 Patrick F. o'Meara of New Haven called attention to the fact that the city court record of New Haven shows fewer arrests for drunkenness the past year than for corresponding period for 40 years. He said that it was significant of the fact that pro- hibition is not necessary to promote temperance.
 The league passed amendments to the constitution relating to assess ments of organizations affiliated with it and membership fees of individuals with view to creating fund to meet the expenses incident to opposition to prohibition legislation. The executive council was directed to prepare a plan by which fraternal organizations may cooperate with local branches of the Trades Union Liberty League of Connecticut. On the motion of Delegate Carl Lang OI bIlOSepOIC CHS SASCuI1YS council was instructed in the event of congress passing a war time prohi- bition bill, to telegraph President Wilson asking him to veto it.

 that all members of organized labor shall consider the interests of the workers engaged in the liquor indus try on the question of prohibition
 when casting their ballots on election day, in accordance with a guarantee of the American Federation of Labor to protect the interests of all allied or ganizations.

THE WORK OF A MOB

Walter F. White says in the Sep tember Crisis: The recent strong letter of President Wilson on lynch- ing was undoubtedly called forth by representations from colored people following the lynchers in Brooks and Lowndes counties, Ga., May IF to "A.
 Hampton Smith, white farmer, was killed, and newspaper dispatches report six persons as having been lynched for complicity. Investiga- ton shows that at least eleven per- sons were killed.
 At the time she was lynched, Mary Turner was in her eight month of pregnancy The delicate state of her health, one month or less previous to, delivery, may be imagined, but this fact had no effect on the tender feel ings of the mob. Her ankles were tied together and she was hung to the tree, head downward. Gasoline and oil from the automobiles were thrown on her clothing and while she writhed in agony and the mob howled in glee, a match was applied and her clothes burned from her person. When this had been done and while she was yet alive, knife, evidently one such as is used in splitting hogs, was taken and the woman's abdomen was cut open, the unborn babe falling from her womb to the ground. The infant, prema- turely born, gave two feeble cries and then it's head was crushed by a member of the mob with his heel. Hundreds of bullets were then fired into the body of the woman, now mercifully dead, and the work was over

HALF HIS TIME
 FOR LOYALTY WORK

NEW LONDON-John c. Ellis, ma chinist, president of the local branch of the American Alliance for Labor and Democracy, has for weeks been giving half or more of his time to loyalty work. This he has done at his own expense, thus losing half or more of his wages for the sake of Amer ica's cause.
 That's a rather large sacrifice for a working man, his associates declare. One of the things Ellis did was to lead the local Alliance fight against rent profteers whose gouging was making it hard for workers to give their best service to war work.

Editor THE LABOR STANDARD:

The Connecticut Woman Suffrage Association is more than gratified at the attitude of the Labor unions, throughout the state in their willing ness to stand by the past record of organized labor towards the suffrage movement.
 Just recently we have asked for their support in an attempt to show Senators Brandegee and Mclean that the suffrage question is a live and inn portant one at this time, by sending resolutions to the senators asking for the immediate passage of the Federal Suffrage Amendment, and also their favorable vote on the amendment.
 Aside from the need of the adoption of woman suffrage as war meas ure to make this a real democracy rather than democracy of special group of the people as we now have it, there is the ever vital interest, to the Labor man, in the economic side of this question. The thousands of unorganized and voteless women in in dustry today is a menace that the trades unionist is we'll aware of, and he stands ready not only to protect his own interests but to help the working woman to protect hers also, and the exercise of her political rights through the medium of the ballot is unques- tionably her greatest safeguard, as it is the safeguard of every individual in democratic form of government when intelligently used.
 The following Hartford Unions have sent resolutions. the Connecticut directors endorsing the amendment:
 Machinists, Carpenters, Plumbers, Barbers, Typographical, Pattern Max CTS, Electrical Workers, American Federation of Railway Workers, Rail- way Trainmen, Street Railway Elm ployes, Tailcrs, Lady Garment Work CTS, Holders, Painters, Bakers.
 Respectfully yours,

The brewery workers, bar tenders, hoisting engineers, and two bakers locals, and cigarmakers form the nucleus of the league. It is an or ganization favoring license.

SOMETHING ABOUT 1. WOMAN SUFFRAGE
''Of What Real Value Are Bras sards When Those Who Wear Them Are Denied a Voice in Government? ?''

HARTFORD The Theatrical Fed eration has passed resolution en- dorsing the federal suffrage amend ment and urging it's passage by the. United States Senate. The resolution recites the battles of organized labor for living wage, shorter hours, bet ter education and improved working conditions and shows the assistance to the male workers of the weapon of the ballot for the lack of which women workers have been forced to work long hours under unsanitary conditions and for less than a living wage and are denied equal pay for equal work. with view to arming the female workers of the nation with the same weapon as the men, the bal lot, in order that they also may be enabled to promote and protect their interests" the resolution concludes: "the Hartford Theatrical Federation hereby endorses the action of Presi- dent Wilson in urging the passage of the woman suffrage amendment now pending in the United States Senate, of the American Federation of Labor, the Bridgeport Central Labor Union and other progressive organizations and the secretary was instructed to send a copy of this resolution to President Wilson, Senators Mclean, Brandegee and the press.
 Rockville Democrats Endorse Suffrage

Sachse, chairman town committee; States At torney Thomas F. Noone, Lyman T. Tingier, clerk of the superior court; City Clerk J. N. Keeney, Frederick J. Cooley, Seiectman, George Forster, postmaster and Fred G. Hartenstein and Geo. P. Wendheiser of the board of education.
 Want More Than Brassards
 Governor Holcomb decorated group of farmerettes at the Capitol with brassards with the shield and the coat of arms of the state printed on them as recognition of their services in the Land Army. He said: "It is healthful thing for the women to take hold of work to increase the food supply so that the soldiers may be adequately fed and our population ade- quately fed too" and that "nothing can be accomplished without women but it is. not necessary that they should have suffrage to accomplish it."
 Of what real value are the bras sards with the shield and the coat of arms of the State printed on them, so long as the women who wear them are denied the privilege of having a vote in the policy and in the government of the State?
 Yes, the women can go into the fields and till the soil, they can work with their hands-in time of world crisis such as this they do it eagerly and cheerfully- but are they to be

Think It Over

Uncle Joe Cannon in recent issue of the Saturday Evening Post tells of his experience with disloyal de- monstrations during the Civil War and
 he attributed the actions to the fact that so large part of the virile men were in the army that there was not the same restraint as there was before the soldiers went to the front" With so many of our virile men in the army today and so many alien votes in the
 ballot box, is not the constant agita- tion for the early passage of the suf- frage amendment sufficiently justified :?

denied all opportunity to work with their brains as we'll? Are they to continue subject class-a reserve force to be used only when and where the. male population see fit to permit them to serve, or are they to have voice in determining what their future activities are to be, what laws shall govern them, and who shall be elected to enforce the laws?
 How much more inspiring is the message from the British Prime Min ister, David Lloyd George. If it had not been for the splendid manner in which the women came forward !. |. I believe the Allies would have been unable to withstand the enemy at tacks of the last few months. For this service to our common cause hu-
 manity owes them unbounded grati-

 You are helping to create new earth for yourselves and your children" !" And in that new earth the women of England-voting women-win con tinue to play an important part. What

 Equipment Necessary
 Mrs. Nancy M. Schoonmaker will
 conduct citizenship classes in Fairfield
 County during August and Septem-
 Der. Stratford, South Norwalk,
 Ridgefield and Newton will be vis- ited.
 Mrs. Schoonmaker was recently
 asked why it is thought necessary to
 teach women citizenship before they
 have been granted the ballot. She re- piled, SEquipping women for citizen ship is like equipping soldiers with rifles. Both are war work. If we are to win this war we must have trained, properly armed soldiers at the front to fight for us, but we must see also that affairs at home are left in the hands of conscientious and patriotic citizens. The choice is between wo- men and slackers, and do not believe there are many men who would not prefer to have these home affairs in the hands of women rather than in the hands of men who have claimed exemption or otherwise refused to help win the war.
 "An Essential Psychological Element An interesting sidelight on the National Suffrage Campaign was fur respondence between President Will son and Senator Shields of Tennessee in which the president wrote the sena- tor that "much of the morale of this country and of the world will repose l in our sincere adherence to democratic principles-wil depend on the action which the senator takes in this now critically important matter" In an- other letter he characterized the pas
 sage of the suffrage amendment as "an essential psychological element in | the conduct of the war for democracy" !. In Missouri, the campaign to con vince the Senator that the State wants the Federal Suffrage Amendment passed, is receiving fresh impetus and support from Missouri's most promin- ent public men.
