LA TOILETTE WINS
 ENDORSEMENT BUT
 IT MEANS NOTHING
New York State Federation After Big Row Finally Votes for Vest
 ern Senator.

Schenectady, N Y. Aug 30.-The expected indOrsement of Senators La Toilette and Wheeler was vored by the State Federation of Labor convention here Thursday, but not until it's course had been roundly scored and the pre- diction made that it's action will re- suit in negating the labor vote as d political force.
 The indorsement itself means noth- ing, one speaker declared, because it does not represent the sentiment of the rank and file in the labor unions and Is wasted because La Toilette doesn't stand a chance, anyway"
 The report had scarcely been com pleted when Joseph Ryan, president of the district council of the Longsnore- mems Union in New York city, op- posed it's acceptance. He said:
 If the American Federation of La bor sees fit to start an Independent third party, with labor men at its head I am with it. But the executive coun- cil has embarrassed us all by it's action in favor of La Toilette and Wheeler. They can't stand and we can't tell our members how to vote Furthermore, l don't know that President Coolidge s

AUTOIST PUSHING NON N-UNION
 "PENROD" CIGARS
Chained to Machine Just as Workers of Advertised Brand Are Chained
 to Their Molds.

With his hands manaC)ed to ma chine, even as are the hands of non union cigar makers manacled to their machines, supposed daredevil auto lSt employed by certain auto manufac- turers and the New Haven Register drove about New Haven tor 100 con- secutive hours this week, with his car plastered over with advertising signs one of which touted the notorious non union made cigar Penrod. SimuItane- ously large advs. appeared in the Reg ister lauding the cigar while other ad- vertising matter was so worded as to give the impression that the cigar was a Connecticut product and therefore one to appeal to Connecticut smokers who insist on the hand made goods.
 The facts of the matter are that the cigar Is made by a non-union firm in Binghamton, N. Y., and the only Con necticut thing about it is that it is dis tributed by the F. H. Cryg1er Tobacco company of Hartford. The Bingham ton factory brand is carefully kept off the boxes, only the government shop number being displayed as the law pro- vides. The Crygier firm name and Hartford is given much prominence, however.
 The recent suicide of B. PIotkin, manufacturer of the Bar Harbor and Imperial Green cigars, took those brands out of the market for the pres ent at least, leaving only one so-called New Haven cigar, the Kilfeather Fly perion, now being made by non-union help and marketed here. Therefore the anti-unionists are seeking to flood the market with outside non-union cigars and hte Penrod campaign is one of those instances.

OFFICERS OF RAIL
 UNION ARRESTED
 FOR CAR THEFTS
Hartford, New Haven and Spring field Men Held for High
 Courts.

Hartford, Aug 3O.-After an all-day
 grilling i'll the office of County Detec- tive Hickey Stephen Quirk of IS En- | field street, president of Local No. 118, known as Charter Oak Lodge, Broth erhood of Railroad Tra1nmen, and night conductor on the N. Y, N. H. & H. railroad, with headquarters in Hart ford, was arrested charged with steal ing from railroad freight cars. After as long grilling, and under the same charge, Dennis c. Nagle, secretary of the local, was also arrested, and with them Fred Cline of 38 Spring street, Hartford, d brakeman, and Frank Pfngstang of 589 Congress avenue, New Haven, formerly of Springfield, were also taken into custody. All are
 said to have been implicated i'll the
 entering of a freight car in hte Wind
 sor street yards and stealing suits and overcoats consigned to Hartford clothing store.
 The theft was on the night of March 16, when 1t was alleged that Quirk and Cline, with the assistance of Nagle,
 broke into the car and took out $55O worth of garments, which were taken
 to Nagle's home that afternoon where it was distributed. Pfngstag's share in
 the proceeds came through his learning

BACK
 OF RESTRICTION
 OF ONE-MAN CARS
New Haven Local Appoints Commit tee of 50 to Arouse Senti-
 ment for Ordinance.

At special meeting of general committee of 15O members of the New Haven local of the trolleymen's union, held in Erin hall yesterday afternoon and last night, a special sub-commit- tee of 50 active workers in the trolley arouse public interest i'll the proposed ordinance which will prohibit the ex- tension of the one-man cars in New Haven streets. The ordinance is now before committee of the New Haven board of aldermen and will be up for public hearing probably next week and the trolleymen will bend their efforts to get out representative gathering of officials and citizens in it's support
 The ordinance does not ban the one man car entirely but sets aside the main central streets as arterial high ways through which no Car operated by one man, other than those now allowed to pass in these streets can be oper- ated. The streets thus set aside are all too narrow as 1t is and COngested by traffic all through the day and to allow more One-man cars, especially the larger double truck cars the com pany is said to intend to make over to one-man operation, will further in crease this congestion.
 The ordinance was introduced not by the trolleymen but through the city officials themselves. It already has the support of autoists generally and the public that uses the streets and trolley cars as well. The trolleymen are in terested not alone because the com panys plan tends to reduce the num- Der of jobs but because the big cars when remOdeled will not have the safe ty devises that are on the especially built type of One-man Car such as the "dead-man' control which autOmatica1- ly stops the car if anything happens to the operator, air control of the doors and the like With traffic conditions as they are in New Haven the trolley men claim operation of these pig cars will increase the danger not only to themselves but the riding public and tie up traffic almost to the point of impassbility.

PRINTERS WAGE INCREASED

San Francisco, Aug 3O.-The Typo graphical union has secured wage in creases for it's commercial shop mem bers through arbitration proceedings, Frank R. Devlin, formerly member of the state railroad commission, acted as arbitrator and ruled that rates should be advanced from $40 to 351. This brings the local wage to practically the Chicago level and within $2 of the New York city scale.
The Connecticut labor news., 1924-08-30

The political situation this year will play a large part in the proceedings of the convention, many labor men about the state being unquestionably honestly supporting the nomination ot La Toilette and Wheeler Many To- cal unions, especially those with strong Socialist membership have also en- dOrsed that candidacy and elected dele gates instructed to support the nom inees before the state convention and there also. These may actually be sui hcient i'll number to put over such an endorsement but it is expected that there will be stormy session or two given.
 Senator Wheeler, nominee for vice president, may even address the con vention, his schedule of speaking for next week including New England with Friday the day set aside tor Connec- ticut. Those behind him in Connect1- cut are now endeavoring to have him address the meeting he being sched- uled for Hartford on Friday at noon and it is expected that he will not lose the chance to get his views be- fore the representatives of Labor in the state.
 The child labor amendment to the constitution will also be subject of much discussion and the convention will without doubt go on record as strongly in favor of the amendment and organize campaign to ensure its ratification by the legislature of the state next year. While it is recog- nized that Connecticut Is far advanced in prevention of child labor and al ready has good laws on its books, these laws do not protect the children of the country but in fact harm those in other states who are put to work at tasks from which children are barred here and that the country as a whole IS suffering thereby. A constitutional amendment embracing all the states IS the only remedy seen and despite the activities of manufacturers associations and greedy employers to stop it under the bluff of state rights Labor is de termined to do it's part in protecting the children here and throughout the country.
 The election of a secretary to sue ceed Ira NJ. Ornburn of New Haven who resigned recently to accept the managership of the Labor end of the Democratic national campaign in the east, will also be an important part of the doings Mir Ornburn held the office for the past ten years in addi ton to being state organizer for the Federation. At an especially called meeting of the executive council JoiIn J. Egan of Bridgeport, vice president, was chosen as secretary and will be candidate for election to the office by the convention
 Mr. Egan has served four terms as a vice president and member of the ex- ecutive council. He IS a machinist and organizer for that organization and IS thoroughly familiar with the affairs of the state organization. He is how -ever so it is reported, to have opposi tion from member of his own craft, Joseph Tone of New Haven, until re gently also an organizer for the ma chinists union, also being a candidate. Tone. though a democrat, is one of the ardent supporters of La Toilette and expects to draw much support in those
