GOVERNMENT IS ASKED TO STOP
 CONSCRIPTION

London, May 9.---A joint committee of the Trade Union Congress and the Labor party has sent a strong appeal to the government against enforcing conscription in Ireland. It says in part:
 'It must be clearly evident to the government that an attempt to en- force conscription would mean not only the shedding of food of thou sands of Irishmen, Englishmen and Scotchmen, but also the maintenance of a huge permanent army of occu- patton in Ireland. Today every sol dier is needed on the western front, yet the government is proposing a course which will involve the with draWal of thousands of soldiers to en- gage in a civil war which will out rage the conscience of the civilized world.
 Moreover, Irishmen are scattered over the wide world---in America and in the dominions of Great Britain it. self---besides large numbers on the western front The tragedy cannot be local or confined to Ireland. It may easily be the beginning of g. world tragedy in which our last hopes of a fairer future will be extinguished.'

AvIATORS
 FROM A SINKING
 HYDROAEROPL

An Atlantic Port, May - Their hydroaeropIanes adrift at sea and in danger of sinking from a leaking pom coon, Ensign Arthur Laverents, naval aviator, and c. C. Cotton, observer, were rescued by coastwise steamer 35 miles off Miami, Fla. Monday afternoon and brought here today on the steamer The men had been float ing on the plane IS hours without food or water after an engine break down which forced them to drop from a flight to the surface of the ocean.
 One of the pontoons of the hydro aeroplane sprang a leak during the long hours riding the waves and the craft would not have stayed afoat more than half an hour after the res cue, the aviators said. Sharks, with which the southern waters are in- fested, added to their peril.
 The captain of ther escuingsteamer said a heavy squall was coming up when the aircraft in distress was sighted and high seas had begun to break over it when his vessel came alongside. The pair were nearly ex- hausted.
 The aerop1ane, which weighs 2,2Oo pounds, was hauled abooard the steamer and was brought here with the aviators At the quarantine sta- ton it was turned over to the care of a government guardsrip which lowed it to a naval base here. It was found to be very little damaged.

STATEMENT OF
 BAKER CAUSE
 OF DISCUSSION

Washington, May 9-Secretary Bakers statement announcing that his prediction that more than 500, 900 American troops would be in France by early this year had even been sur- passed was widely discussed in con- gress today, where some members had been inclined to doubt the feas- 1bility of the secretary's statement be- fore the senate military committee in January.
 How many more than 0,000 have been sent aboard may not be disclos- ed for military reasons, and in nak- ing his statement Secretary Baker specifically requested that it be car ried to the public in exactly the terms in which he gave it. Under these con- ditions it permits of no amphfca- tion.
 Neither is it possisb1e to state how many troops actually have been trans ported during the first four months of the calendar year 1918, as this would disclose to the enemy the rate at which troops are moving.

RECOMMEN NEW RAILROAD STOPS
 FOR BRIDGEPORT

After a number of weeks of much planning and hard work, the trans portation committee of the Bridgeport Chamber of Commerce met at noon today and reached final decision as to the best location for the two new stations which it is hoped the New Haven railroad will see fit to erect in Bridgeport. The recommendations were sent to the railroad company this afternoon, and they will also be taken up by the Industrial Housing bureau of the Labor department, at Washington.
 In the recommendations, the com mittee names sites at Fairfield ave- nue and State street, and Crescent avenue between Central and Seaview avenues, and Seaview avenue and Helen street as the most favorabIe locations for the new stations.
 On the Crescent avenue site, the committee suggests that. the west bound station be located between Central and Seaview avenues, and the east-bound station between Sea- view avenue and Helen street.
 Before making this selection or sites. the transportation committee took every precauton to make thor ough investigation of the sltua1on' and it is believed that tby having the new stations in the places above named. that the greatest number or nennle will be benefited.

 While government officials from
 Washington last night were
 straining every effort to adjust
 the dispute between the manu-
 lecturers and the machiniStS,
 Samuel Lavit, accompanied by a
 body guard, wined and dined in a
 German cafe on Fairfield avenue
 near the railroad depot.
 That the War Department officials in Washington recognize the gravity of the situation in Bridgeport is oib- vious from the way they have rushed important officials to this city with a view to bringing about a settlement without in any way stopping the work upon the guns which mean life or death to our men at the front. Ac- cording to notification received from the capital officials they are stunned at the attitude taken by the workers in Bridgeport and are reluctant to be- lieve any body of men should so far forget their duty to the nation.
 Brigadier General c. c. Williams letter of appeal to the workers to continue at their tasks while the gov ernment arranged for wage increases was prominently displayed to all the workers in the shops yesterday and today and undoubtedly had the effect of keeping many men at their posts
 The letter was received by Waldo c. Bryant, district ordnance chief reminding the men that the govern ment has always dealt fairly with them and that their labor counts for so much at the present time to our men in France. It promises speeoy action in the matter of wage in crease and concludes by calling upon loyal workmen to stick to their tasks pending an adjustment.
 Another important phase in the sit uation was created when John J. O'Neil, state organizer of the Amerl- can Federation of Labor, said in most emphatic terms that no assistance will be given by other unions att1llat- ed with the American Federation o1 Labor, unless it is proven the strike of the machinists in Bridgeport has been indorsed by the 1nternatlona Association of Machinists through the executive body in Washington.
 O'Neil said also that if the consti' tutionality of the new law forbiddine persons to remain out of employment is sustained by the courts, the police will force men needed in the military establishment of the United States back into occupations essential to the government at this time.
 When asked today if the mach1n' istS union had obtained the indorse' ment of the international body ir Washington, O'Neil said, "As far as know they have not and I certainly would hear of it in case they had"
