5O96 REDUCTION IN
 AUTO FATALITIES
June Mileage Data to Be Studied for General Re-
 suits in State

While Connecticut traffic fatal ities decreased by 509o during last month as compared with June, 1941. Commissioner John T. Mc- Carthy emphasizes in statement regarding current traffic accident experience that this sharp reduc- ton is only in line with the pre- sumed drop in highway travel brought about by federal restric- tions on gasoline use.
 Motor travel was responsible for 20 deaths last month" Commis- sioner Mccarthy said, which con- pares very favorably, of course with the 40-case experience record ed for June last year. The impor- tant feature of our entire traffic ac- cident experience, however, is not the totals, large or small. but the rate of incidence based on expos ure.
 This is commonly assumed to be motor vehicle mileage. Last June the Connecticut traffic fatality rate was 8.8 cases per hundred million miles of motor vehicle travel. This year, if the travel was less by half as is commonly presumed, the fatal- ity rate per hundred million miles of travel would be about the same as for June last year. It will be interesting to compare the rate when the June mileage data is available"
 The fatality rate for the calendar year 1941 was 8.1.

WIPE AGENCY IN
 NEW LOCATION
Bureau of Construction Moves From Hartford to
 Empire Building

Hartford, July 3-The bureau of construction, war production board, which as its name indicates has charge of construction activities and matters which relate to build ing and housing, has moved to New York and established headquarters in the Empire State Building, it was announced today by the Hart ford branch information office OPM, 119 Ann street.
 The bureau is divided into five operating branches: the project analysis branch, material control, project service, housing and consul tation branch. Project analysis handles all applications for private construction and recommends prir ority ratings for them and admin isters limitation orders and conser- vation orders covering construction. Guided by criteria established by the bureau of industrial conserva- tion, the materials control branch reviews the use of materials in projects which have been designated as essential by the project analysis branch, and applies these princi- pies to insure a minimum of critical materials.
 The project service branch works closely with industry and with the army, navy, defense plant corpora ton and other government agen- cies, giving what service is needed to eliminate construction delays. It advises and assists these groups on design and construction matters including the procurement and ex- pediting of needed materials.
 The housing branch recommends priority for publicly and privately financed war housing. The consul tation branch sets as liaison be- tween the public and the bureau. It interprets the needs and prob lems of the construction industry and recommends procedures con- sistent with the overall war pro- gram.
 All contacts with federal, state and local governments and agen- cies in regard to applications con- corning their construction projects are the function of the bureau of governmental requirements. under the direction of Maury Maverick. This branch, part of the division of industry operations, WIPE, will remain in Washington.
 Applications for farm buildings, either agricultural or residential, should be filed with the local coun- ty and state war boards of the US. department of agricultural, hwich recommend essential building to the bureau of construction for approval. Application for residential building, other than on farms, should be filed with the local FILA office, as should publicly and privately financed de- fense housing programs.
 Applications for commercial and other construction should be filed directly with the bureau of con- struction. Correspondence concern ing projects handled by the bureau of construction should be addressed war production board, bureau cs construction, Empire State building New York, N. Y.

Winner Announced In
 Elks Cartoon Contest
2OYear=Old Public Relations Officer at Air Training Center Draws Best Appeal for ''Write Elm Letter.
Copyright lo42. B.P. o. ELKs

submitted at the 50 camps and bases which participated in the cartoon contest phase of the Write Elm a Letter" program. Each cartoon re- fleets the desire of the men in the armed forces to receive more mail from family and friends at home and 13 of the best drawings will be reproduced in more than $50 daily newspapers throughout the nation in the effort to impress the public with the morale building values of increased correspondence.
 Sergeant O'Brien, who enlisted in the Army when he was 18, started drawing in high school because using his own words-studying was too much trouble and art classes presented the line of least resistance. He began drawing cartoons for the post publication at Moffett Field sold few to magazines and decided drawing could be mildly profitable as well as fun. He considers the only good thing he ever did was a cartoon shortly after the war began which consisted of Japanese sol- dier's face ringed in 8 gunsight and captioned, Remember Pearl Harbor Keep Elm Dying" It was used by the Associated Press.
 He is the son of Mrs. Elizabeth Meller of Los Angeles and was mar ried six months ago to a charming little girl from Palo Alto. Sergeant O'Brien says his one big ambition is to learn to be a cartoonist-but that was before he learned he had won first prize in the Elks Write Elm Letter" program.

MEMOS OF A GIRL FRIDAY
 Dear MT. w.; We had the tip on Madeleine Carroll's secret marriage to Stirling Hayden on Macrh 30. I believe that was the first mention. -. Looks like Martha Kaye won't get her divorce, after all. Her estranged husband is in the army and simply hasn't the time to oblige her. Dashiell Hammett says both you and Skolsky wronged him. He never used the line Hes Q wolf in ships clothing" in the scenario mentioned. Apparently the additional dialog writers in H'wood Inserted it. !. Youthful King Peter of Yugo-Slavia arrives today at the Waldorf. A detective was beaten up outside Q midtown night club SO watch for fireworks. Those 3 Saboteurs patronized Club 18 at least three times. Wonder what they thought about when the com- edians did that devastating satire on Adolf? A barred from the 6tork Club patron sold saboteur Kerling yacht in 1899.
 An outstanding article is Hanson Baldwin's brilliant summary and analysis of America at war in Foreign Affairs" .. They are call ing H.

1t was not threatened So the day became merely an excuse for little fun.
 Then people began, some years ago, to talk about "quiet Fourth" and before long, in fact the Fourth was quiet. It might have been imagined that this was to prepare Us for giving the day serious mean ing again.
 The Fourth swept and garnished for some thing else to enter in and perhaps this also meant that we were coming of age as a nation. And then before we knew it, our country once more in danger, and we began to appreciate political freedom.
 Much more, we felt again, as the fathers of the republic felt that in order to reap the blessings of freedom we must take pains to support it. Patriotic feeling revived in millions of hearts ard minds that had scarcely felt it before; and the Fourth of July once more began to have the meaning that it had
