Labor Strikes Out At Initiation

ABORS stake in the of the raOning and price
control programs is undoubtedly bigger than that of
other group And labor is learning finally that doesn't
stand chance of protecting that stake in its future
y by wishing for it, Some of that learning has been done the
hard way, but labor knows that take active
part i'm making price control and ratiOning and
that this that member of American labor groups
has keep his watchul the prices of things
he buys.
Labor has taken interest i'm raioning and price control
from the very first and has tried take organized part
in these programs But all often this has turned into
grumbngs about the inconvenience of raons grumbngs
about getting enough gasoline enough butter
enough and this misses the real point of the programs
by about ten million miles
There's i'm kidding ourselves into thinking
have everything want i'm wartime The figures against
it, And there's in kidding ourselves either about
plain truth that try get what by bidding
up prices goods will end up by wrecng the
buying power of money Every little prvate dea
ends in sale above legal prices helps build up
The raonng and price control programs protecting
labor right and they're protecting labors future We're
going the of this and the price control
and raOnng working prevent that from
becoming milestone around and childrens
necks for the next hundred years.
Organized labor in Connecticut will chance to put

delegate to the conference and send him there

Labor holds the price control and Black Market

BOSTON.-Pres. Daniel J. Tobin

This That !
By ROBERT B. RICKEL

ALTHOUGH ORGANIZED La
Dor in Hartford has made great
strides toward wiping out the stig-
ma of an Open-shop town, there
exists a great need now for the or
ganizatiOn of the city's thousands
of white collar workers. The time
is ripe, labor leaders feel, for a
campaign to uniOnize the employees
of the insurance companies, many
of which have their headquarters in
the Capital City. Discomfort runs
high among these low-paid office
workers who are frozen to their
jobs, while the cost of living has
swollen. Thus they become acutely
aware of the value of unionizatiOn.
CHARGED WITH KICKING his
wife downstairs, an anti-uniOnisi
was glad to get off with fine of a
500 after pleading guilty and of
fering no defense. When he went
to pay the fine the clerk demanded
Sos. ''What's the extra five
bucks for?" asked the guy. ''That's
the amusement tax" said the clerk.

ration of Labor, unless he finally
decides to take the State Labor
Dept. post offered him by Gov
Baldwin. Egan is now serving his
twenty-first year as secretary-treas
urer.
THE LAM. stands to gain juris
diction over the United Aircraft
Corp, employees now in the process
of being organized in the ALL, as
the result of the Machinists' return
to the American Federation. Some
$4,000 workers are involved in the
Aircraft drive in the Hartford area
1t is expected that the campaign
will now begin in earnest with full
assistance of LAM. organizers.
ALTON LEVY, former New York
I.L.C.W.U. organizer, whose Army
court martial and sentence has
aroused the anger of believers in
civil liberties and justice, is vel
known in Hartford. Levy's case
grew out of his protest against
what he considered discriminatory
practices against Negroes. He is re
membered in this State for his eff
fective organization against sweat
shop operators in the clothing in

PETER BENARD, president OF
the Bridgeport C.L.U., plans to

BREAKFAST CEREAL

pie have lost ground as cereal sales
men. The spotlight they once Oc-
cupied is now being hogged by
''enrichment," Consumers Union
found in analyzing claims for
breakfast cereals. And enrichment
usually consists of adding to refined
or processed cereals some of the
vitamins and minerals removed
from them by processing.
If you prefer processed cereals, it
is better to buy those which have
been enriched. But the unrehned whole
grain cereals are better food choice
Among the lowest priced brands of
rolled oats are Kroger's, White Spray,
Gold-Seal, National, Quaker, and
Sunnyfeld. Among the lowest priced
whole wheat cereals are Coop,
GLE, and Petit ohns. These cereals
cost from three-tenths to seven-tenths
of a cent per serving, while ready to
eat cereals cost up to 10 times as
much.
WOMEN'S PANTIES
Consumers Union tested 80
brands of women's panties, includ-
ing as many styles of each brand as
were available. Among the best
buys we're: ART (WOolworth
Stores), 29c-3c; Flawless, Csc;
Blue Swan (Kress Stores), 49c-59c;
Forest Mills, soc, cotton and rayOn
Blossom, 29c-59c. All except Forest
Mills are made of rayOn alone. A
number of brands selling at ST and
more were of poorer quality than
these best buys.
WARTIME LAUNDRY
ManpOwer and fuel shortages
have closed down many laundry
plants. Housewives can ease the
strain and at the same time save
considerable money by revision OF
their laundry habits, points out
Consumers Union i'm its curren,
issue. Here are the highlights OF
GUS suggestions:
If you launder at home and have
no electric washer, try to organize q
pool among your neighbors so that
all can use the mechanical equipment
owned by one of them, paying ar
appropriate fee for each use of the
equipment.
2. Use things which require no
washing or ironing. You'll be amaz.
ed at the savings you can make. Fo1
instance, it's cheaper to use cleans.
ing tissues than to pay for launder.

cloths. When you buy play clothes.
sport shirts, girls dresses, pajamas.
etc., look for seersucker, crinkle
crepe or cotton knits which need
no ironing.
8. Analyze your laundry bundle
Most families using commercial laun-
dries lost out by sending the entire
bundle at the pound rate instead OF
sending part to a piece rate laundry
Pound rates are economical for light
pieces like handkerchiefs and pillow
cases. But sheets usually cost more
to launder at pound rates than at
piece rates.
