the anthracite coal miners by the
National Miners Union, calling a
N. NJ. U. tri-district conference on
May 49,
The N. NJ. U. points out that a
fake tri-district convention is being
held April 80 by the U. NJ. W.,
whose officials at first thought
they could sell the anthracite min
ers into new slave contract with
out any convention. The contract
expires August 81.
Fear of the rank and file forced
the Lewis Boylan Hartneady Nc
Andrew clique in the U. M. w. to
pretend to hold another convention,
which, with the rank and file stifled,
will make fake decisions in their
name.
Conditions Bad
Wages have been reduced in the
anthracite, few miners are paid for
dead work, very few get a full
weeks work, loading machines are
throwing thousands out, unemploy-
ment grows by leaps and bounds.
When the miners go on strike,
the U. M. w. rushes in and forces
them back in the name Of the agree
ment, the grievances are sent TO the
cancellation board" the graveyard
where it is buried.

At present the Normal school has no equipment to provide commercial training and many of you obtain your commercial teachers from outside the state. Some superintendents also recruit teachers from business colleges but this is not proper source of supply for the public schools"
 Must Rake Requirements
 After outlining in detail one of the ways in which the four year Normal school course may be brought about, Dr. Myers said, Supervisors will never be a satisfactory substitute for good teachers. Our requirements for elementary teachers must be raised and the present standards for teach CTS of sub-normal children must also be elevated. In the future teachers in this particular line of work wll have to have Normal school training summer school work with emphasis on the sub-normal child problem"
 The educator also told the superin- tendents that there is not enough independent expression on the part of the superintendents of the state as to what they want in the line of teacher requirements.

FREE SPEECH ORDINANCE
 RULED UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Two Communists Freed By Water bury Judge on Charge of Violat-
 ing City Regulation

Waterbury, April 23 tT - Two communists arrested at the gates of a factory here yesterday and charg ed with violating a city ordinance relating to free speech were dis charged in city court today by Judge John r. McGrath when he sustained a demurrer which held the ordinance to be unconstitutional.
 The demurrer was based on de- cision of the state supreme court of errors in the case of the state ys. McAllister Coleman in 1921.
 This case went up to the supreme court from Meriden police court which tried and found Coleman guilty of violating a city ordinance exactly parallel with that Of the city of Waterbury.
 The accused were Charles C. R. Crasnitski of this city and Nat Rich ards of 3S Howe street, New Haven. both of whom are working in the interests of the Trade Union Unity league, an organization of unskilled laborcrs.

Complaint on Cheshire Case Not
 Yet in His Hands

Plainville. April 23 (UP) - Gov ernor John H. Trumbull said at his office here today that he had not received a letter reported to have been sent to him by Edgar White, former official of the Cheshire re- formatory. who seeks an investiga- tion of conditions in the institution.
 Until I sec the letter I wish to make no comment said the govcr- nor. "All l know about the matter is what I read in this mornings s newspapers
 White, former head of the reform- atory's school, said he had written 10 the governor requesting an investi- gation of conditions underlying the recent dismissal of Deputy Superin- tendcnt Thomas Kane and the activi- ties of other officials, including Su- perintendent George C. Erskine.
 Whites request for an invcstiga- ton was laid before Charles A. Tcm- pleton when the Waterbury man was governor, Templcton said in Water bury last night.
 Evidence was produced that in my opinion should have made it ab- solutely necessary to remove the deputy then" he said, and that warranted a searching investigation into the entire management of the institution from the superintendent down. However I had no vote on the board and could do nothing. The board dismissed the charges"

 After Q tilt with Robinson during which Blaine accused him of dis courteous conduct" the reference was ordered deleted from the rec ord with Robinson's approval. The letters to Stone were dated April and 9, 1929.
 The one to Sanford was dated March 30. 1920.
 The letter of April to Stone said in part:
 Tt is indeed unfortunate that so many men in public life, especially those who have served for years and years in congress in executive posi- tions, and on the bench, become for all practical purposes out of touch with the busy workaday world. NIX
 Tn order to give you, perhaps. a new slant as to how some men are thinking and talking, a few days ago in the course of my conversa-
  ton with an exceptionally keen young attorney, I ventured to re- mark that there were very many serious and far reaching constitu- tional questions relating to the eigh- teenth amendment and enforcement measures that had never been sub nlitted to the supreme court.
 His comment took the form of question do you have any idea that the supreme court as now const- tuted would have the moral courage to so into this question thor oughly
 The other letter to Stone said in part:
 Tt seems 10 me that it was inten- tional to provide two methods for amending the constitution, one q rather easy one when the purpose is merely to clarify it's evident mean ing, correct minor defects or better provide for the proper functionins of the government within defined

limits; the other providing for con- ventions involving much controversy, extending over a considerable length of time in case fundamental changes are proposed, such as the surrender of individual rights, state rights, or prospective changes in tho form of government.
 The letter to Sanford assailed the Jones law as providing excessive fines and cruel punishments."

 If I am even partially correct in such surmise or suspicion, then law makers and law administrators have both forgotten the primary use of language, and also that the purpose the real excuse of constitution is to set up some barrier against the persistent encroachmcnt on tyran- n.y.

 Another step toward improving our teachers" he continued, will be a more careful selection of the candidates for admission to the school. In the past We had to take what we could get but now we are becoming over-supplied and are in. position to select winch students we want. This gives us a great advan- tage at the very outset.
