Gov. Coolidge. product of Vermont and
Its traditional combination OF shrewd-
ness and parsimony in the use of words,
remained outwardly imperturbable when
the heat of commentary and advice beat
about his sanctum in the State House.
In the forenoon he delivered himsek OF
a brief but forceful indictment of the
strikers. He called them deserters. He
asserted that they should not be REIN
stated; that they should pay a price
for this unwarranted neglect of public
duty.
His words were nung broadcast by
Bostonians, pleased at this firm stand.
sympathy for the policemen had
dwindled as rapidly as the lords of
misrule had gathered It, IL II had ex-
listed at ALL Even the loyal wearers OF
the Anticipated helmets, which have so
long distinguished the Boston cop from
his contemporaries elsewhere and ele-
waited him so many inches above his
fellow men that his approach Is as
visible as the most critical crook could
wish, spared not the lash.

arguments for arbitration of the police

A. F. L. The laws say ynequivocally
that the Boston policeman cannot join

The flrmness of the Governor was the

enforced by the cartridges belted at
their waists.

clared, the infection of his even, crisp

James Henry Thomas Asserts
His Archangel Explanation
Is insufficient.

GLASGOW. Sept. 1.-THE Trade Union
Congress in session here completed to-
day the ost important business Of
its programme with the adoption Of a
resolution providing for the calling OF
special conference of British captains
Of labor to consider the form Of action
to be resorted to should the Govern
gress for the repeal of the conserip-
ton law and to withdraw British troops
from Russia, resolutions demanding
which the congress previously had
adopted.
The belief was expressed to-day in
many quarters that these demands
would be given unsatisfactory attention
by the Government. 1t was pointed out
that the calling of a special congress
to determine the action necessary should
the Government not meet labor's re-
qulrements would place upon the con-
gress the necessity clearly to define its
attitude respecting direct action In po-
liticsl matters This decision was
lodged at yesterdays session by the
parliamentary strategists.
The resolution demanding State own
ership of mines, pledges the congress to
convene a special session to determine
the form the proceedings shall take.
A slashing indictment of Winston
Spencer Churchill, the Secretary for
War for his declaration OF yesterday re-
garding the delay in the evacuation OF
north Russia by British forces, was de-
livered by James Henry Thomas, Labor
member of Parliament
Secretary Churchill, said Mr.. Thomas
had not answered the recent indict-
ment by Lieutenant-Colonel Sherwood
Kelly, a volunteer officer In the North
Russian relief force. that British lives
were being thrown away In the Aroh-
angel region, but on the contrary the
Secretary had threatened to punish the
Colonel.
! The Glasgow Labor Congress, and
particularly the project for nationalist
ton of the mines, are commented upon
extensively by the press. Dealing with
the naturalization plan. the Manchester
Guardian says that no matter how
greatly the interests of the workers
might be affected by naturalization,
they must not oppose the will of Parlia-
ment Direct action is characterized as
a complete denial of democratic govern
ment
The Westminster Gdsette says that
IL the miners challenge Parliament by
a general strike the question of nation
alization will be swamped In the more
serious issue, in which the miners as
suredly will be beaten.
The Pail Mall Gazette asserts that
90. 000,0 900 Parliamentary electors win
refuse to be led by manipulators of the
vote at the Glasgow Congress.

No sympathy for CUTTERS.

With the same directness he disposed

right to the place he once held as guar
dian Of public safety. II do not know
Of any condition under which the men

he added: That is entirely in the
hands of the Police Commissioner of
Boston"
The persistence of many efforts to ex-
tract from Gov Coolidge more enlighten-
ment on that matter elected from him
only the remark that no doubt the At
torDey General of Massachusetts would
be the authority who could decide. 1t
was not within the province of the Gov
ernor to say.
As the fading afternoon light en-
c1oached further and further upon the
carpet of his Office the Governor pa
tiently endured the questions of those
who sought his final word. Repeatedly
he rephrased 1t.
1T is for judicial determination, this
question of whether the policemen ought
to be dismissed summarily," was his
va ledictory summary of II.
But those bitterest in denunciation
were quick to show leniency for the
members of the force whose dereliction
might have been largely coerced and for

Lawbreakers Now in Fear.

Even while the Governor sat In his
Office and spoke strong words that re-
enforced the morale of Bostons popu-
lace and did perhaps as much as the
show of militia to put fear in the license
infiamed breasts. the quality OF fear was
shifting from the lawablding to the law
breaking. 1t was chiefly because the
Inter were in no mood to tolerate the
former. Boston, trembling at the pros
pect of a general strike, grew intrepid
when that danger passed and the real
weakness of the threat appeared.
Violence was frightened away. But
for few instances of rowdyism, pos
sibly the normal amount, Boston re-
gained to-day it's poise and It's COM
placent tranquility. A few windows
v ere splintered. Dice was played not
SO covertly as police surveillance would
compel. But murder. highway robbery,
assault and battery had betaken them
selves away.
Not only did the quicly mobilized
volunteer policemen step instantly into
the shoes abandoned by the profess
SIGNALS but they won the frank admira-
ton of the crowds. People did not
gather in large numbers, exactly, be-
cause the grim militiamen would say
Come now. move on" And into the
Bostonian drawl had crept a fibre which
those who heard did not mistake. Those
who could only see caught the CLINT
of the guardian eye. They moved
lively" as the car conductor would say.
Traffic was flowing to-day as swiftly
and as silently along the streets under
the gesticulatory semaphores OF the sub
stitute traffic cop as under the white
gloved calisthenics of the original him
self. Indeed, Gov. Coolidge's secretary
refused to be quoted, but limited strongly
that the substitutes dlScernible from the
State House had the bulge on anything
hitherto known by those present
Many Of the volunteers were automo-
bile owners. Thus psychologists might
explain their success in dealing with

 Broad Street House.

Quarter" gas meters are believed to have caused the death of three Bridgeporters during last night. two of the men being found dead in the same he'd at the roomfng house at 1461 State street, conducted by Mr and Mrs Joseph Hefernan, at 10:2O o'clock this morning. The victims were Mike F'itzgibmons, 45 years old, a polisher employed at the Bryant Electric Co.,, and Edward O'Neil, 42 years old, a blacksmith. The third man whose death was caused by asphyxiation was James NormoIie, who roomed with a Mrs. Duffy at 599 Broad street.
 When Dr. J. F. Keegan appeared at the State street house in answer to a. call this morning, he found both F'itzgibboEs and O>Nen dead. The doctor questioned Mir. Heffernan, who said he had not seen either of his roomers since last Monday, and had not given them a thought until he de- tected the odor of gas coming from their room this morning. He said he found both men in bed, and a nasty examination convinced him they were beyond medical aid. He called the Emergency hospital, leaving the room in the same state he had found1it.
 Dr. Keegan in his investigation learned the house Is equipped with a quarter meter. and he believes it pos sible this contributed to the mems death. The physician found the gas turned on half way. It has been proven that with the use of the quar- ter meter, a low light left in a room. may go out during the night, and while the gas coming through the pipe is insufficient to maintain a light, the poisonous carbon monoxide f1- tering through the tube is enough to cause death to all those who inhale the fumes. According to medical men it affects the red corpucIes of the blood.
