Wage Controversy Is Placed Before

 Attached to MT. JeweIPs letter was correspondence setting forth the atti- tude of the men and the executive committee. E. T. Winter for the rail way executives. wrote that while an agreement as to wages might be reached by direct negotiations be- tween representatives of the roads and the men the executives did not believe Congress contemplated a set tlement involving so great an addition to transportation costs without the public being represented in the con- ference.
 Replying to this letter MT. Jewell said he believed the reason given by the managers for terminating the ne- gotfations was mot in accord with our understanding of the law
 The attitude of your committee in failing to carry out the wishes of the president of the United States comes as a surprise to us.' MT Jewell wrote to MT. Winter. 'tIt will result in keen disappointment to our constituents as well as the general public, both of whom are parties at interest and entitled to more consid- eration from the bipartisan board than you have elected to give.
 We understood from this that your committee has deniteIy declined to assume the responsibility and pel form the duty which is so clearly desired in the public interest, and which the transportation act, as we understand it, contemplates; that of agreeing in conference upon rates of pay for railroad employees which are just and reasonable.''
 Union officials reiterated that at the request of the president they were going along to give the transporta- ton act fair trial" although they did not endorse anw of it's provisions They took the position that with the breaking up of the joint conference the whole matter was made more difficult since the union membership was becoming restiye

BRIDGEPORT MAY GET RECREATION
 BUILDING SOON
Continued from Page one.)

The only seeming obstacle in the way of prompt beginning on this plan for Bridgeport is a difference of opinion as to just how funds for the building shall be raised and whether it shall be open to the gen eral public or restricted to t'cluh members only.
 It has been suggested that a large club be formed, open virtually to any resident of the city, the dues to be nominal only and entrance to the building gained through membership cards.
 Others in the city, however, oppose this plan and insist that admission to the building be free. similar to the plan in Detroit.
 It has been practically decided that the building will be erected and main tained by private capital but here again there is a slight difference of opinion, some urging that a stock cor poration be formed and stock sold to all who want to buy, while others lean to the f'cloSe corporation" idea
 These minor differences, however will not stand in the way of the plan it is understood and Bridgeport may soon look for the start of building Of this nature. The definite location has not as yet been decided but those interested have under consideration three or four pieces of property in the city which are appropriate.
 When the matter was first taken up 1t was thought that several smaller buildings in various localities might answer the purpose better but further consideration of that plan has led to it's rejection.
