Conn. Electric Mfg. Go. Will Open Doors Next
 Monday Morning.

The Connecticut Electric Mfg. Co. announced this morning that they would reopen their factory on Con- necticut avenue Monday morning at the usual hour, lat the request of a number of the strikers at their fac tory who had called on them and stated that they could not afford to remain idle any longer.
 This factory had closed it's doors two weeks ago after a part of their employees had walked out, demanding an increase in wages and a A hour week.
 The strikers at the Atlas and Acme Shear Co. were advised this after noon to return to work as the com pany had agreed to an increase of 10 per cent. and promise to make a fur ther advance on September 15.
 The freight handlers met last night to perfect an organization and draw up demands These men are not af- fected by the strike of the repair men at the railroad shops but if the strike continue 1t will seriously affect them
 The committee of the Trolleyme s Union are still conferring with the of f1cials of the Connecticut Company and a decision whether to strike will

Boston, Aug. 9-While slight improvement in the Federated Railroad Shopmen's strike has been reported in the Middle West, most divisional points showed today that the strikers have refused to return to work at the request of the President pending a settlement of the wage dispute.
 The condition in New England in fact hourly grows more serious. While 1t was reported that 10000 returned to their shops in the middle West, the ranks of the strikers in New Englan q were added to today. In Valley Falls, Rhode Island. 200 men working in the N. Y., N. H. & Hartford shops quit. They included wrecking crews and mechanics.
 Limited embargoes on freight were continued on nearly all the roads, but the most pronounced regulations in- cidental to the strike were on the New England lines.

START LEGAL FIGHT AGAINST LAVIT:
 LOCAL STRIKE STATUS UNCHANGED
New Lodge Opposing Lavit to be Known As
 Local No. 116.

A new lodge to be known as local No. 116 will be instituted in this city by the officers of the Grand Lodge to take the place of local No. 30. This local voted last night to continue to have Samuel Lavit act as Business Agent until the appeal which is to be taken from the action of the Grand Lodge in firing Lavit out of the un- ion and rem owing him as business agent of the local.
 Legal proceedings to prevent local No. 30 from occupying the old head quarters at 10S7 Broad street and an injunction against Lavit acting as Business Agent and busting his friends from office in the local, are in preparation.
 With only two votes in the mega tive the two thousand members of local No. 30 decided last night at Co., lonia1 hall to have Lavit continue to act as their Business Agent.
 The meeting was the largest ever held by the Machinists in this city and at times the denunciation of the action of the officers of the Grand Lodge was so strong that the speak CTS were brought to order with great difficulty by the presiding officer.

TWO LICENSED
 TO SELL MILK
 BY COMMISSION

Members of the City Medical Milk Commission have issued two licenses to distributors in the city to sell cer- tified milk.
 This was announced at a meeting of the committee held this norning g when reorganization was completed for the coming year.
 Dr. Fessenden L. Day was name as chairman; City Health Officer pr. w. H. Brown was named as secretary and the other mem bers of the com mission are: Dr. J. H. Beaudry, Dr. H. E. Warehouse and pr. c. V. Cal win.
 The program for the coming year was mapped out and includes a monthly inspection by two commis- sioners of all registered dairies. Re- quirements for a license to sell certi fled milk are that cattle must have withstood the tuberculin test given by a veterinary, representative of the commission. all dairy employees must pass a physical examination monthly and laboratory samples of the milk must be taken twice weekly.
 Public revocation of licenses is the penalty for failure to comply with the regulations and to meet the re- QuirementA

Embargo
 May ZZall
 Industry
Railroad Shopmen's Strike May Have Serious Result
 in Bridgeport.

If the present freight embargo caused by the railroad shopmen's strike continues for one week, there will be no industry in Bridgeport"
 This statement was made this morning. by Meigs B. Russell assistant secretary of the Bridgeport Chamber of Commerce, and seems to ba the general concensus of opinion. Two days regular shipments have been unmoved for the most part, by the To- cal freight office, and a longer tie up will most certainly result in af1e stoppage of industry owing to the lack of shipping facilities.
 The chamber of commerce has not been asked as yet to take any steps to alleviate the threatened paralysis of freight, but the organization will probably be asked to act if the situa- ton becomes more acute.
 At the local freight office of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co.,, it was stated that no considerable amount of freight has been held up by the embargo. The usual number of shipments have been curtailed to some extent but freight Is still being moved Ac- cording to the railroad officials there will be serious trouble if the strike is settled within the next few days.
 The Bridgeport Manufacturers as- sociation has not been asked to take up the embargo matter as yet, and this is taken as an indication that local manufacturers have not suffer- ed greatly through the two days sus- pension of full service. George S. Hawley, secretary of the Manufa ctur- CTS association stated this morning that he did not believe Bridgeport industries would be tied up unless the embargo is continued for a number Of days.

5000 HAMS TO GO ON SALE AT FIRE HOUSES
Purchasers Will Be Limited To One Ham
 Apiece.

Sixty thousand pounds of ham, or approximately 5000 hams, will be put on sale in Bridgeport at 32 cents a pound during the coming week and Brtdgeporters will be allowed to buy one ham each. This was the an- nouncement of Mayor Wilson this morning following a conference with Messrs. Turner, Garlick and Sherman Of the Municipal Food Committee.
 A further conference will be held this afternoon with Fire Chief John son at which time the details of the distributing organization through the city fire houses will be completed. It has been decided, before this meeting. however, to limit sales to those from the houses and unless such events as happened in Newark, where muni- clpal food distributors were not given time to take the products from the trucks, occur here, the f1remen will pass the hams over their counters. No hams will be cut and no further guarantee will go with them than that they have been government and city inspected before purchase

No Contract For Laying Of
 Trolley Tracks This Month
QUESTION RELATING TO POSITION OF TRACKS CAUSE OF DELAY-MUST AWAIT MEETING
 OF COUNCIL TO BE HELD SEPT 9

No contracts for laying tracks on the Plaza will be made by the Con- necticut Co. until the hearing Is held September by the Common Council committee, which is to pass upon the plans for special track work at State and Main streets.
 Manager J. 6. Goodwin of the local division of the Connecticut Co. stated today that no contracts could be awarded until all questions regarding layout of tracks were definitely set- tied.
 A plan for tho layout at State and Main streets was submitted to thu Common Council recently but was re- Jected because 1t was stated tha, the erragn ements called for the taking away of Q portion of the sidewalk ot the northeast corner. The new plan which the Connecticut Co. engineers will submit will obviate this difficulty and 1t is probable filat 1t will be ap- proved ioy the committee.

Alleging that Ernest Cozza of this city did not make good as a bonds man for Leo P. Brown, charged with carrying concealed weapons, the state of Connecticut has brought suit against Cozza for $400 and has at tached his property at Broad and Prospect streets.
 Brown was arrested in January, 1917, and after being sentenced in the City Court to 60 days in jail, took an appeal to the Criminal Common Pleas Court, which was allowed un- der bonds of s250. Cozza became surety for Browns appearance in the Common Pleas Court but the accused was not on hand when his case waa called Cozza did not pay the bond, the state claims, and therefore the present suit, which is returnable to the September term of the Common Pleas Court, was started

 Suggestion by the President for federal licensing of all corpora tions engaged in Intersca,e Commerce and for extension of the food control law met with the greatest opposition in Congress siona1 circles. Many of the op- ponents of the League of Ma tions in the Senate criticised the stress laid by the President on early ratification of the peace treaty, some of them, including Chairman Lodge and Senator Harding, Ohio, of the Foreign Relations Committee, declaring there was no connection between ratification of the peace treaty and the cost of living.
