tive laws, to make dead letter of many statutes.
 It might be we'll to take a leaf out of Britain's book. Union labor is more highly organized there than here and it has political party of its own to fight for it's obiectives. Labor is more united there. Tn Britain there is no division as in this country between the A. F. of l.. and the CLIO. In fighting Brltain's war, labor has taken places in the govern nent and has given up many things for the time being. There are few strikes in Britain seriously holding up production of defense materials. Against it's own union rules, British labor is submitting to dilution in the crafts so that many more hands may be put to work in the arrna- ments factories. Against all its princi- pies, labor there is working longer hours and giving up half-holidays.
 Tn Britain, as here, there lurked the fear that after the war all these conceS- sions might be taken as precedent and made permanent. But the government has given its pledge that when peace comes all that labor had won and that it voluntarily gave up shall be restored. The government is even preparing bill for Parliament to enact that pledge into law.
 It might be a very good idea If Con- gress and the administration took sirni- lar steps here to reaSSure American labor as to the future. They could guarantee labor "normalcy@when the present emer- gency ends.

Selected Poem

THE SHELL (Daniel Whitehead Hicky in the New York Times) Running upon the beach, leaving the long waves
 breaking, t.4. You brought me a shell and placed it within my
 hand; A delicate flower 1t was, deathless flower Colored by Time and polished by sea and sand. We held it up to the sun that calm blue morning. The only sound the gulls and their patterned wings Riding warm acres of air and we pondered an hour, And laughed that the heart is content with trivial
 things Now you.are gone, and am alone and lonely. Yet bright in the dark when the embers have
 died, hold in my hand the scene of a scarlet hibiscus, And all the warm white music of the tide.

A Patriotic Employer

Squawks and cries of distress over the supposed low state to which the morale of our citizen Army had fallen no longer pierce the air, or at least not in the volume of a few weeks ago. Maybe it's the result of the nction-packed war games; maybe because of the increasing tenseness of the international situation, or maybe because there are many enn- ployers as thoughtful and patriotic as George 4. Mohlman of Springfield, Mass. Sincere interest in selectees' welfare should be natural obligation of industry today, since these men are serving to pro- tect democracy, which includes the Am erican system of free enterprise" declared Mohlman.
 He does something more than talk about 1t, however. Mohlman's firm keeps up correspondence with its boys in the ranks. It lets them know how many fish Bill Smith caught, the name of the pretty new stenographer, and how business is. But best of all, Mohlman makes the marching through mud less wearisome by assuring them their jobs will be waiting for them after Uncle Sam discharges them.

Post-War Slack

Already there is lot of talk in this country about taking up the slack in our Industries when the postwar depression sets in. Even cities and towns are mak- ing plans for mighty projects that will entail much labor and expenditure of lot of money in the days when employ ment in our industries will drop below present abnormal levels. Down Bridge port way Mayor Jasper McLevy is said to have an $8,000,000 public works pro- gram ready to launch when and If the war ends and defense manufacturing lags.
 We were interested in one of the items on this program-SeWage control. Bridge port is concerned and has been for years over pollution of Long Island Sound within its immediate vicinity. It has taken many steps to end such pollution, but evidently hasn't succeeded completely, Bridgeport'S task has not been entirely enc of creating sewage disposal plant and linking all lines with it, but rather in rebuilding the present system which was more or less combination of sewers and storm water drains with the former imperative in the event of heavy storms
 Other cities are not so fortunate in possessing sewage disposal plant. It is fhe aim, though, today of every modern American city and eventually Waterbury will be in this class. Our position is aEuch the same as the average city's Such projects are so expensive that 1t takes long time for the money to be obtained to accomplish the necessary work, unless heavy burden were to be Immediately imposed on the taxpayers. Whether or not Waterbury should con- ceive it's modernized sewage system as a project for the postwar period is ques- tionable.
 De don't think anyone really knows when this postwar period vii. occur. It might be 1942, 1943, or it might not come for several years more. Tn the meantime little or nothing would be done on vital public works if we followed a system of storing up such projects for depression days. So far as humanly and financially possible we believe Waterbury must carry on its promise to end Naugatuck Valley pollution as soon as possible.

completely loaded, women and children perched atop the cargoes.
 ThIs evacuation of precious in- dustrlal materials is one reason for the tremendous number of trucks which the United States is sending the Russians now.
 Contrary to most reports regard- ing the inefficiency of Russian transport, the American observers came back convinced that the Russians were doing an amazing job.
 It was this enthusiasm which persuaded the President to stop planes, tanks, artillery actually on route tO Us S. army camps and send them to Boston for unemployment to AFchangel. Real fact is that although one billion in credits has been ex- tended Russia, another billion will be extended shortly.
 NOTE - Tragedy is that the Roosevelt administration marked time all summer, did not send the Hartman mission to Moscow until three months after Hitler invaded, and had gone 6 long way on the road to Moscow.
 WALLY's FIRST LOVE
 Before she became the Duchess of Windsor, Wally Simpson had a long row of broken hearts on her record. Almost every man she met fell in love with her, but there were very few she loved In return. (Some friends say this even inc ciuded, at first, the King of Eng land)
 Tn fact, about the only man who never succumped to Wally's charm was Felipe Espil, the present Ar. genuine ambassador.
 ESpil is rated by the State De- partment as the ablest diplomat in Washington. In addition he has charm, wit, and many ladies rate him as the hansomest man in the capital.
 When Espil was 6 dashing young secretary of the Argentine Embassy he knew the then Wallis Simpson and knew her well. Tn fact Wallis was reported at the time to be in love with him.
 The Embassy office stands on a little side street, and Espil's of- flee at that time looked out on the street. Beneath this window at times, the now Duchess of

The history of the Fifth Congressional district Is rich in many political tales of campaigns and campaigners. Most of them are Republican in nature for the district down through the years that, 1t has existed has been more or less Repub- lican. Only in the last ten years has real marked change in its political nature come to the fore. Only twice before Judge J. Joseph Smith was elected for four successive terms had Democrats succeed ed in breaking through the magic cir elected and ten years prior to that Nau- gatuck's well-known William Kennedy was carried into office on the Woodrow Wilson landslide. The late James P. Glynn is, of course, the real war-horse of the district. He represented 1t from 1914 to 1928 and then took up again in 1925 to remain at Washington until his death. Incidentally, it required special election to fill his office in 1880.
