Edwards Statue
Substitute Bill Passed

The senate today passed the sub stitute for the Culhane bill cutting the Bucks Hill road in the trunk line system. Originally Senator Gull hane's bill was passed by the senate, but when it got to the house was recommitted to committee because of merely authorizing the State Highway commissioner to proceed with construction of the Waterbury Bristol route it Instructed" him to built it. The house baked at this wording, so the substitute bill was raised in committee and was passed in the senate today.

Charters Amended

The Senate today passed a bill amending the charter of the Water town Trust Company allowing the bank to increase its board of direc- tors from five to seven.

 Murray received reports of the strikes at Pittsburgh headquarters, but he said the S. W. O. 0. would make no statements until after the Youngstown conference, which was called when executives of the Inland Steel Corporation announced in Chicago that they would not sign a contract.
 Other s. W. o. c. leaders, claim ing a membership of 85 per cent of Inland's 13,5O0 employees, said that strike against the corporation seemed inevitable" Mass meetings of workers will be held tonight.

 The workers committee moved against the major independents af- ter winning, 1,773 to 721, a national labor relations broad election to determine the sole collective bar gaining agent for 2,603 workers of the Sharon Steel Corporation. Work kers voted at the Sharon, Pa. and Lowellville, O., plants of the cor1- pany.
 Right to Bargain
 Earlier, Murray and Horace Edgar Lewis, chairman of the board of the Jones & Laughlin Steel Corpor- ation, signed contract giving the committee the right to bargain ex- clusively for 27,000 workers. Seven teen thousand J. & L. employees vot- ed for the committee in a govern ment-supervised election last week.
 Murray charged that other inde- pendent producers had entered into "an upholy alliance" and had agreed not to sign s. w. o. c. con- tracts. .t
 "They have definitely determined to thwart the intent and purpose of the National Labor Relations Act, regardless of the consequences which may result to the corporation" he said.
 The republic corporation, third largest steel producer, employs ap- proximately 52,000 workers in plants throughout the country. It is the nations largest producer of alloy and special steels, and the automobile industry is its greatest single customer.

Judgeship for Devlin

The long-awaited judgeShip reS- olutions are expected to pour into the Legislature tomorrow. Today Governor Wilbur L. Cross sent into the Senate the nomination of Sena- tor Raymond J. Devlin of New Ha- ven to be judge of the court of com- mon pleas of New Haven. Senator Devlin is at present a city court judge in New Haven and has served on that bench for the last four years. If confirmed and it was be- lieved that his nomination would not be opposed he would succeed Judge Robert E. Munger who ad- vances to the superior court bench on July 1. Senator Devlin's appoint ment is for four years and begins on July 16.
 The only other candidate for the common pleas court bench was Att torney John J. FitzGerald of New Haven, a son of National Commit teeman David E. FitzGerald, who refused to comment on the Devlin appointment today. It is believed that Attorney FitzGerald may be given the New Haven city court ap- pointment. Today's nomination indicates that the deadlock on judgeships is brok- en and that democratic members of the Senate and republican mem- bers of the House have come to al, agreement or decided upon a slate of court appointments for the next two years.

Liquor Laws

Liquor Laws
 The senate today on motion of Senator E. Gaynor Brennan, repub- lican, of Stamford, voted to adhere to its previous action of the state liquor laws. Some time ago the sen- ate passed an amended liquor act providing for stand-up drinking in certain establishments, as well as making a few other minor changes in the laws now in force. When the bill reached the house this body pro- ceeded to make its own changes in the senate amended act, thus forcing the bill to go back to the senate again. Today, however, the senate voted not to rescind its first action on the liquor laws and Senator Ray mond J. Devlin, majority leader, was named committee of conference to wait on a similar committee from the house to iron out difficulties so that liquor law may be put through two weeks from today.

The bill was passed with Senator Culhane's voice the only one raised against 1t on the voice-vote.
 Senator Culhane stated that he opposed passage because it would penalize the working man. He said he was not upholding or opposing chain and cut-rate stores, but he claimed that if the fair-trade act went through it would work a hard ship on the public in purchasing standard brands.
 Senator Robert E. Claffey of Hart ford pointed out in defense of the bill that thirty-nine states have al- ready enacted a fair-trade act.
 Senator Julius Stremlau of Meri- den also spoke in behalf of the bill and said it was aimed at "unethical practices.

American Missionaries L, 7ientsin Making Charges

of British, French Italian or other soldiers.
 AS the threat of trouble became more acute, all Americans were ad- vised to enter one of the foreign concessions. Those Americans who had residences outside the foreign area complained that they were given no advance notice of danger and that the 18th Infantry made no effort to rescue anybody. This morning, one group of missionaries trapped in the Chinese area tele- proned the consulate that bombs were dropping all around and asking that an army escort be provided.
 The consulate telephoned the army and later telephoned the missionaries: Sorry. but you'd bet- ter stay where you are until the fighting Is over" Some fear was felt for Miss Martha George, a mission ary stationed at xaugliuching, 70 miles east of the city. She was in a danger zone and there was no news of her.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-07-29

Tientsin, July 29-(UP)-Ameri- cans, fearing a night of terror, com- plained angrily tonight that Ameri- can army authorities refused to aid them. One group of missionaries called Chinese police. who provided them with an armed escort which escorted them to the sandbagged, barbed wired Italian concession. From the concession, the Americans telephoned the consulate and the 18th Infantry headquarters.
 After long consultation, one con- sular officer went to the Italian concession and took the missionaries to the British and French conces- sions. The missionaries indicated that appeals to the army to aid them were vain. A consular agent went to the Chinese city, where many Americans were trapped. to see II he could free any. The 18th In- fantry, however, took no part in the rcsuce work except to ofier refuge in their barracks Go, Americans whc H~d rn shelter under the protection
