Sub Menace Destroyed

London, May 10 - U.P0 - Bri- tisn official statements revealed to- day that Allied sea and air power have virtually smashed the U-boat menace on the Murmansk convoy route. permitting the delivery of a huge quantity of war material to Russia during the past six months at a loss of less than two per cent of the tonnage involved.
 Despite every effort by Nazi sub- marines and bombers to halt the flow of United Nations aid to Rus Sia. 1,250,000 tons of war equipment and supplies reached the Soviet Union over the Arctic route during that period and 98 of every hundred ships got through safely, an Ad- miralty announcement said.
 Losses of freight from enemy ac- tion and other causes actually amounted to less than 16 tons for every 1000 tons delivered, the Ad- miralty said. At the same time, heavy damage" was inflicted on German forces that made unsuc- cessful attacks on the conveys.
 Prime Minister Winston Church. i'll supplemented the Admiralty statement in Commons, announcing that supplies sent to Russia from Great Britain between October l. i94l, and March 31. 1914, included 5,031 tanks, 6,778 aircraft and $32O,- 100000 worth of other war mater ials.

WAGE INCREASE APPROVED FOR
 U. $. TIME HELP

About 5000 employees of the U. s. Time Corp, (form- erly Waterbury Clack Com pany) will receive wage in- 'creases of two to three cents an hour following today's approval by the New England War Labor Board of an agreement between the com pany and Local 251, C.I.O. Mine, Mill and Shelter Workers Union.
 Approval of the agreement settles a prolonged wage dis pute between the two parties, the union having previously demanded a gen. eral wage increase of 20 cents per hour, plus further increases for maintenance workers. Ovide Garceau, ne- gotiator for local union, to- day stated that in addition to the general wage in creases granted within the contract other standard union demands also were agreed upon.
 Principal clauses of the agree ment provide:
 1. That each production employe in the employ of the company sub Seqrent to January 3, 1943 shall re- ceive retroactive wage adjustment Of 3 1-2 cents per hour for the per- iod from January 3, 1943 to and in- cluding the fourth payroll week after which the War Labor Board approval is formally received. The contract also provides that over time and night shift bonuses ap- plicable to such an increase shall be provided.
 3. Two cents is to be added to all worldly hour rates over 75 cents and three cents If the rate is 75 cents or under. This increase is to com- mence with the fifth week subse- quent to the week within which the VILE approval is received.
 3. All piece-rated job rates shall be readjusted to show an increase in the job rate of two cents an hour said increase to begin with the fifth week after receipt of approval of the WLB's.
 As stated the agreement also pto- vides for such standard union de- mands as maintenance of member ship, automatic check-off and sep aration pay for former employees now in the armed services.
 O. interest :t waS 6t0ted, is the fact that within the agreement the c. I. O. has been recognized as hav- ing plant-wide seniority instead of just departmental seniority.

EIeonorMoy Cor Russia

Pittsburgh, May 10.-(UP)-Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, beginning a day. long jaunt through the Pittsburgh district, said today she had no plans for future overseas trips but indi- cated a desire to visit Russia, If such a trip would be useful" She did not elaborate.
 Asked to comment on challenges as tot he propriety of her Carri- bean trips, Mrs. Roosevelt said in an interview:
 T think the War Department answered the question. The plane that I rode on would have eventu- ally gone to those places. Mail, packages and other articles were carried in the plane.
 "It's just that I was along and they did make a particular route, but the plane would have reached all those places anyway"
 Mrs. Roosevelt said: we were treated as any entertainment group" then added, with a laugh, although I am not entertainment"
 She declined to enter the world wide guessing game as to when the invasion of Europe will begin, and smilingly said mo comment" re- garding another important question whether the President would ruin for a fourth term.

De eVoIero
 Goes Polls Over Defeat

Dublin, May 10.-(UP)-A general election was ordered today in Fire, with the voting probably on May 30, following the one-vote defeat of Prime Minister Ramon de Valera's government on a proposed transport bill, described as a purely domestic issue.
 The leaders of all parties have supported the governments neutral ity policy, emphasizing that the election issues did not concern Fires foreign position which has antagon- ized the Allied governments and brought a virtual blockade of the country.
 Outcome of the election was re- garded uncertain in view of the fact that De Valera's Fianna Fail party won only 67 seats in the Eireann Dail-three less than majority ir the last election on June p, 1943.
 The Labor party picked up 16 seats from the Fianna Fail and the Fine Gail, while the farmers gained six additional seats in previous cleo tions. Observers believed that the gains of these younger parties may precipitate a danger to the Fianna Fail in the new balloting. Defeat of the government by a vote of GA to 63 came last night on a bill, which called for incorpora- tion of the Great Southern railways and the Dublin United Transport company in a new concern.
 All other parties had opposed the government on the grounds that the transport bill should be with held until completion of a court investigation of charges that al- legged leakage of confidential in- formation had resulted in extensive stock exchange speculation.
 The governments defeat resulted from the absence of Finance Min ister Sean T. O'Kelly, who was ill. His vote would have made a tie and the speaker could have cast a vote for the government.
 The general election, announced shortly after the vote in the dail, was opposed by Dr. T. F. OHig- gins, president of the Fine Gall, (Continued on Page 9

STOLF| DENIES
 ILLEGAL VOTING ACCUSATION

The trial of Michael Stolfi on charges of fraudulent vot- ing took a sudden and sur prising turn yesterday after noon when the former select man took the stand to deny that he was the Michael Stolfi made a voter in 1887.
 Earlier in the afternoon, Registrar of Voters Albert O. Taller had read the name of Michael Stolfi, 57 Wood Street, as having appeared on the voting list in 1887 after being furnished his of- flee by the town clerk and selectmen. The application to place the name on the list was signed by Anthony V. Petrillo, and gave the mans age as being 21 in 1882, and said he was born in Penn sylvania.
 As previous testimony had shown that Stolfi did not become a citizen until 1889, this appeared to be dam aging until Atty. John H. Cassidy rose to claim that the Stolfi just read as being born in Pennsylvania, and the accused were not the same person.
 When Stolfi took the stand. Cas- sidy asked, ''Who is the Michael Stolfi who was read here as being born in Pennsylvania"
 "A cousin of mine," Stoln replied.
 And is he here in this court room?"
 "He is.''
 However the court recessed at five o'clock before the defense had an opportunity to call any more witt nesses. It is scheduled to resume be- fore Judge Nathan Raeback of New Haven next Tuesday at Il a. m.
 In answer to categorical ques- tion as to whether he had ever voted fradulently, Stolfi replied. No"
 He said he lived at 118 Hill street, had been in the electrical contract ing business for 15 years; came to this country from Italy at the age of 6, had been made a citizen in the spring of 1889, and had been made a voter the following fall.

New BIowAt Philippines Is Predicted
By SANDOR s. KLEIN United Press Staff COrreSpOndent)


 Washington, May 10-(UP)-The meeting of the three top-ranking Navy commanders on the west coast today foreshadowed new moves of major character in the Japanese war-perhaps a drive to clean the enemy out of the central Pacific and reconquer the Philippines.
 The big three-Admiral Ernest J. King, commander-in-chief of the U. s. fleet, Admiral Chester w. Nimitz Pacific fleet commander, and Admiral William F. Halsey, Jr. south Pacific commander-met in San Francisco. The meeting was ostensibly held only to permit King to present a distinguished service medal awarded by congress to Nirh- itz, but there was little doubt here that it had a more important mo- tive.
 One possibility suggested was that Nimtiz gave King complete flll-in on his recent conference with Gen. Douglas MacArthur-conferences at which they reached complete agree ment on coordinating their respect i've forces in future blows against the Japanese.
 Halsey'S presence in the group was believed to have some connection with new command for him. It already has been revealed that he is to leave his South Pacific com- mand because action has moved out of his area. What new post he will fill is a matter of conjecture.
 Some naval people here point out that Halsey has held a sea com- mand for a longer single period than any of the present Pacific naval chiefs. Hence. they believe he may get some desk job. On the other hand, because of his exper- fence in dealing with the Japanese navy, others believe he will be given another assignment at sea.
 Nimitiz, it was recalled, met King in another west coast conference several months before the American invasion of the Gilbert islands.
