 Labor Feeling Curtailment
Building Trades and Con tractors Clinic Suggested
 As Possible Help

According to the business agents of building trades locals in Connecticut, their member ship is seriously threatened with unemployment because priorities have already curtaiIed cOnstruc- ton work in the State and may curtail it even more in the near future. A number of contractors have already closed their offices, dug out dusty tools and them selves gone back on the job when they could find employment. Little or no steel can be gotten for private construction. Jobs on hand cannot be completed, and all construction is far behind schedule. Even where material is available, deliveries are delayed.
 OTHER MATERIAL NEEDED
 Other materials essential to the building trades which contractors are finding difficulty in securing are: stone, copper, plate glass, wire-lap- ping, plaster board, lumber in any shape, plumbing supplies, brass, col ored tile and glazed tiles necessary for walls.

Johnson Local 79, Carpenters and David Nc Cormiclc, Local 424, Ironworkers ar, being harraSsed by members seeking jobs after the construction work the, had been employed on, folded due tt lack of materials.

 Political Pot
 To Boil Soon
Lively Campaigns Expected In New Haven, Bridge
 port and Hartford

The political pot is on the stove ir Connecticut, but as yet has not started to boil. At present it is only warm. When the campaign speeches get un- der way, and the candidates find that their opponents are not quite perfect, more heat probably will be generated.
 In New Haven the Democrats
 unanimously have renominated
 Mayor John w. Murphy for his
 sixth term of office. The Elm
 City Mayor has steadfastly re-
 fused to take vacation, and
 there is no reason to believe he
 has changed his mind. Certainly
 the Democratic Party will con-
 duct its usually expert campaign.
 The Republican Party, under the
 enthusiastic leadership of Harry
 E. Birney, has entered Atty.
 Thomas R. FitzsimmOns in the
 field against the Mayor.
 In Bridgeport, Mayor Jasper Mo Levy will again run on the Socialist ticket, and again will get much of his support from Republicans. The Demo crats are said to be planning to run Milton McDonalld, of the Teamsters Union, A.F.L., for mayor. The ticket may also include aldermanic candi- dates who belong to C.I.O. unions If these plans materialize, and if the Democratic machine can be unified, a lively campaign is likely.
 The Democratic Party in Hartford is expected to draft" Mayor Thomas J. Spellacy for another term, and if it does, Spellacy will be reelected.

 Hit CuazzoO Raiding Here
Central labor Council Gives Support to Machinists
 In Campaign

The full unionization of the High Standard Mfg. Co.,, and the NIB. Mfg. Co.,, will be completed in the near future, it was an- nOunced today by Clark Good rich, grand lodge representative of the International Association of Machinists.
 The prediction is based on the fact that there has been a marked increase in the number of author izations signed by the men in these plants in the last week, and equally important, the fact that the men in the plants have taken it upon themselves to complete the organization drive.
 CONDEMN CUAZZO
 Together with the announcement came condemnation from all quarters, both A.F.L. and C.I.O., of the tactics being used in this city by Caesar Guazzo, organizer for the Paper Novelty Workers, 9 CLIO. interna- tional.
 Guazzo's stated determination to raid any union in this city, whether A.F.L. or C.I.O., has already put him in hot water with the labor move ment of New Haven.

 Edward J. Foley, director of the Homes Registration Bureau, is in all probability the most persevering mem Der of the Fair Rent Committee. He was appointed last April by Governor Hurley to set up the Homes Registra- ton Bureau under the State Defense Council and the New Haven Defense Committee. The Bureau began func- tioning the first week of May. MT. Foley is enthusiastic over the CO., operation he has received from the press and radio.

Meany Says Five Million Mark Will Be Passed
 In a Years Time

WASHINGTON-The total dues paid membership in the AFL at the end of its fiscal year, August 31, 1941, was 4,469, 9,056-the highest figure in AFL history = Secretary-Treasurer George Meany announced here today. This all-time high figure represents a gain of 321, ,613 members in the past year.
 A REAL FIGURE
 Meany emphasized that the figures include only membership on which national and interna- tiOnal unions and local trade and federal labor unions have paid per capita tax. The total does not include unemployed or floating members, estimated at more than a half million.
 Within the past eight years, Meany said, "the membership of the AFL has more than doubled. In 1o33 we had only 2,10O,OOO members. Since then our movement has grown rapidly in size despite the fact that a million members left us when their unions joined the CIO in 1885. Our growth has been steady and healthy. We are setting new records every day.
 Within the coming year, we have every confidence that through organ ization and education we will be able to go over the five million mark with our paid-up membership total"

Convention Reports Mem bership Increase; Hourly
 Wage Scale Boosted

The Brotherhood of Painters Dec orators & Paperhangers (AFL) con- cluded its 10th quadrennia1 convention in Columbus, Ohio, after pledging full support to the defense program and revising its constitution.
 Speaking to the 895 delegates. President l.. P. LindelOf said: ''Organized labor will not desist, but will continue this policy (of supporting the defense pro- gram), asking in return only that none of the social or ecO- homie gains or achievements we have made be denied us and that our standards not be lowered during this present crisis or emergency through which we are passing.''
 MEMBERSHIP INCREASED
 Secretary-Treasurer Clarence E Swick reported that the union had in creased its membership by 24,267 anc had issued 267 charters since the 193i convention. He placed the present membership at 128,984 and said that the union had signed contracts cover. ing 116,0OO. The average hourly scale for painters has been boosted from $1.05 to $1.10, he asserted.
 Linde1of and Swick as well as the six incumbent vice-presidents were re- effected. Resolutions adopted called for a campaign against high living costs, urged defeat of anti-strike legis- lation and called for labor unity in the interest of defense.
 One resolution urged that the contents of paints be printed on the labels, since use of poisonous ingredients is on the increase.
