Danbury Manufactur-

tablish Classes——
Workers Protest
DANBURY, May 2—As a. result
of the proposed action or the school
board to establish a. class in hat
making at the State Trade school
here, several of the leading manufac-
turers of this city met with the
school board Wednesday night eta
special meeting and urged that im-
mediate steps be taken to start this
class. This is a. counter blow to the
meeting held a. month ago when 1118
leaders of the Danbury Hatters’
union met with the School board
and protested against such action.
Among the manufacturers pres-
ent Wednesday "night. were: C. At
0
the Mallory Hat company; D. E.
Loewe of the Loewe— Hat company:
A. A. Hodshon of the Hill and,L0per
Hat company and Alexander H.
Meeker or the Meeker Hat company.
They all urged the establishing of a
class in hat making to eliminate the
present system of teaching the men
in the factory. They also said that
by teaching boys over 16 years of
age the trade or hailing would make
them better citizens
The school board has now heard“
probably take definite action in the
near future. The state has endorsed
the plan. and it adopted, it will be
necessary for the city to appropriate
$1,000 (or the machinery and equip-
ment for the school.
