BRISTOL. X. l.. PL4NT
RE-OPENED TO-DAY
There Was Only Small Representa-
tion of Workers-Some Report
They are Afraid to Go to
Work in India Rubber
Plant.

Bristol, r. l., June 3--The National
India Rubber company re-opened its
tennis shoe and wire insulation factory
here to-day after a months shutdown
| but fell short of obtaining a working
force. 1t was estimated that less than
one half of the 400 operatives usual.
ly employed reported for work.
The workers poured into the main
gate of the factory through streets pa
trolled by National Guardsmen mount
ed and on foot under Adiutant General
| Charles w. Abbott, jr. The guards
men have been on duty since Governor
Beeckman declared the town in a state
of insurreetion last Friday because of
rioting. Returning employees met with
no interference or picketing activities
from the strikers, who walked out a
month ago because of dissatisfaction
with readjustment of the wage scale.
The strikers, however, held their
strength, the absentees to-day being
almost double the number of those
who participated in the original walk
out.
When questioned in their homes by
General Abbott as to their reasons for
not geturning to work when offered
the opportunity under military pro-
lection. several women operatives said
they feared violence and gave him the
names of one or two men who they
said were active spirits in a group
engaged in spreading propaganda of
intimidation. As a result of informa.
tion thus obtained a conference of mil
itary officials was held after which ii
was announced that Major Dubois, the
Judge advocate of the guard, would
proceed Immediately to have Angelo
NJ. Chearell. considered one of the
strike leaders, brought to trial on
charges of assault with a dangerous
weapon now pending against him. A
change of venue from Bristol county
to Providence county will be asked, it
is said.
The extent to which the factory
force ready for duty fell short of op-
Grating requirements was indicated BY
statement Of company officials. II
was said that 500 Of the 100 clerks,
mGchinists. carpenters and fremen re
ported and that only 100 of the 400
operatives in the making" department |
regarded as the hub of operations, |
were on hand. In the other depart |
ments early figures indicated about 80 |
per cent of the operatives still out
As the total available did not con-
stitute an efficient working force, com.
pany officials held a conference later in
the day to consider what the future
policy should be.

THE sUPERANNUATED EMPLoYE.
Retirement Bill Will Add to Efficien-
cy of Government Departments.

President Wilson has signed the
bill TO retire on part pay the eyed EN-
ployes of the departments at Wash
ington and the new law will be effec-
tive in 30 days. With the coming OF
that law and its application it will be
possible to work real reforms in the
departments and develop an efficiency
that has not been shown before The
law ought to bring large returns in
the application of principles of hu-
inanity and economy.
In all efforts to modernize methods
and develop efficiency in the depart
ments at Washington, the problem of
what to do with the old employees has
come up early and been puzzling. The
departments are filled with very old
men and women, those who have given
lifetime to their task, rendered faith
full service, drawn small pay, and in old
age would be helpless If thrown out of
the one place where they know the
work to be done.
Public conscience would not support
the idea of throwing them out of EN-
ployment in the days of their de-
pendence even though public economy
argued strongly against retaining
them in place. They are incapable
OF rendering economic service. Many
of them totter to their desks and are
able to do only mere routine work.
Reorganization of the departments
along the line of operating economy
and business efficiency is utterly i'm
possible until they are disposed Of,
The civil service retirement law opens
the way. Their going will open the
door for reorganization along business
lines and the opportunity should be
utilized. Ohio State Journal.

BATTLESHIP
IN CONFUSION
Super -Dreadnought Tennessee Cost the
United States Government $2O,-
100000 and is the "Last
Word" in Warship
Construction.

New York, June 3--The super dread
nought Tennessee, the largest and most
formidable battleship afoat goes into
commission to-day at the Brooklyn
navy yard. Formal ceremonies are set
for 2:30 o'clock. Constructed here at
cost OF $4,000, she represents the
last word in battlesIip architecture.
She is 625 feet long, has a beam of 9S
feet and displacement of 32,500 tons.
The Tennessee is the first battleship
to recruit her entire personnel from
the state from which it takes its name,
and represents advantages taken from
lessons learned in the battle of Jut-
land and other important naval bat
ties of the World war.
This last special Feature, which dis
tinguishes the Tennessee from all 9TH
er units of the United States navy is
the highly organized fighting brain"
enclosed in a steel fort near the top
of the forward mast. Here are concen-
trated devices for observing enemy
ships, device not known in the bat
tie of Jutland. Special devices are in
stalled in this tiIrret which enable the
crew to quickly train the l4inch guns
on the enemy before the crew of any
other battleship known could even
sight the Tennessee. This new device
consists of three decks and their fight
ing complement is % men.
By special signaling devices reports
from this fighting top can be flashed
to all parts of the ship, thus
insuring instant correction of range
and rapid fire. This fighting BRAIN
is filled with mechanical devices for
range finding and other delicate instru-
nents never before used on battle
ship.
The Tennessee is believed to have
been built with more care for the com
fort of her crew than any other battle
ship in the world. Her size makes pos
,ible spacious lockers. baths and recre
alton quarters. She has a handsome
" furnished club room and library for
enlisted men.
She viii not actually be put into
service until Aug. l. when she viii sail !
