@~-AS @SAAA8~ SWI1AIlkuB uOAC and we simply had to go to bat for the kids. The sentiment was with the kids, but the trailer crowd not only didn't appreciate our efforts, but threatened to pin our ears back. They didn't, and now they've moved.
 An inspection of that trailer location today reminds one of the backyard of am Alaskan rOadhOuse after the spring thaw. Tin cans, fruit refuse, fish bones, and other debris are filtered over the laH1d- scape. Sanitation was one thing these people did not observe or care about. Not since the slaugh- terhOuse closed on Flood Bridge Road has there been anything to compare with this mess i'm the town of South Britain. If 8 wood chopper tried tO live under such lax sanitary conditions, we would run him out of town and fVln1i- gate the woods.
 
 It isn't diplomatic to say, T Told You So," but if this town ever needed lesson in the regulation of transients, they've had 1t now. Let's make an effort to avoid any, thing like this in the future. Let's nave the health officer look over the next trailer camp site that springs up in our fair community. Let's be sure and not sorry. It's easier to avoid nuisance than to clean up one.
 Please don't: write up for cleo trio eelS because we have none on aand and, under the o. F. M. reg Hlations, we cannot get supply. That electric eel that Charley -the- Fisherman is training came all the way from Australia, under the Lezse-Lend act. We understand &lha8 1t cost the government four sanks and q P-40 pursuit ship. Anyway, that eel isn't for sale and Yc have no assurance of any more shipments.
 The current issue Of the c. M. P. A. bulletin is packed with pie tures of milk advertising. On the cover, a soldier is griIaning over g glass of milk while 8 workman, also standing in front of a flag, is holding 8 bottle of milk. There's a lot of sense in that National Nutrition For Defense milk adver- Using, but that cut of 8 soldier drinking milk should be labeled "On Leave"
 MiIk doesn't appear in any field CT garrison ration we've ever sEOmaehed, except in cans. The canned milk is dumped into cof- fee and, if the cook hasn't drunk up alI the lemon extract, Is some times used in rice pudding. Milk should be fed to soldiers, of course, and maybe in. the new sOciaIized army, it is. But t wasn't in our term of service, not by . jugful.
 
 Sometimes we captured a COW and managed to keep her long enough to extract a little milk from her for the recruits, but she usually turned up sizzling over an open fire about ten minutes after her last below. We had a lot of trouble at La Machines Farm over a calf we roasted. A Frenchman claimed 1t was his calf and the old Man (The ColoneD was sore because we didn't invite him to the barbecue. Charges were filed. The Frenchman went away mumbling. We went along with the war, still looking for cows, cabbages, or any other thing we could eat. No, soldiers don't get much milk.

 After the snake dance, these messengers are released in the de- lsert, supposedly to burrow in the Iground and carry their messages to the gods
 Rain often has fallen within 24 hours after conclusion of the cere- moniai, according to the Indian chieftains.
 The snake dance begins with the priests gathered about a Kiva or underground ceremonial chamber. Dressed in weird costumes and their bodies greased and painted, they stamp on board placed over a hole in. the ground.
 The hole, called a "sipapu,' sym- bolizes the underground passage

The Nursing Committee on De- fenSe of the Connecticut State Nurses Association is sending 1et- ters to inactive and retired regis tered nurses in Connecticut, urg- ing them to take refresher courses in order to be prepared for any emergency and to help now, if pos- sible/ to meet the increased de- mands for registered nurses in this state. The letters are being sent upon the request of the State Council of Defense after a confer ence with representatives of that Council. The names and addresses were secured from the survey of registered nurses in Connecticut which was conducted by the Con- necticut State Nurses Association and the United States Public Health Service.
 The survey was finished June 1, l941, with TIA per cent of the reg istered nurses in Connecticut re- turning the survey forms. This percentage Is 10 per cent higher than the returns for the United States as a whole.
 The following information has been tabulated from the surveys returned and shows the number of registered nurses in each county who are employed, and who are in- active and retired:

 The Indians sent young braves into the desert to gather rattle snakes and other reptiles for the ceremonies, performed for cen- turies before Columbus discovered the New World.
 Tn the ffenzied climax to the ceremonies, the Indians dance wildly about with the snakes in their mouths and entwined about their limbs and bodies. The rep tiles sometimes sink their fangs into the dancer.
 The snake dance is known to white men as a prayer for rain. But 1t is also a prayer to the gods of the underground waters for the well-being of the Hopi people dur ing another year.

 Refresher Courses
 Refresher courses have, already been given in ten of our Connecti- cut schools of nursing but more courses are needed. According to the returns of a queStionnaire sent out recently by the Connecticut State Nurses Association, several of our schools of nursing have ap- piled to the United States Public Health Service for funds from the 4l 100000 which the federal gov- ernment has appropriated for edu- cation of student nurses, and for refresher courses and post-grad- uate courses for registered nurses. Allotments of federal funds will be made early in September, after a careful evaluation of the applica- ton.
 Fourteen schools of nursing have expressed their willingness to give refresher courses if nurses wish them. As mentioned in a recent radio broadcast under the State Council of Defense, refresher cours- es are designed to give registered nurses an opportunity to brush up on what they learned in the nurs- ing schools and to bring nurses up- to-date on newer methods in nurs-

In D. T.. Gas Tax for
Highway Program
Wender First Witness
As Whitehurst Plan
Hearings Open

Opposition of the Federation Of
Citizens Associations to any in
crease in the gasoline tax to finance
the far-reaching highway construc-
ton and safety program for the
District of Columbia was laid before
the District Commissioners today
by Harry S. Wender, federation vice
president, as the Commissioners
opened hearings on the s44 800, 900
plan.
Mr.. Wender. however. told the
Commissioners that he differed per-
sonally with the position of the
federation and favored the prin-
ciple of an increase in the gasoline
tax by l cent gallon.
The highway plan, reported to the
Commissioners by Capt. H c. White
hurst. director of highways, calls for
comprehensive eieht-year con-
struction program to be financed
principally by 2-cent increase in
the gasoline tax here, raising It from
the present 2 cents a gallon to 1
cents gallon.
The board room of the District
Building was crowded as the hear
ing opened with Commissioner
Young presiding The new Engineer
Commissioner, Brig. Gen. Charles
w. Kutz, who was sworn in this
morning, participated in his first
hearing. Other district officials
present included Capt. Whitehurst
and Maj. Baverly c. Snow, assistant
engineer commissioner.
Divergence of opinion over the
Whitehurst program was apparent
as the hearings opened Several
representatives of various interested
agencies and citizens associations
were listed to be heard.
Washington l. Cleveland, man
aeer OF the District division of the
American Automobile Association,
and L. A. Carruthers, chairman OF
its Taxation Committee. were pre-
pared to indorse the Whitehurst
plan generally, but TO testify that
any contemplated gasoline tax in
crease be no more than cent a
gallon.
On the other hand, George Z.
Keneipp, secretary OF the Advisory
Board of the Keystone Automobile
Club, was ready to express his Or
ganization's opposition to any in
crease in the local gasoline tax"
The Washington Building Con-
gress sent to the hearing Charles
T. Penn, who was prepared to pre-
sent a letter from the Board of Gov
ernors declaring that the funds
necessary to carry out this eight
year program should be raised by an
increase in the gasoline tax COM
bined with an appropriate Federal
contribution"
