 Valueless Offer
 The union contends that a com paIly wage offer in March was val iseless because an l84 cent hourly pay boost was made contingent on five conditions. During the negotia- tons which broke down T'.esday the C.I!O. claims. the company pro- posed that workers return to their jobs at the old pay rates, with an 1ek cent increase to be paid only l when the O.P.A. granted a com pensating increase in brass prices. At Kenosha. A.F.L.-organized em- ployes, who did not take part in the strike against A.B.C.. voted to &C., cept a management offer of an 1872 cent increase, effective back to April 1. It is the claim of the C1.O. that this offer was not subject to the conditions attached to the Connec- &icut offer.
 The copper situation was a bit emproved today, as the result of a vote by smelter and refinery work CTS in Montana not tc join in a strike begun Tuesday by copper miners against the Anaconda Cop per Mining Company. Retroactivity on an 1eA cent pay boost is the principal Issue in the strike now un- der way ct Butte. Anaconda is the parent concern of A.B.C.

 Decided Difference
 Judge Quinlan said that to him and to the people of Waterbury "lt seems to make a decided diff ference how this matter is ap- preached"
 He said the case was one which could properly so on reservation to the State Supreme Court of Errors whichever party lost would appeal anyway, but he took cog nizance that the htigants would not be able to make the necessary agreements which are necessary for such procedure.
 The comments came during @ hearing at which Attorney William B. Fitzgerald, as special counsel for the city, charged that granting of motion for a temporary injunc- ton would have the same effect as granting of the permanent injunc- tioil sought in the main action. He argued that the issues of the case should be tried before the question of law, raised by the injunction rec Quesct, were decided.
 Following the denial by the court of e plaintiffs motion to strike the city's demurrer from the records Attorney William B. Fitzgerald special counsel for the city, read ci- tations to sustain the demurrer.
 He said granting of the injunction would put the city in a state of "fi- nancial chaos" He pointed out all work on tax bills would have to stop He said all persons who avail them- selves of discount by paying the two installments of the tax at the same time would lose.
 Pecunlary Aspect
 He pointed to the size of the Grand List and the amount of taxes involved and asked the court to take cognizance of the pecuniary aspect of the matter.
 Fitzgerald pointed to requirements that a bond must be filed with a motion for Q temporary injunction to offset any possible damages which might result. He argued the plaintiffs could not file a bond that would have a reasonable relation ship to the amount of taxes involv- cd.
 The cityS special attorney said the plaintiffs have other adequate relief at law. He said taxpayers can appeal to Common Pleas Court from the Board of Tax Review or file a tax petition. They can also pay their taxes under protest pending settle rlent of the Issue by the legal chan nels, he said.
 Fitzgerald raised the question of whether the Superior Court should substitute for Common Pleas Court, where tax appeals and petitions can be filed.
 Lengthy citations from Supreme Court decisions were offered by the city.
 During one part of the hearing, Judge Quinlan pointed out he had once been counsel for a city in a tax suit, and that he would be glad to disQualify himself, If the parties wanted him to. He added, however he did not feel that was sufficient grounds for disqualification.
