Tie greatness Of France Hes IN her
sense Of the beauty and Importance
of living. As life is an Art in Er.-lco,
So Woluan is IN artist. She does not
teach man. but she inspires him. And
a. The French woman of the brcad-win-
ming class influences her husband and
he regards her Judgment and her
wishes. the same is similarly true OF
The French woman of the rich and ed.
uratcd class, the French woman Of
leisure. But IN tlis world her ntiu-
ence naturally tends much farther.
The more civilized society is the
wider Is the range of each W6man'S
Influence over men. and Of each mans
influence over women. Intelligent and
cultivated people of either sex will not
limit themselves to continuing with
their own households Men and wom
Ell equally, when they have the range
of interests that real cultivation gives,
need the stimulus OF different points
Of view, the retreShment of new ideas
as well as of new faces
No one who has seen French WON.

GENERAL WELFARE BILLS.
But Little Interest Shown in
 Hearing in Hartford.

The general welfare bills introduced in the legislature in 1917 by Bridgeport men were bequeathed to the present session, or some of them were, and a part of the blanket measure came up before the judiciary committee for a hearing on Tuesday. William BroSmith of Hartford who was on the special commission appointed in 1917 to report on the bill, was the only person to ap- pear in favor of it.
 Attorney BroSmith told the commit tee that the commission favored pen sions for mothers and he reminded the members that the commission report covered the matter fully. He referred briefly to other parts of the report hut did not express any very staunch opin- ion regarding the various propositions.
 There was no one else to say a word about the report, or the original bill which carried something like 20 dis tinct propositions relating to state aid in all sorts of lines.
 The opposition came from Ralph o. Wells of Hartford, speaking for the Chamber o. - nmerce and the State Manufacturers association. John H. Buck of Hartford, also representing manufacturers, opposed the occupation- al diseases feature, which has already been dealt with by the judiciary com mittee in a favorable report to a cer- tain degree.

PRINTSHOPS MAY
 LOSE THE LABEL
New Haven Concerns Given 30 Days in Which to Conform
 to Regulations.

Regulations governing the use of the Allied Printing Trades label in New Haven are going to be more stringently enforced in the future than they have been for some time past, according tC a report made at the meeting of the Typo graphical union, Sunday, by he dele gates to the Allied Printing Trades Council.
 Certain offices which have the label have been allowing certain laxity to creep in and an investigation by repre- sentatives of the Council indicates that in some instances the violations have been extreme. As a result several offices have been given 30 days in which to conform to the regulations and if they have not compiled by that time their labels will be taken away.
 A strong effort is being made by the Allied Printing Trades Council to ere ate greater interest in the demand for the label of the printing trades and all members of Organized Labor in the city are requested to promote its use as much as possible A verbal request of 8 merchant issuing printed matter that he have the label attached is usually suf1c- tent for, unless a business man IS Vio- lsntly opposed to Organized Labor as a matter of general principle. he has no bjection to using the label In fact if he desires the trade of union men and women he IS glad to use 1t because 1t indicates his friendliness and IS an additional inducement for union mem bers to trade with him.

LOCAL UNION MEMBER WRITES
 FROM SIBERIA
J. F. Stock of Electrical Workers Union in Land of
 Perpetual Snow.
WAS IN AMERICAN ARMY
May Now Be Fighting the Bol- shevists or Wiring in Some
 Russian Burg.

The Electrical Workers Union of
 this city. (inside division) has re-
 celved letter from a member of the
 organization, F. J. Stock, who writes
 that he IS some place in Siberia but
 does not give any information about
 what he IS doing. He says that when
 he gets up in the morning there is frost on his Whiskers so there is but little doubt but that he is in Siberia. Mr.
 Stock writes that although it is so cold there he often thinks of working over the boilers at Marlin's and from the tone of his letter he prefers the ex- treme heat to the Siberian winter. He enlisted in the army but it is not known whether he Is still a soldier or working at his trade for some American firm over there. The chances are that he is still in the service for some American troops are in Russia
 Dispatches from Omsk say that the kolshak army is advancing between Perm and the Trans-Siberian Railway and captured Okansk in its advance along the Kama river. The Bolsheviki were reported to have been defeated in the region of Birsk. The troops of the kolohak Government, which pierced the Bolshevik front on thirty mile sector on March II continue their progress and the position of the Bolsheviki is pre- carlous. according to Reuter- despatch from Omsk. The Kolchak army has completed the capture of Osa southwest of Perm, and is driving the Bolshevik army westward in three directions. The Bolsheviki are abandoning large Quanti- ties of stores, while the Kolchak troops have taken a large number of prisoners and annihilated three Bolshevik regi- ments

 The correspondent of the Electrical orkers' Union visited the new home of The Connecticut LabGr Press this week, 1 probably the most uD-to-date plant of any labor paper in this country. The 1 fine mechanical appearance of the paper in addition to its excellent news fea- lures and lofty editorial tone has at tracted attention and we were not sur prised to see all the latest wrinkles in equipment. We had one surprise, though, for we had been led l to believe that the printers wiped the l ink rollers with the same towel that | they used for their hands after washing. l As a matter of record, the towels there l were almost as clean as those used by l electrical workers.

 WILL HAVE A PARTY
To Welcome Returning Members Who Have Been in Service of
 the Army and Navy.

The Capmakers' Union of New Ha- ven met Saturday night and discussed the forthcoming biennial national con- vention soon to be held in New York. At the next meeting a delegate will be chosen to the annual meeting of the Connecticut Federation of Labor
 The union is preparing to have well coming party for the members who have been in the service of the United States for the war. Samuel Gordon is the first member to return and the nearest he got to France and Flanders was training camp in the Far West. He got good military training, how ever, and will be in fine shape for the next war.
 Samuel Levine, secretary of the union, received letter this week from Samuel Aluff, who has been in the in- fantry for over year and was in one of the combat regiments in France dur ing some of the big battles. The mem bers expect to hear all about the fighting when Aluff gets back.

LETTER CARRIERS
 TO MEET APRIL 5
Important Meeting of Branch 19 of New Haven Is Scheduled for
 One Week From Tonight.

The next meeting of Branch 19, New Haven Local, National Association of Letter Carriers, will be held on the evening of April and as some import ant business IS to come up an extra effort is beir:g made to have a large at tendance. It is not within the province of The Connecticut Labor Press to dis close the subject to be discussed as the matter concerns only the carriers them selves.
 At this meeting, Charles Cline and Walter Ladd may be asked for some de- tails about the motorboat they bought on Sunday. If there is spring freshet and the flood is too deep for boots this boat may come in handy for getting around with the mails. Barney Moran may also be asked to decide a disputed point about the merits of two breeds of f0hting cocks.
 The branch received this week a pamphlet concerning the i'm risonment of seven leaders of the International Bible Students Association an inde- pendent religious organization of which Pastor Russell was the head until his death. They are under sentences of 20 years each at the Federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga, for alleged violation of the espionage act. They helped circulate book called "The Finished Mystery" and advised Bible students how to prop erly fill out their draft quest1onnaires with reference to obtaining exemption on the ground of conscientious objcc- with the successful prosecu- ton of the war. It is unlikely that the branch takes any action upon this mat

Girl Who Acknowledged Ambul-

When the Red Cross ambulance bought with funds furnished by organ ized labor ;u Connecticut was sent to New York, President Patrick F. O'Meara of the Connecticut Federation of Labor received letter from Com mandcr Dorothy C. Smyley of the Transportation Corps of the American Red Cross, in which she thanked the state organization for its handsome gift. Commander Smyley was in the big par ade in New York on Tuesday when the Twenty-Seventh Division marched up Fifth avenue as the following from a New York paper shows:
 "'Hey! There's Dorothy Oh. you Dorothy, you're all rightl' shrieked a stocky gentleman as Dorothy C. Smy- ley, commander of the Transportation Corps for the Atlantic Division of the American Red Cross, went by at the wheel of a car holding six men, each with a crutch sticking up.

MARKING STORAGE EGGS.
President o O'Meara Favors Repeal
 of This Law.

The Connecticut Legislature in 1917 put a law on the statute books requiring that cold storage eggs be, marked in- dividually on the shell. The law was not enforced because of wartime food regulations. An effort is being made to have this law repealed and the com mittee on agriculture gave hearing on it on Thursday. President Smith of the Connecticut Poultry Association charged that the repeal of the law is urged by wholesale dealers at the re- quest of retailers so that the dealers could make larger profit selling cold storage eggs for fresh. President Pat rick F. O'Meara of the Connecticut Fed eration of Labor favored the repeal of the law on the ground of increased cost. He said that he would oppose the mark ing of eggs even if it cost but one cent a dozen. Wholesalers claim the added cost for marking is five cents a dozen. President Smith produced six eggs in three separate paper plates and chal- lenged any one to aick out the rotten ones, the nusty eggs and the fresh ones without holding them Up to light.
