It behooves us to so arrange our policies as to ap- peal to our womenfolks. Their appreciation is of vital importance to our work and any organization of this sort.
 "One of the many important services this club is capable of rendering to the French people is to help them in taking out their naturalization papers. Both politi- cal clubs have been awareof this need and have done their utmost to help, but people hesitate in ask ing these organizations for assist ance because they feel that 1t ob- ligatcs them to vote for the clubs respective party upon becoming voters and 1t greatly retards prog ress in that direction.

RULING GIVEN ON
 PAYROLL RECORDS

Connecticut laws now require that employers of women or minor workers keep A record of the wages received and the hours worked by such employees, State Labor Com missioner Joseph M. Tone an- nounced to-day.
 Commissioner Tone issued this statement to advise. Connecticut employers of this fact, because it has been found that large mum |. ber of firms. in many cases due to their ignorance of the law, do not keep adequate payroll records. In a study of beauty shops which was recently conducted by the Labor Department, it was discovered tha:, of the 230 shops throughout the state which were included in tho survey, 94 per cent kept no record of hours of work, and 48 per cent kept no record of wages For this reason. MT Tone expressed the hope that beauty parlor man. agers will take especial note of this law.

Jobs Through Relief Agencies Opposed
Accuracy Of Figures
 Challenged By Harris
Statements of State Relief Commissions Publication
 Fail to Include Waterbury's Mutual Aid Figures

The accuracy of figures showing an increase of more than : per cent in tho number of persons or, relief in the cities of the state for November, reported in the first issue of Connecticut Social Trends, publication of the State Emergency Relief commission. was questioned to-day by William M. Harris. local relief director.
 Waterbury statistics are incorrect because of the failure of the city to include the Mutual Aid relief list in making reports to the state headquarters, according to MT Harris. The total number of per- sons on relief in this city was giv- en as 5.93S, but this figure in- cludes only EZRA and city welfare department rolls.
 MT Harris said he was also doubtful of the reliability of the figures given for Hartford and New Haven.
 Tt does not seem logical that city like Hartford, center of the insurance business. has suffered more during the depression than Bridgeport where the population is almost wholly dependent upon the manufacturing industries" he said.
 Persons on relief in Hartford totalled 22,369: in New Haven, 23,- 454: and in Bridgeport 19,040, ac- cording to the state bulletin.
 Other Discrepancies
 As an example of the discrep- ancies brought out 'n statistics compiled by the state as against those of city relief directors, Mir Harris cited the recent meeting of social workers and milk produ- cers in New Haven, where, he sasid. figures given by the city

 Presidents Message
 In his annual message to the members President Thibault ex- pressed his appreciation of the CO., operation received from the mem- bcrs and complimented them on their successful efforts to be of service to the French people and maintain good financial condition of the club. MT Thibault's mes sage follows, in part:
 "In view of the progressive cam paign which this organization IS about to launch we invite. and are anxious to hear, suggestions and comments regarding this instltu- ton; not only from the active members but from all people of French extraction who are inter- ested in the welfare of their race and of the community.
 ITO my mind, this club is not merely the property of the active members; rather, 1t belongs to the entire French population of the city, inasmuch as 1t is a surpris- ingly accurate barometer of our peoples prestige In the community. Whether our people realize 1t or not, ever since it's organization this club has reflected their standing most accurately. The clubs we'll being Huctuated proportionately with that of the people 1t repr.- scnts, and vice versa. It's continu- ance and progress Is imperative to our people. The service it has ren- dered in the past simply justifies anyone's faith in its ability to be of further help in our struggle to share in the good things this world has to offer. The comparatively sound financial condition of this or gn nniZation Is strong indication that the French people can sup port a club of their own. and on an even more elaborate scale. J would recommend that member ship fees be readjusted in order that those of modest circumstances as well as the more fortunate ones may be accommodated. Our rooms afford an opportunity for the French people 10 meet and dis cuss their problems and to com mune with people of mutual un- derstanding. We recognize our re- sponsibllity to our people and must strive to maintain our indemnity us a group contributing to the ad- vancement of this commonwealth.
 'In dealing with our own people we must not lose sight of the fact that we are extremely critical of one another; we always expect more of our own than we do of
