(Continued from Page D she bought for 9s cents in 1889. I told her that imitation wasn't your fault.
 She said she knew that. She got out that bone the man had sold her for our Sunday dinner. I told her that you OPA gents recommended that housewives in such cases de- mand their money back.
 TickIish Situation
 That's when she blew up. She said the meat counters in our neigh borhood displayed nothing but bloody chunks of COW such as neither she nor the butchers could identify. She said it was case of buying the piece of meat the clerk handed you, or never attempting to do business with him again.
 But the ceiling prices, mean. Her laughter approached the hys- terical. She said, price fixers, she believed you should interview Mrs. Bowles. Mrs. Snyder and Mrs. Por- ter.
 Then gentlemen. sine displayed the oranges she'd bought. They were little ones, considerably smaller than tennis balls. They cost her TO cents a dozen. The $l.20 oranges were much better. she admitted, but what woman in her right mind (she asked) would spend ten cents each for oranges? Ceiling price or not?
 Disappointed in Contents
 She said that the grocers' shelves were filled with new brands of everything from salmon to spa- ghetti. Each package and can bears It's official price tag. she said, but what good is that when the con. tents almost invariably prove to be a grave disappointment?
 So we had for dinner, in addition to those odd-looking peaches, some fresh vegetables, which my bride said I should eat slowly in oI,aer to get my moneys worth from each bite, and some strange. white-col- ored cheese, with a red rind.

approve the U. s. Time contract. He assailed the lack of an arbitra- ton clause, and said there was no assurance as to the method of ap- plying the 1872 cent increase to the earnings of piece workers.
 Galullo claimed the contract to be "the best yet negotiated in the valley" He said it provided for maintenance of union membership, a 21-cent increase in the hourly miTl- mum to 76 cents for new employees, seniority gains and other benefits.
 Under Galullos plan the U. S. Time unit of the union will leave Local 25l, oldest M.M.S.W, organ ization in the area, and operate in- dependently. He will ask the unit to vote in favor of this plan at the referendum.

 FIve-POint Program Urged
 They urged Congress to;
 i.-EXTEND THE PRICE Con- trol Act by May IS lat the latest and without "crippling ainend- ments which are now being pro- posed almost daily"
 CThe House Is expected to act within two weeks on a bill to ex. tend the Price Control Act an- other year. The measure, as ap- proved by the Banking Commit tee, contains SO many new limi- tations on OPA that Administra- ton leaders said 1t would raise living costs another $500,000, 900 a year. Attempts to write in still further limitations were expected on the foo0.
 ?. - CONTINUE PRES ENT FOOD subsidies to avoid sharp increase in food prices.
 B. EXTEND THE SECOND War Powers Act beyond its pres- ent June 30 expiration so the Government can prevent hoard- ing of materials critically needed in production of clothing and housing.
 4.-QUICKLY ADOPT the Pat man Housing Bill because uncon- trolled real estate imitation is "a serious threat not only to rent controls, but to the entire stabili- zation program"
 5.-vOTE THE STABIL1zA- TON agencies adequate" funds to enforce regulations and enable the agencies to handle their work loads speedily.
 Have Presidents Warning
 The Administration is also fight ing against a strong Congressiona drive to raise farm prices by writ ing farm labor costs into the for mula for determining parity. Presi dent Truman has warned he vii veto any bill which increases parit. in that fashion.
 The Senate nevertheless included such provision in it's bill to rais the statutory minimum wage an' farm state Congressmen believed tn House would follow suit. Hous Republicans are threatening to hool similar rider on the OPA exten sion law in the belief 1t would b safe from a veto there.
 The five officials said 1t was thei "earnest hope" that the danger o a severe imitation will have passe, by the middle of l947 If all zoe well during the next year"
 Tn the meantime, they said. con trols should be removed graduall wherever and whenever 1t is safe t do so. They predicted that by Jun 30, l947. only rent controls an some last remnants" of control i

 States Attorney Present
 States Attorney William B. Fitz- gerald and Assistant States At- torney Walter W. Smyth were on hand to answer any questions the board would place and to summar. ize the case.
 The defense, in Its application to the board, requests 6 communication of the death penalty to life im- prisonment.
 Zaukauskas was convicted by three Superior Court Judges in a unanimous decision Feb. 8, l946 and was sentenced to die April 20. His appeal to the State Supreme Court stayed the execution of the penalty On Dec. l9, the high court sustain ed the conviction by a unonimous decision, and then on Jan zuk- auskas was resentenced and the date of execution was set for April 10.
 Mrs. Plungis, mother of two children, disappeared Nov. 1, 1945, and three days later, following a confession from ZukauSkaS, her naked bullet-ridden body was found in a shallow grave near an isolated bridle path in Middlebury.
 Ideal Prisoner

 Mrs. Edna ZukauskaS, who has stood by her husband from the time of his arrest, has been a regular visitor at the prison, whose authori- ties have described Zukauskas as Ian ideal prisoner"
 It was reported that members of the local delegation were prepared to refer to recent dispositions in other slayings in the State, includ- ing the 10-year sentence imposed on another Waterbury man who was charged with the same crime as zukauskas, and the freeing of a Bridgeport woman who was charged with manslaughter.

 The trip to the hearings room marked one of the few times that zukauskas has been permitted to leave the segregation ward. reserved for condemned persons.
 According to its customary proce. dure. the board may give It's deci- sion at the close of the hearing, or may reserve 1t. Because the pen. alty is set for the day after toEnoF- row. the decision is expected at least by early tomorrow.
 If zukauskas' plea for clemency should be unsuccessful. his only re- recourse would be an ap- peal to the .. s. Supreme Court on Q Constitutional issue.
