 Labor Bill Battle
 Hartford, Conn, March N. - (Ur) - The legislative judiciary committee, in Q tangle over c bill creating state labor relations board, today postponed action on, the d. iliintstration must" proposal for ct least another week.
 The committee has been on the verge of reporting the measure for days, but another dispute finally forced additional delay. The latest argument was over whether the bill should follow the federal pattern in which the relations board was prosecutor, judge and investigator.
 The bill under consideration by the committee provided for a three. man commission to be appointed by the governor.
 Another must" bill, again ennpha. sized by Governor Hurley in Hartford speech last night, was the Savings Bank Life Insurance bill now tied up in the House Banks Committee, apparently for several weeks to come.
 Meantime, Representative William L. Hadden, Republican, Orange, House Majority Leader, indicated bill barring states attorneys from private practice was not in the leg islative province, but should be handled by superior or supreme court justices.
 His comment came at c judiciary committee hearing on the measure. supported by Governor Hurley in his inaugural address.
 A subcommittee of the agricul- ture committee heard representa- tives of the United Milk Drivers Union of Connecticut say Governor Hurley's milk bill would result in reduced wages for milk drivers un- less Q minimum price to the con sumer was established.
 The banks committee heard argu- Inents in favor of a measure tripping the state banks commissioner of authority to set interest rates in mutual savings banks.
 Banks Commissioner Walter Perry, seeking to retain the authority told the committee: Nowhere else in the United States do savings banks de- positors as whole enjoy 50 large a return on their money as here in Connecticut"
 Hartford. Conn.,, March 27. - (UP) - A bill allowing life insur. ance policies having . cash sur. render value after the first year of issuance to be used as collaterial for a bank loan. was favorably reported today by the Senate and House Banks committees
 Unfavorably reported by the Sen. ate Judiciary Committee was @ bill allowing incurable insanity to be used as Q ground for divorce when the afflicted person has been con. fined in an institution for five or more years.
