Possible Candidates
Queried ON Suffrage
Five Mentioned for Connecticut
Covernorship Favor Call
ing Extra Session

Connecticut suffragista, who have
vowed to elect Governor who favors
ratification of the Federal suffrage
amendment, made public yesterday
letters from five possible nominees
Three are Republicans-R Representative
Schuyler Merritt, of Stamford; Lieu
tenant Governor Clifford B. Wilson
of bridgeport, and Robert Scoville, of
Salisbury. The other two are Demo
crats-E. Kent Hubbard, of Middle
town, and Charles Lockwood. of Stam-
ford. All declared their support of
the Federal amendment. Mr.. Scoville
said:
II am most emphatically of the
opinion that this question which a.
ready has been settled in the minds
Of vast majority of our population,
should be removed from among the
issues of the coming election and that
the Governor would be wise in calling
a special session to permit the Legis-
lature to ratify the Federal amend
ment."
The Lieutenant Governor also said
he believed special session was JUS
tilted.
The women are pledged to campaign
against all Republican candidates in
the coming election, as protest
against Governor Holcomb's refusal to
call special session. Exceptions will
be made only in the case of men who
openly support the demand for a
special session and who agree to pro-
test against their party's failure to
secure it

Under cover Of the apparent victory
which the merchants believe they have
obtained through judicial decisions Of
Judge Fawcett, the merchants will now
attempt to compel the people to work,
whether they like it or not. But they
will discover that it is not possible to
compel citizens of the United States to
work, either by injunctions or judicial
instructions, when those judicial inter-
pretations Of the law mean industrial

Workers to Stand Ground
John F. Riley, president of the dis
trict council of the International Long
shoremen's Association, declared the
workers have decided to stand their
ground despite the appearance of the
open shop trucks.
committee of local union leaders
including ]. j. Nick enna, of the team
ster organization, and Edward j. Nc
Caffrey, head Of the transportation
trades council, left the city for Mon
treal to place the situation before the
labor chiefs there. McKenha declared
that when the committee returned a
special meeting of the board of busi-
hess agents OF tHe CeamSCerS s union
would be called and definite policy
outlined.
Colonel Frederick A. Molitor, in
charge of operating the trucks for the
tradesmen, said that 200 men were on
the payroll of the independent COM
pany. Forty-nine trucks were worke d
ycs -rday at the coastwise piers until
neon, when the usual half holiday was
given the ex-service men employed as
drivers. About 100 tons of goods were
removed, he said, more than 275 tons
having been handled so far in three
days. Beginning tomorrow, he de-
clared, more that 500 tons would be
handled daily, and that the 5000 tons
now piled up at the piers would be
taken care Of by the end of the week.
In view Of the comment the employ
ment of ex-service men has caused
Colonel Molitor asserted that, while
the men were members Of the American
Legion, they volunteered as individuals
In that connection Lieutenant Colonel
A. &. Anderson, of the 165th Infantry

to the fact that specific proposals on
this subject submitted by labor are ig-
nored completely.
Profiteering Plank
"The Republican platform evades the
issue and offers no remedy; it denies
the Importance of profiteering as the
leading cause of the high cost Of living
and endeavors to put part OF the re-
sponsibility upon what it falsely calls
disproportionate wage advances We
have no knowledge of any substantial
or effective anti-profteering laws
passed by the Republican Congress"
The plank regarding labor's rights to
strike constitutes a denial Of labor's
demands and contemplates the erection
Of government machinery for the CO.
ercion of labor and for the suppre ssion
and limitation Of it's proper, lawful and
normal activities" it is charged.
sit proposes to erect government
pei involuntary labor The entire plank
is denial of freedom and in addition
subversive Of the best interests Of our
republic"
The labor leaders asserted Republi-
cans failed to mention in their platform
labor's demands for Federal law for
the legal right of voluntary associ-
alton" to protect itself against "un-
warranted issuance Of writs Of injunc-
tion" and the vigorous enforcement Of
the seamen's act and the most liberal
Interpretation of its provisions"
ut will be noted that the platform" J"
said the statement ais silent on the
essential right of wage earners to or
ganize into trade unions and to select
their own representatives, and ignores
the fact that only by collective bar
gaining through such organization of
the wage workers can industrial justice
be attained"
The labor leaders also pointed out
that the Republican platform was sill
ent on labor's demand that Congress
should take action to prevent the Fed
eral courts from continuing the usur-
patton of authority in declaring un-
constitutional acts passed by Congress"
of all Federal courts "shall be elected
by the people for terms not exceeding
six years"
'Gompers Attacked
Condemnation of the Republican
party by the Federation's convention
was declared tonight in statement
issued by William Hutcheson president
of the Carpenters and Joiners' Union
Gompers to play organized labor into
the hands of the Democratic party.
The convention accepted the invita-
tion of Secretary of Labor Wilson to
recommend j representative to repre-
sent the Federation at the coming meet
ing of the International Labor Com
mission, which was established under
the league OF nations.
Organized labor pledged itself to
purchase only union labelled goods,
after several delegates had declared
that the union label must be given
more patronage" if the union shop,
hours, wages, and working conditions
were to be maintained.
Ask Mine Investigation
A Congre ssional investigation into
alleged "unspeakable outrages'' in
flicted upon the mine workers by the
"coal interests" in West Virginia is
demanded in resolution unanimously
adopted.
The convention denied A. P. Matthew,
of the Montreal Trades and Labor
Council, permission to introduce reso-
luton "atfecting conditions in Ire
land"

sure, however, that should Mr..
Preus file he will be a very
strong contender for the office
and it is very likely that he will
be the next occupant of the gov
ernor's chair in that event.
Mr.. Preus is finishing up his
sixth year as state auditor where
he has been a competent public
official and has served efficient
ly. Previous to that he was
state insurance commissioner
and was at one time secretary
to Senator Knute Nelson at
Washington, d, c.
Mr.. Preus is a very fluent
speaker and is of the type Of
men who does not get up and
shake his fists and "holler" but
speaks with knowledge and dig
nifty and in convincing manner.
If we had had more men bf his
caliber as speakers during the
war there would have been less
misunderstanding. He did not
get up and shout about disloy-
alists but gave his arguments in
a brief and precise manner and
left it with his audience to draw
their own conclusions.
We do not know how Mr..
Preus stands on the tonnage tax
question and are tempted to
say that we do not care, as it
seems that we should do more
careful selecting Of public off
cial than to vote for them sim
ply because they are for this or
that measure. The state is per-
haps about equally divided on
the tonnage tax question. Then
is it fair that because some in
dividual jumps up and says that
he is for a tonnage tax that he
get half of the votes Just on the
strength of that. assuming that
he is not big enough to fiji the
office of governor? The tonnage
tax is only one question, and for
that matter may not enter into
this campaign at all. There are
many other things to consider
when selecting a man for the i'm
portant office of governor.

building can be erected and kept
in good condition at small cost.
Let us remember that while
Askov is a prosperous commun-
Iity, it is not a wealthy public.
To carry out successfully these
two above mentioned prospects
will unquestionably prove a fin
ancial burden.
Furthermore, there is another
side to this question more i'm
portant than the financial and it
is the moral side. Let me re-
mind those persons so keenly in
terested in this community hall
undertaking that even under the
best community leadership and
strictest regulation the hall of
the kind proposed here easily
lends itself to moral dangers.
Any thinking man of Askov must
in the nature of the case, agree
with me, looking at the matter
from the moral standpoint, that
the school as a community center
will likely prove the safer of the
two aforementioned institu-
tions.
In conclusion let me add that
if our school should be made the
social center of the community,
we shall likely in the future wit
ness. not only the creation of
purer social atmosphere. but also
an awakening of the public to
higher appreciation of education
and its values, or in simple
terms. an awakening of the pub
lie interest in our school.
