PRES. VINCENT MIG GOVERN of the New Haven Central Labor Council, says that the talk given by ''Nuts" McAuliffe at the Knights of St. Patrick dinner was one of the best. Mae was especially impressed by the fact that McAuliffe gave all the credit for his brilliant military victory over the Germans to the privates and corpOrals. The rank and-file are the backbone of any worthy undertaking, Mae says, to which we all unanimously agree.

State Joins In Paying Tribute To Ellis Ranen
Services Held In New York; Feinmark, Thorpe, Han
 rahan Speak

George Thorpe, president of Conn. Council No. l6, American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees; Harold V. Feinmark, former secretary-treas- urer of the Conn.

He was very we'll known in Connecticut, where he helped organize large number of locals among state and city workers.

 A REAL TRIBUTE
 In addition to Connecticut, labor representatives from all sections of the east spoke at the memorial serv- ices. Some of them were so moved that they were unable to finish their tributes.
 Ranen, who is survived by his widow, Mrs. Esther Ranen, and two children, was an outstanding author ity on labor relations, having written books on the subject. He had been assistant to New York Welfare Com missioner William Hoodson, and was director of staff relations when he re- signed in 1922 to take a post with state and city employees union. His career included relief activi- ties in Europe, lieutenancy in the US. Reserve Army Corps, and the writing of sonnets in Yiddish that were published in Berlin.

 Gets Test Case On Jimcrowiism
Negress Was Fined $1O On Greyhound Bus For Re
 fusal To Conform

WASHINGTON LPA) = The Supreme Court now has before it arguments on whether the state of Virginia has the right to demand Jim Crow law segregation of white and Negro passengers in busses which cross its state lines.
 Miss Irene Morgan, who is a Ne gro, has appealed a fine of $1O levied because she refused to change to seat in the rear section of a Grey hound bus on the request of the driver. She was travelling from Norfolk, Va. to Baltimore, Md
 Judge William H. Hastie recent. ly nominated as governor of the Virgin Islands by President Tru. man, and ThurgOOd Marshall, gen. eral counsel of the National Asso- ciation for the Advancement of Colored People, argued the case before the court.
 Our nation, they said, "has >recog- nized by solemn subscription to the charter of the United Nations our duty to eschew racism." The use of the Virginia Jim Crow law in the case was termed "capricious appli- cation of provincial notions" The lawyers further charged that such segregation was an aspect of inter state commerce which was beyond the control of the state.
 Virginia attorney general Abram P. Staples argued that the enforce ment of the Jim Crow law was necessary to public safety, and that ''laws cannot alter human nature or erase racial antagonisms. Only the Great Master who created and endowed mankind with these in. firmities can eradicate them.''

A public hearing was held month ago, and the board acted Monday night Mayor Celentano's approval is certain.
 Following is the text of the amendment:
 ssSectiOn 369 of the Charter of the City of New Haven is hereby amended by the addition of the following paragraph:
