Now They Want Sixth Ave. Back

NEW YORK, (P)-After all the fuss and ceremony of changing the name of Sixth Ave. to the Avenue of the Americas, New York now has a movement under way to change the name back again.
 A group with headquarters in Greenwich Village is circulating petitions to Mayor William J. O'Dwyer asking for restoration Of the old name. The die-hards con- tend that New Workers are still calling the street Sixth Ave, and that out-of-towners find it diff cult to orient themselves under the new street signs.
 Unofficially, City Hall has its tongue in it's cheek.

Alaska Must Be
 Fortress and Have Many More Homes

WASHINGTON, CP) - Alaska should be built into a fortress with added defenSes on the Arctic coast, Delegate Bartlett said yes terday on his return to Washing ton from two months in the Terri tory.
 The government is building a large airfield at Fairbanks and plans another at Nenana but these are not sufficient to meet the sit uation if we are attacked" Bart lett said.
 No one knows what Russia is doing on its side of the Boring Sea but we know that Siberia is heav- fly populated with millions of in- habitants while Alaska is sparse ly populated.
 If an attack came it probably would come from the north and we should have defenses on the Arctic coast"
 Bartlett told reporter the housing situation in the Territory is desperate" and that many peo- pie coming to settle are forced to return to the United States be- cause they cannot find homes or even hotel rooms.
 Housing is our most pressing T

 Tn Fairbanks and Anchorage it is worse than anywhere in the United States"
 Bartlett said he expects House passage of the Alaska statehood bill at the next session and he hopes to be able to get Senate ap- proval before the session ends.

ABBOTT, COSTELLO IN "lITTLE GIANT"
 AS CApIT0L'S BILL

Those two sterling comedians Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, are said to introduce an entirely new brand of laughter in their latest picture, Universals Little Giant" due to- night at the Capitol Theatre.
 The film was directed by William A. Setter and in it he is declared to have obtained effects never be- fore seen in an Abbott and Cos tello vehicle. Setter has combined the outstanding laugh getting gen. jus of the screens two most highly paid comedians, with a creditable plot which involves the success story of a country boy who goes to the big city to make good.
 Costello is seen as the country boy, and Abbott has double part, impersonating two of the tycoons with whom the innocent rural youth come in contact. The familiar role of Costello being pushed around" by his straight man" which has made these two funny men mter- national favorites. is declared to have been carried out with con- sumate skill.
 Supporting this highly amusing team of rib ticklers, are Brenda Joyce, Jacqueline De Wit, Elena Verdugc, Mary Gordon and George Cleveland.
 Miss De Wit is cast as scAem- ing charmer who tries to take ad- vantage of Costello, but the bump kin is protected by Miss Joyce in sympathetic role, and finally is re- stored to the affection of his child hood sweetheart, played by Miss Verdugo.

that rehabilitation of existing slum
building is neither profitable for
private owners, nor an economical
way of providing subsidized hous-
ing under government ownership.
Rehabilitation by private own
ers was found economically un-
sound because it would result in
rents averaging $42.50 for less
than 31h rooms-a rent too high
for half of the tenants to pay, and
too low to yield profit to land
lords. Under such a program, 40
per cent of the population would
be displaced because of it's inability
to pay higher rents. The average
family income in the typical block
chosen for intensive study was
$3.50 a year.
Rehabilitation by public authori-
ties, with the help of subsidies and
low interest rates, could get the
rents down to an average $3.50
for small units. Nevertheless re-

Utility Dispute
Goes To Arbifer

New York City ILNS). - The
wage dispute between the New
York State Gas and Electric Corp.
and II locals of the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Work
ers, has gone to John Dwyer, i'm
partial chairman, for a decision.
A 3-member arbitration board
failed to reach unanimous de-
cision, leaving the case up to
Dwyer. The case involves $500
utility workers in 43 upstate coun-
ties.
A company proposal that in
capacitated workers of more than
35 years service may be placed in
lower classification jobs without
reduction in pay, and that workers
of less tenure may have pay re-
duced according to set scale, was
accepted by the whole board.
Union demands disputed were for
a 3O-cent-an-hour wage increase, a
10-cent-an-hour premium for high
voltage workers and two-year
instead of a One-year contract.

New York City (ILNS).-Brick-
layers are working at lower rate
of production today than before
the war because the cost-plus con-
tracts of wartime construction
gave incentive to management to
waste labor rather than economize
it, Matthew Woll, American Fed
Grafton of Labor vice president,
told the New York chapter of the
Society of Residential Appraisers.
AS an example of the wartime
loss of production, Woll cited the
case of a contractor who built a
munitions depot in Colorado with
400 bricklayers and tried to get
the union to send him 200 more.
The union investigated and found
he needed only $50, and had the
other $50 standing around because
the higher the cost the higher his
fee, he said.
1t will take a long time to re-
educate labor out Of the inefficient
work habits developed by the fee
system during the war, Woll de-
