CITY NEEDS MORE SCHOOLS SUPT,

superintendent of Schools Samuel k. Slawson appeared before the mem oers of the Chamber of Commerce at their weekly monday luncheon in the Stratfield hotel today and spoke on the need of new high school for the Hast Side and the shortage of gram mar schools in Bridgeport
 MT. slawson's talk was along the same lines as that which he gave to the Board of Education at their mee-- ing on Monday night. Practically his whole speech was taken from the re- port submitted to the board.
 He spoke on the number of children now in the high school and the regis trat1on this year, pointing out that with 2,600 boys and girls registered in the high school after February he would have both the old and new schools on half time. He also touched on the need of rapid growth to take care of the increasing registration.
 He spoke of the number of boys tnd girls on half time in Bridgeport and urged that adequate grammar schools be erected

SWISS SUFFER
 FROhi INCREASE
 IN GOLD RESERVE

Geneva, Switzerland, November 1e. Switzerland is suffering from her increasing in gold reserves and the high rate of exchange in her favor, according to financial writers. Swiss exchange now stands at 100 marks for i francs and 100 crowns for four francs, which is the highest in Eur ope.. This is considered too heavy, resulting in the crippling of Swiss in dustries and export trade. Neighbor- ing nations, because of the loss in eX- change, are refusing to buy Swiss goods, but are trying to sell at prices with which the Swiss are unable to compete. Germany A said to be pro- fitting by the opportunity.
 The Swiss Government desiring to aid home industries is perplexed by the situation, as are other nations. For example, France and Italy, be- cause of exchange rates, can buy from Germany at About one- third the price asked by the United States and England.
 Recently the Swiss Government asked for the construction of a bridge across the river Aar, near Berne. German contractors offered to conn plete the bridge at lower price than Swiss firms said would be required to buy the raw materials for the structure. The financial condition is considered by experts to be new economic danger for Europe, espe- cially as wages and the cost of living are continuing to increase.

ALTERNATE IS FAVORED BY
 WAR DEPT.

Washington, D. c. Nov. 19.- Chances favor the ambitious alternate who fails of appointment as principal candidate for admission to the Unit ed States Military Academy at West Point. The War Deartment's records verify the statement, and there is q little story to illustrate how it comes to be true.
 A Congressman recently made all the nominations to which his district was entitled except that of a single alternate candidate. He offered the place to a boy who accepted 1t with nlisgivings. But when named, the youth entered a preparatory school and went to work. In this purpose he was greatly heartened by let ter from the War Department.
 The letter showed that more than 55 per cent. of the principal candi- dates appointed failed to qualify, thus affording vacancies for aIternates. It showed further that of the alternates who qualified 80 per cent. got ad- mission to the greatest military school in the world. The odds in his favor were four to one, with the ex- tra inducenent tmat if he did qualify he would not be required to undergo the mental examination second time should he fail to get admission under the appointment he then held and subsequently received another
 This was a sporting "proposition"E this real American boy could not re- sist. He worked faithfully. Re

PROTEST COMMITTEE ARRANGING
 SLAP ON WRIST FOR ZONE FARES

yond stating that it would be held tonight.
 It was many weeks ago that the zone system was announced and al- most at the start Mayor Wilson ap- pointed committee to protest, but owing to election and the ruling or Attorney General Healey that nothing could be done until the system was in operation, the committee have yet to take any definite stand. It is ex- pected that at the meeting tonight much data which they have gathered will be taken up and discussed.
 If the zone system lasts until next spring and summer it appears that the open cars so beloved to the chill dren and workmen will De no more as no system seems to have been devised whereby the cars can be used on a zone basis.
 When Manager Joseph S. Goodwin was asked about this phase of the system he could not state just what would be done about the open cars during the summer months
 It appears to be the plan of the Connecticut Company to entirely do away with the open cars as they say they are dangerous to. passengers. It is well known fact that the zone system could not be used with the present system on the open cars as even the pre-payne ent system had to be given up when the opel cars are on the lines.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-11-19

That the Connecticut Co., plans to back up its zone system despite the plans of protest being formulated here by the mayors zone committee IS evinced by the fact that Manacer Joseph S. Goodwin and officials of the company say that they are well sat isfied with the way the system is working out.
 Tonight there will be a meeting in the City Hall of the committee with City Attorney Comley. who will give the committee legal advice as to how to proceed in their protest against the system. Attorney Edward ]. 1dcManus, member of the commit tee, looks to see final plans com pleted tonight and the work of the committee definitely outlined.
 It seems to be the opinion Of the committee that a formal protest to the Public Utilities Commission will be decided upon at the meeting to- night. There were 11,rnors this morning that the committee might take up the question of appealing to the United States. Circuit Court and asking them to set aside the Bridge port hnes as separate unit of the company and then follow the five cent fare plan outlined by the traffic commission headed by Walter R L4ashar, but no member of the con- mlltee this morning could be found who would verify the rurnor and re- Iuseo to comment on the meeting be

BY-PRoDUCTS OF FISH INDUSTRY
 IS DOUBLED

Before the war America had a wonderful reputation for extrava- gance, but now fish will help us tell the world that our pre-war indif- ference will not return was the in teresting observation made to our representative by MT. Pulcher, vice president and general manager of the Federal Motor Truck Company, De- troit, Mich.
 "One of the old tabits,' said he was to Use only such parts of the fish as could be used for food. Now food is but small part of the fish. Big companies have been formed to extract the fish oil and make fer tiIizer from all parts of the fish formerly thrown away.
 The by-products of the fish indus try have more than doubled their value in the past few years. This what big companies do to the fsI4. When fish are caught, they are scaled. the entrails, head and tail re- moved. All the moisture in the form of fish oil is extracted under hydrau- lie pressure.
 The dry material is then put into large cylindrical vats, with an intense heat retort at one end. After 8 short period this material is removed from the vats, packed in bags and sold as a very necessary fertilizer.

NEW HAVEN LEADS CITIES
 PLACING SOLDIERS

New England still faces a consider able problem in finding suitable em- p1oynent for all returned fighting men. The War Department has just completed survey of this territory, and the report to Major General Will liam c. Ham, head of the service and information bureau, has been made public today.
 Safnnle figures from seven cities for four weeks show that while 3,027 ex- service men have applied for posi- lions, but 1880 have been put in jobs Boston alone shows more than half this unemployment, with 1,- e7s men applying and 5ss placed.
 In Springfield, Mass, the outlook. with the American Legion and the welfare bodies doing excellent work Worcester, reports very good condl- tions. The number of men applying is not as high as formerly, but they still come in fast enough to warrant the continuing of the bureau for re- turning soldiers and sailors. Of 370 men registering for work in four weeks, 356 were put in jobs. Bridge port, has 66 percentage Of place ments, and a considerable number of men coming around for the second job. In four weeks POS men were placed, out of sos applicants.
 Encouraging figures come from Hartford, where the American Legion is taking an active part in soldier employment work. This bureau will be permanent, if possible. The outlook in New Haven, is good The Knights of Columbus are conducting a whirl- wind drive for jobs, and the American Legion is starting up. In four weeks but s1 soldiers applied for work in New Haven, of whom SC were placed.
 The employment office in Torring- ton, reports that practically all ser vice men have been placed. Water bury, has found jobs for 113 soldiers out of 143.

How the Steel Strike
 Was Organized

(Continued From Page Four)
 comparatively small resources of the twenty-four internationals. st1ll these unions combined have a membership of 100000 out side of the steel industry, and some of them are the most DOW erful in the country, having strike funds running into the hundreds of thousands Moreover. immigrant workers have the fac ulty of making dollar go a long way in times of stress Many have money saved. They have repeatedly shown themselves the most self-sacrificing during strike periods. In the Lawrence and other textile strikes the irn- migrant workers remained out from three to six months with put asking or expecting financial aid. IT e financial aid of other labor organization is also to be counted on.
 Underlying the conflict is the
 apprehension that labor must win this strike or suffer a reverse that may destroy much of it's prestige. Labor feels this ana re- gards the steel strike as affecting the entire labor movement. Win ming the strike will enable the old guard to stave off it's radical enemies who have pointed to the unorganized steel industry as evil dence of the falIacy of conserva- tive craft unionisrn. Similarly. as labor men see it, a successful strike in the steel industry will put ''the fear of God" into the hearts of non-union employers. On the other hand, losing this strike would discredit the con- servative element in the A. F. of L. and might give the radicals the ascendency. It might also be a signal for concerted attack by anti-union employers to com
