The newly formed Veterans Council of waterbury, which em-
 braces in it's membership the lead Ing ex-service mems organizations
 of this city, has won it's first ob-
 fcctive. The officers of the organ
 ization have been assured by
 Mayor Frank Hayes that police sprotection ,sill be available in the
 future to prevent radical speakers from using the encircling walls at the base of the Soldiers Monument
 as a rostrum. As matter of fact sfhe monument will not serve In
 the future as a speaking place for .any purpose. Permission for pub Sic meetings will be granted by the .police under the usual restrictions. .Public gatherings may be held on lthe west end of the green. but neither speakers or spectators will be permitted to desecrate the me- ,fnoriAI to veterans by climbing onto sfhe monument itself or using the smound as point of vantage.
 ~ One of the first resolutions adopt sed by the Veterans Council was a tprotest against the practice of icommunists assembling at the imonument and using it's base as a sspeakers platform to give utter lance to remarks that are not con- sktructiyc to the peace or happiness spf the community. The protest was

New York, March 21-More than 25O,OOO members of the YWCA in
 all parts of the country, many of whom are business girls, will join l in n nationwide observance on March 28, to commemorate the six tieth anniversary of the invention of the typewriter and the entrance
 of women into the modern business
 world. national headquarters of the
 association announced to-day.
 The anniversary of the writing machine" which coincides this year with the association's annual ob- servance to consider the world as a community, will be observed in more than 500 cities and towns where the Y. w. c. A. business
 groups will be holding dinners and
 meetings that night. Special pro-
 grams have been arranged in many
 cities and in Milwaukee, Mrs
 Charles l.. Fortier, daughter of the
 inventor of the typewriter and the
 first woman typist in the world will
 be guest of honor.
 The commemoration will be brought to climax with a nation wide radio program to be broad
 cast over the Columbia Broadcast ing systems network at 10:30 D.
 m., EST. Miss Amelia Earhart, Mrs
 Curtiss Dali and Mrs Robert E. Speer. honorary president of the YWCA will be the principal speak CTS. Mrs Fortier will also take part in the program and send her greet ings to the business girls of Amer ica.
 During the week of the celebra- tion, James H. Rand, Jr, will take the eight millionth typewriter off
 the production line at the Reming- ton Rand factory at Ilion, N. r., where the first models were manu-
 factured in 1873.
 "The perfection of the writing
 machine" Mrs Speer said in an- nouncing the observance, marked the beginning of an industry that has changed the lives and outlook of women as much as any other
 single influence in the past century.
 As the first organization to recog- nize its value to self-supporting woman and to organize typewriting classes for girls, the YWCA is the logical organization to mark this anniversary.
 "Less than one percent of the women employed in the country" according to Mrs Speer were
 clerks, stenographers and saleswo- en at the time the contract was
 signed between Christopher Latham Sholes, inventor of the typewriter
 and the Remington Arms company
 to begin the commercial manufac- ture of the machine.
 "In 1880, there were more than ten million women and girls, ap- proximately one fourth of the en- tire working population of the

FOUR STATES IN PATH OF RAGING
 OHIO RIVER
More Homes Swept Away, Families in Refuge Camps and the Dead Number Seven

Cincinnati, March 21. (UP)- River front sections of four states struggled with the iood-maddened ohio river to-day as the raging flood crest swept away more homes, drove additional families to refugee camps and added immeasurably to property damage already past the $1, 900. 900 mark.
 More than a score of communi- ties in West Virginia, Ohio, In- diana, and Kentucky. including Cincinnati, reported flood waters in business or residential streets, but no accurate reports were obtain able from rural settlements and districts where damage to high ways and rich, river-bottom farm lands was heavy.
 The crest of the flood, cutting along the sharply curving Ohio banks, was expected to reach here tonight. The river was expected to mount to GA feet, flooding addi- tional streets. Last night it had reached 62.5 feet, causing officials to abandon the municipal airport and to make plans to care for ad- ditional homeless.
 Continued rains yesterday added to the flood, and a sudden drop in temperature last night increased the suffering of homeless. In doz- ems of Ohio, Kentucky, and In- diana communities not yet reached by the floods crest, volunteers stood guard over protective dykes.
 No additional deaths were re- ported, the toll standing at seven.
 Relief workers, fighting to care for refugees. estimated that more than 5000 families were homeless in West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky. Cities and towns which suffered most were Cincin- nati, Ironton, Manchester, Galli- polls, Marietta, and Pike county communities in Ohio and Bellevue, Newport, Covington and other Kentucky communities. The Ken lucky national guard sent field kitchens, tents, and blankets into the Covington Newport river stretch.
 In Indianaia, Madison, New AL bany, Aurora, Jeffersonvill, and smaller river towns were flooded.
 In Cincinnati, warehouses and lodge halls were turned over to the homeless and food was being dis tributed from central relief sta- tions.

country employed, and of this num- Der more than 775.000 were work ing as typists and stenographers alone. Hundreds of thousands of other women use the typewriter in their work and many other thous- ands are at work on the office ma chimes and other appliances which followed the typewriter's perfec- ton. The modern mass production and mass distribution of the pres ent day would have been impos- sible without the invention of this machine and the skilled operators.
 Because of the YWCA's interest in working women and because 1t numbers among its members more typists and business girls than any other single organization in the country, it is particularly appro- priate that we should lead in the observance"

COMEDY E. GIVEN AT DOUGLAS ! IS
 SMASHING HIT
Juniors Present Play to Pleased Audience-Is
 on Again Tonight

With exclamationS on every side, "the best high school play I have ever seen," the Junior comedy, "Sweethearts Forever" given in the school auditorium last night, was smashing hit. The audience was treated to two and one half hours of the heartiest laughter and keenest wit wit while following an appealing love story.
 Lloyd Guerin as Archibald Crow ley achieved laugh 8 minute in his lines and action. His every ap- pearance, his every speech, was the signal for fresh bursts of merri- ment. Glenn Edwards in the role of Percy Snodgrass, the small town dandy portrayed this character realistically.
 However, as someone remarked, "every one of the ten actors starred.' All were excellently drawn and depicted as delightful lot of people as you wish to meet across the footlights.
 The curtain rises on the third and last performance this evening at 745 o'clock.
