Patterson Urges Tox
 Reductions

James T. Patterson Republican candidate for Congress from the 5th District last night assailed the Washington Democratic admins tration for it's "laxtty and confusing interference" in 6 broadcast over WWCO.
 Patterson charged the adminis- tration with effecting the Unrest between labor and management" in ability to market the normal How of building materials" and failure to enact workable laws for the vet erans."
 Urging governmental economy the COP. candidate said tax reduc- tions in all fields must be effected. We must also reduce wasteful bureaus and departments in Wash ington"
 "All of you have read the story of the boy who called wolf, too often, and finally suffered because people believed it to be a false cry. Let me assure you that the threat of Moscow-dominated Communism is not one to be considered lightly In this country. When the official Moscow radio dares to tell the Am- erican voters that they must sup port candidates indorsed by PAC they must feel that a large seg- ment of our population will take heed"
 Labor and management can and will work together if allowed to do so without interference by numer-

 To DecideOn RuIeC eChonqe

A special meeting of the members of the AFL Carpenters and Joiners Union will be held at 8 tonight at Union Hall, 40 Scovill Street. Pur- pose of the meeting will be to dis cuss proposals that the union relax its standards to permit non-union members to participate in construc- tion of the local veterans housing project.
 As reported here previously, the local project is reportedly delayed because of lack of labor. Materials, the site and funds all are now avail able but federal contractors report to the city they must have 12 car penters immediately and the proS- poets of 12 more within two weeks. Additional plumbers and electri- clans also are necessary.
 Thomas Quinn, union head, told Mayor John s. Monagan he would present the requested proposals to the membership tonight for its vote.
 Other requests include permitting union members to work Saturdays and Sundays without overtime pay ments.

 From United States officials came an equally strong promise to fight the Soviet maneuver-on the grounds that no United Nation can be denied the right to place mat ter before the Assembly.
 Meanwhile, it was learned that Argentina has called a weekend caucus of the 20 Latin American countries to discuss joint policy on matters confronting the six-week Assembly session.

 The Russian answer to that objec- ton previously has been that thu western powers in the Security Council have the votes, and RaSsae needs the veto to equalise her posi- tion.,

MeLevyAsOin Chostizes 
 Candidate for
 Governor Gives
 Outline On Plonks

Mayor Jasper P. McLevy, Socialist candidate for governor in a cam paign broadcast last night assailed the Democratic and Republican parties for their ruthless exploit ation of the public," and outlined the various blanks in the Socialist platform in the state election.
 Charging that the records of the old parties, while in of1ce, has been one of broken prof1ises," McLevy cited some of the things his party has pledged to sponsor.
 First, he said, i've must have an administration of state affairs, marked by sound economies and scientific non-partisan methods.
 McLevy said the Socialists were still tackling the housing group We are opening up hundreds of acres of Virgin territory, by the laying of sewers and other facilities, to make them ready for housing developments for the families of veterans and others. As soon as the bottleneck and the Black Market in building materials, ends, work will be pushed.
 Continuing McLevy said, We stand for legal steps to relieve the economic disasters of unemproy- rnent which are likely to face us again, and to improve working con- ditions for labor and more equitable safeguards for the welfare of the farmer.
 We seek amendment of old age assistance laws on e pension basis, with adequate payments rnanda- tory. We insist that comfortable and modern facilities be provided in every community for the aged and infirm.
 We stand for abolition or re- form of our ancient and expensive methods of county government, reeking with political patronage. We stand for strengthening of the states merit system and for a true civil service and merit system for every city and town.

 striking employees were to meet in Hartford this afternoon in their first barley since union workers began a strike against the Waterbury plant 0f company almost 10 weeks ago Both parties accepted an invitation by State Labor Commissioner John J. Egail to meet with him today. Neither side has been in official contact with the other since the strike began Aug 20. Union em-
 ployes started their strike following
 8 company statement, at a contract negotiating conference, that the firm would no longer recognize Lo-
 cal 25l, International Union ot Mine, Mill 6 Shelter Workers
 CI.O., as bargaining agent for pro-
 duction and maintenance employees
 The company claimed that the union
 does not represent . majority oa
 employees.
 The union has answered with the statement that 1t holds certiflcation from the National Labor Relations Board as bargaining agent follow ing an overwhelming victory in a labor election at the plant.

Elliott to press a fight on this issue. After the case had been brought before the Labor Department at Hartford, the firm was ordered to issue such notices as required by law.
