Labor Commissioner's Optimistic View Of Connecticut Industry
Labor Commissioner P H Connolly does not see a long downturn for Connecticut industry. He expects a post year end revival as factory managers stock raw materials for finished goods. In Waterbury he notes the worst conditions, with many out of work and foreign workers returning home, while statewide unemployment rose modestly from 1912. He views the calamity talk as political campaigning, unlikely to mislead informed observers.
