They are to be rein- stated in their former positions, start- ing next Monday. History of Case. It will be remembered that the dis- charge was brought about through the clerks regarding Columbus Day as a recognized railroad holiday contrary to the opinion of the local freight agent, J. E. Leitch. An agreement between the officials of the road and the representatives of theBrotherhood of Railroad clerks as to the holiday, was drawn up some yvears ago. It stated that only those clerks who were absolutely necessary to conduct the business of the office on that day would be required to work. Mr. Leitch claimed that he had given verbal or- ders for all the clerks to work, but the clerks said that they had not re- ceived any orders to that effect. Superintendent Gives Decisfon. A conference.-between all parties concerned and Superintendent Snavin of the Waterbury division was called for last Saturday and arguments from all sides were heard. Mr. *Snavin thought that the matter was one for the office of Gen. Manager Fardo of New Haven to decide, so he did not give a decision, but turned the case over to him. General Superintendent Foster was delegated to take the mat- ter up and he arranged for a meot- ing with Mr. Grimes, the representa- tive of the Brotherhood of Railroad Clerks, in New Haven. He heard the case from both sides, and decided that the whole affair was the result of a misunderstanding as to the orders that were given concerning Columbus Day. He upheld the contention of the clerks that the agreement concerning the holiday still holds good, but at the same time, he thought that the local freight agent was the one to decide whether he thought it necessary for all the clerks to work or not. In view of the facts of the case, he thought that the clerks should be reinstated in their former positions and the mat- ter forgotten. Situation Clarified. The nine clerks who are to report to work on Monday are: Miss Margaret Kilduff, William Generous, James Keli- her, James Skene, John O'Leary,.S. J. Lynch Malcolm Paparian A. W. Nelson, Randolph Whaples. They con- sider the decision a very fair one and quite agree that the matter as far as thoy are concerned wil! be forgot- ten. Mr. Leitch, it is said, is satisfled with the decision and is willing to re- sume relations wth e clerks as they were before the unpleasant situation was created. The clérks will report to work at the usual time Monday morning, and will resume their duties at their respective stations. NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1921 IRISH CONFERENCE AND LLOYD GEORGE Will Report Monday After Dis-/Possible Rupture of Parleys Featured by London Papers London, Oct. 22.—Possible rupture of the Irish conference, a general po- litical crisis in England and the can- cellation of Premier Lloyd George's visit to Washington were featured by London newspapers this morning. Telegram to Pope. It appears that the telegram sent to Pope Benedict by Eamon De Val- era in which there was adverse criti- cism of King George’'s recent message to the Pontiff, was considered a phase of the situation which jeopardized continuance of the negotiations for peace in Ireland. Editors on Message. Editorials on Mr. De Valera's mes- sage varied from hot denunciation to sorrowful regret. The Daily News, one of Mr. De Val- era’'s warmest supporters, said: “This mischievous proclamation is a characteristic example of the activi- ties of the evil genius who appears virtually to preside over Irish affairs.’” At Sinn Fein Headquarters. / The point was made at Sinn Fein headquarters this afternoon that Mr. De Valera had said nothing in his tele- gram to the Pope that he did not say in his correspondence with Premier Lloyd George while the latter was at Invernces, If it was wrong of the republican leader to reassert this principle at the present juncture it was regarded, it was equally wrong of King George's advices to present their own view in the king's telegram to the pontift. Belfast Reports. Belfast, Oct. 22.— (By Associated Press)—In an editorial today the Irish Independent ,nationalist organ, says that Premier Lloyd George desires to leave England for Washington early in November irrespective of whether there is or is not a settlement agree- ment reached in the Irish conference. “The idea of the British premier if, as seems likely, no settlement has been arrived at by the time he must leave to attend the conference on arma- ments” the newspaper continues “is that he should administer doses of soothing syrup to the Jrish plenipo- tentiaries in order to securc that the Downing street conference, with noth- ing settled, should simply mark time until his return in five or six weeks. “The Irish D’snlwtentiarl*fll in- sist that before the premier rts for America the vital issue at stake must be settled or the impossibility of a settlement finally demonstrated.. This would mean that if there were no Irish peace, the premier would not go to America. “The premier is irritated hecause the plenipotentiaries will not subordinate the intcrests of their country to his convenience.- Hence the suggestion from his camp of the possible wreck- | the tele- ing of,the conferepce up the Pope. gram 6f Mr. De Valera t: TREASURY ENRICHED LIOUOR AGENTS LOOK UP TESTIMONY Federal Authorities Show In- terest in Recent Greenberg Case Federal prohibition agents are in- terested it is thought is the case ot Kune Greenbérg who was in court some time ago on a liquor violation charge and was discharged later. Mc. Greenberg is the father of Prosecuting Attorney A. A. Greenberg. A personal investigation in the rum ring activities in this city was made yesterday by State’s Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn and Superintendent Hurley, of the state police. It was not stated that their visit to New Britain yesterday had any connection with the investiga- tion into the record of the elder Greenberg, but no denial is made of the fact that their trip here had some- thing to do with the general investi- gation in the many sided case, Wwhich developed following the myster- fous death of Louis Winkle. Looking Up Records While representatives of the state police have not shown any noticable interest in that particular phase of the case, & man from the office of Prohi- bitlon Director Harry 'BE. Mackenzie went to the office ot Court Clerk Emil J. Danberg yesterday afternoon and asked to see the testimony in the case of Kune Greenberg. He looked it over, but did not make any further com- ment. The fact that Director Macken- zle has offered his services to the state police to clean up the whole bus- iness and that two departments are co-operating, is considered significant. Not Satisfled Greonberg was arrested some time ago 6n a charge of violating = the liquor law and was brought into court on an order from Deputy Judge B. . Alling, after a man said to be bartendeg in a place on Hartford aven- ue, had been convicted and fined. When put to trial Greenberg was not proven guilty, it being stated that the state had failed to prove its case against him. CITY ITEMS Miss Rita Cooney, Freida Stanquist, Harry Mullen, N. C.
