40 VOLUNTEERS
 REGISTER HERE
WOmen's Home Defense Committee Supervising
 Work of Assignments

The work of registering and plac- ing volunteer workers in positions where they can contribute directly or indirectly to the national de- fense is continuing, with forty vol unteers already enrolled. and placed by the Central Volunteer Bureau in the Chamber of Commerce Building.
 Members of the Waterbury Wom- ems Committee for Home Defense, which operates the central bureau, are receiving the cooperation of several women's organizations throughout the city. A meeting was held recently at the home of Mrs. Mark L. Sperry, Jr., in Middle bury, at which the presidents of several such groups in the city promised support.
 Many of the groups are making an active effort to determine the various qualifications of their mem- bers for volunteer work, and to in- duce them to register with the cen- tral bureau, in order to augment and to coordinate Waterbury's con- tributions to the campaign for na- tional defense.
 Volunteers are still urgently needed, as there are many oppor- tunities in connection with local housing conditions, in work in the hospitals, in caring for children whose mothers are working, and in nutritional study. The central bu- reau will also place volunteers with the regular social and welfare agencies in the city.

Big Anti War Rally
 To Be Staged Here
America First Committee Presents Three Outstanding Speakers at Tuesday Evenings Meeting at The Elton

CTS at a gigantic anti-war in Stam- ford, conn. Following this rally she will leave for the west coast to work with Kathleen Norris.
 The second speaker of the evening will be Cary Jacob, professor at Smith College, considered one of the foremost educators in America.
 Possessing an outstanding back. ground Professor Jacob is well quail flied to speak on Americas foreign policy. Professor Jacob has address ed many of the mammoth rallies which the national association of the America First committee have sponsored throughout the nation.
 Edward J. Ryan of Thomaston, hard hitting opponent of Americas entrance into another world war will be the third speaker. MT. Ryan is well known throughout the New Eng land states where he has just com- pleted an extensive speaking tour.
 The America First Committee to- day asked the members of the Aid for the Allies" group to attend the rally, because as the committee put 1t, We may say some things about that war party and we would like to have their members right there to hear what we have to say", and from all indications there will be plenty said about the motives and the objectives of that war party"
 With anti-war sentiment report. edly on the increase the local chap ter of the America First committees urged grand turn out because in this manner only can those who seek to keep America out of an- other shooting war make their op- position felt. By their large turn outs they have succeeded in bringing con- siderable pressure to bear on the United States Congress. Many mem bers of the Congress state definitely that if it were not for the opposi- ton and the fact that our people are not warming up to the war prop- aganda, this country would have been thrown into a shooting war long ago.
 The Mothers of American Sons are cooperating with the America First committee to make this rally the most successful ever held in this city.
