Warner, secretary of the ‘American Radio Relay league. “Prior to the wartime regulations transterring control of wireless to_the navy department, all activities were under the supervision of the depart- ment of commerce.

MEN HAVEN'T BEGUN TO FIGHT YET Mr. Rooney. authorized the following statement Wednesday night: . We are greatly pleased with' the situation tonight. We see where Mr. Perkins takes ad- vantage of men who served his com- Piws Taithtully for years, men who have gained the respect of the public and who have worked for him in semi official positions cuch as starters, in- spectors and despatchers. These men ‘were chlled to his office and told that "-My had to report at New lLondon at 4 o'clock for the purpose of hearing {the plans as to the operation of cars in New Leondon. They were told that they should go to New London and must operate cars or sever their con- nections with the company. They were expected to leave their homes and femilies to do the bidding of Mr. Perkins. We are able to report th: the n they have ready to. operate cars two are recent recruits. On last Friday because the linemen to present a request for increased wages and better working conditions at 1 o'clock they were laid off at 3 o clock. Because of work that was or- dered to be dome by police authori- ties a few men were called back to |work: the others were locked out. i These few men who returned to work when they found that. their fellow workers were so shamefully treated they immediately joined their fellow ‘workers. Mr. Perkins, the men feel that be- ca4s6 of your: inwistance upon your so-called fair methods of arbitration lthat you must have some under- lying motive. Would they be right in assuming that in the ‘event of the third man being chosen by the governor that you might use the same subteranean passages that you may bave used In_trying to bring about a pecial session of legislature. Are hey also right in_assuming that you object to the naiming of the third iman by Taft and Manly of the war {labor board because the same subter- ranean passages have nof been dug quite as far as_San Diego, Cal. or some point -in Quebec, the last two places that T read of as being visited by Taft and Manly? Why your silence on vour own proposition? In answering thiz, if you do, please do not resort to fizures but present your answer in plain facts. PETER J. ROONEY. T WILL FIGHT POSSIBLE SPANISH FLU EPIDEMIC Dr. William Johnston a noted phy- sician of Boston, who with his wife, was visiting in Hartford Tuesday call- ed in the afternoon at the office of v s Of y heaith in the capitol and had a talk Norwich against Theodore Wisniewski, | with some of the officials on the prob- jability of a recurrence of the epidem- {ic of influenza in September. Pr. Johnston did not agree with the onin- ion held in Chicago and other places that the disease would return with greater intensity than when it first appeared last year. He based his opinion on the belief that many people have been immunized and will not be asceptible to the disease this year. _ Dr. T. Eben Reeks, the deputy com- missioner of healih said Wednesday that the state would be in a much bet- ter position to grapple with such an epidem] this year than, it was last. Oae of the great difficulties experienc- led in 1918 was due to the scarcity of | physicians and nurses in the state brought about by the requirements of war service, many being in France. Most of these have been discharged from the service of the government and would be available in Seéptembe rwhen the first siSh of the recurrence of the disease may be expected. Dr. Black, commissioner of health, jand Dr. Reeks have made arrange- i ments for the treatment of persons suffering from the disease. When it broke out alst year the state was prac- tically unprepared for it though the effect of this unpreparedness was in a great measure overcome by prompt action on the part of the local and state medical authorities. Dr. Reeks does not agree with the theory that the recurrence will be more intense than the original epi- demic. The department of health was, however, he said, taking no chances and was making the most effective preparation to meet it. The department has received a cir- cular from the municipal government of Chicago on the subject. In Chica- g0 the authorities are very active in their preparations for the worst. The number of persons who died from the epidemic in this state last year was about 10,000. TAUGHT FORTY YEARS— .

Bulkeley during the A k pession of the legislature, in lvancing private funds to pay ex- Ppenses of the state until the following session of the aseembly reimbursed him." The colonel felt copfident that the ‘written approval of a majority of the present legislature would have a strong moral effect on the incoming session and justify the trustees-in making the loan to provide accommo- dations for students in home econom- ics enrolled for the fall term of the eollege. The board of eontrol has declined to encow the move on the grounds that it would be establishiny® a bad precedent and invite such precedure on the part of various other state in- stitutions when the legislature was not in session. Colonel Hall said last night. * however, that the - trustees would again lay their case before the board of control and the state board of finance at a meeting at the ‘capitol next Tuesday. House Leader King, in renlving to asking for an, wrote: “The emergency, as elearly portrayed in your cemmunication of the 2ith, of the trustees, and, as a_member of the general assembly.
