MANUFACTURERS OPPOSE MEASURE
Strongly Against Licensing of Stationary En-
 gineers.

A striking array of legal talent representing the manufacturers of Bridgeport, appeared before the Board of Aldermen at the meeting g last night to oppose the proposed or dinance relative to the licensing of stationary engineers in this city The ordinance was introduced some weeks ago by Alderman Henry A. Lewis and the public hearing was held at the special meeting last night. Indica- tions point to an unfavorable report by the ordinance committed
 A. M. Reffelte, a stationary en- gineer of this city, and the man who prepared the proposed ordinance, told of cases of neglect on boilers in Bridgeport by their present attend ants which have endangered life and ! property and the necessity of having men on the job who have passed ex- aminations for stationary engineers.
 Police Commissioner Frank Ander- son, who is chief consulting engineer at the Warner Bros Co.,, also ap- peared in favor of the proposed ordin- ance. saying he thought it was time such legislation was enacted in Bridgeport
 George s. Hawley appeared as rep resentative of the Manufacturers' As
 
 grounds that 1t was class legislation and that it was not needed on Bridge and that it was not needed in Bridge ject of boiler explosions to show that there was only one serious explosion in the State of Connecticut in 25 years. He said all boilers were insured and that the insurance inspection was the best protection.
 Judge John W. Banks appeared on hah hal U. M- C. company and opposed the measure along the same lines taken by Mir. Hawley.
 George Flames of the Singer Sew | ing Machine Go. said he didn't See how licensing the engineers would ! improve matters as you could not improve on- 100 per cent. and that was how the situation stood in Bridgeport at the present time. Mir. Barnes said he didn't think he would ! obey the law anyway If the ordinance was passed.
 Guy P. Miller of the Bridgeport Brass Co. and the American Tube &, Stamping Co.,. agreed with Mr Eames and urged the measure be rejected He said 1t was a scheme for petty graft.
 Judge A. B. Beers, representing the United Illuminating Company, said such an ordinance would. if passed, have a serious effect on the company he represented. "It may result in the tying up of industry in Bridgeport. The illuminating company uses tur- bine boilers, and the men who have been running them for years are lbet- ter experienced than men who could be licensed" He concluded by say ing. If such a law is passed we will have to keep we have always done. disobey the law. and take a chance of being fined"
