Trades Unions to Assist Strikers
Will Endeavor to Prevent Union
 2 Men in Outside Shops Making Repairs.

Three new delegates were seated, and Carpenters Local 1742 reinstated at the meeting of the New Haven Trades Council last night, presided over by George F. Mordecai, as tenn porary chairman in the absence of President Ornburn, who was called out of town. The delegates were James Kane, Metal Polishers, and Gustave Linke, Painters, 4oo.
 An appeal from the Hartford shop crafts, sent out to all organized bodies in this section, asking cooperation in the endeavor to prevent railroad re- pair work done by union men in out side contract shops was read and adopted. The bakers delegates report ed that Silvergleits Whalley Sanitary Bakery which has been holding out from the union, had signed an agree ment.
 The movie operators reported that the Majestic theater management, of Oak street had double crossed them and after making an agreement had hired non-union operators. Union sentiment, which is strong in the dis trict, brought him around before and will probably do so again.

STRIVE TO END
 MOOSUP STRIKE
Unions Agree But Mill Agents Re
 fuse to Recognize Them.

Moosup, Aug. 4.-At meeting held the town decided to send a commit ! tee to confer with the owner of the Moosup Mills in an effort to settle the strike which has been in effect several weeks. The action was taken after futile efforts by Selectman Hen ry Bessette, Rev. Mr. Mccarthy and others to induce a settlement. The strikers are said to have agreed to concede about everything except their union rights. Reports say that less than a score of skilled hands have reported for work
 When the reports of the officials of the Unoin Cotton Co., Mills here trying to start up after a two weeks strife were sent broadcast, these words appeared in the "A. F." dis patch: "Moosup Cotton Mills are the only ones in the country if not the state where wages were not reduced :" The facts are that Plainfeld mills, more than twice the size of Moosup, have not reduced wages, has not gone back to the old obnoxious 54 hour schedule, and has not had any trouble with the help, all or nearly all union members. Taftville, Baltic, and a dozen smaller mills in both Windham and New London counties have not reduced wages either.
 The Moosup mill management does not wish to recognize the union and there you are.

Employment Gains.

Washington, Aug. 4-Emp1oyment is on the increase, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The re- port is for June, and is based on statements from representative estab- lishments in I2 manufacturing indus tries. Comparing the figures of June, 1922, with those for identical estab- lishments for June, 1921, it appears that in eight of the 12 industries there were increases in the number of per sons employed, while in four there were decreases. The largest increases were 32.I per cent. in iron and steel, 3o.5 per cent. in car building and re- pairing and PIP per cent. in automo- biles.- Cotton manufacturing, which is being checked by the textile strike, shows a decrease of 25.I per cent, and silk decreased Io.3 per cent.

Danbury Barbers
 "Trim Up' Strikers
Descend on Meeting With Shears ane
 Cups and Clip and Scrape.

Danbury, Aug. 4.-Striking railroad shopmen here have no need of going without shave or hair cut as long as there is a union barber in town, as was evidenced this week. Know ing that the finances of the men must be getting low, the union barbers sought the time of the strikers mass meeting and on learning it, picked up shears, razors and cups and descend ed on the hall in a body and treated everyone who wanted one, with free shave or hair cut. Not only that but they have thrown their shops open to the men with an invitation to drop in and get trimmed up when ever they need it. The matters also have started a campaign of "help the strikers" and Already rave raised con siderable funds that will carry the men out on for some time at $Io a week at least.

NEW HAVEN FIRE
(Continued from First Page.)

(Continued from First Page.)
 there are about 200 of them in use and the system as whole nearly shot to pieces, the boxes themselves said to be in a broken down state and in need of new wheels and other repairs and in fact the system so run down as to need the substitution of an en- tirely new outfit, at an estimated cost of $5o,ooo for the initial expense
 It is common gossip in the fire de- partment of the many mixed up alarms constantly coming over the wires, but of these there is said to be no record kept, so long as the oper- ator in the signal room gets the right box finally and is able to send 1t on to the required companies before a disastrous blaze has occurred. The need of equipping the new Westville district with an alarm system is given as part of the excuse for the entire new system Bremen know, how ever, that the real reason is the breakdown of the present system by the substitution of boxes.

Mooney Jury Head
 Crooked, Says Wife
Helped District Attorney Frame
 Labor Leader During Trial.

San Francisco, Aug. 4.-William ". MacNevin gained much political in fuence from his service as foreman of the jury that convicted Thomas Mooney, of complicity in the Pre- paredness Day bomb outrage, his wife declares in an affidavit filed in con nection with her suit for divorce.
 MacNevin violated his oath as a juror, she asserts, by having ire quent conferences with Edward A. Cunha, Mooney's prosecutor. These conferences, Mrs. MacNevin says, took place both at her home and at the home of Frank J. Murphy, her husbands attorney. Furthermore, she asserts MacNevin used his infu- ence as foreman to persuade other jurors to vote for conviction.
 The result of these activities, she continues, was to give MacNiven great political influence Mrs. Mac Nevin declares he is now using that influence to persecute and annoy her.

The lawyers can hard ly be blamed for their pique. They had not only just been dealt severe slap on the wrist judicially but then < grapher furnish detailed report of that s1apping was certainly too much. According to an official statemens issued later in the daN "proper pre- cautions" were taken to keep errors out of the present writ so perhaps the case will go to a showdown next Tuesday. The strikers hope so.
