John Spargo, once prominent
socialist in Englund, assailed
the administration in an adj
dress at Philadelphia on the
suggestion made of government
owned power plants throughout
the country and declared this a
great menace to economic re-

DANBURY STRIKE
 IS NOT SETTLED
Factories Opened To-day But Men Refused to
 GO to Work

Danbury, Conn, July 17--(UP)
 More than 1000 hat-fur workers refused to enter as the doors of four factories swung open today for the first time in two months. A fifth factory, which opened yes terday, was practically closed again. Hundreds surged the streets near the factories as policemen from every state barracks stood ready to quell violence.
 All places were picketed by strikers. Hopes that the factories would be operating today faded last night when nearly 1000 strik- CTS voted to stand pat. Alleged discrimination against former em- ployes of the Danbury-B Bethel Fur company, which opened yesterday, was given as the reason for the vote. It was claimed that only 50 out of 200 to 300 workes were re- hired and several outsiders were taken on in violation of an agree- ment.
 Union leaders said the agreement called for rehiing all former em- ployes first and that there should be no shifting of workers from their regular jobs to other posts. In addition to the Danbury- Bethel Fur company, the other factories involved are: Modern Fur Co, Felting Fur Co, Mat Fur Co and Gebert Fur Co.

No Money Involved
 In Steamship [ Dispute
Thackara Makes Statement at IntercoastaI Confer
 enCe-Many Back Union Strike Handler

New York, July 17-(UP)- There. is practically no money in- volvcd in the dispute between the longshoremen and steamship lines which resulted in the present San Francisco general strike, now cost ing the state of California millions of dollars, according to Robert c. Thackara of the intercoastal con- ference.
 'It's the principle of the thing" said Thackara, who presides over a pool of 12 lines operating be- tween Atlantic and Pacific ports
 The companies have always main tained the right to employ whom they want to employ.
 You understand that this fight is not over wages. But if the lines let the union organize the 4,000 longshoremen and rotate the work --send anybody they please--they, might send fellows who are not worth five cents an hour. As it is now, each company with ships docking at San Francisco has eith- CT q salaricd steyedore to supervise loading and unloading of its ships or contract with a stevedoring firm
 The boss stevedore has fore- man on each JOD-WAat ne calls hatch boss. The hatch bossgoes to the hiring halls where the men. spend their off time and selects his workers"
 And is the hatch boss always fair to union?" he was asked.
 "Of course" Thackara replied, "He always hires the best men be- cause he is responsible for finish ing the job in the shortest time possible"
 Well, how much might the com panies lose in a year if the unions sent them less efficient men?"
 That is hard to say"
 DO you think it would compare in any degree with the cost of mob- ilizing the militia, paralyZing the industry of city like San Fran cisco and biockading 100000 per- sons?"
 T don't suppose so." said Thack- ara, "but it's the principle of the thing

Naugatuck, July 17-William Bitetsky "a popular resident of Bethany, today is a very Sad man. This morning his Bethany home was badly damaged by fire, but that wasn't all as $400 in cash and $500 in checks were burned.
 Estimates of the total loss were given as s7,000. The fire played havoc with the Bitetsky domicilie but the fine work of the. Nauga- tuck fire department saved an ad- joining home and two barns. The borough fire laddies were first to respond to the blaze and were battling the flames for twenty solid minutes before the departm ents of Woodbridge and Seymour appeared on the scene.
 The origin of the blaze was be- lieved to have started in the chimney. although the exact cause is not officially known at this writ ing. The flames had a good start before any of the smoke eaters" made their appearances. The three companies worked for a long time before the blaze was. finally extin- guished.

 Cheered fully five minutes on her first entrance, the 62-year- actress shunned the spotlight as best she could, giving Marie Adels as Viola the featured play that her leading part merited.
 The revival was enthusiastically received in its quaint sixteenth century mode of presentation. This called for arrival Of Will Shakes peare" and his struggling troupe with their cart, and their unpack- ing props and curtain which were set up while an amused audience looked on.
 About 800 persons, many of them prominent summer colonlsts from Ogunauit and other resorts, had gathered when the theater doors were opened few minutes before play time. There was a rush for seats.
 It was said there was a good chance that Miss Adams would bring Twelfth Night" to New York after it's tour of small New England and southern communi- ties.. The run here will be for a week, but thereafter 1t will be one night and two-night stands.
