“I am not speaking for the com-

I know personally that the padlock
department of the Yale d: Towns
could be taken to the Philadelphia
plant and in that manner 1.000
workers would be thrown out of
jobs. Then again. we must consider.
the builders' hardware department
could be removed to Chicago and
1.600 more would be out of work.
Where would we all be? It would
mean that Stamford would have a
black-eye. By the attitude which the
opposition has taken. they will not
bring any new factories to Stem-
ford." '
"The merchants and people of
Stamford ought to consider this sit-
uation. What would Stamford be
without its factories. I think there
are now about 180 factories. in
Stamford and about twenty of these
are big plants. Stamford didn't

Discussing the claim of the oppo-
sition that the young men have not

Mr. Abel salted Mr. Martin if there
