Tousey Urged | To Go Forward WithCoUections

Although the war Is considered about over there is slIU a orilloai shortage of paper according to in­formation received by Salvage Chairman Harold Tousey. Unless now instructions are received pa­per and tin will bo collected as

usual, Brantord's monthly quota ot

waste paper is 40,300 pounds. In June 14,000 pounds were turned In.

Collection of rags wais not so good the quota being B.OSO tor si): months, with collections amounting to 085 pounds or 12 percent of the quota. Our last quota'on fat was 1001 with 1,100 pounds or 12 per­cent- collected.

The next paper collection will bo early September. Tiri cans will be picked uiJ November 3rd. . Declaring there was immediate

and grave danger of collapse of na­tionwide salvage program before its magnlflcent job-was fully complet­ed, J. A. Krug, WPB chairman em­phasized today thatN^he 21,000 vol­unteer salvage committees through out the land should "stay on the Job leit the' reconversion program bo impaired."

"Paper salvage must continue. Fats and oils likewise must be conserved as much as belore. Same applies to tin cans. All ot these materials are short and wiU continue to be short for some time. The salvaging ot all of them is ot importance to orderly reconversion. Otherwise Mr. Krug emphasized, "the country may experience o serious problem as tho aftermath of war."

"Obviously", Mr. Krug declared, 'the,war is not over tor a soldier until he comes homo and has a job. We must make the job by supplying

Postmaster Gives Rules On Mailing

Christmas Gifts In making public the complete

regulations governing tiie mallhig ot overseas Christmas parcels for our armed forces. Postmaster Jo­seph Drlscoll stated that the pro­blems Involved in moving this mall are more complex than ever be­fore. He outlined the fact that transportation facilities this year are really critical. More jind more mail is going to the Pacific and from the standpoint ot parcels de­posited on the Atlantic Seaboard it.means alonghaul across the na­tion for trans-shipment to the far-flung islands ot the Paciflo, 'Whiie these parcels must be deposited be­tween September 15 and October 15. Postmaster, Drlscoll urged the public to start making their pur­chases immediately and make plans to secure suitable strongly-construc tod containers.

Parcels destined for China, Bur­ma, India, the Middle East and Pa­cific islands should be mailed be­fore October 1, No requests from addressees are required for Christ­mas parcels mailed to Army per­sonnel during the period ot Sep­tember l5 to October 15 only.

At the annual meeting of Cor-coran-Sundqulst Post, American Legion held at the Armory Tuesday night, Charles O. Bedient was elec-^ tod Commander tor the 1945-1940 term.

The tollowihg slate ot offlcers were elected: 1st Vice Commander, Stephen Bombollskl; 2nd Vice Com­mander, Joseph A. Donadio; Adju­tant, Clarence I. Bradley, re-elec­ted; Finance OHloer, Robert Rich­ardson, re-elected; Chaplain, Er-; nest Albertine, reelected; Historian, Thomas Corcoran, reelected; Ser­vice Ofllcer, Fred Adams; Sergeant-at-arms, Frank Dudley . .

Members ot the Executive Com­mittee ,Eugene B. Rodney, Frank Reynolds, Carl Viard, Maurice Smith, William Kremser, George Hansen,'in addition to all officers.

Retiring Commander Eugene B. Rodney, commended the Post upon their^excellent choice ot offlcers and particularly noted the ' increaslhg part World War II veterans were taking in the post • activities, and the Post's recognition of It by tho election of Joseph A. Donadio to a Vice Commanders Post, and Frank Dudley to Sergeant-at-Arms. John Ahem was reelected as a Trustee tor the Welcome Home Fund, other trustees being Clarence I. Bradley,] and Frank Reynolds. .

Installation ceremonies of the newly elected oHlcors will be held at the Armory, September 11. • A very elaborate program is being arranged, tire full details of which will be announced later.

Amid all the funny business which followed the announcement of the cessation of hostilities it was Interosling last week when excite­ment ran high, and also this week when confetti and streamers had vanlsliod from the curbs to note the Increase In church attendance-

Last week, as news came and church bolls onnounced the glad tidings people left tho streets and entered the nearest church. Ap­parently a t ' a time like that, one talVh did not dlfler from another.

Somo paid brief calls, others lingered for longer periods. ' None went homo for conventional hat, tie and gloves. Men appeored with­in the dobrs clad in slacks and un­dershirts, sweaters or sport shirts. Women wore seen wearing slacks, shorts, sports attire, many minus any manner of head covering. By­standers might easily conclude that horn blowing and parading was' a necessary means ot getting the glory of it all into .action but between it all was the urge to per­sonally pay respects the finest way they knew. '

Then Sunday, came the day set aside by President Truman as a Day of Prayer when . pastors, to quote the Rev. Frederic R. Murray, urged "tho need ot a dependence upon God and ot totlorance toward our foUowmen in", the future >that lies ahead." '

Discharged servicemen are al­ready talking of returning to their studies. Especially, thoro appears to bo an interest in enrolling at the University ot Connecticut. Some tell us that they cannot be admit­ted in September but are willing to wait until the January session.

With the en(;llnB of World War II education is faced with the tremen­dous job of providing educational facilities tor over 25,000 veterans in the State of Connecticut.

There is a great demand tor high school education and diplomas, ap­prenticeship training, 'on-the-job" training, technical education and college training. The veterans will be coming in great numbers this tall and the job must be done Im mediately.

In 155 towns Veterans Advisory Committees and Centers are in op oration ready tor the veterans when they return. These community cen ters are receiving cooperation from the superintendents and prin­cipals lor 40-percent of the quest-tions concern educational oppor­tunities and problems. Mrs. Con­stance Myers at the town hall handles local work ot this nature.

Over Ave million veterans will not have a had a high school di­ploma. There is an impressive number coming to the - State De­partment and to the Centers ask­ing how they may obtain a High School Diploma.

AN ANONYMOUS THREAT,

Wc were sitting quietly " ' 9"r living room Saturday night nliout 10;]5 o'clock catching up on our reading wlicn the lelcplunic sud­denly rang. AVe answered, nnd a voice.—we don't know wliolhcr it was a dnnik or sober one—gave us tliis torso nicssnge: "Mtr. Stevens, if you don't keep your nose out of i'jnst Haven politics, you'll rofirret

AVcll now that was something, wasn't it? In llie lirst place we have no inteniinii of putting rfiir noKc in

East-Haven politics, or any other pojibics for that luntter. AVc ni-c not on any primary or cuunns list, nor do we intend to bo. Mow wc cast our vote is nobody's business but our own. . ' ,

SEWEE SYSTEIM, A NO. 1 PROJECT

El.sowhcrc wo report negotialinns underway for funds from the Federal government to provide for a survey and lay-out'of a .system of sewers and sewage disposal'plant for East Haven. A small appro­priation for this purpose was made by tlie Finance 13oard last year, but under the new Federal grants, money to plan for post-war pro-.•jeots wdi bo ad\anoed to communities and can be repaid later when the projects are cnrricfd out.,

East Haven has felt the need of adequate sewage disposal for some time, especudly wjtli.tlie largo development of new hotn,es,here]

'*dti'rii%nhe-pnsi-few'yearB."'We-unders'fand the tbwn""offlcinlinl6'^n6f "'"'intend''immediate carrying out of a sewage disposal pro,iect, but

liopp io obtain funds'so that a survey and lay-out can he readied now in order to saye time and expense later.

There are many details to be worked but in coniieotion with sower construction. For instance the townsiioopio will have to decide wliotlier to build one large.town-wide unit or three units, one for each seetion into whicli the town is naturally divided, the Center, li'o.^on, and the Shore. A survey now will furnish them with tho ne­cessary data upon which to base the final decisions,

' There is also the possibility of tieing in with the proposed iiJast Shore system in New llnven, and this too, should be carefully consid­ered. AVo believe the town officials arc malting' a wise move in seek­ing Federal funds noM' so that an early start can be made on the planning of a modern sewage disposal system for East Haven.

Town Seeking Federal Sewage Survey Funds

Application Is being made by tlic town ot East Haven for Federal funds which are being made avail­able for the planning now of post­war projects. The funds. If granted, will be used for an engineering sur­vey and plan-lnyout for a sewage disposal system and plant.

'A modern system of .sewers and an adequate disposal plant has long been among East Haven's No. 1 needs, and while it is not likely that a start can be made in tlie immediate future, town odicials be­lieve that a survey and layout should be ready in the event that the townspeople decide to make such a capital investment.

The Federal funds arc in the form of a loan which may be re­paid later when the project is car­ried out. An appropriation of $1,500 was made in the current town bud-

got lor. a sewerage survey but this survey has been delayed pending the New Haven East Shore survey upon wliich the local project may po."islbly tie-in.

OITlclBls believe that East Havon win probably need throe separate system!!, one for the center, nnd qlhoVs at Foxon nnd a\/ Momauguin, because these three blull-iip areas are so far apart. It is also the-oplnlon that'sewer system will cost In the neighborhood ot $25,000 for each mllo constructed.

The project will probably require Icgl.slallve action and a local rofcr-endimi, but in tho mcantlmo. It Is hoped to have n survey and lay-out ready so that there may be-no ad­ditional delay whCn the time to provide sowers for the town arrives. The. eventual cost will have to be met by a bond issue. ,

GUIDE SIGNS ARE NEEDED

Three ladies drove their automobile into a Main .street filling sta­tion one day last week aiul asked information as to how.to get to East Haven. The attendant told iheni that tliey were in East Haven. Then tho lady who was driving the car stated/lior opinion that it was a p i t y that-there were no guide signs on tho route out from New Ha­ven that would point tlie way. ', '

AVe agroe.witli nur visitor from New York. In our opinion there should be a sign at Gi'annis Corners, prefer­

ably at the intersection of J.i'orhes and Townsend avenue to show the way over the Cut-Olf to iSast Haven, and anolhci- at Forbes place whicli would direct strangers to "Eas t Haven Center". AVe have luiowu of motorists, seeking an East Haven destination, who 'have completely b.v-pa.sspd tho town. AVe believe there should also bo a directing sign at tho corner of ]\Iain street and Townsend avenue.

At the present time tlie Cut-Off at Grannis Corner is provided with signs directing to New London and ]?oston, but strangers seek­ing BaHt Haven sometimes Ini-n off at the trillTic light toward Morris Cove. We believe that signs in suitable locations there would be very helpful in furnisliing necessary information to visitors coming to

A step in the right direction was taken this week with th^ ap­pointment of an executive conitnittce of three to guide in the mak­ing of plans for extending help and information to retui'iiing mem­bers of the Armed Forces, Major Gate who is directing tho work in llie state, told a mooting of representatives from various organiza­tions what other towns of Connecticut are endeavoring to do in this direction, and First Selectman James .1. Sullivan, who presided at the session, acted quickly in naming tlie steering committee to con­sider the plans presented and make further suggestions. Tho com­mittee, consisting of Antliony Carii.so, James Malone- and AVilliam Juspers, is the same committee rai.sed recently by the Harry R. 13arl-lett post to take tlic preliminary stcp.s. The members are veterans of AVorld AVar I, and not only understand veterans' problems in general but are very well acquainted with the local problems as well. AVe know they will do a good, job.

Thirteen organizations sent representatives to the meeting and it was a good cross-section of the town. Some 20 or so invitations had been sent out but with many groups'^ having suspended their meet­ings for the summer these will send representatives later. •

In the days of conversion to peace-time activities the ])rohlem of adjusting flie returning veteran will be a serious one. East Haven is fortunate in being situated closij to the Center which will open in New Haven Sept. 15 under the direction of experts, and in being being able to enjoy all the advantages of that service at a very moderate share of the total cost. The suggestion of having an adviser on hand in our own Town Hall for preliminary interviewing seems to he a good one and worthy of further consideration.

Bartlett Boys Have Fine Time At Big_Outing To the. accompaniment of gay

stanzas from Madamosclle fron\ Armentiers arid other tunes' from World War 1, 100 or more veterans members ot Harry R. Bartlett post, American Legion, rolled homo from Northford Sunday night after a day ot festivities at tl^elr annual outing at Restland Farms. It was a great time ai)d even tho shower held off until the crowd was under shelter in the big pavilion • where the tasty dinner was served by the Restland stalT.

Tho big event of the day was, of course, the chicken dinner at noon, when enormous platters of good things from the garden made a rapid dis­appearing act from the handsome­ly spread tables. . •

There wore atWetic events, but not too many, and while soft ball and horseshoes attracted some of the fellows most of the crowd took to the benches under the shade trees to remlnesce of the Meausp Argonne, Chateau Thierry, San Mlhele and other high points ot 1918. •

Major Donald A. Peck who was the first commander of the local post, came down from the Veter­ans Hospital in Rocky Hill where he is in charge, and renewed old acquaintances. There wore also on hand somg of the "youngster.s" of World War II who have lately joined tho post. All in ill it wa!s a swell day and a swell time. Joseph O'Connor headed the committee which was In charge.

Fom- East Haveners In "Red Devils" Famous Fifth Division Had Bril­

liant Record Overseas—Other News Of Armed Forces

Four Ea.st Haven men, Cpl. Sid­ney F. Belanger, 30 Lindbergh street; Pfc. Willldm P. Ledogar, 394 Thompson avenue; Pvt. Rob­ert E .Morse, 127 Klmbcrly avenue; and Pfc. Rome A. Perma, 60 Pros­pect place, saw service with the Fifth (Red Devils) Division which iiad a foremost place In tho liber­ation ot Europe.

Often outpacing the Allied sup­ply systeni In knifing 700 miles across France, the 5th Infantry (Red Diamond) Division spear­headed the brilliant assault on the fortress city of Metz to climax a series of remarkable performances in the Battle ot Europe.

Proud wearer's ot the red diamond shoulder patch. Doughboys, of the Fifth came to be known by the Germans as the "Red Devils" as they leaped victory upon victory under the leadership of Major General Stafford L. Irwin.

Capture ot Importiint French Cities and forced crasslngs ot num­erous rivers preceded the Fifth's bloody battle to hold a beach head on the Moselle River, from which sprang tho Third Army's attack on]some thlrty-flve.Distinguished Ser-

Motz. The Fifth landed on the continent July 10, and Metz fell November 19.

Lack of supplies—the Fifth wa.s far ahead of lines running from Normandy beaches—delayed the division for five days in September and gave the disorganized Germans an opportunity to set up a formid­able defense along the Mozelle.

In the 700 mile drive across Prance, the Red Devils took 3,700 prisoners. During- the final opera­tions at Metz, they captured 4,1^3 more Germans in addition to 1,048 killed ahd 4,000 wounded. Huge stores of enemy material and sup­plies-also fell to the Fifth.

One ot the hardest-flghting and by tho same token one oJ the most depleted divisions, the Red Dia-monders in ton months of combat from July, 1944 to Miiy, 1945 had a battle casualty turnover of rough­ly 100 per cent. The rifle compan­ies changed personnel between 2O0 and 300 per cent In that period.

A gauge of the war's tide was evident Jn the fact that the men who came home, replacing men who had replaced other men, were tough and already battle hardened, .The division's men have at least one Congressional Medal of Honor and

vice Crosses. ,' The records show that In the ton

months of fighting across, western Europe the division lost'504 ofilcors and 11,822 enlisted men Wiled or wounded In action. Non-battle cas­ualties, including battle fatigue trench foot, frostbite and other exigencies ot war for which the Purple Heart Medal Is not awarded, numbered 454 officers and 12,589 enlisted men. , v

Major White Tells Of Army Athletics

Major GcorBO White, a member of the New Havon Rotary chib and an otnclal of the Fhst Federal Bulldhig and Loan association was the .sneaker at last week's meetInK of the Rolary club following the luncheon in St. Vincent do Paul's auditorium. lie described his recent trip to the Mediterranean Theatre of Operations.

With a group of outstanding coaches, athletes and prominent flgurcs In American sports, he vis­ited various European cities where American soldiers have been sta­tioned and there helped set up and conduct clas.5cs In such sports : as football, basketball and baseball.

The group of which Major White was one received preliminary train­ing and .Instruction at Camp Pat­rick Henry, Newport News, Virgin­ia. There the coaches learned what they would be reciulred to do, visited, hospitals and entertained soldiers with nims of football and baseball games.

The speaker gave high pralise to the soldiers' spirit and the untiring work of -the doctors and nurses. He gave special praLsd to the com­manding offlccr. Col. Fountain.

Gen. John Fltzuatrlok, a Yale All-Amerlcan football payor, was In­strumental In securing pas.sage.for the group and comfortable quar­ters were provided for the trip to Italy.

Major Wlilte said the Ilrst city visited was Naples which had been damaged'during the Italian cam­paign. The group was glad to .sec the wounded soldlurs wore receiv­ing suiriolent good food which made rationing back here seem a worth­while sacrifice. ,

In Castera, Florence and- Rome, classes for as many as 60 to 00 soldiers were formed In many sports. Those participating were not necessarily skilled in a certain sport beforehand, but anyone could take advantage of the skilled In­struction offered. The basketball tournament In Florence proved so popular thftt soldiers would begin arriving at' 3 P.M. to make sure of a seat for the evening. This train­

ing and participation In American gaines proved a splendid restorative for battlc-wcary soldiers. Tlio group's work was simplified by the stadia In every town, few of which had been destroyed by shcll-flre. Mussolini was given the credit for planning and erection of so many fully equipped andi well-construc­ted, athletic fields throughout Italy/

Major White's highlight of the trip was Ills audience with the Pope In Rome. The Holy Father, ho said, expressed a keen Interest In sports and felt that much could 'be dorie to strengthen the Peace through the crchangc of athletic teams by the dlffcront countries.

President Dan Parllla presided at the meeting which brought out a very largo attendance. The club' member,? extended best wishes to Rudy Schmidt and Martin Olson, the former having birthday August 20 and the latter on Augu.st 28.

Geii, ICnox Says

I haven't sulci nnytlihig about that rtibbcr smoke that wafts lis way over our fair town from the old quarry hole across Farm River from Riverside because I thought the Brnntord town ohlclals were solng to abate the nuisance. But It looks like by now the trouble is beyond them and In sjilte of orders and commnnds and such like tho rubber still burns. Its been bui'nlng so long now that Its getting bretty discouraging for ncople who live In the neighborhood and sometimes the odor can be smclled all over the central part of the town. I ain't got no suggestion to make but It would seem like if-they can't put the Arc out with water there ought to bo some kind of chemicals Ihoy

'could use. It wouldn't surprise me none If the residents who are sick and tired of smelling that burnlilg rubber day n'nd night were to take the matter to the courts. As It Is they are a lot moi'C burned'up than the rubber seems to be and I don't know that I blame them'much. Its been pretty tough oh theni to have that burned rubber smell going through their houses all hours. And the odor clings to the clothes too so that you can almost tell a Rlv'er.sld'er now by his smell. One would think naturally that a smudge like that would drive off thie mostiultoes but It don't even do that. The mostiultoes are just as big and ferocious as ever even when the Farm River smoke niil-sancc is at its height. About tho only redeeming thing about it ds that It kills off the pig-pen smell that used to come In from east of Farm River but from what they toll me most folks would rather have

Mr. Sullivan Points To His 8 Year's Record

Dresses

Betty Coyle (OF EAST HAVEN)

80 College Street Opposite Hotel Taft ,

I have been First Selectman for the past 8 years. Wlien I took office the bonded indebtedness was $747,-000, today, it is $472,000, a decrease of over a quarter of a.million of dollars. Eight ycrtrs ago tho budget wa.s $578,000 per year, today It is $447,000, an annual increase of Town expenses of appi-qximatcly $70,000. For the past several years there have been no tar increases. During the past eight years the grand list has increased a million and a duarter bringing nddltlonol revenue of approximately $25,000. The above figures show that tho budget increase resulrcd $70,000 per year more revenue and the grand list Increase, only accounted for $25,000, thus leaving a difference of over $40,000, which has been re­alized by cfilcicnt admlnlstrallan with no Increase In taxes.

My administration has reduced the bonded indebtedness; we have maintained the same tax struc­ture in face of increasing cxpensc.s; we have collected refuse from jiro-perty owners at no extra cost; wc have given East Haven Tax Payers a sound buslness-Uke administra­tion, and our bills are paid and we have money In the bank. What more can any taxpayer request?

I like Mr. Hall personally. I do not agree with his. ideas of how to manage our Town or his sponsors who support hjm and oppose me. I answer to no man, group of men oi clique. I answer and account to the people of East Haven for my ac tlous. Tho differences between Mr. Hall and me are hot conduclvd to the best Interests of the Town. Mr. Hall ran against me in a primary four years ago and was defeated. For the succeeding tv/o years, Ly-ri^an Goodrich, of Foxon, was the Second Selectman and 1 enjoyed his whole-hearted cooperation and assistance. Mr. Goodrich was re moved two years ago without cause and supi)lanlcd by Mr. Hall.

I honestly feel that I have given the people of^East Hayen an clll-clcht administration and the most

that I request Is to liavc n.'i my running mates clllolcnt, capable and cooperative n.ssoclatcs. puplng tho past eight years I may not have plea.'ied tho poUllclluis but I have satisfied the voters and tax­payers. "

The administration group has a ticket In the ncld lieaded by my­self and Mr. Goodrich. I respectful­ly appeal to all voter? on the Re-" publican Primary list to appear at the polks on Monday, Soptembor 10, 1045 and cast his or her vote

We will talk of multi­plying plants by seeds, by cuttings, by divisions, we even multiply by addition, but this fat and flabby plant multiplies by sheer multipli­cation. This Is the one way no self-respecting plant, as far as I know, ever multiplies. How much we could learn from nature If we would I i

That brings to mind thev"other flowered" flowers we take every year to our bosoms, straight from the seedsmens' catalogues-—the car­nation-flowered marigolds, the Dahlia-flowered zinnias, the peony flowered dahlias, and the rest, Some day some seedsman Is going to Introduce a marigold-flowered marigold. Hel'll make a fortune.

Start saving all dead leaves (not diseased ones) and grass'clippings tor the compost heap.

Give roses last feeding ot liquid cow manure. Any later feeding en­courages growth which ^wiU be killed by frost.

Remove suckers oil hybrid orna­mental shrubs (Lilac and Floworlng Almond) so that the strength from-the main plant win not be sapped.

Oriental popples should be planted now for best results. Ex­treme care^must be used in trans­planting or dividing the roots which should be replanted, upright, with crowns within three Inches of

surface. And—do not forget to destroy the

rag weed—there seems to be more than ever on the road-side and In yards. In one yarc) I saw a luxuri­ant growth as tall'as mysclt^ There are not so many ^np beetles this year, but much inpre rag-weed. Be sure and pull It !iip and burn.

Marigolds, without odor are In­creasing In popula'rity among gar­deners. Gold Improved Is the name ot a carnatlon-liko four Inch blos­som of bright oraMge.

Future Service Seen Improved

NInety-flvo per cent of the rural families and businesses in Con­necticut which have no telephones will bo able to obtain service In the future without paying for the con­struction of wire lines, as the're­sult of a new torill filed by The Southern New England Telephone Company with the State Public Utilities Corfimlsslon.

Charges for necessary construc­tion to the remainder will be great­ly reduced since the new tariff provisions not only extend the free allowance.

Plans for extending rural lines In Connecticut are progressing and full benefits of the new regula­tions will be experienced Just as rapidly as manpower and materials

I become avalloble for construction iwork, •.

The free highway construction allowance for applicants living be­yond exlsltlng telephone lines Is increased from three-rtenths.lo onc-lialf a mile. Moreover, some wllf be able to take advantage of the 'grouping plan" whereby the new

half-mile free allowoncie per sub­scriber may be averaged among a group In such a way as to obtain the owcst cost for each one.- The charge for construction beyond the free allowance is now a uniform rate' of $13 for each one-twentieth of a mile, whereas the former rate varied from $10 to $30 for the same distance. , '
