BRASS LABORERS
 GET SCENT RAISE
Shops Up Valley Now Paying Muni-
 fcient Wage of 35c an Hour.

Waterbury, Sept. I5.-An advance of five cents an hour in the wages of the so-called competent common la bor, already in effect, has been an nounced by the Chase Metal compar1- ies, the Chase Rolling Mills. the Sco- vile Manufacturing company and the American Brass company. In the last named instance the advance also ap- plies to the plants of the company in Torrington and Ansonia.
 Under the new scale, common labor will receive 5 cents an hour,
 A statement issued by the Chase Metal companies says: The employ ing departments of the Chase Metal Works and the Chase Rolling Mills, finding that the hiring rates of com potent common labor have been ad- vanced by one or more of the brass mills in this city to 35 cents per hour, have been authorized to make the same advance. It is presumed that this will naturally be followed by a similar advance in the hiring rates of other employees at these two plants"

LIKELY TO INSIST
 ON ORR AS SHERIFF
Situation in New Haven County Brings Out Three Friends
 of Labor

Despite his insistence that he Is not candidate for the nomination, 1t now appears that Fred w Orr of New Haven will be the republican nominee for sheriff of New Haven county to oppose Sheriff Thomas L. Reilly. While the nomination on the republican side is being aggressively sought by Senator Hugh McCahey of New Haven and his friends are in sisting that he will win, nevertheless there is a persistent demand by re- publicans that MT. Orr be nominated and according to reports following the state convention in New Haven this week, the nomination will be ten dered him. In the event that the con vention tenders him the nomination, MT. Orr would be practically in duty bound have to accept.
 The situation presents a peculiar one for organized labor. MT. Reilly on the democratic side when in Con- gress was regarded as friend of La Dor and but for his appointment of Ed, Keating as jailer, an open an tagonist of Labor, has a clean slate. MT. Orr in the various official and semi-of6cial places he has filled has always been a warm friend of Labor also, while Senator McCahey in the last Legislature went to the bat against the anti-strike bill. Future developments will therefore have to determine which one Labor will sup port outright.

LABOR WILL PRESS ITS >' IMPEACHMENT DEMANDS
 ON CONGRESS FLOOR
WAYMEN TO HEAR PRESIDENT GRABLE
 TOMORROW NIGHT
Meeting to Be Held i'll New Haven
 Expected to Be Extremely Lively.

Representative of the several thousand maintenance of way men employed on the New Haven road, will meet in Trades Council hall, New Haven, tomorrow night, to hear their Grand President E. F. Grable report on the failure of the recent negotiations in Chicago for the re- opening of their case and the guar antee of living wage. Several hun dred delegates will be present and will carr ythe report back to the men on the several divisions and put it up to them direct as to what actoin to take.
 Two months ago when 100000 maintenance of way men threatened to quit work, Chairman Hooper and other members of the United States Railroad Labor Board pleaded with them to reconsider their decision and their grievances prompt considera- ton.
 Two months have elapsed since that promise was made, and now the board, by a vote of six to one, has rejected the following motion sub mitted by Labor Member Wharton:
 The right of workers, including common 1aborers to living. wage is hereby affirmed. In fixing wages, minimum rates of pay shall be estab- lished which will insure the subsis- tence of the worker and his family in health and reasonable comfort"
 That is the rule promulgated by. the War Labor Board of which Chief Justice Taft and Frank P. Walsh were joint chairmen and in rejecting it the Labor Board has definitely de- clared that workers on American railroads must not expect sufficient wage to maintain life according to American standards, says President Grable
 President Harding since entering the White House has repeatedly said that evefy worker was entitled not only to living wage, but a saving wage, and only a few months ago Senator Cummins, one of the authors of the transportation act; declared at hearing before his committee that Congress "never dreamed that when the government undertook to fix wages that the wages of any man who was required to work would be less than would be necessary to support him and his family in reasonable com fort"
 '1f President Harding and Senator Cummins were serious in making these declarations, why do not they repudiate the reactionary members of the United States Railroad Labor Board?"
 The New Haven road did offer a five cent raise but to get it the man had to join a company union and abandon their own This caused much dissatisfaction when 1t became known and the meeting tomorrow. night IS likely to be extremely lively.

Federal Judge Bill
 Passed By Senate

Washington, Sept I5.-The long delayed administration bill providing 25 additional federal judges finally was completed this week by the Sen ate and upon action by the House. the measure will go to President Harding.
 The bill has been urged by the Department of Justice and American Bar Association as necessary to re- ieve clogged federal court calanders Opponents contended that most oi the additional judges were unneces- sary.
 The bulk of the Senate opposition was democratic, only five democratic Senators-Ashurt, Arizona; Fletcher Florida; Ransdell, Louisiana; Tram me1l, Florida ,and Walsh, Massachu- setts-voting for the conference re- port. Three republicans, Borah, Cap per, Kansas, and McNary, Oregon voted with democratic opponents.

POSTAL CLERKS TO ASK 25P. (. INCREASE
 IN PRESENT WAGE
Rate Paid Now Insufficient For De- cent Living, Says Execu-
 tive Board.

Present wages of postof6ce em- ployes are inadequate and have been for years. Postal employees never re- ceived sufficient money to afford them a standard of living as shown by the governments own statistics. This decision was reached by the executive board of the Connecticut Federation of Postoff1ce Clerks meeting in Sey- mour this week To meet the diff ference between the wages received at present and what Is necessary for their living the officials went on rec ord as favoring a 259o increase in wages. The public has been led to believe that the postofhce employees are getting what they demanded be fore the last increase. Nothing could be further from the truth and IS shown by the demand for 259o in crease at this time.
 The executive committee also went on record as favoring a real seniority system, elimination of overtime, re- duction of night work and half a day off weekly besides Sundays which they are getting now,
 It was pointed out that favorable positions are not given out according to length of service but to those that have political "pull'' or are favored by officials. To improve the morale of the clerks seniority system should be inaugurated that will give every clerk or other employe equal chance of promotion.
 According to the governments $ own figures, postal revenue is picking up. There has not been any ap- pointments of regular clerks to keep up with the business and as a result overtime IS almost daily occurrence. Relief from night work looked bright few months ago but a bill that would reduce the period of night work lies buried in the Senate The board emphasized the fact that night work is detrimental to health and that practically all employees and different government departments have time differential for night work. A six hour night tour Is asked by this body of postal employees.
 The executive board pointed out that only by law will they be able to obtain a half day off during the week A recent order from the de- partment does not allow all employees off on Saturday. Distributing clerks are often not allowed to take advant- age of this opportunity, the claim be- ing made that they can not be spared But few employees receive more than two hours off and they very seldom Some clerks have not received any benefit at all and some only once the entire summer. To have all employees enjoy half day a week they ask for a law making 1t legal.

BRICKLAYERS IN NEW HAVEN PLACE
 WAGE AT $9 DAY
Inform Contractors That On October I, Former Rate Will Be
 Demanded.

New Haven Local Union No. 6, Bricklayers, Masons and Plasterers Union, this week served notices on the employing contractors that the former wage of $1.12H an hour or So for an eight hour day will be the wage demanded by the workers on and after October I. The action was decided upon at meeting of the local Monday night and at once forwarded to the contractors.
 While no definite answeV has been received from the contractors as yet there is expected to be no trouble over the new wage: In fact a num- Der of contractors are already paying that scale and more and those that are not are sorely pressed for men for the good and simple reason that the workers naturally take the places that are most paid.
 The bricklayers, like the other building trades, were subjected to a wage cut when the Connecticut Build ers' Exchange something over a year ago made a drive at all the building tradesmen by reducing wages. The Builders Exchange was fought to a finish and is now practically extinct and wages of journeymen builders have been restored salmost generally.
 In Hartford only few weeks ago all building tradesmen re-established the old wage without trouble. Now the bricklayers in New Haven are to do the same and no trouble is expect ed here.

BREAK IN RAILROAD SHOP STRIKE LEAVES THE NEW IN JACKIE A. F. OF 1. COUNCIL AFTER DAUGt1ERTY & OTTER OPPONENT
LABOR TO DECIDE POLITICAL FRIENDS
 AT NEXT MEETING
New Haven Non-Partisan Committed to Discuss Candidates
 On Sept. 27.

Discussion of the qualities and the endorsement or condemnation of the various men or women nominated for places on the state ticket or to the legislature, will feature the next meeting of the New Haven Trades Council Non-Partisan Political Cam jaign Committee, which will be held at Trades Council hall on Wednesday evening, September 27. By that time 1t is expected that all nominations will have been made hereabouts and that the committeeman will be able then to have their records at hand and either give endorsement as friends of Labor or denounce them as enemies.
 This action was decided at an en- thusiastic meeting held by the com mittee on Wednesday night last when some of the delegates present asked that the candidates already placed in the field be discussed. As the Repub- lican convention had been adjourned but a few hours 1t was thought ad- visable to wait until opportunity to get the records, of those nominated together with the records of the democrats, who will be nominat ed next week at Hartford to oppose them. Therefore all matters pertain ing to candidates were put over to the next meeting.
 The committee started an active campaign to be waged among women employed in industry or otherwise employed, to have them enrolled as voters this fall. This not only applies to those affiliated with Organized La bor but all women workers to whom the non-partisan platform of mini mum wage and proper working rules must appeal. The child labor law which affects women more than men will also be urged upon them as a reason why they should become voters and have say in political and public affairs.
