Governor Marcus H. Holcomb has issued an appeal to the people of Con- necticut to- consult the Connecticut State Council of Defense before un- dertaking any war activity so that waste and duplication of effort may be avoided and "every ounce of power that there is in our state may be de- voted efficiently to the task of win ming the war" The appeal follows:
 "On April 26, 1917, under power vested in me by Chapter A of the Public Acts of 1917, I appointed the Connecticut State Council of Defense by proclamation, with me and under my direction to conduct the prosecu- tion of the war so far as concerns this state and with power to cooper ate with other states and with the Federal Government
 "For more chan six months this council has been performing the tasks for which it was organized. It was clearly the intention of the Fed eral Government when it asked me to appoint this council, and it was my intention in carrying out that request, that the Connecticut State Council of Defense should have full supervision over Connecticut's part in the civilian activities called for by the prosecution of the war.
 Multiplicity of organizations att tempting to do the same thing results in duplication and waste. If our state is to perform its part to its full est efficiency, there must be no waste and, therefore, no duplication.
 "I urgently desire that the citizens of Connecticut cooperate fully with the Connecticut State Council of De- fense and undertake no war activity without consulting the council, which has its offices in the State Cap ital, Hartford. Every ounce of pow CT that there is in our state must be devoted to the task of winning the war; every bit of individual eff fort to help Americas cause is well comed and appreciated by your gov ernor. 1t is to secure the greatest power from the effort expended that I ask the people of our state to con- suit the Connecticut State Council of Defense before they inaugurate any new effort, in order that the whole organization of the council may be made available to every desirable un- i dertaking and that there may be no , duplication of effort and wasted energy.
 'I make this appeal to the people of Connecticut, feeling certain that they will see the importance of this call to their patriotism, and will re- spond to a request which is intended to keep Connecticut a leader among the states in the efficiency and value to the government of her response to the nations call for service.

 "Covcrnor."

Real Test of States Loyalty.

Tn making public this warning" the Connecticut State Council of Defense gave out the following statement:
 "The time has come when every ounce of power in America must be used for a single object-winning the war. Nowhere is this more true than in Connecticut, "the arsenal of the na- tion," for our country is depending upon this state for more than half of the tremendous supply of munitions which America must provide for use in the struggle to overcome autoe- racy.
 we are now face to face with the real test of Connecticut's loyalty to the republic. The next few months will show whether this state is en- titled to the reputation 1t enjoys as a leader among the states of the Union in war service to the nation, or must be known to the world as a stacker state.
 "All effort-every resource in men and money and materials-must be directed to the task of winning the war. If Connecticut responds to this call, her loyalty can never be ques- toned. The people of this state must respond, and will respond, to this na- tional demand that those things which are non-essential be cast aside and that our whole force be directed to essential work.
 "The consideration of new enter prises-personal occupation, public improvements, building construction and industrial work of every descrip- tion-must be guided Ly the test: Will 1t help win the war? The whole force of the nation must be directed toward the nations one paramount task Connecticut must do its share, and more, in laying aside all non essential enterprise and devoting Its entire resources to essential work. It is highly probable that, through fed eral legislation and the already es- tablished priority system, the use of labor and materials for all unessen' tial purposes will be made impossi ble during the war. The loyal citi zens of Connecticut will not wait until such legislation is enacted to respond to the nations demand in its hour of need"

State Council of Defense Warns Connecticut BuSi- ness Men Against New Enterprises. I
PREDICTS RESTRICTIONS THROUGH NEW STATUTES
No New Undertakings in Factories, Building Activities, Public Improve ments, Etc., Should Be Considered Warning Says, Unless Materials Required Win Contribute to Prose. cution of War.

The Connecticut State Council of Defense has issued "a warning against undertaking any new enter. prises which do not contribute direct. ly to the war strength of this country or its allies" until victory is won, at the same time declaring that, "in the course of time, no one need be sur. prised if, during the war, the use of labor and materials for all non-essen. tiai purposes is made impossible by regulation or statute.'
 The warning" which will be circu' lated widely throughout the state, fol- lows:
 Text of Warning.
 "New enterprises which do not di- rectly contribute to the war strength of this country, or Its allies, should not be undertaken.
 During the period of the war any new enterprises or undertakings should be tried and justified by this test:
 "'Will the men, money and mate rial required by this enterprise best contribute in this way to the winning of the war?'
 Every man and every resource will be needed by our country during tho war All efforts should be centered on winning.
 "There is no uncertainty or ambigu- ity about this statement of your duty.
 Men who are considering new en- terprises, public improvements, dwell ings, factories. industrial work of any description should be guided by the above test.
 "The above should prepare the minds of business men for action af- fecting the full operation of those in- dustries not essential to the national defense and also affecting the con- sumption by the public of luxuries and non-essentials.
 "In the course of time no one need be surprised if during the war the use of labor and materials for all non-es- sential purposes is made impossible by regulation or statute. CONNECTICUT STATE COUNCIL
