He used an ON5 Curtiss motor and d Challenger plane. The flight was vis- ible from Moriden. Wallingford. and surrounding towns. The tcmpcraturc was much colder against the "ceiI- ing, ' as shown by the fact that the water in the motor fell from 1So ue- erecs when on the field 10 so degrees at the 10.000-foot mark.
 Hadigan completed the first dawn to dusk flight made in New Eng land two years ago when he was connected with the l.. X II. Aircraft company of Hartford. At that time he used the same type of plane and
 motor as was used in yesterdays flight
 The mark set yesterday is as high as any plane can attain under ordinary circumstances Hadiean de- clarod when the plane landed. Great CT heights are made with specially prepared planes and without the added weight of gasoline and a me- chanic.

HAVERHILL STRIKE
 CRISIS IS REACHED
Owners Refuse to Negotiate
 Further-Open Shop Runors

Haverhill. Mass, July 16 (UP)- The Haverhill Shoe Manufacturers association announced today it would conduct no further negotiations with the Shoe Workers Protective Union with view to settling this citys shoe strike, affecting 5000 operatives and about 40 factories.
 The announcement was contained in lengthy statement published in local newspaper in which the Manufacturers association set forth it's position on the six fundamental questions of dispute.
 Open Shop Rumors
 Reports that an open shop move ment was imminent gained weight with the publication of the associa- tion's views, and it was generally be- licved that some of the strike-crip- pied shops would attempt to reopen on that basis next Monday.
 In it's statement, the manufactur- CTS organization referred 10 the 10 per cent wage cut voluntarily accept ed by the operatives in June, 1928, declaring that this had enabled fac tory owners to compete successfully with outside companies. It is this 10 per cent cut which the operatives now seek 10 cancel. They also seek A hour five day week
 Earnings Greater
 The statement averrcd that the earnings of local operatives were 2S.9 per cent greater than those of St Louis. Mo, and 29,7 per cent higher than the average of Lowell Georgetown, Newburyport and Der by, \. II.
 Concerning the strikers demand for fl hour week, the manufactur- CTS declared that the 4S hour week yves fairly general throughout the in dustry, and that in Maine and New Hampshire the 54 hour week was in. effect in many places.
 The manufacturers argued that any new agreement should be of three years duration to prevent a recurrence of upheavals such as that now crippling the city's princi- pal industry. The strikers favor a one year agreement.
 Pamphlets Distributed
 Pamphlets signed by the Shoe Workers Section of the Trade Union Education League" were being cir Culatcd here today. urging the strik- CTS to hold out for a 40 hour week instead Of the A hour week now sought Several other radical de- mands were made in the pamphlets,

Declares Elections Here Do

LONDON, April 15.-The Express
yesterday printed an interview with
Winston Churchill, at his country home
in WeSternham, in which the chancellor
of the exohequer expresses the opinion
that they order it better in America in
the matter of government and elections
than do the British.
Replying to q question about the COM
ing general election, Mr.. Churchill said
Everything Is in the lap Of the gods,
or perhaps we should more properly
say in the lap of the goddeSseS. IRE
ferring to the hitherto untried "happer
vote" It is impossible to foresee what
is going to happen.
There has never been such situa-
ton in the history of the country. It
is not like the old elections, when we
had time to examine the constituencies
and see what they we're doing and then
decide whether to moderate or mitigate
our tactics. Now all goes on the one
stroke. We wake up early one morning
to find a peaceful country suddenly
plunged into a series Of commissions, the
outcome of which nobody can dare
foresee. -"
These things do not happen in the
United States. They do not permit
such a situation as this to exist. They
insure under their political system that
the certainty of the existence of a
strong Government shall be safeguarded
In our constitution there is nothing to
protect us In this way"
