Tap and Die Corporation VIII Take On
Some Help During August
EMPLOYS 500 Now.

GREENFIELD. Mass. July %
President Frederick H. Payne of the
Greenfield Tap and Die corporation an
nounced yesterday that the corporation
does not anticipate opening its factories
as a whole until the Tuesday after Labor
day. September 6. The concern is now
turning out some work. having 800 EN-
ployes on its payroll. This number will
be increased as needed through the month
Of August.
While the fact that the general open
ing is not to take place August /, as was
expected will cause some disappointment,
this is relieved somewhat by the corpora
tion's announcement that it will increase
the number of men it has at work some
what from week to week. And the com
pany's expectation that all its factories
will resume operations early in Septem-
Der affords a great deal of encouragement.

COiOred Publicity.

\ meeting Of the Merchants association
this morning is called for the purpose of
drawing up a statement censurlng the
publication of undesirable publicity for
the town in connection with the strike
here. claiming that many of the stories
which have appeared in Out-of-town pa
pers are false. The Times, whose staff
has acted as correspondent for some of
these papers in question. has also come
to be blamed somewhat for wild state
ments. which, on the face Of them appear
absurd to anyone in touch with the local
situation.
In order to explain the position of The
Times. we wish to call attention to the
fact that out-Of-town correspondents from
at least half a dozen metropolitan papers
have been in town this week to cover the
strike situation. News of the local end
of the strike has been appearing in the
Boston papers under Brattleboro and
keene, \. H., date lines. With stories
coming from such diverse sources. no one
can hope to control the publicity which
goes abroad. ColOrfuI exaggeration by
the big newspapers makes peaceful Bel
lows Falls look like a BolShevist- camp
and if the strike continues long enough
we expect to see cartoons of bombs used,
etc.
The Times is making every effort to
check this unlicensed publicity which dis
tOrts the local situation from one of or
DERBY collective bargaining to one of riot
and disorder. This week letters have been
sent from The Times office to all papers
for which we correspond as send it out
not rewritten.
We believe this step to be in keeping
with our position and that it will have
the approval of both sides to the contro-
yersy.

Three Republicans, Senator Borah,
Idaho; Moses, New Hampshire; and
Warren, Wyoming, We're joined by four
Democrats in opposing the bills passage.
The federal children's bureau would
administer the act. An effort by Senator

The bill carries initial appropriations
of 81, 4S0,000, which the states would be
required to match.
An amendment by Senator Reed to cut
half million dollars from the federal
fund was rejected, 50 to 6.
