Employes Walk Out at Bristol Brass Plant Today. (Special to The Herald.) Bristol, July 3.—A number of men employed in the old mill of the Bris- tol Brass plant left their places this morning in sympathetic strike. The exact number on strike is not known and one of the officials of the plant stated that the number will not be ascertained until Monday morning. It is understood that the strike was the result of dissatisfaction over a new working schedule which goes into effect on Monday whereby the men work 55 hours a week on an eight- hour day schedule with time and a half pay for overtime. This schedule is being adopted by other plants throughout the state including the Machine company in New Britain. The dissatisfaction on the part of the workmen is over the new schedule which they are reported to want re- main the same as is in effect with a larger increase in the present pay. ) PALMER TELLS WHEN DEMOBILIZATION COMES | Washington, July 3.—Demobiliza- | tlon, Attorney General Palmer said, will be completed when the army is reduced to a peace basis, not necessar- ily the basis existing before the war, but authorized by congress for the fu- ture.

BY ORDER OF COURT, Parents Wield Paddles While Stam- ford Judge Approves This Soirt of Punishment. Stamford, July 3.—The youngst: of Stamford are as full of mischief a New York was of booze last Monday night, and Judge Samuel Young of the Stamfard city court has become all fed up with their tricks. So when eight boys were arraigned before him yvesterday charged with trespassing on the property of the New Haven rail- road he decided to try new methods of punishment. He first imposed a fine, then suspended it and turned court attendant. “Officer,” he said, ou go out and get me a paddle—a nice, hard board that will sting.” The court attendant hurried out. The boys looked very uncomfortable and as if they would like to know what was going to hap- Pretty soon the policeman re- turned with the paddle, and Judge Young looked at it and said it was good. Then he turned to the parents of the boys and said: “Each of vou take this paddle in turn and give vour boy a sound spanking. Wallop them till they pram- ise to be good.” The judge turned police headquar- ters over to the parents for the spank- ing carnival, and each parent led his youngster in in turn and spanked him, while the others waited in dread out- side for their time to come. From the lusty vells that echoed through the building it was evident that the sen- tence of the court was carried out vigorously.

For the 30 days the total was 2,114,863 gross tons, or 70,495 tons a day, against 2,108,056 tons in May or 68,002 tons a day. Seventeen furnaces blew in and 12 blew out last month, a gain of five, and estimated capacity active on July 1 was 71,700 tons a day for 200 fur- naces, compared with 68,600 tons a day for 195 furnaces on June 1. The gain in output last month was the first check to steady decline in the daily average from the high point reached in September, 1918, at 113,942 tons. From 372 furnaces in blas September 1, last year, shrinkage was 177 in nine months to 195 on June 1. The gain of 2,500 tons a day in production last month over the average in May is likely to be carried further in July. Pittsburgh producers estimate that new orders sent to the mills for roll- ing in June and June specifications against contracts were 50 per cent. heavier than in May, while in and tubular products they were nearly double.
