Highly Successful Banquet.

The banquet which was rendered to the delegates and guests at the Hotel Garde, Monday evening, was one of the most successful ever held within the history of the organization. The menu, while Hooverized to the extent of substitution of chicken for meat, was an excellent one, while the ser vice was all that could be desired. The tables were prettily decorated with flowers and a handsome display of the stars and stripes added to the attractive appearance of the big din ing hall, which was completely filled.
 James F. Plunkett made most ac- ceptable toastmaster and the speak CTS of the evening included William J. Sullivan, president of the State Council Robert McNeeley, first vice president; Thomas M. Guerin of Bos- ton, a member of the general execu- tive board; Hon. David E. FitzGerald, mayor of New Haven; George F. Mordecai of New Haven, president of the Connecticut Federation of Labor ;

 Other guests present. who were pre- vented from being heard because of the arrival of midnight, the official closing hour, were James Maroney, vice president of the New Haven Trades Council, and John Egan of Bridgeport, sixth vice president of the Connecticut Federation of Labor.
 All the speeches were interesting and much information of value to the carpenters and organized labor in general was gleaned from them. Dur ing the dinner an orchestra supplied an excellent concert and the evening as whole was most thoroughly en- joyed by all present, the success achieved being a great credit to the committee of arrangements which had 1t in charge

RED.IETTER DAY
 FOR TRADE UNIONS.

It Is q fact that the trades unions which have been most ob- servant of the two-sided nature of collective bargaining have been the most successful ones and almost invariably the only successful ones. It can fairly be said that the great union of coal miners made of the day on which it voted to stand by it's voluntary agreements, moved thereto by the weight of the covenant rather than by the ex- traordinary critical nature of the employment at this time, a red- letter day in the calendar of American trade unionism.-New York World.

 Labor unions Of New York changed their minds about demanding the usual higher scale for overtime work during the coalless weeks. Employers offer ed to operate extra hours daily so wage earners would lose nothing by the shutdown.
