WATERBURY LABOR TROlJBLE| COMES TO HEAD TO-DAY WHEN 5000 MEN DECIDE TO STRIKE|
Waterbury Brass, Benedict & Burnham, Randolph &
 Cowles and Chase Rolling Mill Are Plants Affected.

Waterbury, June 1S.-Labor trou- ble, which has been brewing for some time in Waterbury came to a head this morning when approxs lately 5000 men representing four different factories walked out on strike. The men include 2,500 from the Water- bury Brass and Benedict X Burn ham branches of the American Brass Co.,. four hundred from the plant of the Randolph X Cowles Co.,, and 23 from the plant of the Chase Rolling Mill.
 Absolutely No Disorder.
 The WalkOut occurred at 10 o'clock the time agreed upon by the strik- CTS. It was characterized by a com plete absence of disorder, the men washing up the same as under ordin- ary circumstances and quietly filing out of the factory gates. The men all carried their belongings, such as oVeralls, towels, etc., with them from the factories.
 Men Mostly Foreigners.
 The strikers for the most part are foreigners and are considered as un- skilled labor, being employed in roll Ing and wire mills and casting shops. The walkOut has resulted in the Randolph X COwles company's plant being temporarily closed The Amer lCan Brass Co., had not decided up to noon whether to close their factories or not. There were a number of men at the Waterbury Brass company's plant who did not walk out and who remained at the factory whose help CTS and not the company wanted them to continue work. The A men who walked out at the Chase Rolling Mill plant were employed in one small section of the plant. This fac tory is little affected by the walkout.
 Demands have been presented to the employers of the strikers which are identical with the demands sub mitted by the Ansonia strikers
 No Strike At ScovilIc Co.
 The Scoville Mfg. Co.,, employing $500 men recently restored the 10 per cent. wartime bonus for em- ployes and is not affected by the strike. Only 23 men out of 5000 employed in the three huge Chase plants walked out and no further trouble is anticipated in these factor les.

REDFIELD ALSO CRITICIZED
POStmastcr General Arraigned As Autocrat-Sccrctary of Commerce Blamed for Not Enforcing Anti-II- literacy Acts Among Scamcn.

Atlantic City, June 18.-A reSOlu- ton asking President Wilson to re- move Postmaster General Burleson was adopted unanimously today by the American Federation of Labor in convention here today.
 Postmaster Is Arraigncd.
 The resolution regarding the post master general after alIuding to President Wilson's message to con- gress relating to characterization of industry based on recognition of la bor's right to participate in decisions affecting it's welfare, declares that Mr. Burleson has pursued a labor policy in direct conflict with this enuncia- tOn of principle,' and that the post maSter-general characterized as silly the rights to collective bargaining." The resolution charges further that MT. BurlesOn has ruthlesSly invaded the rights of employees and has inter- fered, in defiance of law, with the proper funCtiOning of their Organi- zatiOns' and has "refused to recog- nize" labor's accredited representa- tiVes. MT. Burleson's labor policy has been "fastened upon every gov ernmental agency under his super vison' the resolution says 'in de- lldllCt ol tue "lStleS Ol IIlc DeODlc and in complete opposition to the ex- pressed words of President Wilson,"
 Service Is Demoralizcd.
 After declaring that MT. Burleson's archaic and autocratic attitude has resulted in demoralizcd service and confused and choked industrial pro- cesses, the memorial continues:
 Resolved, That the American Fed or9tjOn of 1 hOr convention sembled, speaking directly for 4,O0O,- 900 organized wage earners and firm in the belief that this reflects the sen time of the vast majority of the American people requests President Wilson immediately remove Mir. Bur leson from office.'
 RcdfieId Also Criticized.
 The federation adopted two reso- lutiOns having to do with the mer- chant marine. One asked the house committee on merchant marine and fisheries to investigate alleged fail ure by Secretary of Commerce Red field to enforce seamens act provi- sions aimed against illiteracy among crews of ocean-soing vessels leaving American ports.
 Bills Arc Denounced.
 The other memorial denounced bills introduced by Senator Calder and Representative Gould providing for repeal of certain clauses in the seamen's act relating to wages on Am merican vessels These bills were declared to be hostile to the develop ment of American sea power and to serve the interests of European and Asiatic shipoWners. who under the seamens act as it stands are, the resolution says, being compelled to meet American shipoWners in equal competition on the sea.
