 Next Week.

That the 35 organizations in the Community Chest make social service, education or relief contact with g,2oo of the people of New Haven daily was the argument which Commander Leonard Horner gave the workers of the Industrial Division last Monday night with which to enter the cam paign which begins today. Ask the people you meet" he said, what would happen to all if the s were wiped out"
 It was the opening gun, really of the industrial divisions campaign. There was representation of officers or heads of departments and key men and women of many of the city's inn portant industries in addition to the commanders, captains and many of the members of the eighteen teams, and a fine spirit of quiet determina ton to carry the thing through ap- peared The speakers were Chairman Ullman, Vice Chairman Knight, Com mander Horner, Henry B. Sargent, General Manager C. L. Bardo of the ---ew Haven road, Vice President R. E. Anderson of the Winchester com pany, and Amos P Wilder of the Journal-Courier Others at the speakers table were the Rev Dr. Oscar E. Maurer, Secretary George H. Bedell, Walter J. Flickinger of the Connecticut company, Wh1tford Drake of the Winchester company and Charles w. Dunlap of the Safety Cart Heating and Lighting company.
 In addition to urging the maintain ance of the slogan, "an average of one days wages from every em- ploye of every industry" Comman- der Horner set up as the goal for this year an increase of the number of givers from 32,ooo to 45,ooo, a total of at least $I5o,oo from the division.

Do Not Forget That WE DO JOB PRINTING
The Connecticut labor news., 1923-11-10

New Haven railroad only inefficient management. A book could be written on that, showing where millions have been literally thrown away during the past number of years, and this will be brought to light later. The New Ha- ven road is gold mine if properly worked, but not with the class of people who have been working it.
 Just a few items here, to show the l efficiency of the equipment, that general manager Bardo talks about:
 On October 1o, Train No. 50 loaded down with human freight, had very narrow escape. The train had travelled but half mile from New Haven on its eastward bound journey, when the engi- neer applied his brakes to see if they were i'll proper working order, with the result that one of the axels on the front coach dropped to the road bed. It was very fortunate for the passengers on this train, that the engineer tried the brakes when he did, as without doubt, if this train had gathered up speed, and the axel dropped, a serious wreck and loss of life would undoubtedly have resulted. (This train was moving slowly when the axel dropped.)
 On Monday night, Oct g, Train num- T and due in New York at :55 in the morning arrived there at 9 o'clock, about two hours late. The engine of this train died as dead as door nail between New London and New Haven, close to Saw brook Junction, and had to be lowed in to New Haven, where they attached an electric locomotive to finish the journey. The conductor of this train excused him self to one of the passengers, saying :: That they were up against 1t all the time, and that the train crews were not to blame, as the engines on the road were in very bad condition The passengers on this train had cause to congratulate themselves, that they escaped disaster.
 On October 25, I had occasion to travel to New Haven, and after 1 had passed through the ticket gate at South Station, Boston. l noticed engine 1889 standing on the track just inside the gate, she had just hauled in train. 1 gave her an external inspection on the one side, and found: Broken staybolts on the left hand side of the throat sheet, with water and steam pouring out of them, water leaking down bad from the inside at the back hl1e sheet, water leak ing down from the inside at the door sheet of boiler, and water running out of the tender in many places. The en- giner was standing there. introduced myself to him and said:, Your engine seems to be in bad shaps H said, "Yes' He also said: That he was willing to bet, that there wasn't an engine running i'll and out of South Station, that made over trip and half before she had to be returned to the engine house for re- pairs, and that he couldn't understand how they were going to >run through the winter as they were in such bad shape" He said some other things about the road which I cannot repeat here, as the language was little too strenuous. This condition of affairs doesn't line up very well with what general manager Bardo is feeding the public with.
 Fraternally yours, (Signed) Robert Henderson, Secretary.

CORONADO co. LOSES BIC SUIT
 AGAINST UNITED MINE WORKERS

Fort Smith, Ark, Nov. o,-The anti union Coronado coal company has lost it's case to mulct the United Mine Work CTS of America of $2,22Z,OO0 damages which it is alleged the company sustain ed because of property destruct1on ,n in the Hartford Valley coal strike of 1914.
 The company brought suit in the Uni ted States district court under the Sher- man antitrust act, claiming that the al legged property destruction 1nterfered with interstate commerce within the meaning of the act and that the United Mine Workers of America as a union was legally liable for the alleged dam ages.
 John C. Pollock declared thatC oronado coal company must establish that every one against whom they ask verdict knowingly participated in what occurred" " It must be established mot only that property was lost through the conspira- cy but that the conspiracy was formed for the direct purpose of monopollzlng interstate commerce" for undermined coal and to inter fere with interstate com merce in non-union coal.
 The Coronado coal company had fail ed to establish this, Judge Pollock said. If there was conspiracy at all, it was a conspiracy to prevent the operation of the Coronado mines as non-rion mines. But mining coal is not interstate com merce. And, manifestly, the attempt of the miners to persuade Franklin Bache of Philadelphia to hire union miners to operate the Coronado mine can not be regarded as interference with interstate commerce.
 Judge Pollock denied the company $ contention that the United Mine Work CTS a national union is bound by the activities of individual members of the organization.
 x This is the second victory for the mine workers. In the first Coronado case the lower courts awarded $7OO,OOO damages. Last year the supreme court of the Uni ted States reversed the verdict on the ground that the company had failed to establish jurisdiction under the Sher- man act and ordered new trial.

| NAMES FOR GIRLS
| And What They Mean.

HENRIETTA is a name that has
i i proved 50 popular for girls all
over the world that nearly every
country has its particular form Of
the name 1t can be literally trans
lated into home ruler" and as this
name is the feminine of Henry a
Henrietta should never, under any
circumstances marry Il Henry. for
this would be merely inviting do
mestic strife.
Henrietta has corn as her symbol
and plenty" her sentiment. The
origin of the basic name can be
traced to days of Teutonic paganism,
but the feminine version did not ap-
teenth century. when it was much
used at the French court.
The following are few Of the
many variations of this attractive
name: Hatty. Harriet, Harriott.

Henriette 1French. Heinrike or
Jette (German), Hendrike and Jetje
(Dutch). Endrike tSlavish). En-
rightetta Utalian). Enriqueta (Span-
ish). Henriqueta OPortuguese). Jen-
diska (Bohemian).
There have been many royal Hen
riettas. but by far the most popular
of all history were Henrietta Marie,
queen of Charles ! of England, and
her daughter Henrietta. duchess OF
orleans. Henrietta Maria was the
daughter of Henry ~ of France.
She married Charles l in 1925 and
was at first very popular with the
British people, but gradually she
lost her hold on these people through
her religious faith and despotic no.
tions When war broke out she went
to- Holland and raised funds and
troops for her husband. but after his
execution she returned with her
small daughter to France, where she
lived until her death in 1863.
Henrietta. daughter OF Henrietta
Marie, married Philip of France. Duke
of Orleans and brother to Louis XVI.
Henrietta was beautiful woman
and noted for her wit as well as for
her beauty. She was intrusted by
Louis with securing the necessary
signatures to the secret treaty OF
Dover under pretense of visiting her
brother. She died SO soon following
her return from this successful trip
that it was generally believed that
she was poisoned.
Henrietta, Countess of Suffolk. was
noted particularly for her wit at the
court of George II. She was a great
friend Of Walpole's. Lady Henri eta
Churchill was the oldest of the four
daughters of the warrior, Duke OF
Marlborough. She was also deeply
sympathetic friend of Congreve, the
| father of modern English comedy.
A famous French Henriette, heroine
| of Moliere's comedy, Les Femmes
Savantes," is portrayed as an excep-
| tionally bright and charming young
4 girl who upholds the theory that q
woman's place is in the home.
