ALDERMEN TO DEMAND COMFORT
 STATION ON THE LOWER GREEN

members of the park board, which has charge of the Green, and who have de- clared that the comfort station cannot be located thereon no matter what the public at large wants. Two sites were sug- geSted one for ornamental kloskS at the Court street entrance to the Green, with the present walk running between the sections and the other for a se1ni-ciTcular ornamental building back of the plaza at the Bennett Fountain and not interfere with the walks. Either plan from the designs submitted would add attractive ness to the Green but the park conmis- sioners have been obdurate and they are a power unto themselves have been able to hold the fort
 The comfort station project was launch cd by the New Haven Trades Council six or seven years ago and after months of preliminary arguments, was finally ord cred and work started up behind Trinity church. Injunctions stopped that and 1t has been hanging fire ever since The Trades Council at their meeting two weeks ago adopted a resolution to renew the agitation for the station and If pos sible compel it's immediate erection. The proposed action by President Murphy of the board of aldermen, will probably meet with this result and will at any rate bring out emphatic declaration that the public wants that station and wants 1t on the Green whether the park board does or not.

SENATE DEFEATS SALES TAX PLOT
 BY SPLIT VOTE
Democrats Solidly Against It and Are Joined By Y Repub
 liCans

Washington. Nov 1.-The sales tax was rejected last night by the Senate. The vote, 43 against to g for, was on a proposal by Senator Smoot, republican, Utah, for a l per cent levy with eXemp- tiOnS provided in the case of sales by farmers of the products of their farms, sales by public utilities and those by the United States or any foreign government or any state or territory, the army and navy and hospitals. The democrats voted solid against the sales tax and were joined by seventeen republicans. Brandegee and Mclean did not vote either way
 This vote was regarded generally as decisive of the whole question of a sales tax at this time, but immediately after it had been announced, Senator Shoot offered another amendment, embodying a business sales tax of One-half of 1 per cent, on gross sales in excess of S6,OOO a year. This went over until today, and Senator Snoot said he did not think con- sideratiOn of 1t would consume much time.
 Before taking up the sales tax the Senate perfected the committee bill with the adoption of some additional amend mcnts offered by individual senators. The program for tomorrow was some what indefinite as democratic leaders had not finally made known their plans with regard to the soldier bonus amendment It was expected, however, that these would be reached tomorrow. and Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, in charge of the tax bill, said he thought 1t might safely be said that final vote on the measure could be reached by Saturday night

TO AGAIN ATTEMPT
 BAKERS WAGE CUT
Head of Thompson Firm Said to Be Seeking Support of State
 Shop Owners.

Preparations for another wage cut ting drive against the bakers are again in the works, according to re- ports made to the New Haven Trades Council at the meeting last night and while starting here, are planned to extend all over the state early next year. The agitation is said to be started by Paul $. Thompson, president of the $. $. Thompson Baking company of this city, and also an officer of the State Master Bakers association. Mr. Thompson's shop is still on the strike list of the bakers and has been since the strike of more than year ago. He is now said to be writing other master bakers of the state asking cooperation to reduce wages again, according to the report to the council.
 The council was also requested to use its efforts against the Quality crullers of MeFiden, wlsieh-are made by a non-union firm and being ship ped in here and sold in many restaur- ants The sale is not only unfair to union men but to local bakery men and is therefore objected to-

WARN TRADESMEN TO PAY NO HEED TO
 "FLORIDA BOOM''
Reports of Work Aplenty Buncombe to Flood Labor Market and
 Reduce Wages.

The Florida Federation of Labor through it's secretary, K. B. Lovett, today sent warning to Secretary 1l M. Ornburn of the Connecticut Fcdera- tion, to caution workers in this vicin- ity,~ especially building tradesmcn, to pay no attention to tht advertise ments and reports coming from Flor ida that there is big industrial boom on there and that many workers are needed "The crust of the matter is, writes Secretary Lovett, "that the re- ports are solely fox the purpose of flooding the state with mechanics who when they cannot find work, the non union shoppers will attempt to use to drive wages even lower than they are at present" While there is little building going on it Is insignificant, he adds, and that there arc 10 men for every job available.
 Florida is a fine place 10 spend the winter if the tourist has money 10 support himsclf," says MT. Lovett, but those who come here this winter expecting to work out their expenses are going to be disappointed for two reasons: there is little work to be had and the second that the city IS not allowing those who use free camping grounds to engage in any occupation while camping on the city property. House rents are all out of reason and very scarce at any -PrieteS- .-~--
 The warning is given Ordinarily to prevent men going to Florida in the hope of finding plenty of work and then finding nothing 10 do.

SANFORD TO LAND WALTERS JOB
 UNLESS UILMAN CAN INTERFERE

current in republican state circles, the colonel, Governor Lake, Attorney General Healy, John T. King and a few others are lining up to do Rora- back and incidentally in the doing, dump Senator George F. Mclean for a renomination and give the nomina- tion to Governor Lake. They claim now to have enough votes on the state central committee to oust Rora- back any time they desire and there fore it may be possible that Colonel Ullman may be able to slide some one other than Sanford in for the county commissionerShip
 The plans of the anti Roraback k ring have been somewhat upset by the announcement of States Attorney Hugh Alcorn of Hartford that he is a candidate for the senatorial nomina- ton. Alcorn and Healy are pretty thick personally and politically and his entry into the fray is looked upon with wonder by those who know what is going on. They cannot figure whether 1t means he hopes to land the berth through the fight between Mclean and Lake or whether he Is getting in to help out the Hcaly-Lake senator. The combine is reported to have the support of former Senator Morgan c. Bulkeley and if that is so, the political chaos that now domin- ates the republican party throughout the state, bids fair to be much more chaotic in the near future.

Governor Lake to Ap- point Hamden Man to County Commission, He Has Already De- cided.

Unless something very unlocked tor occurs over the weekend, John w. Sanford of Hamden, former sc lcctman and one of the big guns of repuDlcanlsm out there, will be ap- pointed county commissioner to sue ceed ]. D. Walter next week when the latter assumes the office of United States naarshal The appointment will be made by Governor Lake and to head off all importunitics for other tavorite sons, the governor last week let 1t be known to some of the "pow- CTS that be- that his mind was made up to appoint MT. Sanford as soon as the vacancy in the office occurs. Therefore it appears as if the jour neyS of Col. L M. Ullman of this city to Hartford this week, would go for naught and that the colonel is to lose out again, for MT. Sanford is credited with being of Roraback- Eaton, ct als, affiliation.
 This is somewhat surprising, but may possibly be due to the fact that the colonel didn't get busy soon enough, for according to all reports

Medical Beer Fake

The proposed medical beer" is fake and will do few if any good because of and other restrictions people cannot afford to buy II according to delegates from the Brewers Unon to the Trades Council in reports made last night, While 1t is all very well to allow the product ion of beer for medical purposes and that 1t has medical value the brewers insist, nevertheless 1t will be beyond the reach of the hardworking man who needs it the brewers contend
 In the first place a physicians certifi- cate will be impossible to get unless a man IS sick abed perhaps and therefore to the man who needs it as a "bracer" after a hard days work in the mills can- not get 1t and keep within the law.

NO ARBITRATION
 OF MILK STRIKE
Employers Refuse to Adopt Plan
 Favored by Union Leaders.

New York, Nov 4.-Prospects of an early settlement of the strike of 10000 milk wagon drivers, salesmen and platform men, which began this week, vanished when the milk confer ence board, the employers organiza- ton, voted against submitting the matter in dispute to- arbitration.
 The board, in letter given to Health Commissioner Copeland for submission to the strikers meeting al Madison Square Garden, said:
 We deem it unadvisable and un- wise for the public interest merely to defer a problem where, conditions call for solution"
 Earlier in the day union leaders agreed to recommend to the strikers that they return to their jobs on the terms of the old wage agreement, pending a round table discussion with their employers.

A stirring address on Trades Unionism and the necessity of stick ing solidly together to combat the efforts of the Open Shoppers" to disrupt Organized Labor, was made before the New Haven Trades Coun- cil last night by Michael C. Griffin of Norwalk, international representative of the United Hatters of North Amer ica. MT. Griffin compared the labor unions to those of the doctors, law yers and businessmen's unions, and pointed out conclusively that when they could get away with their. or ganizations and the fixing of prices then there is no good reason why the workingman shouldn't be allowed to organize and protect his interests also

 These figures show that there were 0,63o corporations in 1919 that made a profit of not less than 50 per cent. and ill 2,I04 instances prohtS were 100 per cent. and over.
 These profits were announced alter the ingenuity of skilled accountant was taxed to conceal profits, after interest on bonds were paid, and all other charges met, including dcprccla- ton and princely salaries to the management of these concerns.
 If the profits of these o,o30 corpora tions were no higher than 50 per cent, ii means that they would double their invested capital in two years and would still have their complete plant.
