Labor Cooperative Campaign

We ask the cooperation of the merchants, by listing their business on this page under it's proper heading and we ask the Laboring to spend their wages in New Haven. always remembering that 'The dollar that goes the farthest is the dollar that stays at home"
 These concerns herein listed have been sup piled with membership certificate which they are to hang in their places of business so that the Laboring men may know what concerns are members of this campaign.
The Connecticut labor news., 1924-08-23

The object of this campaign is to bring about a closer relationship and understanding be- tween the friendly merchants and the organ ized workers of New Haven
 This constructive campaign will be waged continuously and progressively for the next twelve months by the workers, and they ask the cooperation of the friendly merchants and firms of New Haven.

Return Time best.

Inc outbound voyage was made in
123 hours and IA minutes, while the
return voyage required only III
hours and A minutes. II prevailing
winds had been. as usual. from the
west. the difference would have been
greater. They were uncertain at this
time of the year. and sudden changes
frequently altered the ship speed from
30 to 20 miles an hour. or vice versa.
The difference between the net sail
ing time between ports and the time
between landings was due either to
the difficulty in locating the mast on
account of fogs or lack of signs, or
due to the use of heliunr. About 20
per cent of the sailing time was used
in this way. j amounted to % hours
and 81 minutes. The quickest moor
ing was made in 81 minutes on the
return voyage to Fort Worth.
Helium at a cost of from s55 to $50
per 900 cubic feet is too precious to
valve in gasps of hundreds of thou
sand cubic feet in order to make a
landing. Hydrogen gas is compara-
lively inexpensive. In order to save
helium, landings must be made in the
chill of darkness when the ship is
heavy. For the same reason, depart
ures of the heavily loaded ship are
made in the morning after the gas
had received the Superheat from the
sun. But for this the Shenandoah
could have dropped down to a mast,
resupplied itself with gas, fuel and
food, and been away again in two or
three hours. In the long stop in San
Diego l20 hours were used in max
ing repairs. The lifting buoyancy of
helium is also around 10 per cent less
than that OF hydrogen, reducing the
carrying capacity of the ship to that
extent. The Shenandoah is further
burdened by 90 per cent increased
weight to secure structural stability.
1t was needed.
Even with this handicap the Shen-
andoah made history. 1t blazed the
way for aerial navigation in the fu
ture by showing that the highest of
mountains are surmountable. Com
forts, improvements and new meth
DDS will come, as they have to the au-
tomobile and aeroplane, in compara-
lively few years. The voyage just
completed is considered by aeronaut-
ical authorities as concluse demonStra-
tion of the safety and convenience of
airships for passenger and commercial
transportation.

CLOSING OF OFFICES
CAUSES TRAFFIC JAM
Many Federal Employees Unaware
of Executive Order Paying Trib-
ute to Secretary Wallace.

Unaware of President Coolidge
executive order closing all Federal
departments until l o'clock this aft
ernoon out of respect to the late
Henry 9. Wallace Secretary of Agri-
culture, hundreds OF Government en-
ployes reported for duty as usual this
morning, only to return to their
homes. As q result Washington had
an extra traffic jam in the downtown
section. intersections along Penn
sylvania avenue usually free of traffic
during the middle of the day were
as congested as during the morning
and afternoon rush hours between
1880 and ! o'clock this afternoon, as
the Government workers returned to
their Offices.
Announcement was broadcast from
WCAP last. night that the federal
departments would be closed until !
o'clock this afternoon, but many OF
the government workers obviously
are not radio fans or went to bed
before the message was sent out.
Attendance at the public schools was
lower than usual today, the children
who heard the radio announcement
obviously taking it to mean that the
schools would not open. However.
regular sessions were held in all
schools, and those children who re-
mained away will be credited with an
absence.

DAWES CENTERS
FIRE ON LA Toilette
Conducts Vigorous Attack on Sen
ator's Aims on Trip Across
New York State.

Py the Associated Press.
ALBANY, y. V, October 27.-Be gin
ming the day here, Charles G. Dawes,
Republican vice presidential nominee,
today conducted a rapid-fire attack on
the La Toilette independent candi-
dacy, on trip across New York State.
The days itinerary included speech
es here. at Syracuse, Utica and Roch-
ester. The Rochester address, TO be
made tonight, will conclude Mr..
Dawes Eastern speaking tour. After
the meeting he will leave for Chicago.
The nominee on beginning the day s
schedule announced that he would
continue to devote most of his time
to attacking the La Toilette candi-
dacy, declaring that is the only is
sue in this campaign and what is the
use of discussing other issues bound
up in it?'
The Dawes special train. after leav-
ing New York at midnight, arrived in
Albany shortly after o'clock this
morning, when it was switched to a
quiet section at the depot. Mr.. Daw es
remained aboard until just prior to
the time for his Albany address, re-
ceiving in the meantime several Re-
publican leaders of this section of
the State.
Mr.. Dawes spoke here in a theater
which, despite the early hour, was
filled.
See Dangerous Effect.
The nominee declared that even a
semblance of success for this first
mobilization of extreme radicalism'
would have a detrimental effect on
business and general prosperity.
II have been in business for 20
years and / didn't seek this nomlna-
ton he told his audience. But l am
in the fight and for that reason / am
getting a lot of political advice l

the kind of advice l have been get
ting-not the kind of advice the poll
ticans give me to preach inconsistent
doctrines.
Thank God that once in while
we get a chance to vote for man
like Calvin Coolidge and thereby give
the lie to these cowardly politicians
who advocate preaching inconsist-
ency. Our Government isn't safe un-
less we have a man like Coolidge who
can stand the gaff at its head

SHIP line MUST PAY
FOR SAILORS DEATH
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October PA verdict
for $4,000 damages today was award
ed Mrs. Adelaide c. Nelson of Phila-
delphia for the death of her son, Law
renee 20, member of the crew of the
steamship Frederick, which sank in
midatlantic in January. 1916, while
en- route from this port to Archangel
with cargo of war munitions.
The Federal District Court jury
which returned the verdict. held that
the Frederick's owners, Charles w.
Morse, his son, Benjamin W.; and Capt.
Mark l.. Gilbert, had been guilty of
consiparacy in sending the vessel to
sea with the knowledge that she was
unseaworthy. The 80 members of the
crew all were lost Attorneys for the
Morses said they would appeal the YER
dict to the United States Circuit Court
of Appeals.
In Service 4. Years.
The Frederick, witnesses testified,
was considered so unseaworthy by
engineers who had brought her here
from Baltimore that they later re-
fused to put to sea in her. She had
been an Atlantic coasting freighter
for Al years, they testified, and never
before had attempted a transatlantic
passage.
Attorneys for Mrs. Nelson read into
the record messages found in a bot
tie cast up on one of the Orkney
Islands in 1917. These messages,
written by men of the crew, said the
vessel was laundering in a gale, and
made no mention of German mines or
submarines. The Frederick's owners
later contended that the vessel had
been the victim of one of these e.
3tructive agencies.

RENT SURVEY REPORT
SUBMITTED TO STONE
Gordon Transmits Results of In
vestigation to Attorney Gen.
eral for Action.

District Attorney Gordon's report
on the real estate situation in the
District of Columbia reached the De-
partment of Justice shortly after noon
today.
1t was Immediately turned over to
Attorney General Stone for his per-
sonal consideration. Officials could
not predict what disposition OF the
report Mr.. Stone VIII make. but it
was expected that it's subject mat
ter and the findings of the District
attorney would not be made public
at the department.
The report was requested by the
White House. and in all probability
the Attorney General. after care
full perusal of what the District at
torney has discovered as a result of
several months investigation, will send
it to President Coolidge.
The investigation conducted by
the District attorney followed a
previous investigation and report by
a Senate committee which charged
a combination among certain real
estate dealers in Washington, oper-
ating to the disadvantage of the
public.

CIGARETTE STARTS FIRE.
Small Blaze in Star Basement
Caused by Careless Pedestrian.

Considerable excitement, but no

in the basement of The Star building
shortly after noon today.
The flames were caused by some
careless pedestrian tossing a lighted
cigarette stump down an areaway or

there was little to do but mop up.

demonstrating the grotesque position
necessitated by the victim had he en-
deavored to shoot himself either with
lett or right hand, and my expert
ence has demonstrated that ordinarily
a person attempting suicide does NOT
use the most awkward position pos
sible. The temple is generally select
ed, or the mouth or the heart"
DIR. Martyr Agrees.
DR.. Martyr substantiated this testi-
mony in his statements on the stand
regarding the general location of a
suicide wound.
Others who testified were Stanley
kadish the sentry who discovered
the body early Wednesday morning
and officers of the medical depart
ment at Walter Reed Hospital. ka
dish stated that the body was found
face up. Experts on suicide, after
the inquest, stated that it was COM
paratively rare for a suicide to fall
face up.
Leo A. Rover, assistant District at
torney, representing the Government
at the inquest, expressed his opinion
that the case was a murder case be
fore the verdict of the jury was re-
turned, and promised the most
searching investigation so far as the
Office of the District attorney was
concerned.
AS to the murder itself, Kadish.
who found the body, expressed a be-
lief that the man was not murdered
on the spot where it was found but
that it had been carried there. 1t
was learned from members of the en-
listed personnel at the hospital that
in the southeastern section of the
grounds was n fence dividing the
reservation from other property. to
which bootleggers were known to
have come for disposal of their wares.
The deceased is known as a man who
was not addicted to intoXicants,
however, and the opinion was eX-
pressed that he might possibly have
interrupted an Illicit transaction.
This theory goes further. 1t ex-
tends to the point that the bullet
found in the body of the deceased,
although from a revolver of the same
caliber as the. one he carried, did not,
however come from the exploded
cartridge found in his revolver, but
from an unknown assailant. And the
exploded cartridge found in the re-
volver is explained by the possibility
that he had fired at the assailant just
before his death.
