BOREDOM DANGEROUS

The Russians have plenty Of re-
SiStance against what others
might consider almost unbearable
physical hardships. What might
break them. if the danger had not
been foTeseen and guarded against,
are boredom and sorrow.
All work and no play makes
Jack dull boy in any country,
and so the Russian government
even while imposing its spartan
regimen on the civilian popula-
ton 10 provide the armed forces
with all they need, also has pro-
.vided recreation for the folks be-
hind the lines.
This is Of two main types: pure
recreation. and recreation with q
base of propaganda. The former
IS supplied by the ballet, an
artistic leftover from the days of
the cars.

CALLED UP RECRUITS

drew 10 kuibysheV, that Russia
had transported immense armed
forces from her far eastern army
TO bolster the armies of the west.
This is not true.
The reserves called up at that
time were raw recruits from Just
beyond the Urals and they are
now fighting against the Germans
as seasoned veterans.
The vast army OF the East,
numbering undiscloSed millions, is
still untouched.
Russia is still unweakened also
so far as the civilian population
goes, despite the severe burdens
the civilians have Shouldered
through the long months of war.
IS The reason for this seems 10 be
twofold: first the character Of the
people themselves. and second a
carefully calculated program OF
morale building on the part OF the
government.
Russians have had more practice
in lean living than the people OF
most lands and they are Injured.

DEALERS TO PLAN
MILK DELIVERIES
Meeting at City Hall Thurs
day Evening to Perfect
New Arrangements

Detailed plans for placing local
milk deliveries on an every other
day" basis will be worked out at a
meeting of the Waterbury Milk
Dealers association at the city hall
Thursday night. Present plans call
for beginning the new system on
Sunday, Feb. l.
Local dealers are cooperating
with the dairy industry of Connec-
ticut in the program, which is
aimed at helping the victory drive
by conserving tires, gasoline and
delivery trucks. Dealers hope that
families will cooperate by ordering
a double supply of milk on the day
of each delivery. Special deliveries
will also be curtailed.
Some milk firms plan to con-
tinue to operate on a Seven-day
week basis but will have drivers
deliver to only half of their normal
route one day and to the other half
the next day. Other dealers are
undecided whether to follow this
plan or to deliver to entire routes
one day, then make no deliveries
whatever the next day.
The dealers association is a new
organization, members of the in
dustry having worked together pre-
viously only through the medium of
the Waterbury Milk Bottle ex-
change A committee appointed at
the associations original meeting
earlier in the month will submit a
series of recommendations at
Thursdays meeting.

fifth districts congressional rep
resentative at Washington Thurs

workmen's compensation commits
sioner will undoubtedly go to Gov.

week. He had almost four years
of his five-year term remaining.
As the newest Republican
member of the house, Mr.. Talbot
will be greeted by many col
leagues. Party leaders attach real
significance to his election in view
of the fact that it came little
more than a month after the war
and took place in a district that
had been Democratic for eight
years.
Conferences with state Repub-
lican leaders are planned by Mr..
Talbot before he leaves for Wash
ington. He is now completing
rulings on compensation cases
which have been before him.
Early action on appointment of
. successor is expected from Gov.
Robert A. Hurley, once he has re-
ceived Mr.. Talbot's resignation as
compensation commissioner.
The congressional term to
which Mr.. Talbot was elected
runs to next January. 1t is ex-
pected that he will be candidate
for a full term in the November
elections.
