LEGISLATURE IS
 CALLED SCRAMBLE

New Haven, Conn, June l2-(UP) Three Connecticut labor leaders, describing the recent General As- sembly session as a wild and dis graceful scramble for well-paying political jobs," today advocated for- mation of a Farmer-Labor party.
 The proposal was made by Rep, Nicholas Tonlassetti, D., New Brit ain, chairman of Nabor Non-Parti- san League; Daniel Howard, chair man of the Connecticut Conference on Social and Labor legislation, and Thomas Molloy, chairman of the State CIO Council.
 Tn Q joint statement they declared the legislature had done "absoulte- ly nothing 10 rthe working people" ard that because the needs of the people of Connecticut are greater today than ever before, the failure of our elected representatives makes one conclusion obvious: a>Farmer- Q Labor party must be formed in Connecticut"
 An objective, said the statement, would be to make Connecticut "A 100 per cent union state"

British Bombers Raid Vital Areas of Germany
Ruhr-Rhine Section, Rotterdam, Boulogne, French Invasion Coast Among Objectives Hit; Nazis in
 LeafIet Campaign, Dropping Thousands
BY w. R. DOWNS
'nited Press Staff Correspondent

(Un1teU freSS StaU COrTeSpOnucHU
 London, June 12 - (U.P.) -- Brit ish long range bombing planes, fly ing over Germany under the almost full moon, bombed the vital Ruhr- Rhine industrial area of Germany for hours last night and left great fires in their wake, the air ministry said today.
 Duisberg and Dusseldorf were the principal targets, but the British planes, in unusual force, attacked other objectives in the area and also bombed docks at Rotterdam and Boulogne.
 Earlier in the night. as the moon came out from clouds which shrouded the French coast, big formations of bombing planes heav- lily attacked the French invasion coast.
 They hurled bombs on Calais, Boulogne and the Cape Griz Neg area of the invasion coast, blasting at shipping, docks and the long range artillery batteries which the Germans used to lombard the Kentish coast.
 The magnitude of the nights raids was indicated by the air min istry statement that eight bombing planes failed to return.
 It was the 38th raid on Duisberg and the 30th on Dusseldorf. These towns had last been bombed June 2.
 An air ministry communique said:
 "A strong force of bomber com mand aircraft made heavy attack on the Ruhr last night. The princi- pal objectives were Duisberg and Duesselford, where large fires were started and extensive damage was done to industrial buildings.
 Attacks also were made on docks at Rotterdam and Boulogne.
 Eight of our aircraft are missing from these operations"
 The strange recent lull in Ger man air raids on Great Britain was emphasized both by the fact that the Germans had failed to take ad- vantage of the June moon to make

 Assault Case

 Immediately after the court had pronounced sentence, members of Chuchelow's family, who earlier in the trial had testified in his be- half, burst into tears.
 The trial opened this morning in superior court with a summation by Atty. Michael v. Blansfield, counsel for the accused Tn his concluding words to the court, Atty. Blansfield placed particular emphasis upon the charge that the complaining witness had sought to etxort $2,000 from the members of the accused's fam fly. In order that she keep quiet.
 States Attorney William B. Fitz- gerald then briefly reiterated the case of the state.
 At the conclusion of the states attorneys remarks Judge Wynne re- viewed the salient aspects of the case, and pronounced "the accused guilty as charged" Tn his analysis, Judge Wynne declared that he found the evidence conclusive" as to Chuchelow's guilt, and that in his opinion the girl in the case Is essentially decent girl, prompted by decent instincts.
 Following this, court was adjourn ed for a brief recess, and recon vened shortly afterward, at which time sencte was pronounced.
 Before sentence was passed, Atty. Fitzgerald sought to introduce a transcript of the record of last October's trial at which Chuchelow was found guilty, and sentenced to the Cheshire Reformatory. As in the present instance he was charged with criminal assault. Atty.
