NAzI RAIDS FAIL

Letters Received Here Show English People

Indications from England con- tinue that morale among the men, women, and children who form the non-combatant group is excellent and that continued Nazi raids are failing to upset the normal exist ence of families or to excite any demands for peace.

Coast Guard Is
Given Hard Job
Theirs the Task of Keep.
ing Europe's War Away
From u. S. Shores.

WASI1llNH1o 1N. ihS SitSN
States coast guard is grinly tackling
the biggest and most difficult job in
its century and half of existence.
Its land, sea, and air forces have
been expanded into vast "neu-
trality PATROL designed to keep Eu-
ropes war away from Americas
shores.
The nations third fighting serv-
ice" already has started taking over
its part in enforcement of the pro-
claimed 300-mile Atlantic safety belt
around the Americas.
Part of the job is to warn mer.
chant and passenger ships Of lurk-
ing raiders.
Organized in 1890 as a baby pa
troll unit of Is small vessels to sup
press piracy and collect customs
revenues. the coast guard within a
few weeks will be operating for "a
hours day a feet larger than those
of many nations.
Strength Nearly Doubled.
With the addition Of 1000 men or
dered by President Roosevelt. con-
solidation Of the lighthouse service
facilities and personnel Of 5000 I'M
der one command, and immediate
recommissioning Of 60 or more addi-
tional craft, the coastal patrol or
ganization will be operating at q
strength nearly double any it has
known in peacetime.
Officials estimate 1900 men will
be engaged. The fleet Of recommis-
stoned boats will join an already ex-
panding feet Of more than 400 craft,
including "a large cruising cutters
and approximately so smaller cut
tiers.
The coast guards air force now
totals SIS planes, seven Of which
have a 2,000-mile cruising radius,
and are equipped for landing and
aiding distressed persons far at sea.
An unrevealed number Of planes Is
to be added.
Auxiliary shore facilities are to be
enlarged. Radio and telephone COM
munication facilities are already in
process Of expansion. -
The surface feet has been allotted
specific zones in the hundreds Of
thousands of square miles to be pa.
trolled from Canada to the Canal
Zone. Ranging even farther at sea
will be new armada of recommis.
stoned World war destroyers.
New York Waters Vital.
Most vital Of the districts under
coast guard surveillance is an area
of $4,000 square miles around the
harbor of the city Of New York, into
which run the worlds greatest sea-
lanes.
Responsible for supervision Of this
giant task is Capt. R. w. Dempwolf.
head of the New York division.
Over Captain DempwoH. and head
of the entire organization is the
coast guards commandant, Rear
Admiral Russell r. Waesche.
General operations Of the navy's
patrol feet, expected to number
more than 100, will be directed by
Rear Admiral Hayne Ellis, com.
mander Of the Atlantic squadron,
aided by Commander James L. Hol-
loway Jr., his chief Of staff. In
some areas, it will include coast
guard units.
Under certain circumstances, as
suggested by President Roosevelt.
the extraordinary policing surveil.
lance may be extended as far as
1000 miles to sea. along the more
heavily travelled routes used by
liners where submarine activities
are most feared.

Creamery Dates From 1866
A Dane, who travelled in Switzer.
land in 1920, wrote an account of
the practice Of Swiss farmers of
sending their cows to a central or
ganization where most Of the milk
was made into cheese. Each farm
er was paid in due ratio according
to the yield Of his cows. The in.
crease in profit was marked and
the movement spread to France.
The creamery may be said to date
from 1866, when the first distribut-
ing society was founded in Den
mark.
Northern Ireland is to have q
branch of the Women's Land Army
and hundreds of women will be
trained in tractor driving and farm
work generally. ..

Current Political Gossip

Only 8 few more candidates are needed to make the contest for the Democratic Senatorial nomi- nation in the 18th district real free-for-all. Latest to announce his candidacy is William ripper" Conley, who lost the nomination to Senator Edward P. Egan after 8 bitter convention fight two years ago. Senator Egan is a candidate for renomination, and ex-Sena- tor Joseph H. Lawlor has already announced his candidacy.
 MT. Conley said that he has been in the field for the nomination since the date of the last 16th dis trict convention. A primary fight in the district seems inevitable.
 Harold B. Pest, ex-president of the Young Mems Republican club, is accepting 0vertureS toward run- ming for the Republican Senatorial nomination in the 18th district. Trouble in the Young Republican Club in recent months may ham, per his chances.
 Publisher William J. Pape is still being boomed for the Re- publican nomination for the U. s. Senate despite his statement that he is not a candidate. The Bridge port Telegram, urges in lauda- tory editoria to-day that he be designed as the G. O. P. choice.
 New Haven Republicans are talking about Matthew T. Bir- mingham as a candidate for mayor. He is well-known in Waterbury, having come here as a speaker several times in his capacity as ad- vertising manager for Columbia, publication of the Knights of Columbus.
 Fairfield County Democrats are seeking to have Public Works Commissioner Robert A. Hurley make a formal announcement of his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for governor. But Commissioner Hurley continues si- lent.

|ANTI-AIRCRAFT'' UNIT SEEKS MEN.
EnIistments to Be Con- tinued Here for Next
 Three Weeks

The headquarters of Battery E, of the 20Sth coast artillery has been transferred for the next three weeks, during the period when the armory will be closed, to the American Le- zion home at IT Holmes avenue. Lieut.. Grover c. Baldwin, who is in command of the local battery, has designated Lieut.. John J. Egan to act as executive officer while the commander is attending the war games in New York state.
 The recruiting work is still con- tinuing, and it is hoped that the full enrolment of 60 men will be reached by the first of next month, so that federal recognition may be quickly assured.
 Dr. John J. Egan will act as post surgeon for the examination of re- cruits. More than 20 applicants have already placed their names on file, and will be examined as soon as possible by Dr. Egan.
 When organized, the battery will be devoted to anti-airoraft work, and primarily for use in this region, to defend the industrial plants of the valley. Even in the event of a complete mobilization, 1t is thought likely that the members of the local battery would be used for defense in this area, with which they are presumably more familiar than any other.
 The present membership of the battery consists of the following men:
 John J. Donnelly, Edward O. Grant. Arthur J. Hanel, Edward L. Cass, James D. Naismith, Edward s Walescyk, Francis J. Berthiaume Raymond E. Leblanc, Robert J Hosier, Henry P. Doolan, George H Larrow, Raymond J. Beaulieu, Frank w. Marshall, Mortimer c. Vensel Corelius E. Holland, Edward R. Law son, William H. O'Brien, Edmund E Thayer, Francis J. Grove, Charles P.

Waterbury Boys
 Held Under Bonds
Waterbury Man Stripped of Clothes, Robbed, Auto
 Taken When He Gave Trio Lift

Sullivan said GrEmauskas, whom he knew, asked him for ride to Waterbury at the American Brass company picnic at Linden park Sat- urday afternoon. Sullivan gave Cru mauskas and his two companions the ride, he said, and when they got to Waterbury, they suggested a swim at the Hop Brook pond near the New England arch, Sullivan said.
 They went to the arch but none went swimming, Sullivan said. In- stead they took his pants off, robbed him and at first pretended it was a joke but later two held him and in doing so, broke his eyeglass- es, he said.
 Sullivan threw one set of keys to his car into the bushes but a spare set was found and the youths used this to drive off in the car, he told the court. A portable radio in the car is still missing, he said, al- though apparently the money and other things which he alleged were taken, have been recovered.
 Sullivan said he had about three beers at the outing and admitted that the youths had suggested he let them drive because they did not think he was in condition to do SO He denied however that he was drunk.
 Atty. Fred Bauby of Waterbury represented Sloboda, and Atty. Gill represented Fitzgerald. The defense did not offer any testimony and witnesses and did not object to the bind-over.
