WE'VE BEEN ASKED: About Draft Deferment For Employees

(The new draft regulations are raising many problems for businessmen. So far, the major ity of employees in most con- cerns have been deferred from the draft because they were sup porting dependents. Employers had To watch the draft status only of single men without de pendents IF those few men whose families were financially independent. Now the draft status of many employees with dependents is to becpme import ant 10 their employers)
 Are men with dependents to be drafted now?
 Yes. within the next few months, draft boards will re classify anh call up many men with dependents. Unmarried men who are supporting parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters or other relatives are 10 be taken wherever the service men'S allot ment pay will provide reason able subsistence 10 these depend entS.
 After this group is exhausted, married men with children will be called. How soon the second group IS tapped will depend on whether Congress decides to draft 18 and lq-year-olds.
 Are all men with children to be deferred?
 Yes. for the ,ime being. Local boards operating under the new regulations will not draft men with wives and children with whom they are maintaining s bona hde family relationship 1T their homes.
 What of men whose familie, are financially independent? AT, they no longer subject to call?
 Local boards have been inStruc ed 10 stop reclaSsifying men witt families from 3-A into IA mere. ly because their families are able to get along financially w.thou' them.

 Because of the War the Territory and it's citizens must make many adjustments. It is more important now than in times of Peace that we choose carefully the men to be our members in the Legislature. The limited powers we have in our Government must be watched and preserved.

and supplying of materials, parts. equipment and services neces- sary to such construction also fall lrto the essential group.
 Where can a list of essential industries be obtained?
 Each local board now has a list of 34 essential industries pre- pared by Selective Service head quarters for the guidance of the boards.
 Will all local boards begin call ing married men at the same time?
 That Is the intent of the new regulations. Whenever a local board eXhausts it's supply of un- married men, it now IS required to notify the State director of Selective Servce. Wherever pos Sible. the State director then will reduce the quota assigned to that local board and raise the quotas as gned to other local boards in tle State Waere unmarried men stlll are available. In the same way. national headquarters will attempt to adjust the size of the calls on States to make it un- necessary for enc State to begin drafting married men until most other Sta'eS have about exhaust ed their supplies of single men.

Duke university graduate from Hertford, N. c. They left Halifax for Murmansk on their first voyage last February. Out of Rykjavik a storm broke up the convoy, left their and five others together with only a trawler for escort.
 They kept together for four days and finally caught sight of the rest of the convoy. A battle was in progress, and the cruiser that tried to come to their aid had to turn back for more urgent duty e.se- where. They finally made run for it and escaped in snowstorm, but not before an enemy plane had disabled one of the six ships.
 ICEBOuND UNTIL SPRING
 Then they got stuck in the ice of Barents Sea-Stuck, with the temperature 10 below. and sub marines ducking in and out of the ice foes of Lovers Lane" the passage above Norway's North Cape. Three of the ships broke out: planes got the other two. And submarine sunk one of the remaining three.
 It was April when the last two fought of the ice and enemy and again joined the convoy in Kola Bay, the passage to Murmansk. There the enemy hit them with everything. And there the U. s. Armed Guard shot down its first Nazi plane, In fact. Gun Crew l-E shot down two and assisted in the destruction of a third, fir ing round after round in hell of altitude and dive bombing and low level gunning. That got them medals.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-11-17

The Armed Guard is not, as some suppose, a group of uniformed home defenders or a branch of the Merchant Marine, It's an outfit of courageous U, s, Navy men who serve as gun crews on cargo and transport vessels,
 The Navy calls them ''clay pigeons" and war orphans" and their ships floating coffins," They are as open to attack as ducks in a shooting gallery. They don't seek the enemy, but are sought by him. And when he finds them, they have perhaps half dozen machine guns and, on larger ships, a four or five-inch guns with which to defne6l the ship and crew en- trusted to their care from air, Sur- face and submarine craft.
 What they can do with few guns and much guts WIS disclosed at a ceremony in Brooklyn the other day, when Rear Admiral Edward J. MarQuart presented medals and concentrations to one officer and 25 men in the first public ceremony honoring the Armed Guards.
 TELL HEROIC TALES
 The citations unfolded a success sion of heroic stories-of men who calmly repaired guns in hail of bullets. rescued merchant seamen and carried them to safety, stayed by their guns till they were awash. And they told the stories of l6 officers and 2S0 men from the Brooklyn Armed Guard Gen. ter who had given their lives to keep the sea lanes open.
 Take the story of Gun Crew i-E, the first Armed Guard crew to be organized, the first assigned to a merchant vessel, and the first to be decorated with the Navy Silver Star medal.

Working Mothers No

Neglected Children Under l6 Sole Jurisdiction of Juvenile Court Miss Crowley Tells N. Y. Audience

1 Professional Women at the Hotel Astor, New York city, last night.
 Miss Crowley was guest of the league at a dinner which preceded Q speaking program on which she was heard
 Long linked to probation work in Waterbury, Miss Crowley discussed at length the modern-day problems of juvenile delinquency and how they are being met by Connecticuts new juvenilue court, in operation since January 1, l042, one of two such in all the United States. Utah Is the only other state with juvenile court on c state. divide basis,
 Discussing the Connecticut court Miss Crowley said, The sole juris- diction of our court is the delin- quent and neglected child under sixteen. Ours is Q court which de- votes its entire energies to the problems of the child and is under the wise, intelligent guidance of three full-time judges. Judge Fred D. Faulkner of district ? is the presiding iudge--a wise, kind, and considerate man who lives and un- derstands children. investigations, etc. arc i'll the hands of a qualified stag of 40 probation officers, chosen from list, after competitive ex- aminations
 Discussing the problem found in so many industrial cities today working mothers = Miss Crowley asked her audience Whose is the responsibility of looking after their children while the mothers are at work? Several plans have been of fered-one that mothers be em- ployed on shifts that will interfere least with their home duties. Others propose that community and goy- ernment work together to provide nursery schools for working moth- CTS. Some factories have a nursery within their gates where the chill dren of working mothers are cared for. The need for some solution of this very pressing problem is very evident to welfare workers who go into the homes daily
 Referring to the value of prooa- ton work to the community Miss Crowley said, Judge Lindsey once said, The probation officer earnest- ly and enthusiastically engaged in his work, will do more in the course of a year to prevent crime than the best district attorney can do in five years in prosecuting crimes
 More than this, believe that the influence of good probation officer with an understanding heart and genuine interest in human beings can help mold the character and interests of those entrusted to his care in very marked degree The most outstanding attribute of the boys ard girls. men and women, who come into court is their utter loneliness. If We could only shout from press and pulpit the importance of the parental role. the fundamentals of child care, We would get a pretty gooo start on preventing some delin- | quency."
 Again referring to environment the speaker stated that Bad hous ing, slums, honkyi-tonks, and the lure of city streets, lack of good recreational facilities, particularly boys clubs and girls clubs, ard all the other reasons for delin- quency are most important, but poor home conditions and lack of | parental control ard love head the list so far as I am concerned.

|MEATLESS DAYS
 COVERED NATION IN WORLD WAR l

Washiaeton, Nov, lv-kUpl--New YorkS meatleSs Tuesday, naAasR0~ rated recently, ss nothing news Nhe whole country observed a naeatleSS Tuesday during the iirst World War,
 Records at National Archives ln Washington show that chefs ln ho~ tcls and dining cars, and house wives from coast Co coast began sea~ turing special war menus, using menus, using meat substitutes tn place Of pork, beef and mutton.
 Employes m eating places wore special buttons and sleeve emeleMS Co remind customers of meatleSS Tuesday and to encourage the ooc~ triae of the 'clean platea it was patriotic to eat everything.
 Then, as now, New York reported its inhabitants took meatleSs days with smile, Food authorities M Kansas City reported restaurateusS had trouble with patrons who or 6erod bacon and ham for breakfast and steak for dinner,
 500 ship Crews Ate Less
 Pennsylvania proclaimed that beef could be served only at noon, Pork was not eaten on Saturday in some communities. Bremen in Washing ton started raising gardens to al- leviate the meat shortage by grow ing some of their own meat Sab~ stitutes. Suppers were beetleSS on all railroads, Among the first to limit their consumption Of meat were 600 merchant vessel crews, to prove even physical laborerS could do without meat.
 During World War I meatleSS days were put in effect because the Allies and our armed forces were taking an ever larger percentage oi our supply. In addition, there was so much congestion in tranSporta- ton that meatless days were e method to cut down freight, In four months the program was nation wide, from Oct, 1917, to Feb, 1918; l40, 900, 900 pounds of beef were con- served, according to Food A0minis- tration records
 In March, 1918, the meatleSs-days were discontinued because a through; in the West made it necessary for cattlemen to sell their stock. There was also large amount of lamb on the market.
 How important the Hoover food administration considered food con- servation is disclosed by some of their old slogans: Food will help win the war'-which has been re- vived by the Department of Agricul- ture-"Erery hog is of greater value to winning the war than shell, v and Serve by saving"
 "A Meatless Meal Day"
 A home card of 1918 contained this message: Hang this card in your kitchen, Problems; Allies - soldiers. Solutions: Wheat, beef, pork, butter, sugar. Two wheatleSS days, Monday and Wednesday: one meatleSs meal every day"
 Another card sent out by the food administration listed the following ways to serve by saving: Save wheat, meat, fats, use substitutes, cut transportation, eat everything.
 Wheat was even more problem than meat because our allies and armed forces made a heavy drain on our whet supply. The surplus of wheat during this war has made "wheatless days a problem of an- other era.
 Tuesdays were chosen as meat less days because Tuesday is a mid week day, half-week from Friday, which is fish cay among many Americans
