Together they represent more than 1000 members and are therefore cin- siderable addition to the Council and will add much to the united strength of Organized Labor in New Haven in the future.
 Women delegates from the striking employees of the Wa1tham Watch Company plant in Waltham, Mass, were present and asked credentials to visit local unions and present their case and ask for financial assistance. More than 2,500 workers have been on strike against the watch company for several months to enforce union conditions and prevent cut in wages. The cre- dentials were readily given and the delegates asked to urge their locals to assist so far as possible.

AUSTRALIAN LABOR WANTS PAN-PACIFIC
 CONGRESS ON WAR
See ImPerialistic Scheme in Recent N Political Development; Press
 Creates a Scare.


 Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Attempts are being made by the labor press of Australia to rouse the orga- nlzed workers of the Australian Labor Party to a realization of the necessity of interesting themselves in what the capitalistic parties term 'The Problem of the Pacif1c.s Imperialist politicians refer quite openly to the "need for pre- pairing for the next world war;" the scene of which, they declare, will be the Pacific Ocean.
 The workers, however, have been slow to recognize that their destinies are closely linked up with those of workers in other countries bordering on the Pacific. In June, 1921, at the All Australian Trades Union Congress, held in Melbourne 1t was resolved that a Pan-Pacifc Congress of workers be called for the purpose of discussing this very problem, but lack of solidarity caused the question to be shelved and forgotten.
 Anti-labor politicians and their press are having free field for military and naval propaganda in the name of "de- fense." The newspapers seize every opportunity to create scare. The threat of invasion by an unnamed Paci hc power is favorite theme. As an example of this, the Sun, Sidney, in recent editorial stated
 @.No reasonable man looks upon eitI1- CT America or Japan as hostile powers. At the same time, anything, may hap pen in international affairs, and it IS no use blinking the fact that either of these powers may find it necessary or polite some day to take up a strong attitude toward Australia"
 In this way the fears of the unso- phisticated are played upon in order to gain popular sanction for costly arm aments program The persistence of militaristic propaganda has caused La. bor writers to take up the question or labor's responsibility in this regard.
 At the recent conference of the All Australian Trades Union Congress, w. F. Finlayson, a labor. ex-menber of the Australian Parliament, who has recently toured the United States, brought greet ings from various labor bodies to com rades in Australia He stated that there was a general desire on the part of la Dor in U. s. A. to get into closer touch with labor in Australia. If that is so, then workers in Australia and in the U. s. A. are of the same mind, and nothing would prevent responsible labor, organizations from getting together on the question.

 It seems to the writer as though the correspondent to the Typographical Journal from New Haven could be bet ter informed than he apparently is in regard to conditions in the commercial plants of the city as he is employed on a newspaper where the chief officer of No. 47 also hangs up his hat. There has been no signed scale in New Haven since the Settle nent" of the 44-hour strike of the jobbers and apparently there will be none unless the job printers themselves attend their meetings, open the scale, and insist on a signed agreement The scale can be opened now or any time in the future by the members attending the meetings and voting to do so. Come on, you job printers, at tend your meetings, better your scale, and get a signed agreement If you want it, but If you have no signed agreement, and simply verbal under standing you are in better position, in the belief of the writer, as you can open your scale then at any time you feel the need to do so.
 As the newspapers scale terminates next May the newspaper workers will without a question open it and if 1t lies within the bounds of hu man possibility they will get an in crease or make it their business to know the reason why. And for that reason, if for no other, the jobbers of New Haven should attend the meet ings of No. 47 and open their scale and not sit back and wait for an increase which they will never get unless they demand it.
 Yours truly,

tIon to maintain wage standards with in comparatively short time,' MT. Hedrick declared
 Building keeps money in circula- ton, as practically none of our mem bers save anything and all receive good pay.
 'I was deeply interested in report on a speech made at the bankers con- vention, in which one banker was quoted saying:
 "'We are unable to do business with European countries. First, they have no gold; second, we cannot accept their goods because that would inter fere with the manufacturers of the United States, and, third, their secur- it1es are worthless. In order to make their securities worth an American dol lar 1t will be necessary to reduce the wages of men and women of the United Staets.
 "'Of course,' the banker said, they should be brought voluntarily together and shown the necessity of accepting the reduction. Of course, the men and women will suffer for the time being until the necessities of life come down in proportion, but the suffering will be nothing compared to the suffering they will have to undergo if we have to en- force the reduction of wage scales on them against their will
 President Hedrick said that the ad- dress of the banker quoted was not generally published in the newspapers, possibly because of its effect on the election, which occurred soon after it was made. E.
 .This class of men tried to reduce wages few years ago, but failed, as far as the building trades men were concerned, but if they should again try to reduce wages dthe workers are divided among themselves the attempt would cause more suffering than If the workers were united" President He'd rick said
 He disclosed that he has started negotiations looking toward dec1ara- ton of peace between the carpenters and the building trades department.
 T have talked with officers of the carpenters, and I believe that we will settle this matter" he said "It will take time, of course, as the difficulty has existed for almost four years"

Stone Declares People Cannot Be
 Coerced By Restrictive Rules
They Do Not Want.

i New York, Nov. 22.-United States Attorney General Stone, speaking at the 1 induction of Huger w, Jervey as Dean of the Law School of Columbia Uni versity, the position held by MT. Stone when he was appointed Attorney Gen eral, voiced what many interpreted as criticism of such legislative acts as the Volstead law.
 There is a growing and insistent complaint" he said, ''that our system of law enforcement is breaking down and that there is an increasing lack of re- spect for the law. The vigor and hdel- ity of public officials and the temper and psychology of the people are elements of first importance in all problems of law enforcement But upon them the whole responsibility for its success does mot rest.
 'fWe make a prodigious number of laws In enacting them we disregard the principles of Craftsmanship and leave in uncertainty their true meaning and effect. More and more we take over into the field of positive law that sphere of human action which has been hitherto untrammeled by legal restric- tions, without thought of the extent to which a wise policy may leave some phases of human activity to control of al to he of tn e community sense of what is right conduct
 "We disregard the principle that there is a point beyond which the re- straints of positive law cannot be car ried without placing too great a strain on the machinery and agencies of law enforcement We leave out of account the true relationship of the law to be enforced to the machinery for enforc ing it. We build up our administrative machinery with ever increasing powers and authority in administrative officers at the expense of individual liberty and freedom Of the citizen.
 "To preserve in our system the prin. cip1es of individual liberty and to ac- commodate to them the requirements of an efficient administrative system, to as certain the principles which govern the relationship of positive law to the ma chinery and processes of law enforce ment are problems which cannot De solved wholly in the field of politics and of government. To their solution, schools of law and of political science have contributions to make
 There must be brought to bear upon them the same thoroughgoing research, the same analysis carried forward in the spirit of science and of scholarship as have hitherto been devoted to the sturdy of the common law.
 These fields of study and investiga- ton, these opportunities for high public service, insistently call for the employ ment of that unique capacity for re- search and analysis which has been .'c- veloped by methods of study and m struction in the modern American law schools"

A. FL. TO URGE
 LEWIS FOR POST
Convention Gets Resolution Endorsing Miner For Labor
 Secretary.

Fl Paso, Tex, Nov. 22.-Organized labor will clash with President Coolidge over the Kelly-Edge bill increasing the salaries of 100000 postal employees when Congress convenes next month.
 Also it will ask favor of Mr. Cool idge if, as seems most probable, it adopts resolution presented to the con- vention of the American Federation of Labor by R. C. Bonney, representative of the Order of Railroad Photographers, calling for the appointment of John L. Lewis, President of the United Mine Workers of America, as Secretary of Labor.
 z MT. Lewis, who heads the miners del egation, will not arrive until tomorrow, when a word from him will assure the passage of or kill the resolution. Its passage may be taken as an open decla- ration of his candidacy for the place for which he has been mentioned for more than year.
 Edward J. Gainor, President of the Letter Carriers, Thomas F. Flaherty, of the Postal Clerks and w. M. Collins, of the Railway Mail Service, sponsor the resolution calling for the passage over Mr. Coolidge's veto of the bill increas- ing the wages of their constituents. As the Federation fought for the bill, and the Executive Council has declared for 1t, passage of the resolution, instructing the Federation's legislative agents to work for its passage over the veto, is certain.
 The resolution was adopted on We'd nesday.
