To what extent the ihsncs fnil to balance is anybody's guess. TIK! Democrats insist thai there Klinnid not be any change at the While House. The New Deal is unpopular, but then! is a (|ncslion whether the dishalisfnelion is widespread enough for the Democrats to lose the eleclion.
Ho the argument goes—on the porches of homes and in plaecK where all kinds of people meet in Washington. Out of every ii"\h-cring, eitlior large or sniiill, there is a chish of o])inion.

Comment and Criticism of Local Interest from Various Publications
OUTSIDERS SEE One thing few of us in IJran-
ford recognize is that the Malloa-l)lo Iron Fitlii\gs Co. has one of the mopt modern foundries in thn country and that they are equipped to produce tremendous (luanlilics of castings providing thoy can get enough uniupower.
A slate official who visits a number of foundries in Conneell-cut told us yesterday that he was surprised lo see how pleasant were working conditions in llrau-ford as compared to the olhei's.
Standing 20 or 110 feel froni the furnaces on one of July's hottest days he said ho found it cooler than on the Rtrcot,
"Certainly", said lie, "this concern has done everything pi s-bible to make for plcasimt working conditions including very line tilft shower bath.s."

The Man l^ower Commission has pluoe'd the foundry on the critical list. Since working e,ondilion8 in some foundries seem to frigh ton people from taking ,jobs no matter how critical the work is we invite tho^c who arc available for jobs to'look ut the picture of plgttbttiit working conditions at the M.1,F. • '
EOUailT A BARBER (Hartford Courant)
Those ton afthient citizens of Paterson, New Jersey, who recently bought the barber shop ot Joo RussaK- and then pooled their ro-(iourcos to acnutro his exclusive services have, wo submit, graphically demonstrated the misuse of wealth. Briefly tlie story Is this: frkod because they had to wall their turn In the barber .shop these busy citizens formed a- coniblno. Each contributed one hundred and fifty dollars toward' purchase ot the barber's capital assets^ and contributed tour dollars a week toward his weekly salary. Now the barber cschows the heads atVd beards ol ^ordinary Patensoh citizens and dtfvotcs his entire tonsbr-Iftl talents to those ten men.
A small thing, you may say, but it this same demand tbv oxoluaWo-ncss should become' widespread at this tlmo lb could bo : ihuoh mpro than a nuisance, This gobbling up of oven.one essential vyorker to servo ten men's selfish ends has probably Inconvenienced dozens ot tholr' fellow citizens who do not have the' wherewithal to purchase such privileges. We note with Interest, too, that among the businesses represented by those riiono-pollsts are a remnant merchant, "a dealer In twlno, an overalls manu-^ tacturcr and an automobile dealer. Nono of those trades' sconls to bo tied In with war production to a degree that makes their time valuable except to themselves.
We wonder, too, what the oti>tr ninety or more customers 'ol Joe Russak arc thinking now that theh fearbor has been "puVchased" by this combine. What If they arc wilr workers producing vitally needed material? Even so, their Interests are apparently as nothing compared with the convenience ot these ten men of Patterson who wanted a barber so desperately that they went out and bought one,
or national background. Tlicy are Just our boys lighting for us a'Ad tor our way of lire—that creed ot domodracy which holds that all menare created equal and are endowed by their CreWor'with certain Inalienable rights—to lite, liberty and the' pursuit of happiness.

Thoy will have become so ao-custpmetl to death, that It will be hard for Ihcni to face life. Thoy will Imyo laid their youth as a sac-I'lflco'upon the altar; ';•

The suggested Improvements are directed toward: . (1) minimizing uncertainty as; to validity of patents; (2) minimizing uncertainty as lo what constitutes a patentable Invention, to bring about greater uniformity In court decisions thereon; (3) minimizing delay In Issuance of patents iind consequent delay In-ontrance of Inventions In the pubic domain following expiration of patents; C4) reducing expense and delay Involved In: patent litigation, incliidlng In-tcrtercnco proceedings; (5) improvement ot Patent pillee procedure. . • ' '

100,000 men and women will be returning homo from'.service In the armed forces. "Wo will face a problem which can shake the world II It is not properly and promptly .solved," Mr. Westcott said. "The one great .solution Is work. Without that we face perilous times with unrest, the acceptance of weird political philosophies, and Ood knows what else.
"There are still too many who are hoping that somehow in some way a divine, all-seeing Provldoilco will furnish the work' that Is needed. There are still too many v/ho arc hoping that this same Divine Providence will provide work for the veteran.s when thoy return .Sonictliing more Is' heeded, wisii-ful thinking won't win the war and cannot win the peace. When G. 1. Joe conies home, there must 1)0 a Job walling for him. Whether there is or liot depends on the homo front."
Mr. Westcott pointed out that between the time of deciding on a construction project involving new construction or remodelling or extensive repairs and the completion ot the architects' plans and spcci-ncatlons for this work, six months may elapse. Theroforo, the tlmo to get started with the plans Is this very day. .
The Connecticut A.-iSoclatlon tor Planning Postwar Construction, Mr. Westcott said, "Is co-operating with olllclal postwar planning biJd le.s, with civic organizations in each community where they exist, to promote sound planning ot postwar projects. The most impor tant thing, however, is action. Our organization exists primarily to furnish the motive force to bring about action, and promptly. Wo hope that wo can awaken the cbn-sclou.-.noss ot our people and that business and industrial leaders and home owners will bo Impressed with the need ot planning postwar construction before it Is too late."

THE ALTAR OF SACRIFICE
nup^hoU ly J A M E S PI?ESTON
By Ruth Taylor
When I went into the greta church on Fifth Avenue, whore I go to pray tor the solution ot any problem that harasses me, it was early on D-Day. Even then i was not alono in the Oothio stillness. \yorshlppers were before me, kneeling In silent prayor.
I looked up at the great stained glass window that glowed with living blue as. the morning sun struck-It. It seemed llko a promise ot the eternal beauty of an earned peace
As I knelt, thero came to mo the realization of a tact I had not ful ly sensed, To see the promise ot beauty and peace—I had to look across the altar ot sacrifice.
So It was on D-Day. So It Is to day. The altar ot sacrlflce Is not always an altar of marble. It moy be—It Is, In many homes—the al tar of the human heart, giving sadly but freely Its most cherished possessions.
Only as we arc willing to sacrlflce ourselves for tho right can that right prevail. Our boys over seas are giving their all tor us for a belief that tyranny, oppression, persecution arc denials of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of man In which—no matter what their creed—they all believe, •rh'e'y'.'arq not divided by creed.
iTh'ey oi're riot separated by class.

THOMAS MA.NN
-JL homjs Mann's latest novel, ".loscph the Provider," the July Book-of-thc-Month Club selection, marks tlic end of a monumental undertaking by this celebrated author.
Back in 1921!, an artist in Munich, wlicre Mann was then living, asked him to write an introduction to a portfolio of illustrations depicting the story of Joseph, the son of Jacob. He looked up the story i in an old family Bible, and expctienccj' what he dcscriijcs as "on indescribable fascination" towards his subject.- Subsequently Mann made archaeological excursions to Egypt and Palestine, revisiting the pljces where the story of Joseph is laid.
As a result of his researches and meditations, lie wrote "Joseph and His Brothers," "Young Joscpli," ."Joseph in Egypt" and now the last of this great tetralogy, "Joseph
the Provider." "Joseph tlic Provider" begins when Joseph is a slave in the Pharaoh's
palace, up until he becomes the ruler ot economic life of Egypt, second only to the Pharaoh himself. Mr. Manii also retells here- the biblical story of how Joseph's brothers came down into Egypt, and how Joseph finally revealed himself to tliem in one of the most famous recognition scenes in,liter;iture. "This is probably one of tlic lasting novels of our decade," says Dr. Henry Seidel Canby, in the Book-o£-the-Month Club News,

Tliomas Mann's first great literary success was "Buddenbrooks," published when tho author was twenty-nine. It's ; said that his publishers balked at receiving ' this huge and unwieldy manuscript by an obscure young author. Cut it in half, they urged, Mann refused. Eventually they yielded and. published it in two expensive volumes, At first the book seemed doomed to failure. Critics resented its size; the public resented its price. But after the first edition of a thousand was sold out, the publislier re-issued it in a cheaper volume. It began to sell, and the young author was' snatched up in a whirlwin3 of success. Until it was burned and ianncd by Hitler, "Buddenbrooks" sold over a million - copies in
• Germany alone; it has been translated into almost every modern language.
Nazis, in 1936, ho was deprived ofGetman citizenship. In reply he wrote i scorching denunciation of fascism published all over the non-fascist world, "An Exchange o£ Letters." In 1938 Thomas Mann came to the United States, and three years ago he built a permanent home in Santa Monica, California, where ho still carries on- a
strict routine of work, spending his mornings in creative writing, and his afternoons in correspondence. He will soon become an American''

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICES "Truth" will be the subject ot
the Lesson-Sermon for Sunday, July 23rd. • •' ' '
The Golden Text Is from Psalms 80:15. "Tliou, O LOrd, art ' a God full ot compassion, and gracious, long-sulTerlng, and plenteous'In mercy and truth."
Selections from the Bible Include the following: "Open ye tho gates, that the' righteous nation' which keepeth the truth may -enter' In. Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind Is stayed on thee: because he trusteth In thee." (Isaiah 26: 2, 3).
Correlative passages frbm the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to tho Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following (pp. 11, 467): "prayor cannot change- the unalterable Truth, nor can prayor alone give us an understanding of Truth; but prayer, coupled with a fervent habitual desire to know and do the will ot God, will bring us into all Truth . . . . It should be thoroughly understood that all men have one mind. One God and Father ,one Lite, Truth, and Love. Mankind will become perfect' In proportion as this fact becomes appar-en,l('war will cease and the true brotherhood ot man will be established."' . - -.'

T H E ART OF
FINGERPRINTING
FINGEnPRINTINQ la romantic In' somo sBpocts, but
' llko all Bcloncea a product of vision and resoarcR., Llko other sciences It has proved of utmost Importance In the prosecution of tho war.
Basically ; flqgerprlntlng Is dependent on'.fdpf; romnrkablo facts:
1, 'The fipg^rprlnts of tho vast majority of jiedple are'not radically' different, one .Jfrom the other, but
, fall Into; gfowps and subgroups ivhich en'abl.a^&em to be classlfled »rid IndexedV.n.;'
2. Wbllolirjnts within groups and subgrodps|liavo similarities In common —;"; kiiown as "arches," "whorls,"' and;^ ''loops"— no prints from any two'.indlvlduals have ovor been found ^hlch are exactly alike.
3. Fingerprints of the same Individual remain recognizably those of the same .person from ehlldhood to the, grave. ' '
4, The characteristic ridges or markings of the Inside of the fingertips and thumbtlps (from which prints are made) cannot bo successfully altered or erased.
Fingerprinting as wo know It owes Its origin' to Prof., J. E. Pur-klnje of the University of Breslau who in 1$23 'first announced tbo basic principles of the science. It remained for tho great; English •dentist, ^tr-Francis Gallon, lio\v-ever,, to lay. the foundatlpns of modern methods of olasslHoatlon— metbodi • wlilch were later per-feotjd by ttha-tomlon .police com-
^mlHsloncr, Sir Richard Henry, nnd by our own FDf.
Mlfs^ Tho story of how llngerprlntlng ^ ^ ^ u a s Introduced Into America Is
Intoreatlng. In 1904 a number of • • ^ S c o t l a n d 'V'ard men came to this
science '>°""t''5' ' " protect' tho British ' 'crown jewels that had boon loaned
for exhibition at the St. Ixiuls World Fair. Ill their leisure moments the Britishers, hobnobbing with their American, counterparts, sang the praises of their new system of lln^orprlntlng, then recently Introduced by Sir Richard. What
hvi)s more practical, they taught It to our own men. From this beginning, llngerprlntlng took hold and spread^but not withbut opposition.
The fingerprint expert has to be a man of many qualifications. One quallflcatlon, however, la basic: ho has to possess keen vlslon-rtbe kind of vision that enables him to detect small but significant details.
When you come to think of It, that klnd'of'vlslon Is a prerequisite for nearly all types of expertness. Normally most of us don't possess such vision, since nature bestows perfect eyes on only a fow of her eons and daughters.
Thanks to optical science, tho rest of us can generally take our Imperfect eyes to an eyesight specialist and come out with vision that rivals that of tho most fortunate Individuals.
Incldentiflly, It Is a little known fact, yet vmiched for by science, that lust as fingerprints are individual, the markings of the retina, which are,.<)lirerent for every person, araj'.|g^>i)dlvldual that they t could b'^u<«'d''in:uUce of fiqeer-j nrlntr. ' '^••

I t concerns the nuiaber of " B " and " C " gasoline applicat ions handled In the last few months—1,500 more t h a n have ever been processed during a like period slnqe rationing began.
W h a t does th i s m e a n to you? Nothing, perhajps—but what it
moans lo me Is what makes the fife-ure IntcrcsllnE. The number o£ a p plications for extra gasoline s t a r -tod to Increase sharply r ight ofter tha t raid we made In New Haven In the course of which wo arrested 50 alleged black marketeers. Jus t how elToctlvoly t ha t raid nipped the New Haven gasoline black market In the bud Is evidenced. In my opinion, by the sudclen Jump In the number of people who want supplemental rations.
These now applicants, or most of them, had previously turned to Illegal channels for the i r gasoline supply. Now with most of. those outlets shu t off, they find t h a t they, like the great majority of honest citizens, must turn, to Local Boards for gasoline to which they are entitled under regulation's. Needless to say, our Board people a ren ' t hand ing out extra rations unless a definite occupatloiial need Is shown. Most of the applicants can ' t show this need.
In other words, those, who have dipped into the stockpile to get more than their fair sha re have been rapped on the knuckles.
Star t ing on August 1, Connecticut 's eight medical panels will begin their work of speeding up the Issuance of special food rat ions for folks with Illnesses which require extras. Connecticut is t h e , flrSt s ta te to liave: organized such panels and their establ ishment has been made possible through the cooperation of the S ta te Medical Society.
Heretofore, your Local War Price and Rat ioning Board h a s been authorized to issue special rat ions In only certain cases of Illness whose nutr i t ional needs are well known. I n cases of aliments no t listed with the Local Boards, applications for ex t ra rat ions h a d to be forw^arded for approval to a regional medlcn Iboard of review In Boston. This Boston board Is handling applications from all over New England. Hence, delay in taking action on some applications Is un derstandable.
Now, however, a t our request, the Regional Office h a s approved our sett ing up a medical boord" of our own In each county of th< Sta te , These boards consist of three doctors each who will review all unusual food applications as soon as they receive them from- the Rationing Boards. This m e a n s speedier service for all people in Connecticut who really need more than the average share of rat ioned foods in order to combat a sickness.

"Hot July brings thunder .show-or.s, apricots and gillyflowers."
Tile true gardener defies Its heal ' to do llic chores, reap Its bounties, enjoy its color. The morning s tar Is Sa turn ; evening stars, Mars, Venu.s, Mercury and Jupi ter .
Wisteria can be pruned now, but be sparing with the clippers, I fyou want (lowers. True, since rat ions and roots pruning encourage blooms in woody plai'its difficult to Ilowcr.
Rambler roses can bo pruned as soon as the (lowers fade. Trim out old canes a t ground level, r e t a in ing live or six minia ture shoots. You can wait t in Spring to prune cihnbcrs.
a s plants for two or three years in a limited way, but this year seeds will be available after Ju ly . Like most perennials, seedlings take r.vo years to bloom. Many re ta i l plant-men may not list Glory of Holland, bu t they will soon stock. If there Is a demand from home gardeners.
I t Is much belter for t h e lilacs to train off the old flower heads as soon as possible, and not wai t until Spring. I have never observed blrd.s gett ing anyth ing from t h e m In the winter.
As the French peasant 's wealth Is measured by the amount of m a nure In his stable yard, so t h e American garden may be measurcU by the .size of Its compost heap.
Not to be previous but bulbs, perennial and shrub orders for Pali planting should be made soon. Au-. tumn Crocus goes In the ground anytime this month, others In August and September.
To multlply-bioodlng hear t , an -chucas oriental poppy, replant pieces of root.
Deiphlnlus, Achllleas and other perennials will give a second show of blooms In Autumn, It c>;*i back,, fertilized a n d watereu after flowering. Feed, remove dead flowers from other p lan t s .
Common Gardening mistake— Failure to take apar t and thor oughly clean sprayer after use. Using plenty oC fresh water and drying ail nozzle ••ja,''t,'.; bsfore reassembling. M a n y , spray mater ia ls leave residue ^ifhich, If allowed to remain, will clog s.mall openings, or will in jure the metal par t s of the Implement.
Armeria Rudy Is now fairly well known, but a n even larger flowered variety of thrif t Is Glory of Holland, which bears Its large t resses of dark p ink flowers on s tems u p to 24 Ind ies long. A long season bloomer, it s t a r t s in June and car ries on tin Fa l l . .
This novelty has been avoUable
for table use wore brought unde r celling prices for the' first t ime a t shipper, wholesaler and retailer levels. I t ' s a bit early to predict wha t the dol lars-and-cents differences will be between this year 's crop and 1943's. But a sate esti ma te Is tha!t the peaches you buy this summer will cost you on tho average ot 25 per cent less t h a n they cost last summer.
Now Is the time to s t a r t biennials for next year 's bloom. The garden biennials can be divided Into tw'o groups. One group Includes t h e tree biennials, such as c a n t e r b u r y Bells (both the plain and cup and saucer types) . Sweet William and Honesty, also hollyhocks, foxglove and Rose Campion. All the above arc best sown In Ju ly to obta in pluSJs large enough to flower t h e following year. The second group Includes pan.sle.s, English daisies, for-get-me-nots , Siberian Wallflower and English Wallflower. About August is the best t ime to sow these . I t sown earlier, there Is dange r that large soft p lants , subject to winter killing may result.

KEEP ANIMALS COOL With the warm summer months
a t hand the Connecticut Humane Society today urged all pe t owners to make every effort to keep their animals as cool and comfortable as possible.
I t was suggested tha t a p a n of fresh water always kept in the same place will help to keep the pet dog and ca tcool. The Society warned, however, t ha t pets should .not be overfed during t h e hot weather or needlessly exposed to the sun's rays. A dog. It confined, should have a leash secured trolley fashion to a long wire with access to a shady a n d airy spot. Free ventilation in quarters occupied by such animals as require confinem e n t sliould be provided.
Above all, pets should n o t be locked In packed car with the windows closed. The unbearable heat resulting has many t imes caused prostrat ion, of pets so left by thoughtless and Inconsiderate owners.
Tile Society also suggested tha t drivers of work horses .carry a pall and give a little water to the horse every hour. I t Is also wise to water before feeding and then aga in two hours later.

Long Distance Running Test To Be Given
I t was an opinion in the marke ts 1 today tha t if a. good rain doesn't arrive in a tew days there will be a serious shortage of seasonable fruits and vegetables. Managers said markets so far had not been seriously elloctecj bu t there was great danger unless farmers get relief Very soon.
Questioned about dairy prod-cuts, stores were of the opinion t h a t Branford is receiving its share and said t h a t cheese Is being received in satisfactory quan -
, titles. •When asked what t rue shortages
existed it was said t h a t paper , napkins , towels, bags and tissues were the only articles in constant demand which are especially difficult to get.
I t is true one manager said thsft one week a dealer will receive plen ty of one article and for the next montli his orders to wholesalers will be unfilled "Branford is getting Its share of everything—even beef."
I t was admitted t h a t there jus t isn't any beef to be h a d in Bran ford, bu t no town has a supply, so we a ren ' t . any worse off t h a n neighboring communities. Bananas , ice cream and but ter are not plentiful by any means, but most p a t rons a re equally served.

In general it is a case of the "early bird."
Except in few instance there Is little grumbling about points, and now buyers usually figure polRts before ordering supplies. Clerks too have been accustomed to figuring points and can give Intelligent explanations as to procedure.
There is plenty of grumbling among shop-keepers a f i i n s t the law which prohibits a 'nusky five foot five fifteen year old lad ac cepting part- t ime work in grocery stores.
With clerks changing jobs by the minute, merchants say they need help very urgently for light jobs such as dusting shelves stocking shelves and swe'eplng. There is wide belief tha t , a t least as a war- t ime measure they should be allowed to employ physically abls boys who otherwise are allowed to "run wild."
"Tney like to work," one clerk said, and an owner said ho would even be willing to employ such lads under supervision of a local committee whose duty It would be to see t ha t the boy or girl was properly treated.
One-to-a-customer sales plan does not work out well, because immediately every friend in tht. store learns via the grapevine t h a t the article is on quota and develops a need for t h a t particular commodity, real or Imaginary.
