Malcolm's mouth twisted wry-

CONFUSION

The results of Tuesdays cleo tions in Connecticut brought com- fort only to the Socialists, and if they think the voters voted for Socialism, they also are confused. In our opinion, the voters of New Haven, Waterbury and Hartford served notice on the Republican and Democratic parties that they were fed up with too much machine politics. By machine politics we mean the kind of politics which puts the welfare of a small hand full of party leaders and political hacks above the welfare of the people.
 The people expect that machine politics will play some part in nOmi- nations and elections, but when the machine begins to smell out loud, they instinctively desert the major parties. Hartford has gone SO far in its protest that it is instituting a city manager form of government. In New Haven, both parties must be- come more representative of the rank-and-f file, or there will be a major change in the next four years.
 Organized labor will be on the alert to observe whether or not the politicians who Outsmarted them selves in this election have learned their lesson.

Continued from Page One) in normal times, he only works half the year.
 We in organized labor believe that the building industry can be stabilized. There are number of practical plans which will help put into effect the guaranteed annual wage. One of these, recommended in a Federal study, pro- vides that when mechanic is unem- ployed, he shall receive unemployment compensation, and the employer make up the difference to meet the guaran- teed wage. The amount the employer would pay would be tax free of course.
 There are now 196 different guaranteed annual wage plans in effect in this country. If industry actually wants to investigate, with labor, the possibility of a guaran- teed annual wage, we in labor are prepared to do our share in help ing to stabilize the building indus try.

reau of Labor Statistics indicates that the answer to the latter ques- ton is generally in the affirmative. 5
 The study points out that longer hours resulted in a ''regressive rate" of output thereby raising the ''unit labor cost.'
 It also points out that perform ance under shorter hours is far superior to performance under longer hours all of which adds up to more production.

Sentinel received this note from one of his correspondents ''You will have in few days a story about the wedding of Miss -------------- and Mir. ------------ Please publish it with as little OstentatiOn as possible because he is my ex- husband she is my ex-cOok and it hurts me to think of someone else wearing the name that l wore for 27 years.''
