I've months ago Donna told the

that Donna and her bridegroom

their wedding gift to one an

So quietly were the young

Fitzgerald
 Changes Mind On State Job
Accedes To Persistent Re quests; Becomes Deputy
 Regional Director

Persistent requests by Joseph A. Smith, regional director of the New England War Manpower Commis- sion, caused former Rep. William Fitzgerald, deputy area director of Bridgeport, to change. his mind last week about heading mp a state or- ganizatiOn of the W.M.C. He as- sumed the state position this week with headquarters at l22 Washing ton Street, Hartford.
 Earlier in the week, Fitzgerald stated that he had declined the state
 job and wanted to return to his home in New London where he is the Senate-designated W.M.C. direc- )tor.
 D Tt was true that I had no inten- ton of taking the state job early in the week, but 1 was persuaded to change my mind to the extent of serv- ing as acting deputy regional director to set up new organization for the state" he told THE UNION TIMES this week.
 Fitzgerald will serve as an assistant to Smith III OOnnectlcut. lie will set up an organization to handle most of the state W.M.C. problems that now go to the regional office.
 As such he will be the cO-ordinat- ing director of the various Conn. agencies under the W.M.C. such as the U. s. Employment Service, and war job training organizations, as well as the six city W.M.C. areas and the twelve sub-areas. He will also have liasion connections with the Army, Navy and Selective Serv- ice administrations within the state. "The big job," he declared, lis get all the areas under stabilization pro- grams and to coordinate all pro- grams, in order to reduce labor turn over and secure the fullest use of man. power in war production"
 Connecticut is one of the first states to establish a sub-regional W.M.C. area. This is in line with the new policy of setting up state areas to de- centralize the work of the regional di- rectors throughout the nation.

Job Rumors
 Refuted By
 Teamsters
Brewers Joining No. 443 Will Receive Same Wage
 and Seniority

Approved by Joint Council No. S4. statement was issued today by Local 443, Teamsters Union, denying rumors that when mem bers of the Brewery Workers Union join the Teamsters Union, their pay will be reduced, and that they will lose their jobs.
 When the drivers, helpers and platform men who now belong to the Brewery Workers Union join the Teamsters," the statement said, "these men will be more secure in their jobs than ever before Their rates of pay will be the same, and, for the first time, these workers will have real seniority on their jobs. At present, the system under which they work forces them to compete with permit men, who work for 75 cents an hour, and who, in most cases, are kept out of the Brewery Workers Union for from two to five years.
 "The Teamsters Union has no per- init system. Every member who works under its protection must be book man. Every member is entitled to, and receives the protection of seniority. Members of our union will not work with non-union men, as the Brewery Workers are doing"
 The statement pointed out that in l94I, the Brewery Workers were affiliated with the American Fede- ration of Labor. At that time, the U. s. Supreme Court upheld the AFL, and awarded jurisdiction of drivers, helpers, and platform men to the Teamsters Union. I'm order not to comply with the court deci- sion, the statement said, the Brew cry Workers withdrew from the AFL. "We are willing to debate these issues point by point with official rep resentatives of the Brewery Workers" the statement concluded.

AFL-CIOUnite In New Haven
 On Rollback
Joint Committee Plans City Drive To Reduce Cost
 Of Living

Organized labor i'll New Haven this week discussed plans for a citizens mass meeting on the Green to demon strate the public's feeling on the Ad- mnlstration's promise to roll back prices and thus aid the war program by holding the line on the economic front.
 In line with this objective. the New Haven Central Labor Council at it's last meeting unanimously passed resolution empowering Pres. Harold V. Feinmark to name committee of four to cooperate with the N. H. Industrial Union Council in setting up a A.F.L.-C.I.O. Committee to work for the rOlIback of prices.
 Workers in New Haven as else where are highly concerned with this problem of bringing the cost of living down to the general wage levels. An outstanding example of the peoples interest was demonstrated recently in a petition, bearing the names of sev- eral hundred customers of the New Haven Coop Store, sent to Congress and the O.P.A., asking that real roll back in prices be put into effect.
 Thousands of New Haven work ing people were cheered this week to see that Congress had failed to ride down President RoOseveIt's veto of the bill barring payments for price rollbacks. The presidents statement that the action against subsidies ''blacks out the program to reduce living costs," seemed to have a sObering effect on the na- tiOnal legislators who have been on a reactiOnary spree of late.
 With living costs out of reach of the majority of wage earners and with married men going into the services, not to say anything about the 20 per cent withholding income tax going into effect and further reducing the weekly income of the workers, the question of rolling back prices becomes a most important one in the lives of the wage and small salary earner.

Statistics On Living Costs
 Unacceptable
Union Experts Show That U. s. Figures Give
 Incomplete Facts

WASHINGTON = Some 50 re- search directors of AFL and CIO un- ions met with Bureau of Labor Sta tistics officials this week, it was learned, and challenged them to say publicly what they admitted privately that the Federal cost-of-living in dex has grave weaknesses.
 "We told them that because they hadn't stated publicly that their in- dex was based on consumer prac- tices of 1935-36, now considerably changed, that government officials still were using it as a Bible. We urged changes. Some have been made and we think more will be, '' union officials said.
 A group of the union research spec ialists also met with a committee of the American Statistical Assn, head ed by Dr. Frederick Mills of Colum- bia university, which is conducting an investigation of the Labor Dept. sur vey, its scientific approach and short comings if any.
 The union representatives included James Wishart of the United Auto Workers (CIO); Dr. Lazare Teller of the Intl. Ladies Garment Workers Union (AFL); Florence Thorne of the national AFL office and others.
 The labor officials charged that the U. s. index took no account of greatly deteriorated quality, or the hidden increase in prices. It did not pretend to detect black market prices, usng only legal prices. It did not include any taxes. It sam- pied prices at downtown stores, not in the higher priced outlying stores closer to the homes of war work CTS, and it did not observe different standards of living than those of eight years ago.
 Latest figures released by Sec. of Labor Frances Perkins, showing rise of 1.79o in food prices, increased the total cost of living for city work CTS by 0.8%o. The rise in the month ending March IS was 1.59o, and that of the month ending April IS was 1.1%.
 COst-Of-living index stood at
 I25.l% of the l935-39 average,
 and 24.l % above the January,
 l94l, base date for the Little
