London, Sept. 4.—(/P)—A scant 12 hours after the R. A. F.’s third heavy-bombardment of Berlin, Allied bombers roared across the channel again early this afternoon to continue round-the-clock assaults on the Nazis. Some .of the aircraft were identified as Mitchells and Venturas. Observers along the English channel reported big explosions from the direction of Calais and Dunkerque.

London, Sept. 4.—(A*)—A great bombardment fleet of Lancasters smashed Berlin last night from a clear sky, casting down 1,000 long tori? (1,120 U. S. tons) of fire bombs and howling steel in
.20 minutes of attack officially described by the British Air Ministry as “highly concentrated.’’ From a night of far- ranging operations—other British airmen rode the skies above the Rhineland and beat a t enemy flying fields in France and sowed mines in enemy waters—the British lost 22 bomber
DNB, German news agency, re- -it ported in a radio broadcast from
' Berlin that a'preliminary count showed that 15 four-engined bombers had been shot down.
!; Not aa Heavy as Frior Raids ■' The Berlin raid was the third ’! within 11 days but was not on
th . terrible scale of dcstructive- • neaa of the two that went Imme-

scarred and smoking from attacks that have already thrown upon it
, more tons of bomba, than fell on London In all the long months of Reichsmarshal Hermann Goering's
- attacks, and thus had a cumulative effect far beyond the weight of ex-

Washington, "^ept. 4.—(F) — Chairman Sabath (D-III) of the House Rules committee said today he would go before . the House Ways and Means committee when it opens tax hearings to urge that n jney be raised by means of a Federal lottery.
He conceded that his idea faced tough sledding because neither President Roosevelt nor Treasury Secretary Morgenthau are believed to be for it.

Acut^ Manpower Shortages hi Aircraft Industry BeWlid ■. P r o g r ^ .
■ Washington, SepL 4—(/P)—-Critical manpower aHortag^, particularly. In the a lrd i^ t industry, -nromfited the Offlcp'^ War Mobilization today tp pre)(are to program designed to ' keej> waf pro- ductipn at fuircapaclty.
President Roosevelt was expected to be a participant in an OWM meeting * called to provide
.coordinated action by government agencies in handling the manpower problem.
Donald M. Nelson, chairman of the War Production board, and
; Paul V. McNutt, the manpower chief, have discussed the production manpower shortage with high Army and Navy officials during the past 10 days,
May Shift Contracts ^ Among, the propc^ls discussed by high ^vem m 'ent officials are projects for shifting . war contracts from crowded industrial
- centers so as to frM Isbor for plane fsetonea elsewhere.
The manpower shortage hae been most acute on the west coast, where much of the aircraft Indus try is centered. -Senator Downey (D., Calif.) yesterday 'asked Array, Navy and Selective Service officials to oiler testimony regarding labor shortages in the Rocky moqntaJQ and Pacifle coast ststos,
Downey, chairman at a Senate Military sflboonimittee investigating western labor eonditlons, said
. draft calls removing badly needed workers had made the labor alt- •atiOB “very aarioua.’’
'Mackinac Island, Mich., Sept. 4. —(iP»—in search of a peace-preservation formula for use in framing their 1944 platform, national Republican leadera talked of a coiii- promlse today which would satiafy the extreme Internationally-minded, the middle-road collaborationists and the so-called “reservatlon- lata." .
All factions appeared agreed that a foreign. policy . decla? ration by the party’! Poat-War Advisory council St the two.day meeting beginning Monday would reaffirm, with possibly some new phraseology, the Republican stand against Isolationism voiced con sistently in and out of Congreas since -Pearl Harbor.
Eaton ".Ydded Starter”In the midst of this compromise
discussion was an unannounced “added starter ” who, while not an official member of the council, was invited by Chairman Harrison E Spangler of the Republican n a / tional committee to attend ag a special adviser.
He was TJi-year-old Rep. .Cfiisrles A. Eaton of New Jersey, ranking Republican on the HojiSe Foreign Affairs committee.
The tall, white-hkired Eaton, former-pceacher, how serving his tenth House tgrtn. was passed over when trie cguncU was formed - in midsummer'. ,
The Igribrlng of Eaton led under-cover criticism that council’s personnel was too heavl ly ‘’nationalistic."
Both Eaton and Senator Van denberg of Michigan, a leading
D. Leeron, former Dei la., newspaperman, re- B director at the Food division under Nelson,
kefeller, coordinator of Inter- Amferican affairs. He abided by Presldbijt Roosevelt’s orders that anyone wrip wants to air criticism of the a^ ln istra tion publicly should accom'pgny It with his resignation.
Flatly Charges Interference Leeron flatly charged the State
department with “intwference, obstruction and unlntelligej^ dic- Ution." He said in a letter to Rockefeller that he was “un Ing longer to beat my against the wall of incompetence and Interference.”
Leeron, • close associate of Vice President Wallace, was assigned to increasing La tin-American food output to help the overall needs of the United Nations. He contended;
1_That "Interference fromthe State department had been going on since his division wascreated. ,. 2_Various officials, some inonly minor posUlorw. were sble to “harass and block our work because of divided authority, lack of administrative organization and want of directive policy In the State department."
3_In the face of congressionalappropriations backing up the work of the division, and the support of South American governments. some of SecreUry of State Hull’s aides undertook “to tell us how many and. what sort of »eri- cultural experts we may tend to countries withagreejnenta and hence-obllgatlona.

TTie 11 million service votes could tip the scales of the future.
Last September Congress passed a law enabling service members to vote la* Federal election*. I f state Legislatures approved, they could vote In state and local elections, too.
> This wartime measure stipulat- I ed that any member of the armed I services—who Was , a. , registered I voter or was eligible to' register—I could vote in a Federal election I notwithstanding bia state’s law on : the registration of qualified vot- ' era.
Nor could any member of the armed services, under the law, have to pay a poll tax even though that was the law of bis state.
This was the procedure: A member of the armed forces would write a atatc, aaldng for a ballot.
The law said the postcards had to be made available as soon as possible after F'eb. 1 in any year in which there was an election for senators or representatives.
Poat-Oarda Seat AbroadAlthough 194S la an off-year
for such elections, a couple were scheduled because of vacanciei due to death. So the services sent plenty of post-cards abroad.
Plenty of them got- into the, hands of men and women whose states were not holding Sections but, having the cards, the service people sent them to astonished secretaries of states, asking for ballots which did not exist in R a tions :whlch were not to ba^eld.
Now Democratic Senaton* Green of Rhode Island and.l^das of Illinois, authors of .the law, have ip Congress a pew bill' to amend it. ’This bill would do several things:
Perinrtf the'Army and Navy to prpvlM their overseas forces with .the proper ballots at the proper time. The votes would be microfilmed and returned as V-mail to the proper secretaries of state.
’The new measure also would permit American civilians abroad to vote just as the armed forces with thejr.ballot—obtained from the nearest militar„ commander- sent home as V-ipall.
’The amending bill may undergo some changes before Congress wrestles with it this year.
Also it may face a stiff fight on two points which brought strong opposition in the original: No poll tax required and freedom to vote in spite of state laws relating to registration of qualified voters. .
Record Buttei' Stocks Stored
But Over 75 Per Cent Is for Government Use —Little for Civilians.Chicago, Sept. 4—A record stock
pile of 209,845,000 pounds of butter crowded the nation’s storage bins at the week-end, while grocers tolJ housewivea ’’Sorry, lady, no butter."
However, the dairy industry warned civilians not to blame the government for accumulating this peak supply of butter because most of it will go to American soldiers. --
Qwen Richards, general manager of the American Dairy Association, said 122,295,000 pounds of the .tbtal butter in storage is held by the Dairy Products Marketing Association which buys butter for the government for military and lend-lease purpoeee. Another 26,- 999,000 pounds is held by Food Distribution Ad,ministration and Federal Surplus Commodities Corp., tagged for further government use. *'
"That leaves 60,551,000 pounds which is commercial holdings for civilian use," Richkrd* said, "but even some of this Is earmarked for the government In case it is need- ed.
Uar Come* First"However, the industry does not
feel the government is hoarding butter as some sources have charged," he said. '"The war comes first. It is necessary to build up these stockpiles because the governmnt cannot foresee the future trend of
war and the Army may need all this butter suddenly."
Although there is ho apparent relief of the Severe shortage in sight, Richards said the industry had a “solution.”
ffovernmeat should lift its SO per cent set-ulde order during September, October, November and December, thereby channeling 100 per cent of'produc- tlon to civilian*.’'
The government took 50 per ce,nt of all butter produced In June and ,July—peak months for production. .This was redu'ced to 30 per cent, dhring August. However, 22 per cent erf the entire year’s butter supply is produced in June and July.

Do Not Necessarily Have To Work on Wal* Output to Stay Home.Hartford, Sept. 4----iC) — Pre-
Pearl Harbor fatners do not necessarily have to work on war production. to avoid Immediate induction, but may be deferred for activities "in support of th* War effort," State Selective Service Director John F. Robinson said in a broadcast last night.
"The first fathers t o ' be called for inductioh will be those who are engaged in non-essential and non- deferable Jobs," be declared, “occupations that are not in any sense of the word directly or indirectly connected with the war effort.
Other Activities Included “ An es.sentlal occupation is not
to be-, cohstrued by M y stretch of the imagination as implying that a person must go into a shop or factory producing materials of war. Other activities in support of the war effort, such as the production and distributio'h of food, transportation, housing and the requisites of our daily health may be Included in essential acUyltles."
But Robinson stressed that the shift from non-essential occupations must be made at once by registering with the U. S. employ-' ment service for an e.ssentlal job. Addressing specifically prc-Pearl Harbor fathers between 18 and 38 he declared:
“ I am telling you " now — you fathers engaged in non-essential and non-deferable activity—that if you go into a war plant I shall do all In my power to see that you receive occupational deferment to which, your transfer to such aetjj-. Ity may entitle you.
“1 can make this promise to you only if yod act now—before the local board Orders you for induv tlon. 1 make this promise to yc because of the critical labor short age satiating in Connecticut. ’
Urges Buying Of Tomatoes
Market Supplies to Be Abundant Compared To Needs Next Week.New Haven. Sept. 4.— Uf)— Mar
ket supplies of tomatoes next week probably will be too abundant compared with buyers’ needs, a State Department of AgiictUture announcement predicted today. The prediction was based on the normal poet-Labor day market riec- ords of previous years. Such a development has been a' regular occurrence in the past, the announcement pointed out, and it is reasonable to expect that historv will repeat itself again / this irear in spite of the fact that total tomato production is below normal because of unfavorable drought conditions In most pafts of the state.
Prlee Break Came Explained The Aause for [this annual toma
to market price break is explained by the normal tendency of mapy home canners to suspend tomato canning operations over the I.abor day week-end resulting-Ih less demand at wholesale trading centers. This is Usually followed by accumulated supplies at these centers which result in the same effect as increased offerings, even though total daily offerings may actually be decreased below the rate prevailing in mid-August. 'The situation is aggravated further by the accumulations at many farms caused by- two market holidays over this week-end.
The Agricultural department’s announcerpent concludes with the suggestion that home canners who are In a position to take advantage of the situation plan n<5w to purchase a few e x t ^ baskets next week to can or otherwise preserve for next w ln te^ 'use. •
Three Day Holiday Is, Rule;^ Travel Heavy Today on Buses.
_ Manchester's industries will be shutdbwn completely over the Labor Day hoUday. As the • shifts completed Ihelr tasks sUrtiiig at midnight they will not resume their work until next Tuesday. The general direction of most o f the workers seemed to be the seashore with many just taking a trip "back home." Th* only attraction for these who stay at horns will be the big field event at the Y. M. C. A. grounds Monday aftsrnoon and evening. Nothing in the line of sports at all is scheduled.
Buses Are Crowded SUrting yesterday m o r n in g
travel from Manchester In all dl- retst^s was heavy amj It Increased during the afternoon and early evenmg. Buses in particular were crowdSd.and passengers were standing in the glalea Train ssr- vice ovsr the New Haven road was taxed to capacity and Is expected to be heavier tonight aniKtomor- row when the business estilbUsh- ments elose down.
Few Trip# By Auto Thus far few are making any
extended trips in the old family car. There are many reasons for this. Worry, was the chief cause, even though they could get gas, most of the owners were wondering how far the two and three- year-old cArs could travel without a breakdown. Parts are scarcer than gasoline and take longer to get. pierefore those who had planned to take advantage of the three-day holiday were going to let the public utilities worry over thiv.
The usual exchapge of vls’ ta which take place at this time of the year were notably absent, also. There was a time when Labor Day meant renewing old acquaintances In the home town. But again the o’ d family car was talcen Into consideration and quite a few refused to take any chances on public transit facilities and stayed at home.

, 'N ew Haven. Sept, 4.— — If questioned on victory garden ' favorites, moat home gardeners woqld place- tomatoes, sweet .com and squash near the top of the list. It la on these three vegetables thkt plant breeders of the Connecticut Agrlculturfil station have been concentrating their energies this summer. Several new varieties of their already nationally popular sweet com strain, a tomato of ex- cellent canning quality and new squashes of the Tankee hybrid type have been developed, or are' in the pi;oce8.s, the hybridists report.
"Excellent both for table use and for canning" is the enthusiastic acclaim given the new tomato developed by the station. The almost spherical fruit ripens with a uniform red color. The ease with wliich it can be peeled recommends It for canning. This variety, as yet utyiamed, is being tested this season in New York, Massachusetts and New. Hampshire, as well as In aevarsl sections of Connecticut.
Most Aceosspllslied On ComSweet'-com Is the vegetirtile on
which Connecticut plant breeders have been'-' working . longest and have accomplished most. Their group of golden hybrids simplifies garden planning because several varieties can be ^planted on the same date to ripen in succession over a month qg more. As new varieties are developed to fin in gaps in the succession schedule, or to replace old types, they are given names fWim American history to correspond with their maturity periods. A recommended sweet corn succession, all ta be planted around the twenty-first of May in southern Connecticut, will ripen as followa: Spancross and Seneca 60 x CIS, in late July; Mareross, Lexington and Carmelcroas, the first week in August; Lincoln, Lee and Golden- cross. the second Week in August; Wilson, Magnagotd and Golden Hybrid 2439, the thiid week; and Golden Stowell, the last week in August.
Two years ago Yankee hybrid squaah was released by the experiment station. The first-generation hybrid, It produced earlier and more numerous fruits -than any other stimmdr squaah then on the market. This season, work has continued on the development of similar yellow striUght-neck types,
this I Besides improving on the quality of the fruit, plant hrqe,dcrs are seeking parents with characters that will simplify production problems. Quality thick-walled peppers have also been, on the plant breeding agenda this summer. Records of the past three years show outstanding yields for the line being developed by the station.
Invited to See Samples Gardners are Invited to see
samples of the new Connecticut varieties of sweet corn, squaah. tomatoes and peppers, and sl.so blight-resistsnr chestnuts and' black walnuts, at the expSrlment station’s open house, Wednesday^ Sept, 8,-from 10 a. m. to 4:80 p. m.. Other exhibits a t the event will Include Japaneae bsstles, trse surgery, mil testing, watering, and non-pstaaltic plant diseases.

Buy Bonds At- The Field DayAfter Manchester’s summer of.
shall we say, relaxation with its Victory Oardens. September brings .back responsibilities and serious, war-winning obligations. Foremost among the obligations aiwaltlng us as we turn Into the fall mood Is tme of a victory for Manchester in the Third War Bond Drive.
Our quota—one of $750,000—Is the largest yet assigned us. It wlU require an average bond purchase of $38 from every member o f Manchester's population. Yet, i f that seems a large, high quptS, it is not too large-w too High. There’s no real celling od what the people of this country, of this community, can and should and will contribute to the support of our men in foreign fields, to the memory of those who are now lying in foreign fields, never to return. We can, and will, keep
with our living, . and our ^dead. They will never be able to say that our pocketbooks Were closed while their sacrifice was being made.
Beyond that, if the appeal to invest money in war bonds la a patriotic appeal, it is an unusually comfortable and profitable outlet for patrlotismi as well. It la the h ipest common sense to take some "ot toinya money and store it away for tomorrow, when there
not only be more things to buy,''but^ perhaps less facility of income.' And there is no investment offered aby of us today which is better, frOna^the hard- headed angles of securlty'''aad return, than war bonds.
The Manchester campaign to meet its Third War Bond Drive quota will open In gala fashion. Labor Day afternoon at the T. M. C. A. grounds. It will be a good and enjoyable thing for a lot of Manchester people to gather at this Field Day program, with its serious appeal as well as its entertainment, and give Harold Al- vord’a committee a fine initial lift toward that $750,000 goal. Include the Field Day-;;^d a bond purchase—in your plans for the week-end.
repetition of the small and experimental operations"''the American troops practiced in the final stages of the Sicilian campaign, when our troops sailed around the end of the Axis line to land behind it. This operation, first dramatically demonstrated by tltf Japs in their advance down the Malay Peninsula, should be well adapted to the peninsula of Italy, and if General Patton’s Seventh Army is stlU being held in reserve it IS logical to theorize that it may soon be found landing behind the first determined line of Axis resistance the British and Canadians, meet.
HTi:. Browder Again ,On the Xve of ouf invasion of
Italy, which'Americans^ anti British and Canadians can perhaps be pardoned for considering a> not in- signllcant contribution to the- progress of victory. New York City was the center of a Communist rally at which the principal speaker was Earl Browder, general secretaijy of the Communist Party of the United Stated;
Mr. Browder, to what we assume was the applause of some 3,000 of the Communist faithful assembled to hear him, took'over Allied strategy with a masterful, if amateurish completeness, and laid down the law to Allied generals and statesmen.
The only possible reason for the Allied.failure in opening th e ^ c - ond front as prescribed by Moscow, said Mr. Brow d^ is ‘’bad faith.” The invaslmi of Italy, then. U a pretty supreme example of "bad falth’ .bn our part.
Unless the" second front as prescribed by Moscow is opened before the end of the sumtoer, Anglo-American relations with Soviet Russia will I'dcteriorate sharply." We have, he threatened, more to lose from such a deterioration than haa Russia.
Thus Mr. Browder, leader of the American Communists, who went to prison a while back on a technical passport charge, but really because he was then 'engaged in trying to sell Americans the idea that we ought to let Hitler win this war as he pleased.
NOW' as then, Mr. Browder is serving. Soviet Russia first, and America second, if at all. Now, as then, he is carefully tailoring his utterances and policies to those of Moscow, without any more independent reasoning or logic than ^tbat of a parrot. ■ Now as then this mhn who poses as the leader of an American political party is, in actuality, tied hand and foot to a foreign capital,' and devoting himself solely to the current game of threat and bluff in which that capital is (tSelf engaging.
It is permissible to recall that President Roosevelt personally released Mr. Browder from prison In the InteresU of friendship with Bussia. It is also permissible M think that Mr. Browder, since he Is now engaged in .the business of threatening to destroy that friendship his release was supposed to help, could well be clapped back into Jail, if there is any realistic justice governing our attitude toward him.
eral hundred pounds more apiece when they did reach market.
By this time, our own confusion is complete, but we belong neither to the government nor to the meat industry, so we, solve our own confusion by deciding that the proper thing to do now would be to hold back some of this surplus beef from the market and fatten it up, by deciding that thp'meat industry was wrong in a.sking that the slaughter quotas be lifted, and by deciding that the WKA was wrong in lifting the quota.*.
But are we Tight, and both government and meat Indusiry wrong? Is the meat industry, knowing there’s going to be a g r^ t meal ‘‘famine" next spring, right In demanding that it be free to market everything now, underweight. so there will surely be such a famine? Is the government right in agreeing with the' moat industry as to the quota question, and in therefore ignoring the meat industry’s own prediction of future famine? .
Where are we? Up a blind\^- ley? Well, we told you'^not to read this, • But. sinc^s'du’ve come this far, why no^all be confused together? Yoq kre? That’s fine. So are we.

Let’s AH Get Confgsed
A Good Start"Bielatively weak opposition’’ is
-.the latest description of our progress on the mainland of Italy. One correspondent who accompanied the Canadian contingent reports that it landed without firing more than a few shots. Ger man' sources report that Italian defense units have withdrawn to the mountains. All this, although in'sharp contrast to the first reports o f sharp fighting yesterday,
|j saema to reveal that once again .aa In fiicily, a landing operation baa been Carried out most .sub ceasfully, without encountering the type of opposition ■ which
|I would be expected of Hitler’s boasted "Fortress Europe/’ This
Ij la the second time the Axis has *1 had its opportunity to enact the
*1ae<tond Dunkirk" it has so often ttireatened, and the second time tt has failed to make good on its threat, even Jth'ough, once again. We c li^ ly “ telegraphed" our coming punch.
|| T h e campaign for southern Xbaly thus seems, - so far, to be fSUing into the pattern of Sicily
ralatlvely easy landings, to be iMlowed by sterner delaying ac- tllotu as we progress inland. After Ms easy beginning, Sicily finally .♦avaloped some pf the most stub
fighting of the war, all pro- by the G»mana who want-
time fbr the establiahment. of tines In northern Italy. It
Sltogetber probable that the will attempt to provide
same kind o f delaying actions southern Italy.
they do, however, they ire to be sMt with s large scale
If you are sick and tired of confusion, don’t read’ thls editorial, and we won't blame you. Life is complicated enough when it Is assumed that only Washington authorities are talented in confusion. To find Washington confusion re-echoed and intensified in the sacrosanct field of private enterprise is too, too disillusioning to be- borne. / •
This editorial is poised on the boms o f the great meat dileihma.
Let us begin by > recognizing that, for some weeks past, spokesmen for the meat industry have been demanding that'' the' War Food'Administration lift its quota limitations on the slaughter of livestock, in order to permit an orderly flow of -meat to the na- Uon’s markets,
NeJct, ,we note that - the War FoQiL.A'^mihiBtraUoR has now issued an order lifting . its quota limits,- as requested. ',,Next. this order is Interpreted
as certain to increase^ civilian supplies of meat. " I t ’s the beslf' thing that ever happened'for the whole .country," says one ' Connecticut meat magnate.
Now, just as we’re beginning to feel good about the whole thing, with a government regulation being abolished St request of private Industry, we suddenly note that there's- going- to be a meat famine next spring.
That meat famine, we are told by cattlemen, la going to be . tb* result of having too greg.t a surplus of meat slaughteVed now. Tbe meat which is now doiillng into the market', we are told, ia just “ grass" meat, minus the final fattening it ehould have to become decent meat. I f the sfiimpi* now beading for slaufhtet were held back and |. given their routine treatment, the ' would weigh aev-
The, shifting techniques by which those two key gentlemen, Governor Baldwin and Senator John A. Danaher, manage to take opposite Bides on principle without ever translating their difference into practical showdown between themselves here In Connecticut’s own . Republicanism continue to be fascinating.
A good deal of the time Governor Baldwin operates behind the theory thatr Isolationism is now dead. If isolationism is dead, Senator Danaher bbviously doesn’t exist, and therefore is no problem.
Yet no matter how many times isolationism Is pronounced dead by Governor Baldwin, it has a habit of bouncing iMtck to life again, sometimes In a manner which permits on equivocation on the part of the governor. On surh occasions, he take# his stand openly and completely. , On one such occasion, before he proclaimed it dead, he was preparing to oppose it, as represented by Senator Danaher, at a 1941 meeting of- the Republican State Central. Committee. But that n’aa the near-
. est he ever came 'to personal showdown with Danahec,A t other times, he hSa operated
close to Wendell WUlkie, and, aa at the famous Westport meeting, received that gentleman’s praise for his own courageous non-isoia- tionlsm, and then used the same platform to infer that the party stilt had a place fbr Danaher,
In the same thin Ice technique of "we’re against isolationism, but not against you. John,” the Baldwln-Bradley manageiqent at the last Republican state Convention loade'd ttaelf down with non- isolaUonlst atmosphere and oratory, and then st^e-managed a dramatic “surprise" entrance by Danaher. '.x
This week a combination of that technique, plus a lucky dovetailin g 'o f timetables, finds Governor Baldwin able 'to greet two visiting Congruamen stumping the state against isolationism, - and significantly range himself alongside their, crusade, and aiao finds Governor . Baldwin then immediately leaving the state Ju,st in time for it to be impossible for him to attend, of all things, a meeting of tbe Republican 'State
-Central Committee at which Senator Danaher will be present, presumably for-that exposition of his case which s minor historical In- cloent called Pearl Harboi once unfortunately delayed. Senator Danaher will thus be allowed to keep his State C^tra l Committee date alone, without Baldwin in bis originally scheduled rote of rebuttal."
'This will be moat comfortable all around,''arid will avoid any unnecessary dramatics such as mighL-Occur if the Governor had too clear ah opportunity to translate bis own beliefs against isolationism, dead or alive, into poinl- blSLrik relationship with Danaher.
So it has gone on,' now,, for month* and even years, and, as li^nator Danaher Ja ^vlously engaged in . building all possible fences fo r '1944, so It seems likely to go on, ’ --vvith Governor Baldwin quite comfortable as be espouses the non-lsolatlonlst , view on the nationaT scene. and, at the same time, avoids any embarrassing conflict with the
—tsolatlonlat. point of view' aa I t ' flourishes In his own - United -Stotes Senator. Far from fearing that a house divided against itself cannot stand, it seenss to b< the clear theory o^the Bald- wln-Danaher dlsugrement cor- 'diale that a house divided la a formula for pleaaing all voters, so that both IsoIatTonlato and non-isolationists will all be sura , vote the Republican ticket
next time.

Editorial—By S. Burton HeathNew style Labor Day-
La bor Day used to be an occasion when those who work for a living stopped working in order -to pay tribute to. the fact that they were workers.
It isn’t any more. Since Pearl Harbor there ‘hasn’t been time for that sort of egoistic class self-expression. There is work to be done —More work still, notwithstanding the favorable progress o f the war, than we'have plant and manpower to do.’ So this' is another new-style* Labor Day, on -which Labor means work as usual.
It might well be stretched to mean work more than usual. Sinca. the man at the lathe can not.
patriotically, take the day off to celebrate, any more than the farm, er can leave his potatoes undug and bis pigs unfed and his cows unmilked, would it not be a fine gesture for turning out just a little rnore work than he ever has done in any previous day?
The future of the world still rests upon American labor. We cannot do it all. We are not expected to do it.all, But.because of the vast industrial resources of the United States— our plant, opr akill, our ingenuity, our know-how, our enormous supplies of most raw materials and manpower, our distance from the scenes of actual belligerency— It is we alone who can sup^y the armaments, muni
tions, foodstuffs Slid other supplies with which this war can be won.'
Mussolini has fallen; Badoglio is quaking; Hitler is on thS akids; the tide has begun to turn, however slowly, agalrist Japan. No longer need we fear that the Alliea might be driven to complets defeat.
But defeat is relative. We sbUl have lost the war if we do not win it absolutely, uhconditionallyi overwhelmingly. And even today, if we were to alow down toO much, w'a might lose the complete victory that we need.
So for Labor Day, 1943, let each Individual do hiS little part toward a productivity that will surpass sn^hing this nation, or the world, ever -'before has witnessed.

Which, when you stofi to think of it, is a pretty shocking conclusion to have forced on yOu.
Not Baaisj for Judgment Also, it seems to me. It Is a
conclusion which, while it may be correct enough, takes no account of a great deal of concrete evidence tbat we, Ss a nation, are not to be judged entirely By what we talk about or even by what, in detail, we superficially think about Perhaps what we fundamentally feel is of much more profound importance even if that fundamental feeling is more or less subconscious; and I ItoUeve that it is the exception, rather than the rule, when an American, eight light minded or intellectueU, Of Blender morality or the highest- principles, would not elect to go defiantly to his or her rather than lose this war to either Jap or Nazi; arid that be would habitually function In 'keeping with
One of the strangest things in'9of ten thousand of our young the world, to me. Is the form and | men. or a hundred thousand, or a character of the Interest in the million or more, war which is takejj by an astonishing numt.ei o f ' Americans. I get about very little, to be surO, and my opportunities for hearing casual arid informal acquaintanee- with-acqualntance discussloii of war topics are not numerous, but even at that one might expect, it would seem, to hear more or less frequent mention, st least, of such subjects as the big-summer offensive of the Russians, or soms speculation as to when lbs Allied Invasion of the European continent i most likely to begin.
There .are many millions of American families, who have relatives in the armed forces, and since the life of every one of these is more or less likely to be put in hazard when the peak of America’s military effort is reached, you might naturally suppose that euch. a question aa thia latter would be a t the forefront of almost everybody’s mind. Ygt the fighting part of the war, past, present or future, qeems to be just about ,.ths last tWng that people kre thinking about—or, at all event, talking about.
Do Not Follow' War-Indeed one may not be wholly
wrong’ if he concludes that ths great majority of Americans a?« not following the course o f— the war .at all. They feel sufe of victory but have little or no understanding as to how. when or whkre Ut may be arrived at. They read the front page headlines in toe newspapersr to be sure, and Jbme of them llaten frequently to wbat some chain-lightning radio broadcaster reports, about toe progress of event, over the air.But I suspect that those who actually read the newspapers’ military news with any definite idea of keeping lit touch with toe alt- uation are relatively few. and that those who derive anything tn the way of soUd informatimi from toe radio concerning it are still fewer. The latter, in particular, requires more- than a alight degree of concentration—and most p ^ le 's e e m to be mentally concentrating on other things. I think it highly probable that in ths last several weeks several times mors m*— thought in this cotmtry has been given to the question of the lifting of ths pleasure driving ban than to that of whether the Invasion at Europe will coat toe lives
that Underlying devotion to freedom—if ho only had been endowed with a swse of proportion.
It is' toe absenOe of that sense of proportion, I feel sura, Which mote than anything elw accounts for some of toe strangeat manifestations in human, behavior; -It often makes lis do perfectly ludicrous things. -
Most of us, ) think, ate likely to be distracted from bur main line of thought, or interest, at almost any moment, by sheefly trifling incidents, particularly If the incidents are annoying. The, presence of a mosquito oo the bridegroom’s neck, for instance, has more toaR, once Interfered with that persohhge’s prompt and orderly response to *the vital question of whether he takes this women to be his wedded wife, at' an outdoor wedding ceremony. Which doesn’t in the least prove that, in any Instance,' the groom wasn’t -fundamentmlly interested in getting married. It does indicate, howePer, that he had not trained himself against distractions from ' a major line ' of thought.-,
UneontroUed ThinkingI f the people as a whole, start'
lag tn childhood imd ln ths schools as wsll as in tbe home, had bstt Uught to exorcise a reasonable degree of control over their thihlt- ing and their -emotions toers
would probably be, in these gravely serious times, fSr less of this flying.^off at a tangent over such proportionately negllg^lble matters as whether or not one can get confectioner’s sugar on th« canning allot’ment or whether one’s gallon and a half of gas per week can be used this, that or some other way.
The mosquitoes and •-flies of rationing and restrictions are pretty , small annoyances, after all, compared with the foul breathed dragons o f e-vll that 'have been, rearing their horrid headiTyisr every horizon In the world, seeking whom they might next de- voui^v And I guess there are very few among us, when all is said and done,^who don’t darn well know it. But toe fact still ra- maina that there are.mllUona of UB who spend so much of out tiriie being hot and 'bothered by the insects that, it ia only ■ occ^ slonally that any rifiriutes remain to be devoted .to toe actual roar and smoke of the struggle between our own defenders qnd
monsters o f horror acroi thfr-seaa.
List’s get a grip on our Own thinking and emotions. Let’s see if we can’t function aa sensate men - and women and not as little children and jitterbugs;—not just for an infrequent now and then, but every day and all day.
We’ve got a peace , to win, you knowT'without which toe winning of the war will be as empty as the winning of the last one was. And we'U lose that peace, sure shooting, if we-waste our time stewing indignantly over our petty little war time mosquito-bites.
east of Florida and cutting through Haiti, toe Caribbean Sea, a tiny bit of Colombia, Peru, a bulge of Brazil and then Peru again, emerges from the north- west-south-eaat Peruvian coast upon the Pacific itself, and in your plane you would not fly over continental land again until you were far do^n tt e lorig Chilean coast and heade'd for the Strait of Magellan. In other wor<Ja by far the greater part o f' the entire South American continent lies to the east of us, Instead of to the west.
I know all this because I have just beep studying a grand new map of the Pacific that came with toe National Geographic Magazine. I have known It before, of course. In s vague sort of way. But I always forget and, like, everybody else, I find myself thinking of toe Pacific as an ocean which, In a very general way, begins st a north-and-south line which cuts through San Fran- -cisco and ia continuous from Alaska to Cape Horn, which is bounded on the west—in a mentally wobbly way—by Japan, Australia and toe Philippines.
Which is about aa acurats as imagining a barrel to be a box.
I learn that the "farthest west" point of South America—which la in Peru cloee to toe Ecuadorean border—is no fu l le r west than Cleveland, Ohio, though it ia several hundred miles farther West tbsn toe point where ws reached toe Pseifle in our plane.
Well, that will ba enough of that for today, I imagine. I have it fairly straight in my mind— with the Geographic map right alongside. But in a few days, or a few weeks, any way, I ’U have the Pacific moved back where I ’ve always had it, and " toe South American continent aboved back Where it belpnge anfi another thousand miles or so added to the distance from Brazil to -Dakar, juat in case.
You've got to catch tltem younger than I am to teach them accurate geography. And by toe way It seems to me tola war tiige la a mighty good time for toe schools to make a Mrioua . beginning at It.

Wlllimantlc, Sept. 4—(,P)—The gala opening of the 25th annual country fair of the Willlmantic Lodge of Elks was blighted by tragedy last night as Hubert J. Kegler, 40, a member of the lodge, was wounded fatally sa he operated a shooting gallery.
A .22 bullet, which police said was fired accidentally by a customer at the gallery pierced his forehead. Doctors pronouriced him dead on arrival at toe Windham Community Memorial hospital.
Held on Technical Charge Police Chief Grant Bombria
identified the customer as Rextord Santerre, 28, of Moosup, and sal4 he was’ being held on a techrtlOBi charge pending'a coroner’s inquest.
The shoot-tog was described as “ purely accidental" by Policeman Charles 'Ve'rtefeullle after talking to Santerre arid other eys-wit< nesses. Kegler was crouching behind toe gun rack, he said they told him, and straightened up as Santerre fired at a target.
Few patrons of the fair witnessed the fatality, their attention be-: Ing focussed on the opening exercises of the three-day affair.

The above committee will handle MaachMteria quota of $750,000 tor tha third war bond lalea campaign. It will be well to remember that Mancbeeter has overaubscrib- ed Ita quota In'every drive. Few people realize the tremendoue amount at work necessary to put on a drive of this sort. Tliere are numberless meeting* with various offlclala and many time* in different parts o f the State.
H ie excellent manner in which the campaigns have been conducted here in toe past are due, for the most part, t o the organising genius of Mr.'' Alvord.

No. End Firemen In'principal Part
For many years the North End hat been content, apparently, to follow along with whatever plana made on any lubject. The Manchester Improvement- Aaaociation, under the leaderehlp of Frank Nackowski, however, has decided to do things on a broad scale. Sensing that there was another live wire organization at the North End Mr. Nackowski contacted the Manchester Fire department and as a result toe Field Day committee above selected.
The manner In which these two organizations handled toe stamp drive during July and August drew favorable comments from Herbert B. House, general '^hairnum of that committee. Now both have combined to make this event one of the outdoor features of the summer and indications are . that \toere will be' a big turnout Mon- oay afternoon and evening.

Negotiations, by Von. Hannec- kan and Wetner Best German
minister to Denmark, to have DbdIsIi. political leaders set up a new government to replace . that o t fonnar Prim e' Minister Eric Scavenius continued todky without success, the press bureau said. VOD Hannecken was reported as anxious to have an administrative <K>uncU of j 18 department chiefs taka over .the government. .
Tile bureau said that even if the military dictatorship tk abolished "it Is evident that;there can be no return to the-ktate of affairs aa they were before last Sunday” When the Nazis took over Denmark to suppress the mounting wave o f sabotage, aimed at German war production and troop movements.
George H. Waddell, chairman of the Manchester War Cbuncil, advised all householders today Who use anthraclti coal, for heating purpo.ses, to make provisions to bum wood during the months of September and October to save their coal • supplies for the severe Winter months. ,
Mr. Waddell stated that the Manche.ster coal dealers cannot slipply the necessary coal for homes In Manchester during the coming winter aa the. -fnines are
■not making deliveries and therefore the loical dealers cannot supply the present demand for coal, tior can they make any, promises for the future.
0 «t Supply of Wood Chairman Waddell advises that
home owners and tenants secure an auxiliary supply of wood at jonce, and bum the wood during the nest two months thereby consgpdng the supply of coal for the; severe months, beginning aliout Novem'hej' 1.
Mr. Waddell stated further that it is almost impossibt^ to purchase wood at thlk time . and therefore it will be necessary for the re.' ldents of Manchester to make plans for the cutting and hauling of their own wood. He advised that arrangements should be made through farmers and woodland owners in this territory. He stated that he is going to take up the matter with the Board of Selectmen to see If some arrangements cannot he made to use the town-owned property for wood cuttlnjj.

Sadly shaking his head, the youthful(gO'dell turned to an observer and moaned, “ Heck, the subs on last year's squad finished first every time, and you know how little help to ue they were. It simply means we haven’t much.”

No, nothing evan faintly resembling one,” laments tha 82-year-old Odell, the former University of Pittsburgh ball carrier who Is starting bia second season here.
From a equad o f 46, half its original size, Odell has been concentrating on a team of eight holdovers from the 1941 eleven. Including five regulars; two ax-OoIumbla playere with hardly any experience and a former Harvard back.
"Frankly," asserts Odell, "I don’t want to moan about it, but I have not .tha ellghteet Idea how good this team will be.”
With a Yale eleven (and baraly any capable reserves) of about the same speed, didn’t Howie delight old (and young) bluee last fall by turning In five victories, including triumphe over Harvard and Princeton, and remove tha Bulldogs from footbell'e doghouse?' "Yes,” says Odell, "but we were
very lucky.”Actually it was hard work, and

The Elis will operate once again from a single wingback, and stress solid, sound fundamental football without frills and Intricate maneuvers. There'll be lots of passes.

(ir>-^There are imeubstentiated rumors that Legs Hawley piit traps in froAt o f every mouse, gopher and chipmunk hole from the Rock- bound crags of Cheat River to the waterlogged lands of the Ohio bottoms.
Maybe a linesman might come out.
Without the benefit o f any eer vies players' and held up only by a half-dozen vets and a thin mesa of freshmen, the MounUineere of West Ifirginia University nevertheless ara trying to get a football team On tha fUld for eight games.
Athletic Director Roy M. "Lege" Hawley and C)oach Ira Errett Rodgers have just round up aa breathless a beef hunt as ever you did see and have produced a roster o f 85 squadmen with which to battle a bunch of Navy Pre-Flight terrors and assorted behemoths from other schools.
The schedule begins September 25 and ends November 18.
About the only good thing that happened to them was th« f(ict that the Army let go of Kenny Fryer because of a bad knee. Fryer was a sophomore backfleid star In 1940.
Besides Fryer, Rodgers cin depend on Tony PeuUn, senior tackle; Bob Dutton, senior quarterback; Charley Helinskl two- time backfleid letter man, and John Lucente, eophomere fullback. Oh, yes, and Scotty Hamilton, a basketball etar, is trying his jiand at footbaU. The rest are few returning second stringers and a gang of yearlings culled from every com er of the state.
Rat” Rodgere, 1919 All-American resuming the coaching job he held in the late 20’s, has a situation just the reverse of that which faced BUI Kern and the 1942 Moun- tlneers. Kern, now a Navy lieutenant coaching pre-fllghters at Del Monte, Calif., had plenty of line last year bift was weak on backfleid men.
many valuable prises being offered to the winners. The East Hartford membsrship has vreally worked hard to put. the trials aoroaa this year and entries have been received from Massachusetts, Rhode Is-1 land and New York as well aa nearby Connecticut cities.
Like Fraoola'e Entry Many local dog owners like
Blinker, Lee Fraoola'e dog In this meet. Lee bee had the dog working out for the past six weeks and told this writer that It was in fine shape for the many field trials which will be held In thla section during the fall. Several new doge to thla section will also ba entered today and a regular f l ^ t la expected before a winner la naffied
Who Said SheUs?Reports from Washington dur
ing the past week indicate fhat there will be plenty of ehells for the hunters this season. Bht the local sportsmen view this etate ment as just anothsr story out of the nation’s capital. A checkup on many o f the local stores where ammunition is aold railed to jBnd any large stocke and for the most part there la none on hand with prospects not any too bright. Sari CampbeU told this writer he did not know just how many would be allotted to him this year and would not make any prediction as to when he would gat any. The attus' Uon was acute'last year, also.
Btvde Are Tame The other night a local deg
owner waa flying hla bird dog a workout near his horns. In fact he just started this week to get the dog In ahape. After some thirty or fortp minutes o f real work be sUrted back to bie home On the way the dog flushed eev-
No one has managed to catch a larger baas than Bv Bentley’s four.pound 6 ounce entry to date. Sevenl good catches were reported laat week but none came anywhere near matching the one entered by Bentley.
Warns o f FireGama wardens report that the
woods are very dry for this time of year. Those who are working out their dogs are warned to be extra careful xfrom now on. Forest fires ars dangerous at any time viA if a little care Is taken now It will mean better hunting later.
A TaU StoryAn ardent fisherman, going out
to the Notch pond early laat Sun day morning, tells this one. Walk' ing up Nigger Hill, eo-called, be just about reached the halfway mhrk when three skunks, two young ones and a sedate older,one came out of the bushes along side the old fireworks shack. There was nothing the wo'jld-be fisherman oould do so he kept right on walking without doing anything to disturb any o f the anlihals. In front of the New England House ths young ones dashed into the underbrush on the north side of the road but the older one atayed where It waa, a few feet to the right and just behind the story teUar. Getting near the pond, or just- at the bend in tha road the young ones rejoined the procession. No damage to tha would- be fisherman and as he turned Into the driveway leading down to the pond the skunks stopped and watche dhlm until he stopped and took out bia tackle. ‘ilien they g(ravely resumed their walk up the hill and out of sight. Hie ■igb of relief rippled the placid waters of Boltori Notch pond.
Service Men Like Fishing;

Sportsmen Throughout Country Busy Right Now Raising Money To Buy Equipment.
' By Harry Oraysoit NEA Sports IMltor
New York, Sept. 4—It's dllfl- cult to imagine how much It means to men in uniform to receive some, thing from home—a letter, everi a p<»tcard, but, especially, useful equipment they cannot obtain.
It's not only because of the enjoyment derived. The service man likes to be reminded that someone is thinking of him, pulling for him to win. It Is a wonderful feeling to know that he Is not merely being taken for granted. -
Before Pearl Harbor there were 20,000,000 fishermen in the United States. Today a good short of them are on battle fronts where there is practically no opportunity for recreation.'
As Philip Wylie, author of fish' ing stories and vice-chairman of the tackle committee of the International Gams and Fish JUsocla- tion, points out, they ara the men who trolled for pickerel In Wiscon' sin, cast white millers to trout In Oregon, pulled In Mtsaissippl cat' fish and rooted tarpon In Texas.
Now they have an opportunity to cast for trout in . streams throughout the world, to catch fish that break water in lakes In China and off tha beaches of the seven sees.
They have time off from military duties. All tiiey require U tackle. There is an overwhelming demand for i t

Has Rhythm
An acute skin inflammation known as a boll is said to be exceedingly rare among those who work in tin; however, it is a familiar' commonplace among the general population.
The causes of boils must be considered to arise from both the outside and the inside of the body. The outside cause is . the invasion of the akin by staphylococci, which Invasion may pecur by way of a hair follicle, through a sweat gland, or through a small scratch or cut. However, the body aeetns to be able to resist such an infection o f the akin when its defensive powers are normal. It is only when the body is "run down" and resistive powers are thereby lowered, that the staphylicocci gain a foOthoia.'" .The. most important causea of boils are therefore the cause arising on- the inside of the body.
Boils are encouraged to develop by faulty eating habits and particularly by the use of tkh heavy food wh^h creates the' acidosis soil in which the ir.icro-organisnts will grow. Enervation ii also an important predisposing cause.
Constant irritation of the skin through' continued rubbing, sometimes plays a part in favoring The coming of a boil. For example, when the back of the neck is rubbed with a stiff collar, the neck may become the site of a boil. Changes In blood chemistry ' may induce a crop of boils, for example, the changes in the blood chemistry seen in diabetes may make the patient susceptible to boils.
A boll iS^an acute inflammation of . the skin ' occurring within a limited area. It usually first appears as a small ., pimple which within a few hours ja sun-ounded by a dark red aweUin|:. At thia stage, the painful sensation reaches its height, later becoming a marked tenderness rather than actual pain. Th£ local swelling, increases and within several dayd will come to a head, or come to $ point, being In the shape of a cone.. At this stagb the pressure underneath will cause a discharge of pus, and later the core will come but.
One of the most important rules to observe when nursing a boil is to leave.it alone. Picking a t 'it , squeezing it, or opening before it comes to a point, will only make matters worse. Most boils. should not, be opened M fore 36, or 48

hours have passed. If It ii desired to hurry matters along, try using a warm poultice which may make the boil come to a head a little sooner than it vould otherwise.
Once a boil has formed, keeping the skin clean should become a first consideration. Strict cleanliness of the skin surface will help to prevent the spread of the Infec- tion.
Probably most''people open boils at home, however, it la a good plan to have a large boll lanced by a doctor. The boil is lanced for the purpose of allowing the escape of dead tissue and to hasten the removal of the core. Lancing also relie vea. the tension.
When bolls form repeatedly, check over your living habits to make sure you are eating correctly arid are avoiding enervation. When they keep on coming in spite of good habits ot living, It is a good plan to consult your physician and let him give you a physical checking over tc find out what la wrong. There is an old saying that each boil I* worth five dollars, this saying being baaed on the belief that, the boil hastens the discharge of systemic impurities. However, there is no need, to live In sUch a way that' auch Impurities accumulate within the body. When you stop to think bow much
I suffering a boil causes. It seems to me to be more sensible to figure it is worth five dollals not to have one, ■

ddn’t tell me ha was this allergic0 photographers. ”
‘•I didn’t know It myself," Hildy•anted. "Something must have jinoyed him this morning. We’ll lave to retreat to prepared po»> Iona."

Mahoney, holding a slight lead •aixaived sanctuary. Dead ahead
. VMM a high hedge and there was n opening in the hedge. Mahoney iguaed not. He dived through he opening Uke a homing rabbit, onah at hla elbow, Hildy fell to he rear.
Beyond the opening Jonah and ifahohey found themselves in Tsaa-covered alleyway flanked on Ither side by more hedgea. They kipped nimbly up it. aware of ootateps potinding behind. An- ■ther opening loomed up. They jlungad through it only to be con- ronted with another allqy$ray tanked by other hedges. The
•;>oim(ltog in back was fainter now, •ut over the intricacy of hedgea ;4ime words suob as would have hocked a bar$ea.
Jonah took the lead, raced up .he path, turned a corner and al noat collided with H. L. Channlng ' "Gr-r-roosh," said H. L. Chan- ling, and pounced for him.
Jonah wheeled like a startled intelope. Mahoney had already tad the forethought to wheel. The lUtatrVtched fingers of H. L- Chan- 'ilng missed Jonah’s collar by an Inch. He stumbled and fell side- jVlse into the greenery. Little j;ems o f profanity crackled on the ^nornlng air.5 It took Jonah and Mahoney no
I'^me at all to put distance between ihemselvea and Mr. Channlng. .rben, however, a labyrinth • ot ledges surrounded them. Early ;3irlstian martys, now to the cata- x>mbs, could have appreciated •heir problem.
But, all at once. Hildy Chan.- . ling appeared, djinnlikc.
"Hast!" she whispered.They followed her'along other
;raaS‘ COvered passages and finally smerged into open country. No me spoke until they were again n the shadow of the wall.
"What was that, for the love of i!*eteT" Jonah aaid then, wiping his .'ace.: "A maze," Hildy told. him. "It ’s .mpied after the one at' Hampton >)urt."
"Well,” , said Jonah, "it’s sure ny idea of a better mousetrap. 3ut don't you think we ought to
1 'tat a little farther away ? ”' "Oh, no. Father ' never could • ■nanage the maze.- He’ll be In there
ill day If I don’t rescue him. Lis- •en!”
She held up her hand. From afar mme a faint baying. "Dammit,
' tat me out of here, soirieb^y. I’m toing to kill somebody."
I "You know, Hildy,” said Jonah, : T 'don’t think your'father’s in the . mood to talk business."
"Paaslbly not.” Hildy puckered : aar wonderful forehead:' "So what ; lo we do now, Jonah?"
ttons.""E h ?"“ I mean, wa've got to keep
touch with one another."This, to Jonah’s ears, was sweet
music. “ And how,” ' ho said, enthusiastically.
“ But we can’t go on meetihg under walls and behind trees like fugitives. And having Uncle Cal jump out at us."
“n i say we can’t.” said Jonah, struck by this girl’s intelligence.
"What we need,” said Hildy, "is a base of operations. A private one."
"Well, how about this cottage I’ve hired? You must know the place. It’s called Brookvlew and
rented it from a guy named Rand." ,
Hildy shook her bead. “ It won’t do. You see, Jonah, I have difficulty getting away from here. I’ll explain what I mean later. Right now let's settle this base of operations thing." Suddenly, her white teeth clicked. “ I’ve got it. We’ll use the Taj Mahal.”
All these different uniforiau one sees today are about as confusing to the layman as they were to the Negro taxi driver in Washington who said: "Ah-ve nievah seen so many uniforms as there le here now, -and so few eoldlere.”

"My girl friend is simply crazyabout uniforms!” /
Jonah started. "I don't want to seem to throw wrenches into the works,” he said politely, "but isn’t that a little fa r?"
HJldy laughed. "W e’ve got a private Taj Mahal of our own, Jonah. It’s a kind o f—of awful pavilion thing that Aunt Mag built here. We 'just call it the Taj Mahal for fun."
' ‘Well,” said Jonah, "who anl I to snoot the T ij Mahal ? , -But if your father found out that . .
“ He won’t. He neve^ goes near the Taj. He agyS it's an abomination. If wp!rb careful, we could use the place.”
'They 'nad proceeded a mere 100 yard8 when, suddenly, Hildy grabbed Jonah’s arm and pulled him behind a byatanding buah.
Peering cautiously over the shrubbery, Jonah perceived a tall fem ale'of vigorous step and purposeful mien striding across the greenward. Her costume was mannish, buslnessUke; a white shirtwaist, skirt of somber black and heavy, tan brogues. Her black hair was brushed sleekly down and she wore pince-nez secured by a black ribbon. Here, thought JO‘ nab, was one who . would brook no shillyshally.
"Who is it? " he asked, jn a low voice. "The local truant officer?"
It’s Meath/" Hildy explained. "Father’s new s e c r e t a r y . 1 wouldn’t trust her as far as 1 could throw her ’’
"W hy?""Jiist a hunch," confessed Hildy.
“ She’s only been here a few weeks, but she’s a snooper of the first water. Arid I think that one of her duties is to watch me.”
"That,” aaid Jonah promptly, "is my idea of a swell job.”. “ Jonah, you're sweet. But you
don’t understand. I mean, Meath is supposed to spy on me."
“ IJaten. Hildy," Jonah said. "You’ve been hinting about fighting with your father and being in Dutch all around and now, it seems, you’re the victim of Fifth Column work. Why do they persecute you, Hildy?”
I’ll .tell you all about it soon.” Hildy promised darkly. "Right now, let's make the Taj. Meath is out of sight.”

Denver—IA‘ )— A messenger boy told Elevator Operator Albert Irby that he needed aid to locate a man for whom he had an important message. Irby took the boy to the police chief, to a police captain, to a detective, and finally, to the missing persons bureau. They finally found the message was for Irby— from his wife. And he missed the train hia wife had wired him to meet.
That great tacUdan plucked a . olade of grasa, chewed It medi- ;atlvely.
"Darned if I know," he aaid. 'It looks like we're stymied. Ma

' in her tone. “That won’t get ui inywhere."
As she spoke shs glanced at 1 ^ honey who stood to one Side in 'w I’m-at-a-loss attitude, AmL/aud- Jtnly, Jonah Logaa raallafd that this divine girl craved speech with him, alone.

Between them Hildy and Jonah gave Mahoney a leg up until he could reach thb tree which had already played a role in the inva aion o f Wlldover.
"Now," aaid Jonah, in the tone of one who has cleared the decks, “what’a with y o « ? ”
Hildy said Slowly, “Well, Jonah, our direct frontal attack seems to have failed. X had no Idea father would go beserk. But I ’m not glvtaff up."
"That’s the bid . fight," said Jo ash. "There must be some way to approach your ancient relative without having him go off like

Schools Provided With Enough Coal
The single sessions o f the High school and the early closing of the schools resulted In a saving of about 5700 In the fuel bill. It was revealed today.
The bins In the schools were filled early this spring. As a result the schools in Manchester are well provided for coal in case of a further shortage that seems likely this year.

Miss Rogers’ Will Filed
Income from Balance Of Estate Goes to Hospital for Research.The will of the late Miss Gert
rude H. Rogers, whb formerly owned the Rogers F>aper Manufacturing Company,'was filed with Judge of Probate William S. Hyde this morning. 'The worth of Miss Rogers’ estate is not known since the Inventory has not been filed.
Miss Rogers leaves the contents of her home at 65 Prospect Street to her close friend, Miss M aryO . Chapman, of 75 Forest street. She leaves an annuity of $100 s month to Mrs. Alice Hewitt, of this town, who had been In h?r employ for 16 years, "rhe Incomp from the balance of her estate is left to the Manchester Memorial hospital specifically to be used for scientific research In medical and pathological work of the hospital. To attain the use of such income the hospital budget la to be approved by Dr. Isaac Kingsbury, of Hartford, and Dr. Howard Boyd, of Manchester. The balance of the estate from which this Income Is to derive la to be held In trust by the Phoenix State Bank and Trust Company, of Hartford, and Robert S. Morris, of West Hartford.
George H. Plnney, formerly of Manchester, now o f Orange City, Florida, and the Phoenix State Bank and Trust Company, are the executors of the estate,
Since the value of the estate is not known it is difficult to estimate to what extent the hospital will benefit by the bequest. Since the Income designated for hospital use la specifically for research work It cannot he said yet how the hospital can put it, to use. There la no setup for medical or pathological research at the institution at present and it would-take a large Income to set up such a department and pay foi' a research worker.
It has been estimated thkt Mrs. Rogers’ worth Was betwMn $400,- 000 and $500,000. Her estate includes the large residence and apa- cioua grounds on Prospect street here and her winter home at Sara' sots, Florida.
Heard Along Main StreetAnd on Some of Manchester*$ Side Streets , Too
The drafting o f fathers for mill- ' tary service poses quite a serious question for draft board members. Naturally the local boards must abide by regulations, and when they are told to draft fathers the local quintet will, of course, have to do it. But the local board .la doing everything It can to forestall taking the fathers.
At a meeting In Hartford last Monday, rtight draft board members were told to Inventory their registrants to see if they could pick up here and there some on the deferred list who are not fathers. The pos.-iibi1lty exiists that aoms registrants have deferments for dependency where that dependency, no longer exists. Registrants are supposed to notify the draft board when their status changes, but some may be found who hpve fall- ^ to do that.
As long as large quotas are demanded each month there will be the ever-increaalng likelihood that tbe father group will have to be cut Into. "The Manchester board haa not been able to fill its quota the past three months despite the fact that the local registrant list haa been eombed as fine as possible. Married men are being taken wherever the circumstances of dependency are not extreme, and even. In the case, of the married men without children, the local board does Its best to hold them out i f any single men are available.
Frequently criticism is heard Involving some single registrant who isn’t in the service. In most cases these men ars on war jobs and their employers have won a place for theih on the War Manpower commission’s withdrawal program, so there la nothing the local board can do about it. ’This column has received anonymous letters abopt different persons not being draft' ed, but in every instance the writ' ar was wrong. On# of the regis- tranta waa over 58, another has an extrema dependency and atlll an other to an aircraft amployee and due to go In two montha. When you get to the bottom of most such criticisms you find that the criticner doesn’t know the facts in the case.

' One local woman didn’t have ice cold beer when, she got home the other day. She went into a Main street package store and insisted that she be sold a whole case of beer that was ice cold. ’The clerk tried to tell her that she should take a few bottles Ice cold and the rest not on the ice. She said she had * big party of friends coming and hhe had to' have a case o f beer that waa ice cold.
Finally the clerk packed a case o f beer from the refrigerator and started out to her car. 'Then they tried to open the car door. It wouldn’t give. In some manner the door lock had jammed. 'The clerk put the case of beer on the roadway right in the sun and went back to hts job. The wonian hurried to a telephone to get a repairman front a local garage to open the automobile door. He arrived about 20 minutes la^er and all this time the "ice cold’’ beer stood In the broiling sun.
The package store clerk came out to watch the repairman open the door. While qtanding there he heard his beer customer remark, "Oh. dear. I’ve got to go to Hartford to meet a train and I’m so afraid I’ll be late.’ ’
"What about the Ice cold beer that you Iiad to have Ice cold?’ ’ the store clerk asked.
"Oh, I can put It In my Ice box when I get home,” she replied.
Naturally t)ie store clerk kept his thoughts to himself seeing that the customer Is always right.

Bbard o f Selectman - Samuel J. ’Turklngton,
Tow-n Cleric , Dated . s t , Msnehester ' this 1st
day o f September, 1943.
We believe The Hera'id prints as much news and uses as many pictures of the service men as many of the large city dailies. We are glad to do it. ’These bhef personals or stories of the doings of the men in the service interest their families, friends and townspeople, and reach about 800 Manchester boys all over the world, as nearly one- third of those 800 Heralds are mailed overseas. A t first thought this might iMiem to be a source of considerable Income. ’The reverse la true. ’The constant changing of lengthy addresses means more clerical work, and the high- postage rates has made it imperative to raise the subscription price as of September 1.
Stories o f valor and brief no- ' tices appearing In the “About Town" columns have been clipped and filed, alphabetically,' in this office affording a comprehensive history of the great majority of l^ys who have gone out from Mpncnes- ter to serve their country and of whom we are all prou4. For much of this news we arie indebted to the mothers, or to the Public Relations departments of the camps, naval stations or air bases. The latter as a rule are prmted form letters, little but tbe name is personal and occasionally a mother Is offended because we do not use all this material. With restrictions on both paper and metal we have to draw the line somewhere.

'The picture of the Can Can Girls, 1943 version of Gag Nineties entertainment, which will be one of the featured acts at the Labor Day field day at the north end Monday, sort of stirred memories among the older residents. ’These memories go back more than forty years ago to wha't was then known as Apel’s Opera House. And within the shadow of this old theater the Can Can Girls will do their stuff. Apel's Opera house staged some great shows, “Way Down East," "East Lynne," "U^cle Tom’s Cabin,” etc. Once in awhile naughty burlesque shows were |W(t on mych to the delight of the male population and the chagrin of the reform set. Maiily-'a man used to watch the trains come In with the ’ ’show people” and greet the. chorines with “ Oh you kiddo,” and a peculiar whistle that today is described as a "wolf call.”
The chorus girls were, for the most part, buxom and painted without the glamour of today’s lassies. Usually .they were judged on their ability to look good to the male population. Many a man will recall how he used to think up excuses to "go down town” on show nights when there was a "girlie show” at Apel’s. Friend wife, however. usually found something else for hubby to do and the audiences, for the most part, were what was then known as ” gay young blades” ' sowing their wild oats. Few women ever attended the show and for obytous reasons. Respectable dowagers would watch, from a safe dlstanta t6 aee which of the young ladies dared defy tradition about the "stage." ’The Can_Can girls will be back Monday but they will not cause the commotion their stage sisters did forty years ago.
Town to Take Over Property
Starts Action to Own Old Foley Estate; History o f the Tract.’The town haa started action to
take over 13 lots in what is k n o ^ on the present town records /as Prospect Hill, terrace, but to some of the older residents as the Tony Pastor estate. To the still older residents it was known as the Foley farm. ’The property In quertion is bounded on the north by Farm road,'and faces Prospect street.
Tony Pastor in FamilyOne of the members of the Foley
family, Josephine, married Tony Pastor, the famous originator of vaudeville shows, and made her home In New York. 'There were other members of the family who had an interest In the property, among thrtn Annie, who married A. E. Goddefroy, a railroad man, who later became the owner of the property.
Much LitigationBecause of trouble in settling
the estate, the matter was In the New York courts for many yeara and the Manchester property being part of It, the result was one of the longest documents to' appear in the local probate' records.
By the time that the caae was settled, the proposed purchasers who had plotted the land, had gone out of business and now the town will take over the propertj' for taxes. The old house that was on the property waa allowed to decay, also the bani. All o f the members o f the Foley family have died and under the Will that was under protest, the property would have gone to relatives o f A. E. Goddefroy in German)^.

Holiday Toll May Be High
Last Year's Total of 350 Deaths Apppoach- ed. If Not Topped.By The Associated Press
The nation’ s Labor Day weekend 4eath toll—swelled by one of the worst disasters, in American railroad history and a hotel fire —today-., appeared to have approached, if nob, surpassed, last year’s total of 350 fabaUties.
Although''traffic, drowning and miscellaneous deaths and the hotel fire accounted for only 286 lives over the three-dsy holiday, a complete. list of those killed in the wreck of .the Congressional Limited "at Philadelphia may bring the total above the 1942 figure.
Early today 58 were known defid* in the Pennsylvania railroad crash at Philadelphia, but city officials there said the total would be much higher, one estimating it at 150. Three trainmen were dead in the wreck o f the New York Central’s Twentieth Century Limited at Canastota. N. Y.
The bodies o f 48 persons were removed from the ruins o f a Houston, Texas, hotel swept by an early morning fire.
The National Safety Ckiuncll haa predicted between 300 and 500 violent deaths this holiday. In 1941 there were 8l4 killed, and the year before. 514.

Mackinac Island, Mich.. Sept. 7. _ ,/P ,_W ith at bristling indictment of what it termed New Deal ” in- | strumenta of Fascism,” the, Repub- | llcan Home Front committee de-1 manded today th^ establishment of a government agency with full | powers over the production, distribution and prices of food.
The committee, headed by Senator Taft of Ohio and numbering Governors Thomas E. Dewey of New York and John W. B rickerof Ohio among its members, urged the Republican Advisory council of 49 in a lengthy report to offer the country a program of increased production and Improved distribution of food.
Its report went to council micm- bers as they met in executive m s- sion'to consider a recommendation by its Foirelgn Policy committee, headed by Senator Vandenberg, of Michigan, for a statement of international peace aims.
Believe Fight Avoided Council -members leaving the
executive session this morning reported a belief that a fight over international -cooperation to preserve peace had been avoided by the drawing of the lesohition embodying ideas of sgvenil factions.. The council was to meet later in the day to act on the two state- menU of party principles.
Inveighing against’ what it cliaracterized as the j|(ew Deal's regulation of Americdlt life by “ bureaucratic decree.” the Taft committee asserted that the' mdi- vidual initiative o f citizens and particularly farmers should be subje c t^ to “ Aiinimum control from Washington."
Full Producliou Hampered It charged that the administra

A headquarters statement disclosed that the enemy airfield had not been used.^by .the Japane.se .for months and. was overgrown with kunal grass lour to iilx feet high. The field, flat and level, eaaUy can be placed into operating condition. ,j '
Hrtps Close Trap Capture of the airfield effective
ly helped close the trap on the defenders of Lae and Salamaua.
The paratroopers landed on three sides of the Japanese air drome, guided by three -smoke screens which outlined the field perfectly.
As soon ^ the paratroops landed, ' the Australian ground force ata.|rted to cross the nearby Mark- M m river by means of a pontoon bridge. . Other Aussies floated down the river in assault boaU to the site of the field.
First' Lieut. Monte Kleban, San Antonio, Tex., who jumped with the paratroopers, said the Aus- traHan .ground force which had scoured Uwamps for enemy detachments during its flverday march, joined the airborne troops several hours after they hadlanded. ^ ^ , .u"We saw one another .at the same moment," said Klebands. an asaiatant public relations officer in MacArthur’s command.

•Stockholm. Sept. 7—'-Pt—The Allied tnvasidh .of Italy was reported today to have caught Adolf Hitler ; and members of his general staff | at odds over the question of whether the^German Army should attempt to jnake a stand along the Po river or withdraw to positions behind the Alps.
According to a Swedish observei who cannot be identified by name but who had just returned after a long aUy in Orm any. Hitler is in- sisUng—against the advice of his generals—that an attempt should be made to halt the Allies at the Po. '
The Germans already have erected huge fortifications along the Po, the traveler said, the result of a deal made between Hitler and Benito Mussolini before' the latter’a fall from power. This understanding provided for the withdrawal of Axis troops from most of Italy to the Po river with little more than delaying actions against the Allies further south. , —
