CONTRACTORS SET FOR SUMMER WORK
Greatest Construction Ac= tiyity in Five Years
 Seen

Washington, D. C.-Anticipating a summer of the most intensive construction activity in five years, the governing and advisory boards of the Associated General Contrac- tors of America will hold their an- nual spring meeting here, May 9 and 3, to lay plans for the expe- ditious handling of their industry's part in the presidents $4,380, 0,000,- 900 work relief program.
 Representative contractors from the building, highway and heavy construction and railroad divisions of the industry will participate in the meeting, which will give de- tailed attention to the question of facilitating contract methods in each of the various construction fields included in the Emergenoy 7 Relief Appropriation Act. Nick r. Helmers, of St Paul, president of the association, will preside.
 Contractors believe that a major portion of the construction phases of the program will be executed under contract in view of the pro- vision in the measure that full ad- vantage shall be taken of the fa- cilities of private enterprise in the carrying out of the work. The board will exert every effort to see that this is done.
 B. J. Harding, managing direc- tor of the contractors association in announcing the call for the gov. erning and advisory boards meet ing, expressed the belief that un- der the impetus of the work relief measure the coming summer will witness banner season in all lines of construction. He pointed out that the fund, as earmarked m the. bill, will provide, in itself, a well-rounded volume of building, highway and heavy construction projects. Harding also was opti- mistic as to the prospects of re- vival in private residential con- struction, and declared that the board would give special attention to the small home builder at its May meeting.
 The meeting will follow immedi- ately upon the conclusion here of the twenty-third annual meeting of the United States Chamber of Commerce, which will be attended by many of the contractors in- cluding their past-president, A. F. Greensfelder, of st Louis, who is Q director of the construction and civic development department of the Chamber and a member of Secretary of Commerce Roper's business advisory and planning council.

plane factories are working at fever heat, and that the great in- dustrial plants, capable of turning out rifles, cannon, machine guns and tanks, are busy night and day.
 A Polish paper has charged that on her eastern frontier Germany is erecting defensive works and preparing other military works. To conscript an army of 500,000 will also entail big expense. All in all, Germany is probably spending more on war purposes than any country in Europe. The Germans claim the Russians are doing 70. That was the whole theme of the stump speeches Hitler delivered to Sir John Simon when the British foreign minister visited him io Berlin in the latter part of March to explore the path to peace.

Three hundred years ago this month Connecticut was nothing much Rut wilderness inhabited by Indian tribes, Lots of oaks and elms and such No imposing mansions of colonial design, These followed little later, No buildings tall but just rude shacks For the pioneer Connecticut stater- No department stores nor amusement parks No moving picture houses, No baseball teams and no golf links And alas, no Mickey Mouses- There were no cities nor railroad trains, Automobiles were not then seen, And right here where Waterbury stands There wasn't even the Green.
