On neither did he exceed the

parkway, for most of it's distance,
carries a 55-mile limit. Route

So far officials have failed to

It's easy to find, however.
Simply turn right on the LAUREL

Republican and Democratic
eyes will turn anxiously to New
Jersey, Virginia and New York
in Tuesdays elections, hoping
for a sign, a trend of party sue
cess in the 1854 congressional
contests.
A defeat for the G. o. P. in the
New Jersey gubernatorial race
would be regarded as a black
eye for the Eisenhower admin
istration-even though the cam
paign has been deeply involved
IN local issues. Particularly is
this so since the White House
announcement that President Eli
senhower hoped to see Paul l..
Troast, the Republican candidate
for governor, win. Both sides
claim victory. Mr.. Troast's
chances appear to be on the
upgrade. Whether the climb back
and his stock took a severe
drop a few weeks ago-will
carry him to victory remains to
be seen. New Jersey Republic
can leaders are predicting his
election. The race, it is generally
conceded, will be close and 25,-
200 to $4,000 votes may decide it
either way.
G. o. p. District Watched.
OF even greater significance,
however, would be defeat for the
Republican candidate for the
vacant house seat in New Jer-
sey's Sixth Congressional Dis
trict. This district for years has
been strongly Republican. No
Democrat has been elected to
represent it in Congress since
1881. A Democratic victory there,
coming on top of the Democratic
victory several weeks ago in the
Ninth Wisconsin District, would
forecast Democratic victory in
the congressional elections 1ext
year. The preponderance of
opinion is that the Republican,
George F. 4ietfield, will win
though by a reduced lead.

State which elects a governor

AFL President George Meany
said yesterday that Secretary of
Commerce Weeks, through an
arrangement" with President
Eisenhower, has become "over-
seer" of Labor Department op-
erationS.
Mr.. Meany said the Commerce
Secretary had convinced Gen.
UNIV Poper AssoiIs Policy Study Groups
as StoIIine Device. Poee ALB
Eisenhower that since business
and industry are affected by de-
cisions made at the Labor De-
partment. Commerce should have
some say as to rulings on queS-
lions of hours of work, minimum
wages, wages to be paid on Gov
ernment construction and in fill
ing Government contracts.
The top union official added
that recently Mr.. Weeks hired a
former Labor Department attor-
ney, John L. Kilcullen, jr.. and
assigned him the job of watch
ing what was going on at Labor.
The objective of Mr.. Weeks, Mr..
Meany said, was to see that de-
ciSions made at Labor with re-
spect to wages and working con-
ditions were as favorable as pos
Sible to business interests.
This, Mr.. Meany contends, is a
perversion of the original pur-
pose of the Labor Department
which was set up to look out for
the interests of working men and
women,
Mitchell Is Good Man."
In his first official comment on
that point, Mr.. Meany said that
the new Secretary of Labor,
James P. Mitchell, is a good
man" and would make a good
Labor Secretary "if he were left
alone"
But I know that Mr.. Mitchell
is not going to be his own boss,
Mr.. Meany said. "Mr. Weeks, ]
am afraid, will run the Labor
Department."
Mr.. Mitchell succeeded Martin
P. Durkin, president of the AFL
Plumbers Union, who resigned in
September, charging that Presi-
dent Eisenhower had run out on
an agreement to recommend to
Congress 10 changes in the con-
troversial Taft-Hartley labor
relations law.
Mr.. Mitchell will take part
in new White House efforts to
draft a program of Taft-Hart-
ley Act amendments for SUBJ
mission to Congress in January
Secretary Weeks also will have
a say in the program.
| Mr.. Meany and organized Ia
Dor in general have been highly
critical in recent weeks of the
Eisenhower administration, par
ticularly with respect to the
Taft Hartley controversy.
Mr.. Meany said that enforce
ment of the Wage and Hour law
the Walsh -Healy Act and the
Bacon-Davis Act had dropped to
an all-time low in recent months
This, he said, was due in large
part to budget cuts which have
| left the Labor Department with
altogether inadequate enforce
ment stats.
The union official said thai
the number of complaints oi
violation of the Bacon-Davis Act
coming into the AFL Building
and Construction Trades De-
partment, have increased greatly
just recently.
THAT law was put on the
books so that the American
standard of living would not bt
lowered because of wages paic
on Government construction
projects" Mr.. Meany said, "anC
employers are just ignoring it.
The law says, in effect, tina
. prevailing" area wages must bl
paid as a minimum on Fedora
projects. Employers have charged
that the Labor Department haI
interpreted the prevailing
wage to mean the union pay rate

Layne, who had been roundly
booed by irate Detroit fans who
felt he was hurting the team,
struck back at his critics yester-
day by combining with End
Cloyce Box on a spectacular 97-
yard touchdown pass play
against the Green Bay Packers.
1t was the longest scoring pass
in the Detroit clubs history and
ignited the Lions to a 34-15 vic
tory before 52,607 fans and

Pass Carries IS Yards.
Standing in his own end zone,
Layne lofted a third-period pass
which carried SIS yards in the
air. Box gathered it in behind
Ace Loomis, Green Bays top pass
defender. and coasted the rest
OF the way. 1t brought the Lions
to within one point of Green
Bay, 1914, and set the pace for
Detroit's 27-point explosion in
the second half.
And Layne did it with an ex-
tremely sore arm. It had hurt
him so much, in fact, that he
didn't throw one pass in the
regular practice sessions. Nobody
knew this except the Lions and
they kept it a well-guarded
secret until after the game.
Fortunately, the Lions won't
play again until Sunday, Decem-
ber 6. when they meet the Chi
cago Bears. That will give
Layne's sore arm a good rest.
If the champion Lions whip
the Bears and follow up with
