TROLLEY co. WINS
 COURT DECISION
Waterburian Sued for
 Damages in Recent Col. IisiOn on MiIldale Rd

Judgment for the Connecticut Go. is found in decision handed down by Judge Edward J. Finn In common pleas court today in the civil action brought against the trolley company by Anthony Rice of this city. The court finds that the collision between Rice's truck and trolley on the Cheshire-Mili- dale road opposite the reformatory last Jan. 24, was an accident.
 Rice sought damages of $3.000 in his suit, claiming personal injury and damage to his truck. He charged he was pulling away from the tracks where his truck was forced by deep snow banks when the trolley approached and struck his machine.
 Judge Finn says the collision oc- cured without fault of either party: that the motorman had nc opportunity to avoid hitting the truck; that Rice is not to be blamed because his truck skidded anc swerved and that the condition caused by a snow-storm was the cause of the collision.
 He says, This was a true acci- dent within the Robinson defini- ton, An unforeseen fortuitous cir cumstance or event, due to no one't fault, causing damage.
 Attorney M. H. Wefsman repre- scented the plaintiff. Attorney W, A Mulvihill of New Haven appeared for the defendant.

LABOR FORCES IN EFFORT TO FIRE
 COMMUNISTS
American Federation Has Begun Session-Fed-
 eral Laws EspOused
BY II. Q. THOPSON Limited Press Staff COrrespOndent)

tUnlteu ffcSS SLaU COrTeSpOHueHt)'
 Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. 7-U. PA demand for expulsion of communists and united action to strengthen labor's gains was set forth to-day as the American Fed eration of Labor met here for it's 55th anlial convention. More than 800 delegates assembled in the au- ditorium of the Chelsea Hotel to hear President William Green sound the keynote for a gathering expect cd to prove one of the most signif1- cant in the history of organized la Dor.
 Internal. Unrest
 Facing internal unrest, labor lead CTS struggled to maintain united front to solidify increased strength, estimated at million members, gained during the past year. The in- ternational situation also command ed attention, with the federation ready to follow Grcene's leadership and go on record Tor strict Amer ican neutrality in case of European war. The sharp attack on commun- ism came in the report of the ex- ecutive council, which demanded that all persons of communistic ten- dencies be expelled fortnight from the federation. The council also urged a new membership drive In a request that all central labor unions initiate, not later than December 1. national recruiting campaign.
 The council espoused federal laws expected to help labor, such as the Wagner labor relations act, and re- quested that any invalidated laws affecting labor be replaced by new, court-proof guarantees.
 The council reported that the fed eration's average paid up member ship had jumped from 2,803,011 in 1884 to 3,045,34 in 1e35. Federation officials said this increase in the av- craze meant an actual increase in membership by more than 100000, which would bring the federation's total members to more than 5,00O,- GOO, not all of whom have paid dues for a sufficient period to be included in the average total.
