In view of the apparent cagcrncsS with which judges usually issue drastic Writ~ of injunction in labor disputes, Justice Wagncrs setting aside of the stock judicial reasoning is striking.

Appetite for Power Making His Position on Interna- tiOnal Affairs Neither Honest Nor Intelligi- ble, Says New York World in Denouncing Senate Oligarchy.

Cnnntcticl1t's senators in Washington are certainly again putting the old Nut meg State on the map but not in the way the ilustrioul Platt. Hawlcy and others of the old days did The actions of Brandegtc and Mclean are holding the sarcasm instead of as "a land of steady habits and thought" as 1t used to he known. Last week it was Mclean who by a defiant defense of the NeWberrv s1ush fund brought about his head the ccnsure of colleagues in the Senate and this week its Brandeoee who because of apparent "bull -headeCness' in matters foreign, Is reaplng the sarcasm. He was speaking of the proposed Genoa ccono- mic conference this time and when asked as to statements alleged to have been made to President Harding he answered
 "Thc President had the temerity to ask for. and l had the audacity to give him my views on the subject" As to those views and others Brandegec has ex- pressed the New York World of ycstcr- day has the following to say:
 BRANDEGFF RENISES
 THE CONSTITUTION
 Senator Brandegee's statement that the President cannot ''cOmmit this COun- try to foreign policies without the consent of Congress" would mean. as he evid- cntly intends it to mean. that the Pres ldent cannot write a note cannot negoti- ate with an Ambassador. cannot partci- pate in an international conference, with out securing a vote from Congress on every step that he takes. It is not pos Siblc to transact public business on that basis. It IS impossible to conduct foreign relations. And Senator Brandegee knows that it is impossible. He need only con- suit the speeches Of Senator Lodge de lvcrcd when Mir. Wilson was President or after Mir. Harding took office to learn that such control over foreign relations is no part of the American system of government.

Immediately on arriving at the de cision to reject all the proposed changes i'll working rules, the shop crafts officers sent out instructions to inc 5oo,ooo employees in the shops to immediately institute new disputes on the rules. proceed to argue them out as provided under the Labor Board rules and failing an agreement, as Is anticipated, prepare to bring the en- tire matter before the Labor Board. The orders were signed by the heads of the six shop crafts interested, thus
 making 1t united movement. Of the rules the one that caused most dis agreement was that doing away with overtime for Sunday and holiday work which has previously been paid for at time and one-half, long before the roads were placed under super ,iSion of the Labor Board
 While the locomotive department of the shop crafts on the New Ha- ven i> now pretty we'll back at work again no indication Of when the car workers will be returned has yet been 2iven Among the workers, who were laid of on Christmas eve, d month ago, the feeling holds that 1t will be some time yet before the road calls them back Traffic on the New Haven fell off enormously during the last month or so and consequently a large number Of idle cars were laid on sidings. As fast as the rolling stock in use becomes damaged 1t is being replaced by these idle cars, and the damaged ones reIegated to the sidings and therefore the work CTS sec no hope of getting back to work until the entire quota has been exhausted or SO nearly so as to make prompt repairs to others necessary
 The ruling relative to the clerks applies to the freight handlers, sta tion mer, steamship men and express messengers and aside from re-estab- fishing the nine hour day provides for " sO-Called "split-triCk," and becomes effective on February I. By the "Split-trick' system the roads will not be compelled to pay overtime for work more than span of eight hours and will save millions thereby The new rule provides that where actual service is intermittent, eight hours actual time on duty within spread Of I2 hours shall constitute a days work. When employees actual ly work more than eight hours with in the span or when held longer than l2 hours to perform their work, they are not to be paid time and one-half

now mostly an onlo ker from his chair
was 1873 points behind.
The Fatherland's standard bearer
failed in the seventh inning to bring
the balls out of balk, debacle which
Schaefer turned to good nccolnt. When
the seventh inning was over Jake was
leading, 336 to 1853. Both drew blanks
in the eighth, Hagenlacher ON q one

was off by itself in the middle of the

natural.

mlscues several runs met with an .un-
timely end and the pace slowed down
Hagenlacher put together adjoining
innings of SO and So and gained, but
at the end Of the tenth inning was 1879
points behind He stuck to his knit
ting, but the vivacity Of his early
burst of caromic richness had given
way to plodding cue work He miscued
on a thin slant of the first bal! just
after Schaefer had miscued on draw.
Schaefer had an attractive way Of
gauging the speed necessary to reach
the second ball, but his fourth hundred
was q long siege for him and he had
hard work getting back into the smooth
speed of his third hundred. He and
Hagenlacher had the orbs scattered q
good deal.

of his slump. After few warming-up
shots his pace quickened up appreciably
and he ran &c. lie went we'll past che
400 mark and the tally was 432 to 27u
| in his favor. A kiss follow was the
most ornate single shot of the belated
! display Of sustained skill, then he was
! snoAt on lons oAe cLsn on draw.
| The German followed with a smartly
done seance, his best for some time
His uch was surer and he controlled
the balls better. He made his second
best run, Al, and part of it was reallJ
deft driving from transverse balk-
as close as wal parer to its we'll. Just
| after a difficult left-handed draw he
{ missed one-cushion shot of practical
! ly no angle at all.
Schaefer scratched on three
cushion shot around the cable-at
