For the sake of the record and inas- much as Armistice Day has just passed by we might mention that 1,014 Connec- ticut soldiers were killed during the World War. They were either In the Army or the Marine Corps. In the latter department there were 15 Connecticut casualties. The state had 53,826 men in service during the war with little more than half of the number seeing service overseas. TAI men were killed In action and 258 died from wounds received in battle. The remaining were missing after combat. Maybe figures like these will have a deadening effect on the youngsters who want to go to war.

knows at all times just how much of the fund is being used to buy or sell foreign exchange. The other two are Secretary Morgen- thau and President Roosevelt, Bell keeps his priceless figures in his head, not trusting them to paper for fear of 0 leak.
 Difficult Position
 As O career man without poli- cal pull, Bells position as Budget director has been no bed of roses particularly since Roosevelt in- augurated his economy program.
 On Bell has fallen the onerous task of yielding the knife on department and bureau ApprO- prlatlons, and their chiefs on occasion have voiced bitter com- plRlnts. Some, charging budget dletAtlOn," have gone over hlS head to the President. But without success; Roosevelt has never failed to back him up.
 More than once the President has welded on even more severe blue-penell than Bell, During preparations of the budget, Bell has ct times been won over by persuasive executive only to be overruled by the President.
 While exercising considerable power over regular appropriations, Bell has remained carefully aloof from the controversies over relief and other emergency expenditures. He follows c strictly hands-off course on questions of policy-an- other departure from the practice of his predecessors.
 Reserve Board Member
 In inner Administration circles, Bell is being strongly urged for one of the two vacancies on the Federal Reserve Board, preferably the appointment with Q lS-year term.
 Tom K. Smith, president of The BOatmen's National Bank of st. Louis, and formerly special adviser of the Treasury, has warmly endorsed him. Sec- rctary Morgcnthnu, who regards Bell highly and leans on him heavily, has expressed no opinion because hc docs not want Co lose him # hc can help lt. However, he has told friends he would not lnterp0sc objections if the President asked his advice.
 Bell, questioned by Q friend whether he would accept on ap. pointment to the Reserve Board, replied smilingly: "Why cross bridges until you come to thefn9 No one hos said anything to me about 1t and as for as know no one will. If and when they do, well, we'll see what we will see."
