Hartford C.L.U.
Endorses Ward
And O'Conn1or

The Hartford Central Labor
Union at its last meeting over
whelmingly endorsed the candi-
dacies Of Mayor Dennis P.
O'Connor and Alderman Patrick
J. Ward.
The action which was un.
precedented for the C.L.U.
follows a similar action taken
by United Labor Legislative
Committee of Hartford which
earlier i'm the week endorsed
both men.
Opposition developed to the resolu-
ton, introduced by Joseph Lombard
an ALL. representative on the Elk
ecutive Board of the Public Affairs
Committee. This opposition was lead
by Frank Morris, secretary of the
CL.U. who contended that Labor
should not go out on limb to en-
dorse any party, but should stand or
its own platform" and support to the
fullest extent any and all candidates
or the party-without formal endorse
ment-who supported labor detectives.
Herbert A. Miller, Local $50,
Transfers, under the item of new
business moved that the C.L.U. con-
cur in the recommendation of the
Joint Labor Public Affairs Commit
tee, and endorse O'COnnor and
Ward.
Henry Dauphinais, an Executive
Board member of the Joint-Labor
group and a member of Local $50
seconded the motion.
A spirited discussion followed,
but the proponents of the resOlu-
ton were prepared, for they had
lined up the majority of the dele
gates attending the meeting for the
motion.
1t was pointed that Joint-Labor
Committee had endorsed Ward and
O'Connor, not as members of the
Democratic Party but on the basis
of their labor records.
Ward is C.l.O. co-Cha1rman OF
Joint Committee. 1t was through the
efforts of the Committee that he was
elected Alderman-at-Large to succeed
Frank M. Heavey
After the vote, the following
C.L.U. delegates asked to be re-
corded in opposition to the action:
Vice-Presidents John Miller, Bus
Drivers, and Thomas Carrard,
LAM, Paul Willnaur, Steamfitters,
a trustee, and George Watson,
BrickIayers, an Executive Board
member.
Sen. William A. Scott, president
remained strictly neutral in the con-
troversy. He reported as delegate
to the ALL. convention and to the
State Labor O.P.A meeting in New
Haven.

vey by the National Industrial
Conference Board show.
Investigation included lac
plants, the Board said Of these
nearly 500 stated without quail
hcation that the production rec
ord of their women employees was
as good or better than that Of
men engaged in similar or identi-
cal work.
An additional nine plants report
ed that, while women's production
was below that of men on some
types of work, it was fully the equal
of that of men on other jobs. Eight
stated that women were unable to
equal the men ON some jobs, but
were fully as good on others, and
exceeded them on still others. Six
said that the output of women in
some types of work was lower than
that of men, but greater on other
kinds of work.
Some IS plants went on record fiat
ly that the production of women was
equal to that of men, while four, all
manufacturers of machines and tools
or metal products, asserted as tiatly
that women were better producers.
In SO plants, approximately one
fourth of the number reporting,
women on mems jobs are prOduc-
ing less than men. In some in
stances executives explained that
the women were producing less,
probably because they were just
starting at the work, but their out
put was expected to equal mems
after they had acquired more ex-
perience and skill.
Many executives explained that wo-
mems production records depend on
the type of work. where mechan-

tive of an electrical products company
remarked, "women's production is
comparable to that of men. Where
technical skill also is required, women
are not up to men,"
