Hartford to Drop
 Married Women
Husbands Must Support Them and Give Others Chance at
 lob.

Hartford. Oct. I4.-Following the precedent established by several in surance concerns in the city in dis charging women employees who are supported by their husbands, with a view to providing work for the un- employed of the city who have no meapS of support, the common coun- Gil took preliminary steps last night toward similar action by adopting a resolution providing for the appoint ment by the mayor of committee of three aldermen to confer with the heads of the various city departments in order to find out the number of married women employed by the city who are at present supported by their husbands.
 The resolution. which was intro duced by Alderman Raphael, was unanimously adopted by the council In presenting his resolution Alder man Raphael said he thought such action was incumbent upon the city in order to provide employment for persons who have no means of pro- viding their bread and butter Con- ccrns located in the city had already pointed the way, he said, and he thought it unfair that some families were receiving a double income while others were in actual distress for want of employment

It is known that there arc a large number Of requests before the finance board, upon whose recom- mcndation the board of control C;f allow increases. Chairman Wadhams has already let it be known that he did not consider the requested in crca>cs abnormal, It is understood that at the joint meeting yesterday the two boards examined the schcd- ulcS oi requests, which required the approval of the state department heads. Among the requests are those from state employees who failed to get the desired increases from the General Assembly this year The two boards, it is understood. arc con- S1dcrlng the requests for increases in connection with the present industrial and wage conditions.

EMPLOYES RELIEF
 ASSOCIATION HEAD
 TALK AT RAILROAD
Bradley Points Out Benefits to Be Derived Through Associa-
 ton.

A talk was given the employees of the N. I., \. H. & H. R. R. at the Water street shops and at Cedar Hill Thursday by the Employees Tubercu- losis Relief Association Field Secre- tary George l.. Bradley, the object being to have the employees become members Of the association. MT. Bradley stated that the association was organized June 2S, 1921, or over nine years ago, and had therefor passed the experimental stage. Six hundred and Scvcnty-fivc patients have been cared for since organiza- ton, and 57 were now being cared for at the different sanatoriums through out the state, and under the care of the nurses at their homes.
 There are five state Sanatoriums where patients are sent, at Shelton Norwich, and Hartford for adults, and Meridcn, and Seaside at Mantle for children, also Gaylord Farm at Wallingford which is a private sana- tOrIun, but arrangements have been made 10 send patients there at a re- duCcd rate, as the regular rate at Gaylord Farm was much higher than at the state institutions for patients other than members of the Employees Tuberculosis Relief Association, al though the patient must pay $4 per week there in place of SIP, the rcgu- lar rate, whereas there was no ex- pcnSc to the patient upon entering any of the state institutions, as the association paid all The cost of care and treatment for each patient is $2OS per year or $4 per week, and is paid from the treasury Of the asSO- citation the funds being the voluntary contributions of the employees of more than GO factories and business houses throughout the city who have become members. and as the contri- button protects the cmployc and their dependents more than 65ooo people in New Haven are now eligible to the benefits should they be unfortunate enough to be taken i'll with this dreadful disease.
 The association is under the man agemcnt of executive officers and a board of managers of 20 men from the different concerns who give their time gratis, and Mir. Shartcnberg of Shartcnbcrg & Robinson gives the association office rent free at 76, Chapel street, room ,, so the expense Of running the association is very small, and all funds contributed are used for the care and treatment of members and their dependents.
 Contributions are made annually by each member. and while no specified amount i> asked, 1t is expected that all will give as libcrally as possible to carry on the work which is most worthy one, and of great help to the community at large

CATERPILLAR AIR.
"NARY GRAHAM BOWER

'1," said the Caterpillar whose fam fly name was that of GOatweed Elm perOr "believe in a little air Oh, yes, and I'd like to tell creatures that l believe in it. For, if they think that l don't have any air in my home they are quite mistaken.
 People have windows in their bed rooms and so do l. They open their windows so as to let some nice fresh air come in and so do I.
 "'rhey think it is healthful and that 1t makes them breathe purer, finer air to do that. and so do l.
 But as 1 don't think they all know that about me, l am going to tell them about myself.
 II have been told I could tell my story about the air have in my bed room and therefore I am going to do so.
 First of all 1 open my eyes on a little gOatweed plant which is one of the reasons for my name.
 Then I am a little caterpillar. I use the leaf to sit upon and to eat at. too.
 "All creatures cannot do that.
 'WhO ever heard of creature smart enough to eat the chair he was sitting in and not want any more food?
 ''I never heard of person who was smart enough to do that nor of any other creatures except we caterpillars. Just because we crawl about doesn't mean that we don't do bright things.
 we do very bright things indeed, and that is one of them. It saves so much bother about getting both chairs and food into the dining room.
 We don't have to bother about fur nishing our dining room, but we take 1t already furnished In nice leafy style.
 "Then we don't have to bother about any dining room table or any dining room table cloth, and we don't bother about going out to the market all the time.
 We have our food with us. We're great creatures, we little caterpillarS. Pretty smart, I'd say, and I ought to know. I am one, I am.
 And then to show you how much smarter I am even than that. I can
The Connecticut labor news., 1921-10-14

make my dining room and table cloth and dining room chair and food all into 8 bedroom.
 Most certainly I can! If you think it sounds impossible I will explain to you how I do 1t.
 "I take the leaf upon which I've been feeding and which has served me we'll as a dining room table and a table cloth and a dining room chair, and fold it together very neatly and perfectly.
 At either end I leave an opening. So that I have two windows in my bedroom. Also I can get out or come in at my windows if I want to and don't need to bother about front doors or back doors, or any doors at all.
 But do think it is wise to have fresh air, and so I have fresh air.
 '"The air is outside and one might just as well have it. The air won't object in the least. It says there is plenty of it and everyone can have some.
 "So I take some, too. And I nap and dream and change my costume and I grow healthy and fine because I know enough to have fresh air.
 "So when children open their win dows at night when they are going to bed they might also think of the smart little caterpillar who has window open at either end of his leafy home where he takes his sleep.
 Sometimes I have a little silky coverlet in my leafy room which is soft and pleasant to lie upon.
 After I have had my long sleep 1 become a chrysalis and then become a gorgeous orange-colored butterfly.
 'I often say, too, that one of the reasons I am such a handsome butter fly is because 1 believe in good fresh air and because of the two windows I always kept open when I was sleep ing in my leafy bed
 That is what I say and 1 believe it to be quite true"
