City Hall ON THE FIRST BOUND In winning the 100 yard dash yes- terday at St. Mary’'s field, Robert Pep- law became the recognized city cham- iplon in this event. The entries in the event were all good men and run- ners of ability and in winning over | the crack athletes of the city, “Pep” 'won for himself a title which he is ready to defend at any time. The following communiation was received from the fnanagement of the 'Vikings A. C. baseball club: “Owing to the Plainville club calling off the ball | game with the Vikings late Sagurday night and because it was such a short | notice, the Vikings management was unable to secure another game suita- blé for the local club. A large crowd | was expected at it was practically the only big game scheduled for the day.” No reason was given for the non- appearance of the Plainville nine in this city and there was a large crowd on hand to witness the contest. It was a big disappointment as the contest lwould be worth watching. The local Swedish Lutheran team is out to cop the championship of the Luther League. They have only to win one more game and the pie is theirs. They defeated Forestville in Forest- ville Saturday and boosted their stock considerably. Meriden is a close sec- ond to the local team. Charley Miller's charges the Pirates have been playing stellar ball this season. Their success is due in a great measure to the efforts of Charley with the youngsters. He has had them out for practice on every available oc- casion and is molding a bali team that might give the fans something to talk about in the future. All hopes of having a big A. A, U. meet here on Labor Dgy have been digpelled by the announcement of Su- pervisor John O'Brien of St. Mary's Playground that the undertaking would invelve too much expense. It seems that if such a meet would be brought to this city, there would be enough people attending to make the thing worth while. The athietes in the local post office had an easy time of it winning over | their opponents at St. Mary's field yes- terday. The names of Clifford Faulk- ner and Carl Brink shine out as the all around men of the meet. The lo- cals were almost handed racé as no other team showed up to compete against them. Bridgeport was allowed a recruit team for this event, and the local team easily won. The rain of Saturday morning made the track heavy and the running slow. The management at the field worked hard getting the field into shape, but the weather man put the damper on :WITH CLERKIN, the relay | Dundee, attempts to shatter records. Those in attendance at the track meet in Berlin Saturday greeted the appearance of Policeman Feeney of this city in running togs as a big joke. The local “‘cop” proved to be the out- standing feature of the day and flash- ed some speed on the track. “ The locat Schuetzen Verein is en- tered in the 53rd annual shooting tournament of the Southern New Eng- land Rifle ASociation which is to be held in Meriden at the park range, September 2, 3 and 4.

The Kaceys have the odds in the bet- ting up to this rate without money being placed by the followers of the Corbin team. World's bantamweight champion, Joe Lynch, is prepared to contest any of his rivals, Eddie Mead, his ager, announced today. Lynch would like to get a crack at Eugene Crique, French featherweight champion, when the latter arrives here. According to Manager Mead, Crique absolutely re- fused to meet Lynch in the Inter-Al- lied boxing tournament held at Al- bert Hall, England, two years ago. Lynch returned from Saratoga Springs the other day and expects to resurne training tomorrow. Andy Chaney, regarded as the most logical contender for the feather- weight title, has decided to through a campaign, which he hopes, will lead him to a titular match'with Champion Johnny Kilbane.

In addition, more than 200 friends and acquaintances of Phipps searched the beaches and the | woods along the sound, hoping that| he might have been able fo swim to | shore and was lying there exhausted, But no trace was found of the body. Young Phipps, who served for two years in France as an aviator with the American army, and who was grad- | uated from Yale in 1921, left Oyster Bay Saturday afternoon to go to East Hampton in his beat, a craft about 35 feet long with a five foot beam.

Nevertheless, he stopped the engine, got out the oars and rowed back to where he had seen Phipps.

What, then, is the real issue of the strike? In a statement issyed in Washington Monday, August 14th, Mr. L., E. Sheppard, President of the Order of Railway Conductors, said in part, as quoted in press dispatches: “The real issue is the status of the menon strike. We hold that they are not dismissed from the service; that they have not resigned by striking and all their rights as employes are only suspsnded, so to speuk, contingent on whether they go back into the service. This applies to the right to strike, under the law, to pensiond provided by their employers as well as to seniority. That is the real issue.” * * Railroad et al ca LN It is submitted that the ground taken by the strikers is justified neither in moralsor law, that it would bc vicious in practice and contrary to the public interest, The strikers do not deny the jurisdiction of the Labor Board asnd the Board itself at the time of the threatened strike last fall, deciared on October 29, 1921, in a formal decision (No. 299) in the Ann Arbor ““The Board further points out for the consideratidn of the employes interested that wnen sach action does result in a strike the organization so acting has forfeited its rights and the rights of its members in and to the provisions and benefits of all contracts theretofore existing, and the ¢emplovas so strikiag have voluntarily removed themselves from the classes entitled to appeal to this Suard for relief and protection.” * = * It follows from this that on July 1st of this year no carrier legally had any shop-craft employes except those that remained in its service. As new men were taken on and accorded, under the resolution of the Lanor Board of July 3rd, the benefits of ‘‘the outstanding wage and rule decision of the Board,’’ they weie entitled to have their names entered in the order of their employment immediately under the names of the loyai employes who remained at work. The striking employes, under the terms of the Board’s decision, ceased to be railroad employes, and thss is the position which they themselves took in denying the Board’s jurisdiction. The general law in such cases is well stated in ‘“Martin on Labor Unions”, in the following terms: *‘When employes strike the relation of master and servant is terminated absolutely—as much so as it -could be by any act of the employer. The employer cannot thereafter be.compelled to employ any of them, by any law, or by any order of court, or under any conditions. Whatever difference of opinion there may be as to the propriety of other men taking the places of thos: on strikes, yet under the law this right is clear and undisputed and there never was a decision to the contrary.” * * k3 The moral aspects of the case could not be better stated than in the following words of the New York Herald : ““There is one thing that the American public never could be convinced the railroad executives have the right or the freedom to do. Thi ordered to walk out by the strike s to throw out either the old men that did not desart their posts when caders or the new men that came to take the place of the strikers. *“The railroad executives are not free to make this sacrifice of their men, old or new, now en the job. “They are bound morally. bound in a degree that should bs of even stronger binding force than a legal contract, not to throw out these | ce men.”’ If strikes may be entered into with impunity and without risk or Joss by the strikers; ifthere is to be no reward for loyal service, it will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to induce any employes to re- main at work, or to hire new men, in case of future strikes. It would, in fact, put a premium upon striking and a penalty upon loyalty. The real issue is not the status of the men on strike, but whether industrial dis- putes shall be settled by force, by threats of force, or by orderly process. THE EASTERN RAILROADS
