NEW DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDED FOR
 DEFENSE COUNCIL
Committee on AmeriCanizatiOn With Trained Force Is Lat
 est Activity Suggested.

A new department of the activities of the Connecticut State Council of Defense is anticipated in the recon mendatiOns for the organization of a Committee on AmericanizatiOn. The report upon which the recommends tiOns were made concluded with the statement that the time has come for wise, strong and immediate action to preserve American institutions and ideals.
 The organization advised is a com mittee of nine members with a state director, two field agents and one clerk comprising the paid force: It is assumed that the offices would be To- cated in the state capitol.
 The fundamentally necessary things in this proposed department are these |:
 1. There has long been a need for such wO:S to be done.
 2. The war conditions have empha- sized the need at this time.
 8. The need will continue after the war Is over.
 f. The work will never be done even half we'll until a bureau is provided to carry it on.
 5. The need is such that any reason able expenditure is amply justified.
 6. To assure the success of such a bureau the right man must be secured as a director and given ample support and a reasonable free hand to work out solution for this great problem of AmericaniZatiOn.

CAN'T GET ALONG TOGETHER
Women Won't Work for Women When They Can Help 1t, AIways Pre.
 ferrinq Men Bosses.

A "mere man," writing in WOman'S Home Companion, makes this com ment on women in business.
 "AnOther reason have noted why women don't appropriate the big jobs is that most members of their own sex-tO say nothing of the members of Ours-wOuld rather work for a man than a woman. The most successful woman l know is the head of a big department in a very big business. She knows that her feminine instinct is worth thousands to that business. Yet she is glad that the president of the business is q man; she wouldn't take the presidents job if she could get it i; and no matter how much she believes in her own instinct, she recognizes that there is an element of judgment in the man that, working with her in stinct, produces perfect combination.
 "I hired stenographer once, for in- stance, and assigned her to a woman. At noon of the first day she went out to lunch and did not come back. I found a laconic note on her desk. It read: I won't take dictation from a wOman.' Any man or any woman in business, can give similar testimony. Women would rather work for men than work for wOmen.'

STATES TWO FRENCH KINGS
Both Louis XIV and XIV Ruled Over Domain That Included Great
 Western Commonwealth.

There were but two French kings who ever ruled over Missouri, observes the Kansas City Star. The first of these was Louis XIV, for whom La Salle took possession of the Missis' sippi river and of all the country drained by its tributaries. La Salle named the country Louisiana in honor of his king. For governmental pur- poses the whole of Louisiana was at- tached to new France and FrOntenac became the first governor, ruling over the largest domain ever under the sway of one man on this continent. France owned the central part of the continent from the Gulf to the polar seas. Thus FrOntenac became the first governor of the region that is now Missouri.
 But 1t was in the reign of Louis XIV, who succeeded Louis XIV, that Mis- sOuri received from France the first vtvifying touches of civilization. U1- der this reign the city of St. Louis was founded and was named, not in honor of Louis XIV, who was no saint, but in honor of Louis TX, who then had been dead 800 years, and who was the most saintly king France ever had.
 New Orleans was founded, too, dur ing the reign of Louis XIV, and was named for the duke of Orleans, re- gent for the young king, who was crowned at five years old.

HOUSEWIVES '
 SIGN CANNING FOOD PLEDGES
State Accepts Quota of Five
 Million Quarts.
COUNTY FARM BUREAUS
 CARRY ON ENROLMENT
ouOtaS Assigned by countlss--EnrolI. ment of Every Woman Sought and Possibility of Their Adding a Few Quarts to Their Pledge Expected to Bring Grand Total Up to Quota.

Connecticut has accepted a t0tHl 0f 5,OO0yOO0 quarts of fruits and vcgctn' bles to be canned during the coming season, and at the present tmn tho housewives of the state arc pledgIng themselves to meet this quota with the aid of the boys and girls of the Junior Food Army, who expect to cHn u mil. lion quarts themselves. Tho setting of this quota In quarts gives opportunity for the use of two methods to meet lt, One way is to make sure that every woman in the state has enrolled in 0r' der that all fruit and vegetables CHns ned may appear In the grand total for the state. The other possibility ls for the women of the state to add n few extra quarts to their pledge, thus add ing to the total and at the same time insuring that they will have sufficient home canned goods for all contingen- cieS.
 According to information given out by Miss Emily Whitney, chairman of the Home Canning Department of the Committee of Food Supply of the Con necticut State Council of Defense, the Government has reQuisitiOned co per cent. of the factory canned goods of the country, leaving S5 per cent. to be used by people employed in factory work and the like and who cOnse- thnV cnlN This means that most families must expect to supply their own canned fruits and vegetables for the winter.
 Quotas have been set by counties. New Haven heads the list, with l ,34O,- 900 quarts of fruits and vegetables as their quota. Fairfield and Hartford Counties come next, with 1,172,50O quarts each. The quotas set for the other counties are as follows: New London, 4O2,OOO; Litchfield, 335, 1000 i; Wmdham 234, 800; Middlesex, 234, 300 :: Holland, 134,OOO.
 The enrolment has been planned and is being carried out through the COun- ty Farm Bureau organization, and any woman not yet enrolled may have her name put on the list by seeing a mem- Der of the Farm Bureau staff.
 Last year, due to the great enthusi- asm for canning, Connecticut stored away for winter use more food than ever before in its history. It had One- quarter of the total number of cOmmu- nifty canning plants in the United States and led all the states in the amount of products conserved in these plants. Whether or not this record will be equaled or surpassed this year will depend upon the organization which is developed during the coming few weeks. The committee on canning Is working with the Connecticut Agri- cultural College and the County Farm Bureaus in order to make sure that every community has the latest infOr- nation concerning this work. Any one who wishes directions for either can ming or drying may obtain them from the County Farm Bureaus, the college or the Food Committee.

GOVERNMENT
 WILL NOT TAKE
 HOME PRODUCTS
Foolish RumOr of ConfisCation
 of Canned Foods Denied.

People who are concerned lest the Government confiscates home canned and dried fruits and vegetables should have their fears immediately set at rest by statement issued by NJ. Es- tella Sprague, Home Economics Direc- tor for Connecticut, from the head quarters of the Committee of Food Supply, Connecticut State Council of Defense. Miss Sprague, after thorough investigation, declares there is abso- lutely no basis for fears of cOnfisca- ton and that no food will be taken, The Government does expect to take over a large per cent. of the factory canned product for war uses, a fact which emphasizes the necessity for putting up enough fruits and vegeta- bles in the home to meet all the re- quirements of the family for the com Ing year.
 Another rumOr current last year and which is being heard from again in some sections of the state to the ef- feet that food canned by the cold pack method is dangerous is also declared by Miss Sprague to be absolutely with out foundation. The cold pack method of canning has been thoroughly Csted and is absolutely safe. Government reports of last years work concerning COnnecticut's canning work show prac- tically no spOilage where directions were followed.
