Business Houses Conserve Paper
In the small towns and on the farm as well a s in the big cities Americans who may not be serving In t h e front lines can also contr i bute their share to winning tho war thrpugh conservation.
Little things which never seemed Important bofort are now vital to victory.
When you save paper, scrap metal, when you tu rn out the light if Is Is not needed, when you make your tires and o ther articles of peace last longer, when you use one paper towel Instead of two, you are doing your pa r t in tho war eflort.
You ordinarily would no t a t tach much importance to careful use of paper towels or tissues, bu t conservation of tha t kind, which is a good thing even In peacetime, assumes a greater meaning when It Is realized tha t the saving of one paper towel makes the same product available to a defense worker and contributes to nat ional hea l th .
Do your share to conserve paper by using fewer towels. Conserve washroorn supplies. Towels, soap and tissues, protect your heal th . War declared on waste. Do your par t by conserving towels. Dont waste paper.
Write letters briefly and to the point. When you can ' t be brief write on both sides of le t terheads and second sheets.
Materials no t In use should be sold as scrap to other companies t h a t can uso them, ..
All maehnlery will last longer and produce tho most a t lowest cost if serviced regularly. Complete inventory should be taken to divert to scrap all material no longer In use.
Organize a waste and scrap committee by using the regular supervisory stall or depar tment heads and foremen with one m a n a s con sorvatlon co-ordinator. All work, ers should realize the pa r t they are playing In America's war eflort.
The campaign, .which is a public service in a wart ime emergency, has been designed to serve a three-fold purpose. I t Is an active contr ibution to America's war elTort, it establishes clean habits which will outlive the" war and It Identifies tho participating plants and worker.? in a nat ional crusade, t h e War on Waste.
We- al\yays stressed conservation during peacetime, sold William F. Mohan, First Vice-President of the Scott Paper Company. However, such a program has assumed a greater significance since Pearl Harbor.

Safety Hazard Given Thought By Selectmen The Board ot Selectmen a t its
meeting Thursday night took steps toward the eliminating of an alleged safety hazard caused by lack ot sidewalks on the Saltonstall cut-off bridge over Farm River. The board decided to take up further with the State Highway De-part rhent the alleviation of the situation, either through the use of state or local funds. Inasmuch as the s ta te is concerned only with vehicular t ransportat ion, i t was the opinion tha t the provision for pedestr ians would probably be a m a t ter for t h e town to take care of, possibly by the erection of a foot bridge from the end of Tuttle Place to s ta te highway property east ot the river. I t was felt tha t such a foot bridge would not cost much more than'$1200 and would believe the present dangerous condition. The first selectman will consult further with state offlcials concerning the bridge.

Sale Of Seals Will Carry On Broad Program
Walter 11, Palmer has been ap pointed chairman of tlic local committee In charge of the annual Easter seal sale of the Connecticut Society for Cilppied Children which has Just Opened. Tho sale In Branford is sponsored by the local Rotary Club, and other members ot the committee nre : Charles E. Bedienl, Honorary chai rman; T. Holmes Bracken, Gurdon Bradley, J o h n . E . Bralnerd, Horry G. Cooko, Charles F. Freeman, Dr. Charles W. Qayiord. Dr. Philip H. Qorlach, William L. Meflert, Jr., John Murphy, Rev. Frederic R. Murray, Emil A. Nygard, Sidney V. Osborn, S, A. Petrillo, Raymond E. P inkham and John S. Rogers.
In commenting on this year's campaign, Mr. Palmer said: "The broad program carried on by the society within our Sta te for the benefit of the physically ha'ndi-caped is now more vital than ever. The calling of ablebodlcd men Into the armed forces h a s created a' shortage of industrial manpower. This makes the Society's program of vocational aid ot utmost Impor-tonce. Through their two carefully supervised workshops, located in . Hartford and Bridgeport, many already have been restored to the point where they have taken a place in defense industries. Many more who wan t to do their pa r t are waiting for the opportunity a s soon as additional facilities are available.
" In addition, the Society has expanded its 'medical program, and in 1041 over 3,000 urgently needed physiotherapy t rea tments w o r e financed • through Easter seals sale funds." ..„Mr.„,Pntasr_ptigj!ificj.J,Jie.*Wlnfc tha t , although the numo of the Society would indicate t h a t tho program was confined to crippled children, actually It embraces cripples of all ages,

This war has produced three military lenders of the first rank — General MaoArtlmr of the United States, Marbhal Tiraoshen-ko of the Soviet Union, and Generalissimo Chiang Kai Chc.k of China. The last has a particular distinction, in thi)l he is,heal,of his government, us well as its active conniiauder in military affairs.
It is significant timt all of these commanders believe ui t)ie offensive, and pursue the offensive. MacArthur, of course, is carrying on wlmtjs eiiseutially a. defensive action, but he eontiuually takes the battle to the enemy. Time-shenko has won immense vieto rics, which have cost the Germans millions of men, by use of the most daring offensive tactics. And Chiang Kai Chek, for live years, bus flung his superbly brave, ill-equipped armies, against the Ja]) and kept him out of the heart of China.
I t is for that reiispu that recent changes in the commands of the United States Army and Navy should encourage tbe country. Some "super conservatives" have been cased out. And younger aggressive men'ore cominjj in tn top positipns.
GET BEADY! j
If .this country is attaoked, a: start ,will undoubtedly bo inadei \yilii inqendiary bombs. The mpst' common typo of .the;ae bombs — and the most.effective type •— is liglit, small and safe for an en-; emy ,to handle. A .single Ijombing pla|ie,eaii carry ^OOO.br.mor.o of tlioip. And each, of the •.hpmbu is' capable of starting a major fire
The moral of this is clear: One of the first and most essentia steps to be taken in defense of-thij) continent h to perfect our, Jlro defense. 'Loiidon and Other' ISnglisIi cities would not exist to-' day if their llre-ligliting organ izn-lions, profefisional ,nnd volunteer aliltc, hud npt ju'oduood miracles. Experts are convinced that it is perfectly possible for an enemy to rq,aoh und.attaok our i)rincipal iadustrjal ^centers froin bases lo-; catcd in Europe and the Par Kost.
llerc, tlien, is a real civil defense job. Relatively few American cities and towns have sufficient flre-fighting equipment to deal with a big attack. Relatively few eonmiuiiities have as "yet developed adequate fire prevention and lire-fighting forces. Tho improperly prepared community is wide ppen to tragedy and utter disaster.
Tlieve is no jtime to Jose. In every town, no matter how smul Ure-figliting training should be given to civilian groups. Additional equipment should be pur-chased us fast us possible. German fire rajds on English cities have slowed to a standstill for just one reason: The British have learned to eppe with Ibcm and to rob them of their terrors. An enemy docs not waste materials and energy when it becomes obvious that the results obtained are not worth the,price paid.
In short, fire — whether it comes from within or without — can be licked. It need hold no terrors for an iuformedi prepared, equiiiped people.

TAXATION FOR SURVIVAL Pniin time to time in recent months clinrgos of " h u g e " profits
made on war contracts jiave come from Wnshiugton, Report after rcpprt .has paraded .thrpiigh 1,lie nation's headlines, A few extreme calies >vere seized upon, and many people began to believe that these extremes wei;e normal.
As .a.matter of fact, they're not. The Vinson committee csti-l)iatftd .thai (i 7 ,pe'r cent iirol'it .is "fair and just ," and found that .V\ppn.olI government contracts profits have averaged (),5 per cent.
Industry is not holding out for exccssivo profits. If anyone doubts that, tlio recent action of the National Association of Manu-taqtjircrs.i^iiould set liiin rigght, Por the-N.A.M,,.which represents SP.pcr.ccJit of the nation's war production manufncturers, is iirging Congress to adopt a iirogram of taxation " t o tlie limit — leaving only enough for survival — in order to guiirnntee victory, to eliminate prpfit.ccring and to insure the future .solvency pf pur govern-inent,' ' According to .this program, ' ' all corporations and individuals wi th incpinc slipuld be taxed to the maximum pf their ability to pay for the terrific iburden of this war ,"
In this emergency every group in ,tlie country miiWt po-operatq ;to \h.e,fullest extent jf America is going to lick the Axis in the shortest,possible tamp. Such ,an,appeal for a tnx program indicates how completely industry realizes this. Nothing else matters but victory. Hut to achieve it, we've got to work logotber — pay and work and saei'itlce as we never have before. No matter \\lial the co.st, however, it'acbeappr than defeat.

A qouple pt the Washington newspaper correspondents were talking about the war the other day . . . Just "the mess we're in," as one of them put It.
After some lamenting, some dragging over the coals, and lots or theories about what's wrong, one of the buys with his ear to the ground picked up a well-known Washington dally.

I fear that that Is Just what our American people sometimes do. Now General MacArthur Is receiving all sorts of extravagant praise. I suppose plenty of babies will be named after him, and also streets and public building's and parks, .and what not. This Is all done with the best of Intentions. , And I yield to rio one In my admiration for what Gen, McArthur has done. He has made one of the' few bright spots In this sad war. But there Is time enough to bestow u.Don him all of the honor that he deseryes.'Aiid time often brings great changes'In public sentiment.

year, , . . A large automobile company, con
verted to the production of war materials, built three new plants to make aircraft eiigines. The number of workers in these new plapts will exceed thetotal employment of the company's entire peacetime staff.,..
Another well-known manufacturer announced a plan for giving employees defense bonds and stamps' for workable suggestion. Any suggestion dealing with increasing production on the employee's own Job, or for improving quality, saving ma-trlal, reducing waste, or improving woi'klng' coridltions generally are welcome.
HOME FIRES Since America was bombed into the war on December 7 we've
seen hoijie rough going for our side. We've had to take bad news lis best we could, and it Inisn'l been easy. Iluliehed over our papers, bending closer to our radios, we've all passed tbrojigh some dismal mpfiiqnts of anger and despair. '
Before this war is ended we'll pass tbrougli many more. Even though our factories arc speeding up their production of war materials we won't have enougli lo lake the offensive on a big scale for many u long month to eome, Wu're going to l<ave;tp work harder than we ever .have before. "We're going to have to face ugly facts with courage, shut our eyes and ears to defeat, dig in and do our jobs better than ever. That's the only way we can win.
Our war industries nrc trying in many ways to deliver the goods as fast as po.ssiblc. In addition to all their other job^ they're' trying to.keep up the morale of tlieir.employees, for dwing the last war, when morale sagged, produelioii also dropjied. To keep .that from happening this time, some plants are serving betweeu-iueals ".snacks" to offset fatigue caused by longer hours. Others are sup-, plying free homc-tpwn aiewspupers to counteract homesickness in' workers wJio are away from home. Pep rallies, special recognition for extra-liard-working employees —they ' re trying not to overlook a single thing that will increase production.
Keeping up morale is u job that all of us can do, however. I t ' s bound to be tough, giving u]) many of our easy comforts, diangiug our lives under the impact of w.ar. But we can do it cheerfully, and we must. For back here behind the lines we've got to keep.those "hpnic fires" burning, 'We've got to aeeeptwhat we must and keep' going, Indeed, that 's the very least that we can do.
Another happy side to the news ' Congressmen report that the
home folks are coming through in the' present crisis.
For example, one .representative reported that a whole city was re-, arranging its lite to out; down transportation waste. In order to conserve tires and .to ease bus transportation, which is .absolutely essential tor war. wpifkers, schools and stoics will vary opening and closing liours, factories will stagger their shifts, and pay days will be spread throughout the week.
AnotUer.member'pf .Congress lauds the lesouircelulness of management as evidenced: by the topgh problems they tackled and solved in changing over from pgactime to war production. He comes from an Industrial region which until recently housed qn essentially light rnetal working industry, and is.now lyprking on the production of heavy goods.
try was aflame with his; praise. Some one foolishly got him to come to this country and lecture on the event, while he was still In the service/ In one place some over enthusiastic girls' got to him and kissed him. But the newspapers took it up, and I. guess to his dying day he never heard the last of it, • I presume many times he wished he had sunk himself in the Santiago harbor.
Another great hero of that war wos Admiral George Dewey, Born in yermont, py the way. No one could do enough for him. They gave lilni a. marvelous reception in f^ew.yprk. He was -treated like a Roman cpnouerer returning to his native;C|ty. .He.was given a beautiful ^word, and a liouse Ui Washington. He settled down in Washington and finally got married. In his enthusiasm for his wife he deeded her this new house, certainly a gracious act. But the country was aflame with indignation, and his fame suffered a good deal of an eclipse. General Grant did not fare quite so' adly, ' But he was a far better military leader than he was President of the IJnited States, The last office added nothing to tlie luster of his fame. Possibly just the opposite. ' So,let,us not oyerdo a,good;thing.

ON THE SUBJECT OP WAR ' With all the modern destructive
war machines now in use in the armies of the world, and no matter how much damage they are credited with doing, there has always have some means t6 protect them. So it is with the battleship, the airplane, and all others. With better armor and equipment they have been able to protect themselves against attack from the enemy.
Now what about our troops? It seems that the gangsters have something that might help in that respect, and by that we mean if the soldiers were to be equipped with a light metal bullet-proof vest of some material that would not hamper a man in action, but at the same time something strong enough to-'withstand the ordinary shell now in use. Of course we do not mean a direct hit, but in the event of minor hits it would save a lot of injury that otherwise would be unavoidable. With all the experimentation going on every day I think that it would be worth-while to experiment on that,

Tiiere is nothing so disgusting as to see a woman drunk.
It is futile to feel brutal,to wards a human full of spunk.
In a frenzy over envy is indeed a folly—
•yet, a wife who's full of life is a better bet, by golly!

"TlfJ-HEART?" ByRuthEvls
Darling,—:don'0 you realize—Yet,— That you, and I—"bolong"? Didn't ypu lecl,~whcn lirst we met, That. bond,—sp . sweet — so strong ? Darling,—though we've scoffed at,

Each year, Mr, Buttrick said, thousands of these little animals are given away usually by well-meaning paren(.s who hope to bring joy into their children's heart's, but all too few of thpse people have suitable .places to .keep .'and care fpr the newly acquired pets. Aside frem sqiieezlng, petting, Improper food ,and living conditions they have to undergo in the average home, these creatures are also exposed . to hiinger, thirst,, excessive temperatures, accidents and spme-times, various dyeing processes before their sale. As a result very few live to maturity, fhis is a, useless and unnece.ssary sacrifice of i|fe and .sets a bad example for young children. Childhood experiences should develop kind attitudes .and teach correct care ai)d, treatment.
, Mr. Buttrlclc also stated that, this year, according,,to its annijal pus-tom, the Humane Society has asked stores and pet shops to rofu.se to sell chicks In lots of less than six or more. The Society also/has urged dealers to refrain froni dyeing chlqks or bunnies.. Many merchants 'have acknowledged their Intent to cooperate in this project.
Mr. Buttrick advocated the purchase of one of the many excqllent Easter toys that stores are now featuring as a good substitute for the live animals. This; he said, would decrease the needless sufler-Ihg'and-probable deaths of many chicks and rabbits, ••' • ' : &• H

WAR PRODUCTION BOARD LIMITS FUTURE TELEPHONE INSTALLATIONS
Effective immediately, to further conserve materials essential to the war effort, the War Production Board has ordered the telephone industry to limit future installations of both subscribers' and central office equipment as wel l as cables and wire lines.
Subject to future orders by the W a r Production Board, telephones now in service wi l l not be affected unless customers move or desire rearrangements or changes in their existing equipment.
HOW THE ORDER AFFEGS TELEPHONE USERS
1 EXTENSION TELEPHONES v^-ill not be installed In residences r vjniess required for public health, welfare or security.
2 TELEPHONES wil l not be changed from wall and desk types to handsets. '
3 SWITCHBOARDS in business establishments wil l not be converted from a manual to a dial basis.
4 PARTY LINES wil l be installed where sharing of lines wil l conserve scarce and critical materials.
5 TELEPHONE EXCHANGES will not be converted from manuat to dial operation, except where the work is under way. Only additions or replacements necessary to the maintenance or protection of the service will be made. Existing equipment and facilities will be conserved or reused wherever possible.
This Company, of course, wi l l comply with the War Production Board order and do its utmost to achieve new sovings of vi tal war metals such as lead, steel, copper and zinc. On a voluntary basis for more than a year, we have taken every practical means to conserve these critical materials.
This order brings us to the point where we must ask Connecticut telephohe users to "get along with what we have." However, you may be sure the 5,500 telephone men and women of this state wi l l continue to exert every effort to give you the best possible service.
Your continued co-operation and understanding wil l be helpful as > e all make essential sacrifices for Victory.

WHICH SEASON DO YOU PREFER? *
Z.oi<i5c Branahini
Which season do you prefer? Is It winter when not a flower will
st ir? Or is It the fall when we thresh
the wheat? Perhaps It's summer when there's
nothing but hea t?
In winter there Is plenty ot snow, But the storms out won't let us go. So It would be very dull If It weren' t for the twit ter of the
gull.
In the summer we can always go Out In the sea to swim or row, And we can do the same In early
fall; But I don ' t prefer these seasons a t
all.
For me when March winds begin to blow, :ir.
And April showers end all the snow.
And little peepers begin to peep! Awakening natiire from her.sieepi
When I hear th^ robin sing, I know It's time again for spring And I'll meet these signs again with
cheer, For they bring iily favorite season

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINTS
Another Improvement in Army Diet
-By Dr. lamoB A. Tobey-
DT. James A. Toboy
THE undeniable fact tha t our army is the best-fed flahting
force in the world has been frequently pointed out in this col
umn. Good as t h i s d i e t h a s been, however, i t win bo even be t tor in the future.
Early InFeb-r u a r y t h e Q u a r t e r m a s t e r G e n e r a l a n n o u n c e d t h a t hereafter all bread used i n t h e a r m y
would be enriched with vitamins and minerals. By this military adoption of enriched bread, all soldiers will now get Increased amounts of the indlsponsable B vitamins, as woU as more of the iron needed for good red blood.
Since our yotjng," active and healthy'troops require plenty of the right kind of food-energy, bread la popular. Every soldier •consuuies an average of eight slices of bread a day, which sup
' plies about 580 of the 4000 or more calories ne^ilcd In his daily diet.
When 'made from enriched white flour or with- enriched reast, these eight slices ot bread furnish a t , leas t ono quarter of the vitamin" B,", "or'HitaWlneiTo-
quirod dally by the sqHler, even though the bread itssil supplies only about one seventh of his calories, or units ot:lood-energy. These olght slices prfovlde at least one-sbtth of the Iron needed, and about one-tenth oft the niacin, another irajwrtant vitamin ot the vitamUi B group.
If even more bread Is consumed, greater amounts of these valuable nutrlentswlU.of course, be . obtatacd. The use oit milk in the making of the bread, as is customary, assures a supply, ot vitamin B,, or riboflavin, arid also ot the necessary food-minbrals, calcium and phosplwrus.
Fortunately, enriched wiiito bread is no t restricted to army itse, but is available to all cbn-suniers,.wtxo,should ask their grocers or 'bakcrsfdr this liutritldft-ally Improved product. Civilians as well as soldiers need superior diets in these parlous times.
Enriched white broads not only have all t h e dietary advantages of whole wheat, but are bettor In some respects.These white broads are easily digested, atl^ractlve iii flavor innd •taste, and furiiish g r e a t e r a b u n d a n c e - o f c e r t a i n food-minerals. " . • The word "enriched" doesinot mean tha t this bread is actually rlchcr-or'ls-fftttening.- - - -•'

Red Cross Notes + On February lOth, 1942, the last
day ot the conference of the Committee on National -Voluntocr Service, the Chicago Sun printed this editorial;
" I t takes all kinds of Copperheads to lose a war ; and there arc many kinds In th i s country. Among the lowest are those who criticize and slander the American Red Cross ni\d tho work It is doing for the men in service and their families.
"Venomous poison has been spewed a t the Red Cross recently, and it has caused considerable grief and uneasiness to mothers of soldiers and sailors serving abroad. 'Knowing ones' whisper slyly tha t the Red Cross makes no accounting ot the millions of dollars entrusted to It by the public. This, ot course, Is not t rue. A report is published every year, after a careful audit has been made by the War Department. Others insinuate, and oven sometimes boldly declare, t h a t soldiers and sailors have to buy from the Red Cross whatever they need—are even charged for medical attention.
"The biggest Job the Red Cross has is t h a t ot working with soldiers and sailors and members of their families, caring for the sick and wounded, taking care ot their he lpless dependents, keeping the morale high, both in the' camp and at home.
•'It is Important , most important, t ha t morale be nialntalncd. The Copperheads realize this. Hence their vicious and sly at tacks on the integrity ot the Red Cross. Destroy faith in one civilian organization t h a t sliould be, and is, above suspicion—-you've destroyed morale."
PRODUCTION
UKD CROSS INFORMATION
Aware, a t last, t h a t this business ot bombs falling on American cities is more t h a n Just a .taint- possibility, Mr. a n d ' M r s . America are beginning to make plans , tor ,homc-Uvlng during emergencies.
Paramount in their minds is the food quesllon. Jus t how.they nsk, should tlie family eat it public utilities are shu t ofi!, and the grocpr down the street has decided to stay home tor a tew days, or a t least until he Is sure t h a t enemy raiders have been blasted froni the skies and tho "All-Clear" signal is around to slay for awhile.
American Red Cross nutr i t ionists oHor ' th l s advice: Slock up a "war pantry," and be sure t h a t Is contains the kinds pt food tha t will supply the energy necessary to keep the spirits from fiaggliig.
To feed a heal thy adult for a ^Yeek during such omergonclcs the Red Cross nutrit ionists suggest the following foods:
Two tall t ins ot unsweetened milk. Mixed with one pa r t water, this win glvo two quarts of milk. Milk, by the way. Is tho best all-round food there Is.
One pound of whole grain crackers.
One can of pork and beans. There are lots ot food value here; besides, it slicks to the ribs,
One tin of meat , preferably pork, beet, spam, or the like. No chicken here. It 's loo delicate. •
Oncrhalf pound of store cheese, There arc tew foods as nourishing as cheese.
One small Jar of peanu t butler . Besides taking the place of butler , it Is an excellent source ot Vitamin. B ond h^ou.
One package ot dried fruit, such as ralslns,prunes and aprlcote, to provide the a l l - important -Vitamin A and B, plus iron. /
A chocolate milk bar, necessary because of its high caloric value.
A can of vegetables, preferably pea.s, beans, corn or asparagus. Vegetables which,can be eaten cold are first choice, since hea t may be out oir by enemy action.
Those emergency war rat ions, Rod Cross nutri t jonlsts say, are enough to keep tho average citizen from having ntaryatlon pains, and they will provide tho necessary vltamliis and calories. '
The nutrit ionists suggest adding

Spurred by an Incroashig wave of patriotism and the opoiilng ot additional donor centers, blood donat ions to the Rod Cross for the Army and Navy have passed tho ,100,000 Mark, with a total of ioG,p2B persons donating blood through February 14.
The American Rod Cross will establlsli two service clubs for soldiers, sailors and marines from the Unled Stales now on duty in Northern Irolond, ChaU-man Norman H. Davis announced.
ON THE DOCKET
The following, is a s tatement made by Mrs, Sloan Colt, Asslstaiit Director, Production Corps.
"The Product ion 'Corps is probably the best-knpwn ot the Red Cross -Volunteer'Groups, because ot the vast number of 'dressings. Al - , though exact figures are not avail-1 such items to the larder as a thi ot able. It has been' .est imated tha t copoo, dried soups which can bo around two million women are oc- made ,by inlxlng with .water, h i -cuplod in this work Wo thank-thorn 'frbm the bottom of oiir -hearts and wish we could h a n d out wool and cotton and we miiSt abide by our agreement with the W r Production Board, and knit for the Armed Forces only to fill the demands of Commanding Offlcers—to make only those garments for civilian reflet either a t home or abroad which.are absolutely necessary.
"An est imate has .been made ot the number garments needed to meet requests from the Armed Forces for the fiscal year of 1042-43.
'"rhe total amount ot yarn available to t h e Red Cross between now and January 1st, 1043 will bo around 1,300,000 pounds. This will be a l located In what seems the fairest and most practical method, namely on tile basis of population In the Chapter 's territory. This will amount to about one pound per 100 population. This will entail a further curtai lment ot knit t ing.
The Chairmen of Home Nursing Committees -will a t t end a meeting In New Haven Wednesday afternoon a t the New Haven Chapler Headquarters.
Stantaneous .epfleo or tea, nu t s of all;kirids,- .tlhniiii -lofives , o f : d a t e -nu t bread or feostpn brown bread.
I f t h e r o I s a n InyAlld or n baby In the family, by all means. Red Cross nutritionists worn, keep some strained baby food on hand.
One other suggestion. Be careful n o t ' to keep any foods In galvanized iron or copper containers, which poison the food and produce serious consequences lor the unsuspecting eater.
A Joint s t a tement by the American Red Cross and the United Serlcve Organizations declareO t h a t the Red 'Cross is responsible for welfare service to units of the a rmed lorcos In garrison or on active duly in the field., or proceeding In t ransi t as members ot an organized body under orders.

Adequate Wafer In Reservoirs For Any Emergency
w i t h ncarlry 7,000/000,000 gallons of water available In the sixteen reservoirs of the Now Haven Water Company, th is city's defense Industries and domestic consumers are assured of an adcauato water supply this spring and summer, according to engineers of the company..
The engineers foresee no necs-slty of curtailing the use of water a t present, a l though they caution against careless wpste of the supply. Tile total amount of water on hand Is 1,300,000,000 gallons less than last year a t th l s t lme . ' bu t a normal rainfall during the next three months would provide " rea sonably good conditions for the summer", It Is reported.
The rainfall since Janua ry 1 has been about seven Inches, D per cent below normal, and h a s added 1,-780,000,000 gallons of water to the rciorvolrs. I t is e s t i m a t e d - t h a t about as per cent of the total ra infall since the first of the year has reached the reservoirs, During the mon th of February, when the p r e cipitation was 2.58 inches, water storage was Increased by 701,000,000 gallons. In Janua ry 1,070,000,000 gallons of water v/ero added to t h e supply.
With these additions to the supply, the engineers feel confident t h a t Now Haven's dally demand of about 32,000,000 gallons of water can be met. The water use of the ci(,y's expanded defense Industries has Increased the dally demand by nearly 4,000,000 gallons to the p re sent figure.
Immediate rains would be a boon to the water supply, the engineers point out, because a t present the ground Is hard and most of the precipitation flows into the reservoirs, while In the latd spring or summer as Uttlo as 10 per cent reaches storago points. , "
The snowfall, usually a good som'ce of replenishment for the res ervoirs, was l ight this year. There was no snow on the ground on Janua ry or February, and tlie heaviest fall for this year was only three and one- thi rd Inches.
In December, 1041, according to the engineers, the lake's water level which ordlnarlUy should have been six feet blow the over flow, was twelve feet below.i In February and March, however, this condition improved and It Is predicted tha t the water level may reach a point three or four feet below the spillway be fore it becomes necssary to draw from storago. This would indicate a deficiency of about 1,500,000,000 gallons, the engineers est imate They hope to erase the deficiency some time during the year by diminishing the amount of water t a ken from this supply.
With Saltonstall and Whitney-vllle pumping stations both in operation, the engineers believe it will be possible to reduce the draf t from Lake QalUard from about 18,000,-000 gallons a day to 12,000,000 gallons. By accomplishing th i s reduction, it Is explained, the water level will be raised to a point a t the end of the year which will assure the lake's being Allied in 1043. The Gaillard reservoir h a s a tota l c ap acity of 0,400,000,000 usable gallons of water.
Mr. Scott pointed out t h a t some communities already faced serious shortages. In New Haven, however, the engineers say, It is likely t h a t no restrictions will be placed on the use of water for lawn sprinkling or lor other non-essential usages, unless there are unusually severe droughts later In the year.
