LIVELY HEARING
 HELD YESTERDAY
DriscOll Participates in Discussion on Anti-SabO-
 tage Legislation
tBy Democrat Legislative RepOrter)

(By Democrat Legislative Reporter)
 State Capitol, Hartford, March 2 Frequent clashes between mem- bers of the Judiciary Committee and spectators present at hearing yes- terday afternoon in the Capitol re- suited in one of the stormiest ses- slons of 1041 as discussion of a series of bills seeking to outlaw sabotage and syndicalism was held.
 One of the proposed measures was introduced by Senator Michael V. Blansfleld of Waterbury.
 Taking Q prominent part in the hearing was John J. Driscoll, secre- tary of the State CIO Council and executive secretary of the Water bury Brass Workers Union, who ex- changed remarks with Senator Jo. seph P. Cooney on several occasions, remarking at one time that he had voted for Willkie."
 This latter remark precipitated an argument between the Waterbury CIO leader and Representative Ab- raham A. RibicofI, Democrat, of Hartford on the respective merits of John L. Lewis as a labor leader.
 At another point in the hearing Representative Ribicoff told MT. Driscoll to fish or cut bait", mean- ing that he wanted him to tell the committee on what grounds he was opposing the anti-sabotage bills, whether 1t was on account of the measures bearing on labor or oppo- sition to anti-sabotage legislation as such.
 At one point the hearing was al- most out of hand as Senator Cooney Michael Russo, representing the Communist Party of Connecticut, and Dr. Emily Pierson of Cromwell exchanged heated remarks on the status of religion in Russia. sen- ator Albert Coles of Bridgeport, chairman of the commission, had to rap for order several times to end the verbal battle.
 The bills allow extensive probes into potential or alleged subversive activities within this state and labor representatives have claimed since their introduction that they consti- ute 6 menace to the present posi- ton of labor.

 And they were to get in there and help democratize the army so the army would be run by the en- listed men?" Canning was asked.
 Pretty much that, yes"
 Canning named B teachers and staff assistants at c. c. N. Y. who, he said, are or have been Commun- ists, and he gave the party aliases of some of them. He said John Kenneth Ackley, the college regis- trar, whose annual salary is $4,- l36, was @ Communist under the name, Jake.
 Charles H. Futile, chairman of the city board of education's admin istratiVe committee for c. o. N. r., said last night he was recommend ing that custer proceedings be start- ed immediately against all the teach- CTS Canning named.
