Bridgeport very recently. There have been insidious remarks passed to dis credit, if possible, every Grand Lodge officer that has visited Bridgeport. This is part of propaganda en- gineered by Lavit, his policy being to discredit everything in the nature of the laws of the organization, and the men who have been selected to in force them. We cannot temporize or compromise with a condition of this kind.
 Because of his actions in this direc- ton, 1t has been necessary to sus- pend him from membership, official notice of which has been given to the proper officials of Lodge No. 30.
 It is our purpose if Lodge No. 30, as an orga nization. will not obey the laws of our organization, that there Is only one alternative left and that Is to revoke the charter of the local lodge. I trust you will understand just what that means. It will prob ably mean that the good standing membership of many men may be in volved, but the total disregard of our laws on the part of the members in Bridgeport requires us to take this stand, if we are to maintain the pres tige as an International organization, and at the same time see that our constitution is obeyed.
 If it becomes necessary to revoke the charter of this lodge, we will use every reasonable effort to see that the individual interest of those mem bers who are agreeable to abide by the laws of the organization Is pro- tected.
 We have to take whatever action may be necessary to preserve our laws in the City of Bridgeport. I trust you will understand the ser iousness of this situation and not al- tow bowling mob to influence your best interest, such as has been done very recently but that you will assert yourself as a member of the Inter national Association of Machinists, that 1t is your purpose to retain mem bership in the organization. If it is your purpose to follow the leadership, and be part of, a bowling mob with no semblance of order, with no re- gard of the rights of others, or the laws of ahe organization, we can only say to you that while we regret this condition, we will not turn aside from our policy.
 Give this serious thought and at tend the next meeting of Lodge No 30 and decide this question once and for all. If the charter Is to remain in Bridgeport, you must do your part and see that the laws of our organi- zation are maintained.
 With best wishes, I remain
 Fraterna1ly yours,
 P. c. DAWSON,
 General Secretary-Treasurer

sects sientioned in the Bible, has been regarded as the cradle of free Ma sonry. The Essenes were mystics with q love for the search for truth, and had several means of recognition as have the Free MasonS of today. The Fraternity - as now organized dates from 1717, when the four old lodges in London met and formed a Grand Lodge. As taught in the An cient Mysteries, Free Masonry today teaches purity, morality, immortality, and the existence of q Supreme Being. The most illustrious names in Gov ernment, Literature, Science, and the Liberal Arts in Europe and the United States, have been Free Masons.

ly protect the interest of the members, that the business agent, Samuel La wit of Bridgeport, should be removed from office immediately. We be- lieve that the local members have d right to expect that men selected by them shall see that the laws of the organization are respected.
 It has been common knowledge re- cently that the activities of Samuel Lavit have not been to the best in- terest of the members of the Interna- tional Association of Machinists. l desire that you ask yourself the ques- ton: Why the decrease in member ship of the organization, and why the decrease in the rates paid in Bridgeport to the members of our or sanitation?
 After a thorough investigation, l visited Bridgeport, approached Sam uel Lavit and laid the facts before him, telling him that because of the above conditions it was necessary to remove him from the office as busi- ness agent I presented a copy of a letter to him that was later laid before the regular meeting of Lodge No. 90. He immediately assumed the attitude of disregard of our laws. Statements were made by him on the floor that have no foundation in fact, and efforts were made by him to dis credit as far as possible any action by the Grand Lodge officers. st,.+ E
 The lodge. failing to take action as required in this instance, it became my duty to give him the direct in formation by letter, with the reasons for his removal a copy of which he has in his possession at this time. This action on my part was immedi- ately followed by a cession movement Dn the part of Lavit and his follow CTS.
 The question for you to decide in this issue. is, will you follow Lavit, or will you obey the laws of the Inter- national Association of Machinists? It is to be regretted that these con- ditions arise at this particular time, but as the organization has respect for it's laws, there is no alternative left to the International organization except to protect the interest of the individual member.
 I would ask you to attend the meetings of Lodge No. 30, and do whatever may be necessary to pro- tect your interest in the organiza- ton. We are fully determined on a policy that will mean a clean and straightforward organization in the City of Bridgeport. cooperating with other trades. looking toward the so- iution of the industrial problem, and we will not be party to any move ment that is not clean.

 An active demand on the potato market resulted in a tendency to- wards higher prices this morning. Supplies of "spuds"- have decreased greatly during the past two days Rainy weather which has hindered digging, and the fact that higher prices can be obtained in other cities. has been largely responsible for the falling off in receipts on the Farmers Market Long Island potatoes sold at $2.25 to s2.50 a bushel, according to the quality and grade. Native stock was in demand at s2.25 to s2.35 per busheL
 The first arrival of the Evergreen sweet corn, a very popular, late varie- ty, indicated that the season for early corn Is rapidly passing. Many grow CTS are now harvesting their second pickings of early corn, the ears of which are usually smaller than the first pickings." This grade of corn sold mostly at s1.75 to s2 per 100 this morning, or 21 to 24c per dozen. Fancy corn sold at s2.25 to s2.5o per 100 ears, or 27 to soc a dozen.

It is predicted by members of the unions in this city that the firing of Sam Lavit as n member of the Ma ohinists' Union by the Grand Lodge will cause the greatest split in the ranks that has ocurred since the Amalgamated Garment Workers se- ceeded from the Federation of Labor and organized an Independent union.
 Some members of the Machinists' Union have received n letter from the Secretary Treasurer of the Grand Lodge, l.. c. Davison, in which he in- inmates that the endorsement of Lavit by the strikers generally, whom he designates as "a bowling mob" will be followed by the revoking of the charter of Local 30. and states that those members who stay by the Grand Lodge will be protected. Davi- son threatens that if the members show that they desire to follow the leadership of Lavit that the Grand
 Lodge will not turn from It's policy. Following is the letter:
 To the Members of tirc International Association of Nachlnists, Located . in the City of Bridgeport, Conn. . Dear Sirs and Brothers:
 am writing you this personal com

 dcrstand the seriousness of the situa- ton prevailing fin Bridgeport at this time. Very probably the proper so- 1ution of the problem will determine your connection with the Internation- al Association of Machinists.
 We have tried every means known to us, under our laws, to have the membership in Bridgeport guided along the lines as laid down in our | Constitution. On several occasions | in the past, the Constitution was vio- lated, strikes were called without having submitted them to the Grand l Lodge, and the Grand Lodge was blamed for not paying benefits.
 The membership of Lodge No. 30 | has steadily decreased until at this | time your membership is approxim- nteiy 1,5OO members Strikes have | again taken place, without the same being submitted to the Grand Lodge for approval. which in itself. is vio- 1ation of the Constitution.
 As International officers, we must | see that the Constitution is obeyed. | It is to be regretted that the mem bership in Lodge 30 has had such little regard for the laws that were | made by themselves. Instances have taken place where the members of our <rganization involved in these con- troversies have not been given the op- portunity of casting their vote. as is required by the Constitution
 The laws of our organization. as well | as the prestige of the association, is at | stake fin a condition of this kind. Ar ter thorough , consideration of the matter. 1t was decided that to proper
