The Connecticut labor news., 1924-08-02

The stand taken by The Labor News during the past two weeks in advising members of Organized Labor in Con- necticut to support the democratic nominees for president and vice-presi- dent rather than La Toilette and Wheeler because many leaders of Or ganized Labor in the state realize and admit there is no chance of La Fol 1ette carrying the state and to vote for him would be but to aid Coolidge and Dawes, continues to draw the fire from some of the most ardent La Fol lette supporters hereabouts., The latest blast comes from Jasper McLevy of Bridgeport, through the columns of the Waterbury Herald and in it MT. Mo Levy makes 1t personal matter with Ira M. Ornburn, secretary of the Con- necticut Federation of Labor, declaring that MT. Ornburn nor any other Labor man has the right to speak for Labor generally. Then he turns right round and assumes that right himself by de manding that Labor generally support La Toilette here no matter what the consequences.
 While MT. Ornburn may or may not coincide with the views expressed by The Labor News he certainly did not write them and did not attempt to speak for Labor either officially or un-

RAILROAD SHOPMEN
 VOTE OVERWHELMINGLY
 TO CONTINUE STRIKE
Refute Statement By Railroad That Parent Body Was to E. II d Fight August I If Men Themselves Did Not. Few M en Approve Giving Up Struggle.

Following statements publish ed in The New Haven Register and credited to the officers of the New Haven Road that the shop mems strike was to be called off by the parent body if the men didn't do so themselves an ab- solute denial was made by the strike leaders and B. M. Jewell today. The article also charged that the vote had been taken lar gely by proxy by the strike lead CTS to bolster up their cause.
 The contrary is the fact. The vote was by individual which ac- counts for the long time required to pull it.
 The following statement by the ex- ecutive committee of the striking shop men on the N. Y., N. H. & H. R. R. system explains the real situation:
 Tt having come to our attention that the impression is being created throughout the community that the strike is to be terminated on August 1st by the Railway Employees Depart ment of the American Federation of Labor we are taking this opportunity to infornJ the public that such i'm pression is grossly contrary to the facts.
 After two years of struggle, during which time several attempts have been smade by us to negotiate with the off cials of the railroad system looking to- ward an honorable settlement of the issues involved, and having been shown no consideration, we felt that we should secure, in fairness to all con- cerned, the expression of opinion of the entire body of strikers as to whether we should continue the strug- gle or not.
 Accordingly, ballots were prepared and placed in the hands of each of the entire body of strikers, and the result to date has been 3,093 in favor of con- tinuing the strike, and 145 in favor of terminating same, with the important Van Nest locality where over 450 are SI1l 10 pc II IS fully expected that the result at this point will be in the same proportion to continue.
 "The striking shopmen have shown by this ballot that they believe that the strike situation is in a better condi- ton than 1t has been at any time since it's beginning, and they are determined that justice shall be given them. The following telegram is se1f-explanatory .- Chicago, H., July 28, 1924. "J. C. Ready, New Haven, Conn.
 "We are informed membership voted by substantial majority to con- tinue strike stop Council has not ter minated New Haven strike and will not do so on August first.

WHERE J. w. DAVIS STANDS ON
 THE KHAN AND LABOR UNIONS

Any doubt that might finger in the minds of Labor men as to where John w. Davis stands on the Klan and Labor unions should be dispelled by the following excerpt from an official statement by him this week in an- sWer to leading questions. He said

Published reports of the Ministry of Labor show that during 1923, Belgium industries were, for the most part, op- erating up to the limit of their capac- ity; that the demand for agricultural labor was far in excess of the supply; and that the number of offers of en- ployment from individuals and firms exceeded request of labor applicants for placement.

The battling question as to who is

ing solved in Staten Isuand, N. T.,
where for the last Is months an en-
gineering staff has been developing
the "wired radio" inventions of Ma
jor General George O. Squier. APP
paratus has already been perfected
by which two different radio pro-
grams can be transmitted over the
lighting wires from the Staten Is

a short time equipment for transmit
ting three programs will be complet-
ed. Tentative plans of Wired Ra-

tablishment of a nationwide wired

consist of three continuous programs
