Senate Rejects Unequal Rights For Women iIl Bill

Washington (LPA) - The "un- equal rights for women" amendment to the Constitution was again stopped in the Senate last week by vote of 38 to s. The measure, strongly op- posed by the unions, is equally strongly supported by the political descendants of the suffragettes,-the American Womens' Party-and by organizations of women lawyers, doctors, and pro- fessional women.
 The amendment, its opponents charge, would wipe out all protective legislation covering women workers traditionally underpaid and badly treated by industry. Minimum wage and other protective legislation, Sen. Robert F. Wagner O., N. Y.) pointed out in the floor debate on the amend ment, "to the legion of women who toll in mill and factory, store and laundry {. has provided essential aid in overcoming the many handicaps that beset them, and in achieving true equality with men in bargaining posi- ton. To these working women and to the country at large, this legislation has proved its worth"

Catholic Cal Clergy In Hartford For

Diocesan Labor Institute Survey Shows Young Priests Favor Or
 ganization

A survey of the junior clergy in the Hartford Diocese, conducted by its Labor Institute under the direction of Father Joseph F. Donnelly, indicates a distinctly pro-labor trend.
 Writing in the American EccleSiGS- tical Reviezg, Father Donnelly de scribed the feelings on labor held by the young priests who for four years after ordination serve in a junior capacity during which time, they are examined on ecclesiastical subjects be- fore they become full-fedged priests
 In answer to the question, "Are workingmen morally obliged to join a union," the answer was overwhe1m- ingly yes. Typical response was Ger tainly all those who enjoy benefits gained by a union are obliged to join and protect the welfare of themselves and others

AF .'F'f.t|'& &ft -'ei''-'ft' -i Scores. Arrest Of
 .5'i.ftffts i4n's N. Niles Picketer;s'; 5;

The actions of Governor Bald win and State Police Commis- sioner Edward J. Hickey in re- stricting picketing at the Niles Bement-Pond Company West Hartford plant May B and out lawing the picketing of private homes constitute "a clear ex- ample of government by execu- tive fiat"
 This was the contention of the Connecticut Federation of Labor, AFL, submitted last week as a friend of the court in the Federal Court suit of United Electrical, CIO workers for an injunction against the state officials.
 As such, the brief, prepared by Attorney William s. Gordon, IT,, continues, ''they constitute a pre- cedent which if continued or ex- tended will endanger the entire structure of our democratic form of government, based upon the di- vision of powers, with its cOnstitu- tiOnal safeguards and guarantees.
 "The defendants have arbitrarily and capriciously usurped the functions of the legislative and judicial depart ments of the state government They have on their own motion declared certain things to be unlawful and they have caused the arrest of persons who have not complied with their edicts.
 ARBITRARY ACTION
 "They have under the color of their authority issued injunctions restrain ing acts which not even the courts are empowered to restrain; and they have issued such injunctions exparte, with out notice, without hearing, without receiving and weighing testimony, without findings of fact, in a manner in which not even the courts are per- nlitted to act"
 Fears sWhims' of Governor
 The brief contends that the consti- ttitional liberties of speech and of the press may not be entrusted to the whims of the Governor and the police officers" in discussing issues of the case. It concludes:
 'sWhile the Connecticut Federa- tion of Labor is not a party in the case at bar, it has a grave and substantial interest i'm its outcome. For if government by executive fiat is 10 be permitted i'm West Hart ford, it may we'll be the rule throughout the state of COnnecti- cut.

 Tt is submitted that it is not for the Governor and the police to legis- 1ate-it is not for them to prescribe the terms and conditions under which the liberties guaranteed under the Fourteenth Amendment are to be ex- ercised. Nor is it for them to adjudi- cate, or to interpret the laws.
