New Contract
 Agreed on For Electricians
Agreement Calls For $1, ,375 An Hour and Sets Up
 Apprenticeship Plan

Local B-9O International Bro.
 therhOOd of Electrical Workers and the Electrical Employers As sociatiOn have agreed on a new
 contract for electricians. The
 previous rate of pay for jour-
 neymen electricians was SIPS an
 hour, the new agreement calls
 for $1.37H an hour.
 Other changes in the agree
 ment are an apprenticeship
 agreement for all apprentices as
 set forth by the apprenticeship
 committee of Local B-9O and the Employers Association.
 APPRENTICESHIP PLAN
 In the future apprentices must be registered with the apprenticeship committee and they must serve five years at the electrical trade. They must attend evening school at the Boardman Trade School or the new State Trade School that is to be erected in the near future. Every three months the records of the ap- prentices will be checked up and their school record will be scored on their report card. Apprentices will be given the opportunity to transfer from one shop to another in order to get variety of training.
 Apprentices who start to work at the trade will receive 308o of the journeymen's rate of pay for the first six months. Second six month pay will be 359o of the journeymen's |wage; third six months 40% of above |wage etc. until the tenth six months is reached then they will receive 809o of the journeymen's wage which is the maximum they will receive as Apprentices. Then they will be given Ia journeymen's examination aud if they are successful will be paid the 6ourneynen's rate of pay.
 PROGRESSIVE STEP Local B-9O is very proud of this progressive step in seeing that their apprentices are prop erly trained. Wellington Harrison
 who is a field representative of the apprenticeship division of the Bureau of Labor Standards
 connected with the Labor De-
 pertinent in Washington, D. C.,
 assisted Local B-9O and the Em- ployers Association in negoti- ating this procedure. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen
 will be one apprentice to three jOurneymen.
 WORKERS COVERED
 Other features of the agreement were wage scale of $1.12H an hour for small house construction and job ping work. All employers must fur

RecordShows HisMis-useof Sherman Law
N. H. Central Labor Council Epected to Take Action
 At July 3 Meeting

The New Haven Central Labor Council at its next meeting on July 3, will take action requesting President Roosevelt not to appoint Thurman W. Arnold as Attorney General of the United States, THE UNION TIMES learned today.
 Reports are current in Washing ton, and have reached New Haven, that President Roosevelt is cOnsid- ering appointing Arnold, who is a member of the faculty of the Yale University Law School, to that office, succeeding Attorney General Robert H. Jackson, who has been appointed to the United States Supreme Court.
 USED ANTITRUST LAWS
 More than year ago, with a noise like a blast of trumpets. Ar mold started his crusade to shackle labor by use of the antitrust laws. At that time the New Haven Gen. tral Labor Council, among other A.F.L. bodies, pointed out to him that Congress had specifically ex- empted labor from the Sherman Antitrust Act, but that made no difference to Arnold. He went on beating his anti-uniOn drums. The Council invited him to speak at one of its meetings, and be ques- toned by local A.F.L. members. All to no avail. Some Congressman applauded him and increased his appropriation so that he could hire an army of 200 lawyers.
 LEGAL HASH
 Some five months ago the first of his cases reached the Supreme Court. That tribunal in handing down its decision, made hash of Mir. ArnOld's campaign against la-l bOr. The high court made it plain that the Sherman Act was not put on the statute books to persecute workers, and gave this ''trust- buster'' a sizzling lecture.
 Two months later the Supreme Court threw out of the window three more of Professor ArnOld's anti-labOr cases. The decision was unanimous, and the justices didn't even bother to write an opinion.
 In April the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against Mir. Arnold in a case involving Local SOY of the Teamsters Union. The Courts opinion again shot ArnOId's arguments full of holes.
 Because of his anti-Iabor record, organized labor in New Haven, which once considered him a lib eral, will ask President Roosevelt not to give MT. Arnold any further opportunity or power to indulge in ''trust-busting'' at the expense of the trade union movement.
