Election Effort
 Up As Deadline Nears
Labor Redoubles Work To Get Out Largest Vote
 On Record

New York (LPA) = Organized labor in every section of the cOun- try redoubled its efforts this week to get out the largest vote ever recorded in an Off-presidentiaI year-and to have that vote insure a progressive Both Congress.
 Labor campaigns for individual can didates were accelerated in the stretch drive under the prcdding realization that shift of only 25 seats could throw Congress into the hands of the Republican Party and its Taft-Dewey- Bricker leadership.
 Political campaigns by AFL com mittees from Oregon to Florida took to the airwaves with increasing ire quency, arranged additional mass meetings and rallies, organized new house-to-house canvases, turned out new quantities of political literature and bought newspaper ads to bring crucial issues to the attention of the electorate.
 One Goal
 There was one goal: to get out a national vote of 40,0000O0. Labor strategists agreed with COP leaders on one thing at least: a light vote would work greatly to the advantage of the Republicans.
 Unofficial surveys last week indi- cated that the nations registration had gone we'll over the 40, ,OOO, 900 mark with some states and a large number of cities registering more than ever before in an off-presi- dential year. New York City's 2,7OO,OOO and the states 6,OOO,OOO were both records. Similarly Cali fornia's total of 4,388, ,383, and IIIi- nois' 2,lO2,O36 shattered all pre- vious highs. A United Press poll of 26 cities showed total registrations were l,25O,OOO greater than in 1942.
 One certainty pervaded labor's ef- forts everywhere; if a Republican Congress is elected it is a foregone certainty that the anti-1abor drive of the last session will be renewed with far greater stfengh and determina- ton. Restrictive and union-busting legislation is already being prepared by Republicans such as Sen. Joseph Ball (R, Minn.), who last week ex- pressed confidence of a Republican maj ajoritS in the next Congress.
 Labor leaders were not ignoring

Shanley Backed By Unions For
 ProbateJudge
United Labor Committee Of New Haven Pledges
 Its Full Support

The three labor organizations of Greater New Haven today announced that they had endorsed James A. Shan1ey for election as Judge of Pro- bate Court.
 The announcement was made by the United Labor Committee, which consists of the A.F.L., Railroad Brotherhoods and C.I.O., and is signed by Vincent J. McCovern, president of the New Haven Central Labor Council; Clifford w. Kealey, general chairman of the Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers on the New Haven Railroad; and by Edward McCrone, CLIO. director. The statement said:
 "The labor organizations of this city have had a long and fruitful friendship for James A. Shanley. His record in Congress showed that he has the interests of the working peo- pie always in the forefront of his ac- tivitieS.
 ''We consider the office of Pro- bate Judge especially important from the point of view of working people. With a man as Judge of this Court whose record is unassail- able, we know that those who will have to depend on the Probate Court Judge will find sympathetic response with MT. Shanley in that office.
 "We call upon all members of labor and their friends to give him their full support"

Tone Says We Can't Return To Days Of Hoover
Senate Nominee Says COP Has No Program To
 Stop Depression

Joseph M. Tone, Democratic candidate for US. Senator from Connecticut, presented his political credo to the voters of this state Monday night in an address to the New Haven League of Women Vot. CTS at the Hotel Taft.
 Because it deals with the basic issues of the campaign, we present MT. Tones address in full. The text of the address follows:
 There are two groups at work irl this country-two strongly opposing groups. One force is represented by those who say: This is great coun- try. Let it alone. Just keep the govern ment from interfering, and we'll be al- right. Keep the status quo.
 "The second group says: This is a great country. We have one hundred and forty million people here. We are going forward.
 WANT DECENCY
 ssThese people, and that means you and me, don't ask too much of life. Their demands, if I may use trade union language, are moder- ate. They want decency. They want a decent place to live in. They want decent jobs. They want jobs which will enable their families to lead a full life. They want year-around employment, so they won't be haunted by the fear of unempIoy- ment. As far as mere humans can provide it, they want security. Not the kind of security which leads to smugness and dry rot, but the kind

As We See It
 by THE STAFF

NITED LABOR COMMIT. TEES broadcast Saturday night honoring Joe Tone and Jim Ceelan is receiving much praise. Frankly, it is now beginning to appear that organized labor is doing more to elect Tone, Snow and the Congress sional candidates than the Demo cratic machine is doing. We wonder how the Democrats expect to win with such tactics?
 Speakers on the broadcast were Vincent J. McCovern, president of the New Haven Central Labor Coun- cil; Cliff Kealey, general chairman of the Bro. of Locomotive Engi- neers, who also spoke for Bill Donoghue, chairman of the Train men; and Ed McCrone, state CIO director.
 PLUMBERS & STEAMFITTERS of New Haven have finally received approval of their wage increase from the Wage Adjustment Board. The increase is $1 per day. If the Board had delayed its decision much longer, it might have found itself out of existence, if you know what we mean. Anyway, cred it goes to the Local for its persist ent work.
 There is scarcely city where Ia- bor isn't putting on a major drive for Joe Tone. The Danbury Hat ters, the Stamford Machinists, the united group in New Haven, to mention but few, are doing a re- markable job. The Machinists throughout the state are putting on whirlwind campaign. Every rail- road brotherhood union in the state has endorsed him. With the exception of F.D.R., no man has ever enthused Connecticut labor the way Tone has. Whether he wins or loses, he is 1abor's spearhead.
 In New Haven, the Central La bOr Council is sponsoring an auto- mobile parade Monday night be- fore election, to leave from the La bor Temple at 2 PM. sharp. There will be colored lights, a loud speaker, and a march through town. All unionists and their friends are asked to assemble in front of the Labor Temple at z.
