REPUBLICAN TARIFF BLAMED
Record of New York Is Typical Of Other Industrial States.

In view of the claim of President Coolodge and Chairman Butler, of the Republican National Committee that unemployment has ceased to exist un- der the Harding-C Coolidge adn1inistra- ton, and that labor is more fully en1- ployed at higher wages than ever before employment figures for the State of New York for the month of August, just made public, are of interest.
 The figures, compiled by the State Department of Labor, show that dur ing August, in the textile and silk goods mills, employment was 24.o per cent less than in July and payrolls de creased 16.o per cent. The decrease under August 1923, was 412 per cent in employment and 37.1 per cent in payrolls.
 In wool manufactures, employment was 2,3 per cent and pay rolls 3.7 per cent under July, and employment 18.9 per cent and pay rolls 25.1 per cent under August, 1923.
 In cotton goods factories employ ment was 34 and pay rolls 448 per cent under July, and POP and PIP per cent, respectively. under August, 1923
 Tn more than fifty industries em- p1oying labor, August employment showed a decrease of 138 per cent under August. 1923, and pay rolls showed falling off of 12o
 New York endowment and pay roll statistics are typical of other industrial states, where both jobs and wages have sadly slumped as a result of the check to production and commerce i'm posed by the Fordney-McCumber tariff act and the Republican policy of deha- ton. into whose meshes agriculture and labor were first to became entangled

New York, Oct. 10-Financia1 papers are preparing the public mind for gi- gantic bread trust that will include the United bakeries corporation, the Ward baking corporation and the General bak- ing company. Old ovens, with a capa- city of 360 loaves an hour, are now re- placed by automatic machinery with travelling ovens that produce 1000 loaves an hour
 One financial journal says: "The say ing in labor by automatic machinery is indicated by the fact that in some of the more modern plants whole floor full of ovens turning out thousands of loaves hourly, wrapped, and packed in boxes, requires the services of half a dozen men who oil the machines"
 These large baking concerns buy the output of flour mills General baking company made tremendous profits out of its excess wheat purchase because of the recent increase in the price of wheat -....

POSTAL CLERKS
 INDIGNANT OVER
 LATEST ''HOLDUP"
Republican Leaders And Postmasters Attempting to Coerce Federal
 Workers.
OFFICIAL WARNING SOUNDED
Secretary Flaherty Reminds Workers They Are Entitled to Vote As
 They Please.

Postal clerks in Connecticut were vio- 1ently aroused last week by the pub hshed news that Republican politicians and federal postmasters are threatening federal workers with discharge unless they vote for President Coolidge.
 The state clerks, almost to man had decided to vote against the Republican ticket this year In view of the latest revelations, they are more determined than ever to do all in their power to prevent the election of Calvin Coolidge.
 The claim that workers are being "clubbed" into voting the Republican ticket is supported by the statement oI Thomas F. Flaherty, executive secre- tary of the Post Office Clerks fedora ton. The statement of Flaherty, broad cast into every postoffice in the country, is as follows:
 "The efforts of many postmasters to- day to make their clerks vote for Cal win Coolidge Is unlawful, as was the ef fort some time back to Bascomb S1emp, the presidents secretary, to collect mo- ney for campaign purposes from the postmasters. d..
 "One $8,OO0 year postmaster, who has been showing up for work only three hours day and working at poli- tics the rest of the time told his clerks they would be dismissed at once if they even expressed favorable view toward La Toilette or Davis.
 "We are informing all the 3OO,OOO postal clerks that 1t will be no crime to vote as they please"

Empires Don't Hold
 Lifelong Position

New York, Oct. 10-According to the Wall Street Journal ex-Governor Tener of Pennsylvania, former major lea que ball player, "has given by far the best illustration of what popular revi- sion of supreme court decisions would mean"
 MT Tener asks wi nat would happen to base ball if the umpires' decisions were subject to decision by the spec tators?"
 Both MT. Tener and the Wall Street Journal overlook the fact that an in competent umpire, or one who is even suspected of bias, does not hold his po- sition very long. He is not appointed for life, and his interpretation of rule can be appealed to the president of that league.
 The Wall Stret Journal not only ex- hibits an incapacity for reasoning, but i. shows its unfairness when it intimates that the opponents of court usurpation favor popular revision of supreme court decisions"
 The only time that has been seriously urged was when Theodore Roosevelt favored 1t in 1912

MAY \ EXPOSE METHODS
 OF REPUBLICANS
Friends Urge Him to Unmask Leaders
 Who Hamper With Public Trust
THEY SAY IT IS HIS DUTY
Governor Is Well Informed on Work ings of Selfish Political Organiza-
 ton.

Friends of Governor Charles A. Tenn pleton of Waterbury are urging him to make public the charges he made pri- vately against Republican management in Connecticut during a conversation with Frank P. Fenton of Windham, Democratic congressional nominee of the Second district.
 The claim is made that it is Cover nor Templeton's duty to inform the public of the disgracefu1 conditions ex- isting as implied i'll the newspaper story published last week.
 Wide interest has been aroused over the story in view of the belief that Gov ernor Templeton proposes to expose the workings of the political machine responsible for the highly extravagant administrations.
 Fenton challenged Governor Temple to repeat his charges during an address in Norwich He later reiterated the town. He said
 eff he (Governor. Templeton) will
 say publicly what he said to me
 privately, it will be the greatest
 Democratic argument ever offered
 in Connecticut.
 "I believe that Governor Temple
 ton ought to take the stump for the
 Democratic State ticket in this
 campaign. He need not shift his
 allegiance to the republican na-
 tional party if he does not want to,
 but he certainly should work for
 the Democratic state ticket"
 Incidentally, Fenton gave lengthy last week in support of Charles c. Morris of Newtown, Demo cratic nominee for governor.
 Charlie Morris, like myself, is a past commander of the Spanish War Vet erans and there is not man in that or ganization who does not recognize his splendid ability and character" said Fenton. .'He certainly ranks high and deserves to win the governor ship"
