TO MARRY, NOT TO MARRY
Nevada State JournaD

To marry or not to marry in wartime
seems to be problem for young people
on which there are divergent points of
view, to wit:
The navy has Just abandoned its rule
that officers of the navy and marine
corps may not marry during the first
two years after they receive their COM
missions.
And Dr. Charles F. Marden, Rutgers
university sociologist, advises young cou-
pies to wait until the war is over before
they marry.
The navy ruling is apparently based on
the theory that young officers and their
sweetheartS want to get married and,
with the future so uncertain, should be
allowed to do so now.
DR. Marden bases his advice on study
of world war marital conditions which
shows that marriages which followed
courtships during and Immediately after
the war resulted in a dispropOrtionate
number of divorces. He says war expert
ences intensity marital problems.
Dr. Marden may be eminently correct
in his research findings and sound in his
advice, but the navy's treatment of the
matter will get the endorsement of most
Americans. How many young couples
in love-in wartime or out-pay any at
tention to such considerations as the So
ciOlogical aspects of matrimonV?

DAILY SHOWER

If you have done siuch a thor
ough job of converting" your time
to wartime uses that you just can
not find time for a leisurely bath
every day, then speed up the daily
shower, but do set aside time for
one or two relaxing tubbings week

CAPITAL TALKS

WASHINGTON, April l3-(UPl-
The Guthrie caSe-remember it,

ing in a few days. this time before
the Truman committee inveStigat-
ing national defense Robert r..
Guthrie of New York and Paducah
Ky. will himself be the first wit

textile, clothing and leather goods
branch of the War Production
Board. There he battled for speed
ier conversion of the radio. refrig-
orator. wool. cotton duck and nylon
industries from civilian to war
goods manufacture.
Guthrie told this story in mid

of Waynesburg. Pa. The Faddis

witnesses before making any re-
port.
A third investigation of the
Guthrie case is the War Production
Boards own probe, being conducted
en- Donald NJ. Nelson's order by the
WPB chief counsel, John Lord
OBrian. Nelson has indicated that
the OBrisn report is about COM
pleted but went be made public
unless the Truman committee wants
to give it out
The Guthrie case has therefore
become a three-headed calf and
like all post mortems on Washing

prove much beyond the fact that it
died q horrible death and it is
dead.

NELSON DID 1T

The gkcSt of the Guthrie case is
officially laid by Nelson's new or
ders prohibiting the use of iron
and steel in hundreds of civilian
durable goods items, and confining
new construction to defense work
Those two orders signify that
American durable goods industries
are now we'll en- their way to total
conversion to war production and
therefore all this confusion stirred
up by the Guthrie case is a lot of
stuff ever the thing. What started
cut to be a surging flood of expose
on the SloWnesS and unwillingneSs
of private business to convert to
war effort now dries down tc a
mere ugly wet spot on the record of
mistakes that have gone before.
That happens so often. In the
current rubber investigation, it
looked at the beginning as though
an atten pit we're being made to
hang on Secretary of Commerce
Jesse Jones full responsibility for
American failure to build suffi-
NANhe otcshpiiCS Ol law llddNC
Der and for reluctance to develop
big enough synthetic rubber in
dustry. Jones was heard, and
the charges fixed out.
Before the Truman committee
therefore the second coming of
Guthrie will probably be nothing
more than a stepping stcle to other
thingc.
WERE WE PUSHED?
1t will be disclosed that some of
these industries were slow in con
Vertlng. The whole record of con-
version will be spread on the book,
from National Defense Advisory
Commission times. up through the
OFM era and on into the WPB ac-
tlVities OF today. Whether or not
there was any definite program for
conversion. or whether the country
Just drlfted into conversion will be
gone over.
What the whole thing will lead
up to is the moot question of dol
Iar-a-year men, and whether they
have hindered the defense pro-
gram more than they have helped
1t. This was one Of the first big
issues that faced Nelson when he
took over Craftsmanship of WPB.
lie appeared before the Truman
committee on this question and
asked fer time TO work out a
policy. The committee, expressing
confidence in Nelson, granted the
request.
Nelson will be the last witness to
az ear in the forthcoming Guthrie
hearings. If Guthrie and the man
who was his superior in WPB
Philip Reed board chairman of the
General Electric Company, give
any indication to the Truman com
mlttee that government responsi-
bllity cannot be put flto the hands
q executives retaining interests in
private business, then the whole
question of policy on dollar year
men Will be right back in Nelson's
lap, ard due for public airing

MATH CLASSES
 OPEN THURSDAY
Refresher Course for Fly= ing Cadets Offered Free
 at Crosby High

Dr. John G. Gilmartin, in charge of the educational work of the Refresher Courses for Flying Cadets, attributes the small registration in these courses to the weakness in mathematics of the majority of young men who would otherwise join them. In order to help this group he is going to start classes in the various branches of mathe- matics on Thursday of this week at the Crosby evening high school. h. asmuch as they will be run in con- junction with the regular evening school work, they will be free. Any one interested will register with Louis Thibodeau, who is in charge of Crosby evening high school.
 Dr. Gilmartin urges all men who contemplate joining Refresher Course later in this month or next month to avail themselves of the physical examination which will be held in New Britain at the Hotel Burritt, January 12 and 13, or at Conley Inn, Torrington, January IA, 15 and 16. Inasmuch as the medical examining board visited Waterbury three weeks ago, their next appear ance will not be for two or three months.

PENSION FUNDS
 MAY GET BONDS
Fire Trustees May Make Purchase After Sale of
 N. Y. City Certificates

Trustees of the fire department pension fund yesterday afternoon voted authorization to purchase U. s. government defense bonds after New York City bonds valued at S4 4,222 have been sold.
 Similar action may be taken by trustees of the police pension fund when they meet Wednesday. Fire Marshal Dennis Lahey is secretary of the fire board trustees.
 City Treasurer Serge Belanger recommended the Al shares of the city bonds of New York be sold at the market value which would bring S4,222 and the proceeds be invested in government defense bonds. He explained a decrease of SIS a year in revenue would result as the New York bonds yield per cent annually while the U. s. defense bonds only fetch 2la per cent.
 Despite this difference the board unanimously voted the change be effected to bolster the national de- lenses.
 Since the New York city bonds were bought at a price of S4,l00, at their present value of S4,222, the pension fund stood to clear profit of $122.
 T.le federal bonds will be of 8 12-Jear period and are sold at their faca value with interest paid semi annually. Bonds sold to the public at reduction pay no interest until their maturity 10 years hence.

George H. Freeman, clerk of the Superior Court, today made the following announcement in connection with the naturaliza- ton of enemy aliens In this country:
 "The clerk of the Superior Court has received a notice from the District Director of Natur- alizatiOn at Boston stating that no petition for naturalization filed by an enemy alien that is, Italian, German, or Austrian) can be called for a hearing ex- cept after 90 days notice given by the clerk to the COmmis- sioner of Immigration and Naturalization.
 This order will necessarily prevent any Italian, German, or or Austrian alien being granted his full papers at least until May, l942, but does not prevent his filing his first papers or an application for his second pap erS.'

HOFFMAN FINED
 ON TWO COUNTS
Driver in Fatal Auto Ace cident Enters Plea of
 Guilty Today

Frank M. Hoffman, Jr., 40, of 142 Atwood avenue, was fined $10O and costs on each of two counts of auto mobile homicide. at today's criminal session of superior court. The fine was imposed after the accused sub- stituted a plea of guilty for one of nolo contendere, entered earlier. Hoffman, signal man employed by the New Haven railroad, was held for the automobile death of Luigi Trosino, 62, of 730 Oakland avenue, last October Is.
 The substituted complaint was made when Judge Robert l.. Nun ger pointed out to counsel that ex- tenuating circumstances introduced on behalf of the accused, contra dicted the nolo contendere plea, and suggested that it be changed.
 John Lorusso, 31, of 131 Bishop street, was sentenced to sixty days in jail on statutory sex charge to which he pleaded guilty.
 Suspended sentences of six months each were meted out to two youths, wanted by military officials for being absent without leave. Wilfred Provencher, 21, of 32 Canal street, charged with using a motor vehicle without permission, and William Grefka, g, of Lawrence, Mass, charged with theft of $130, were the two accused. Both will be turned over to army officials.

Local Boy Delights Bur- lesk Audience in Roles of
 Singer, Straightman

Mar1ane, lovely-to-look-at stripper who would rather bowl than eat, bowls 'em over with two speciality numbers in this weeks burlesque attraction at Jacques Theater, fea- turing Waterbury's own, Jimmy Cav- anaugh as straight man and singer.
 The glamor girl from Texas is most convincing that Texans know their stuff. Now she also knows the Brass City of the World appreciates art, for her offerings draw much deserved applause. Brunette Phyllis Vaughn, stripper, also pleases in capital letters and adds to her pres tige with a grand job as straight woman in several sketches.
 Comedian Bobby Morris, though quite diminutive, makes up for his size with his ability to provoke laughs. Very able as comical danc- CT Bobby does his job in masterful fashion. The other comedian, Eddie Innes, is second to Bobby as an en- tertainer, but really does a grand job impersonating Eddie Cantor in one of his many sketches.
 Frank Scannell knows his busi- ness as straight man and proves ex- perience makes a good snowman. Harry and Larry Raymond, whistlers deluxe, offer speciality number that's little different and do very well by themselves as far as their listeners are = acerned. Rounding out the well-L,-anced program are the capable dancers, Winak and Mae, who appear in single and dou- ble numbers easy to watch
 Jimmy Cavane:lgh has much better role in this show than ip his initial appearance here several weeks ago with linda Wassau's show. He makes dandy straight man for the bullet-eating Morris and, as usual, his tantalizing vocals of several popular melodies go over in a big way.
