BOSSES BLOCK PEACE MOVE
INCLUDING TRADES
State investigation of the causes
that lead up to the carpenters strike
and of the factors that are keeping
it going will begin next Monday when
Chairman Leo ]. Winiecki of the state
arbitration board will start public
hearings at the La Sale hotel
This drastic action of the state fol-
lows the failure of the aldermanic
committee to accomplish anything
toward building trades peace. The al
dermanic committee went to both
sides and spoke softly, but could not
get the opponents into a mediation
meeting. The committee puts blame
for the continuation Of hostilities
upon the shoulders of the Carpenter
Contractors assn.
The report of AID Carl T. Murray,
chairman of the aldermanic commit
tee, to the mayor will read about as
follows:
'The union men are willing to meet
the contractors even more than half
way. The are willing to abandon
their claim for the limitation of ma
terials; would abandon demand that
future agreements expire April 1, in
stead of May 81; would compromise
the wage question.
"The contractors seem unwilling to
make any concession toward peace,
seem even unwilling to renew their
offer of 212-cent-an-hour increase
for the last half of 3-year agree
ment."
Some carpenters deny they have
ever said they would be willing to
make such concessions as are men
toned; others say the aldermen have
about the right dope.
The state has the power to COM
pei both carpenters and contractors
to come before it and tell what they
know about past or present phases of
capitalism or labor that brought on

other apparent cause than that they
were union men are going back to
work. Nineteen of them have already
been reintsated.
The action of the. w. U. looked
such a high-handed procedure that
government labor agent made an in
vestigation. He ordered the company
to reinstate the men. The company
di dnot act as quickly as he desired,
so he paid second call and gave an
other order for the men to be put
back to their jobs.

said was his wife.

cHILDREN's AUTO RIDE
Annual Outing of the Playground
Children Next Friday Morning

The auto ride. which has come to
be an. annual feature of the play
ground life of Bennington children
is without exception. the most popu-
lar and the greatest anticipated event
of the summer. 1t ranks with Christ
mas and almost oyer-shadows the
Fourth of July in the children's idea
of 4 happy occasion. For some of
them it is the only automobile ride
during the year, and for all it is the
most enjoyable because of the com
mon feeling of joyous companionship
produced by going in such large
number. Not a spectator can help
bnt feel moved as he sees the long
line of happy waving children roll
past.
To make such a ride possible, it
only means that the owners of ears
give their use for an hour during the
early part of the morning. A large
number OF cars will be needed this
year to accommodate the children,
so that none need be disappointed.
A list has been prepared by the com
mittee, and as far as possible every
automobile owner in Bennington will
be asked to cooperate. If anyone
who is willing to lend ear should be
missed, it will be considered n great
favor If he will kindly notify Miss
Martha Pratt or Miss Mathilda Vos-
sle;.
The cars will meet at O'Clock
next Friday morning at the play
ground The children will meet at
$50 and be lined up according to
numbers on their tickets.

NORTH vs.. EAST
representatives of Bennington Viii
lagos to Clash on the Diamond

On Saturday next this great annual
event will take place on the play
ground.
Nine Northern Stars will attempt
TO outshine nine Sons of the East.
Can they do it? Yes" emphatical-
ly declare the Northern Lights.
No vociferously reply the wise
men of the east. Each nine repre-
sents the cream of wheat garnered
from the sturdy manhood of the two
villages. Not wooden headed or
wooden legged man among them.
Men have been selected with a single
eye for victory-men who like Gid
cons band will take a drink without
removing their arms-men who have
the courage to say mo" when asked
if they honestly think they can play
ball.
Not a player on the North Benning
ton team who will promise to make
over three home runs. That is mod
esty for you. Every one of the nine
from this village promises to knock
the cover off the ball. if he hits it
hard enough. That is what we call
ambition and courage.
A large crowd win give inspiration
to both sides and really will be nee
essary to circle the field and keep
these celestial bodies from getting
out of their orbit while running bas-
es. The small sum of ten cents will
be charged to defray the expense of
resetting the diamond. That is to
say; it will cost a trifle to replace
the stolen bases and the dirt that will
be kicked off the earth when the fel-
lows begin to unwind.
II is hoped that liberal patronage
will provide surplus which will be
used to maintain the base ball activ-
tiles of the Civic League for next
season.
