Washington, Feb. 26.-(UP)-Vir- tual wartime precautions to pro- tect the Capitol were taken today with assignment of 24-hour guard duty at all entrances.

The midnight to 8 a. m shift was taken over today by members of the Washington Metropolitan police force. Under new regulations, no packages of aIiy description-except those carried by employees or shipped in by nlaila- will be permitted in the building.

sIn effect" said Mir. Lynch, "the City of Waterbury will deny most of MT. Cassidy's allegations. We will. however, admit certain things, namely that MT. Cassidy is g tax payer in Waterbury and thereby e1l- joys the rights of a taxpayer; we will admit Cassidy,s claim that Leavenworth and West Main streets are public highways; we will admit that the city has executed 8 con- tract for the erection and use of the parking meters, but we refuse to admit, and will deny all of the other claims made by MT. Cassidy" i"
 The suit, which will test the le- gality of the parking meters in Wat erbury, has been pending in the Court of Common Pleas since Jan. B.
 At that time, Cassidy, after long threatening to make a case of the matter, filed suit against the city, asking for a temporary injunction (which was not pressed when due for a hearing Jan. 3D, a permanent 1nJu1lCUlOI1, dIlQ O<1llldSCO VI spo,VSV'
 Cassidy, who owns property at Leavenworth and West Main streets, charges that the city has no legal authority to erect meters in front of his property for financial gain. If, said he, the meters were erected as a business proposition, then he was entitled, as taxpayer, to share in the profits.
 The case is due for trial some time next month. At the time the temporary injunction hearing was scheduled before Common Pleas Judge John F. McDonough, former States Atty. Lawrence L. Lewis, of Bronson, Lewis, Bronson & Upson, through whom Cassidy will bring the action, stated that the tempor- ary injunction would not be sought at that time, but that all phases of the suit would be tried at the actual trial,

Long Range Dental
 Care Plan Advised
Strong, Healthy Nation To Result From Serious Con
 sideratiOn Of Care Of Teeth, Says Dr.. Erenbach

A long-range plan of dental care starting during the prenatal period and continuing throughout life Is fundamental to the establishment of a strong and health ynation, said Franklin M. Erlenbach, D. M. D., chief of the division of dental hy- giene, in the weekly broadcast of the state department of health. Good dental health cannot be &C., quired on short notice. Continuous attention must be given to provision for adequate amounts of foods daily with enough variety to include all the protective foods needed for building sound teeth. Regular visits to the dentist begun as early as two years of age will help to con- trol defects.
 Present efforts to step up the ef1- ciency of the population for defense through better dental care is evi- dence that remedial care alone does not meet the need for optimum health under ordinary conditions Dr. Erlenbach pointed out. Ninety per cent of the population needs definite dental care. Preliminary reports from draft boards confirm this for males in the 21 to 35 age group. They show that many men are being rejected for service be- cause of defective or deficient teeth The National Youth Administration has initiated a health program fol youths, from IS to 21 years in which dentistry is to play part.
 A strong foundation against den- tai disease established early and maintained throughout life would satisfy present emergency demands for physical fitness and build fol future dental health, pr. Erlenbach emphasized. Preventive care is fal less expensive than remedial ef- fort. It saves many more teeth fol future use. During the relatively short transitional period from so- called "baby" teeth to permanent teeth, important health habits are being formed. Regular dental care is one of these that should be es- tablished then.
 Dental disease is possible in the youngest child with its first teeth to the oldest adult. Dental defects increase with age both in severity and in number of teeth involved Delayed attention to the problem only aggravates it's seriousness. Dr Erlenbach. reported that children ot junior high school age are frequent ly found with teeth that are badly broken down from neglect. Many of these teeth, acting as points o: infection, must be sacrificed. They could have been saved and denta crippling avoided by continuou preventive care.
 Dr. Erlenbach urged the public not to view the need for better dental care as only an emergency problem. Rather, the present situa- ton should occasion serious and honest reflection, with the result that what is being done now will bring benefits later if continued regularly.

NEW EXAMINATION
 NOT NECESSARY

Hartford, Conn. Feb. 26.-(UP)- A decision by Superior Court Judge Ernest A. Inglis today denied the petition of Assistant State Person. nel Director Laurence c. Smith, Canaan, for a temporary injunc- tion restraining state personnel of f1cials from proceeding with a new examination for assistant personnel director.
 Smith was serving provisional appointment, and took the exami- nation for the post recently. The exam was only partially completed when State Personnel Director Will liam H. Donning announced he would call a new examination. The new call was issued after an exam ming committee said results of the first exams, though partially com- pleted, were unsatisfactory.
 Judge Inglis said Smith had the right to insist on completion of the original examination and "can en- force that right, it would seem, by mandamus."

TURKS CHEER
 ANTHONY EDEN
British Foreign Secretary Arrives To Have Confer
 ence About War
BY DANA SCHMIDT limited Press Staff COrreSuOndent)

bt DIANA SChM1D1
 United Press Staff Correspondent
 Ankara, Turkey, Feb. 26.-(UP) Two thousand cheering Turks broke through police lines today to welcome Anthony Eden, British foreign secretary, Gen. Sir John Dill, chief of the Imperial staff, and a big party of aides to the capital to- day for conferences with Turkish leaders on political and military problems.
 The cheering continued while Foreign Minister Sukru Saracoglu and other Turkish and foreign mo- tables were greeting the visitors and thereby mourning displeasure Germans showed openly.
 Eden at once made an appoint ment to visit John Van A. Mac Murray, American minister to Tur- key, early this afternoon.
 The British foreign secretary's welcome was made more enthusi- astic when he greeted Saracoglu and other Turks in Turkish.
 After entering the British army at IS in the last war, and winning the military cross for gallantry in action, he returned to school after the war to specialize in Oriental languages at Oxford.
 Eden and Dill come to Turkey after conferences with British mil- tary leaders at Cairo. Eden also conferred there with Sir Reginald Hoare, British minister recalled from Bucharest when Britain broke relations with Rumania because of the German occupation.
 It was expected that Eden, Dill and their aides would continue to Athens from Ankara to discuss with Greek leaders the implications of the German threat, to the Balkans
 There was every indication here that the visit to Eden, Dill and their aides was welcomed by the Turkish government, which seemed more impressed by the feeling that Britain was behind Turkey than by the evident disapporval of Germans at the visit.

EVENING POST FOR
 ADMINISTRATION
Abandons Policy of Non. Intervention; Is Backing
 American Crusade

Philadelphia, May 2l.--(UP)-The Saturday Evening Post abandoned Its non-intervention policy today and announced It's support of the administration American crusade" against totalitarianiSm. ,N
 Tn an editorial, the magazine said 1t still did not believe in interven- ton, but that the administration had gone too far now to turn back and that 1t Is the reality we accept"
 The time has come for every American to resolve simple ques- ton: That If the country becomes involved In war, "What are you go- ing to do about it2" the magazine said.
 Many keep saying that the time has not come but do they see what the world reads on the Amer ican banner9 The American government has proclaimed that Hitler must be destroyed. It has solemnly pledged itself before the world to employ its total resources to bring that result to pass.
 ITO speak of this aS national de- fense Is absurd. It Is the Aineri- can crusade.
 Everyone must be aware of what 1t will mean to SO on. DO we sec what 1t will mean to 60 back? The peril In that case is no less, may be even greater. In going on we face the possibility of defeat, whether we can imagine 1t or not. But to go back Is to face the possibility of national death.
 "That is the reality as we see 1t; that Is the reality we accept. It was not inevitable, that we admit and argue 1t no more"

Governor Appointed
 Honorary Chairman
States Chief Executive Pays Tribute to Motive nspir ing Campaign to Aid Young Men in Army, Navy

Hartford, Conn, May 2l-Gover- nor Robert A. Hurley today an- nounced that he had accepted Q post as Honorary Chairman of the United Service Organizations for Connecticut and urged the people of the State to support the pro- gram, emphasizing the need of maintain morale as e part of our national defense.
 The chief Executive of the State gave his whole.hearted support to the recently announced U. s. O. program of service to soldiers, sail- ors and defense workers. The U, s O. will soon embark upon e drive to raise $l0,760,000 to finance the operation of more than 300 service clubs near military camps, naval bases and industrial defense cen ters.
 In accepting the post, Governor Hurley said:
 "This campaign ranks in im- portance with every other phase of the National Defense effort In which we are now engaged. It is the only answer to the difficult morale problem created as we daily separate the young people of the country from their homes and their family associations,
 "T'oo often we are apt to place reliance on guns, tanks and am munition. Too often we forget that behind those guns and tanks must stand men-men whose mo- rale and spirit must be high. Through the U. s. O., we can buy insurance, as 1t were, in our youth and we can do our bit to main tain our high standard of na- tional morale"
 Heartily endorsed by religious and welfare leaders throughout the country, as well as by President Roosevelt, Secretary Stimson, Sec- retary Knox and Federal Security Administrator Paul V. McNutt, the U, s. O, program Is intended to supplement the work in the field which is now being done either by the Army and Navy or by local communities.
 The six National Agencies making up the United Service Organiza- tons are, The Young Mems Chris tan Associations, The National Catholic Community Service, The Salvation Army, The Young Wo- mems Christian Association, The Jewish Welfare Board and the Ma. tional Travellers Aid Association.
