H. 7. Bradley Gives
Books To Library

Mr.. Henry T. Bradley, of the
"Sons of Delaware" who has al
ready presented to the College
Library 500 books on History
Fiction, Essays, and Natural
Science, has agreed to give 100
more books which are needed at
once. A list of the books desired
is now in Mr.. Bradley's hands, and
it is expected that they will soon
be received.
Mr.. Bradley hopes that two of
his friends, both of whom are
"Sons of Delaware" will each pre-
sent to the Library 100 books.
These books, like those which Mr..
Bradley has given, will be of great
value to the departments of the
| College. Additional lists of the
books most needed at the present
time have been sent to Mr.. Bradley.
The number of books thus added
to the Library by Mr.. Bradley and
his friends will make a valuable
addition to the present equipment

Through the years just past, our
people have been blessed with the
privileges to serve and sacrifice
for those causes of right and JUS
tice as we, in our honor, conceived.
Those principles, so courageously
defended, stand today triumphant.
In the glory of that achievement,
we have lived and revelled during
the past year. The God Of Nations
has been good to America. But
with this Glory of Victory, there
comes an obligation of citizenship
that with our thanksgiving for
blessings received, there needs to
come a reconstruction for the du-
ties that attend. In the unrest of
mind and confusion of action, in
cident to the war, we should sense
seriously that our ideals of govern
ment conceived nobly by our faith
ers, and defended successfully by
our sons, should, by our thought
and energy, be ennobled gloriously
for those who follow us. The year
before us, if we live true to the
thoughts and events of the past,
will demand our best thought and
|consecrated energy. Democracy is
no longer an American theory, but
a world-acknowledged fact. And
democracy in its truest conception
means advance in all those activi-
ties tending to the increased well
fare of society. Holding this view,
our tasks are we'll and practically
defined.
For these blessings received, for
these opportunities accorded, and
in keeping with custom and official
proclamation, l, John G. Townsend,
Jr., Governor of the State of Della
ware, do designate

Naval Observations
Given To Library

Hon. Albert F. Polk of George
town, Delaware, a graduate OF
Delaware College in the class OF
1889, has presented to the Library
a set of the Oberservations of the
United States Naval Observatory.
The set is bound in dark green
half morocco. 1t contains the data
from observations made through
long period of years upon the
sun, the moon, and various planets.
Among these data are some very
interesting observations made with
nine-inch solar transit. The ma
terial is of immense value for re-
search work along scientific lines,
The gift of these books by Mr..
Polk is another indication of the
increasing cooperation which. the

AGAINST PLAN FOR MILITARISM
 IN HIGH SCHOOL 
New Haven NFa5Aznists' Lodge Passes Resolutions of Protest
 Against Recommendations.
URGE ABANDONMENT
Students Readiness to Act as Strike Breakers Referred to as
 One Strong Objection.

Opposition to military training in the New Haven High school developed at the regular meeting of Elm Lodge, No. 42O, International Association of Ma chlnists, at its regular meeting, last week, and the following resolution was passed with instructions to- the secre- tary to forward a copy of the same to The Connecticut Labor Press for pub 1ication:
 "Whereas, It is reported that the board of education, upon the initiative of Mayor FitzGerad1 and prominent persons of the city who are vital1y in terested in the project, are preparing to introduce military training in the New Haven High school; and
 Whereas, The effort to combine in the same school, the teachings of Jesus Christ with those of Kaiser Wilhelm and of the Lords Prayer and the Ten Commandments with bayonet drill and confusing ito young and inexperienced minds; and
 Whereas, We have been assured that the success of the United States and the Allies in the last great war would result in making the world safe for democracy and humanity, to say nothing of the United States; and so military training is unnecessary; and
 Whereas, The readiness of students of Our higher institutions of learning to act as strike-breakers against the striking policemen of Boston; and of state militia to break the strike of steel workers in Pennsylvania indicates that military training as proposed, will not foster peace and harmony in the nation therefore be, 1t
 Resolved, That Elm Lodge No. 42O, International Association of Machin- ists, urge the mayor and board of edu- cation to give up the military training project so vital1y interesting to certain prominent persons; and show consid- eration rather for the welfare of hu- manity and of the great majority of citizens not so prominent perhaps, but eOua11v as useful"

BREWERY WORKERS
 UP AGAINST IT
Unjust Competition From New York Beer and Unfair De-
 livery of Near Beer.

If there is one organization which particularly proves its loyalty to trades unionism it is that of the Brewery and Soft Drink Workers and just now, when that body is up against it good and plenty, is good time to bear that fact in mind.
 One of the disadvantages under which they stand at present is the extensive sale of 2.75 per cent. beer which is brought into New Haven and other Connecticut cities by auto transport from New York. As the law is inter preted i'll Connecticut the local brewers cannot brew beer of that strength but it can be brewed under the New York administration of the law and the re- suit is a most unfair competition for Connecticut brewers and their work men.
 Still another matter which should be given attention by members of organ zed labor is the practice of delivering near beer by non-union driversL work which the Brewery and Soft Drink Workers Union most emphatically in sists belongs to their organization. This near beer and substitutes which is handled by wholesale grocers and bottl- ing houses is handled by non-union men and delivered to union bars.
 This matter is now in the hands of a committe of the New Haven Trades Council which was directed to interview the officers of the New Haven Wine and Liquor Dealers Association concerning

CALLED ON POLICE
 TO DISPERSE TICKETS
Several Merchants in New Haven Agree to Demands of Ladies
 Garment Workers.

An important meeting of the Inter national Ladies' Garment Workers Union, Local %, of New Haven, was held at the Labor Lyceum on Thursday afternoon, with Vice-President Seidman of the international organization in at tendance President Ira M. Ornburn of the New Haven Trades Council had a conference with the executive board of the local earlier i'll the week.
 Members of the union, composing ladies' tailors and alteration tailors, went on strike at 10. o'clock last Satur- day morning. All left work on the stroke of the bell. A meeting was held at once. The demands made were an advance of so per cent. in wages, a 44-hour week and recognition of the union. On Thursday eight proprietor~ agreed to the demands and their ern- D1oyees returned to work. A settlement is being made with some other propric- tors and 1t is expected others will re- turn to work soon. The situation in Hartford is similar to the one i'll New Haven.
 The Local has had pickets at work every day taking note of those who went to work i'll the places where there is a strike. It is said that some hands were engaged to replace the strikers but they were not competent workmen. Officials of the union were notified that some manufacturer called upon the police at the corner~of Orange street and Pitkin alley to have the pickets dispersed and be commanded to keep away from that locality. The police took no action as there was no disorder and the mem bers of the union have endeavored to avoid any altercation. Some stor 4keep- CTS have asked their sa1esladies to fill the places of strikers and a few refused while others went to work as repairing hands.
 The following stores have made set t1ement with the union and the en- p1oyees have returned to work: Stew arts Ready to Wear Shop, Chapel street; A. Mednik, 913 Grand avenue R. Henstell Church street; Meyer Cohen, and Weinstein, Chapel street Jacob Appell, York street; $. A. Scher- CT, Orange street; Jacob l. Greenberg Dixwell avenue; s.

and distributed by delegates of the factor in winning the fight
 The Heating faction thought they were going to have the last say in the controversy when it landed a story in one of the evening papers On the night preceding the primaries attacking the Trades Council for its war Oil Keating, he stated, but it had an awakening the following morning when it discovered on every hand a copy of The Labor Press extra placing before the voters a host of reasons why no labor man or friend of labor could consistently vote for the autocrat of the democratic party.
 President Ornburn went on to say that he for one did not like the way things have been going on in New FIa- ven. He didn't like to see contracts for bridges and other municipal work go SO talmost invariably to open shop con- tractors employing 4on-union labor He expressed the belief that now we have gotten the ball rolling we should keep it going.
 He suggested the appointment of committee of two or three members from each local in the city to act as what might be called political activity committee. This committee could bring before the Trades Council, under good and welfare, and subordinate to the

CAPMAKERS GET
 ANOTHER RAISE.
 STILL GOING UP
Latest Addition to Wages of New Haven Union Was Volun-
 tary by Bosses.
ANOTHER SHOP IN TOWN
Attempt to Unseat Delegate Leventhal at Last Bi-en-
 nial Convention.

The New Haven Local of the United Cloth Hat and Capmakers~ of North America at its ~aHeeting on Saturday night decided to accept the voluntary raise Ill wages offered them by the manufacturers. All the capmakers in the city belong to the union. The Yale Hat Shop IS newcomer and it opened factory on George street over the floor formerly used by the Public Market It began operations with six Workrnen and expects to have four more soon. Most of these workmen were drawn away from other shops and this IS sa1d to be the cause of the voluntary boost Ill wages. Max Zuckerman of New York, general secretary-treasurer ot the rational organization and mem Der of the general executive board, was III New Haven in conference with a committee of the Local and 1t is said that he advised the members to accept the advance i'll wages
 This advance followed another ad- vance made in July At that time, the workmen had a raise of $3, $4 and $5 weekly. Those who made over $50 a week got a $3 raise and those who made under $25 got $5 additional. The latest advance gives $3 to those who had $5 raise and $5 to those who had a raise of $3.- The Manufacturers Association held a meeting at the Taft Hotel, when the above action was taken. At the time the last raise was decided upon it was announced that the manufacturers were to give a compli- mentary banquet to the employees but nothing about a banquet was said at the last meeting.
 The Capn,akers' Union has elected H. Wehner secretary in place of S. Le- vine. MT. Levine has served some time and he was given a vote of thanks.
 The convention number of the Head gear Worker, the official organ of the national organization, gives some de- tails of an attempt to unseat Benjamin Leventha1, delegate from the New Ha- ven Union, Local 28. The committee on credentials gave a hearing on the matter and the committee made a re- port when Sister Pearl Teller was in the chair. The protest was based mainly ons constitutional grounds. It was claimed that the delegate violated Article Is, Section ,, of the constitu- tlon by mixing i'll politics.
 MT. Leventha1 explained that he was a delegate from his Local to the New Haven Trades Council and that body | had decided to support Thomas J. Spell lacy, a democrat for governor. The candidate had appeared before the council and said that he was ready to support labor in any and all measures That if any law in favor of labor was passed he would put his signature to it on the dotted line. As member of the Trades Council, MT. Leventha1 said he had supported the candidate but said he had never belonged to the democratic party and as an individual did not vote the democratic ticket
 The committee on credentials voted that MT. Leventha1 be seated and the re- port was loudly app1auded.

Trades Council, as having been a great trade union business to come before meetings, some form of report for the consideration of the Council and also make recommendations. This commit tee might be so selected as to make up a representation for every ward in the city.
 There wasn't one man who worked in this recent fight who would have accepted political office if it had been offered to him." continued the speaker i'll making clear the point that there is no personal advancement sought in this movement. There are, however, many matters affecting the welfare of organ ized labor in which we are all inter ested. We are particularly interested in representation upon the city commits sions, especially the board of educa- ton and the police and fire commits sions. We haven't a friend on the police commission and when occasion arises for redress for an injustice from the police department it is useless for us to appeal to that body.
 "H isn't enough for me to have man say to md You ought to be satisfied with my administration because I have always been friendly to labor," the speaker added. Labor should have a square deal from all branches of the city government"
