he was given the position OF inspec-

the same year was promoted to

STRIKERS KEEP
QUIET ATTITUDE

BELLOWS FALLS. July 81
Progress of the railroad strike at
Bellows Falls has been marked by
quiet and business-like relations
upon both sides. Not a trace of
any interference or i'll feeling has
arisen. The strikers were among
the oldest and best citizens.
At the Boston and Maine round
house the entire force of men in
occupation affected by the strike
order went out on July 1. They
were three machinists, five mach
inists' helpers, one boilermaker
and boilermaker's assistant.
Ten men in all now have re-
turned. Their places have been fill
ed by two machinists and four
n1arhinists' helpers, all new men.
In the car repair department Of
tnat road employing six men. three
went out and three remained.
OF the IA men of the Rutland
Railroad in occupations affected,
only six went out and their places
were filled within a few hours and
no changes have been made since.
l thirteen men of the Boston and
Maine and six of the Rutland men
are the total out. No attempt has
been made to interfere, the strik-
ers keeping entirely away from
their old places and all trains have
been dispatched from here with
practically no delay.
Circulars have today been re-
ceived from the management of
the roads, stating clearly that
strikers must lose seniority rights
which is understood to he practi-
cally the only bar now to settle
ment of the strike.

TARIFF BILL HAS
FIRST ANNIVERSARY

WASHINGTON, July 21-To-
day is the first anniversary of the
passage of the tariff bill by the
House. When the measure will
find its niche in statutes hall still
is problematical but there are
increasing signs that leaders at
least on both sides Of the Senate
are anxious to get into confer
cncc.
In the Senate it is still II O'Clock
noon Thursday, April 20, 1922
the hour the tariff was called up.
This bit of legislative fiction is be
ing INDUCED in with a hope of
facilitating all other except the
