NANUFACTURERS O HEAR ADBRESSES Lavial Industrial Gombinations 'ilIED_lsc_lssd [ The anti-trust laws and lawtul | i combinations in industry from & been invited to bring thelr legal °% ball on Church street last night presat day viewpoint will be dis- | cusesd by Gilbert H. Montague of New York city at the annual meet- ing of the Manufacturers' Associa- tion of Connecticut, which will hc‘ held at the plant of Cheney Broth- ers, South Manchester, on Wednes- day, November 7. Ruinous competition, of a sort that seriously threatens the contim- ued prosperity of the country gem- erally, is invited by the excess pro- ductien capacity of industry in the United States today, many indus- trial leaders believe. In the search | for a solution which will preserve | the industrial fabric of the country | from what is considered a very live | threat, more serious attention is be- | ing given lately to the possibility of imtelligent cooperation between competitively destructive enter- | prises, and in some cases combines | of them. Mr. Montague is expected, | in speaking before the manufac- | turers, to touch on the degree to | which this effort is possible under | Present statutory restrictions, and | 2is0 to point out the dissimilarity between the American attitude to- wards business combines and that embodied in continental and Brit- ish jurisprudence. | Mr. Montague, who graduated | from Harvard law school in 1304, | has been actively and intimately associated with developments under | the anti-trust laws and other regu- | latory legislation since the early | days of his legal career. and is re- garded as one of the foremost au- thorities in the country on this | phase of business law. He was a | special examiner in the prosecution of the American-Asiatic Steamship company under the Sherman act in | 1913, and he has acted as counsel in numerous anti-trust and federal trade commission cases, industrial | eombinations, and unfair competi- | tion cases. He has also served as | counsel for several large Industrial | koncerns in resale price maintenance | cases and he is now engaged in a number of pending anti-trust and | federal trade commission investiga- tions and proceedings. Among them | 1s the action recently brought by the | United States against the Franco- German potash combination, in which he is chief counsel for the | French government and all the | French defendants. [ Montague is the author of | Me. seteral books cm beminess combdina- tions snd related economic and le- gal subjects. At the present time ke ¥ 3 member of the advisery committee on anti-trust laws of the natienal industrial cenferemce board and also of the New Yerk city bar association’s committes on the anti- trust laws and on the amendment of the law. Mr. Montague's address will be given before the industrial relations group conference at the ennual meeting, and the association office announces that manufacterees have counsel. RETURNS INDICATE GREAT LABOR GAIN IN BRITAIN Reports Show They Were Made Mostly at the Expense of the Conservatives. London, Nov. 2 (M—Great labor gains in municipal elections throughout England were indicated in returns tabulated today. London chose an entirely new municipsl council and other cities selected one- third of the membership of their councils. Some politicians hailed the labor victories as forcasting a trend to- ward that party in the general elec- tions next year. . The labor successes were partic- larly numerous in the previncial boroughs, an incomplete tabulation giving the laborites a gain of 101 seats. Returns from London were slow but showed a net labor gain of 33. Partial returns indicated that the labor gains were made mostly at the expense of the comservatives At Tickenham, the parliamentary coa- stituency of Sir William Joynson- Hicks, home secretary, laborites gained three seats from the conser- vatives and for the first time ob- tained reprasentation on the Twick- enham council. At Liverpool labor candidates gained 11 seafd, in Stoke-on-Trent seven, and in Derby five.

McDonough, candidate for state senater, Fire Commission- er James H. Pssserinl and several others, many of them registered re- publicans, it was said. Luca DiMinno, a republican, was chairman of the meeting. Mr. Di- Minne, after being introduced by Commissioner Passerini, enthusias- tieally praised the democratic ticket and wrged the italians of New Brit- ain to vote for Governor Smith and to work for his election. Before the set program of speeches was reach- |ed, several of those present were 'r:lled upon for remarks and demo- cratic enthusiasm ran high. Says Italians Are Insulted Commissioner Passerini touched on the immigration law, pointing out that it discriminates against races which have given New Britain, some of its leading citizens. He ex- pressed strong resentment at what| he termed insults directed against| the Italians by republican con- | trolled newspapers. Public Works Commissioner Harry | Battistoni replied to the tariff argu-| ment by saying that most of the| periods of hard times in the United States have come under republican administration. Former Fire Com- missioner Caliendo dealt with the! 18th amendment, saying that Con- necticut has never been a ‘“dry” state and he criticized the practice | of having one state legislate for another. Don Louis Fallettl, rtpu!fli(‘lllI member of the city plan commission, urged suport for Governor Smith.| He protested against bigotry and re- minded his audience of the consti- tutional guarantee given all reli- gious sects, a guarantee which, he said, is being violated by some ot Smith's opponents. Refers to Pallotti Shelving Contrasting the action of the re- publican party in refusing Francis A. Pallotti its nomination for lieu- [tenant governor and that of the democratic party in nominating At- torney Edward A. Mascolo of Wa- terbury for congress, Salvatore Goz- z0, president of the Canicattinesl society declared Italians should not hesitate to align themselves with the party which recognizes them, and this, he said is the democratic party. Attorney McDonough hit at big- otry, saying that none of the sol- diers who served in the war were asked their religion. He praised the democratic party, pointing to its work in exposing scandals at Wash- ington, and criticlzed Governor Trumbull on the water rights bill, pledging himselt to work for restor- ation of these rights to the people if he is elected. Paonessa Raps Opposition Mayor Paonessa thanked the Ital. jans for the part they played in his election in the spring.

Robiuson today checked off the last state but one of his coast to coast campaign when he entered Ohio for apesches in Lima and Day- ton. The democratic vice presiden- tial nominee closed his campaign in Indiana last night in Fort Wayne. The senator shared the viewa of & number of democratic leaders who traveled with him during the In- diana tour that the state should b: placed in the doubtful column. The party workers told him that Frank C. Dailey was making a strong race as democratic nominea for governor on a platform calling for a house cleaning of state politics, and that his strength might have seme effect on the democratic national ticket. Laughter met the senator's refer- ence to Herbert Hoover's proposal for an extra seasion of congreas and cheers were given whea he termed the propesms! of Sanater Curtis for an interstate marketiag erganisation as “another one of the premises that republican leaders, saiped with panic are making to hold the farmers' vote." declarcd. “but what Senator Curti or Mr. Hoover hap some new sug gestions to help the farmer and no one has been practicable. But befor many days have gone they will kno: what the farmer thinks of promisc they have broken during the las’ eight years.” WARN AGAINST LESSENING FRENCH CLAIMS FRON WAR German Payments Must Coincide With Paymests France Makes $o United States. Paris, Nov. 3 P—Warning against diminution eof the Freach war claims against Germany 18 sounded in an open letter from Senator Hen- ry Berenger to Premier Poincare. Senator Berengér was one of the negotiators of the Mellen-Berenger agreement on the French war debt to the United States. German annuities, he wrote, must coincide with amounts and duration with payments that France has una. dertaken to make to the United States. The letter added: “The Femch government must take into account 63 annual pay- ments which it must make to the United States; Great Britain, too, must receive like «fmounts from Germany over a similar period.” The position of Premier Poincare, a8 defined in twa recent speeches, o senate was flayed for his opposition |m & state institutions bill grounded, it was claimed, on the fact that foreigners whom he classed as “un- desirables” would be the fnmatea. “Yet,” the mayor said, “the repub. that France must obtain from Ger- many money sufficient to meet war claims against France as well as to compensate France from war devas- tation.
