Master Gets Down

ABert S. Goss master of the Ma

nation, in radio address, to take
certain steps to halt initiation. He
favored some steps that will prove
mild shock, at least, to num-
Der of people who are inclined to
give this problem not enough care
full thought Goss said "some mis-
takes have been made which threat
en- to break down our whole price
control program" and recommend
ed steps to halt initiation, includ-
ing these:
|. Freeze everything temporarily,
including wages.
2. Recognize the fact that it will
be necessary for all to accept some
what lower standards of living.
3. Abandon the idea that all in
creased living costs must be accom-
panied by increased income.
4. Permit necessary price adjust
rnents, up or down, where profits
are excessive.
3, Permit adjustments of sub
standard wages or cases where in

IN the general wage level.
The Grange master also advised
a comprehensive research into the
question of a practical base for
determining that portion of the
national income which should in
justice go to industry, labor and
agriculture.
Use cash subsidies only as a last
resort, said Goss. IF they become
necessary, let them be applied at
the point of processing or distribu-
ton where profits and prices can
be kept under rigid control"
Goss said adjustments in ceilings
must be made to "avoid stranglinp
production" adding.
Those adjustments must be abb
sorbed by the public. This will take
sacrifice and courage, but any other
course will lead to disaster. The
increased costs of consumer goods
Will lower our standards of living
somewhat, but if profiteering is
eliminated and labor also brought
within the scope of price control
the increase will not be excessive
and our present level of income will
be ample to meet it,"

Bygone depression days were
brought to mind this week when
local sheriff's officers were called
upon to feed a wandering family
that was making its way through

we may be permitted to say so, bit
grimy. The usual hard luck story

we'll, and were last seen pounding

In regard to the Savage Lake re-

of Lincoln County or at least Troy
and Libby should secure this beau
full lake and its shoreline properties
for its public playground. The sew

If the resort could be incorporat-
ed as tourist camp store, and with
all the facilities at hand. there is
no reason why the needed cash for

POLES

A little konwn, but thrilling story of West Point has been gloriously brought to the screen in 20th Gen. tury-Fox's action-packed adventure film, Ten Gentlemen From West Point" which opened last night to a capacity audience at the Loew Poli theater.
 Starring George Montgomery, Maureen O'Hara and John Sutton, the film has a patriotic appeal that is bound to thrill every American. It's a rousing successor to ITO The Shores of Tripoli" and 1t rooms through its paceS without hitch.
 Ten Gentlemen From West Point is the story of the valorous cadets who made the West Point of today possible. Against the stirring, breath less background of the Point of one hundred and forty years ago, the star-spangled film authentically de- picts the adventures of the first graduating class, on whose record de bends the very life of the Academy. Their trials and tribulations are told in unusual terms, and the film has the distinction of being unlike any other made about West Point.
 On the same program is another smash hit, Tt Happened In Flat bush" featuring Lloyd Nolan and Carole Landis.
 Martha Kaye, famous singing comedienne of stage, screen and radio is appearing in person for two big days, Wednesday and Thursday of next week on the stage.

There is nothing cheap about Star and Garter" except some of the humor) and, if you are suffi- ciently broadminded, it is a thor oughly enjoyable show. That it has Bobby Clark, complete with paint ed-on specs, cigar and midget can, caVorting in his best form will be sufficient come on for the initiated, and besides there is the noted author -stripper, Gypsy Rose Lee, to provide still another kind of lure.
 Others on hand are Pat Harring- ton, the Irish comic from Jack Whites "18 Club; another head liner of the -defunct burlesque industry, Georgia Southern, and buxom Carrie Finnell, a former burlesque queen whose control of her chest muscles is a sight indeed Miss Finnell has to be seen to be believed.
 Ed Wynn Makes" the Show
 Subtlety is not the aim of Star and Garter" and the humor, some of it very, very funny, is of the OpA O1l LOdu1CA 4OdN lldo collected skits old and new, pro vided twists here and there to brush up the ancient material, and gen. erally gone all-out to provide New York with high priced fac-simile of the form of entertainment which has been kicked out of New York by the mayor.

STRAND

The Strand opened today with a four-day engagement of two first run, first Waterbury showing, feat ures. Headlining this twin bill is Escape from Hongkong", depicting faithfully the action which took place in Hongkong the week before the city was captured by the Japan ese, and the part the British and Americans took to combat the ac- tivities of Axis spies and fifth col umniStS. Leo Carillo, Andy Devine and Don Terry take the leading roles in the picture, and assume the characterizations of three Ameri- can vaudeville actors who are pre- senting a marksmanship act in Hongkong theater when the trouble starts. The romantic interest is supplied by Terry and Marjorie Lord. The latter plays the part of beautiful girl who is an agent of the British Intelligence Office, although she masquerades as an Axis operative. Here, indeed, is a film as up to date as news flash on your radio.
 If you like your movies crammed with horror and chills, then you'll most certainly enjoy "The Mad Monster" the second big first run first Waterbury showing feature on the same program. George Zucco plays the part of a mad scientist who plans fiendish revenge on four fellow scientists who have caused his dismissal from the college facul- ty because he advances a theory that human can be transformed into a beast by blood transfusions. Buried away in an old mansion in a dismal swamp, the crazed man of science experiments with a giant of country youth who is simple ton. He injects a wolf's blood into his subject, and gradually is able to transform him into a wolf man at will, and back to normal by an an- tidote. The drama comes to sen sational climax with the lives of the girl, Anne Nagle, and the boy friend, Johnny Downs, imperiled as the wolf man gees on a rampage through the gloomy mansion in the marsh. Brrr, it sure is spine tingling, blood chilling and the years most terrifying shocker.

Volunteers Needed
 For Nursing Service
Various Agencies Working Diligently to Train Aides
 to Make Up Shortage; Campaign Is On

The women of Connecticut were asked today by the State Defense Council to help make up the short age ill nurses and auxiliary nursing services caused by the demands of the armed forces on trained per- Sonnel.
 The council points out that 24,000 registered nurses will be needed by the army and navy by September of this year. Of these Connecticut mutt supply 1854. Vital war in- dus$ries need thousands more. The cou;atry will need 55,000 new stu dent nurses this year and the Red Cross is trying to enroll 100000 nurSeS' aides. Women are also urged to take the home nursing courses given by the Red Cross as means of relieving professionals for other services.
 In letter to local women's di- visions and volunteer offices, Mrs Ralph c. Lasbury, Jr., director of vomen's activities for the council, asked that wide notice be given to .he needs of the nursing service.
 Graduate nurses" she says, If notified of the need, might return temporarily to full or part time nursing. Volunteer offices should encourage such persons to re-enter the nursing field, and might arrange to free them by furnishing them with help at home.
 Student nurses can be of almost immediate help since they care for the sick, under supervision, and thereby release graduate nurses.
 Tn the Red Cross campaign to enroll 100000 nurses aides for the country as a whole Connecticut has done 8 good job thus far. Nine teen of the twenty-two hospitals approved to train nurses aides are giving this training. Many more nurses aides are urgently needed, particularly from among those Wo- men who are not regularly employed. Not only is the training and prac- tical service under professional su- pervision tremendously valuable, but those who give this service know that they are indispensable. Eighty hours Of training and at least 15O hours of service annually in hospital, clinic or uiSpensary, are the requirements. Women between eighteen and fifty years may enroll.
 Several approved schools in Connecticut offer courses, from twelve to eighteen months in length, which qualify their graduates for admission to licensing examinations as trained attendants.
 Tt is important to spread knowl- edge of home nursing into every household. There are several req sons for this: professional nursing care may have to be limited to those who are acutely i'll; hospital space is already restricted; and some towns may find themselves without trained nurses. If we learn how to

events in the haphazard manner for which he is noted is entertainment not to be missed.
 Assisting him are such perform CTS as Songstress Jane Froman; the premiere flamenco dancer, Carmen Amaya, and her troupe; Senor is a revelation in his line; Joe Smith and Charles DaIe, the vaudeville veterans, who perform one of their old but still convulsing skits; an aerial act, the Herzog troupe of Russian singers; 8 pair of famous badminton players who demonstrate this strenuous game, and Hector and his multitudinous trained dogs.
 A couple of out of town theaterS are going to get an important the atrical event that will be denied Broadway for year at least. Paul Robeson, noted Negro actor singer is going to play the title role of "Othello" the week of August 10 at Brattle Hall, Cambridge, Mass, and the following week at the McCarter Theater, Princeton, N. J.
 Robeson's prior engagements pre- vent bringing the production to Broadway before the fall of 1943 at least. The play will be staged by Margaret Webster, top Shakespeare director of the day, who has done the excellent Maurice Evans produc- tions. The wife husband team of Uta Hagen and Jose tFerrer will take the other leading roles of Des- demona and Iago. Robeson played "Othello" in London in 1880.
