salary increase. IL is doubted that any group of workers in America have had such experience. In midst of the depression Congress reduced the postman's wages through the medium of payless furloughs and outright pay-cuts.
 Those set backs in the early thir- ties were inflicted upon employees who were even then finding it dif- ficult to make ends meet on salary scales established in 1925. Congress did, however, eventually authorize restoration to full-pay scales and abolished the paylesS furlough Many letter carriers still are at tempting to pay off debts accumu- latedd uring that era.

They had reason to believe Congress would grant them similar consider ation. Especially so when It is real i1ed the letter carrier does not re- ceive time and one-half for over time. All work in excess of 40 hours per week is compensation at straight rates of pay, or 85 l-4c per hour.
 Through the A F of |. the letter carriers have joined in a sustained drive to bring about proper mo- diiication of the Little Steel For mula. Nevertheless, the l5 per cent yardstickS revision will not affect postal workers ore iota unless Con sress authorizes remedial lcgisla- tion.
 The letter carrier drive for a pay increase is justifiable. It is the fer vent wish of every letter carrier that the millions of organized work CTS of America will lend assistance in the current campaign calling for permanent $400 increase in the annual salary of letter carriers and other postal employees. A personal letter of endorsement, directed to your Congressmen and Senators, will prove invaluable. Your cooper ation will be deeply appreciated.-- Typographical Union Journal.

 Parents of the Silkauskas boy are held by the Coroner mot without blame" for allowing the boy free use of his rifle. "A firearm is fraught, with danger the finding states, and its unrestricted use by a fifteen year old youth with know ledge of parents was parental de- lection and clearly demonstrates poor judgment and lack of fore sight by the parents
 Text of the finding follows:
 "A group of boys among whom were Matthew H. Peck, age thirteen and John Silkauskas, age fifteen, were members of club with club room located in cellar compart- ment of the latter's family at No. B53 Bank street in the City of Wa terbury. The furnishings of the club consisted only of a table and two chairs. On November 18th, l944, at about 6:30 D. m, the above named boys, together with two other youths pnder 16, were gathered in this eel lar clubroom. Light was furnished by two lighted candles set upon the table. A Winchester 9 short caliber rifle provided with a safety catch was lying on a shelf where the Sil- kauskaS boy, who was its owner, had

Silkauskas took the rifle from the shelf. drew live shell from his pocket and after ex- hibiting it to Peck inserted it into the rifle. handled the safety catch of the gun, pointed the rifle at Peck who was sitting on the lap of another boy less than three feet from it's point and. remarking Peck, prepare to meet your doom or Peck. you are doomed" or some words wherein the word doom" was uttered, pulled the trigger. The rifle discharged bullet which en- tered the left cheek and head of the Peck boy who slumped to the ground. falling with his head against the seat of a chair. Sil- kauskas dropped the rife into a woodpile in back of him and imme- diately attempted to stem the flow of blood from Peck's face and head by applying hand pressure 10 an artery of the neck, at the same time asking one of his companions to call doctor On arrival of the doctor, Peck, who had not regained con- sciouSneSs after the shot, was dead. Death was caused by the bullet wound severing the medulla oblon- gata, carotid artery and jugular vein floor of fourth ventricle and subar- achnoid and intraventricular hem orrhage.
 "Silkauskas stated he believed the safety catch was locked when he pulled the trigger and that the rifle could not fire. It did not appear that any ill feeling or unfriendliness existed between Peck and Silkauskas before the shooting and Silkauskas grief and hysteria after the shoot ing negative any specific intent on his part to shoot Peck.
 "The rifle was given to the youth three days previously by friend Of the family in the presence of and with the knowledge and consent of both parents. It was kept in the house and except for warning oi the parents to be careful, the Sil- kauSkas boy was not restricted in its use. While no criminal reSponsi- bility can be attached to the par ents, they are, nevertheless, no' without blame. A firearm t fraught with danger and Its un. restricted use by fifteen year old youth with knowledge of parent; was parental defection and clearly demonstrates poor judgment anc lack of foresight by the parents,
 T find that said death was caused by an act and under circumstances which in a person beyond the age of sixteen might have been criminal negligence. I find, however. that John Silkauskas was under sixteen years of age at the time of the fatality, to wit, of the age of fif- teen and within the jurisdiction of the Juvenile Court.
