N, N, SHOPMEN
 WOULD ACCEPT
 WILSON'S PLAN

Boston, Aug. 1+Trafffc conditions on the New England railroads after today will depend largely on the count of ballots cast by mechanics and shopmen who struck last Thurs day and Friday for increased wages. Strike leaders said the trend of sen timent on the question of returning to work had been made uncertain by an apparent division of opinion between employees of the Boston & Maine railroad and those of the N. Y., N. 1T. & H.
 Boston & Maine strikers. who voted early in the week. were said to oppose going back until their grievances had been adjusted. but there wore some indications that the New Haven men favored the accept ance of President Wilson's recom- mendat1on for an immediate return.
 Railroad managers reported the freight--s1tuation as somewhat inn proved by the modthcatfons of en- bargoes made effective yesterday. They said that TO per cent of ac-' cepted freight was boinE moved promptly but that new restrictions should be expected becauss of the depreciation of rolling stock.

STORM CREATESHAv0C WITH SHIPS IN SOUND.
 SIX BARGES ARE SUNK
Women and Children With Dogs, Cats and Pigs Are Taken Off Sinking Boats Which Were Carrv- ing Sand Cargoes to Bridgeport.

Twelve persons-six men, four women and two children, the personnel of six sand and gravel barges enroute from Huntington, L. l., to Doherty Brothers in this city, in tow of the Goodwin Gallagher tug Phoenix were rescued last night, when the boats, tossed for several hours in the high sea of Long Island sound, lost the battle with the waves and went to the bottom.
 The tug made a haven in Stamford harbor after the most narrowing ex Perience, during which 1t was expect ed that the lives of 30 persons on the bargeS and the tug would be lost. Fortune rather than fitness to stand the storm saved all hands and when they reached Stamford early this morning, all were worn out from the tasks that had been overcome.
 The six barges left Huntington late yesterday afternoon and no serious When half way across the Sound, a stiff wind that finally attained. a ve- locity of nearly so miles an hour came from off the shore and with it a high sea was stirred up.
 The barge captain had no choice about which direction he would take and headed for shore against the wind. After a short time it was apparent that the entire convoy was in peril and It was decided to take the crews off the barges and if neces- sary cut loose from them. It meant in two cases that women were forced to jump from one sea tossed barge

Then he started to devour the ordinarily edible sand wich.
 But Mir. Crab objected and when Richards attempted to swallow the first mouthfu1, the crab got busy, bit ing Richards throat.

BELIEVES STRIKES IN
 THIS CITY CAUSED BY
 LOW SCALE OF WAGES
Henry Ford Believes Indus trial Unrest in This City is Caused By Failure of Manufacturers to Pay Workers Proper Wage.
Special to The Times)

Danbury, August 14-The industrial unrest in Bridgeport and other sections of the State is due to the fact that employ CTS do not pay their employees enough money to live on, is the opinion of Henry Ford, who was this morning interviewed by the Bridgeport Times spe- cial correspondent.
 The manufacturer further declared that no skilled mechanic should be paid less than S7 day for his labor and unskilled mechanics sh ould re- ceive at least SC a. day for their work.
 "I think if the Bridgeport manu- facturers and other leaders in in dustry. especially at this trying period were to pay this scale of wages much of the industrial unrest would disap- pear." said the automobile king.
 Tn my factories" he continued, ''rnen are paid a. wage which allows them to live decently and enjoy the pleasures of life. You ask why the Underwood Typewriter help in Hart ford should striker assume be- cause they are unable, in view of the high cost of the necessities of life, to live decently on the wages they ob- tain"
 The Times correspondent informed Ford, who appeared halo and hearty, his skin well bronzed that his libel suit had been given to the jury in Mount Clemens, Michigan, but evoked no comment
 Ford who Is accornpan nied by Thos. A Ellison and other friends, left the city at 1o:30 this morning for New York. In view of the stormy weather last night they spent the night in the Hotel Green, changing their intention to spend the night at some suitable camping spot along the road
