Hard Truth Driven Home

Wars are not won with brave words
and stirring bands. Wars are won with
deeds. Wars are won with production.
Wars are won through the full, uncom-
promising cooperation of government, Of
labor, of industry and of all the people.
Our war will be won or lost on the home
front. Victory depends on whether we
can make and deliver the endless guam
titles of planes and ships and guns and
ammunition that our troops and our
Allies so sorely need.
DiSgraceful labor disputes have cost
our military forces untold quantities of
weapons - and the lives of many men.
Petty officialism has played politics while
war RACES throughout the world, and
slowed production still more. Bogus
reformers have hampered and reviled in
dustry at time when our greatest need
was machines and tools, not ideologies.
The people of this nation are now de-
handing in no uncertain voice that gov
eminent, industry and labor cooperate so
that productive enterprises OF this nation
- the plane and tank factories, the
motor plants the oil and metal and coal
industries the power plants which mo-
tivate the machines of industry can
turn the blueprints of war needs into
realities.
The disasters in the Pacific show what
we may expect in the future unless we
change the piddling policies of the past

meaning and unity to this world would
be tlnthinkable. Yet here he is, saying
goodbye. The scene is, in way, even
more poignant than Washington'S fare
we'll. For then the war was over; they
had fought the good fight together, and
had won Macarthur leaves his men IN
the thick Of battle; 1t is hard for them
and for him to swallow. But the good
soldier always obeys.
1t will be bad news for the JapS that
Macarthur has escaped" They know
that if anyone can reverse the fatal
defense psychology" into which the allied
commanders seem to have fallen in the
Far East Macarthur is the man - offenSe
is his byword. "When in doubt, attack"
well might be MacArthur'S motto. He
champs at inaction. In France where
he commanded the Rainbow Division,

tured eight Germans He helped his men

was the rule, his courage was the domi-
nant feature, He was twice wounded,
and he was gassed, and won eight rows OF

Hundred Days" already have taken their
place with the Alamo, Thermopylae and
the other immortal stands of hopeless but
undaunted men. Whatever is accom-
plished by the men he left behind will
give them greater glory than ever before
for their task is doubly hard now that
they have lost their leader.

Watch Your Plates

The War Production Board continuing
its crusade against waste of materials
that are vital to defense manufactur-
ing has placed a ban on the issuance OF
new metal tags or plates. That means
your current license plates must last un-
til the war is over and raw materials can
be diverted to domestic purposes. To us
here in Connecticut the order isn't too
drastic for we we're more or less COM
mitted to policy of conserving our license
plates until they have been virtually
ruined.
Other states will now be forced to fol-
low Connecticut's example in issuing
small insetS every year for use on regis
tration plates We like it in this state;
we don't doubt others will come to like 1t,
too. And it will conserve metal. In
addition to that the family pooch Will
probably have to get along with his pres
ent license tag for long time to come:
Hunters and fishermen who are required
to display metal license will continue to
use the same one for some time to come.
These aren't real hardships and de-
rnand little or no sacrifice on the part OF
anyone. They do enable us to do some
thing for the about war effort. If there
are more such every loyal American Will
be glad to join -heartedly in coop
Grating. That's one way we can win the
war and get our boys home from foreign
battle fronts

A Good Soldier Obeys

Douglas MacArthurs Hundred Days"
in the Philippines are history. The
Battle of Bataan goes on, but the soldier
whose genius and daring enshrlned his
name in the heart of every American,
has gone to another task. The good
soldier always obeys. President RooSeveltS
order for General Macarthur to leave MS
gallant band of FilipinoS and Americans
on Bataan must have been hard, indeed,
for him to obey. 1t is not for the good
soldier, however, to question orders =
particularly his commander-ln-cnlelS.
And the cornmander-in-chie regarded it as
considerably more important right now,
that the genius of Macarthur be used IN
Australia
What a scene his leavetaking must
have been! We do not yet know what, II
anything, was said, or took place, between
him and the men he was leaving. But 1t Is
easy for every American to imagine the
drama of the situation. Here are the
Smoke begrimed" men who had chung TO

that poor, bedeviled General Homn1a, deS-

despite his great superiority in numbers,

is the leader who, working against time,
had trained them for this very day =
whose Shrewd foresightednesS had

Increase Supplies

The State Health Department has urged
all communities to increase as much as
possible their existing water supplies.
Oddly enough this comes at time when
a good many of them have done this or
are doing so or plan to do So HartfordS
metropolitan water district has been
greatly amplified during the last few
years. Here in Waterbury our water
projects are new reservoir and dam,
plus an additional pipe line. Both of
these assure great sections of the state
an adequate supply of water for many
years to come.
Incidentally in both instances there is
every indication that not merely will
Waterbury and Hartford benefit by eX-
banded water facilities, but surrounding
towns. Hartford's metropolitan district
is considerable today and may grow to
greater proportions in the days to come.
Waterbury sells water already to a sec
ton of Middlebury, but with the new pipe
line running down through WatertoWn
and Oakville, there is likelihood that
either or both of these communities may
be ultimate consumers.
The main reason for Health Depart
ment concern in existing water supplies
is the fact that the last few years have
seen many reservoirs almost depleted due
to drought conditions. Even this past
winter ponds and lakes were low. OF re-
cent days, of course, heavy rains have
helped to swell them, but there is the
evsE-present danger of droughts depict
ing these supplies to the point where
communities are faced with a water fam
inc that would be extremely disastrous
in these war times.

did before. He has repeatedly
clashed with subordinates seeking
to speed up conversion to war pro-
duction and privately there is
very strong feeling against him
among the all-outers.
Harrison, Nelson recently had
to slap down publicly when he
put out a statement that the
huge ship building program
could not be met because Of the
scarcity Of materials. Nelson re-
tOrted that the program could
and would be met and no more
has been heard from Harrison.
He is also charged by the ALL
cutters with pussyfooting on con-
version and not compelling great
er use OF machinery and equip
ment.
RosenWald has an enormous
staff. They are so numerous they
fall over one another. But while
thousands of tons of scrap are
to be found on every hand all
over the country, steel mills are
closing down for lack Of the metal;
and the output Of tanks, guns and
ships Is seriously threatened.
Insiders rate ROSenwald's d.
vision the sOurest in WPB. He
Is charged with lack Of drive,
executive capacity and imagina-
ton. When bold plan Is sub
mitted TO him, he recOils In
horror. II took weeks to get
him 70 sanction fOFceful meas
ures against junk dealer who
was holding 1901 tons Of scrap
for prOfiteering prices.
Rosenwald fiddled around for
several months on a way to COL
lect the vast quantities Of scrap
to be found in farmers barns and
yards. In "a hours a young
movie executive, who had been
called in on the problem by
other WPB chiefs, produced a SIM
pie and practical plan to do the
job by using the WPA.
The inside word is that Reed
and Rosenwald are slated for the
axe. It's long overdue.

The greatest private income in the
world is now believed to be that Of Adolf
Hitler, monarch of all he surveys from his
perch in Germany. AS sole owner of the
central Verlag, which he acquired by
means not too ethical as we view it here
in America, his company is reputed to
have an annual income of from % to 40
millions. The central Verlag controls al
most everything that relates to the
printed word throughout Germany No
doubt if everything goes well this control
will be spread through the countries
where the Nazi heel has trod the heaviest.
However, there's apparently a mystery
about Hitler's income, because no one
knows what he does with the money he
personally derives from his publishing

such a course by compelling profit

hampered and overruled by dollar

more interested in protecting the

have no written proof at all
OF his existence in our tree,
I only know I hear him call
When some one speaks about the sea.
1 cannot trace him through the ink
OF family records, yet feel
Between us two there is a link
Forged of sterner stuff than steel.
I sense him when the wind Is high,
pulsing challenge spurs me out
I seem to see the white sails fly,
seem to hear his hearty shout.
I have no legal right to claim
The blood of one bred to the sea,
Yet he is closer than my name
And real as my own heart to me.

Is not this the right time to help

strengthen them all by promoting
