 We ask you once again: Does this not mean that you are opposed to slum clearance and low-cost public housing for those who cannot afford to pay $40 to $60 a month in rent, even if such rents were available? Men who have worked hard all their lives are now retiring at the age of 65, with a Social Security retirement allowance of about $8O a month for themselves and their wives. Do you think they can affard to pay $40 for rent? Under Connecticut statutes, the needy aged, at 65, may receive from the state a maximum of $40 month plus medi- cal care. Can they afford to pay $40 for rent, if rents were available? Is the real estate industry prepared. to provide decent housing for these peo- pie?

States s Beauty Shop Workers To Get Increase
Recommended Hike Is First Rise In Minimum Wages
 Since 1941

State Labor Commissioner John ]. Egan has announced his acceptance of the Recommendations of the Third Beauty Shop Wage Board. The Board was convened by Deputy Labor Com sioner William c. Ennis on Septem- Der g to reconsider the wages set for employees in the beauty shops, in Con- necticut effective March 5, 1941.
 Comparison of the provisions of the l94l Beauty Shop Wage Order and the highlights of the Recon. mendations of the present Wage Board are as follows: Three year operators $28 a week compared to SIS under the l94l order; two year operators and clerks $25 against $l5.5O; and one year operators $22 against $14.5O.
 The new recommendations also pro- vide for the payment of 70 cents an hour for less than B hours to maids cleaners and porters, and from g tc A hours inclusive, $22 a week. This compares to 40 cents an hour for less than 371a hours, and from 37N to 4o hours, inclusive. SIS a week.
 The new recommendations like. wise provide for the payment of $5.5O day for part-time operators and clerks, while the 194l Wage Order calls for $3; overtime pay. ment of $1 an hour for operators and clerks, against 60 cents; and overtime payment of 75 cents an hour after A hours for maids. cleaners and porters, against AS cents an hour after 48 hours.

The Reader
 Has the Floor

To the Editor, THE UNION TIMES: Three cheers! In your issue today (Nov. 23) I am delighted to read from Pres. Paul Schwarz, ATM Lo- cal 161 in Washington, Tt is our locals policy to see that women musi- clans get as much work as the men do".
 Sad to say, such fair play is impos- sible in Connecticut. Here women musicians in great numbers have been thrown out of work by the Connecti- cut law forbidding women to work after 10 P. Ma law which treats adults as if they were children.
 It smacks of the old days when working men were treated as children by their employers.

Hope To Save New Deal Legislation

Progressives in Washington took heart over the weekend with news of Dec. 2 meeting of Democratic COngressmen called to discuss a liberal program for the Both Con- gress.
 The leaders in this drive are Senators James Murray (Mont.) , Claude Pepper (Fla. Glen H. Tay- Tor (Ida.), and Representatives Adolph Sabath (Ill.), and Herman Eberharter (Pa.).
 One of the purposes of the meeting will be, to organize solid support for the Democratic leadership posts in the Senate and House. Sen Alberl Barkley (Ky.) will be choice for the Senate minority position and Rep. John Mccormack (Mass.) for the House in the event that present Speaker Sam Rayburn declines to serve in the new minority post.
 REPORT DUE DEC. Is
 The group will be watching the report of the Presidential committee appointed under the provisions of the Full Employment Bill, due Dec. IS. They hope to implement that report to the fullest possible extent.
 Their call refers to 'sthe need of legislative program that will earn the enthusiastic support of veterans, independent business, white collar, and farm and labor groups.'
 Referring to COP meetings of the past two weeks, the invitation said: ssThe negative and contradic- tory character of Republican lead- ership becomes more clear every day -. There is no basis for de- featism in the ranks of liberal Democracy"
 There is no reference, however, to the need for any defensive action to save New Deal legislation which the Republicans will undoubtedly attempt to emasculate. A spokesman for the group said their fervent hope is that President Truman will take heart from this meeting and determine to preserve the gains of the Roosevelt years by use of the veto whenever necessary.
 TRUMAN'S DUTY
 It is their hope, he said, that the President will continue to point out to the people the continued need for social legislation.
 Among the Senators invited are:

During this semester the per-

we have had many changes in
our faculty the scholarship was
comparatively good. One of the
most detrimental things with
which we had to contend with
is our crowded condition. 1t has
been necessary to deprive the
teachers of a room, and also we
have had to dispense with a
music room. Our lunch room is
crowded beyond it's capacity, and
even then it is necessary for us
to use a room in some of the
neighboring buildings.
