THE PALACE.

It has taken the picture screen to prove beyond all semblance of doubt that the popularity and ability of Babe Ruth "Coussus of Swat" are not confined to the baseball diamond for in the leading role of "Headin' Home" the smashing maker of four base blows emphasizes the fact that he can act "Headin' Home" Is the leading screen feature at the Palace for Sunday evening and Monday, Tues day and Wednesday. In 'Headin' Home" Babe Ruth is presented as boy in a small town, who is devoted to baseball, then of course, as the case of all diamond stars of the sand lot variety. The most discussed man in America, who Is given more newspaper space than he President, scores another triumph as the hero of "Headin' Home" The story has its thrills and sensations. its grips and heart interest, in short "Headin' Home" is an ideal screen drama Added to the picture value as an interest winning photo drama is the presence of Babe Ruth to make it likable to the great army of American baseball fans. It shows Ruth in diamond action
 The story of the little village boy, play ing his game in the lots as member of the country team; of his rise in the base ball profession until he becomes the out standing figure of the national game, IS a typical American tale reminding one strongly of those Alger books he read when a youngster.

AGENCY TELLS HOW
 SPY SYSTEM WORKS
Head of Federal Board Precipi- tates Marine Trouble by
 Drastic Order.

New York, May l3. - The private de- tective agency, known as the "Foster Ser vice" has forwarded this notice to busi- ness men:
 II will say that if we are employed be- fore any union or organization is formed by the employed, there will be no strike and no disturbance. This does not say that there will be no unions formed but it does say that we will control the ac- tivities of the union and direct its policies, provided we are allowed a free hand by our clients.
 If a union is already formed and no strike is on or expected to be declared within 30 or 60 days, although we are not in the same position as we would be in the above case, we could-and I believe with success-carry on an intrigue which would result in factions, disagreement, resignations of officers and general de- crease in membership; and, if strike were called, we would be in a position to furnish information, etc., of contemplated assaults"
 This agency is headed by Robert J. Foster, who was declared in contempt by the legislative committee which IS prob ing the building trust in this city. Eos ter refused to inform the committee re- garding his connections with the National Iron Erectors' league and other anti union organizations.

BENSON FORCES
 SHIPPING STRIKE
Foster Offers to Bust Up Unions if Clients Give Him Free
 Hand.

Washington, May I3.-Admiral Benson of the shipping board has an nounced that any company that Oper- ates ships owned by the government that agrees to last years wage rates to marine engineers and seamen, will have their ships taken from them.
 The workers are striking against wage reductions that will total more than 45 per cent because of the re- establishment of the I2-hOur day and the abolishmcnt of overtime. The shipping board and vessel owners are a unit in opposing the scafarcrS.
 The workers made every attempt to avoid strike. .Thcy offered 10 leave the entire question to President Harding and accept any dcCIS!01 he would make Admiral Benson re fused, on the ground that he did not want to ''burdcn the President" The workers asked if American citizens would be given first preference in cin- pIoyment and second preference tc workers who have declared their in teutIon of becoming American citi- zcns. Admiral Benson refused tc give this pledge and profc5%'ona patriots ignore the first statement O it's kind made by an American maya officer.
 The men forwarded a Commurica ton to the President in which thc& offered to abide by any decision Inc would make The President referred the matter to members of his Cabi ret, who discussed the mater Witl the interested parties.

Electricians Win
 Out in Wage Fight
Have Only $ Out of 175 Members Now Out of Work and Big
 Demand for Them

With only about 25 of their 175 members out of work ,and the re- mainder working at the old rate of wages and under the regular working agreement, Electrical Workers Union No. 90 of New Haven has at least made one dent into the ranks of the employers seeking to reduce the wage of building tradesmcn all over the state. The electricians, like the other trades, were marked for the slaughter but for some reason or an other the bosses seem to have given in to them and are employing all the help needed and at the old rates of pay and under the formal working agreement existing before the wage cut was attempted.
 In addition to that the calls for electricians from other parts of the state are being received at the local headquarters daily and no mention of any reduction in wages is had. There fore the electricians are going along very well in the crisis and in addition are rapidly settling grievances with employers who at first held out It IS expected therefore that within a few days every available skilled me chanic will be back on the job.

Senate May Dust

To Replace Labor Men on Wage Council by Public"
 Representatives.

Washington, May 13.-Onc result of the senatts investigation of the railroad question may result i'll ousting the repre- sentatives of labor and the railroads from the railway labor board and appointing all representatives of the public" The plan is to appoint some railroad mana gers, but not as railroad men uSt ordl- nary, plain, everyday Americans who have no interest except that justice be served. This explanation is thoroughly understood by railroad owners.
 The Washington correspondent for the Philadelphia North American says the change is being backed by railroad cor porations "because the men who are be- hind 1t i'll the senate are known to be friendly to railroad intrests and th1S cir curnstance has been made the basis tor the assertion what is desired most IS to get rid of the representatives ot labor on the board.
 As now constituted the board consists of nine members, divided equally between representatives of the public, railroad workers and railroad management

Trolleynen to Ask
 Only Present Wage
Unions Approve Agreement Drawn By Executive Board and Now
 Ready for Company

Following formal votes taken this week, the State Conference Board of the Trolleymen's Union will within a few days present to the Connecticut Company officials, an agreement for the next work ing year which starts on June 1 and which agreement will suggst that rates of wages remain as at present and asks for nothing but few minor changes in the working rules. While some individual members of the unions about the state were in clined to ask for an increased wage, the vast majority believed the wage should remain as 1t is now because of the unset tied affairs of the company and the coun- try.
 The company, 1t is unofficially reported, is preparing a reduction in wages, from 10 to l5 per cent being the figures inti- mated. While these reports have come to the cars of the trolleymen, no action has been taken upon them nor will be until such an attempt IS officially made by the company. The men will resist any wage cut now, pointing out, and justly, that their present wage IS not near the level paid other lines of workers even with the cuts forced upon some crafts,

THE BIJOU.

"What's Your Reputation Worth? = Could you answer that question: Is there any standard by which you could place a cash value on your rep utation? Isn't 1t worth everything to you? It was to Clara Deene, yet she sacrificed 1t that the man she loved
 might be happy, and that is the theme
 of ''What's Your Reputation Worth - in which Corinne Griffith is being starred at the BUou theater starting on Sunday night. Corinnc Griffith appears at her best as Clara Decne, private secretary to Anthony Blake. The production requires hundreds of extra players and many specially con structed sets. One scene which is shown in few seconds, represents a dream palace. Another massive set

Thompsonville Company H a S Evictions When State Probate
 is Threatened.

ThompsonvilIc, May I3.-undoubt- cdIy frightened by the threat of a state investigation of the conditions surrounding the strike in the mills, the officials of the igclOWHartford Carpet company here this week didn't press the eviction orders on tenants employed in the mills and who had once been on strike. The time limit for the evictions expired Tuesday and was allowed to lapse, following the report that Governor Lake in answer to appeals for his intervention, was preparing an investigation. The families to be cvicted had in the main returned to work at the company's $ rate They were then fired and by the company.
 their nth wek of the strike on Mon- day and have remained 100 per cent. loyal to the union during the strike. They have positively refused the cut of 20 per cent. in wages. The loss to the carpet company must be placed at large figures. An }innovation is being introduced at the mill this week. All employees must have iden- tifcation cards properly completed before being allowed to pass the watchmcn. The card contains the name, age, address, and description of each employe. The company has also increased the hours of labor from IS hour to 50 hours week. Nearly ,ooo hands are still idle owing to the attitude of the weavers depart ment and to other causes at the plant

MASTER PLUMBERS
 HAVE MERRY ROW
 BELTINC HARTFORD
Peeved Because Bosses in Capital City Refuse To Cut Men
 Wages.

Hartford master plumbers, who in sisted on paying their journey1nen the standard wage of $l an hour, got sc- we're slap on the wrist and almost lost its membership in the state association at the state convention in Hartford We'd nesday The rest of the bunch from around the state which had joined the "open shOp-Wage reduction movement of forcing 80 cents an hour on the workers were quite peeved about Hartford's ac- tion and didn't hesitate to say so. Never theless the Hartford bosses stood pat and declared they would continue to pay the $l an hour.
 Charles U. Nuemann of West Haven, who sometimes employs as many as "one" plumbers, led the attack on the Hartford men and for his reward was elected to the august office of the state association. Mir. Neumann carried on in the style that has made him famous at Orange town meetings and several times sprung to hlS feet in indignation at the Hartford men S action and had to be called to order. Any one who differed with him got 1t flgura- lively and verbally 'in the neck and the chairman had to nterpose time and again to keep order in the debate.
 If our association means anything 1t ought to mean that in a time like this we will stand together in our wage troubles," complained MT. Neuman and a Waterbury delegate backed him up by admitting that his and the other cities ot the state are jerk towns" and if they could stand for the rumpus caused by reduction he didn't see why Hartford, the greatest and best city in the state, couldn't do so also.
 Reports as to what happened when the cut was forced on the men were asked and from New Haven, Waterbury, Bridgeport, Stamford and all over came the answer, We cut the wages and they (the mem went on strike"
 After considerable discussion 1t was agreed that 1t was decidedly improper for the state association to try to force Hart ford employers to do as the general as sociation saw fit and after that things quieted down and ''routine business was transacted"

 For the production Miss Griffith had a score of new gowns designed Many of them will be shown at open ings during the coming season Miss Griffith has a reputation (which IS worth great deal 10 hcr) of being the best dressed woman on the screen today and the gowns worn in this latest picture of hers are said to out strip all others, and that hasn't any thing to do with their present styles either

CIVIL SERVICE IS OFFICIALLY DEAD
 IN CONNECTICUT
Not Even Taft s Name on Petition Carries Weight With Legis-
 lature.

Hartford, May 13.-Civil Service has
 been dctinately kicked out of ConneCti- cut and even the name of Former PreSi- dent William Howard Taft on a petition to a bill to restore 1t means nothing Ill
 the merry lives of the gentlemen who compose the present legislature, according
 to their action of yesterday. On motion of Senator Seymour the petition and bill
 were taken from the table in the Senate
 and then moved its reference to the judi Ciary committee leaving the bill on the table. Senator Banks objected, pointing
 out the constitution provides the right of the people to petition the legislature on any matter and both bill and petition were grouped again.
 Senator Hall of Wilmington objected to
 either, declaring both new business and the petition just a subterfuge to get the civil service bill in again. A row arose l on the procedure but finally both bill and petition were accepted and Senator Rudd moved that both be rejected.
 Senator Banks objected. He was sur- prsed he said, to think that the senator | would want to show any lack of courtesy
 to a former President of the United States and refuse to give him and fellow petitioners the right of hearing. He moved reference of the matter to the judiciary committee.
 Senator Hall pointed out that the peti- tioners had had ample time to be heard. A civil service bill was the first to be introduced in the session, he said, and for
 the very purpose of allowing adequate time for ample consideration, 1t had been left on the table for several months. Senator Brooks took the same position. "They're trying to put over trick on us through a constitution point, he declared, adding that the Legislature, after due consideration had shown its attitude to be against civil service law in COnneCtl- cut.
 II would like to ask the senator if he
 thinks ex-President Taft is trying to put anything over on the Senate,' inquired Senator Seymour.
 If he didn't try himself, he was used
 by somebody who did" retorted Senator
 BrooIs quickly.
 Senator Hall of Wilmington moved that the matter be indefinitely postponed.
 Senator Banks protested that such ac- tion would be lodging the issue. The
 judiciary committee didn't even have to give a hearing on the matter, he said, but the Senate should not withhold the matter from the committee so that 1t could take such action as 1t deemed proper. Never during the time was speaker of the House was petition turned down in the fashion proposed, he said.
 The motion to postpone indefinitely was lost on rising vote, and the matter was referred to the judiciary committee.
