Warns OF Fire
Danger At Xmas

Fire Chief Glen McFerren
warned this week that inflam-
mable Christmas decorations in
troduce a needless fire hazard
during the current holiday season
and asked local citizens to avoid
the possibility of turning the
cheerful Yuletide period into a
time of grief and tragedy.
Non-flammable decorations Of
glass or metal are available and
''fireproof'' snow should be used
around the Christmas tree. 1t is
dangerous to use paper or cotton
in decorating the tree.
Candles should not be used as
a part of the Yuletide decora-
tions. Curtains and other inflam-
mable materials should be pulled
back at least six inches from any
electric light.
Chief McFerren emphasized
that these simple precautions
would help prevent the tragedies
which have marred previous holi
day seasons over the country.
Cooperation will be the key.

$2OO,OOO Paid Each Month For Social Security

Monthly payments to Old-Age and Survivors Insurance beneficial ries in the area served by the New Haven office, at 1O44 Chapel Street exceeded $2OO,OOO during the first quarter of 1948, according to fig ures released today by Clifton E. Davenport, Manager of the Social Security field office in New Haven. Over half of these monthly bene- fits were paid to insured workers who had retired at age 65 or over, and the balance was paid to their qualified dependents, or to the sur- vivOrs of insured workers who died at any age.
 Adding to the lump sums paid to survivors who could not immediately qualify for monthly benefits, over 5000 in this area received payments as matter of right, based on the 19o payroll deduction and the matching payments by their employers.
 MT. Davenport stresses the import .ance of communicating with his office within three months of retirement, or VI 1AAS dSdLlI O1 dlly WOl hCl WIlO llldy be insured under the system. In too many cases, several months benefits are lost, or no lump-sum death pay ment can be made, because the in sured worker or his survivors failed to file a claim within the time-limits provided by law.
 In l946, Congress gave addi- tiOnal Social Security protection to veterans. One feature was to allow until August 1948 for filing sur- vivOrs' claims based on the death while on active duty of an insured worker. Another was to provide pro- lection to survivors of veterans who die within three years of discharge from wartime military service whether or not the veterans had Social Security number. Anyone be- longing to either group would be wise to inquire immediately.
 Mail inquiries to 1044 Chapel Street, New Haven 10. will be promptly answered, but should include the name and Social Security number of the wage earner or veteran in volved, and the relationship and age of survivors of deceased worker.

Gallup Isn't In BusinessForFun, Avoid His Polls

Milwaukee, Wis. (LPA) = You'd better remember that all except one of the nationally touted public opinion polls are in business to make money.
 This charge is made by a former researcher for one of the polls, writing in the current issue of Building Service Employee, month ly magazine of the Building Serv- ice Employees Int1 Union-AFL. Robert C. Myers, now a teacher at Princeton University is the author.
 The majority of the existing public opinion polling agencies" Myers maintains, are simply business enter prises organized and run for the pur- pose of making a profit"
 "You might guess, then, that their selection of questions and their repor- ting of results would be biased or slanted toward the ownership-manage- ment point of view and against labor, particularly organized labor. Your guess would be absolutely correct"
 JUST 59o
 Myers refers to the findings of a Columbia University researcher that only 59o of questions relating to labor asked by all major polls, from 1940 through 1945, mentioned the positive aspects of labor'S activities. More than half dealt with union faults or pro- posed restrictions on unions
 The famous Gallup polls. Myers reveals, are conducted by "a closed corporation controlled lock, stock and barrel by George Gallup and a silent partner in Chicago named Harold Anderson. Anderson sells the poll results to newspapers"
 The article in the union maga- zine lists six conditions under which a poll can be considered to accu- rately reflect public opinion-if a fair sample of the population is asked the question, if the question means the same thing to everyone boiled, if the people who answer give an honest reply which is re- corded correctly, if the answers are added up correctly, and are report ed without weighting, slanting or misinterpreting.
 "Very few of todays polls can get passing mark on even half of the above conditions" Myers insists. He urges some form of regulation by pub lie bodies, so that the details of how the polls are taken and who is boiled can be checked, as we'll as the method of reporting the results.

 To Paint-But

SAN FRANCISCO (FP)- The Public Buildings Administration has ordered Anton Refregier to paint over his panel depicting the 1884 waterfront strike in the mural he is doing at the Rincon Annex postoffice. He was given until April IS to cover the mural, which he contends is an integral part of San Francisco history.
 A protest came from the joint con- ference of CIO maritime unions, which demanded an open hearing for Re fregier with testimony from water front workers. "If recording of an i'm portant labor struggle is arbitrarily to be eliminated from the history of the US. or of California, it can only be because anti-labor forces find such struggles embarrassing" the union said

The counsel for Armour & Co. didn't like the idea of 60 public school children sitting in the court room while he demanded an in- junction against the striking United Westinghouse Workers in OkIaho- ma City.
 It was ''most inopportune time" for them to see how a court operates, company counsel ID. l. Johnson complained to US. Dist. Judge A. P. Van Meter. The sixth grade pupils had been brought to the courtroom by two women teach- CTS.
 Many of the students are chiI- dren of parents who are on the picketline, Johnson said, indicat- ing why he was reluctant to have them witness the facts of court room life.
 Van Meter reminded the company lawyer that a recent state judicial decision held that a courtroom must be open to the public. ''I know that, but l suggest the teachers withdraw the children voluntar- ily," Johnson said. Neither of the teachers felt like doing that. They said they weren't out to disturb anybody.

 The Guild listed eight proposals, only one of which, it said, the pro- ducers would grant. Turned down were proposals for:
 l. Restrictions on reissues of old films, which accentuate the chronic unemployment in the movie industry.
 2. Temporary clause to ban use in television of films made for thea. ter exhibition, until agreement is reached to let actors as we'll as pro. ducers share additional revenue.
 3. No loan-outs of contract players without actors consent.
 4. Reduction in length of term contracts.

 6. Right of actor to perform ill other branches of amusement in. dustry and retain fees paid him.

 Five employees of the United Baking Co. of UniontOwn, Pa., were eligible to vote. Two didn't. Of the other three, two wanted a nniOn shop contract with the AFL. One didn't.
