Berlin News COWLES CHAMPIONS VILLAGE CARRIERS Kensington Postmaster Urges End to Digcrimination SPEAKS AT CONVENTION Town :'looded By Heavy Rain This Morfting — Keasington Bowling League — Washington's Birthday Quietly Observed—Items, Postmaster 8. M. Cowles of Ken- sington spoke at the Connecticut Vostmasters’ convention in Wate bury yesterday and urged the asso- | ciation to request the postmaster general to place all letter carriers under the classification of city car- riers, and of abolishing the classi- fication of village carrier. He pre- sented a draft of resolution relative 1o the village carrier before the con- vention. It read as follows: *Whereas the term village carrier now applies te a limited number of men in the postal service, and “Whereas these men must com- ply with all the regulations affect- ing city carriers, with the exception of the eight-in-ten hour law, which does not apply to the village carriers, and “Whereas the routes covered by the village carriers are fn the most respects camparable with those of the city carriers, and in many cases require many more miles of travel per day than the city carrier, now therefore be it “Resolved, by the Connecticut Postmasters’ association, in conven- tion assembled, that the postmaster general be requested to give con- sideration to the matter of placing all letter carriers under the classi- fication of wity carriers. and abolish- ing the classification of village car- rler.” Mr. Cowles' speech in part is as follows: “T am in faver of this resolution ‘hecause I have alwavs tried to stand for the man who was down. There are 10 or 12 village carriers in Con necticut, about 850 to 900 in the country, and their salary on the average is $500 less than the city carrier, who does practically the same work un a good deal more happy conditions. This, T claim, s an unfatr discrimination. There are not enough village carriers to make a request for larger salaries. ““There are not enough carriers to request better conditions to have any effect with the post office depart- ment and anything that is done Tiust be done by the postmaster. | “There are three important points | te make. First, the sitnation of the | village carrier is not a square deal ffrom the point of view of the de [partment even, in that .the depart- jment could expect and would get hetter service from a better paid, Jand therefore, hetter satistied body ¢ employes. ‘The department hrough the postmnaster must break n a new man frequgntly because of he dissatisfaction, thereby curtail- ng the service very materially. ‘The second point is that i is not L square deal from the point of view bf tho postmasters and of e immedi tely affected. One office that 1T now of has had four men on the begister within two years. One re- igned, two refused absolutely to ork when needed and needed bad- becauge they had a better job of course they had a better job if hey had any) and the fourth man ho is a splendid man for the job, is | | .00 $375 A $19. in his town of a good deal less re- liability than he, are earning from $30 to $50 a week. “The last thing to remember is that it is certainly not a squarc deal from the standpoint of the carriers themselves. Carriers work from seven to ninc hours a day, travel 12 to 15 miles in villages swhere in many cases the sidewalks are con- spicuous by their absence and de- livers from 50 to 100 pounds of mail. If he works overtime he gets no pay for it and does it all for $500 I than his cousin, the city carrier. Is that a fair proposition?" In closing his address Mr. Cowles told the convention that while he Was sure most of those present were not interested in the village carrie they would be quick to sec the un- fairness of the situation and would do their bit through the assoclation to help these men who are doing a good piece of work for Uncle Sam, and getting mighty small remunera- tion for it. 3 The resolution as taken up late yesterday afternoon at the conven- tion and was passed without a dis- senting vote by the postmasters. .Water Floods Town Heavy rain, starting late last eve- | ning and continuing this morning, flooded the town and hampered traffic. The water rosc nearly two feet under the railroad underpass and made it impossible for cars to pass under. Buses were forced to detour through the back roads and were running from 2 30 minutes behind schedule, Th roads were mired with mud and snow and made traveling dangerous. An early morning mail truck made an at- tempt to drive under the bridge so s not to be delayed in getting the mail to the post office but met with grief when the water wet the spark plugs and made them useless. The car stalled about half way un- der the bridge and it was necessary to tow it out. The water rose stead- ily during the morning and very few cars attempted to go under the un- derpass. The drainage system at the bridge was practically useless No trouble was experienced at the new bridge being constructed on Farmington avenue. The water gen- erally rises rapidly at this point but evidently it was blocked off and dammedl by mud and water at some other point hecause the brook rose very little Rensington Bowling League The Kensington Bowling league will roll off the seventh wee games of Its achednle at the Roge bowling allevs in New Britain to- morrow evening Missionary Socicties Unite The W.
