WOLL ASSERTS
Union Workers Strongly
Oppose Government Control
OF Labor Relations

Philadelphia (ILNS- Matthew
Vol, president Of the American
Federation Of Labor, told the Ameri-
can Political Science Association that
organized labor is "unalterably OPP
posed" to control of labor relations by
the Federal Government
Labor is entirely willing to have
the government, through its Depart
ment Of Labor, set up standards and
exchange information and help in the
settlement Of disputes" Woll said,
"but it is unalterably opposed to any
department Of government attempt
ing to control and direct the relations
of industry and labor from a Washing
ton office
NIn America, an eveltincreasing
number of us view with great concern
the rapid extension Of the government
into the whole field of Industrial re-
lations. It is the conviction of an ever
increasing number of trade union lead
ers that the government has ventured
too far in the extension of its funct-
ions into our industrial life.

meshed in Facist and dictatorial prac-
tees that return to democratic Ideals

kers arrayed against the government.
Regarding the National Labor Re
lations Board, Woll said that 'in their

RENOWNED PRIEST
 GUEST OF KACEYS
Rev. Dr. Robert White to Speak at Catholic Action
 Dinner January 26

The Rev. Dr. Robert J. White, dean of the Catholic university Law school, who comes to Waterbury later this month to speak at the an- nual Catholic Action banquet of Sheridan council, 24, Knights of Co., lumbus, is well known in congress sional circles in Washington, D. C., where he has been stationed for some time.
 Last year when congress was fashioning social securities act, Dr. White, who is highly regarded as an authority on jurisprudence and constitutional law, was called in on several occasions to aid in framing the law. He is believed to have shaped several portions of this piece of legislation.
 Last December, the 7th, Dr. White was the main speaker at the Ma tional Catholic Observance of the Sesquicentennial of the Signing of the U. s. Constitution. This event was held at Catholic university and was attended by members of con- gress, both branches, as well as rep resentatives of many of the 'embas- sies, and other prominent person. ages in Capitol life.
 He spoke on this occasion on "The Constitution of the United States and the Encyclicals of Our Times.
 The K. of o. banquet will be held in the Hotel Elton on the eve ming of Wednesday, January 26. As in the past this banquet is for both men and women. Tickets were re- gently distributed and reservations are now being made with expecta- ,tions being that the reservation list will be closed by Saturday, Jan- uary p, so much attention has the announcement of Dr. Whites con- templated visit attracted.
 Plans whereby Catholic members of the local, county and state Bar associations may pay their respects to Dr, White are now bieng formu- lated by the committee in charge of the banquet and will be announced shortly. A fitting testimonial for the

 Came repeal and many of the machines disappeared. They were found here and there but they didn't have the same kick anymore and soon, with the authorities giv- ing little push to help, they slid out of sight altogether.
 Soon there began to appear new type of machine - the pin game. The played pulled a lever and had eight or ten balls to shoot into holes to see how high a score he could get. But these were too tame for people who were accustomed to losing their money much more quickly than that.
 So, naturally, there came pin games with only four balls to shoot, then three, then two and one. Fin ally the ball disappeared altogether and the player just put his nickel in the slot. It he won, the coins dropped into a drawer. Needless to say, the drawer was not often worn out from being opened.
 Then came the so-called flash" games, which gave lots of decor ative effects and colored lights for a nickel but few hits. They had their day of popularity, but few months ago new type of machine began to displace them. Shoulder high and streamlined, it was made of excellent woods and nicely painted. It took a second look to realize that it was just an old fashioned slot machine in modern dress.
 "Ugh", said one of the "boys" with sigh, "that's too fancy"
 But this type of machine received a heavy play, much of it from the post-repeal drinkers of fancy con- coctives, and many a tavern or store owner .sighs a heavy sigh of regret these days.
