 The next step, it was added, would be for the Viehy regime to fix dates for the trials, possibly within the next two months.

in New Haven has its own building, the report states.
 "While it is true that the building has been bought, it has not been paid for While 1t is not as exciting to talk about paying for building as it is to talk about victories in our vari- ous campaigns, the fact must be faced that if labor is to have its own home, ali the unions must lend hand. In the meantime, the building is a bee hive of activity, with meetings and conferences being held morning and night, seven days a week. The execu- tive board is now making plans for the formal dedication"
 The report, sections of which appear in other columns of this edition, was read by Nathan Sherman, Teachers Union, an executive board member.
 The Councils guest, Senator Wheel CT, expressed fear that American en- try into the war would destroy the Bill of rights, if not the democratic form of government itself.

Mayor Meets C.L.C.
 Group on Project

A committee from the Central Labor Council, meeting with Mayor John W. Murphy, has gone into the possibility of re- opening the nursery project at the Clinton Avenue School. The project, according to the Mayor, is held up through lack of quali- fled teachers with W.P.A. status. The committee presented list of unemployed teachers, none of whom, however, had this status. Mayor Murphy stated that if any of the teachers could or cared to be certified by the W.P.A., he would consider them for the project.
 The committee is composed of Clarence s. Bremner, Typos, chairman; Rich ard Crosky, Cooks and Walters; and John Marlowe, Brewery Workers.

hours per week, divided into five work days (from Monday to Friday, inclu- sive) of eight hours each, i.e., from 500 AM. to 5 :OO PM"
 Other provisions in this section in- clude payment of wages at the rate of time and one-half for overtime work, or work done on Sundays and holi- days, except that "there shall be 10 sVork done On Loboy Day." Overtime work shall not be permitted except when unavoidable, and the Union must give its consent. If it should be neces- sary for the employer to work con- tinuously, the Union will give its per- mission for shift-work, three shifts, the first of eight hours, the second of seven hours, and the third of six hours, for which the journeymen shall be paid the amount for a full working day of eight hours. Only one appren- tice shall be permitted for each five journeymen, and at least one journey man of 55 or over shall be employed for job employing six people. For one employing sixteen or over, an ad- ditional journeyman of 55 or over must be employed.
 Out-of-town work by members of Local 186 shall be paid for at the same rates as local work. Transports tion costs over 10 cents will be paid for by the employer, and board and lodging will also be taken care of by the employer.
 The contract also provides for the method of payment of wages and the method of handling grievances, and further provides: =. that the en- ployer will not lay off or discharge or discriminate against any journeyman or journeymen because of their Union activity or of any complaints to the Union for any grievances that they may have against the employer"
 There are further provisions cover- ing conditions of work, health and safety.

figures are as of April IS, 1941. Tn Bridgeport, rents on the general aver- age have gone Up 4 per cent; and homes renting for $20 month or less have gone up 14.7 per cent.
 "The statistics of rent charges do not tell the story of doubling up liv- ing in temporary barracks, and talk ing long trips to nearby towns for overnight lodging" says the Depart ment of Labor.
 Prices of many of the foods most important in wage carers budgets were even higher in January, 1o41, than they were in October .1o3o. In Bridgeport, the only Connecticut city studied meat alone increased 7.8 per cent in price.
 The index of prices for the 28 basic commodities used by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as indicators of price trends show 36.5 per cent in- crease between August, 1889 and April, 1941.
