TUBERCULOSIS IS
 SUBJECT DISCUSSED
State Experts Meet Today At Cres- cent Beach Sanatoria.-Impure
 Milk Talked Over

Mantle, June 5.-Because of the great social and financial importance of the subject the question whether or not human beings frequently con- tract tuberculosis by drinking the milk of tuberculous COWS, caused an- imated discussion at the medical meeting of the staffs of the state tuberculosis sanatoria at Crescent Beach today. Although it was not down on the program as the title of any of the papers. it forced itself on the carpet from both the principal addresses which were "X-ray pictures of the lungs in cases of surgical tu- berculosis,' and Cases of children crippled with tuberculosis; have they been nursed by their mothers or were they bottle-fed?"
 Superintendent John r. O'Briens X-ray studies of his little browning and curing cases at the seaside led him to the conclusion that the pri- mary lesion, even in bone cases. was usually at the root of the lung, and that therefore the original infection was air borne and not food borne.
 And as to the question whether his patients had been fed in infancy with cows milk or with human milk, pr. OBriens investigations, although con fessedy on only a small number Of cases, showed that in Fl per cent. his crippled children had been nurs- ed by their mothers and that 29 per cent had been fed in infancy on COWS milk only.
 Doctors Sullivan from New London and Dart from Mantle were among the invited guests
 II was decided to hold the next medical meeting of the commission in September when reports from Dr. William M Stockwel of Hartford. and Arthur R. kimball of Water bury, will be made of the Internation- al Tuberculosis conference at Brus- sells in July. They will represent the United States and Connecticut at that conference. Mr. Kimball is a mem Der of the State Tuberculosis com mission, and nr. Stockwell is super ntendent of the Hartford sanatorium.

speaking, wholly successful, still the | fact remains that no time was lost | by accepting mediation, and no prin- ciple was sacrificed thereby. This ac- ceptance of mediation on the part of the organization will react on the movement, for the opposite to this ef- fort was displayed by many of the employers in this state during the past year. l have letters in my office to bear out this statement, that en- ployers rather than arbitrate wage disputes on already existing contracts insisted on going into arbitration on terms laid down by such employers did not want voluntary arbitration; what they did want is the modern method of IT fight is right.
 They wanted compulsory mediation and my advice at this point is this: that come what may, let the last ounce of your energy be spent before you ever let anyone incarcerate you or yours carrying out the principle of the right to cease work with your conrad des at any time when, where and how you please to do so'."
 Takes Up Politics
 Taking up political matters Pres ident OMeara referred to the August primaries and caucuses of parties and the conventions which will follow He said:
 If there ever was a time that or ganized labor and it's friends should become interested politically it is now. The promises made by those elected to office Of recent years have been re- pudiated as never before'
 Mir. O'Meara urged all to get into politics that men fair to all interests and fair to labor may only be elected to office. At the next session of the general assembly the federation will advocate modification of the Nolstead act to permit the sale of light wines and beer; social insurance amend ments to the workmen's compensation 4S hour week for women and chill dren, amendment to the intimidation law, amendments to the present laws pertaining to the funds that assist widows and orphans, assistance to the men who were in service during the world war and many bills that have to do with the health of the wage earner.

bAKHMETEFF MUST
 LEAVE WASHINGTON
Advised He Can No Longer Be
 Russian Ambassador

Washington, June@ 5.-Recognition of Boris Bakhmeteff as Russian am- bassador to the United States will cease after June 50
 MT. Bakhmeteff has been notified of this decision of the Americans gov ernment in letter from Secretary Hughes, replying to a communica- ton from the ambassador in which the latter, stating that his chief func- tion in recent months of liquidating property claims growing out of the war, was now about completed, had offered to retire should the Washing ton government desire it.
 The correspondence, published to- day, was dated late in April, after Senator Borah had challenged the ambassadors status, long the subject of controversy, in connection with at tempts to hail him before senate committee and in his communication MT. Bakhmeteh states that the re newed discussion,' of the subject had l>d him to question whether his con- tfnuance as ambassador would serve the best interests of my country and the convenience of the United states
 Both the latter's and the secretary's reply, however, antedate the climax of the senate discussion of the sub feet during which charges were pro duced by Senator Borah of misuse of Russian embassy funds, of which cog nizance is taken in an exchange of letters between Secretary Hughes and Secretary Mellon of the treasury de- partment, made public with other correspondence. Giving detailed statement of the embassys experl- ence, MT. Mellon declared that the s1s7,000 advanced by the United States was used solely for the pur chase of obligations of the Russian government in accordance with the liberty loan acts.'

Stamford. June 5.-Industrial re- adjustment, unemployment, the atti- tude of operators toward union labor and the part organized labor may be expected to play in politics were some of the high spots in the discussion of unionism in Connecticut by Pres ident Patrick F. O'Meara, in his an nual report in opening the 37th an nual convention of the Connecticut Federation Of Labor today.
 As soon as the customary courtesies had been exchanged and the delegates welcomed to Stamford, President O'Meara submitted his report saying at the outset that the great national drive started in October 1920, that had for it's purpose the crushing of the labor organizations under the dis guise of a wage reduction program, has continued with all its fury since
