L. OP. THREATENS
 POSTAL WORKERS
Leader of Federation Says Postmasters
 Are Using Force to Aid Party.

Republican politicians and Federal postmasters have threatened postal workers with discharge unless they vote for President Coolidge, it was charged today by Thomas F. Flaherty of the Post Office Clerks Federation. Such charges, if true, Flaherty, executive sec retarys says are III violation of the civil service law.
 The efforts of many postnasters to- day to make their clerks vote for Cal win Coolidge is unlawful" Flaherty de clared "as was the effort some time back to Bascorne Slemp, the presidents secretary, to collect money for campaign purposes from the postmasters.
 One $9,OOO a-year postmaster, who has been showing up for work only three hours a day and working at poli- tics the rest of the time, told his clerks they would be dismissed at once if they even expressed a favorable view toward Davis.
 We are informing all of the 3OO,000 postal clerks that it will be no crime to vote as they please"

MORRIS WALLOPS
 SPECIAL PRIVILEGE
 AND WAGE HASHES
Democratic Nominee for Governor Demands Public Utilities Be
 Properly Regulated Here.

The democratic party convention III Connecticut builded better than it knew when 1t selected Charles c. Morris of Newtown and New Haven as its nomi- nee for the governorship as IS apparent from the aggressive manner in which MT Morris has taken hold of the cam paigning and the consequent worry he is giving his republican opponents. His opponent for gubenatorial honoTs, Prof. Hiram Bingham of Yale, has been sick at his home for several days since Mr. Morris began his speaking tours but of course It cannot be declared that Mr. Morris aggressiVeness caused the collapse of the exploring professor. He is losing his grippe now, reports state but enthusiastic democrats say lie Host his grip" on the governorship the mo- ment MT. Morris got busy
 MT. Morris although descendant from the so-called Old Fashioned dem ocracy showed immediately he was Up to date on present problems affecting the state and nation and has not hesi- tated to meet them. Although sue cessful business man and lawyer, he has no patience with special privilege" and monopolies as he bluntly declared to a large audience al East Haven on Thurs day night.
 The reason I am Democrat is be- cause I do not believe in special privi- leges. It may be for the good of all

 Don Chain, Gun Man

Huntington, w. Va, Oct. 4.-Don Chain, coal owners gun man and sheriff of Logan county, has been in dicted for bootlegging. Several of Chahn's deputy sherjffs and fellow gun men were caught in the net, fol- lowing a six-n1onths' Investigation by federal officials.
 Chains record as a gun man has been established by terrorizing min CTS, their wives and children.
 This so-called bad man" was one of the cheer leaders for Davis in the democratic national convention. He was given much r1blicity by New York newspapers until some one sensib1y advised that he retire from the scene.

 Busted Bank O. K

Chicago, Oct. 4-Charles c. Dawes, had more than a passing interest last year in the election of Jude Jesse Hol- den, notorious injunction judge.
 The Illinois state federation of labor who made a decision favorable to Dawes and his band when suit was filed to secure a return of the $1,25O,OO0 which he loaned to another bank for d day This loan fooled state examiners and they issued charter to the bank The money was then returned to Dawes concern and the new bank failed after a few months The receiver dis covered that the $1,250,000 advertised as capital surplus" was the Dawes creek that was loaned for day
 When Judge Holden was up for re- election last fall Dawes called his Minute Men of the Constitution" to the polls in support of Holden. At that time Dawes made the ridiculous state ment that this injunction judge was fol- lowing the constitution and the laws of Illinois,
 After Holden was reelected, Dawes boasted in another pamphlet that he and his Minute Men" made Holden's suc- cess possible.
 The Illinois state federation of labor has listed the attacks Dawes has made on public officials and trade union off, cials, and his oft-repeated contempt for the people.
 We can not refrain from expressing the opinion that as demagogue Charles c. Dawes has no peer in American poli- tics," the trade unionists say

 UNITED STATES
 TOTAL MILLIONS
Sage Foundation Finally Finds Out Things Not as Rosy as
 Painted.

New York, Oct 4-From 10 to F per cent. of all the workers in the United States are continuously out of employment when good and bad years are averaged. Each year from 100000 to 6OOOO0O persons are out of work for weeks and sometimes for months at a time.
 , The Russe1 Sage Foundation amour ces this as one of its discoveries follow ing five years investigation of the question of unemployment. The aver age is based upon statistics covering the last two decades. The study touched 70 cities and 31 states and Canada.
 Widespread unemployment is now a constant phenomenon with far-reaching economic, social, psychological and mo- ral bearings" 1t Is stated.
 The introduction to the report says
 There IS something which we are just beginning to recognize-a resent ment on the part of the workers against an industrial situation in which such insecurity and uncertainty of employ rnent are possible It is not only un- employment-the knowledge that any job is uncertain and insecure, subject to- the fluctuations of economic change which is responsible for much of our present industrial unrest"
 Attention is called to the exploitation of unskilled, semi-skilled and casual workers by private employment agen- cies. A program of perfecting the pub lie employment agencies until they drive the private concerns from the field is recommended

O'SULLIVAN PLANS PROTECTION FOR
 ALL WATER RIGHT
Congressman Opposes Giving Away Peoples Power to Private
 Individuals.

Coo1idge's pledge to aid reclamation and power projects was the headline greeting one read in a recent news des- patch that eninated in the white House and to say the least the farmers ot this section have received Ii with ice cold consideration.
 One wants to know if he will let a person like Fall, Denby, or Doherty do the projectiig. Another wants to know if the plans intended will be carried out along the lines that his party has de- veloped the water power projects III Connecticut or whether the president would approve a commission to handle the situation, as he proposes to do with legislation affecting the farmers? Com pare the statement of Congressman P. B. O'Sullivan regarding conservation of water rights and one wonders at the Presidents lack of knowledge on the conservation of natures and the people wonders in big note speech at Hart ford.
 However, 1 deem Ii of such import ance that I am impelled to outline my theories on Connecticuts' natural water resources. The future vii be an age of electricity, into whatevere industry we may go, electricity vii be the power which will move the wheels. Mills and factories will consume it, trains will en- ploy it. The homes of the city will be lighted and the machinery on the farm will be run by it. Electricity will be as important to the future as steam has been to the past.

BUILDING TRADES
 COUNCIL IS ONCE MORE ESTABLISHED
Delegates Skeptical of Success, How ever ,as Same Old Crowd'
 Assumes Control.

Efforts that have been in the works for the past several months to reorga- nize the New Haven Building Trades Council and restore ii to an again ac- lively functioning body were almost suc- cessful this week when a meeting of delegates was held at Trades Council hall and formal effort to reorganize was made, The meeting was attended by Secretary John J. Egan of the C.. F. of L. and representative of the state building trades and things looked bright for the reestablishment of the body until the same forces that it is claimed caused the dissension within the body before, again assumed control of affairs and dominated the session after officers had been elected. As result while the Council was organized, many of the delegates present immediately dropped interest in it and it now ap- pears that the work will have to be done all over again.
 The attendance at the meeting, while representing the majority of the build ing trades was by no means unanimous. Neither the bricklayers nor the plumb CTS and steamhtters were in attendance and it Is not definitely established as yet whether or not they will reafiliate again. The bricklayers resigned more than a year ago in dissatisfaction with the manner in which certain members were insisting on running things and withdrew from the Trades Council also automatically at the same time. The plumbers hung on until the Building Trades Council ceased to function and it is understood are willing to reafiliate

Declares Veteran Lead CT Is Losing His Grip and Become Mouth piece of More Radical Minority Seeking to Dominate American LabOr-Regrets Loss of His Former Fear leSSneSS.

That Samuel Gompers has been relegated to the minority and no longer wields his powerful infu- ence for conservatism in the poli- cies of the American Federation of Labor but has been compelled to follow the dictates of the more radical members, is the declara- ton made in a slashing editorial in the New Haven Journal Cour- fer this week dealing with MT. Gompers endorsement of the La Toilette plan to take away the powers of the Supreme Court. It is labelled MT. Gompers At His Worst and goes on to say that he Is speaking questionably for the Federation he has so long headed when he urges its mem bers to approve of such scheme as La Toilette has in mind. The newspaper speaks regretfully at Mir. Gompers apparent loss if in auence and his loss of his previous fearless leadership, the editorial being as follows:
 Mir. Gompers At His Worst.
 MT. Gompers makes a sorry showing as the advocate of the La Toilette plan to take from the supreme court the duty conferred upon 1t by the consti- tuition to pass upon the validity of leg islation brought to it for formal inter pretation. The objection to the law as it is, on the part of MT. Gompers, speaking questionab1y in behalf of the American Federation of Labor, in- c1udes an indictment of the court as wrongfully exercising veto power" over legislation enacted by the repre- sentatives of the people in congress, and a charge of "usurpation of power" in the exercise of it's duty. It is aston isf1ing that a man of his natural ability and keen tdiscernment, so often dis played, should find satisfaction in such an ignorant discussion of an obvious fact, or expect thoughtful men to fol low and accept his conclusions arrived at by deliberate misrepresentation of

DAVIS MAKES A SHARP ATTACK ON COOLIDGE AND HIS HIGH EXPONENT OF
 HIGH FINANCE, SECRETARY MELLON
Democratic Nominee for President Makes Hit With Big ThrOng By Blunt Denuncia- tiOn of "Rule of Si- lence" at Washington and MellOn's Tariff Profits.

John W. Davis, may have been the counsel of the House of Morgan, but he is far from the dominated hire1ing of Big Business as his opponents have been touting as Is indicated by the manner that he went after these same interests this week in opening the final There is no greater scion of Big business" than Secretary Mellon the Coolidge cabinet treasury head, and one of the wealthiest men, if not the wealthiest in the country. No one knows just how much he is worth and he was father of the Mellon tax bill defeated in the last Congress by which the wealthy would be relieved of the surtaxes and the burden shifted to the man of small income,
 MT Davis at Frederick, Md, this week made a slashing attack on MT. Mel1on and the entire Coolidge admin ing Coo1idge's administration rule oi silence" because he has nothing that he can say to his credit or the credit of the administration for the last three and a half years.
 The nominee alluded 10 the recent denial of Mellon that his aluminium corporation had profted by the Re publican tariff Mellon, Davis said, had accused himself by making ex- cuses.
 Davis quoted officials of the company as having said the concern earned $10,OOO,OOO net annually for the last 10 years. The tariff burden, therefore, Davis said, is 'an unnlitigated burden upon consumers
 The Democratic nominees denuncia- ton of the Coolidge administration for it's rule of silence" made a hit with the crowd.
 No one can deny that the chief characteristic of the present adnlinis- tration is silence" said Davis. If scandals break out in the government, the way to treat them is with silence. II p6tteQ 1nQutT16S make eXOTD1tant profits under an extortionate tariff, the answer is silence. If the League of Nations foreign powers invite us into conferences on questions of world wide importance, again the answer is silence. If race and religious preju- dices threaten our domestic harmony, the answer is silence.
 If a wandering secretary of the navy plans speaking trip, as soon as the fact is discovered he is brought back to Washington and reduced to silence. If a Congressional committee wishes to investigate the treasury, the answer is silence. Now and then, how ever, some one under the stress of deep and uncomfortable emotion for gets the rule and breaks into speech or print.

Neither MT. Smith nor MT O'Meara
 were present at the meeting Thursday
 night so MT. Murphy who acted as
 temporary president and might there
 fore have had powers to act in place
 of former president Smith as a censor
 of The Labor News was asked by the
 editor for statement of what had
 transpired that was fit to print. !
 Il can't even talk to you'' he declared
 And when asked point blank why
 not added he didn't dare to and that was that
 Another delegate who has always taken a keen interest in Trades Coun- ell affairs was also asked for informa- ton but evaded by saying he had not been present at the meeting although he was present and heard the entire argu- ment.
 Finally the secretary, Joseph Reilly, was reached and being member of the board of censors did furnish the information that the meeting had done little of importance other than seat new delegates from the Carpenters and Metal Workers crafts and that the meeting had been addressed by a shoe worker.
 Asked whether President Smiths formal resignation which had been ex- decided to resign because he has en- tered the contracting business and was therefore no longer able to officiate, had come in MT. Reilly replied that while the resignation had not been re- ceived the office had been declared vacant because MT. Smith had resigned as member of the Carpenters dele gation and not being a delegate could not continue as president. When asked If an election of successor had been held MT. Reilly replied that none had but the constitution provided that the vice-president fill out the unex- presumably is now head of the council MT. Webster IS out of town in con- nection with his duties as an officer of the Metal Polishers Union so was not at the meeting.
 That's as far as the official" news of the meeting went. Not word about the row over The Labor News being able to secure information of what was going on, so if the account as given herewith is not in accord with the wishes or the views of those who started 1t, The Labor News will be pleased in its issue of next week to give their version of what happened.

The antagonism towards The Labor
 News has been evidenced for several
 months or since The News published authentic story of the endorsement pro-
 posal for the LaFollette ticket in which
 1t truthful1y lined up some members
 supposed to be leaders in other political
 parties had recanted their former align
 ment and declared themselves openly
 for LaFollette and his policies. Whether
 or not it was feared this public expose
 of their doings would prevent them
 from inserting their influence in the
 other party affairs or whether it was
 just simply that after booming LaFol- 1ette they didn't want their hands to be
 cen in the move, these same members created such furore at the following meeting that the endorsement the La
 bor News has enjoyed since its insti- tuition, was returned to the Council with thanks by the publisher and the news
 paper withdrew from the Council.
 A press committee was then appointed to censure all news matter that the La bor News was to be permitted to pub fish of the doings of the Trades Coun- Gil but this committee hasn't functioned as to date the Labor News editors have been unable to get in touch with its
 1embers, until today when one member of the committee did give out the in formation he was permitted to give, that being about the office of president being vacated, several new delegates seated and-o yes-that the meeting was addressed by a representative of the shoe workers union who urged the dele gates to purchase union made and la belled shoes
 Not word was said about the storm and strife that dominated the meeting about the Labor News being able to secure information of what had gone on at previous meetings. Delegate Tone of the machinists, Fitzgerald of the hoisting engineers, Strachan of the car penters and one or two others who have i been leading the drive against the pa pers, led the Announcement Thursday | night The Labor News was charged | with publishing things that might lead one to believe that "near riots'' were the | rule at Trades Council meetings just at present, that deliberate mis-statements 1 had been made and other like attacks | been made upon the delegates individ- ually when indeed nothing is farther from the truth itself.
