U.E. A ppeol VerdictSIow

Hartford, June 2 Deci- sion in the petition of the C.I.O. United Electrical Union for a Fed eral injunction restraining State and West Hartford authorities from interfering with picketing activities in the Niles-Bement-Pond Com pany strike, may not be handed down for at least month, 1t was indicated today.
 Judge J. Joseph Smith, after listening to closing arguments by the union and State, gave counsel two weeks in which to file briefs, and an additional two weeks in which to submit replies to each others briefs.
 Against union claims that au- thorities had interfered with the rights of free speech and assembly, the State countered that the union overstepped itself in extending the picketing to the homes of workers. Witnesses testified that not only were their homes patrolled but the union made it physically impossible for them to enter the factory gates without causing injury to the pick cts.
 The union diSclaimed any acts of violence in connection with the picketing and challenged a joint or- der of Gov. R. E. Baldwin and State Police Commissioner Edward J. Hickey declaring home picketing illegal, and limiting the number of pickets at the factory gates.

King sLeopoId Dealt Blow

Brussels, June 27-(UP)-The Belgian government dealt Q sting ing blow to the exiled King Leo- pold today and ruled unconstitu- tionla 8 proposal that a special corn- mittee be appointed to examine the kings present status quo and war; time responsibilities.
 "If the king has communications to the make to the government 1t considers the government alone competent to receive them and as- sume responsibility for taking what ever decision is considered neceS-- sary," an official statement said.
 The reference plainly was to the fact that Leopold's secretary had notified the speakers of both houses of Parliament that Leopold was will ling to acceSt their May IS pro- posal to appoint a special commit. tee to examine the royal question.
 The statement said @ decision was reached that the government alone was competent to study thu royal issue. It concluded that { proposal to examine at the samt time the kings attitude, together with that of the government, be- tween 1940 and l945 was unconsti. tutional.

Hartford, June 27- (UP) Two natureopathic physicians won their fight today to practice in Connecti- cut, despite charges that the Slate Board of Natureopathic Examiners has been conducting a racket" in admitting such practitioners.
