TROOPS ARE ON
 GUARD
Wounded Officers Are Expected To Re-
 cover.

Waterbury, Conn.,, June 22-Strike conditions here seemed to- have taken turn for the better today. Luigi Scalmana, President of the New England Workers Association, the body of unskilled workers of the brass factories who have been on strike for ten weeks, issued a mo- tice to the strikers that married men would be permitted to return to work. while single men must remain out.
 This action on the part of the one man who has had much authority over the unskilled strikers is expect ed to decrease the number of unem- ployed by many hundreds. It may have no immediate effect, however. on the strike of the machinists in the factories. Th> latter are now receiv- ing strike benefits and claim to be able to stay out indefinitely.
 There were no gatherings on the streets near the factories this morn ing and an observer would not note anything out of the ordinary, except that at several places state guards men were on duty. The entire city battalion of the guard was still on duty, having been called upon last night for protective service. The details were at the armory, around the electric light plant, and at the municipal buildings. The rest were held in reserve at the armory. There have been no street disturb ances or striker gatherings since the one at. noon yesterday in which shots were fired. A hospital bulletin this morning stated that the condition o1 Police Lieutenant Richard LeRoy and of Lieutenant John J. Bergin of the

School Nurses Start
 Home Nursing Work

The school nurses of the Division of Child Hygiene will complete their work in the schools this week, and will turn their attention to the Home nursing problems in their respective districts, according to an announce ment made at the Welfare building by Dr. Le Roy Wilkes Of the Health Department this morning.
 "We find that 70 per cent. of the children die' within the first two months of their lives from the lack of proper nursing,' said Dr. Wilkes, and it is our intention to curtail this loss of infant life as much as possible. Bottle fed babies will come in for special observation and it will be the duties of the nurses to see that the milk is properly modified before it is fed to the infants"
 The birth certificate furnished by the State Department of Health will be used as a card of introduction by the nurses. All births that are re- corded in the respective districts will be investigated by the nurses and re- peated visits to keep tabs on the health of the infants in the first two months before they are brought to the health stations will be made"

PEOPLE ARE FOR THIRD
 PARTY
BOrah Asserts Move is Being Watched
 Keenly.

Salt Lake City. June 22-There is a growing desire among the people of the United States for a new political party and any movement in this di- rection will be watched with keen in- terest, declared Senator Borah of Idaho, Republican, who was visitor in Salt Lake City today on his way home for a vacation.
 He attended a mass meeting given under the auspices of the Committee of 43 but declined to make any state ment before the audience.
 1'The success, however, of any third party" he said in his statement, "de- bends entirely upon the platform it adopts and candidates it places in nomination. It is a difficult matter to successfully launch a party, as the slightest mistake in the beginning marks the doom of the venture. If those advocating another ticket lean too far toward either the reactionary or the radical their efforts will prove futile in spite of the fact that the present is the opportune time offered in many years for breaking away from the old organizati tions."

ANNOUNCE DRIVE
 AGAINST RADICALISM

Washington, June 22.---Armed with broadened powers provided In the re- gently enacted alien exclusion act, De- partm ent of Justice officials today an- a new drive against radical ism. G
 Orders have been issued for a strict watch on the activities of those who preach radical doctrines or assist in spreading such theories while them selves refraining from actual anar- chiStic activities.
 The ''theoreticaF' and the "parlor Bolsheviki'' are to be especially ob- jects of the campaign. Provisions of the new act have greatly widened the scope of the departments power to rid the country of aliens who stir Up discontent with guarded revolution ary doctrines
 Advocacy either of sabotage or op- position to all organized government by aliens of their organizations is sufficient to bring them within the new law, according to the depart ment's legal authorities. Sabotage in this connection is construed by the department to mean opposition to the administration of the government, and aliens who publish writing ad-- vising against organized government even though the United States is excepted-are liable to deportation, it was sad. The financial resources of radical associations are being care fully scrutinized, officials declared and it was thought that the income of many will be cut off by the new law which prohibits the giving or loan ing of money to anarchistic organ izations Purchase of ''red" bonds will come within this category, it is believed.
