 Experimental Plan
 At Hampton, Va.
 Runs Four Weeks

Hampton, Va, Aug. 29-Because the illiteracy of approximately B. 100000 adult Negroes in this country is considered a root cause of racial maladjustment and discrimination, the first step in a broad attack on the problem is under way at an ex- perimental four week Institute on the Adult Education of Negroes, cur- rently being held here until Sept. 14 at Hampton Institute.
 Use of the Arny's new technique in the instruction of adult Negroes is a main feature of the Institute, and Army representatives are serv- ing as supervisors. The first phase of a comprehensive program to pro- vide sorely-needed teachers and suitable classroom materials for il- literates, the project is jointly spon- sored by the United States Office of Education, Hampton Institute, the American Association for Adult Education and the National Con- ference of Adult Education and the Negro is being financed by a grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
 The Institute is being directed by Dr. Ambrose Caliver, specialist for the higher education of Negroes, United States Office of Educat tion, and the associate director is Will liam M. Cooper, executive secretary

ployers has long been included in proposal to revise the Wagner Act. Many persons desiring changes have emphasized their belief that it is unfair to allow unions to propagan- dize workers without giving en- ployers comparable rights.
 The case marked the first board ruling on the question of employers compelling union members to listen to anti-union talk.
 Election Set Aside
 The CIO brought unfair labor charges in the Clark case and the first election was set aside. In a second election, however, the QUA affiliate won the right to represent the employers.
 The NLRB now has directed the company to cease and desist from interfering with it's employees right to organization It gave the firm 10 days to notify the Buffalo region al NLRB director what steps it has taken to comply with the order.

 Reilly Disagrees
 Gerard D. Reilly, board member who has since resigned. disagreed with Chairman Paul M. Herzog and member John M Houston that the company exerciser superior econo- mis power in coercing its employees to listen to speeches relating to their organizational activities"
 Reilly, on the eve of his resigna- tion, recently called for modifica- tions in the act to allow employers wider use of the right to discuss la bor relations with employees during organizing drives.
 Reilly said he granted the con- pany greater economic power than it's own employees but said it was a mistake to consider that power greater than the strength of "one of the most powerful CIO unions.

 Arguments; Cont
 Force Workers

Washington, Aug. 29-CUP)-The National Labor Relations Board has ruled that an employer may present temperate" anti-union arguments to his employees but may not hold them captive" to listen to what he has to say.
 In it's first explicit ruling on en- ployers' rights under the Wagner Labor Relations Act, the board by a two to one vote found that Clark Brothers, Clean, N. Y, had commit ted unfair labor practices during a bargaining election.
 The reason, the board majority said, was that Clark Brothers had compelled it's employees to assemble at the plant during working time to hear a speech of hostility and op- position to the C.IO."
 Employer May Not Compel
 The bargaining election was be- tween the C.I.O. United Auto Work CTS and the Employees Association of Clark Brothers Co.,, affiliated with the Confederate Unions of America.
 In issuing it's ruling, the board said it has long recognized that the rights guaranteed to employees by the Wagner Act include full free dom to receive aid, advice and in- formation from others concerning those rights and their enjoyment"
 Such freedom is meaningless, however, the board continued, "un- less the employees are also free to determine whether or not to receive such aid, advice and information. ]"
 Specifically the board stated that, standing alone and in the absence of other evidence, the presentation Of an argument by an employer temperate in form and containing no intimidations of reprisal, may not support an inference of coercion" !"
 But, it added, an employer may not seek to influence his employees If he makes them compulsory audience" It said compulsory audience is the same as if a speak CT had physically seized the per-

Dumont, N. Y, Aug. (NEA)- Dr. H. J. Sealey has solved both his housing problem and the question of where and how to vacation, but it cost him $20,00O.
 The $20,000 bought him. a lux urious land cruiser; he'll live in it and travel. Any time he gets bored with one part of the country, he can take off for another.
 Dr. Sealey's cruiser is no ordi- nary trailer For one thing, it weighs seven tons and is powered by six-cylinder, horsepower engine. Top speed is about 75 miles an hour.
 A. R. Perkins, designed of the highway yacht, shot the works when he drew up the specified tions. He didn't miss a trick.

paid Town Clerk Raymond st. John

for the remainder Of the legal year.
Then someone raised a question
about a war veteran, dog or not,
having to pay for a license. 1t came
tc the attention of Mrs. Ford Waul-
feck, office administrator for Serv-
ice for Veterans, Naugatuck. and
she called Edward Kelly, Waterbury

"As If I didn't have enough

proceeded to telephone, Hartford
where, after much delving into
