Bidding the others adieu, the young

Battalion Major Brent's acknowl-

in the response of the third officer,
Col. Richard Dare. their regimental
leader, kindly personal interest was
obvious.

The colonel chuckled soberly as a
saturnine look crept into the majors
face. Then he did an unusual thing.

 The Committee on Foreign Born Population of the Connecticut State Council of Defense has opened a temporary office and headquarters in New Britain, where Chairman Stanley IT.

 The first meeting of this con- mittce was held at the state capi- tol on Monday. August 27, with seven members present. The com mittee discussed several matters relating to the work it should un- dertake and, after discussion of the value of meetings as compared with a direct personal appeal through mails to the leaders of thought and action among the foreign born, voted to recom- mend to the council that d large number of circulate letters be pre- pared and mailed, together with appropriate bulletins of informa- tion and appeals for cooperation to the most prominent representa- tives of each foreign group in the various centers of foreign popu- lation in the state. Stanley H. I1olncs chairman of the commit tee presented this recommenda- tion at the meeting of the council on August 29, and the course de- cided upon by the Committee on Foreign Born Population was approved.
 Tie committee also voted that the chairmen take steps to secure from the various town committees the names of aliens to whom liter ature should be sent, and from exemption boards in the variou districts. lists of exempted aliens.
 At this weeks meeting of the council, Chairman Holmes sub nitted draft of a letter to be sent to town committee chair men seeking a list of persons of foreign birth to whom letters and circulars shall be sent, and 1t was approved by the council
