ground of unfair trade practice. CERTAIN CHAOS
 Should Arnold succeed, chaos would be certain in the huge de- fense construction program.
 The AFL unions are power fully entrenched and they would fight Denny's makeshlft UCW tooth and nail. Strikes would be only . part of the battle.
 The UCW was set up several years ago by John Lewis as 8 "nuisance" union when he was busy warning with the AFL. Tho UCW has never been Self-sup- porting and has subsisted chief ly on doles from the CIO treas ury. The union has had O stormy history. 1:
 Getting nowhere in the con- struction field, Denny, last spring, with the approval of his broth CT but without the authorization of CIO President Phil Murray, suddenly issued a charter to a Communist led Minneapolis teamsters union. Several weeks later, twenty leaders of the local were indicted by Federal grand jury.
 This episode was followed by an uprising within nine UCW construction locals in New York City against Denny's high z handed tactics. One of the com. plaints was that he was using their dues to try to organize. |. dormitory and other service ena- plOyes at Yale College. Since then, Denny has announced plans to move into still other non construction fields.
 This is the union and the kind of labor leadership in behalf of which Thurman Arnold is threat ening to bust up Hillman's sta. bilization accord.
 New Dealers certainly do the funniest things!
 NOTE: Last summer Arnold loudly threatened to resign if charges he had brought against several chemical firms with Nazi ties were not prosecuted, oply to enter @ few weeks ago into Q set- clement with them. Now he is again repeating the first part of this act in connection with some oil cases which have been pend- ing for nearly a year. He is tell- ing all over Washington that un- less Attorney General Riddle lets him go through with the prose- cutions, he will quit and blow the lid off the Justice Depart Inent.
 WHITE HOUSE STRANGER
 Snowy : haired Representative Charles A. Eaton, New Jersey Re- publican member of the House Foreign Affairs committee, who was invited to the White House Neutrality Act conferences in place of Ham Fish, enjoyed the thrill immensely. Also he con- fessed to knowing as little about the White House as 8 tourist.
 The first thing he did after re- ceiving the summons to the pow WOW was to rush over to Demo- cratic colleagues for advice.
 "Say, which entrance do you use when you go up there to meet the President?" Eaton asked.
 "Why, the front door, of course. What are you trying to do, kid us?"
 "NO, I'm on the levcl," as- sured Eaton. 'T haven't been up there for 90 long that I've forgotten my way around" ARMY MORALIST
 A social worker with a gruff voice, a brusque manner, and Q dead cigar in his teeth, has come to town to do something about morale. Mark McClosly used to teach ethics at the Ethical Cul- ture Schools in New York City. Now he Is Director of Recrea- ton under Paul McNutt, Federal Security Administrator.
