BERLIN ROAD Rk Wi Begin on East Bertin Road Next Week—Rally in East Rerlin mms—r{m, Notes of Interest to Looml Residents. first demeocratic rally of the oson was hpld In the Town hall last night. At least threefourths of those present were women. The meet- ing was called to order at 8:25 ©'olock by Miss Adele Murray In & short introductary speech Miss Murray stated that up to two weeks ago there were only 32 registered pnocrats in Berlin and today there over 300. It is the hope of the mmittes that when the finals are there' will be at least 500 r B Assafls Sen. Brandegee. Miss Caroline Ruuts-Rees was the speaker and dealt largely on cord of Senator Brandegee and @ League of Nations. In a few she stated the fact that the lleans have not got as many ef. nt women in their,party as the rats have. She d they are -1 the women's hope on the elec- #on ©f Miss Fannie Welsh, of Green- wich, who is a calldidate for state socretary on the democratic ticket Polfies has been & dirty game, but Witk the vote and help of the women especially such women as Miss h, politics are sure to have a housecleaning. % In hér own words, “The Connecti- Woman Suffrage association has n and still is conducting € cam- S Palgn against the re-election of Sen- Brandegee. We are not doing be spiteful or for revenge will Jot bygones be bygones, but Took back at his record you Yeadily mee that he is not the man to represent the women s state. ¢ democratic congressman, Au- @ Lonergan, is a converted suf- @ voter. He held them in high and even though he did try tiem he finally vielded to demand and voted ‘yes' Adegee has hurt the feelings women. He has an attitude | ote “ contempt In the light he woman ecitizenship question he #h attitude of complete contempt plainly showed it. He says that amen are spoiled and flattered and ted too well. He even went so &8 1o say he could mee no moral In the voting of women. 1 refer the time when many women were t1 in the war times by mak- o8 urging enlistments, etc Brandegee . was asked e ¥ | Stevens has had several of this sort ‘work the doing he = Tt them pick lint gnd net let ,:lqun around" . for e L3 e - A . “Take his attitude on children of which evéry woman, whether a mother or-not has a great deal of feel- ing. Men have not by nature this feel- ing and it is only natural that they should think of business and voting first. But there, arb some capable of seeifng the importance of women and there are some not capable. Brandegee should be classed with the latter. It is easy to see that Brandegee cannot be made to see the importance of chil- dren as he woted against the child Iabor bill. He said he voted against it because he considered it unconsti- tutional and was right as it was after- ward proven tobe 50 by a 5 to 4 vote in the supreme court of the U. 8. In summarizing my statements of Bran- degee I should say that he thought more of the rights of the country than for the lives of the children “In closing I will say that I think the U. 8. should enter the league of nations as it now stands and not as the republicans want it. It is a sure thing if the democrats get in that we will have a league of nations, but if the republicans get in perhaps we will and perhaps we won't. Let me urge all the women present and let them urge all other women in the town to cast thelr vote for Cox and Rooseevelt, and the entire democratic ticket.” Adele Murray Talks. Berlin's own speaker was next on the program. Miss Murray referred to the troublesome times and said “I am a half worker for the democratic party, as I work for them half of my time and teach school the other half. I cannot see how any woman can vote a straight ticket iIf their con- sclence does not guide them so. Com- ing to the town meeting the other night I happened to hear a remark passed about myself. I was accused of being a ‘rabid democrat.’ I will admit that T am a staunch supporter of that party, but if you will remember I helped eroll all women whether they were republicans or democrats and I furnished machines to carry all Kensington women to the town hall to be made voters. “I wouldn’t class Brandegee as a republican, in fact I wouldn't know where to class him as a man. One hundred and eighty-seven representa- tives voted for the child labor bill and two against it He was o of the two. I always have condemned him as a man as he does not represent the people, but only himself. He is not a good senator or a man. Think of his past congresional record and jhea think of the faet that he republican party is urging the women of the state to put him back in office. I hope they scratch so deep that it will be felt for 50 years to.come. If you do not want to vote for Lonergan do not vote for Brandegee but give it to the can- didate of either the farmer labor party or the soclalists “In closing let me give a few words of praise to John Molumphy. our nominee as representative to the Hartford assembly. He has served faithfully on the school committee and has always been present at all im- portant town meetings. If you are a strong democrat boost Molumphy and the town of Berlin.” Work on East Berlin Road. Word was received this morning by E. W. Mildrum from Claude Stev. ens that work would begin on the East riin road next week. Mr. interviews with the state highway commission- ers and through his efforts the re- pairing of this road is possible. A petition was also made up by several of the townspeople to be for- warded to Commissioner Bennett in Hartford for the lmprovement of this road. Thig coupled with the work of Mr.. Stgwens has been suc- B8 R R ER BB cessful and before many more weeks traffic will once more glide over this road with ease. Rally Tonight. There will be a rally for both dem- ocrats and . republicans at Athletic hall in East Berlin tonight. Miss Adele Murray will be one of the speak- ers as well as Mrs. Louis Rose from Martford. The committee in charge ha# had much difficulty in securing speakers for this evening but an ef- fort is being made, to have Mrs. Hiram Maxim as the other demo- cratic speaker. She is running for state senator on the democratic ticket and the state. Invited to New London. By invitation of Lucretia Shaw Chapter, D. A.

Harriett Barnes of Broad street highly indignant at thg treatment she ys she received at the hands of one of the local women who, some time ago, visited the homes of all women and secured their names for the voting list. As it was, put in an appearance n hall to be qualified for the voters’ oath and was told that her name “was not on the list. In- sisting that she gave it to the woman who called at her home a few days previous, the registration lists were scoured over a number of times with- out success. Her name was missing Mrs. Barnes said that she believes her name was left out intentionally as she refused to divulge her party choice and the one she intended to vote for.
