Hartford unionist who rented an apartment over the telephone. Al though he had no. children at the time an early visit of the stork was ex- pected, and for that reason he and his wife were anxious to get settled When the landlord noticed the con dition of the expectant mother, he told the prospective tenants that someone else had taken the place. It remained empty for four months afterwards.
 Harold Barker, business agent of the Carpenters District Council of the Bridgeport area and a mem Der of the Bridgeport Housing Au- thority. related that he had been forced to live in hastily-cOnstructed house for three years when land- lords had refused to rent to him be- cause there were children in the family. -,
 ssThe plight of a family with chil- dren seeking a rent is 10 times worse than that of family with a dog. Kids are taboo with a lot ot landlords who keep, or permit dogs to be kept, in the house." asserted Barker.
 Herewith are presented some Of the opinions by the persons inter- viewed:
 John J. Egan, secretGry-treasuT- CT of the Conn. Federation Ot Ld- Dor:
 q am very definitely opposed to this practice, and I have always op- posed it. It's a rank injustice to the families of workers. Public condemna- ton against it cannot be too strong. The people who perpetrate 1t should be exposed and ashamed. A bill in the legislature might help to focus public attention on it and to dis courage it."
 John J. Allen, secretary-treGsMr- CT of Local 443, Teamsters:
 ''My opinion of this type of land- lord is not printable. l feel that the practice should be outlawed. It is how people who other wise behave as patriotic citizens can perpetrate such practice"
 Sen. William 4. Scott, president of the HartfOrd Central Labor Un- ion, rice-president of the Hartford Housing Authority:
 q can't express my contempt for a man who refuses to rent to tenants with children. 1. I'd like to see some thing done about this vicious practice. We in the Housing Authority are against this sort of thing and we prac- tice what we preach. In Charter Oak Terrace there are more children per square foot than in any other resi- dentia1 part of the city,"

Landlords May Be Stopped From
 Discriminating Against Children

Joseph 7. CrOnin, co-chairman Of the Hartford Labor Public A. tairs Committee, delegate to the C.L.U. from Aircratt Lodge TAB, Machinists: ''I am definitely in fa- vOr of some form of legislation to correct this evil. It took my wife and me almost a year to find a place to live in Hartford. Three fOurths of the suitable places we tried to rent were denied to us be- cause we have children
 Dr. Willard Uphaus, esecutiUe- secretary Of the National Religion and Labor Foundation, delegate to Ne'U HaUen Central Labor Council from Local 2O4, Teachers Union:
 My sympathies are all with the children. They are part of society. You can quote me as saying that I am for providing the fullest and rich est life of children. Lets put children tlrst and property afterwards"
 Samuel F. Curry, business agent Ot DiU. 28I, Ne,O HaUen Trolley men:
 T don't think landlords have the right to bar tenants because they have children. They certain have no moral right. It is bad racket"
 Herbert A. Miller. business agent Of Local 559, Hartford Teansters:
 Il think that any landlord who won't rent his property because ten- ants have children is definitely in- human and is sabotaging the war effort. This practice leads to wasted rooms. Just the other night I noticed this advertisement in the newspaper: 8 rooms-no children mo boarding house-keepers need apply l think a committee should be appointed by the Gov ernOr to look into this practice in every city and work to eliminate it.''
 Edmund PeresIuha. president Aircraft Lodge 743, LAM:
 People have the right to raise chil- dren. I own my home. If I was going to rent it, I would not be op- posed to children. I remember that my father and our family were dis criminated against by landlords. would like to see legislation that would completely eliminate discrimi- nation against parents of growing girls and boys.''
 Peter Benard, president of the Bridgeport C.L.U.: "I am 100 per cent against discriminating against children by denying them place to live. Parents, however, should be held strictly accountable for any damage done to living quarters. Why pick on the innocent kids for the fault of their parents. This practice should be broken up.''

Green Urges Fight
Continued from Page One)

We will oppose all members of Congress who cast their ballots for the Smith-Connally bill with every political and economic power we pos sess," Green proclaimed.
 Page of Shame
 Six million members of the A. F. of L. have been penalized and insulted by this action of Congress, which wrote page of shame for the party in control of the government of the United States
 Green made a ringing plea to un- ionists and all other progressives to "get ready for the fight in 1914" and to organize at once for the elimina- tion of all the Smith Conna1ly bill supporters.
 Let the Congressman know that labor never forgets," he said. Let them know they are going to be de- feated if the laboring man has it in his power to do it. Many of these Senators and Representatives will never go back to Washington"
 All Groups United
 A similar position has already beer taken by Chairman T. C. Cashen ol the Railway Labor Executives Asso- ciation and President Philip Murray of the C.I.O.
 Thus all branches of organized labor are united on the prOposi- ton that the solons who sought to clamp a straitjacket on labor must be forced out of office.

Statistical Company
 Sees Great Demand

Industrial plant construction work during the ten years following the war will be about 30 per cent greater than during the decade preceding the war, according to report by the F. w. Dodge Corpora ton.
 The expected increase, the re- port says, will take place despite the tremendous war plant con- struction program of the past three years and despite the antlcl- pated surplus-plant problem ot the postwar era.
 The anticipated increase is based upon the accumulated demands of civilian goods industries such as food products, paper and pulp, printing and publishing, stone, glass and clay products, textiles, refriger- ators and cold storage, lumber and WOOO WOEk11lSs ACdtAACA oAAA working, railroad shops, etc.
 Tn spite of greatly increased de- mands for their products, this group . of non-war industries has shown a declining volume of new plant con- struction since October, 194l, when first restrictions were placed on non essential civilian construction, the re- port says.
 Furthermore, since the demand for consumer goods, here and abroad, is more than. likely to be overwhelmingly greater in the postwar years than ever before ln our history. it is safe to conclude that there will be great demand for construction of nOn-war plants.
 The study also points out that ma chine tools and machinery will be needed in the postwar period tor reconverting war plants to peacetlme production, for making new models and new products, for replacement of machines which are now rapidly wear ing out through overtime operation \ and lack of adequate maintenance, and to meet urgent reconstruction demands of foreign countries.
 To meet these demands, it is es- timated that the United States out put of processing fabricating ma chinery might average in the first ten postwar years 35 to 40 per cent more, in 194O dollars, than in the pre-war decade l93O-l939.

(OOllluIuCQ 1IOIII I age OIlG ed gratis an animated cartoon to help explain the point rationing system, thus depriving some deserving pro- ducer of a cost-p1us deal. The film was much simpler in technique than the standard Hollywood cartoon, and yet was bright and gave a clear ex- position of a complicated subject. This may be the rub rather than the mere loss of 13o margin on a payroll now and then. Suppose the discovery is made that effective cartoons could be turned out for one-third to one-tenth present costs!
 For example, Canada has a car tOOn genius named Norman Mac Claren who makes an entire picture singIe-handed, drawing directly on the film. His pictures are primitive by Hollywood standards, but very lively and amusing. No American company has shown any interest in releasing them.

Stores Receive Code
WPB Weapon Against
Rationing Of Clothes
Declaration Of Policy
Dooms All Scarcity
SoIesmonship
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A wartime code of selling prac-
tees, aimed as discouraging ex-
cess buying and thus heading off
the rationing of clothes, was laid
down for textile dealers today
by Chairman Donald M. Nelson
of the War Production Board.
The declaration of policy dooms
for the duration all scarcity ad-
vertising and such remarks by store
clerks as. "You haG better buy sew
eral of these-we may not get any
more"
Even the me-honored price COM
parison appeal-"our price, $685.;
regularly S895"-must be eliminated
from advertising unless the sale is
genuine clearance, and the word
sale" must be stunned The only
permitted price comparison is with
the Government ceiling.
The code was worked out with
representatives of large and small
retailers by Arthur D. Whiteside,
director of WIPES Office of Civilian
Requirements.
This Is the most important and
broadest step in individual COM
mercial self-regulation ever at
tempted in this country" Mr.. White
side declared in kilograms to mer-
chants organizations.
The Government will not police
stores for enforcement. Compliance
