CONVENTION OF
WORLDIMPORTANCE
DIR. PERRY TELLS OF DETROIT
CONDITIONS IN MID
DIE STATES NOT THE BEST.

DR.. H. O. Perry, pastor of the
Methodist Episcopal church at this
place and DR.. w. H. H. Forsyth, dis
trict superintendent in charge of the
Moscow district, returned Thursday
morning from Detroit, where they at
tended a world convention, called for
the purpose of considering world
problems as they affect the Methodist
Episcopal church. The convention
was in session for three days, with
1900 delegates, assembled from all
parts of the world In addition
there was in session on the same
dates a convention of the Detroit
area of the Methodist church, with
1900 delegates. The leading
men in the work of the church were
on the program and some notable
addresses were delivered. Representa-
tives were present also from all the
foreign mission fields.
DR.. Perry, when seen by Star
Mirror representative this morning
stated that the convention was in
every respect wonderful, with it's
large attendance of the church lead
ers, and the inspirational addresses.
1t is a peculiar fact he stated, that
in the city of Detroit there are loca-
ted, as pastors, three of the leading
men in the work of the Methodist
church. Usually each church denom-
ination has one man OF outstanding
ability in each city. The city of De-
troit, he states, has more than a. mil
lion people now, and it's activities are
builded largely around the automo-
bile industry.
DR.. Perry and DR.. Forsyth visited
in the middle states on their way
home, DR.. Forsyth visiting with rela-
tives at Broken Bow, Nebraska, while
DR.. Perry visited Chicago, Omaha and
Lincoln. At Omaha he visited with a
sister and at Lincoln visited with his
aged mother.
Financial conditions, according to
Mr.. Perry, are much better in the
northwest than in the middle states.
In the state of Nebraska there have
been % bank failures since the period
Of readqustment set in, caused by
heavy loans. principally to the far
mers on high priced land, and the
sudden decline in prices of farm
products which made it impossible
for the farmers to meet their obliga
tons, even in part The Nebraska
state bank guaranty law protects the
but does it at the expense
of the banks, and Mr.. Perry states
that the failures are costing the
strong banks a considerable sum of
Crops are good in Iowa and Ne
oraska, but corn has been selling at
as low as 18 cents bushel and is
now selling for from % to 25 cents.
AS in the northwest, the farmers got
away from the livestock end of farm
ng to a great extent during the high
prices Of grain, and now find them
selves with very much depleted
herds or with no livestock at all.
They are straining every resource to
get some livestock ready for the mar
ket again and are looking largely to
he livestock industry for their future
Eighteen cent corn, DR.. Perry says,
Is being grown on land costing from
$500 to as high as $500 an acre.

told Of the various colleges and

schools and colleges function hand
in hand with the states Industries.
Why Idaho students should go to
their state university was shown by
DR.. Upham and he closed with dis
cussion of the problems of the state
in relation to the work of the uni
versity.

Fire Bell But No Fire.

Fire Chief Carl Smith wishes The
Star-Mirror to announce that the fire
bell will ring at o'clock Sunday af-
ternoon, instead of between one and
two o'clock at night, as has been the
custom for the past few weeks, but on
this occasion the bell will not ring to
call out fire fighters. The big bell is
somewhat out of adjustment and it is
the intention to investigate Sunday
afternoon and see what the trouble
lis. 1t will probably be necessary to
try the bell out several times in do
ing this, and notice is given so that
the public may not be unduly alarm
ed.

New London s Ol o II Points to His Vote Against Anti-Strike Bill to Prove It, But Labor Looks Back to Senator Fox.

Senator C. C. Costello of New London, is friend of Labor He says so him. self in defense of charges made against him at the convention of the Connecticut Federation of Labor in Bridgeport last week, in which Senator Costello was shown forth as one of the antagonists of Labor measures in the General Assembly just closed. But "by their deeds shall yc know them' and by Senator Costello s actions in the Legislature was he judged by the labor men and women of the state.
 In his defense Senator Costello points out that he voted against the Anti Strike" bill, which he says was the most important measure affecting Labor that came up during the Legislative session. It is true that he did vote that way but so did 24 other senators that didn't have as much reason to be friendly toward the labor man and woman as Senator Cos tello Senator Costello doesn't say that he voted against and worked against the compensation bill introduced by Organ ized Labor to make ConneCtiCut's law as good as any i'll the country He didn't say that when other Labor measures were being ruthelesS1y killed in the senate he not only did not stand by but helped in the killing.

TROLLEYMEN AGAIN
 REJECT WAGE CUT
Turn Down Company's Second Offer by Big Majority in
 Referendum.

By substantial majorities the trolley men of the state in a referendum taken Wdnesday in the various cities, rejected a compromise offer of the trolley con- panies to cut their wages to 4o cents an ihour for beginners, graduating to 54 cents for men employed on the cars for five years. The vote of the men was canvassed by the state conference board at the Hotel Volk on Thursday and the result communicated to the company What the outcome will be IS not yet known but 1t is probably that the entire matter will have to go to arbitration as the rules of the troleynens union pro- vide.
 { The referendum was the second held on the wage question, the week before the men having rejected a cut that would bring them down to 50 cents for old men and A cents for beginners. Before the second vote was taken meetings were held in the various cities, addressed by J. J. Welch, vice president of the International union, who urged the men to accept the company's second offer. His advice didn't prevail as the rank and file of the men believe that their wages are now so much lower than the ordinary trades1nan that they cannot take the reduction offered by the company and live decently.
 They point out also that the company has increased its rates to 10 cents flat, a jump of 100 per cent over old fare rates and has no intention of reducing these rates. Then the pay shouldn't be cut either, they affirm and held to that opinion by their votes

3arbers Offer Wage Cut, Bosses Refuse It
Employers Want 20 Per Cent. Off but Still Insist on Present
 Charge to Patrons.

An agreement, offering a voluntary reduction in wages of five per cent. has been offered to the master bar besr of New Haven by the represent tatives of the Barbers Union and has been tentatively rejected by the em- blowers who insist on a 20 per cent. cut in wages immediately The queS- ton has been in conference for some days and unless an agreement IS erached tomorrow there may be some trouble in the local barber shops on Monday.
 A number of the employing bar bers have already signed the agree ment for the five per cent. reduction offered by the men but these are be- ing worked on by other employers and it is possible that united effort will be made to force the men to further wage reduction. In the mean time the bosses who are opposing the agreement offered by the men insist that the prices charged to customers at present be maintained. This the workers object to, declaring that if the reduction in wages comes about, the saving should be passed along to the patrons of the shops but to this the bosses will not agree.
 The crisis will be reached on Mon day and it behooves all Organized Labor men in the city 10 look for the Barbers Shop Card when patronizing the shops on and after that day. The card will be removed from places where an agreement IS not reached, so there will be no excuse for not knowing the situation in the various shops

GIGANTIC PROTEST TO GOVERNOR OVER
 AMUSEMENT TAX
Levy on Theaters, Sports and Dances Causes General Kick About
 State.

A storm of protest from people all over Connecticut, is now pouring in on Governor Lake against the inn position of the five per cent. theater tax the bill for which was rushed through in the closing days of the re- cent legislative session and IS now before the governor awaiting his sig tax of all theater admisSoionS but on admissions to all anusements and IS therefore being protested by not only theatcr goers but all those who de- dition to the protests being sent to the governor, in every theater, other place of amusement, ball parks and the like, two minute speakers have for some days been urging the effort on the governor, and before the be- ginning of the week it is expected the entire state will have been aroused.
 The tax IS so sweeping that hardly anyone gets away from under 1t, eX- cept possibly church socials. Every one who sees a movie show, vaude- ville, ball game, boxing match or any other form of entertainments, even including dances, must pay an ad- ditional tax to that already imposed by the government. Governor Lake has already heard the murmur of dis content with the law and has express ed himself as disposed to weigh it carefully and consider the wishes of the public on the matter.

Denver, Colo, June I6-Delegates of the United Brotherhood of Car pcnters and Joiners, representing more than 325,ooo workers, this week withdrew from the convention of the Building Trades Department of the American Federation of Labor, when a resolution was adopted suspending any international union that failed to comply with the decisions of the Ma tional Board of Jurisdictional Awards.
 The resolution, which was adopted after stormy debate, was directed at the Carpenters, Union, because of it's refusal to comply with the award rem dered against it by the board in its jurisdictional dispute with the Sheet Metal Workers Union.
 Previous to the adoption of the resolution, the convention indorsed the work of the National Board, which was organized for the purpose of preventing, through arbitration, the tying up of the building industry through jurisdictional and interunion disputes.
