0 D. CAMPBELL GIVES
RESUME OF TRIP TO ENGLAND
States British Grateful
For Aid Being Given
By America

Thomas D. Campbell who re-
turned recently from a trip to
England gave a review of his
experiences to the board of di-
rectors of the Big Horn County
Chamber of Commerce at their
regular meeting Monday night
at the Savoy cafe.
Mr. Campbell made the trip
to London by air. He left New
York for Lisbon, Portugal via
Bermuda. The flight lasted but
80 hours. He also flew from
Lisbon to London.
Among the outstanding infor-
nation given by the speaker
was the fact that only five per
cent of the German bombs that
fell on England were on indus
tries vital to the British war
cause. Most of the bombs dam
aged tenements, schools, chur-
ches and business districts of
cities. Many explosives were
dumped on open fields by the
German pilots in order to ligh-
ten their loads and escape the
fury of the British Spitfires, he
added.
Mr.. Campbell stated that Win
ston Churchill told him that
had Hitler not been so vain in
wanting to sign the treaty with
the French in the historic rail-
road car in the forest of the
Compiegne, scene of the World
War I treaty, he could probab-
ly invaded England Immediate
ly after the fall of France. At
that time England'S defense was
at it lowest mark, it was stated.
The British considered that it
was an act of Providence. -.
Invasion of England does not
seem possible now, MI. Camp
Ebell said. The British have di-
vided their country into re-
| gions with each area comman-
ded by one man who would d.
rect defense activities in case
Ian invasion was attempted by
the Germans. England Is brist-
ling with, guns for defense, M
added.
The British air force is vastly
superior to the Germans dur
ing the daylight hours, but
night bombings make it diff
cult for the Raj. to spot the
raiders and bring them down.
Anti-aircraft fire is very inef-
fective, as the height of the
bombers cannot be accurately
estimated, Mr.. Campbell said.
He added that the English
feel very grateful to America
for the aid they are receiving
from this country. This graft
tude was expressed by such
widely divergent personalities as
Prime Minister winston Chur-
chill and the chambermaid In
MI. Campbell's hotel.
Robert Yellowtail, superinten-
dent of the Crow Indian reser-
walton, was also a guest OF the
club and spoke briefly. He com
mented on the oil prospects for
this area and on the road situa-
| ton here,

Special Awards. Election
OF Officers At Next
Meeting. June 9

Captain E. S. Luce, custodian
of the Custer Battlefield Ma
tional cemetery, was the speak
er at the last meeting of the
Hardin Lions club, held in the
banquet room of the Masonic
temple.
He was introduced by Lion
JenS Kalberg, who had charge
of the program. Captain Luce
suggested that the people of the
Hardin community should publi-
CHE the Custer battlefield and
its historic surrounding, and
that a permanent marker should
be placed where General Terry
camped following the Custer
battle of June Is.
IA marker should also be
placed at the point where the
steamer Far West was anchored
in the Big Horn river, just be-
low the Big Horn bridge, two
miles east of Hardin, he said.
At the conclusion of his talk
Captain Luce answered queS-
tiDns concerning historical
points with which he is familiar
through several years of re-
search.
Darroll Cool, a second lieu
tenant in the U. S. Marine
corps, who is spending a fur
Tough visiting his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. L. R. Cool, gave a talk

gram given in the Kuchera
building last Saturday. He an
nounced that hereafter this will

Programs For Recreation

Acres of playground space are pro- vlded for both the children and the adults. Organized recreational pro grams will occupy leisure hours and tenants have the use of indoor space for work or for play.
 The vision of the Housing Author ity has already taken shape" B. M. Petit, the director, said this week. Some of the crowded, congested, ill., planned blocks of sub-standard houses have given way to clean, airy, easily accessible, pleasurable living quarters for those who, few months ago, had to live without private baths, almost without the fundamental facilities for cleanliness.
 Tn the new projects, fresh air and sunshine are no strangers, and pri- vacy, which is so important in fami- lies where there are adolescent chil- dren, is no accident. It is part of the vision of the Authority coming true" "
 Housing 1000 families means housing 1000 worImen," he added. If the efficiency of these men, because of happier, safer, more hea1thful con- ditions for their families, resulted in an increased efficiency of not more than $l per week, at the end of the year that would look like $5OOOO or $60OOO.
 Where Some Taxes Go

ty Needs More Public Housing Says New Haven Labor

cupy one of Elm Haven's largest homes at a monthly rental of $22.5O For the $22.50 they receive six and a half room home equipped with ar electric refrigerator, gas stove and utility cabinets and with heat, hot water, electricity and gas included in the rental.
 The family came from one of the worst houses in the city. Sickness was an everyday occurrence. A daughter seriously i'll with a rheumatic heart had to be boarded at the Community Center. Often the other children and the parents were i'll too.
 Doctors wouldn't let the daughter with the rheumatic heart live at home The house was damp, cold, badly ven- tilated-nurses said they often found water dripping from the walls on
 Thus the family was divided-1n- happy, badly housed, endangered al ways by the menace of the unhealthy conditions under which they were forced to live.
 "That one case alone will save the city of New Haven thousands of dol lars" a Department of Charities of fcial told Mrs. Helen MacPherson tenant selection supervisor of the Housing Authority, after the family had been selected as one of Elm Ha- ven's first tenants.
 Families Reunited
 The saving to the city was made possible by the fact that the daughter with the rheumatic heart now lives with the rest of her family in the housing project. The city is no longer responsible for her care and she is assured of healthy home conditions and the chance to recover her health in proper surroundings.
 "We have reunited a number of such families" Mrs. MacPherson said this week. Families where heart or other health conditions made it impossible for them to maintain a united home" 1"
 The stories are as plentiful as the families who occupy the Elm Haven homes.
 Rent is charged according to the in- come of the family and the location of the apartment. It is fixed SO as not to put too great drain on the meagre incomes of some of the families and low enough to permit them to pay other expenses.
 Every project provides much the same in accommodations. At Elm Ha- ven most of the families have their own front and back yards and are given permission to plant vegetables or flowers in the back yards. The kitchens are models of efficiency and convenience; the bedrooms large and airy; the bathrooms complete and modern; and the floors and walls easy to keep clean.

Seven Hundred Families
 To Have Good Homes By Spring of 1942, Report Says
Benefits Already Noted

Success has now crowned their ef- forts to point where some of the benefits of decent housing can already be noticed in the community. Police report less juvenile delinquency in the Dixwell Avenue neighborhood; the police precinct in Dixwell Avenue is now closed; business is undergoing a revival in the vicinity of the project and life has taken on a new meaning for some families.
 Elm Haven, the $2,6Oo,OOO project in Dixwell Avenue, is nearly com pleted and soon will house 487 1ow-in- come families who are most in need and most deserving.
 On the banks of the Quinnipiac River in a spot of natural beauty Quinnipiac Terrace, a 30O-family project is fast rising. Some units will be ready for occupancy in June.
 Nearer downtown New Haven, in the Grand Avenue section of the city Farnam Court, a 248-fami1y apartment project, will clear out a particularly bad area and will bring new life and new comforts to an old neighborhood.
 Even so, housing in New Haven is still in its infancy. The 1,035 families who will be housed in the three proj- ects now under construction represent only a fraction of those families who are in need of decent places in which to live and bring up their families.
 Labor and housing must continue to march hand-in-hand.
 Human Facts Not Known
 The story of housing and labor's fight for housing in New Haven is we'll known. The stories behind the successful fght-the stories of families brought together, of families taken from unspeakab1y bad homes, of fami- lies shown a better way of living are not so well known.
 One of the greatest things low-cost housing has done in New Haven is to reunite families long separated be- cause of health or financial conditions
 The Story of One Family

New Haven. It has fought the oppo- nents of housing every step of the way. It recorded its favorable atti- tude with the city administration and the Board of Aldermen and it fought off attempts to stall and delay the pro- gram in Fair Haven.
 It prodded when prodding was necessary.
 The names of State Senator Joseph T. Rourke, labor's representative on the Housing Authority Harold V. Feinmark, president of the Central Labor Council; and William Fucker man, business agent of the Painters Union, stand out among the list of labor men who have consistently worked to give New Haven better housing for its poorer families.

One of the main things to remember in our housing program is that it will be the responsibility of management, without in any sense becoming pa ternalistic or bossy, to see that the properties are well maintained and that the opportunities of better living are taken advantage of"

1,173,663 Civilians
 Hold Government Jobs

WASHINGTON, D.C.-The United States Civil Service Commission re- ported that the executive branch of the Government employed 1,173663 civilians in February, 1941, as com pared with 1,151,l48 in January, an increase of 2 per cent. Over 80 per cent of this increase was in full time permanent employees paid from regu- lar funds. Employees of the Federal Government in the District of Colum- bia increased to ,527, compared with the January figure of 158,587.

ter of wage policy sought to assure its service employees full annual earn ings and has accordingly endeavored to provide special summer work where regular jobs are seasonal. Special efforts in this direction, beginning in lo36, were recently brought to a point where 50 weeks work is assured all male employees excepting one or two groups where at present it is impos- sible to find work the men can do. Two weeks vacation and up to three weeks sick leave with pay, provisions also designed to assure full yearly earnings, are now standard terms of employment for all excepting part time employees.
 Hours of Work
 Hours of work have been reduced during the past two decades. The mechanical maintenance staff, for ex- ample, is now on 40-hour week while janitors' hours have been reduced from 54 or more to standard maximum of AZ per week. Longer hours are com |pensated for by overtime pay or special rates.
 Employment Service Provisions. It has been the policy of the University to provide so far as possible for the social needs and security of its em- ployees. In accordance with this policy the following provisions have been put into effect:
 "a. Prior to 1920 the University chose to accept the most protective features of the Connecticut Workmen's Compensation Act.
 'b. In 1928 the University provided group life insurance for its service employees without cost to them.
 Pensions
 C. Yale began to pension aged em- ployees many years ago, following an informal plan, and in 1o4O, adopted a formal Retirement Allowance Plan. Last year Yale joined other colleges and universities in urging the enact ment of bill to permit educational in-

 Good housing means not only housing good architecturally and structurally, but good in management By this very means, the concern of some, expressed by the old 'coal-in- the-bathtub-theory,' is being eliminat- ed. It has been demonstrated beyond question that good housing does not always make a change in the tenants

 For Slum Clearance and Better Hous-
 Ing, more than 300 low-income fami-
 lies have been taken from dark, badly ventilated, unhealthy homes and are receiving the benefits of homes in New Haven.
 z Seven hundred more families will be decently housed in the Housing Authority's three low-rent projects by the spring of 1o42.
 Workers, in return, have been re- ceiving the benefits of steady employ |ment at decent wages since April, |le40, when the first project was begun. Labor is justly proud of its con- tribution to the housing program in
