| genius. Watch more overhead
cranes, more rolling mills, cutting,
stretching, pressing, heating, COOL
ing. At last the sheet is ready for
inspection and shipment. Your cars
speedometer shows you've driven
nearly three miles.
At the end Of the drive you see,
packed and ready for shipping, a
sizeable stockpile Of finished sheet.
None Is sent out except by Army
orders. The existence of this stock
pile is visual proof that the alum
mum botleneck, In sheet fabricating,
a least, Is not now existent.
Such Is the size Of one Of the
monster new plants In which Amer
lea is tashioning the weapons for
democracy's arsenal. This plant is
not yet producing at even near-ca-
pacity. For II was built ahead Of
schedule, and the new government
financed feeder plants now being
built are not yet ready to supply it
with pig. When 1t Is running at top
speed, perhaps by years end, the
Aluminium Company alone will be
producing aluminium at a rate Of
fifty times as fast as 1t did before
1889.
Even that is not all. The ends
Of this roughly U-shaped plant look
unfinished. They are. They were
closed off with sheets Of corrugated
sheet steel, easy to tear down for
future expansion.

One OF the most eminent of these
scholarly 1aborers in the popular
song vineyard is Domenic SAVING
who composed a good deal Of the
music that went into the first
sound pictures. A dapper gray
haired man, SAVINGS unimpeach-
able musical background includes
graduation from Conservatory San
Pietro Maiella In Naples. He
played with and conducted string
ensembles before joining the Rob-
bins Music Arms. In addition he
composed several symphonies and
many shorter salon works Of con-
siderable popularity.
Admittedly some popular songs
sound peculiar but even these seem
to have a public. Thus Savino-and
the others in his specialized field
long ago stopped trying to change
the nations tastes. All they do Is
establish the harmonic integrity OF
the finished arrangement - and
wonder whatever did happen to
good old point and counetrpoint.

This is night club which has pros

Dressed in overalls he shepherds
the diners into games like musical

Knoxville, Tenn, June LIN the
shadow of the Great Smoky Noun
tairs, on rich rolling land, which for
years has been synonymous with ag-
riculture, America Is winning the
battle Of industrial production
On the red clay Of a levelled of
hilltop, the Aluminium Company OF
America has built gigantic new
plant which has smashed, for the
present, at least, the bottleneck in
aluminium production
PLANTS SIZE Is
MILITARY SECRET
The exact size of this gargantuan
factory Is a military secret, yet it
will give the enemy anything but
comfort to ponder these generaii-
ties:
So vast is this plant that, from
pig to product, aluminium travels
three miles under Its roof.
A little over a year ago this site
was just another grassy hilltop Of
the Tennessee Valley. Plans for the
plant, built as part of the Alumni
mum Company,s $215 100000 self-fi-
nanced war expansion program,
were first discussed in November,
1910. A year and quarter later the
giant overhead cranes within the
factory were starting the first huge
ingots Of aluminium rolling through
the fabricating mills.
Here Is one building, watching
aluminium pig become aluminium
sheet, you can see the United Ma
lions marching to victroy. The
tough, lightweight metal that is
here kneaded and pounded into
shape Is building the planes and
ships that will dictate the armistice.
NEARBY PLANT
PRODUCES METAL PIGS
The aluminium pig itself is pro-
duced in a nearby plant. "Alumina,"
the finely-powdered, whiteish lore"
from which aluminium is refined, is
obtained by chemical processes from
bauXite in the earths crust.
In huge electric furnaces, called
reduction pots" tile alumina Is
broken by an electrolytic process In
to its component parts, aluminium
ant oxygen, by means Of molten
cryolite bath through which q pow
erful electric current passes. The
oxygen Is burned off, and the alum
mum Is poured into pigs. The pig is
shipped to the mammoth new plant.
Now hop into a midget car and
follow the path of this pig inside Of
the factFoy as it Is melted and and
cooled, squashed and squeezed, cut
and trimmed into fighting weight.
First it is melted for pouring in
to ingots. You have to step on the

MORE GASOLINE
TO Be ALLOTTED
Employees Engaged in War
Production Permitted to
File New Applications

Arrangements have been COM
pleted whereby workers in four oil
the city,s largest factories may ape
ply for supplemental allotments Of
gasoline directly through their en-
ployers. The factories are the Sco-
viii Mfg. Co., the Chase Brass &
Copper Co. the American Brass
Co., and the Waterbury Farrell
Foundry & Machine Co.
Workers at these plants who find
that their present gas allotments
are not sufac!ent for their neces-
sary driving may apply through the
management for additional ration
cards.
Chairman Lawrence l.. Lewis Of
the ratoning board pointed out
over the weekend that approx
mately $50 TX" cards are held IL
legally by local motorists. He
warned that they should be turned
in before proceedings against the
holders are started.

THE BEE

The little bee just keeps at work
From dawn until the night.
He visits all the sweetest flowers
And always works with all his might.
And when he gets his fill Of honey
He goes straight back to the little hive,
And sees that all the other bees
Are always fed, and kept alive.
And all the drones neer forgot,
There always are such ones YOU know,
Who, never seem to Like to work,
They're quickly killed right on the spot.
The queen is always watching,
From her little throne Of sweet
To see that nothing ever does go wrong,
Whoever she might chance to greet.
They still keep working on and on
Throughout each pleasant day,
And always draw that straight bee line,
When returning BY the way.
Like the little bee keep busy
And keep doing all the time,
Wherever you may chance to be
And ell the. clouds win shine.

Voters League
 Drafts 'Yordsticks'

"Your Congressmans' Voting Rec- ord on Significant Issues", c "Quiz for Voters Who Want to be Effec- Nve," and yardsticks for evaluating would be candidates for Congress were the tools sent today by Mrs. John G. Lee, president of the Con- necticut League of Women Voters, to the presidents of the 70 local Leagues of Women Voters through out the state, for their use as 6 service to the voters in their dis- tr1ctS in connection with the Leagues current campaign for ca- pablo legislators.
 "All possible additional informa- ton about candidates, their ex- perience and their opinions, will be furnished as the campaign pro- gresses," Mrs. Lee told the local of- ficers. "Oura deep concern and our mutual effort for the next few months must be to do our part in electing to the 7sth Congress men who measure up to its tremendous responsibilities"
 In order to play its part prac- uca1ly in the campaign, while main taining its traditional policy of not endorsing particular candidates, the League is working on two lines: urging increased party enrolment so that voters may work through the parties to help nominate candidates who meet the tests, and making vocal and effective the mounting tide of public opinion which de- mandS a congress which will put fighting the war to a complete vic. tory ahead of all other conSidera- tions, partisan, sectional or personal, thus making possible freedom for all peoples, and a just and lasting peace.
 The yardsticks or tests for con- gressmen, which were adopted by the State Leagues board of direc- tors last week, are:
 1. Men of integrity and intelN- gence.
 2. Men who will reject any pro- poSal for 6 premature and compro-
 mise peace.
 3. Men who believe that the United States must play a respon- Sible part in & world order which will eventually include all peoples regardless of race, religion or po- litical persuasion.
 {. Men whose approach to domes- tic issues is in the public interest as against that of sectional, econ- omic or other groups.
