LABOR PEACE
COMMITTEE
By EDWARD B. LOCKETT

The Committee for Industrial

instruct that committee not to

This was learned today as lead.
erS of the industrial union faction
headed by John L. Lewis, of the
United Mine Workers, studied the
new A. F.. of L. move.
Thus, the peace overtHres made
by Max zaritsky, head of the Hat
ters' Union, in New York last week
today had accomplished simply a
restatement of the opposing views.
A. F. of L. Moves First
The A. F. of L. made the first
move, when 1t accepted one Of
zaritsky's proposals and named Z
committee to confer with a SIM
liar c. I. o. committee and "eN-
plore' all possible avenues OF
peace. Lewis will go along
the extent of naming a commit
tee.
Instructions to this committee
will direct that its members meet
with the A. F. of L. group and
state that the C. 1. o. is ready at
any time to discuss peace, on and
only on, the basis that industrial

The A. F.. of L., in naming its
committee, definitely stated that
this action was accompanied by
no commitments and no Stlpula-

John Brophy, director of the c.
I. O., conferred with Lewis today
concerning the strategy OF the IN
dustrial union faction.
An official high in C. I. o. coun-

will meet, chances for actual peace

 PAINT MURALS
Red Cross Received Gift Today From Eighth
 Grade Children

Two murals in water colors were received at Red Cross headquarters this morning and will be forwarded to National headquarters shortly. They were done by pupils in the eighth grade of Chase school as part of the work of Junior Red Cross units in local schools. One was entitled Desert Sunset" and the other an arctic scene in white and brown colors. Three other Red Cross units at Slocum, Anderson and Bunker Hill school are working on murals of this kind at present and upon completion the lot will be forward to Washington, where, aft CT inspection at headquarters, they will be sent to veterans hospitals.
 The murals are about three feet by two in size and though there may be slight inaccuracies and er- TOTS in perspective, they are un- usually well done for grammar school pupils. Some time ago several of these murals, most of them de- picting religious scenes, were sent to Vienna.
 Old double-deck street cars are being sold in London at $l0 each.

WPA SEWER JOB | RESUMED TODAY
Flooded Conditions Yes- terday Made Work Ut.
 terly Impossible

Work on all WPA sewer projects was resumed today, following lay off yesterday afternoon as result of flood conditions which made progress impossible. Conditions un- der which work was started this morning were not the best, but WPA employees went about the bus- mess of pumping water and clearing mudholes.
 The rise of the Naugatuck river yesterday led many to assume that work on the driving park would be held up for several days, but the flooded area was more to the east side, leaving the driving park area in a much better condition than originally supposed.
 Sewer projects throughout the city and vicinity, especially those located at low levels, were com- pletely flooded during the past two days and yesterday afternoon all men were forced to retire from their jobs until such time as the water receded and the rain ceased to Tall.
 In other districts of the state, particularly in and around Hart ford which was very seriously af- fected by floods, WPA workers were prepared to begin work in assisting local communities in doing general repair work. The $220,000 allotted for such an emergency some time ago to eleven districts there will be used for this purpose, permission having been granted by the state works progress administration. WPA workers have been ordered to assist in flooded areas around Lakeyille, Sharon, Washington, New Milford, Plymouth and Litchfield. It is ex- pected many other requests will come in from other towns.
