Stamford Custodians
 Seek Pay Increase

Custodians and mechanics of the public school system asked for pay increase to be included in the 1947-48 school budget at meeting last week with the building and grounds com mittee of the Board of Education.
 Charles Telesco, president. of Local 1883, State, County and Municipal Employes, AFL, which represents the majority of the maintenance employees of the school department, declined to say in advance of the meeting how much of pay increase would be sought, but confirmed that a definite bid would be made.
 The meeting was called at the re- quest of the custodians and mechanics, pursuant to ruling last month by Town Counsel George Wise that the union could be recognized by the Board of Education for discussion purposes but not as sole bargaining agent for the department.
 Following the hearing, the building and grounds committee met with the finance and supplies committee to pre- pare next years school budget, which must be submitted to the full Board at its regular meeting April 8 before final action is taken.

Merger Of AFL Paper Unions Moves Closer

CHICAGO = (LPA) = Merger of the Int'1 Brotherhood of Pulp, Sul- phite & Paper Mill Workers-AFL and the Int'l Brotherhood of Paper makers-AFL moved long step clos CT to realization here last week follow ing the IBP's 18th convention.
 The merger, which now hinges on action by the IBSPMW at its convention scheduled for Milwau- kee in September, would cOnsOE- date memberships tOtaling more than 175,OOO.
 IBP President Matthew J. Burns told the convention that organized la Dor must advance a positive national program to oppose the negative ap- preach of Congressional and other leaders.
 Labor itself," he declared, must lead the way toward a more secure economic, social and political condition. Labor must demonstrate its capacity for self government. Labor must un- dertake in a sincere and serious way the task of making democracy work and to make 1t serve the needs and the spiritual and material well-being of every man, woman and child in America"

Fitting Finish For Fink Finds Tuning Finale
Notorious Anti Unionist Gets 10 Years I'm Jail
 For Robbery

LOS ANCELES-(FP)-A gut ter ending to the career of a fink was written in superior court here when Richard K. Franklin was sen- fenced to 10 years in San Quentin for robbery.
 Franklin's conviction was no surprise to the organized labor movement, which has watched him play every angle in the anti-union game since he was kicked out of organized labor 10 years ago.
 After brief venture into politics in 1889, during which he flooded the city with race hatred material, Franklin tied up with a Dies conn mittee informer and started the American Union Alliance. The AUA, which speedily won the ap- proval of the Merchants & Manu- lecturers Assn., specialized in form ing company unions wherever AFL and CIO unions were being organ iZed.
 During 1o42. Americas first year at war, Franklin distinguished himself by demanding repeal of the 18th amend ment to the U. s. constitution, which granted Negroes the right to vote. He also boasted that he would like to hang every organizer in Cali fornia to the highest tree we can find"
 Evidence supplied to the NLRB finally forced Franklin's company union out of business but he con- tinued his activities as the west coast representative of the Mechan- ics Educational Society of America and as a member of the Los Ange- les Chamber of Commerce.
 By 1945 Franklin's usefulness to the employers was washed up and he dropped out of sight until December 1o46, when he was arrested as mem Der of an armed holdup gang.
 The Los Angeles Citizen, AFL newspaper, commented sarcastically on Franklin's conviction: s'No an- nouncement has been made by the M & M Merchants & Manufactur- ers) as to his successor"

 Elect Officers

The Connecticut Conference of Typographical Unions recently held a meeting in Norwich, in connection with the 80th anniversary celebration of the beginning of Norwich Typo graphical Union, No. 100.
 The conference delegates were guests of Local 100, which had speak CTS for management and labor express ing the continuance of good relations in the future as in the past. The prin- cipa1 speaker of the evening was I.TU. Representative Robert C. Kirk patrick, who gave summary of the trade trends and management and labor relations in New England.
 At the election of officers of the conference the following were chosen for the ensuing year:
 President-David Ellis, of Hartford.
 Vice President-Joseph J. Reynolds, of Meriden.
 Financial Secretary-John C. Kas- per, of New Haven.
 Recording Secretary-Ra1ph Pan- calo, of New Britain.
 William Redman, of New Haven, the retiring president was commended for his untiring work during the past year and congratulated upon his ap- pointment to the state department for apprentice training in various crafts and trades.

ployers discovered that the prohibition on employment of Negroes in many fields on the theory that white work CTS would be antagonized, had actual ly very little basis in fact.
 ALL CAN LEARN
 Prejudiced attitudes which held that Negroes were largely incapable of de yeloping industrial skills quickly melted away as employers saw these comparative newcomers master some of the most intricate trades. Negroes who were given a sporting chance to prove their ability in industry demon strated that they have what it takes.
 An article in the N. Y. Herald Tribune (Aug. 25, 1946) summarized the work of the N. Y. State Commis- sion against Discrimination by saying that New York's experience, over more than year, has been distinctly favorable"
 During its first year the New York Commission investigated 477 cases of alleged bias. It settled 355 of these cases by securing the em- plOyer's consent to eliminate the discrimination, and the balance of the cases are still in the active file. The Commission points with pride to the fact that although the law provides penalties up to $500 fine and a years imprisonment, these provisions have not had to be in- voked in a single case. Employers have shown themselves willing to cooperate once the existence of bias was pointed out to them.
 In New York large numbers of con- cerns have begun to realize that dis criminatory practices operate against their best interests and they have therefore moved to eliminate these in the wake of public discussion that fol- lowed the creation of the state com mission. Said one executive: Some of the new people I've hired are out standing. You ought to point out to employers the benefits they get from an increased labor market, where they have access to so many more qualified workers"
 So favorable has been the NY. experiment in outlawing discrimi- nation in employment that many states have sent delegations to study the law in its application. Last year Massachusetts enacted a similar anti-blue law, and bill was intro- duced in the Rhode Island legisla- ture. It is quite logical now for Connecticut, always a forward-look- ing state, t0 join its neighbors in this very practical crusade to make the great American slogan or "fair play" come true for all citizens, whatever their national origin or creed or color.

Profteering?

From time to time organized Labor has noted how corpora tions have boosted their profits out of all proportion to the in- crease in sales, particularly in the liquor industry.
 In all cases the discrepancy has been marked, but the ''blue ribbon" goes to the National Distillers Corporation. It reports that, on IF per cent increase in sales last year, it hiked its profits 239 per cent and was able to in- crease its dividends nearly 400 per cent.
 The profits reflect the fantas- tic prices charged for liquor.

ly charmer. These three, Brian
Aherne, Robert Mitcnum and Gene
Raymond, together with Miss Day
can do little to rescue the screenplay
from classification as another psy-
chologie thriller that Is not particu-
larry exciting.
One supposes that the real aspira-
ton of the author of '"The Locket'
was to convey message. Its premise
seems to be that little people-in
this case little girl-who are treat
ed unjustly become paroniacs who
lie, steal, and commit murder when
they reach adulthood. This is true
no doubt, but as illustrated In 'The
Locket," it intimates the species
would have been destroyed long ago
The exaggeration is hardly likely
to escape any spectator whose curl
osity is halfway held by the Metro
politan's melodrama.

The layman who has picked up
his hazy notions Of psychiatry from
Sunday supplements, or worse, is
not likely to be left agog by the case
history Of which Miss Day is the
heroine.
It is related that as a little girl,
daughter of a servant in rich
home, she was given a locket by the
kindly child of the wealthy family.
Almost Immediately, it was snatched
from her by the naughty mistress
| Of the palace, who, when the locket
| is missing short time later, ac-
cuses the helpless, innocent child OF
having stolen it.
Instead of turning against lockets,
Miss Day grows into a beautiful
girl who is against society.
While this decision may be just,
lit Is enormously impractical. For
tunately, there is an ethic in the
reviewing trade that such plots shall
not be disclosed. (The etfic prob
ably grew out of the fact that at
tempting to synopsize such a tale
would make a reviewer more psy-
chotic than the heroine Of "The
Locket.)
John Brahm who directed "The
Locket" finds no new devices to
facilitate his narration. He resorts,
as one apparently must in the cir
|cumstances, to the flashback within
the fiashback within the flashback.
Instead Of heightening the excite
ment, this process becomes confus-
ing: something like three people

THE CAST
By Harry Macarthur

There seem to be a great many
people in Hollywood who are labor
ing under the delusion that any
young man in his right mind would
spurn as If she were leper any
young girl he discovered really to be
Barbara Wyngate, heiress to the
massive Wyngate fortune. This
probably is no worse than any other
delusion. The trouble is that too
many people suffering from it feel
an urge to write movie scripts while
they are suffering.
The latest excursion into this
