 ."Plense wire us collect your opin- lon of action of the state republican committee in attacking the, attitude of the Hartford Times during the Civil war in effort to secure the re- eleatiou of Senator Brandegee."
 Because of q series of advertise ments being run in the Hartford Courant" and other state newspapers quoting the editorials in the Hart ford Times of 1880 and 1920 against the republican party, these telegrams are being sent to many clergymen and some judges.

 Each month. on the third Friday afternoon. a special effort will be made to get the parents to the schools. It Is planned to continue the regu- lar afternoon work, not the little en- tertainments that can be given by the rN4a.

 PHOENIX, July 2S.-In the be- lief that too many escapes have oc cured at the state industriah'schOoi at Fort Grant, Arizona, Clayton Ben nett, secretary of the board of direc- tors of state institutions, announced today that steps would now be taken to reduce the number of fugitives. Returning from an inspection of the school, Secretary Bennett said he would recommend to the board that prison netting be used to cover the windows of the buildings and that more guards be employed.
 Too many of the boys and girls committed to the institution have come to look upon an escape as an adventure, he said. The secretary made particular reference to the es- cape )f two boys and three girls on July 5. They travelled from Tempe to California in a stolen automobile, were captured and returned to the school to serve out the remainder of their time, Mir. Bennett said.

ARKANSAS ROAD
 DELAYS CONVOY

It is possible the United States motor convoy will be abandoned somewhere in Texas, it was stated at the Warren District Commercial club yesterday on receipt of advices from Dallas.
 Bad roads in western Arkansas and northeastern Texas have caused the schedule of the convoy to fall down to 40 miles day average. The com mander of the convoy wired the Dal- las entertainment committee that he does not know when he will reach Dallas or anywhere. The committee had wired him extending an invita- ton to the personnel for a reception. He thanked the committee, saying he and his command .rejoiced that they could be thankful for something.
 The convoy according to the sched- ule was in DeKalb, Texas, yesterday. DeKalb is 1S0 miles east from Dallas. The convoy maintained it's schedule to Memphis, according to advices. This was over paved highways or good roads, gravel and otherwise.
 It was stated that the convoy might demonstrate one of several things. It may De lHdl tue COhNOE VIII uc auoH- doned some place in Texas through the destruction of it's equipment or through a decision that its equipment is not suited to natural roads in the southwest. or that nothing less than a war would induce the convoy to pro- ceed unless the through roads are paved Tn any event, it was pointed out, the convoy will be great boost for good state roads and the strong est argument possible for federal aid in proportions suitable to sparsely settled region like Arizona, where so per cent of the total area is govern ment owned reservations exempt from taxation, where the 20 per cent privately owned area must bear the burden of all taxation of an almost 74,000.00O acre area called Arizona.

MEN ADOPT PLAN OE
 PAY uP' WEEK

With thorough discussion of the serious financial situation now fac ing the country's business-particu- lariy business men in the Warren District-the Warren District Rusi- ness Mems Association completed plans last night for the Pay-Up Week Drive, which is scheduled for the week beginning August and ending August 2. Many expressions as to the stringent conditions now existing as regards credits came out at the meeting, and it was the senti- ment of every member present that action must be taken immediately to collect every account owing in the District
 Wholesalers and manufacturers have come to where they are refus- ing credit to well-established firms, demanding that they show a better credit sheet before goods will be shipped. Banks all over the coun- try have frightened up on credits to where only the merchant who car ries current accounts will be loaned and then only when the merchant is able to show that his accounts can be liquidated on demand. It has therefore come to a point where the local merchants are forced to bring all their accounts to a current basis, and the action Of the meeting last night was to put every merchant in the District on record as refusing to extend credit in the future to GUS. toners who refuse to pay their out standing bills. In order to facilitate the working of the plans adopted at last nights meeting weekly bulle- tin will be issued by the secretary of the Association regarding credits beginning with the issue of Monday August 9. which will carry the names of all accounts which have not been satisfactorily settled prior to that time and the bulletin will be issued at regular intervals thereafter.
 The Warren District has enjoyed a reputation heretofore of having . citizenship which kept up with its obligations and the sentiment of the meeting last night was that after this matter had been called to the attention of the buying public in the District by a Pay-Up Week Drive, there would be little trouble with overdue accounts in the future.

 WASHINGTON, July 2S. - Men tioning the suspension of operations by the American Woolen company and the announced intention of the Pennsylvania railroad to reduce it's working force, Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, in a statement today, de- clared that action of corporations which today lay off thousands of men is nothing less than a tremen- dous indictment of management and a heinous offense against a people in need of every possible ounce of production"
 The federation, he asserted, at all hazards will resist wage reduction.
 For months we have heard the cry: Increase production,' Mir. Gompers declared. How can a pol icy of increased production be ac- complished under a policy of laying off thousands of workers?'
 The Pennsylvania railroad, he add ed. plans to lay off 12,O00 men.
 will this help move freight?" MT Gompers continued. Will it helI give the nation that increased pro duction or what it stands in need? Or is the laying off of workers a re- vival of that old and crude policy of laying off men during political campaign for the, purpose of driving them, in fright and necessity, into a political camp? Tn addition there have been reports of efforts to de crease wages There is no excuse and much less reason for reduction of wages
