News of the World By Associated Press ESTABLISHED 1870 HGHT OF TRIAL BY JURY LPHELD Railroad Strikers of 1922 Win Decision in Supreme Court CHARGED WITH CONTEMPT nother Case, Court Holds Arn- stein Need Not Testify When Own In «ase is Jeopardized—Scveral Oth- cr Decislons Handed Down Today, Washington, Oct. 20.—Railroall employes who joined the shopmen's strike of 1922 were entitled to jury trial when charged with contempt of court, it was held today by the supreme court, That part of the Clayton act which provided that employes may demand a trial by jury was declared by the court to be constitutiorfal and valid. The relationship of employer and employes does not cease, the court held, when a workman goes on strike and the provisions of the Clayton act for protection of the employe therefore apply under such circumstances. The question had been brought be- fore the court by Sam Michaelson and others, who had been employed by the Chicago, St. Paul & Omaha Rallway company and who claimed that under the Clayton act they were entitled to a trial by jury. Earlier Court Ruling. The federal district court for west- ern Wisconsin held and the seventh circult court of appeals declared that part of the Clayton act which pro- vided for trial by jury constitutional and found that the men had lost their standing as employes of the raflroad when and therefore were not within the provisions of the Clay'on act, which applied only to emuloyes. During the strike the federal dis- trict court for western Wisconsin is- sued a temporary injunction restriet- ing picketing upon the Chicago, St. Paul and Omaha railway to one representative of the strikers at cach point of ingress and egress. Shortly thercafter the railroad com- plained that the terms of the injunc- tion were not belng observed by the strilers and sought to have them punished for contempt. Michaelson and his associates were brought inte court, were denied jury trial, and sentenced for contempt. Another ease of a workman ar- rested for contempt in conuection with a strike, was disposed of by the conrt, 8. C. Sandefur was congicted of contempt in a federal district court in Kentueky on the charge that he had violated its order with respect to the use and threats of violence in connection with a strike against the od Creck Coal company. He de- manded a trial by jury but it was refused him. % The sixth cirenit court of appeals psked instructions of the supreme court as to whetlier the Claytos act providing for jury trials in contempt imposed a valid restriction 1pon the fnherent judicial poweg ®f federal conrts to punish for- con tempt. That question the supreme conurt today answered in the af- firmative. cases Arnstein Wins, Reviewing at the request of the government its decision in the Nicky Arnstein case, the supreme court re- affirmed its previous judgments and reiterated that a bankrupt not be compelled in court to answer questions which in his judgment tended to incriminate him In its decision the court had held taht Arnstein had not been required to answer certain questions asked by the government, In re-opening the case the govern- ment asserted that unless the cislon was modified, every bankrupt could concen assets and defraud his creditors. National Biscuit Casc. The federal trade commission | was denied a supreme court review of its case against the National Bis- cuit company, charging the grant- ing of illegal discounts. The tederal courts decided against commission.

I"oof traffic would be guldeg by the laws for motor vehicles, keeping to the right and moving at the corner policeman’s order.

The action of President Ebert in dismissing the Reichstag and thereby paving the way for a general elec- tion, is generally believed to have resulted from the fallure of Chan- cellor Marx to carry out his plan to extend the basis of the present gov- ernment by the inclusion in the cab- inet of representatives of partles further to the right and to the left than those already represented. It was Chancellor Marx's plan to include in the cabinet all factions save only the extremists of both wings. To this end he held party caucuses all of last week and it was expected these negotiations sould continue until the eve of the con- vention of parliament, echeduled for Wednesday. Messages from Barlin indlecated that the nationalists were ready to enter the cabinet with the under- standing that they would be allowed | four posta, The chancellor, however, faced the opposition of the demo- crats, which was sald to be keeping allve the opposition of the chancel- lor'’s own party to a union with the Von Hegt party.

MAYOR' PREDICTS NEED OF NEW DAM Favors Construction of New Wall at Shuttle Meadow ‘WOULD SELECT NEW SITE Lack of Sufficient Water Pressure in Northwest Section Threatening Situation—Pumpers Needed on North Burritt Street, Replacement of the dam at Shut- tle Meadow lake with another wall | at least 20 feet higher than | the present dam is an installment of the city’s water service development pro- gram that must eventually be faced by the city of New Britain, Mayor A. M. Paonessa told Fire Chief Wil- llam J. Noble this morning during a discussion of the city's fire fighting problems? The mayor, the fire chief and other city officials believe a new and higher dam would make possible greater water pressure in all parts of the city, as well as increase the volume of water, allowing the use of more lines of hose in serious fires. For many years there has been talk in official circles of raising the present dam. Ingineers have made surveys and have reported thelr find- ings to the water board. Shuttle Meadow is a natural basin almost surrounded with high walls of, trap rock. The floor of the enclosed val- ley is almost flat and the present res- ervoir is formed by a relatively low dam. Engineer Allan Hazen, consultant for the water board found that the dam nilght be ralsed 50 feet to make an increase to 6,000 gallons while a later increase to 80 feet would in- crease the storage capacity to 10,000 gallons, The present dam is between masses of trap rock, and borings disclose red sandstone rock about 50 feet be- low the present floor of the valley. There appears to be some clay and an abundance of sand which might make dam building difficult. Mayor Paonessa belleves the pres- ent dam site might well be aban- doned for one further morth, Low Water Pressure a Menace In some parts of the city, notably the northwestern section, there is a serious problem raised by the low water pressure. On North Burritt street a pressure of 12 to 14 pounds is the maximum and a pumper is re- quired whenever there is a fire to be fought, On Broad street the pres- sure runs to 65 pounds, sufffclently great to combat the ordinary fire. This district is made up for the most part of three, six and eight and 12 family houses, two being erccted on one lot in some instances. The or- dinary problems of fighting a fire are encountered together with the proximity of houses and tha low pressure, giving rise to a serious problem, | The southern section of the city | has very good pressure, running as | high as 110 pougds on Sand Bank hill, the lower seftion of South Main street, In the eastern section of the town the pressure s fair, The loecal fire department is called [to fires in the-town of Rerlin and finds that pressure i3 _considerably greater than in New Britain.

Cunningham, who per- tormed the operation, said it had been entirely successful and that “he could not wish Se r\'!'rw Lodge to be in a better condition.” Rumors that the senator contem- plated retiring before the expiration | of his term on account of his health were denied last week by Henry Ca- bot Lorge, Jr., his grandson. It wa¥ said at the time that Senator Lodge was in improved health and that the second operation prescribed by his | physiclans was of a minor character. Miss McAloon to Become | Bride of H. G.

Sheriffs and deputies repre- senting the eight countles of the state were expected at the capitol at 2 o'clock to receive the speclal elec- tion writs to be served on the 169 towns in the state. Immediately after signing the writ, the governor issued the follow- ing statement: “An emergency exists through the |dcath of Senator Brandegee, The |state and nation have lost a faithful jservant at a time when his patriot- ‘lsm courage and clear thinking were most needsd. His place must be filled and quickly. The constitu- tion requires ms to call a special election to fill the senatorship va- cancy. It is the attorney general's opinion that the general assembly has not given the governor any power to appoint in the meantime, Since the resulting governmental gap ought not to be allowed to con- tinue and since the constitution con- templates prompt action it is my duty to lssue an immediate call be- fore congress convenes December 1, The law requires three weeks be- tween nomination and the election.

SHOULD ENTER LEAGUE Thinks America Should Be Included With Great Z Powers Washington, Oct. 20.—Democratic national headguarters here has re- ceived the following statement by John W. Davis, the party's presiden- tial nominee, replying to a direct question whether he favors entrance of the United States into the League of Nations: “In my speech of acceptance open- ing the democratic campaign, I ex- pressed my attitude on this ques- tion with complete frankness. I said speaking in the sheerest terms of na- tional interest, it was not wise, or prudent or eafe that 54 nations of the world should gjt together in con- ference on world affairs and Ameri- ca be absent. I said while this na- tion could not join the League of Nations helpfully unless and untill the common judgment of the Amer- ican people supported such a step the day will come in my judgment when we should see that both inter- est antl duty dictated the step. ‘T'do not believe the Leagne of Nations is perfect, T do not believe that it has assumed its final form, I believe in life and growth and cus- tom and habit. I am not concerned even about the terms on which we shall appear at the council table of the world.
