 Excellent outdoor skating is also available at a new rink which has been built just a quarter of mile from the railroad station, directly adjacent to attractive skiing slopes, the latter being served by a 700- foot ski tow.

LABOR OUTLOOK
 DISCUSSED HERE
Incorporation of Unions Favored; A. F. of L.=CIO
 Split to Be Patched Up

The American labor situation was discussed last night at dinner meeting of the Waterbury chapter, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, at The Elton. Leading the discussion. from opposing view points were Alan c. Curtiss, assis- tant to the general manager of the Scovill Mfg. Co.,, and Frank Rising managing and labor editor of the publication, Business Week.
 MT. Curtiss declared that labo, unions should be incorporated, anc said that such step would make unions more responsible. MT. Rising on the other hand, said that incor- poration of unions would not add tc labor.s responsibility, and he added that there was little chance that legislation forcing incorporation could be passed at Washington.
 A prophecy that the split between the A. F. of L. and the c. I. O. would be ended was made by MT Rising. Both he and MT. lCurtisS agreed that peace between the two bodies would aid both business and labor.
 MT. Rising also predicted that within two years Henry Ford would enter into negotiations with his en- ployes through collective bargain ing agency, which will not be a company union and not necessarily the c. I. O. industry, labor and the public, he said, will eventually set tie the present problem.
 MT. Curtiss decried the closed shop and the check-off system. Re- lations between labor and business he said, are "all mixed up'.
