ONE DELIVERY 4 DAY
 FROM RETAIL STORES
May Soon Be the. Ruie in All connee-
 ticat Cities.

A maximum of one delivery day from retail stores may, Soon be the rule in all Connectietit cities and towns of more than 2590 population. Plans to this end were set going in Wash
 ington recently at a conference of the ! commercial eeon6my board and the states councils section of the council of national defense with representa- I tives of the state councils of defense
 in states east of the Mississippi. Rep4 Tesehtatives of the western states are ] t6 meet later. Alton T. Miner of New London, the chairman Of the commercial economy division of the committee of1 industrial survey, Connecticut Council of De- fense,, attended the conference and Since his return has been making plans for q radical cdrtaiifnent of deliveries in this state. 5sa.e
 'The campaign for simpler delivery service was started by the national commercial economy board last sum ffier tos conserve labor for war bur poses, Mf. Miner said Sunday. ftThe immediate object was to enable fler- chants who lost deliverymen by the draft to get on without replacing them from the limited labor supplies avail able for farming, munitions making, shipbuildif1g. the: railroads and other vital industries. One delivery a day, curtailmeht of special deliveries and of the return goods and c. o ID. Hrivi- ieges; and in small and medium Sized cities and towns the establishment of co-opefatiye delivery systems, were recommended.
 These recommendations are now in effect, either as a whole or in part, In cities and towns with a total popu- d AZ f lions. Eighty cities have already gone to one delivery day Nearly as many have restricted special deliveries and the return goods and c. O. D. privi- lege. And about ITO towns now have cooperative delivery systems. The savings in labor have been large. The cooperative systems alone have com mo1lly saved 50 to 60 per cent. Great care has been taken not to push the campaign beyond the need
 for saving labor. The board has
 sought to enable merchants to release men only as there was actual demand for them either in the fighting forces or some more needful work Under
 this same policy. the campaign must now be pushed more vigorously. The first draft under the missionaries is expected about February Is. If the merchants are to be ready to give up
 in an orderly way the men they will
 lose at that time, they must begin pre-
 pairing now. and the delivery changes
 are the logical first step.''
 As a preliminary to inaugurating
 this. plan in Connecticut the com
 rnereial economy division of the state
 councils committee on industrial sur
 vey has arranged for a meeting to be
 held at the capitol in this city soon
 to which the following delegates have
 been invited: secretaries of all cham
 bers of commerce and business mems
 associations in the state, the directors
 or the Connecticut Chamber of Com
 rnerce and one merchant and one wo-
 man delegate appointed by each cham
 ber Plans win be discussed in regard to Connecticut's part in the move
 ment and recommendations will prob
 ably be made.
