BOTH EMPLOYED
Both worked at the Keystone
Metal Moulding plant in East
Detroit where they first met.
Mrs. Hickman described the
housewife as furious" when
she married Eddie. She believes
the woman has some mysterious
hold on her husband.
Mrs. johnson, who says she is
a licensed clairvoyant and was
born to the double veil, said to-
day she believes Eddie is still
in Chicago. It's just a "hunch"
she says, similar to the one. that
led her to Chicago. At the time
of the first bunch she was flat
on her back in bed but similar
lunches, she claims, come when
she opens envelopes or gazes at
tea leaves.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Hickman de-
clined to reveal whether or not
member of her family had
gone to Chicago to hunt for
Hickman.

Tn the telegram, Secretary John J. Driscoll, secretary of the state c. I. O., said that nowhere in these ceremonies is the union being given recognition" though most of the plant workers in the three cities are members of the union.
 MT. Driscoll said today, however, that union employees have been urged by union officials to take part 100 per cent in the presenta- tion ceremonies. since the workers are straining to the utmost to pro- duce the weapons and materials needed to beat the Axis.
 The text of MT. Driscoll's tele- gram to Secretary of Navy Knox follows:
 "Wednesday ceremonies plan ned for 3-plants American Brass Company in Ansonia, Waterbury and Torrington where Navy E is being awarded. Most of the Ill., 900 employees are members of our Union and we have exclusive bar gaining rights. We are delighted that these workers and their job is to be thus recognized by the Navy. We are deeply concerned, however, on one point. Nowhere in these ceremonies is the Union be- ing given recognition. Now, MT. Secretary, we are establishing pro duction committees in these plants and our workers are anx- ious and eager to push output to still higher levels but frankly there is dissatisfaction over the fact that the Union which has not only represented these men faithfully but has also helped to increase production for the Navy in many ways is not given any recognition ill these ceremonies. AS secretary of the CTO in state with tremendous war orders can testify that the same resentment is spreading into many other plants which have received or may shortly receive the Navy E. Our members have asked me to ask you or your delegated labor ofil. cials this question: Why can't someone in official Washington do something to require management generally to recognize the duly constituted organization repre- senting labor in instances in Navy E presentation ceremonies.

JAIL PRISONERS
 GIVEN $1 DAILY
ll2 on Outside Jobs, Alle- viating Labor Shortage;
 Many Harvesting Crops

A record number of New Haven county jail prisoners were working on outside jobs today as part of the program of High Sheriff J. Ed ward Slavin to help alleviate the labor shortage. There were 112 jail inmates at work, the majority on farms, and others at docks and warehouses. This tops by far all previous records.
 The men each receive $l a day They are allowed to keep this sum for themselves, contrary to prac- ticeS in some other institutions.
 In cases where jail labor is em- ployed, the employer is made a special deputy and he is made re- sponsible for the prisoner. Thus far no prisoners have been reported missing or, in fact, have any at- tempts at escape been reported.
 The bulk of the 112 are at work helping to harvest crops and pick fruit about New Haven county. The others are employed in loading and unloading barges, an din doing other simple manual labor.
 Tn some cases, the plan of using jail workers has helped prevent field and orchard crops from being wasted in large part through lack of sufficient harveSters.
