LABOR DENOUNCES
Continued from first page)

(C0ntlnued from first page)
There will be hell to pay throughout
the United States in the event of a
general wage reduction | am not
sure that Assistant Secretary Klein
has been correctly quoted, but it is
my honest, sincere opinion, arrived at
after deliberate and calm considera-
ton, that whether this prediction of
Assistant Secretary Klein may or may
not come true, the fact is that it
ought to be logical outcome of the
wage-cutting policies pursued by the
highly protected employing corpora
tions Of the nation"
Pay Cuts Dangerous
Matthew Woll, vice president of the
American Federation of Labor, went
SO far as to see serious conflicts
growing out of the wage reduction.
He held it "inconceivable" that the
blow should be taken quietly.
81 can only express great regret
and profound disappointment at the
action of the United States Steel Cor
poration," Mr.. Woll said. "The dis
appointment is particularly justified
because this action is in sharp contra
diction with that of the same corpora
ton some time ago in reducing divi-
dends but declining to cut wage
scales. At that time the attitude of
the United States Steel Corporation
was received with satisfaction by all
who believed that the maintenance of
wage levels was essential to business
recovery and that any dislocation of
wage schedules would be a most dis
turbing factor, economically and So
cially.
"All | can say is that the action of
the United States Steel Corporation
will certainly not be helpful, regard
less of the causes that may have
prompted it. fear that this action
may well encourage others to do like
wise and prove the result of even
more serious perturbations than we
have yet witnessed in the nations
economic life. A general policy Of
wage cuts holds out the danger of
serious industrial conflicts, for it is
inconceivable that the workers will
take this blow without resistance"

EXPERT SAYS
 ANIMALS WISER
 IN LOVE AFFAIRS
French Scientist Declares
 Civilization Set Up False Values

Paris. (UP)-Animals are wiser in matters of love and sex than mankind, it was stated by pr Pierre Barbier, noted French sci- enlist, in an address before the In- ternational Psycho Therapeutic Congress.
 According to Dr Barbier, civili- zation has made the mistake of setting up false values with regard to the physical emotions. He de- clared that many criminal perver- sions are the result of the suppress sion of natural instincts and de- sires. Modesty and fidelity, he characterized as artificial vfrtures, interfering with the completeness of life.
 "Man originally was the same as an animal" he said. But later he broke away from the animal rhythm of life. The result is that he has complicated existence with a matter that should be as simple IS it is normal and necessary.
 Animals have no conception of chastity, modesty, or infidelity. Neither have they any sensation of voluptuousness. Man has created this with the evolution of a moral and mental attitude towards sex. The result, as we see it to-day in crimes makes it very difficult to pronounce upon morality"

Atty. Traurig New
 Bankruptcy Referee
His Appointment 'Not Far Away" According to Those
 in tIie Know

Attorney Max R. Traurig, well known young barrister, was report ed to-day as having the inside track among the other candidates for the office of referee in bankruptcy, made vacant by the death of Car teton B. Hoadley last week. Those backing Attorney Herman J. Weis- man, Attorney James M. Lynch and Attorney Edward Mascol0 and other lawyers prominently mention ed for the post are still strong for their respective candidates.
 Attorney Traurig, however, was said to be gaining strength daily and an announcement concerning his appointment to the refereeship, was not far away. Attorney Traurig is now practicing with his beother, Attorney Edward Traurig under the firm name of Traurig & Traurig. They have been operating as a firm since the dissolution of the the firm of Meyer, Hincks & Trau- riff, over a year ago, when Judge Carroll c. Hincks received the ap- pointment to the federal bench. Judge Theodore V. Meyer formed the other member of the firm.
 It is understood that the present district which includes New Ha- ven and Litchfield counties will be split so that two referees may be appointed, one taking only the city of New Haven and the nearby towns and the other assuming the rest of New Haven county. north of Derby and all of Lftchfield codn- ty, with headquarters at Water bury.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-11-21

New York, Nov 21-Financiai conditions during the past week have continued under the control of the same general forces that have been operative since the open ing of the current month. There has been an unsettled movement of prices following upon the varying announcements, some encouraging and others temporarily depressing such as the reduction or posing of dividends by railroads whose secur- ities have long been considered prime investments. The Interstate Commerce commission is in a po- sition to help railroad matters very materially if they will. In the meanwhile the rank and file of in- vestors are still sitting on the fence awaiting some definitely construct i've developments as guide to their decisions.
 Notwithstanding the markets rather unsatisfactory performance this week there is no disposition to view the situation with undue pes- simism. The most definite response of the trading public to items of doubtful significance has been seen in the disposition to retire from op- erations or to curtaiil their scope pending additional information.
 From a market standpoint the most important thing to be consid- cred is the position of the railroads. As stated above, many of the im- portant systems are urgently in need of larger revenues to provide for their overhead charges, to say nothing of a continuance of divi- dends. If the Interstate Commerce commission should meet the wishes of the railroad executives as to the manner in which the earnings from increased freight rates, already granted, shall be handled, that would Help the situation materially as 1t would take a number of roads out of the doubtful class and pre- vent further liquidation of their se- curities by scared holders. Follow ing this, should railroad employees consent to a reduction in wages, that would be step further in re- storing confidence and would un-
