If the Y. M. c. A. had furnished half as many free smokes as the K. of C., the war would have been won months quicker and the Y could have passed the hat and collected a million dollars from veterans alone, not to mention the good will developed.

W. 0. A., Travellers Aid, and Jew- ish Welfare Board as beneficiaries under this pool system of collect. ing funds supposedly for service folk. Noteworthy for its absence on the list is the Knights of Co., lumbus, the one and only organi- zation that won universal ap- proval from combat troops in the First World War.
 For the uninformed, this setup is co-ordinated by A national field uplifters acting under gov- ernment sponsorship and draw ing healthy pay. cheeks and ex- pense vouchers from the Social Security layout. Many of these co-ordinat0rs actually do not know whom they are working for. Their delivery on the lecture plat form reminds us of a country auc- tloneer who has 8 rather close. listed following and not too much to sell. One critic thinks this group is an~overfiOw from W.P.A.; he claims they bear the stamp and display the same character istics. Local enthusiasts are O9 a quite different type. They are sincere and efficient In their ap- preach. They've sold the idea right down the line, and we hope they will not be disappointed.
 When the first draftees went to camp, we read glowing accounts of the manner in which recreation for the troops would be provided by the government.

Fiarford, June 2i.-Somethipg that should bring 6 gleam of pleas ure to the eyes of Connecticut ere blowers, whose office forces may be begged down by defense work and summer vacations, Is the statement made last night by State Labor Commissioner Cornelius J. Danaher that they will be spared the prepar- ation of about 550000 individual wage reports normally filed with the State Unemployment Department In July.
 Under the provisions of the new Unemployment Compensation Law, MT. Danaher pointed out, wage re- ports are now to be filed on an ari- iiual basis in January instead Of each quarter as formerly, thus elim- mating reports usually falling due in July.
 statisticians of the labor depart ment estimate that during the course of one year employers will be spared filling out more than one million six hundred and fifty thou. sand forms, by reason of this new law.
