IDRIVERS' STRIKE
 ! HOLDUP TRUCKS
Six Local Conn. Co. Em- pIOyes Join in Fight
 for Wages

No change in the strike situation between the Connecticut Go. and 50 truck drivers and helpers who walked out yesterday was seen to- day. John J. Murphy, of Hartford, freight agent for the company, told The Democrat this afternoon that both sides were holding firm.
 Six Waterbury drivers and help CTS are reported to have joined the strike. Employees demand higher wages, claiming that they are the lowest-paid truck drivers in the state. The drivers and helpers are seeking a contfactual agreement, signed by both sides.
 Four trucks of the waterbury di- vision were understood to be tied up today by the strike. Loaded with freight, but with perishable goods removed, the vehicles stood idle at the Freight street garage of the com pany last night and this morning.
 Drivers and helpers have walked out in Hartford, New Haven and Bridgeport, as well in this city. The employees have already appealed to R. J. Bennett, of New Haven, general manager and vice president of the Connecticut Go.
 Spokesmen for the workers said they receive 40 cents an hour, and that the workers are demanding a substantial increase.

FRIDAY, JUNE u. 1886


Gold is where you find it, but the
union label is where it is put by union
workers.
On a coat it is on the inside pocket.
On a hat it is under the sweatband.
On printed matter it is on every piece.
on cigars it is on the box. On cigar
cites it is on every package.
And on the principal union brands
Of cigarettes, such as Raleighs, Wings,
Kools, Twenty Grand and Spuds, there
also are the labels Of the Typograph-
zeal Union and the Photo -Engravcrs.
While the Big Four continue to
grind out fabulous profits from their
highly touted brands, regarding
workers as merely a part Of plant
equipment, the union brands use the
union label as a guarantee Of union
wages, union hours and recognition Of
collective bargaining.
Collective bargaining is the basis
Of all fair labor relations.
Il is the tap root and the founda-
tion Of sound industrial structure.
1t is the thing most hated by profit
hungry, despotic employers, such as
