the Indiana experiment which has
been watched with much interest by
other states that are soon to observe
their own centenaries.
Careful planning was necessary to
insure a general observance, SO the
commission began organizing the
state on the basis of the county. Cen
tennial chairmen were secured in the
various counties, each to select his
own committee for the planning and
execution of the work.
THE general schedule provided for
the holding of local and school cele-

that of authorship and direction. 1t

For the most part these pageants,
while presenting the broad outlines of
the history of the state as a whole, at
the same time depicted the history of
the more immediate neighborhoods in
which they were given. In this way
the local history of very considerable
part of the commonwealth was dra-
matized. since the geographical dis
tribution of the pageants was rather
surprisingly uniform, although the

to obey the mandate of President Will son and the Federation of Labor. AL though not made public the business agent of Local 30 stated that it would be read at todays meeting and is much less threatening than the pre- vious communication which was not obeyed.
 Immediately after the Presidents message is read this afternoon a sec- ond meeting will be called by the strikers to form the new labor party and to nominate senator to run in Connecticut. Fred Cederholm, for mer alderman of Bridgeport elected by the Socialist party, who participat- ed in the labor agitation of 1915, is being pushed forward prominently by the Socialist element in the machin- ists' organization here. Cederholm is said to be a labor organizer in Boston now, but has been requested to accept the nomination.
 Isaac K. Russell, field representative of the War Labor Board, has been re- called, it is reported. Confirmation of the fact was not possible owing to the absence of Alpheus Winter, exam finer of the board. Russell was strongly opposed by interests at vari- ance with that of organized labor.

MANY MACHINISTS RETURN TO JOBS
 THIS MORNING
Mass Meeting This After noon to Take Action on
 Letter of the President.
LOCAL LEADERS TO
 FORM NEW PARTY
Believed That End of Strike Has Come and All Will
 Be Back Tomorrow.

Resentful at the patriotic attitude of organized labor toward the strike of the Bridgeport machinists, the lead CTS of the strikers are said to have decided to revolt from the American Federation of Labor and renounce the leadership of Samuel Gompers.
 According to a statement issued to- day they intend to form a new labor body to be known as the American Labor Party and announce that 1t will be patterned after the British Labor Party. Action on the new organiza- ton will be taken today at the State street Casino immediately after the 1 Presidents message is read to the strikers and a vote taken as to whether they will return to work as directed by the country's chief exec utive or not.
 There seems little possibility that the vote will be anything other than compliance with the chief executives S request. No opposition will be made by the employment departments of the various factories towards the striking machinists. They will be ac cepted upon the basis as employed when they struck. This attitude Is expressed not only by members of the Manufacturers Association but by the management of the large munition plants here.
 The management of the Reming- ton Arms Co.,, Union Metallic Cart ridge Co.,, the American & British Co.,, the Liberty Ordnance Go, the Ameri- can Tube and Stamping Co.,, the Bridgeport Brass company and oth- CT big factories and munition ships report that a large percentage of the men were in line to go to work this morning and that they expect all of the n>1 to be at work when the whistles Slow tomorrow morning.
 Another big feature was added to the situation today when 1t was re- ported that a large number of men who left town to avoid trouble have returned to Bridgeport and have ap- lplied for and received their old jobs back. A large number of these men worked Sunday in order to get ma chinery which was out of order into running shape again, for the big one hundred per cent production effort which will start this week.
 Another letter has been received bI the strike committee from William M Johnston, president of the Interna tional Association of Machinists al Washington, again counseling the mel
