Carpenters’ hall was taxed to its|Now Is the time that organized labor seating capacity Monday night when Jullus C, Stremleau, president of the Connecticut T'ederation of Labor, and Ira M. Ornburn, state onganizer, gave appealing addresses on the nced of electing representatives from the labor ranks this fall. President ‘William J. Fitzgerald of the Central Labor unjor presided and in introducing the spea ers outlined the purpose of the mc ing and the immediate need of labu: leglslation, President Stremleau said in part: It is with great pleasure that I learn that the working people of Norwich are considering the advisability of nominating men who would be fair, and square, and try to secure legis- lation in the state assembly for the benefit of the working people, All of you realize that sometimes it is true, our peoplo have not had the desire to hold office In the legislature, owing to the expense, although the state alloWws a certain sum and for that reason our working men have net wanted a seat in the assembly, They know and real- ize that thelr famlilles would have to g0_without certaln necessary luxurles. But today the workers realize that some sacrifice must be made in the fu- ture, Those of you who have fol- lowed legislative actlon must surely realize that legislation is for the inter- est of a certain few. The reason for this can be laid to financial conditions. We claim that the time nas come when we should make some sacrifice and I am glad Norwich has called this meet- ing for this cause. As you all per- haps know, I was In the assembly In 1015, Tt is true we had friends In both the senate and the assembly who helped us, but neverthesess we had to urge those few., At the last sesslon we were less fortunate as we had only one man to get out and work for us. Tho result was we gained little, The Compensation Law. Tn the 1918 sesslon we were succ ful in the passage of the compe! tion law that has meant so much te us, We, the workers, clalm the victory and that was chiefly due to our friends in the 1913 assembly, That compensa- tion law was one we struggled for for vears ana finally it became a reality in the state of Connecticut, It was step towards the right direction and was due to our friends. My friends, T m golng to outline a few of the bills nd then you will pes the necessity of clecting men. First of all, I want to warn you that if you do not send men streng eneugh to stand, the chances are they will fall by the way- side. Your president has stated one bill In particular, 1 No, 1296, That ww 1s goinz to remain on the statute books until the working man sees it is removed or amended. I watched and organized the silver workers’ strike in Meriden and saw men and women forced to a strike, They wers loyal to thelr cause and the company felt itself slipping and@ as soon as they saw the chance of loss they flled an injunction on men doing picket du In the court proceedings bill No., 1 was referred to and a temporary injunction was granted. If these steps were not taken the men would have been at work., Now what is true in Merlden is true in other citl The Right to Quit Work. constitution of the us the right time because United to quit a need It is the heat The States glve job at an of better working true if some one should of passion call a man a scab because he s doing strike breaking work, he might tie up not only his home and money but also the same circumstances of other me: s of this particular reanization and that Is an injustice, ruse one individual breaks the law. The compensation law enacted in 1913 1s far from the one we wanted. In 1915 we pleaded for an amendment. The injustice of the waiting period aft. or disability is clearly plain, We elaim that the employer of a corporation is handicapped, ~His family should not ffor. It was so unjust that the last nssembly reduced it to 10 days. We ~mpted to wipe out the 10 days. We »elleve compensation should start from of the conditions, in the day of injury. We also hope to secure a larger compensation of 66 2-3 per cent., instead of tne present 56 per cent. Many of the states have 66 per cent. whil others have 75 per cent. friends, sce we have got to make special effort. Occupational Diseases. During 1913 we discussed the bill at one time whether the law would in- clude occupational diseases. We be- lieve the families should not be left paupers. We are goirg to try to amend the law regarding occupational eases and establish a state fund. Sometimes labor is charged with be- ing narrow, but I belleve we are broad mirded, In the matter of prison re- forms we would bring about a change. Today a man In prison is compelled to work for a contractor. We believe our prisons end jalls should be of a re- formatory nature and try to cure the prisoner of hie weakness, The con- tractors put the indlvidual to work without regard to occupation. One of the reasons we claim the contractor has the advantaga of the employe and outside emplover is becaust of com- petition, In our prison at Wethers- fleld they work on shirts, What gocd does that do? A big robust man do- ing woman’s work! It is also harmful to ones outslde the prison, What chance have women to compefe ngainst such labor? It s true we have met with opposition, but our point of view is a broad one, Shorter Working Hours. Another one of our features Is to shorten the working hours of women and children, Most of our trades call for eight hours a day, We firmly be- lteve it is time for us to get legisla- ton for the woman and children of this state, It has been tried jn many Industries, the eight hour law, and it has proven a success. Wa look upon our girls, slaving, and see them the mothers of the future generation and if we want to have a strong future generation we must act! Another is of manufacturers adver- tising for help, not stipulating the fact that there ls a strike, We have seen too often manufacturing advertising in papers a great distance from the base, for help. Men go there not knowing there is a strike on.- It is an injustice to the men to be misled. Don’t Want Outside Guards. We believe also there should be en- acted another law prohibiting the bringing of outside guards into the state. We belleve that the city and atate officials can handle situations and protect property. If they canmnot let the governor of the state act and not bring in thugs as guards who would just as soon shoot or not. The Building Tradesman. Then again take the building trades- man. The scaffolds upon which he works should be inspected. We have also bills to protect the baker, barber and others. We are legislating for the humanity of the state. Send men who F e S S S e should sit up and take notice. Our aim of such meetiugs as tonight is not only to organize workers ‘but to inform the public at large and we hepe to hold meetings like this in every town. We hope to arrange a big mass meeting here and bring speakers who . have studled the sltuation and can define ‘he best legislation for the benefit of he working peop! 1 belleve we houla forget our political party and elect men whom you can trust. Men who will. vote for your interests and the common people. Organizer Ornburn Speaks. Tn part, Organizer urnpurn said: It is pleasing to me to see that the labor- ing people of Norwich have taken this step In calling ‘together a meeting of this kind, In speaking of law N 1296, Organizer Ornburn said there is no man who can tell where this law stops, It”has been stretched. The speaker told cf a strike situa- tlon in New Haven where a strike- breaker had been brought in from Worcester, One day on passing an international representative on the street the representative in a quiet manner asked why he was working as a strikebreaker, and advised him to seek better working conditions. The man did not answer, but complained to the poiice authorities, who had the rep- resentative arrested, In the court pro- ceedings the judge Instructed the jury that the representative had intimidated the man, although proceedings proved different, The jury returned after a 15-minute session with the verdict gullty, ‘These cases have happencd many time Ttemember, these are the kind of judges you are electing to In- terpret your laws, The manufacturers of this state have built a wall around the state of Connecticut with that one sectlon, No, 1296, About the Ansonla Strike. In the city of Ansonia 550 men were on a strike, We found befors the strike 60 per cent. of the men earn- ing 15 cents an nour, and they had families with from one, ‘two and three children to support, They were com- pelled to take their children when old enough inte the factory te work, When this particular company found out that ed labor had sent f represent- ative there, just 24 hours before, war- rants for the arrest of 18 leaders who speak English clearly were sworn out Two of the leaders were mentenced to three months and flned $50 and the others wera also preeented befora the court, Armed guards flocked about the plant and one Polish girl was stopped and a guard near by started trouble which resulted in the guard opening fire into a crowd of innocent peeople, killing one nnd injuring several, We condemn men for such conditiens, but we, the workers, are responsible for the conditions, Take the instance of the way the manufacturers' assecla- tlon got around the occupational dis- case In the compensation act, There is no attorney in this ceuntry who can be depended upue 8S » man with a card, They pay no attention to labor men. Still we have thousands of labor men in this state, We go o the pulls and vote the democratic ticket, the republican ticket, because our father votes that way, We have got to put our shouider to the wheel and forge tour party and send to Hart- ford a man who carrles a card, and those people who go there in time will raise the salary, The present administration in Wash- ington mclected as n member of his cabinet the sccretary of the miners, and he carrfed a rard, He does much to advance the cause. It was through his suggestion that the industrial rela- tions committee s put Into effect. This commiztee brought rellef to min- ers in Virginla. All of those things would have gone unnoticed if the man -inlxlng in the cabinet did not have a card. Men Fair to Labor, In this state we have men seeking office who have been fair to labor and appeal to you to know where the peo- ple stand. Taik over the ition and get a man you know, one you can rely on. There has been more accom- plished in our cause during the past three and a half years than in the ten years previous. We nad the use of stop watches done away with in the arsenals. There are other things too numerous {o mention. The passage of the eight hour law has been condemn- ed. Those who are condemning the law are politicians but they have not Zone on record as voting against it. The large manufacturers do not want n the assembly or national assembly men who will assist the working peo- ple. Remember this, when the manu- urers decided to organize, in very many cases 100 per cent. of them at- tended their mectings, and that i3 the important part. We, I dare say at least a number of us, are not as consistent as we might be. Each one of you when vou make a purchase purchase with a union label. Non-consistency is a great fault, 1 am positive, 1f labor would awaken to the sltuation, we would not have to walk in the rut as we are at tho pres- ent time in the state of Cennecticut Now, in concluding, my earnest request is to get together and send into the assembly a man with a union card and be sure that he can meet tho manu- facturers' assoclation face to face and let them know what Jabor organizaticn means in Connecticut. As there has been left open a vacan- cy on tho deinocratic ticket. for a labor man, Willlam J. Fitzgerald, president of the Central Tabor union, was en- dorsed as the nominee from the labor organization. Remarks were made by several labor men Just before the meeting closed.

Name Street ...eee City State FIRE DEMONSTRATION FOR BENEFIT OF CHILDREN Chief Stanton Co-Operates in the Fire Prevention Movement. In order to give the school children of the city an idea of what fire pre- vention means and of the great cost !of maintaining fire departments, Chief Howard L. Stanton gave o demonstra- tion run of the local companies by pulling in an alarm from box 33 Mon- day morning. Monday was Fire Pre- vention Day for the United States and Canada, The bex was pulled- at 5:30 just the time when the children were on the way to school, All the appa- ratus in the Central station, the Main street company, the West Side com- pany and the Falls company respond- ed to the alarm, All the city apparatus went up Broadway around the little plain and down Union street to Union Square. The West Side company took up a position in front of the court house on_Broadway, having lald a line of hose from the cistern in Union square, The auto pumper tock up a position right at the cistern and the Falls company took up a position in front of Breadway church, Within a remarkably short time ufter the bell had sounded the auto pumper was sending a stream up Broadway through an inch and a quarter nozzle. The maxisnum pressure was 180 pounds. With this pressure it was possible to throw water over the court house, Engineer James L. Hubbard operated the pumper, Chief Stanton says that the best way to reach tha pavents on the fire prevention subject is through the children by giving them such demonstrations and also by talks on fire prevention by the teachers in the schools, A part of the school day Monday was devoted .to this upon recommendation of Supt, Edward J. Graham, For the beneflt of the school child- ren of the city and In an endeavor to further the fire prevention movement the Cranston Company _distributed 4,000, Folders at the schools, On the front page is a picture of Chief Stan- ton. ©n the Inside pages are a list of suggestions made by Chief Stanton and on the last page appears the fire alarm telegraph.
