STAMFORD

Members of the Town Planning Board yesterday made public a re- commendation to the Town Council which requests that body to enact as tabl1shing the ten-foot building line on the east side of Main street
 The recommendation of the board as presented to the council reads:
 Since 1t has been proposed to establish a ten foot building line on the east side of Main street, which matter has already been before you for preliminary consideration, it has come to our attention that the op- position to this proposed ordinance has been brought about by one or two parties who through miSstatements to people residing on said street have unduly influenced them to oppose this matter.
 ''The planning Board wishes to make it clear that, in their opinion, (and we believe we can convince any, one who will take the time to look into the matter), the opposition to this measure is due solely to the fact that the parties interested in en- croaching on the proposed building line believe it will be slightly more expensive for them to alter their resi- dence for business property by build ing an addition on the rear of same than it will be if they are permitte d to build on the front and thereby encroach upon the proposed build
 
 say that the establishment of this ten foot line does not constitute the con- f1scation by the town of private prop erty, as some of the residents of this section have been led to believe.
 'It does require, however, a clear space of ten feet from the back of the sidewalk to any part of future building, which means to the citizen who wishes to maintain his residence there fore sometime to come, that he will not be enclosed" by business buildings; to him who believes, as we do, that the future will probably see this section of the town one of busi- erty will be greatly enhanced by a spacious entrance to his business building, and last but not least il means that there will be no cause for the destruction of our trees the value of which cannot be placed toe highly.
 "In recommending this ordinance the Planning Board does so with the firm belief that it will be a benefit to the present and future property owners on Main street and that it is for the good of the community. The residents of Main street, al Longbrook avenue and Paradise Green, and in many other places iT Stratford, have concrete examples oi action of others may do to their prop what permiscuous and inconsideratt erty. In every community there art persons to whom an extra few dollar. a year means more than pride in theil ] community and the welfare of tn, town.
 all building lines are eSta b1iShed. we respectfully recommend tha tyour honorable body enact this ordi
 nance as originally presented"

SENATOR MILAN SAYS 300 UNIONS
 ASK FOR TARIFF
Senator Believes Thousands Are Idle Because Goods Are Imported.

Ten international labor unions and
 over 300 individual labor unions in
 all sections of the. United States have
 petitioned Congress to speed the en-
 actment. of the pending tariff bill. This announcement was made to- day by Senator George P. Mclean, of
 Finance Committee, for the purpose of showing the widespread interest among working men and women in the tariff debate in Congress Senator McLean's statement fol- lows:
 '"Ten international labor unions and over 300 individual labor unions from all parts of the United States have petitioned Congress to speed up the enactment of the pending tariff bill. This does not include the thousands of petitions which individual members of the Senate have received from em- p1oyees of factories or shop commit tees This is almost entirely the voice of union labor.
 Despite the statements made and constantly repeated that there is no sentiment in the country for the pas sage of a tariff bill at this time, the
 following partial list of labor organ | izations which have petitioned Con- gress, will prove to anyone who wishes 1 to be fair and face the facts that the | great majority of workers in the ] United States, men and women pro- ! ducers, want this tariff bill
 'In a recent letters to President Harding ana mem DerS or the senate | Finance committee ten international i brotherhoods, said:
 Representing thousands of skilled American wage earners, a large per centage of whom served their country on the blood-stained fields of Europe, and who on their return to their homes, have found it impossible to obtain employment, we again reiterate our desire for the enactment of laws I by Congress that will adequately pro- tect all wage earners of our country against the loss of employment through I: any industrial invasion on the part : of the products of any other nations ! We believe that any fair-n1inded per- ! son will admit that thousands of our | American workmen are idle today f solely because of the increase in the ! importations of merchandise from foreign countries.'

St. Louis. Aug. 1-Sentiment of Missouri Democracy as 1t regards the national policies of it's party was to be voiced in the state wide primaries being held today. The real issue which caused an evident throb in the breast of the state and nation was being put to the test.
 This issue-the League of Nations was before the voters. The stand of United States Senator James A. Reed in championing the fight against Woodrow Wilson and alignment with sociation aimed to preserve trterna- tional peace was to be approved or rejected.
 Reed stood before his party in this state today asking the people to re- nominate him for the office he now holds. The fiery Senator was being opposed by Breckenridge Long of St. Louis, who fought Reed and the policies he has supported in the Sen ate. Long, in his campaign revived the League of Nations issue which has been sidetracked during the two years and charged Reed with being "un- faithful to the Democratic party.
 Reed Is Confident.
 Senator Reed announced that he is ready to receive the decision of the voters. Edward A. Glenn, his cam paign manager, predicted today that Reed would sweep the state by 100. 900 plurality.
 Reed will carry thirteen of the six teen congressional districts and de- feat Long by 40,00o in the rural dis tricts," Glenn predicted.
 At Longs headquarters here, pre- dictions were equally optimistic for their candidate.

Washington, Aug. 1.-Voters in five states are going to the polls today to decide primary contests that are expected to afford the most Illuminating cross-country insight into the political temper of the country since the great avalanche of 1920.
 Almost every kind of a fight and every kind of an issue is bound up in some way in today's contests in Missouri, Kansas, West In Missouri it is WilSonism and the League of Nations all over again; in Oklahoma it is the IZu K1ux Klan; in Kansas it is the industrial court; in West Virginia it is a partisan battle between the Republicans, and a ''woman fight'' among the Democrats. Only in Virginia is there sem- blance of quietude.
