A well attended meeting is expected
tomorrow evening at eight o'clock at
the chamber of commerce when the
merchants of the city will gather to
discuss the recommendation of the
uniform hours committee for hours
of closing during 1919. The closing
schedule is only a recomme ndation
and the committee will listen to any
suggestions of change providing, of
course, there is an indication that it
would be for the interests of the ma
jority of the merchants in New Brit
ain. The open meetings of all groups
and this meeting will provide ample
opportunity for full discussion and no
individual or group of stores will be
coerced to fall into line. 1t is left for
the individual honor and business
pride of the retailers to accept and
live up to the decision of the majority.
In this way only can the interests of
the city as a whole be brought to-
gether. What builds for the growth
and progress of the city will in just
the same proportion help each indi-
Vidual merchant.

According to the report of the bureau of

SPEAKING LOCALLY.

But one Interpretation is to be placed upon
the result of the election of delegates to repre-
sent this county in the coming state constitu-
tional convention. It Is that the labor ele-
ments of the community are much better or
ganized and much more alert to their civic
responsibilities than are the business and pro-
fessional interests.
According to the returns four out of five
Of the so-called labor slate" are among the
winners and two more are essentially labor can
ddates. The man who heads the entire list is
the redoubtable Jerry Howard, whose political
stock-in-trade is championship of the demands
of labor. 1t 10 plain enough to any one who
analyses the situation that, if the labor slate
had been filled up with Jerry Howard to head
it and to pull it along, complete delegation of
twelve would have been put across.
What Is the answerl We do not depreciate the
strong showing made by the labor group, but
on the contrary offer congratulations which sue
cess is entitled to. But at the same time let
the business elements take warning and wake
up to the situation. An endorsement signed by
names that would ordinarily carry preponder-
ant weight with the great body of the voters
will not serve to elect the favored candidates
unless il is backed up by organization and
active work to bring out to the polls at least as
large proportion of voters as respond to the
labor appeal
The labor delegates elected to the conven-
ton have an opportunity--they can by standing
for sane measures strengthen their position or
by espousng the freaks and fads of government
and class radieaism forfeit public esteem. This
great metropolitan city is made up of people Of
all occupations nationalities and beliefs, and its
voice in the constitutional convention should be
for broad, liberal liberty-guaranteein true
American principles.

What Tuesdays Elections Mean.

One significant fact stands prominently out
beyond all others in connection with the "off-
year" elections held on Tuesday. Wherever
the lines were sharply drawn between the
forces of law and order and those of the "revo-
luton" the latter were overwhelmed
In Massachusetts,, where Governor Calvin
Coolidge was candidate for reelection, stand
ing squarely on the principle of law and order
as laid down by him in the Boston police
strike, his majority enormously increased
Even in Boston, the home of Honey Fitz," and
Congressman Galavan, who has so persistently
catered to the mob, the democratic plurality
was cut in two The lesson is clear. Ameri-
cans are not ready to abandon the solid anchor
age of their institutions and go floating aim
lessly about on the ocean of bolshevism Gov
ernor Coolidge was opposed by all the forces
of disorder, of whatever stripe or creed, and in
his triumphant return to Office may Be seen the
determination of sane voters to hold fast to the
fundamentals of our national life His stand
against mob rule as exemplifed in the police
strike has been endorsed, and Massachusetts,
retains its proud place in the front rank of those
commemorative wherein reasonable liberty is
nationally exercised
dHIldny uc1edt III new I OrR IS not OF
such Importance, for it is brought about on
local issues largely and will have no especial
effect on the nation, beyond the added proof it
gives that the great machine is not entirely
invincible. The socialists did not realize their
boasts of an increased vote, and are compelled
to swallow what to ordinary minds would be
defeat and disappointment.
From the viewpoint of politics, the result of
the election is all in favor of the republicans.
Kentucky chose republican governor, al
though the democratic candidate made his cam
paign on League of Nations platform. In
other states, except New Jersey, the repub-
licans gain in material ways. Ohio not only
gave prohibition an overwhelming endorse
ment, but ratified by popular vote the amend
ment to the national constitution. Socialism
and radicalism makes sorry, showing wher-
ever a test was had. 1t was great day for
Americans.
President Wilson has congratulated Gov
ernor Coolidge on his victory, holding rightly
that the outcome in Massachusetts, will
strengthen public officers in their stand against
mob domination. Law and order must prevail

Settlement Up to the Miners.

The Department of Justice displays COM
mendabls frmness IN It's refusal to dismiss
injunction proceedings against the miners - 4
condition to calling off the strike. Just why
the government should be asked to surrender
to labor organization in this critical matter is
not clear. Having begun the proceedings, it is
only proper to carry through the process, to
determine if justification exists. On the other
hand, far more commendable course is open
to the miners. They can without any sacrifice
recede from their unreasonable position, reopen
negotiations for a wage scale, and in the mean
time produce the coal the country needs while
earning the wages the men require. Winter
will fall on the coal miner as heavily as on any
other citizen;, he and his family need food and
fuel, clothing and shelter, just the same as
others. No question Of principle is at stake, nor
can anything material be lost to the men by a
resumption Of work pending settlement. 1t
is possible to prolong the strike to point of
exhaustion with all the attending suffering, but
settlement must come some time. The in
junction proceeding is not Of especial Inn
portance, unless the government should recede,
which the attorney general says he will not.
The strike can not be properly ended that way.

body. There are two methods used:
On receiving the ball the
punter should be 10 or II yards back
of the center, should receive the
ball at the waist. Step back, then
step backward with the left foot
then take a long step with the left
for a kick.
2. A short step with the right,
then a long step with the left and
kick. The long step with the left
foot Is necessary to get powerful
kick.
The first method is the better, as
it is quicker and the kicker does not
approach the defense.
Points in Competition.
A study of wind conditions should
be made. If punting with the wind,
kick high to enable the wind to car
ry the ball further down the field.
When against strong wind the
ball should be driven low. -.
The punter should try to place the
punt far away from the best handler
of punts as possible. He should
regulate his punt in speed and height
to suit the speed Of the ends. 1t is
we'll to punt the ball out of bounds
when you can get the full distance.

BLAINE For Coal Shortage.

Ravenna, Neb., Nov. ITO the
Editor Of The Bee: If you will al
low me a small amount of your
space, I would like to express my
view on the coal shortage and the
strike situation.
In the first place there would be
no coal shortage nor no strike
either IL our administration had
handled this as they should. In the
very first place, miners all over the
country were allowed but two or
three days a week. All spring and
summer when there were plenty of
cars available, and plenty Of rail-
road men, on short time also, and
our president and his coal and rail-
way administration were aware OF
this and allowed the operators to
handle things so we could not get
all tho coal we wanted unless IT
should get cheap by winter. II the
miners had worked six days a week
coal would have been so plentiful by
now that IL the miners had wanted
TO strike no one would care, conse-
uuently no strike. This strike Is
caused directly by the coal operators
and the shiftless management of our
administration Shiftfess Is what 1t Is
and has been since Wilson has been
allowed to dictate to every one re-
gardless of their political opinions.
Wake up G.. o. P. Now Is your time
to straighten out this muddle and
have the support of the farmers and
all the laboring class IL you are for
good clean government. Never mind
the goose that laid the golden egg.
They have their nest all feathered.
And decent government will take
care of them and will protect the
classes Yours for change IN ad-
ministration at once,
A. B. HAGEMAN.
