THE TAIL? LOOKS LIKE we I TAIL us some THs'onL- mo. ALL mom: While it is perhaps7a little early to discusalseriou‘sly the socailed ei- .tensiou of the South Nerwaik city lines to include the whole town of Norwaih. which is in reality a consoli- iuiation proposition garbed in a manner contemplated to meet with the most general public favor, coaslderable comment has been aroused by the proceedings to date. Now that the whoie*committee of sixteen has been named. the member ship is being analyzed. with a view to forming an opinion as to how nearly it actually represents the whole town. The result is hardly favorable to the idea as originally set forth. The most flagrant violation of the announc~ ed desire to have every section repre- noted is in the action of the select- tlie men, as men. chosen for the out- lying districts. is it possible that the soicctmcn found. after investigation. that that whole big section, Winnlpuuir. does not possess a man who is capable of . representing it? Likewise. that West , 'Norwallr is in a similar plight? Rather an unfortunate condition of adults. to say the least. Messrs. liuribntt and Goldschmidt are able men. but it can hardly be said that they are reopeo tlveiy Winnlpauit and West Norwalk residents. originally considerable pains were taken to maintain that South Norwalk. East Nor-walk and Rowayton would be bousfltted by a committee whose mem- ~ bgnhlp would number sixteen. though‘ / new only too patent that there ibig balance of power centered in it.’ which is not fair even to look the membership of the WI committee over and see how ‘7 t it will be for same of the ‘ beta to divorce their residential 7 .. ill their business Interest“ .. molly or sooth Nor-walk. pans.

Mr. Neither began to discuss the principles of: employera' liability, saying that his -bl,ll.wo,uld abrogate the follow servant rule; the assumption of risks in male mg contracts, and would restore to em- ployeea their rights under the .com- mon law. of which they had been de~ ,prived by the operation of what he .termed self made law instead of legis- lative enactment. He expressed the belief that the committee could draw 'an adequate bill which would not be .obiectlonable to employers and would: afford employees protection. Rev. Dr. C. 8. Macfarland. of South Norwallt, representing the industrial and Social committee of us. said he appeared in behalf conference. bill be drawn with certain definite moral principles. Absolute abolition of the follow servant rule is favored. The Hartford Central Labor union presented a draft of a bill. which was not read, but received by the committee “Trickery." Says Donahue. President C. J. Donahue for the State Federation of Labor. spoke of the work of'thc commission which drafted a bill for a liability law jwhich passed the House last melon. but was lost in the Senate, He said that the workinlrmen of the state looked upon that as a fair bill in which they had conceded much. Upon its failure to pass they felt that they had been tricked and bre now urgifui more drastic measures. that the federation would be satisfied rule. "Does your organization desire a compensation act and in accepting it waive rights under the common law?" asked Mr. Chandler. Mr. Donahue replied that, if the legislature should pass a compensa- tion lhw it would be accepted. but at the best he thought It would be a milk and ‘water sort of an act because no' adequate law of this kind has been oilseed by the state. He was sure such on not could not be passed in this state as the manufacturers would set up tip plea that It was putting upon them a burden which is not‘. borne by competitors outside the state Such a proposition is in an experimental stage. "We do know." said he. “if the assembly should abro sets the fellow servant rule we shall be satisfied " Repmeutatlve liotchkiss asked if labor was willing to accept the 1909 measure. and Mr. Donahue said It was not. Mr. Donahue was further sailed to ' say in a few words just what the fed oration stood for. and be said it was the abolition in toto of the fellow servant rule. 'fif you‘rkmmmlttee will do this." be Mid. “labor will rise up and call you blessed.” ELITE MUSICAL CLUB. m I Members lntsrtsiasd at Home of Mr. and Mrs. Horses Leather-land.
