dence ln peOple WHO udu gwen him every opportunity and pro- tected his personal rights, so that he had been able to benefit freely from his financial genius.
 It is surprising that National La Dor Relations Board election can be called for determining the eli- gibility of any certified labor or ganization, when no special request has been filed by an organized group of workers among those they represent. How long since any gen. eral manager or chairman of a board of directors can refuse to bargain with a certified bargaining group, because he personally dis~ likes to deal with that particular group for political reasons?
 Indeed, MT. Avery, not only are greedy, self-seeking industrial kings watching the outcome OA your fiasco, but ancient enemies of the CIO, Independent Unionists, are watching, too, as we jealously guard the free rights of Certified Labor to bargain for and settle grievances for all workers under their jurisdiction!
 The future of our returning he- roes, the hopes we all have pinned upon Post War Planning depend on just and equitable decision in this matter! We are watching and waiting But, because this iS still DEMOCRACY and not what you have suggested, we know RIGHT WILL PREVAIL!
 Rowland Bishop Dear Editor:
 The following was given to me by the person to whom 1t is ad- dressed, MT. T. P. Norton, with the request that l deliver it to you for publication in its entirety. MT. Nor- ton was chairman of a committee made up, I believe, of 1st and End shift workers who sponsored an entertainment at R. E. Fitch High School-preceeds of which ($7O.0O) were given to the New London Chapter of the National Founda- ton for Infantile Paralysis.
 The letter from the treasurer of the chapter tells of the use to which the money will be put-and MT. Norton felt that Electric Boat employees who made possible the donation would be interested in it.
 April 9, 1944 MT. T. F. Norton
 Chairman of Committee
 GrotOn, Conn.
 Dear MT. Norton:
 It is with regret that I have de- layed answering your letter of March 28 The Executive Commit tee of the New London County Chapter. National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, certainly ap- preciate the kindness of your conl- mittee in the donation of seventy dollars. This money is now on de- posit in the National Bank of Conn merce to be used at the judgment of the Executive Committee direct for the care of and relief of cases of infantile paralysis.
 We now have under the care of the Executive Committee two cases of paralysis, both in the Newington Home for Crippled Children-one is a Stonington case, the other a Montville boy. During the last year we sent six doctors to a clinic at Minneapolis, Minn., to study the Kenney treatment. As soon as a child is stricken with this disease doctors and nurses who have had training in the Kenney treatment are at hand to take care of cases at once. At the Newington Home is available every modern equip ment and knowledge for treatment of this dread disease. Boys have been helped after they have re- covered so as to make them self supporting. Much of this relief work is very expensive. One case here at the Mitchell Ward was $7.00 per day. Your money so gen. erously given Is to give relief, cure and assistance to those afflicted also to have at short call, doctors anr nurses trained in the care of these cases.
 If at any time can be of help in informing you further regarding the use of fund please call upon me.
 Sincerely yours,
 (Signed) Alton T. Miner,
