The male workers have been against it; the industrial managers have been against it. But Miss An- derson declares that an almost overnight change has taken place in the attitude of management and attributes it to four things: CD the backlog of unemployed men is rapidly shrinking; t2) the draft is taking considerable toll from the labor force; (3) industrial expan- sion is still on steep upgrade, with the peak far ahead; t4 the unlimited emergency" has widened our defense horizons.
 She points to Massachusetts, Con- necticut and Maryland, and in scattered sections, New York, New Jersey and California, as states which already are beginning to recognize this changed attitude and swing into programs for training women for production of aircraft, guns, powder, tanks, machine tools and other war materials.
 There is very small amount of within industry Apprenticeship training of women so far. The two agencies doing most of the train ing are the National Youth Admin istration and the vocational diyis- ion of the Office of Education.
 It's only start, but it is that, and the labor ladies here certain ly have determined glint in their eyes.

 Miss Mary Anderson, director of the women's bureau, who herself had Is years as machine oper- ,tor before she came to her pres ent job, calls this lack of trained women the Achilles heel of the labor supply
 Although there is nothing offi- cial on it, it doesn't take half an eye to see that there are compara- lively few women in the war ma terials industry at present = just about enough to give the women's bureau basis for argument that 1t could be developed on a grand scale.

MERGER PETITION
 BEING CONSIDERED
Danbury, Bethel Light Co. May Take Over LitCh=
 field Plant
Special to The Democrat)


 State Capitol, Hartford, Aug. Is A request by the Danbury and Bethel Gas & Electric Light Go. to purchase the Litchfield Electric Light & Power Co. is under con- sideration by the Public Utilities Commission. The Danbury firm is a subsidiary of the giant Cities Service Go.
 It is known that negotiations be- tween the Danbury and Litchfieid firms have been underway. The Danbury utility is capitalized at $1,700,00O, and the Litchfield com pany at $750,000. The price men, toned in connection with the pro- posed transaction is in the neigh borhood of $1,000,000. D
 The Cities Service O., it is urf- derstood, is seeking mergers of companies in districts where it has holdings. Its plan is to group its utility intreestS by regions, and to place them under regional corpora tions, with stock in such corpora tions to be offered to owners of preferred Cities Service stocks for their holdings.
 The Public Utilities Commission has thus far withheld any approval of the transaction, apparently wish ing to make sure that its comple- tion would not mean higher DOW CT costs for customers of either the Danbury-B Bethel or Litchfield util- ity firms.
 The Litchfield Electric Light & Power Co. is owned by private in- terestS, 8 principal stockholder be- ing the Woodruff estate.

STREET RALLY
 PLANNED HERE
World War Hero to Be Speaker Tomorrow Night
 at Soldiers Monument

The Soldiers monument near St. Johns church will be the scene Saturday evening at 2 D. m. of an anti war rally under the auspices of the nationwide America First Committee. The speakers will come here from Boston and will go on to New York City from here. They have toured the United States and will go on to New York City from here. They have toured the United States and have made very favor able impressions everywhere. A local committee headed by John Festa will meet the speakers at 5:3O o'clock in the Elton Hotel.
 All of the Speakres are college graduates and one is 8 World War hero, Captain George Smith, who was decorated for bravery during the last war.
 Captain Smith is one of New York City's champions for peace. Captain Smith saw war in its full horror and hates war. It was dur ing the last war that he gazed down upon the dead faces of his former buddies and vowed then that he would do all in his humble power to prevent American men from be- ing engulfed in another such hell. He is keeping that VOW that he made 24 years ago. He intends to keep it as long as it is possible.
 George McCook, another of the speakers, is a graduate of Ford ham College and served on the college debating team there for some time. Since his graduation he has become recognized as one of the finest youthful orators in the United States. MT. McCook is national secretary of the Garnet Fraternity.
 Frances Zimmer, history teacher in the public schools of New York will be the third speaker. Miss zim- mer is a hard hitting speaker and has held public debates with many of the interventionists. On every such occasion she has won the debates. She is now attempting to arrange a debate with Dorothy Thompson, the columnist.
 Robert Reilly, chairman of the INdU1O41dl fa1uC1S6 r1ISU OpSdhclS Bureau, will have charge of the speakers. MT. Reilly, who has trav- eled extensively all over Europe, will also speak. MT. Reilly was in Po- land when that country was at- tackled by Germany, was in Belgium and saw the war there. Studied in Germany and saw with his own eyes the fear, hate and suspicion that was spread by the Hitler re- gime in it's attempt to work the people of Germany up to a war pitch. Says MT. Reilly, "It is ex- actly the same kind of propaganda that is being fed the American people today.
 A large turnout here in Water bury will hear the speakers who will start speaking at 2 p. m. in front of the Soldiers monument across from the Y. M. c. A. and St. Johns church. Everyone is welcome, there is no charge, and there will be no collection of any kind.

Another Border Line Case Indicated By
 Official Comments
Driver Accused of CarIessness in Operation of Car Causing Death of Pedestrian on
 South Main Street a

John Banslaben, of 214 South Leonard street, is exonerated from all criminal cuIpability in connec- ton with an automobile accident on June 19 which resulted In the death of John Gwizd six days later in finding by Deputy Coroner Miles F. McNiff, Jr., today.
 Following an inquest, Coroner McNiff finds the Banslaben was guilty of several acts of negligence. none of which amounted to gross or criminal proportions.
 According to the finding, Gw1zd left his home, 937 South Main street, shortly after g p. m. daylight saving time on June 19, to cross the street and make a purchase at one of the neighborhood stores. While crossing, he was struck by a car driven by Banslaben, and suffered ecchymosis about the right eye, con tusions of the brain with Subarach- noid hemorrnage and general oede- ma of the brain. He died at St. Mary,s hospital June 25.
 Deputy Coroner McNiff finds that Banslaben was driving north on South Main street at about 30 miles an hour, and struck Gwizd at 8 point in the street well illuminated by 8 nearby light. The car con- tinued GA feet after the accident, coming to stop on the left side of the road. Absence of tire marks indicates that the brakes were not applied sufficiently to lock any of the wheels, though subsequent in- vestigation revealed that it was pos sible to lock the wheels, by depres- sing the brake pedal to the floor.
 According to the finding, the statements made at the inquest by Banslaben and his wife and son, who were occupants of the car, are conflicting land seem to be de- signed for the protection of the driver rather than strict adher- ence to facts within the knowledge of the witnesses.
 The deputy coroner finds that the roadway for some distance south of the point where the accident oc- cured gave clear vision of the AA6AWnJB WAAAS4A WdO D1Odu dlAO WC11- lighted at that point. The space between two parked cars from which Gwi7d emerged was also am- pie to give vision to Banslaben for some distance. Banslaben, accord ing to the finding, failed to keep a proper lookout for such a pedes- trian and failed to apply his brakes faileA tn tlIrn t0 his left in time to &void the collision.
 The fact that the brakes on the car would not lock the wheels un- less fully depressed is cited as a furtner item of negligence on the drivers part.
 These facts, are not, however, found to be criminally negligent within the meaning of the statute relating to automobile homicide, es- pecially in view of the moderate speed of the car.
