Cheering to bullish forces was a

for independent motors and further
strength of peace-rated securities

Trends were a shade mixed after

 Government Refused OfEsE
 By the time the whig conyela. ton in Baltimore was underway. May 1, 1844, the line had been com~ pleted from washington to Ar- napolis Junction, halfway to Baltis more. Vail brought the news q Henry Clay's nomination to AA- napolis Junction and wired it tg washington. The delegates re- turned to Washington only to dis cover that the Capital had already heard the news.
 On May 4, a skeptical public be. came an enthusiastic audience and after Morse had sent the key nles- sage, What Hath God Wrought, ( from the Capitol, he and Vail kept up an exchange of news comment for the benefit of the specators. Several days later the line was opened for the public use.
 Morse offered his telegraph M the government for $100,000, but the offer was refused and the orig inal line between Washington and Baltimore was taken over by West ern Union Telegraph Co, in 1868.
 Morse's original invention was the starting point for later iIive1- tions that further revolutionized the world of communication, the radio. cable and teletype.

Waterbury is to be one of the air- ports envisioned by Henry Kaiser for the postwar era in which the famed builder foresees a private plane terminal near each of the 36 cities of 2,500 and more population in Connecticut.
 Plans call for the location of seven of these terminals in the Hartford county district, ten in the New Ha- ven county, six in Fairfield, two in Holland and two in Litchfleld.
 Plans for a Waterbury airport are already deep in consideration on the part of local officials. The city's plan commission, 1t is reported have given considerable attention to the matter and have already chosen suitable sites.

P.&A. PETITION
 FORWARDED WLB
No Reply From Latter Re- ceived on RowbOttOm
 Mig. Co. Ruling

A formal petition to the National Labor Re sions Board was this morning forwarded by Ovide Gar ceau of the c. I. O. requesting the right to hold election among em- ployes of the Plume and Atwood Company to determine whether or not the CIO was to be the bargain ing agent for the employees.
 Claiming at least 80 per cent sign- ed up among the employees the union has appealed to the board to determine the matter after what they stated was the refusal of the management to give credence to their majority claim. CIO officials stated that approximately 265 of the company's 305 employees had signed signifying their desire to have the union act as their bargain ing agent in contract negotiations with the management.
 No reply has been received to a recent telegram forwarded by the local CIO to National Labor Re- lations Board relative to the ruling by the War Labor Board authoriz- ing an cents an hour increase to employees of the Rowbottom Manu- featuring Company, increase to be retroactive to October 1942.
 Unon officials today stated they had sent the telegram last week to the chairman of the wage division in, Washington because of the lack of final authorization by the board on the matter which was first opened for negotiations in October, 1922.
