Behind niccllanical changes in the fire alarm systems made this week is a story, not of eloclrical perfection and fire fighting efl i-oie'ney'but the history of a fam­ily, grown gray through year.'? of voluntary devotion to a cause for which there was no flnnneinl re­muneration.

Some 30 years past the Ter-huncR and Nesbits.'living togeth-

'er, figuratively tossed away the key to their dwelling, for during those years they were never to leave alarm or telephone unat-•t'ond«d.

SPEED AS USUAL Business as usual—that's what some people are saying about

Ainericnii industrial prnduetion in 10-H. According to them, industry ilidii't cliaiige ((iiickly from making consumer grtods to making w*capoii's. '

Such criticism indicates a lack of understandiiig'of the facts, however. Business ,was anything but usual during that year. Ameri-6a'had no armament industry. Before it could begin makiiigweapbri.s iii qliantity, it had to build new factories, new tools, develop new Skills, it had to start, from scratch, But it did start and start quickly to meet defense re'qiiiremciits. The-245 per cent increase in military plane production in 1041 over li)40 eaii never 1)0 called business as Usual. The 23 per cent increase in steel pi-oductioii, 72 per cent in ihotiir truck o«t;ptit—tliese are liiiything but "usiial," in Aiiierloa or aiiywhdi'o else in tlie world.

The record of the past year liliows that progress'on'war orders has b(j0n fast. Now plants have gone up in record time. Many speci-fio orders have been fiiiished ahead of schedule. The keynote of the wholo'pro.duction job lias been siiecd—s|)eed as usual. That's the oiity "aft usual" thei'c has been in the entire program. '

The opinion Is unanimous here that, throughout the war, the unionization cause will make gains

From present Indications, labor Is asking a return for Its all- out co­operation In war production. It seeks, as consideration to bind the bargain, a voice In management.,

Industrialists and Industry men In the OPM view this development with alarm.T hey feel that this country | today facing a labor problem of far greater significance than It did' when It had defense strike after defense strike to con- tend with. The fight over giving labor a share In management Is waged bitterly behind the scenes here.

Labor's demand stems back to last tall, when Philip Murray, president of the CIO, presented his "Indastry council plan." ( The Murray plan contemplates the establishment of councils for every industry. These councils would be composed of an equal number of labor and management representatives, with a chakman to represent the public appointed by the President. The Industry would then be run from top to bottom by Us council. •

The Murray jilan was widely criticized at the time of, Its pro­posal. I t WEis pointed out by economists, both friendly unfriend­ly to labor, that the management of an Industrial enterprise requires a specialized type of skill. The fact that a man makes a good labor leader does not, of Itself, quality him to share in the direction of Industry. There is, it was pointed out, no correlation between the two.

•The public was left In on this controversy by press report of the fight over the conversion of the automobile Industry to armament prodtictlon.

Durhig the negotiations about the "automobile Industry, .labor leaders consistently called for th'e adoption of the Reiither plan, which Is'an adaption of the Murrary plan to the automobile, worked out by one of Philip Murray's proteges. :

Nor have CIO leaders been oon-tiorit ih'efely to cheer while'the auto rndblie Industry flght wason. They have plans already prepared for in-dustfy-labbr committee operation of the steel Industry, the aluminum Industry and the copper and all other non-ferrous metal industries. All those plans provide that labor shall have an equal voice with management in the operation of the industry in question.

AVe begin to see dimly for the first time what it would mean to liave' to make the old thing " d o " much longer than we wish-^what it would uiean to "get along" witli what we have. We begin to realize that discards-tucked away in the attic, or piltd up in a shed in the back yard, or even thrown on the yilliigc dunip heai), linvc value.

Friiedoiu to waste is among the luxuries we must sacrifice during the war. We've got to begin saving our resources, turning them to be best account for victory. Though Wo may Imve to pull in our belts now, ill the long run the habit of saving will do lis good. Perhaps af­ter the Wiir, when bur factories begin turning out ail kinds of oiviliaii goods again,We'll imiko more careful use of our raw materials and have a greater appreciation of manufactured products thuir we've ever had before, ,

The President's budget for the next fiscal year, like all govern-ment'al finances, at least since the defense effort began, cites figures which, to Mr. Average Citizen, are astrinomlcal in size. .

It was, therefore, with a sigh of relief that Congressmen received the translation of the President's production schedule Into terms wiiich they and their constituents can understand. It Is felt here that the National Association of Manu­facturers' picture of the proposed program In the practical ter­minology of labor supply, floor space and machinery Is a com­prehensive one.

To meet President Roosevelt's schedule of 125,000 plans by 1943, It will be necessary to turn out one plane every four minutes, the NAM disclosed. In order to meet the President's estimate of production of 8,000,000 dead-virelght tons of merchant shipping during 1942 H win be necessary to sustahi a rate of approxlm'ately two ships a day, It was pointed out.

WASTING TIME We are being exhorted to save

paper, gasoline, rubber, and many other things. Very well, this Is all good, and a part of our patriotic duty. I often wonder if we arg not-wasting a good deal of time in little fussy things that are of iio great consequence. In peace times when life Is flowing along In nor inal channels there are a great many people who devote them­selves and their resources to little things, trivial things. Sometimes they are little cheap games; a con-slant running about to little social gatherings, and all manner of things of a useless and frivolous nature.

Now I have notleed that when war comes such people at once turn to all sorts of war activities, It gives them a sort Of thrill to be on sonie committee, and be able to flit about from place to place • In some fUssy and feverish activity.

But I often ^wonder if there is not an awful lot of wasted motion and wasted oneirgy in such mat­ters. Is It not possible that , we sometimes go to absurd extremes in organizing committees, and start a lot of activities that are of very little real value.

Now I believe we ought to do all we possibly can to win the war. : believe the situation is just as ser­ious as our leaders say It Is. I have no'doubt but much will f e required of us all. I am not afraid that any­one will do too much. But I do think that everifone when cafled upon should careiiilly consider the value of what is being done.

There are some things of- first Importance, and some agencies like the Red Cross are absolutely ne­cessary. There will not be time or money or sei'vlce enough to do the things that are vitally essential. There fore I urge that no one al­low himself or herself to be drawn Into a lot of trivial things, unne­cessary things. And I urge that there pe moderation In organizing committees. Make sure that every one, of;., them-; Js, something:,,, that , is "vital.; There will 'be plenty of -big. tilings to.do if we do not dissipate' our energies in a lot of little fussy things. Let us piit first things first, and do this with all our might. And let us be sparing In words of ha­tred and revenge, and strong In deeds tliat go right to the heart of things. President Wilson spoke of "making the world safe for demo­cracy." We have a bigger program than that now. We are now "all

Assembly Lines on Way to Win War EAST HAVEN DETROIT—American nssombly

lines are on their way. lo win tlie war, since victory by the fighting forces stems not only from the

courage of the yL\i'/SI/^ people but also

"TV''*ift»a; from the superi­ority o£ machines, Paul Garrett, Vice

President and Director of Public Relations, General Motors Corpo-ratiort, declared recently.

Citing the "thought on the heart of every patriot tliat we as a peo­ple put aside all selfish difterences for the duration of this war and unselfishly unite our efforts for the victory of our armed forces," Mr. Garrett proposed "an Ameri­can primer on how to help fur­ther tho victory ,wo all seek." Among others, he listed these sug­gestions:

1.—Let us work for victory through a better understanding in

' America that never was industry more united than now on winning this war at any cost;-

2.—Let us work for victory through a belter understanding in

: America of what it is we arc fight-' ing tor;

?.—Let us work for victory , thi-ough a boiler understanding in '• America that differences between I management and employes should i be submerged in getting tiie war i job done;

'4.—Let us work for victory through a better understanding in

: America that there is hope for a world of 1960 that transcends any-

i tiling yet known' it we will but . imagine and build it.

Tlie machine has become, Mr. Garrett said, "at this grave hour

the protector of people's right lo work and live in a free America. Nothing so has

captured the imagination of the public as our new military ma­chines. With them comes a new realization that back of the mech­anized equipment for the war front must in turn be other giant

r.nil Girroll machmoi.—machines, for produc­tion in factories and shops, .-ind still furllier back still more ma­chines and skills to make this pro­duction equipment. I

"The assembly line is now on its ' way to Win the war. Our basic ' knowledge in producing for civil- ! ian wants has given us the know- ' how in producing for war wants. I mean the know-how lo design' and build great new plants and new equipment to make intricate new weapons of war. Supplement­ing the new facilities, this know-how has enabled us frequently to adapt precision tools, designed to build the world's best industrial products, to building the World's best war machines.

"Tho task devolving upon in. dustry is to focus on production of war items urgently needed all the energy and vigor and skill that can i)e gatli- —. r-^fa ered. It will tax ii^\ t^ i-resources, it will tax manpower, it jft,.,-will lax tempera- " ' ' • ments. But it is a job industry must and will do."

This fact was made known by Lt. Ralph T.

Because the presence of aircraft can be determined accurately; and flyer's courses plotted a t the con­trol centers by means of the "flash" calls, which are placed by civilian observers at the 166 Con-nectict observation posts now manned tjventy-four hours a day, it is necessary for the Army to provide protection with only one ten th the number of reconnais­sance planes t h a t would be other­wise needed.

The vital pa r t which the Aircraft Warning Service is playing in the defense of both the East and the West coasts was emphasized a t the meeting, a t tended by approximatly three hundred men and women from every pai-t of the Sta te .

Not only is this worldwide bat t le of tanks, plftnes, warships and guns. It is also a bat t le of the factories—and, for us citizens—a "war of nerves." The side whose citizen.'!, war workers, factory workers' and soldiers can achieve and mainta in the highest degree of heal th is going to win.

But knowing this is not enough to win the war . We mus t do some­thing about it.

Lunches for father, for the chil­dren at school, breakfast ' and supper for the family together a t home, all must be carefully planned to contain the essentials of a good and 'comple te diet. Ail of us, In­cluding the housewife who plans the meals for the rest of the family and often unconsciously neglects her own diet, must eat the proper th ings .

What a re t h e elements of a prop­erly balanced diet—complete with all the essentials to give the body t h e fuel and the energy it needs?

There are only five, and they are the danger of flying glass, his risk i easy to remember . But "ail five' is only 15 per cent. . And if he is Jn a properly equipped shelter or r e ­fuge room in a house, the danger is exactly 5 per cent.

I t is then tlie duty of wardens to take reasonable precautions for, their own personal safety dur ing a n , h e a l t h : air raid. Reckless exposure t o ' 1- M"k danger mus t be avoided. A dead or wounded warden is a grea t waste of t raining.

For a second time In a succession of th ree heavy cqidcmic years the number of reported Infonllle Parolysls cases In the United States has topped tho 9,000 mark.

The figures for the fifty-two weeks of 1041, compiled by the United Sta tes Public Health Service, were released today through tho office ot Keith Morgan National Chairman of the Com-mltteo for the Celebration of the Celebration of tho Prosldciil's Birthday, for tho National Founda­tion for Infantile Paralysis, which committee conducts the annual "Fight Infantile Pnrolysis" cam­paign.

,They dlsclo.se n total of 0,050 cases for the fltly-tw'o weeks ot 1041 and reveal tha t Nevada was the only one of tho forty-eight States which was loft untouched by tho recent Infantile Paralysis equldomlcs.

Despite the fact t ha t severe eqidemlcs swept more than a dozen states Including those In tho southland with their heavy concen­trat ions of soldiers In training, the disease was kept from suieadlng to tho army cnmps.

Tho report cases in 1030 were birthday. 7,208 and, in 1040 tho count was 0,708. Those with the figures for tho past year, show tha t during the three years more than 28,000 American > homes wero Invaded by tho mysterious and body maiming virus of t ha t disease.

And the 1941 record Ls the more significant because It represents the first time in the history of tho disease in this country In which heavy Infanllo Paraylsls enlrtomlcs have continued without a break for throeconsocutlvo years.

Holmes Awarded Prize For Best Pelt Handling

• Donald Holmes, well know trapper of East Haven, is winner of a Dally Award for correct pelt preparation In the 13th National Fur Show con­ducted by the Raw Fur Marketing Service of Sears, Roebuck and..Co. ;

Holmes' carefully handled.Musk-rat pelt brought him one of the $5.00 Daily Awards, as a result, of its being Judged the best handled sl'.ln among all pelts, received ,at .Si;ars Raw Fur Receiving Station In Phlliirlelphia, Sat,. Jan. 10th—and. In addition, entitles Holmes to con­sideration for one ; of the major awards, Including ,$1,000.00 First Award, accorded In the final Judg­ing to be held In April., , - ,,

Correct, pelt preparation—the ' prime purpose .of the Fur Shows-

has proved to be of vital 1 impor­tance to trappers due to t)io ;fact that millions 1 of. dollars ijero for­merly . wasted ., through:., careless, Incorrect skinning, stretoliing. and drying, of skins—dollars., which could readily have Tgone Into the trappers' pockets Instead ot being cast to the winds. Well-prepared pelts command, more money than poorly 'handled ones-rthus Increas­ing not alone the,earnings ot the trapper, but the value ot our coun­

try's natural resources. Sears Fur Show was established to stress the point and, thus, ,to encourage cor­rect pelt handling. ,

This season's 13th National Show provides for $4500.00 in cash awards covering besides the 318 dally. $5.00 awards, ten ;maJor; awards amount-r .Ing to $l,i)60,00-rtoppod.by an,oa-^ gerly sought-after $1,000.00 First Award ••— plus twelve sectional awards for complete fur shipments --aggregating $800.00. All awards are' tor handling ot. pelt.only,; not kind or lvalue, ot skin. Every pelt shipped to Sears, during:the.terd ot the Fur. Show, is automatically considered tor. one or more awards.l Pull details' are slven In the 1041-42 edition, of 'iTlps, to Trappers";. free copy ot this, book may be ob­tained, by writing Sears Raw Fur Marketing Dcpt., Philadelphia; Penn

•rhc Story o.f. the portable "personal" radios so popular today i,? really the stoiy of the batteries that make tlie miniature receiving scls possible. 'Without important advances in construction of the power source,* radios would still be bulky, heavy, and portable only in the sense that a small suitcase is portable.

DcVolopmcnt of il soliition for th< portable dry battel^ problem was a

Baseball Hopes To Retain Normal Schedule In 1942

\ • '

, In the critical days of 1018, when the famous 'w'ork or fight" edict out of Washington, the baseball season was smothered out on Labor Day. Yet a few later, records show the Government Informed major league players that this had not been Intended and that normal plans should be made for the sport in 1019.

Unless some confusion of. this sort crops up during this second •World War, baseball men hope to continue the nation's leading spoi't with as little disruption as possi­ble. ' ,

Baseball, they point out, l,s en­tertainment for millions of Ameri­cans and It is a livelihood for the many thousands of persons who participate—either as players or as club owners managers, stenogra­phers, grounds keepers and ticket takers.

As a business, It win be called upon, toy the same sacrifices, and hardships as other enterprises, Its perspniiel .alretidy ,is being heaylly, tapptid by the military,services, .Us equipment is subject, to ,the same prta;lties thtit. air(3ct. eyerypne .else, and its finances are in Jeojardy be­cause of the uncertainty ot oEtend-ance. , , ...,,,.. '

Major, league players who have gone into the:armed forces Include Hank Greenberg,.,Bob, Feller, Cecil Travis, .Buddy Myor, Hugh Mulcahy and Sam Chapman. Others will bo called; before the season starts.

.During the. last war attendance continued good, and the leaders of both leagues,expect the Interest ot tans to remain high in spite ot the new hostilities. ..

Both tho National and American leagues will hold irieetingsln New York early next month to consider problems resulting from the war, but in the meantime aU club own­ers are going ahead with arrange­ments for their usual spring train­ing programs and.for tho season to follow.

The minor leagues, of course, are going to bear the brunt; of wars blow. Since the first draft in the tall of 1940 approximately 300 ml nor league players have Joined the Army and. Navy. Most ot, the play­ers in tho mojors are married, but the boys in the class B, C and D leagues for. the most part are younger and single. • In the opinion of William G Bramham, President of., t'lie Nur tlonal "^sociation, restrictions on tires' represent a sei;ious threat to nilnor league attendance, In the small cities most ot the ball parks are on the edge of town, trolley cars have been abandoned and bus service Is Inadequate for large crowds., .., ,,

The,game undoubtedly will make contributions to, the nation's war effort- as means become apparent. A fund,already has been estab­lished.tor the purchase of baseball equipment,to,be used at Army and Navy camps, and the proceeds of next summer's All-star game will be added to this, Exhibitions,will bo 1 played .at Army camps nild against Army teams. Uniformed iTieu will be admitted ; to league games at a nominal,charge.

Come, \yhatmay, baseball hopes to lit Itself liitpahe.scheme ot a nation at war aii'd keep'^on going.

The Connecticut Development Commission is sponsoring the first public showing ot a full-color pic­ture story of the State, "Story of Connecticut", produced In colla­boration with the Aetna Life Aff­iliated Companies, at the Connect-iicut Sjjortsmen's Show to be held January 21 through 31 at the former Wethcrsfleld Avenue car­barns in Hartford.

This picture story of tho State will be made up of more than a hundred ,full-color photographs, projected to giant size, These were selected from more than a thou­sand such photographs which formed one of the outstanding ex­hibits at the Eastern States Ex­position at Springfield last fall. This colorful and impressive pic­ture story of tho Staie aroused so much Interest at its fall showing that there have been many de­mands to have it sliown again for the benefit of many who were un­able, to see it at Springflold. . The "Story ot Connecticut" re­quires about 40 minutes for a com­plete showing, and includes a dra­matic narrative and musical back­ground.

At the invitation ' of the State Department of Agriculture, the Aetna Life Affiliated Companies agreed'to present at. Eastern States Exposition a full-color picture story ot Connecticut. This material was gathered by several professional photographers, working . under the direction of Stanley F. Withe, man ager of the . publicity "department at Aetna Life, and more than a thousand subjects were rnade and assembled within two weeks' time. , The original Aetna collection of pictures showing Connecticut in color have been enriched by addi­tion of subjects from the picture flies of the State Department Com­mission, and byiadditlonal subjects made for this particular .showing. Actually there are several complete shows, rather than just one, and those who attend the Sportsmen's Show more than once,,will see an entirely different collection of Icolor slides. '

"NOT BY BREAD ALONE" "Well," said my neighbar, coming

in tired from a day at our Red Cross headquarters and flopping down in my biggest chair, "have you heard the latest?'.'

"I don't know," I said "Wliat?" "Now its 50% of the wool of the

country that has been requisitioned tor the army. A tew ago it was rubber. At this rate, I don't see what's going to happen to the homes of he United States. Our standard of living that we've always been so proud of is certainly going to take a nose divel"

"Oh, I don't know.".'. I tried to cheer her up.

"Don't know? You mean yovi aren't concerened about all these shortages? You're willing to have your children grow up in a well, In a shambles?"

I looked around my pleasant living room, with the late afternoon sun coming in the windows. "This doesn't seem to me like a shambles exactly," I said in defense of my home, "and I think it will still be fairly comfortable Ave years from now whether I get anything new for it, or not. This house was well built and it's going to last."

"But, what yoii do when your riig wears but—or a chair falls to pieces? And what are you going to do for sheets tor your beds and for pans in the kitchen .and oh, tor a hundred tKlngs?"

"Get new ones when I need tliem. Perhaps I won't feel that I need them as soon as I would in peace time. But there are a lot ot rugs and sheets and pans, in the warehouses of this country. It's go­ing to take quite a while tor us to use up all the goods American in­dustry has stored up these past few years. And when we do—we'll still get along, I guess, because our manufacturers • aren't stodgy old fossils hanging on to the past.

They're up on their toes and when one kind ot material can't be used, they'll find another that can be."

"Synthetics, you mean?" "Yes, and substitutes. It we can't

get wool tor rugs tor a few years, our manufactures will make some­thing else for us to use on our Iloors. Some new kind ot linoleum, perhaps, or a cotton rug I don't know what. But, you wait and see. This is a rich country," I told her, "and our industrial systeni Is adap­table. We're used to a high stan­dard ot livhig and we're gbing to keep It high even it various Items in it are different.

"Besides our material com­forts aren't everything, you know. There's an old saying— from a very ancient book— that 'man does not live by bread alone.' Maybe It's time we found out about some of those others things he lives by I"

skill. The t rea tment for this type of

.skin ,1s really not complicated a t all and even a very lazy women could hardly object • to following this simple procedure: In the morning, cleanse your skin with a rich, con­centra ted cream, allowing it to re­m a i n oh while you bathe and 'dress , so tha t your skin can receive the lubricat ion ' i t needs. ' Then pat a milky skin lotion into your sithi to finish your riiornlng t rea tment .

Ill the evening, clea:nse again wi th yoiir rich cream, to r e ­move all dust and grime and to take away parched, dry feeling. Combine this cleansing with a quick massage, moving t h e creani over the surface ot j 'our face with broad upward and outward move­ments . Remove cream with tissues and pat on skin lotion.^ Then apply a film of special night cream to guard your .skin against dryness a n d flaklness while you sleep.

The dry skin Is especially sensi­tive to climatic extremes and should be carefully guarded from too much h e a t or too much cold. Protect It in the winter from cold winds by wearing a foundation film beneath your make-up, and In t h e summer, with special sunproof protcctlves.

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINTS

The Dietaiy Advantages of Molasses

-By Dr. James A. Tobey-

Pr. IcmisB A. Tobe;

DtTRING the first World War, the people ot this country

were consuming sugar a t the rate ot 80 pounds per person per year.

Today our av-lK'j0mSmm.--i ^'^^es annual

p e r c a p i t a c o n s u m p t i o n of s u g a r I s over 100 lbs.

S u g a r n o t o n l y a d d s sweetness and palatablllty to m a n y f o o d s and beverages, but is a valu­able source of

necessary food-energy. When lued in reasonable amounf.s, it

. has a legitimate place In the diet. There a re , however, o the r

sweetening agents which are far superior to sugar in food values. One of these Is mola."ises, inter­mediate product In the conver­sion ot sugar cane Into pure sug­ar. Another Is honey, made by bees from the nectar of flowers.

These natural sugars are high­er in food values because they contain Important vitamins and minerals, lacV:!iij in refined sug­ars pvodurcil ficm cane and beef?. Pure sugar 'U a carboliy-crate onlj', devoid d other nu-ttkr.tr. . ,

bleaching with sulphur dioxide, is rich in iron. This mineral is.re- { quired In the daily diet for good'i red blood, and to help prevent! anemia. Molasses also contains a substantial amount ot calcium,' which the body needs for various ' purposes, including proper use ot iron. ';

If old fashioned molasses Is eaten as a spread on enriched bread, which Is also a good source ot iron and calcium, each slice of this bread and molasses should supply about one quarter of your daily needs tor this essential min­eral. '

Similarly, It a tablespoonful of old fashioned molasses Is stirred Into a glass of pasteurized milk, this pleasing beverage will sup­ply a large par t ot your Iron re­quirement. If taken two or three-times a day. Another goodwaj^' to use molasses Is mixed with but­ter and egg yolk as a spread tor bread.

, In these days when healthful diets tor all people are of the ut­most significance to national de­fense, greater dependence should be placed upon natural foods, than upon foods that are too' highly processed or refined. Some of our needs for carbohydrates should be met with natural sug­ars such 'as good old fashioned molasses. '

Health Officer Speaks On Duty Of His Office

Dr. Arthur S. McQueen ot Mon towese Street was the speaker a t the meeting of tlie Branford Rot­ary Club Monday noon which was a t tended by 36 including Dr. Jaihes Murphy ot Mlddletown and Artliur E. Hall of New Haven. He used as his subject, "Health and Sanitat ion Problems in Branford."

He told ot the progress which has been made during his 24 years as hea l th officer in th is town, in clear­ing unsani tary spots where the sewage disposal was faulty, espe­cially along the shore. He cited several specific cases where owners were forced to stop polluting s treams and the water supply, ppr several years there have been' p rac ­tically no cases of diphtheria in town, this being mainly due to the diphtheria immunization which has been given to the school children.

He also pointed out the value of a hea l th certificate which is re quired for a pupil to . r e tu rn to schaoljatte^-an' UUiess.' SeveraT^Ud case of scarlet fever are thus dis­covered and epidemics averted.

Dr. McQueen said t ha t the ordin­ances passed at the town meeting in December are going to promote better hea l th conditions through the regulation of sewage disposal, piggeries and the t ransporta t ion of garbage.

Rush For Birth Records Keeps "Win" Occupied

Perhaps you aren't who you are a t all or perhaps you weren't born on the date you have been cele­brating all these years. Such m a t ­ters have come to light In recent months when registrar of vital s ta ­tistics Wlnfleld Morgan and his assistant. Miss Hazel Van Wie, started handing out copies of birth certificates.

Federal requirements for certain service and t h a t all persons work Ing in defense plants mus t be citi zens of the United S ta tes has re suited in a record-breaking number of b i r th certificates issued.

One of the factors in the big rush is t h a t all persons "using coastal waters" working or visiting water­front property, must produce their bir th certificates before identifica­tion papers will be made out.

So If you see a line in front of the town hall do not be deceived t h a t they are persons ottering to sand the roads. They may jus t be clam diggers asking tor bir th cer­tificates. • '

', A very well at tended lecture was given on Tuesday evening, J anua ry 27, a t Woolsey Hall under the au­spices of the American Inst i tute of Electrical Engineers. Dr. Perrlne of the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company, assisted by Miss Swensen as demonstrator, de scribed In detaU the workings ot the Voiler'machine which manufac­tures artificial speech.

He brought out the fact t h a t the first a t t empt to imitate speech was made in 1780 with little success.

To the men and women patrol-Ing the windswept beach or hil l­top, with eyes cast aloft and ears a t tuned to catch the throb of air plane montors the "longles" are a big comfort—really a necessity.

If you have, or know where you can get a nice warm union suit ; and you yourself, are not enrolled In the Aircraft 'Warning Service, under the direction ot Robert Cate, which now operates with 105 others observation posts throughout the s ta te on a twenty-four hour basis, you will be helping national de tense, if you notify American Le­gion headquarters t h a t such gar ­ments are available. The Legion which has organized the Warn ­ing Service in Connecticut will see' t ha t your garments are distributed to observers.

Hunt ing boots, wlndbreakers and other warm clothing ot like na ture are all welcomed. "The men and women spotters of Connecticut are doing an impor tant Job," says Ar­thu r Connell, State Commander- ot the American Legion, "a Job tha t Is vital to our protection but which carries with it little glory and t a r too little recognition. To some ot these spotters warm clothing would be welcome and no doubt would be forthcoming promptly if people generally only knew their require­ments ."
