 We had a peculiar experience be- fore and after we put up this building" saia MT. Hohmann. This is a resi- dence neighborhood, and we had to get the signatures of a majority of the property owners hereabouts before we could start to build. We obtained the signatures of all of the property own CTS of the neighborhood except six, who objected on the ground that the,v did not want labor headquarters here because there always would be crowds out in front who would obstruct pedes- trians and expectorate on the side walk. After the building had been erected and we had occupied it for time the six ebjecting property owners came over to see us and begged per mission to withdraw their objections and to be allowed to sign our petition

Harris influence Then too, for years Mr. Harris has been recognized as one of the commercial leaders of this section of the country, and in taking over the exclusive own ership of the Mendel & Harris depart ment store he has gained for its patronage many buying opportunities that would be impossible ordinarily. For the new year many special plans, new ideas and greater buying chances will be offered. This paper feels that it's readers will find it decidedly to tb-ir

As reward for their conscientious, loyal service, MT. Sol Harris, sole own CT of Mendel & Harris Department Store on Chapel street. has authorized the distribution of a Christmas bonus of $5O00 to employees in sums ranging from $10 to $500, based on the amount of salary and the length of service of the employe. This bonus has been granted because MT. Harris feels that those employees who have helped him to make the Mendel & Harris store the shoppin gcenter of New Haven are entitled to reward. And it is hoped in succeeding years to double and even triple this sum.
 The past year has witnessed great increase in patronage-in fact this commercial advancement of the store has been rapid and thorough since MT.

LARGE BREAD TRUST
 SEEN AS WEAPON TO CUT WAGES
By International Labor News Service.

By International Labor News Service
 Chicago, Dec. 27.-Notwithstandin the fact that the Bakery and Confec .ionery Workers International Unior iof America is confronted with the greatest menace in its history, the officers of that organization are not discouraged and are viewing the fu- lure with optimism.
 | The menace confronting the jour neyman bakers is the recently organ- lzed gigantic bread trust, officially 1 known as the Continental Bakeries Corporation, $500,O00,OO0 concern incorporated under the laws of Mary land. Some of the large baking com panies that have been acquired by the trust are the General Baking Com pany, the Trenhan Company, the American Baking Company, United Bakeries Corporation, Tri-State Bak- ing Company and the Campbell Sys- tenn
 
 The United Bakeries Corporation is controlled by the Ward interests and does an extensive business in eastern Pennsylvaia, Connecticut, New Jersey and Chicago. The Campbell System operates 12 or Is bakeries in the Mid dle West, and the Tri-State Baking Company covers large territory in Ohio, Michigan and Indiana. The Brennan Company has bakeries in Chicago and Detroit.
 The only union concern entering the combine is the American Baking Company of St. Louis, Mo-, which employs about 200 union men,
 Bokers' Union in Good Shape.
 "We have had a great deal to con- tend with in the last few years, but we have come out of it all in very good shape" said Charles F. Hoh- mann, international corresponding sec retary and editor of the Bakers Jour nal, in an interview with Internationa1 Labor News Service. We own this building that we are in, we have 5000, ,000 in our treasury and our mem Dership has decreased but little despite the relentless warfare that has been waged against us my many of the large baking companies. 'The worst thing that we have had to contend with is the fight with the Ward company" said MT. Hohmann. After operating it's 16 bakeries under union conditions for six years, it de- clared for the open shop on May 1,

 Company Pays Big Dividends.
 The company pad its stocKnolders dividends amounting to $1,4Sz,I15 tor the year previous to its open shop declaration. l his was equ1vaIent to 1Io per cent on its total capItaliza- ton, clearly demonstrating its ability to make money, on unlon basis and even at higher wage rate.
 Just what this gigantic bakery merger IS going to mean to the Amer ican people and the bakery workers remains to be seen," continued MT. Hohmann. We believe that the pur- pose behind it all is to increase the price of bakery goods and decrease the wages of bakery workers. The bakery workers can not do much toward controlling the price of hte product, but wee certainly shall have something to say as to wages and con- ditions of employment"
 Onion Owns Fine Building.
 MT. Hohmann took great prlde in showing the visitor over the hne new headquarters building owned by the Bakery and Confectionery Workers International Union of America, To- cated at 271o Best avenue, Chicago. The building is two-story and base ment brio kstructure, which occupies a part of five lots owned by the inter national union. Everything about the place is modern and in good taste, but no effort at ostentation is discernable.
 Union Labels, Used by Millions.
 The basement is occupied by the Midwest Printing Company, which does all of the printing for the bakers and prints the blue union labels for the cigar makers. A part of the third floor is used as stock room for thousands of reams of union water marked paper used by the printing plant.
 The bakers use one billion union labels year, which means that the American peopld are consuming one billion loaves of union-made bread and :akes each 12 months.

Hohmann pointed to a big pile ,f United States mail sacks which 1 we're filled with beautifully printed 1 o25 calendars that are being sent to | entral bodies and local unions the United States and the total number of calendars eing 35,000.
