Not h End

News Of the great Allied naval
victory IN the Coral Sea-mostly
American, by the ways among the
5e>, that has come out Of the Pacific
since the war began While il is eN-
tremely cheering, no rational person
Viii make the mistake Of assuming
that The japanese fleet has been
mashed, or that this IS the las. clash
that VIII be had with the powerful
Nipponese navy, OF course, it will
not be.
Bat this is the sort of thing that
@tI 90 a long way toward bringing
The laps to their senses. Perhaps It
must be repeated again and again
before that desired objective is at
tanned, as ultimately il VIII be.
This battle is a comforting answer
to those who have been demanding
that the American fleet go into ac-
t1on It is an indication, too, of the
extent to which enormous United
States naval units have been trans
fCrred to the very center OF con-
fliCt in the South Seas. MOreOVe".
it is assuring evidence of the eff
fiCienCy of our sea forces and their
capacity to give good account Of
themselves if they have half a break.
One Of the important angles of this
great sea engagement is the en-
phasis given again to the vital nee
| essity of adequate air power in this
as in all other branches of warfare.
Modern war simply cannot be car
ried on successfully without planes,
| whether on land, sea or in the air.
| There never could have been the
debacle Of Pearl HarbOr without
japanese air power, albeit such
tragedy would not have occurred
anyhow, at least not in so great
magnitude, had American forces on
the scene been alert to dangers thcv
| did not suspect but which were IN
bell weakly real nevertheless.
Government leaders in this coun-
ry and in England no longer are
afraid to tell their peoples that they
already virtually hold superiority in
the air, and that that advantage IS
rapidly and constantly increasing.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-07-30

terbury and Connecticut have voI- untary Bar Associations. Lawyers can work at their profession with out belonging to these Bar Associa- tons. They do not have to join; and if they do not join, they do not pay dues. (And, by the way, there is one lawyer in Scovill.)
 COMMENT: The worker in a closed shop cannot work without joining the union, and he must pay dues.
 A FURTHER TRUTH: The Na- tional Association of Manufacturers is purely Q voluntary association. If manufacturing enterprise wishes to join the association, it may do so. If 1t does not wish to join, it need not. Only small part of the many thousands of manufacturing enterprises in this country are mem bers of the Association. Enterprises that are not members pay no dues, but they do carry on their business In other words, there is no semblance of a closed shop in the National As- sociation of Manufacturers.
 COMMENT: We repeat, the work CT in a closed shop cannot work without joining the union, and he must pay dues.

WIDOWS AWARD.
 NOW PROTESTED
Insurance Company Con- tainer Co. Appeal From
 Compensation Ruling

An appeal has been filed in su- perior court from the compensation commissioners award to Catherine J. Lucewicz, dependent widow of Effim Lucewicz of 233 Bishop street, Waterbury. The appeal is taken by the Waterbury Container O., and the Hartford Accident and Indem- nity Insurance Co., who were named responsible for payment of $ll per week for 312 weeks to the widow.
 MT. Lucewicz died last December 9 when he fell from a second story window of the Waterbury Container Co.,, building at 1859 Thomaston ave- nue while washing windows in the employ of Hyman Pfeffer, owner of the American Window Cleaning Co.,, of 29 Leavenworth street. Compen- Sation Commissioner John J. O. Cornell in finding and award handed down July 21 ruled that the employer could not be held respon- sible for payments in that he en- ployed less than five workers, the minimum required for subjection to the employment compensation laws. He ruled that window cleaning was a part and process" of the con- tainer companys trade and for that reason 1t would have to assume com- pensation payments.

Winsted, July 30-The first two actions to be made returnable to the September Court were filed here with Superior Court Clerk c. Wesley Winslow Wednesday. Mary Elizabeth Thomas Knox of Thomas ton, administrator of the estate of William Austin Knox, seeks to re- cover damages of $15,000 in an &C., tion brought against Rose Folio and Herbert Padula, both of Tor Tington.

 In the second writ filed, Ruth Mae Currier of Cornwall seeks divorce from Clarence E. Currier of Torrington. The plaintiff. whose maiden name was Ruth Mae Bra man, claims that they were mar ried at Cornwall on August 5. 1930, and that the defendant on divers days between November 2, 1885, and July 3, 1922, has been guilty of in- tolerable cruelty Besides a divorce, Mrs. Currier seeks the custody of their five children.

was bombing Germany on such a scale, he answered:
 "It's not revenge-although we cannot forget Warsaw, Rotterdam, Belgrade, London, Plymouth and Coventry. We are bombing Ger many city by city. ever more terri ply, in order to make 1t impossible for you to go on with the war.
 That's our object and we shall pursue it remorselesSly. City by city-Luebeck, Rostock. Cologne, Emden, Bremen. Willlelmshaven, Duisburg. Hamburg-and the list grows longer and longer. Let the Nads drag you down to disaster with them if you will. That is for you to decide.
 T speak frankly to you about whether we will bomb single mili- tary targets or whole cities" Har- ris continued, Obviously we pre- fer to hit factories, shipyards, and railways. It damages Hitler's war machine most, but those who work in these plants live close to them and therefore we will hit your houses
 we regret the necessity for this. It is true that your defenses inf1.ct losses on our bombers, and your leaders try to comfort you by tell ing you our losses are so heavy that we will not be able to go on bomb- ing much, but I tell you that our losses are less than five per cent of the bombers we sent over Ger many"
 Harris pointed out that the United States had just entered the fight in Europe, and added:
 "rhe first squadrons that are forerunners of the whole air fleet have just arrived in England from the United States. Do you realize what 1t will mean to you when they bomb Germany also? I just spent eight months in America and I know what's coming over You have no chance.
 You could not defeat us in 1940 Gan you hope to win now when we are getting ever stronger, having Russia and America for allies. while you are getting more exhausted?"
 Remember this: No matter how far your armies march they will never get to England. Whatever their victories you will still have to settle the air war with us and Amer ica. You will never win that, but we are already doing so now. One final thing: It's up to you to end the war bombing. You can over throw the Nazis and make peace. It is not true that we plan peace of revenge"

 "It is up to you to end the war bombing Harris said. You can overthrow the Nazis and make peace"
 "I% comparison to what it will be like as soon as our own production of bombers comes to flood tide and American production doubles and then redoubles, all that has hap pened 50 far will seem very little" !" he said.
 "One American factory alone is already turning out one four-engin- ed bomber, able to carry four tons of bombs to any part of the reich, every two hours, and there are scores of such factories in the United States" he said.

Closed Shop" Charge
 Made Against Lawyers
SCOviII COmpany's Publication "FOr the RecOrd'' Answers CIO Allegation; Defines Voluntary AffiIiatOn

The Waterbury Bar association and the National Association of Manufacturers are not Closed Shops" and membership in either organization is optional on the part of those eligible for affiliation. The ofiicial publication of the Scovill Manufacturing company, For the Record" feels 1t necessary to make c statement as to distinction be- tween voluntary affillation and com pulsory membership in answering a recent charge of the Scovill Union News, the official organ of the CI.O. The current statement on Closed Shops" Is one of several articles in the latest issue of For the Record. For several weeks past both the company and the union have issued statements making or denying al- legations.
 The article of interest to lawyers reads as follows:
 CLOSED SHOP?
 Untrue statement in Scovill Union News, CIO, July g, 1o42, in an ar- ticle on "The Union Shop" by Alex Cashin:
 "Iet us look at some real Closed Shops. The lawyers (of whom there are 8 few in Scovill's) have closed shop in their national or ganization that is perhaps the most closed of all shops in the world. These lawyers claim that this is necessary to maintain the ethics of their profession.
 "The National Association of Manufacturers is a very tightly closed shop group"

threaten to interrupt war produc- | ton.
 Under an order issued by the di- rector of industry operations, eff fective Aug. 1, each regional direc- tor not only will be authorized to issue preference ratings within the specified limitations, but in addition may authorize a deputy in charge of priorities and materials to eXer- else such authority.
 The term emergency" Is to be interpreted as an actual breakdown or a situation where 1t is evident that breakdown or suspension of industrial operations is imminent because of damage, wear and tear, destruction or failure of parts or the like, and the required parts or sup plies are needed to repair machin- cry or equipment in order to avert such suspension or. breakdown. The issuance of preference ratings for the replacement of parts in inven- tory, or for the delivery of materials to be used for purposes of produc- ton Is not included within the au- thortZatfOn.
 The order constitutes the first step in the program of the War Produc- ton Board to decentraliZe authority for issuing preference ratings. This policy involves a step-by-Step dele gation of power, rather than an im- mediate overall grant of authority. Other steps in the process of de- velopment include a procedure granting similar authority on small construction projects and a varia- ton of the Production Requirements Plan for small users of metals which will be administered by the region al offices.
 The delegation of power to the regional offices is for the purpose of helping industrialists in the re- zion to meet the demands of the war production program.

 But ankles have feet attached to them and not so much sentiment seems to have been provoked by feet. and 1t is about feet that I would comment. There iS an in- creasing growth in practice Of stockingless women appearing ia public.
 "The proprietors of stores would be justified in refusing to try shoes on stoclkingless feet, as the next customer is entitled to some pro- lection and safeguarding because ringworm of the feet is transmits sable from person to person and js very annoying and difficult to clear up."
