Bricker Hit
 By CIO Head

Jersey City, Nov. 3-(UP)-R. J. Thomas, president of the United Automobile Workers, CIO, asserted last night that the Republican party has attacked the CIO Political Action Committee because they have TO forces of their own which stand for progress and courageous action"
 Speaking at the Hudson County PAC meeting, he said that Gov. John w. Bricker, whom he charac- terized as "the new Harding of the Old Guard" had left trail "of smearS and lies" in his campaign tour of the west.
 Thomas charged that Bricker had based a claim of Communist dom- ination of the Democratic party on the fact that PAC Chairman Sid- ney Hillman was born in Lithuania, then part of Russia.
 Therefore, according to Bricker logic, Sidney Hillman is Com munist," he added. Therefore, President Roosevelt because Sidney Hillman supports him, is also a Communist"
 Thomas recalled that Bricker told Detroit audience that Hillman, who came to the United States in 1907, went to Moscow and talked with Lenin at the Kremlin.
 Well, publisher Roy Howard of the miserable Scripps Howard newspapers also went to Moscow and talked with Stalin at the Krem- lin" Thomas continued. Roy How ard published his interview with Stalin in all the Scripps- Howard

John McHugh, local real estate agent, in statement this morning on behalf of Republican Congress man Joseph Talbot, said the Nau- gatuck lawyer never once allowed manufacturing concern one inch of advantage over any individual ap- bearing before him, when he (Tal- bot) was compensation commission CT, regardless of the individuals Is color or creed.
 MT. McHugh's statemetnt in full follows:
 The voting public of Waterbury hold a unique position in the 5tfl Congressional District, Lecause one third of the full voting strength of the district resides in Waterbury Therefore, voters of Waterbury should be held accountable, and will be, for who is elected to represent and administer our affairs in Con- gress for the next two years. Un- fortunately, all voters are not aware of the seriousness of having the proper representative in Con- greSs.
 We are living in the manufactur- ing center for a great many articles used throughout the whole world the prime reason which makes Waterbury healthy, thriving, prosperous place to live in. To keep Waterbury equal to our standard or living, we all should be serious in our selection on election day of congressman for this district, and as near unanimously as possible, as & token of gratitude for his excel lent administration of our affairs for the past three years, elect Jos eph E. Talbot of Naugatuck for the next two years.
 To those people who just vote on election day to just exercise their franchise, let me state plainly, we need Talbot to watch our affairs. We need man there that will see that the manufacturing of articles that we derive our living by will not be regimented to other sections of the country through rubber stamp congressman if they get foothold in congress.
 We need Talbot because of his eX- perience, because of his faculty of fighting for the interest of every body in the Fifth District, and not for a few who believe they have dictatorial ability to make you vote the way they want to for their own selfish interests.
 Talbot is the workingman's friend, but not the friend Of the potential dictators who are trying to hoodwink the members of un- ions who in a careless moment al- lowed these Communistic-minde elements to associate with them or join their unions.
 Talbot is friend of every G. |. Joe in the service from this district or elsewhere, and is a friend of their Mothers, Dads, Brothers, Sis- ters and Sweethearts, which can be attested to by many of them.
 The elements trying to fruStrate his reelection by derogatory re- marks would dare to tell you, if they had the nerve, that he was a manr- facturers' stooge and on their pay-

 Meanwhile, Democratic leader: jubiliantly welcomed an announce ment by U. s. Senator David I Walsh, D., Mass, that he had &C., cepted the presidents personal in- vitation to join him on his political trip at Worcester.
 Shortly after his scheduled radio broadcast had been cancelled, Walsh disclosed last night that he would support the Democratic state ticket and would accompany the president Walsh's radio time was taken by former U. s. Representative Joseph E. Casey with no reason given for the last-minute shift in plans.
 Walsh's announcement that he would not support the Democratic state ticket climaxed an intra-party controversy which started last July when U. s. Representative John w. Mccormack was chosen over Mass achusetts' Senior senator to head the states delegation to the Demo- cratic National Convention at Chi cago.

 Attorney Blansf1eld charged that the city "was attempting to stall the action by raising the ques- tion of jurisdiction. He said the city had several weeks time in which plea for lack of jurisdiction. but that it failed to do so and now raised the question when the plain tiffs were already asking a judg- ment for failure of the city to plead.
 Judge Munger, who reserved de- cision, said the court has duty to dismiss any case in which it lacks jurisdiction and may do so at any time. He said he would study the issue involved.
 The petitioners complaint states they entered into contract to buy a Highland avenue land for use as a gasoline station and placed a deposit and then applied for a license for a garage and service station. When they applied for a certificate of approval from the mayor, in accordance with require ments, it was denied. and they claim no reason was given.
 They claim the property is suit able for maintenance of a gasoline and service station Mayor Mona gan in his decision stated briefly that the site was not suitable for the purpose and that he denied the application.

The question of jurisdiction was raised by the city when Attorney Michael V. Blansfield, counsel for Michael DeNicola ar John Franz. asked for a judgment against the city on the ground no pleadings were entered. The city attorney stat ed only common pleas court has jur- isdiction on appeals taken from de- cisions of municipal authorities, and moved for dismissal of the case.
 The two plaintiffs, who were de- nied permit to set up gasoline and service station at 614 Highland avenue, at the corner of Rosemount avenue, claim the mayors denial was illegal, unreasonable, and arr bitrary' and that 1t was "so un- reasonable as to be an abuse of dis cretion."
 They further make charge of "class legislation" against the stat utes under which Mayor Monagan acted on their application. Their complaint states "the delegation of power to the mayor and his assump-
