 There was no idea left in the minds of the spectators that the Cards chance in the ninth was mighty slim Thousands already had filed out of the park when Walker Cooper, Gard catcher, punched a single through Red Rolfe on third base to start the amazing uprising.

A Thought for Today


How permanent the change may be
there is no way of predicting. But be-
fore this war is ended, industrial dis
elimination based on racial prejudices
will have been pretty thoroughly elm
mated. This prediction is not based on
any naive notion that the millennium
is just around the corner. There does
seem to be a little ebb in the wave of
anti-SemitiSm which flowed high up to
recently. There are evidences of slight
improvement in the attitude toward
Negroes But those changes seem so
minute that one cannot be certain they
exist at all.
The walls of prejudice in industry are
crtmbling for the simple and effective
reason that we do not have enough
utilize every available unit with utmost
efficiency. If personnel departments
were free to reject Jews, Negroes, New
Workers, women, men with receding chins,
and members of the Roman Catholic
Church - in other words, if industries
were permitted to express the prejudices
OF their operators or employment man.
ayers in the selection of Workmen-we
could not do what will be necessary to
whip the Axis.
Therefore, whether individuals or
groups may like it, racial, religious, Sec
tional and idioSyncratic bars are going
to be lowered close to the ground within
q very few months. In the two calendar
years now under way, we plan to triple
our output of ships, quadruple our man.
Tfacture of airplaneS, triple our output
Of guns and munitions. We can do these
things only if we put 100000 men and
women into war factories by mid-Novenl-
Der, 100000 by next New Years, TO-
100000 by 1914. We were using seven
millions at the beginning of this year and
only about nine millions last April l.
& The War Manpower Commission has
figured on sources for 12,500,00O soldiers
and workers we need in 1912, by draining
every vessel - taking seven or eight mil
lions from civilian production, pirating
half million from the already hard
pressed farms, getting two million women,
youths, and average ex-workers, etc. But
at time when we are scraping the
bottom Of the labor larder that hard, it
requires no seer to predict that employers
will not be permitted to leave potential
Workmen unused because of race, religion,
sex, or any prejudice. Idealists are
pleased. They hope that after the war
the changed situation will endure But
Ehe pressure of vital emergency and
aot any social program, will have been
sesponsible.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-06-08

According to the press of the state a
prominent birth control advocate in
Connecticut has termed the recent 80
decision of our Supreme Court upholding
the state law on birth control as Gin
credible. Further than that this spokes-
man - Mrs. Thomas Hepburn - re-
marked, "And SO again these men on our
Supreme Court have taken it upon them
selves to give narrow literal interpre-
tation to an old law and to condemn to i'll
health or death millions of women In
Connecticut. It is incredible. :. >"
On the other hand there are people
who term it incredible that AN effort
would be made to upset the laws from
which all man-made laws draw their au-
thority. The tendency of mankind to
ignore and deny its dependency on
Divine Being and to refuse to adhere to
a moral order is distressing when prac-
ticed by those whose education and
training are of high degree. Man has
thwarted nature in many different ways,
but when the procreation of human be-
ings is subsidized by planned parenthood
it's high time to show fear of the con-
sequences and to pray that those who
preach this gospel may see the error of
their ways.

Fuel Situation Bad?

According to a recent statement in
New York newspaper the coming winter
in New England may long be remem-
bered by house4hoIderS as one of the
worst in history. The person who made
the statement wasn't weather prophet
with far-seeing eyes as to the trend dur
ing the winter months. He simply claimed
to know that the fuel situation was going
to be critical and that users of oil as furn-
ace fuel would bear the brunt of the
lack of the same. In his own words the
east faces a terrible awakening"
OF course with the warm weather
ahead of us not too many people will
worry about that. But it is of serious
concern to all houSeholderS who are using
oil and are depending upon it. There may
be some furnaces that can be readily
converted to use of coal, but if every one
tried to do that in the next few months
there'd be no possibility of taking care
of all of the orders, due to both scarcity
of labor and materials. So on the score of
conversion there doesn't seem to be too
much hope, if the outlook is as bad as
it is said to be.
There is this possibility, though, and
we can only hope that it is borne out by
the facts The Atlantic coast will be I'M
der closer surveillance with each passing
day. Dim-outs along the shore are going
to make it more difficult for enemy sub
marines to operate after dark. If they
operate in daylight they are going to be
running dangerous chances. There
should be more oil available for New Eng
land on this score. But there's always the
chance that something will intervene to
prevent this. So there may be cause for
gloom about fuelless and heatless days
ahead.

THE SUGAR REGISTRARS
(Hartford Courant)


The registration OF sugar users
may not be the most glorious assign
rnent in the war, but 1t is certainly
one to tax the patience of Job. Only
those who have tried to disentangle
the family relationships Of a house,
hold of fourteen members or who
have wrestled with the problem OF
spelling the name of one who cannot
spell, have any conception OF the
difficulties encountered.
For the way in which they have
handled this job, the teachers and
the persons assisting them deserve
the congratulations Of the cOmrnun-
ity. They have answered the same
question a hundred times and have
filled out the montonous blanks
over and over again without losing
their tempers or thinking OF COM
pensation.
In other lands. the work Of the
teachers has been more dramatic,
the teachers OF Norway, for example,
constituting one OF the important
vocal points in resistance to the
Germans. But the. teachers Of AM
erica should not be ashamed OF their
less noble lot. Although they have

Dallas down in Texas probably has
many claims to distinction, but right now
it has national prominence which won't
be denied for the duration. In Dallas is
being constructed right now the last
skyscraper of the war. There WON'T be an
other one started in any American city
until the war has sufficiently let up to
free critical materials for all types of
building construction. A 36-story build
ing is going up rapidly in Dallas, main
ly steel work, and the War Production
Board has let it be known definitely that
it's the last of this kind during the war.
How New York and other metropolitan
centers will receive this information re-
mains to be seen. But you certainly can
rest assured that Dallas for years will be
able to boast that its new Mercantile
Bank Building was the last skyscraper
built during World War II.

for the making of butyl rubber, should

itary. The specifications against Stand

The Pay-OG

Now comes the payoff. A thousand

beside which London, at worst, was a
haven for the neurotic. Another thou

the size Of Washington, in ruins.
What was it that Herr Goering prom
