CAPITAL CROWD FOR CONGRESSMAN
 AT LARGE HERE
Tilson, Et Als., Figure 'Twould Be Easier Picking for
 G. O. P. Thereby.

Washington, Feb. 4.-When the Con- necticut Legislature takes up the ques- ton of red1str1Ct1ng, under the re- apportionment which allows Connecticut a sixth representative in the national House of Representatives, 1t will have before 1t recommendation from the present House members, urging that no new district line be drawn for at least two years. The present members feel that the new member might well be elected at large. The method was fol- lowed in Connecticut for several years after the states membership in the low CT house of Congress was increased from four to five, George L. Lilley of Waterbury, afterwards governor, being congressman-at-lar from 1903 to 1909 present congressman from the Third district, was his successor, serving as congressman from the whole of Con- necticut from 1909 to 1913. Connecti- cut, therefore, had a congressman-at- large 10 years. MT. Lilley serving three terms, or six years Ill that capacity, and MT. Tilson two terms, or four years.
 The Connecticut House members say that the vote in the recent election was abnormal in many respects-that the WOmen'S vote was new and what the normal women's vote will be cannot be determined for several years. The great amount of war work done in Connecti- cut manufacturing plants which brought in many new residents was also an ab normal condition. The House members from Connecticut have conferred on this matter and are agreed that to elect the new member at large for at least his first term would be by far the least bothersome and best course until nor mai conditions are restored.

TRADES COUNCIL
 GETS REPLIES ON
 LOCAL MACHINISTS
Gompers and Johnston Denounce Recent Withdrawal as
 Contrary to Rules.

The recent withdrawal of Elm Lodge 42O, Machinists, from the New Haven Trades Council was the subject of in- tereSting communications at the Coun- Gil meeting last night when letters were received from Samuel Gompers and William H. Johnston, international president of the Machinists, declaring the withdrawal was contrary to the constitution of both the machinists asso- citation and the American Federation of Labor and that steps were being taken to have the action revoked. In accord ance with the rules the withdrawal was reported by the Council to both the A. F. of L. and the Machinists organiza- ton. The replies from MT. Gompers and Mir. Johnston both quoted the con- stitutional provisions and MT. Johnston added that he had started procedure to have the local union conform with the constitution of the organization and apply for reinstatement.
 Communications were also received from Senators Mclean and Brandegee and Congressman Tilson relative to re- Quests sent to them that they support the appropriation for the completion of the great Wilson dam and also for the restoration of trade with Russia. MT. Mclean answered he would support the dam proposition and didn't believe action necessary on the Russian pro position as trade is not now restricted. MT. Brandegee, as usual, promised to give the matters his careful attention when they came up," while Mir. Tilson supported the dam matter and gave a long summary of the conditions existing with Russia saying trade was not now

GOVERNOR URGES
 STRICT ADHERENCE
 TOLAW AND ORDER
And Fellow Camels at McKin- ley Dinner Respond Right
 Royalty.

Mr. Postmaster and Fellow Cam els," greeted Gov. E. J. Lake to the several hundred gathered at the Hotel Taft on Tuesday night to celebrate Mckinley day and then went on to de- clare that greater adherence to the law and order of the land was necessary to prevent this country from being thrown into a state of chaos. It was with that idea in mind, he said, that he had called in the sheriffs of the state to discuss means of dealing with the situation ln Connecticut and then vert on to declare that the fact that the country had ap- plauded Coolidge's firm stand in the Boston police strike showed the country at large wanted law and order.
 Whether the country wanted law and order or not, great many of the diners clearly indicated that they didn't want a certain law and order which took the joy out of life at banquets, and while the governor may have addressed them as fellow camels, 1t was cinch that all present hadn't gone the fabled seven days without a drink Of course there was nothing in the liquid line but White Rock on the tables but the mysterious directions to room so and so" and turn to your left on this corridor" gave the impression that the party cer tainly wasn't dry.
 The governor was in New Haven for two days and got ample evidence that being a newly elected governor with a lot of appointments to make is no cinch. He was at the Foot Guard ball on Mon day night and Major Gilson almost had to detail a squad to protect him from eager politicians with something or someone to boost. The same situation prevailed before, at and after the Mckinley dinner and when the governor got away finally he certainly had a head chock full of ideas, whether he will

BUILDING TRADES
 MAY FORM COOP
 CONTRACTING FIRM
Prepare for Portending Fight With Bosses Peculiar
 Meeting on Today.

Reports of the activities of the mast CT builders not only in New Haven but about the state, which portend fight to cut the prevailing scale of wages when the agreements expire in April, con- tinue to be received by the leaders in the building trades lines. They lead to tn conclusion that the employers, under the guise of 'Ereducing the cost of build ing" are not only preparing to reduce the wage scale but to join the "open shop" movement and disrupt the trades organizations if possible.
 While the labor men are not seeking a fight and in fact do not desire one, they nevertheless will not dodge 1t if it is forced upon them. This Is especially true of the New Haven local of the Carpenters and Joiners Brotherhood, where the subject has been seriously dis cussed and the advisabi1tiy of organiz- ing cooperative contracting and build ing association is being seriously con sidered. The plans are as yet of course, cussions already had indicate that such an association. which might include bricklayers, p1asterers, plumbers and other tradesmen, could be launched financially and readily be in a position to enter the contracting field if clash should come between the men and their present mployers.
 The contractors of the state are hold ing today in Waterbury, what Is styled as a state convention of building con- tractors. The purpose Is said to be to form a Connecticut Contractors Asso- ciation, adopt bylaws and elect officers. The leaders in the movement state that the idea is the lowering of building costs but glance at the men scheduled to attend leads to the belief that it's an open shop movement, as those in the van are the men who have bitterly op- posed Organized Labor in the past.
 Similar associations have just been indicted and dissolved broadcast i'll New York where the Lockwood probe showed up that they were nothing more nor less than price fixing aggregations which fought Organized Labor and collective bargaining and at the same time so controlled building prices and materials that they kept the cost up to the high peak. J. A. Mckay and H. A. Lonard are two from New Haven scheduled to attend the meeting. MT. Mckay was clerk of the master build CTS here a year ago when they started a fight with the carpenters and there is nothing to indicate that he has changed his attitude since then.

IMPORTS EMPLOYES
 FOR OVERTIME WORK
Rockville Mill Boards Men Rather Than Pay Extra
 Wage.

Rockville, Feb. 1.-The Rock Manu- featuring company, which has been run ming it's plant full time for the past sev- eral days, commenced working over time last evening, with the aid of em- ployes brought especially to Rockville Last week the Rock company asked its employees to work until 9 o'clock nights for four nights each week.
 The picking room and the carding de- partment accepted, but the spinning and dressing departments refused to work overtime unless they received time and a half' pay for all overtime work Without the spinning department it was impossible to keep the other depart ments busy and the work stopped. The officials of the firm, who had accepted a large order were anxious to hold 1t and placed advertisements in a Worces- ter paper for spinners.
 According to one of the spinners more than 50 spinners were telerhoning and writing for the jobs within half an hour after the paper was published. Twelve of the spinners were hired and the mill officials sought quarters for them at teh Rockville House.

Chicago, and the like.
 The entire resources of the Interna- tional organization will be at the dis posal of the workers to win the fight, Mir. Mcfarland declared. No one who is forced to quit his work to win the fight will suffer. There is in the union treasury something like $2,30000O and every cent of it will be spent to win the fight, if fight becomes necessary. With this available, in addition to the local treasuries, in the places where agreements are not made, the union will be able to carry the struggle on in definitely he pointed out
 A contest is anticipated in this. sec tlon of the country, the local and state typothetae having declared against the 44-hour week and started campaign of propaganda to turn public opinion against the printers. The assurances of President Mcfarland therefore added whatever confidence the men may have needed and the fight, if it comes, will be waged valiantly here.

 The session yesterday was expected to hear the unions reply to the request of w. w. Atterbury, vice-president of fore the board on Monday in behalf of the American Association of Rail way Executives, urging immediate ab- rogation of the national agreement. The labor board chamber was filled with spectators to hear the employees reply to the Atterbury request but labor rep resentatives failed to appear at the last minute and upon their request, the board granted them until Monday to present their side.
 E. T. Winter, chairman of the car riers' comtnitte, read supplementary statement from General Atterbury in the nature of a reply to charges made by Mir. Jewell i'll a telegram to the Presi- dent that the roads could not support their claims of threatened financial dis aster. This condition obtained, he de- clared, despite the fact that the GA com panies had reduced their forces by 20O,- GOO men since September 1, 1920.

Printers Head Urges Limit
 L1 Fight For *'44-Hours'

The members of the New Haven Local of the Typographical Union can decide for themselves, and their decis- ion will be backed up by the Interna- tional Union, in the controversy with the job printers Of this city over an in crease in wages, according to the declaration of International President John Mcfarland before a crowded special meeting of the local union held last Friday afternoon. Their destiny is in their own hands. Mir. Mcfarland said, ant the international official board will not interfere with their solving of 1t.
 As to the general institution of the 44-hour week on May 1, Mir. Mcfarland was emphatic in instructing the local officers to pull out of every job shop in the jurisdiction where the new work ing scale has not been agreed to on that date. Agreements have already been signed between local unions and the employing printers in 85 cities of the country, he said, and these include many of the largest ones, such as New York,
