NEW TRUCK IS
 ALMOST READY
Due to Be Put in Service Next Week, Says
 Chief
--NEA Telephoto

Naugatuck, Aug. 13 = The new fire truck will probably be placed into actual service early next week, Fire Chief John J. Sheridan said today. A report from the under writers, who tested it yesterday, is expected in a few days and Chief Sheridan feels that after this is re- ceived, approval by the fire commit tee of the board of warden and bur- gesses, and by the warden, will fol- low quickly.
 Chief Sheridan said although a bell was ordered as part of the equipment, none was sent, horn being sent instead. The chief feels bell would also be advisable and as there is a spare one here, it will be placed on the machine.
 Chromium parts on the machine, now covered by various materials as the result of government regulations will be exposed and polished up, MT. Sheridan said. The bumper in the tests far exceeded the require ments of the underwriters, and there is no doubt of their approval. Warden Leo J. Brophy, Burgess J. Francis Cullen and Chief Sheridan, witnessed the tests, which was made at Bears pond, Prospect.

JAMES MOONAN
 TURNS WRITER
Factory Training Director Makes August Issue of
 New 'US' Magazine

Naugatuck, Aug. 13-Jim Noonan, director of training at the United States Rubber Company plant here, has turned writer.
 Tn the August issue of US, pulp liShed by and for all the people of the U. s. Rubber Company, Jim writes as follows:
 In 1918 it was not the front line fighting organization of Germany that failed. It was the lines behind the lines of production and civil ian stamina. m this war, the power of our lines of production-and civ- ilian spirit-will be deciding factors.
 Too often we think, Nothing can happen to this great country; our total strength is so great that we are bound to overwhelm our en- emies"; but we must remember that our strength is only the sum total of the strength of each individual and that means each one of us.
 It is team work that will win this war The personal example of each of us will influence others, the working knowledge and skill of each one of us is very important to all, our spirit and helpfulness in per- sonal relations with each other will help all. We must share the best that is in us and keep it up to be sure of winning to our goal.
 The goal for which each one Of US is working is human freedom. It is the lack of personal freedom Ill other countries and the lack of de- termination in other peoples to stand up and insist upon it that is | the whole cause of our troubles to- day. We are bending our efforts for increased production of whatever we are making but we are not work ing merely for the sake of the prod uct but for what our product will do in Freedoms cause.-the cause of America.
 With all it's blackness, War, itself, does remind us that ideals are the most important things in life. Men who have been accustomed to scoff at ideals are aware today that ideals are the most powerful forces in hu- man nature, and that the principle of human freedom is the greatest of all.
 We, in all production plants and offices, are working for the same ideals as those going into the firing line. The only difference Is that we, in production, have to work harder to keep our purpose wildly before our minds. In the Army, a man Is never allowed to forget 1t. Tn the factory we have no military sights and sounds and actions going on about us twenty-four hours day to remind us constantly of our purpose Yet, upon our work depends the lives and the success of our coun- trymen in action at the front. Upon us, as upon them, depends the win- ming of this war and the realization of all our ideals of freedom. That is something we must never forget.
