Sullivan, mayor of Derby, Conn., one of the four, labor union mayors of Connecticut cities. In an In terview printed denouired the walking delegate and advised unlona to have nothing to do with him, deprecated the extravagance of the high union of ficials, and regretted that so much money Is paid In salaries for which the working people receive practically nothing In return. He protested against the Insertion of the union rec ognition clause In agreements between employers and employes, and said that in his opinion the successful labor union must settle Its differences without aa slstance from the outside. Mayor Sul livan said: "The walking delegate Is more or less of a grafter. Local men are In a bet ter position to settle their differences with employers. I believe It non-sensl- cal to insist on the recognition clause in agreements, and such a thing Is not worth fighting for. When an employer grants union wages and hours he recognises the union. It is my belief that the clause la frequently inserted by the walking delegate simply for his own personal benefit and to keep open the breach between the employer and employes. "1 am opposed to the walking dele gate also on the ground that he Is a useless expense. The money paid In salaries, or much of It, should go to swell the strike benefit fund. The suc cessful union of the future will be one In which most of the officers will serve without pay." . t I , 1 Miimnmiii umU's'-s sim es n n 1 s nis'ev'" in '" "1 The Kind Ton Have Always Bought, and which Has been In use for over SO years, has borne the slgnatnre of and has been made nnder his per- isVsCsWZ. sonal supervision since Its Infancy.
