Defense Program Plan
Has Aided Waterbury
Claims of Morning Republican Are Scoffed at By
Those Who Know-Three Local Factories
Can Attest to Benefits to City

Claims of the Waterbury Republic
can that the national defense pro-
gram has as yet brought no appre-
ciable benefits to local industry were
scoffed at by informed business
quarters today. High sources agreed
that the full effects of the defense
program have not yet been felt To-
cally but declared that government
orders have helped immeasurably in
recent months. Even further employ
ment and production gains in Water
bury when the program is in full
swing are being confidently predicted
Factories Get Contracts
It was pointed out that just three
local factories, the Scovill Mfg. Co.,
American Brass Co.. and Chase Brass
and Copper Co.. have received at
least several million dollars worth
of defense orders In the past two
months. Other plants have received
smaller orders, and at least one
plant, the Waterbury Tool Co.. is de-
voting virtually all its production eff
forts to manufacturing equipment
for the nations armed forces.
Employment here has gained
steadily this summer, thanks IN large
part to national defense orders. The
last available Chamber of Commerce
survey, for June, showed an en-
ployment gain of 500 persons in that
month. There were 35,349 persons at
work. an increase of 3.l84 over June
Of 1889.

(Unied Press War EXPERT

(Undated)-Yesterday's attack by
German airmen and armed launch
es against British coastal convoy
represents a secondary phase in the
battle of Britain. 1t may be called
the battle of the channel, and like
previous channel offensives by Ger
man aviators, the purpose is to dis
organize British coastal communica-
tons centering about London.
The attacked convoy was not
bringing supplies from overseas, be-
cause channel ports are no longer
used as import terminals. The YES
sells were distributing goods from
other British ports. In an emer-
gency this freight could be carried
by rail and motor trucks, but to do
so would place a strain on the
British land transport system. So,
the rick has been undertaken for
some time of utilizing coastwise
shipping, despite the dangerous
proximity Of German bases along
the French coast.
Make Channel Unsafe
The Germans are hoping to make
the channel so unsafe for coastal
transport that domestic distribution
methods will have to be revised. The
channel offensive has no bearing on
the ability Of Great Britain to keep
open her trans-ocean lanes for her
food ships. This Is different prob
lem facing the German strategy OF
blockade.
Yesterdays encounter was the
second recent German offensive
against channel conveys. The first
found the British unprepared with
sufficient airplanes for counterat-
lacking. and the German success
was proportionately greater. The
