would compensate the 1 Constitutiona1ists for the condemna. | ton of such excesses in the United | States and elsewhere.
 Advices from Tampico say that ir all probability the rebels had they persisted, could have made the city | theirs, despite the vigorous defense O. | the Federal garrison. But with the | suburbs fully in their possession anC | only a decisive charge necessary seem l 1ngly to cause the city to capituIate | they abruptly abandoned the attacI l Saturday afternoon and retreated

Officials of the depar tment of agri- culture of the Canadian government are said to believe that the proposed embargo by the United States on Ca nadian potatoes, because of alleged "powdery scab,'' is being engineered by American interests who hope to corner the market in this country While Canada is rightly concerned over the matter, the American consumer-that { uch-abused person-wiI1 perhaps think that corner in potatoes would affect him most of all. Frankly one does not believe that this is the ''un- derlying motive of the proposed ern- fbargo.'' But, at all events, the con- sumer is warned-if that will do him any good.
