WINCHESTER'S DENIES

The financial slump at Winchestr's occurred shortly afterward and there was no need for pushing the campaign,
 Things are settling down at the big plant now, especially wages Reports about the neighborhood of the shops are to the effect that wages of the old and skilled mechanics have been cut so far and hours so shortened that many men of families cannot now make a living there and are giving up their jobs and going elsewhere to find work Moving vans make parades in the upper Ninth ward daily now, taking families of skill ed help out of town, a host going to Bristol where more attractive conditions are being offered
 A mortgage of %,000,000 to cover a new floating bond issue was put on the plant this week, and when this money becomes available things may become near normal again.

 Next Friday Night.

Everything is set for the second an- nual entertainment and ball of Plumbers and Steamtittcrs Local Union 340, which will take place at Music Hall on Friday evening next, April g. The success of the first event was so great that the committee this year has spared no effort nor expense to make the coming affair far surpass that one and the program outlined indicates that their efforts will meet with success.
 A fine bill of vaudeville and concert entertainment has been arranged. It in cludes such well known entertainers as Cliff Foye, black face comedian; Lil- Han LaF'lame, soloist; Donald Cobey, song and dance; "RoXey', wop comedi- an The Belfry Four, consisting of Thomas Ryan, Charles McKie, Bob Wilson and Harry Loomis: Charles McEnroe, the funny man.

TRUSTS BOOSTS PRICE

for it and the loss if any, would be made up to them in the price later. Then the ice companies began to get together and up went prices until finally Mayor Fitz- Gerald ordered a probe and a committee began to delve into the ice trust affairs It didn't accomplish much but to show up the methods and prohteering of the ice companies, so the mayor established ice stations all over the city and supplied ice at cost to the public which went after 1t. The scheme worked very well and last year the ice barons promised ice at reasonable rates to head off the estab lishment of municipal ice plant which the voters in referendum authorized. They kept within bounds so well that little complaint was heard.
 This year, however, things appear to be different With the excuse of such an open winter as was enjoyed, before them, the ice barons, according to the independent dealers, are preparing for royal gouging of the public this coming summer. First, however, the independ- ents must be gotten out of the way or held in such leash that they cannot inter fere with the plans.
 Therefore, according to the 1nde pendents, instead of letting them make up their loss of past years by fair price this year, the Ice Trust has boosted the price to $5 a ton and at the same time restricted them to the retail price to be

PICCLY WICCLY FIRM
 FOR UNION LABOR
Home Office Instructs Local Stores to Employ Only
 Such Mechanics.

Not only are the PIGGLY WIGGLY stores in this city places where bargains in first class staples can be secured, but they are strictly favorable to Organized Labor here and throughout the country, as the following rule from the headquar- ters of the system at Memphis, Tenn, proves. Coming at this time, when all most every big interest in the country is out to disrupt Organized Labor, the stand of the .PIGGLY WIGGLY sys- tenn Is a brave one and should be sup ported by local union men religious1y. The notice is as follows:
 "UNION LABOR MUST BE GIVEN
 PREFERENCE.
 All work about PIGGL1 WIGGLY store that requires skilled mechanic and which is to be contracted by or paid for by PIGGLY WIGGLY Operator must be done by Union Labor in good standing with it's local order
 Tn case the work is being done by the landlord and at his own expense, it is, of course, his own business the kind of labor employed PIGGLY WIGGLY can only hope to regulate it's own house and members as to their attitude toward organized labor, and the Home Office will require that every agency be the friend of Union Labor as one of the Regulations of the said Home Office"
 That should be enough for every union man in this vicinity to ensure his doing his trading in the PIGGLY WIGGLY lines at the PIGGLY WIGGLY stores While so doing he should also take the opportunity to express his appreciation of such a stand, taken as it is especially at this time. The PIGGLY WIGGLY system has always been fair to Union Labor, the policy quoted above being one of its standing rules.

THE HYPERION,

Turn to the Right" the comedy by Winchell Smith and John Golden, which proved so entertaining that 1t ran a solid year at the Gaiety theater in New York followed by an equal run in Chicago and a terrific success on the road, comes to the Hyperion next week marking it's first presentation in stock. Turn to the Right entertained President Wilson so much when the play was in Washington that he sow it twice. The central figures of the story are an erring boy and his old fashioned praying mother. A pro- logue d1scloses Joe Basco1n, just released from prison, in a dingy little pawn shop where he is met by two former pals. He rejects their proposals concerning a certain safe and after sharing his slender bank roll with the crooks bids them goodbye and starts for his old old home in a village near by saying: I'm going to take the first turn to the right His footsteps take him across the threshold just after nightfall and his coming interrupts the mothers evening prayer and an affecting scene ensues. Then come Rags" and "Gilly," who are lured to the BasCOm cottage by the aroma of a kettle of peach jam. In the meantime 1t has developed that the Bas- com farm is about to be seized by the town skinf1int for non-payrnent of grocery bill and with Joe practically broke the two crooks take 1t upon them selves to liquidate the debt and they ac- compiish this by slick trick which will be the better enjoyed if not forestalled in print

"Hanky Panky, IT," is a happy 45 minutes of diversion. There are 14 in the cast, a dozen of them girls, including the two Moriarity sisters, duo of New Haven girls whose friends number a legion here. Alice Joyce in Her Lord and Master,"' is the stel1er screen production. Like the stage play the perturbation has been making a deep and lasting impression wherever 1t has been shown. A fine musical program by the Palace orchestra and organ and sev- eral shorter film subjects and Douglas Mclean in The Honestretch,' are offered as an extra added feature for Sunday evening. The vaudeville for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in cludes Billy Coden and Al Luken, two New Haven boys. They are both mem bers of the local lodge of Moose; Foley and ONeil, known as "A Couple of Nifties"; Howard Chase and Jean Chase present That's Mine," their latest com edy, and the Hikko Trio in their beau tiful Japanese novelty act complete the bill.

RAILROADS WIN

 Held Separately.

Chicago, April l5.-National agree ments defining working conditions for employees on all American railroads formerly under the federal railroad ad- mlnistration, were ordered abrogated to- day, effective July l, 1921, by the United States railroad labor board.

 While the decision did not specifically say so, members of the board said that all disputes as to rules and working conditions automatically were referred back to individual conferences between each individual road and its employees. This method of procedure had been sought by the railroads. whereas the labor side had favored national confer ence between representatives of all roads and all unions
 The decision affected all railroad en- ployes except those in train service who are under separate agreements between the individual railroads and the four big brOtherhOOdS.
