a like record during the same

a like record Curing the same season.
 New Haven football gossip indi- cates that the Bridgeport A. 6 A. eleven is going to face a strong lineup in the Williams eleven next Sunday. The Wil1ia ms team has been bolster ing up it's machine and has signed quarterbacks in the State and Johnny Nagle of baseball fame, who played against the locals on Charley Brick ley's team a few Sundays ago.
 Fifteen players have been re- served by the Waterbury Club, but several old faces will be miss ing, among them George Moshier who filled in as emergency catcher during the latter part or heirner, the Bridgeporter, who played shortstop. Tho latter fielded exceIlentIy but his stick work is considered too weak by Joe Cosgrove.
 the plank is outfielder Clarence Pickup. Pick" won the crown for chief disturber last season, although his playing wes up to standard. Pickup was in several club rows and will probably figure in a trade with some other Class A club.
 New Haven is looking forward
 to a bumper football jam on
 Weise Field on Thanksgiving when the Buffalo AH-Americans, who have never been scored
 against. will be the opponents of the Williams team. Extra stands are being erected which will
 bring the seating capacity of the park up to 15,OOO.

New York. Nov. 4-The agitation at the offices of the New York Yankees over the report from Chi cago that the worlds series checks of Babe Ruth. Bob Meusel and Bill Piercy had been held up by Com missioner Landis was not greater than that created commonly when one smoker asks another for a. light.

Struggle and Strife Lie
Ahead for Labor i'm 1921

1t is truth amply proven by scien-
tific research that low productivity is
the result, not of a conscious desire on
.he part of workmen to withhold their
effort, but of an actual and positive
maladJustment Of the machinery and
forces of production. The readjust-
ment of these forces SO that there NAV
be proper and free releasing Of en-
ergy is one of the problems to which
deep thought is being given and toward
She working out of which satisfactory
progress may be expected during the
coming year.
-4laoays Eager to Cooperate
Those that have teen falr-minded
have discovered that the trade union
movement is an agency always eager
to cooperate with those who are sim
ce1ely desirous- of advancing the COM
mon welfare. and that only through
the trade union movement can there
be had an adequate and accurate ex-
preston Of the viewpoint. and OF the
needs and aims Of the working peo-
pie OF our country.
1t is unfortunate, not only for the
working people, but for the whole ma
tion,. that there should be at this
crucial period, when cooperation be-
tween all is so sorely needed, so many
expressions of the blunt, brutal and
aggressive spirit Of tyranny and au-
tccracy. The labor movement. how
ever, will not deceive itself either as
t. the present or as to the outlook for.
the future, no matter how seriously
deception may be attempted by others.
The men of labor Of our time have
PASSED from the conditions of labor
a:s typified by the man with the hoe.
lr addition to being workers. they are
sovereign citizens. They have attained
The stature of manhood, with intelli-
gence and character, and they are not
hfely to be forced down in their stand
arcs or backward from their mapnif-
cent achievements.
Labor faces 1921 hopeful for the
lest, ready to offer its cooperation to

Condition of UNEMPLOYMENT

y
There is also before US a condition
OF unemployment created by the arbi-
trary closing of industrial establish
ments, development which has fol-
lowed so closely upon the heels of a
vast employers propaganda for in
creased production as to make the two
events practically simultaneous. and
therefore, in the eyes of great n.any
persons ridiculous. However much the
employer and the financier may be af-
fected by the slowing down of indus
trial processes, of which unemployment
IS the dramatic outstanding feature,
the working people feel it far more in
money and less Of everything that is
necessary to the proper sustenance of
life. Therefore the problem of unem-
ploymens is a problem which in all Of
it's great clementals is strictly and dis
tinctly a problem of labor 1t is a
part of the duties of the trade union
movement to find ways of making un-
employment less acute and to find ways
to, impress upon the employers and
upon the public generally the wisdom
and the practicability and advisnbility
OF the adoption Of labor's suggestions.
In relation to the question of in
SASooSA P1OOuSIiOA d bTtaC Qcdl has
been said. A great many accusations
have been lcveled against the workers,
and most Of what has been said in this
direction has been the result of de-
sire actually to reduce wages. Much
also has been said as the result Of mis-
information. The fact which must be
apparent to any one today is that any
possible curtailment Of production by
working people would be insignificant
and meaningless in the face of that
complete stoppage, that 100 per cent
abandonment of creative effort that oc-
ours when the factory door is closed,
with the workers on the outside 1t is
part Of the present problem of the
trade union movement and part Of the
outlook for 1921 so to edjust relation
ships between the factions :ital to our
industrial life as to make possible an
increased productivity, without making
that result sheer strain upon the
physical resources of the workers alone.

Policy OF. Expenditures

OSeCy O'1 LIpeHU1tuTeS
The necessary and wise policy on tho
part Of the railroads with regard to
capital expenditures was undoubtedly
we'll expressed by Interstate Commerce
Commissioner Aitchison, who, before
the National Association of Railway
and Utility Commissioners, or Noyem-
Der 10, said:
The present financial situation.
coupled with the apparent downward
trend or construction cost, makes it
seem prudent not to engage upon any
undue or. avoidable construction pro-
gram until conditions become more
normal"
The railroad problem II tho country,
which was already coming to = head
prior to tho war, and which was merely
intensified by tho war period, arose,
from the fact that conditions surround
ing railroad investment had been so
altered for the worse that the rail-
roads we're no longer able to keep we'll
ahead OF the country in their provision
of facilities. The transportation act of
l92O hopes to solve this problem by
providing IN essence that the country,
through the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, will pay adequate rates for
adequate service. Congress has, there
fore, sought to lay the legislative basis
for a new era Of railroad expansion.
But the actual achievement of this is
still dependent upon the carriers at
tanning the 6 per cent earning power
contemplated by the transportation act,
and upon the worldwide adjustment Of
conditions Of money ard credit which
would enable per cent industry to
draw out Of the investment market
large sums Of money for permanent i'm
provements. While apparently that
time may not arrive during the wear
1921, it is the hope and belief of the
writer that the present year will mark
substantial progress toward an ade-
quate earning power on the part of the
railroads, and also substantial progress
in the downward readjustment Of the
price of money and credit. There is
good reason to hope, as stated by B. NJ,
Anderson jr., of the Chase National
Bank, that "for perhaps the first time
in our history our railroads will be in
good credit at time when prices are
at bottom."

New-York tribune., 1921-01-02

'Perhaps never again will
there be such bargains in
investment securities as the
market now offers and SO
we say to you all, and this
means you-scrape together
all the money you can get
without borrowing and buy
investment securities-and
buy them now"
We gave you Thursday an
example Of how a bond that had
originally been sold at par and
could now be bought for 1919 Of
its face value was not only just as
safe so far as the prompt payment
of both interest and principal were
concerned, but also why it was
much safer.
This letter is primarily to
urge discrimination in purchases.
While some securities have be-
come more safe, it goes without
saying that some securities have
become less safe. That is why
we are urging all Of those who
do not have a professional
knowledge of investment securi-
ties either to be guided by our
advice or to rely upon one Of
the many thoroughly reliable houses
that deal in investment securities.
Generally speaking, we also
advise sticking strictly to invest
ment securities rather than to
speculative securities. 1t is pos
sible to secure handsome in
come yield and the assurance of
profit without going beyond
high class bonds and preferred
stocks. Prices have been carried
to unprecedented low levels by
the forced sales of stocks held
by those who have purchased on
margins and are unable to sup
ply additional margins in a fall
ing market. There will be a
partial recovery in market price
as soon as this forced selling is
ovcr-and we think the most of
it will be cleared up not later
than the first week in January.
Very few true investment securi-
ties are carried in these mar
gIned accounts and yet their
market value is influenced by
these forced sales. As interest
rates become normal the value
Of securities will 60 back to
their old levels.
We do not promise that there
will be full recovery in three
months, or even in three years,
but 1t is bound to occur sooner
or later, for we are bound to
have normal interest rates again.
The longer securities prices are
low the longer will be your op-
portunlty to accumulate more
funds and invest them advan-
tageously. Even with invest
ments limited to strictly high
grade bonds and preferred stocks
we believe it is possible, in addition
to getting handsome income, also
to realize profit of % or more.
While we solicit your patron
age, we think it highly impor-
tant that selections be made BY
experienced people in whom you
have complete confidence. We
urge you Ito buy, and to buy
now" and do not represent that
we are the only house that can
furnish you with good, safe Sc
curities. There are lots of bar
gains and lots of investment
houses that will serve you to the
best of their ability, the same as
we will do. Any investments
lett to our judgment will be
treated as honor transactions.
