POLICE CHALLENGE
 DRIVERS STATUS
No Serious Violations Re. ported Here as Checkup
 Gets Underway

Adequate reasons Tor driving on city streets last night were offered by upwards of 100 motorists, inter- rogated by Patrolmerl Joseph Dun- phy and John Sasso, as the pleas driving ban went into effect, The officers stoprrd automobiles in Exchange Place, and inquired why the vehicle was in use. No violations were reported.
 For the second successive night, city traffic was remarkably light, although numerous cars wire parked on Bank and Grand streets. Parking on East and West Main streets also showed an increase over Thursday night. Parking spaces throughout the city were practical Iy deserted. .
 A variety of answers was received by the patrolmen during their in- quiries, but most replies were given in good faith, they indicated. One notorist had just taken an ailing relative to the railroad station, arl- other was moving household goods from Waterbury to Naugatuck, whilO a good many were either going to or coming from work.
 superintendent Daniel J. Carson said yesterday that 1t will be dif- ficult indeed for local police of- ficiaIs to enforce the OPi4 regula- tions, since the question .and-arl- swer method leaves the driver free to ndsrepresent his mission. The supe .intendent of police pointed out that best results will probably be obtained from continual cheeks on parking spaces and curbs r in the amusement area. Superintendent Carson expressed satisfaction today with the way Waterburians are CO., operating with the restrictions.

industries devoted entirely to war production and hundreds of others in war-connected clerical positions The remaining three nurseries will be at Medford, oregon, where the labor shortage is so acute that large numbers of women workers are en- gagged in full-time employment.
 In EVA Region war nurseries or day care centers are operating in or applications for Lanham Act funds are pending, from Hartford Bridgeport, Bristol, Groton, Farm ington, Middletown New Britain Waterbury. West Haven and Wind- ham in Connecticut, ard Water town, Roslyn and Lockport in New York.
 Tn addition there are dozens oi nurseries started as Work Projects Administration projects in Rhode Island, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania which will be converted to LanhanI Act projects in connection with the liquidation of the WPA program Any danger to the continuity oi war production which might be en. tailed by time lag between the closing of a WPA nursery or center and the establishment of a new one financed from Lanfam Act funds will thus be eliminated, according to Dr. Dorothy Bird Nysmande supervisor of War Public Service Projects, in this EVA Region.
 Sliding Scale
 Fees will be charged at the nur- sery schools and child care centers according to Mrs. Florence Kerr special assistant to the Federal Works Administrator, and will be arranged on a sliding scale basis in accordance with the parents ability to pay. The money so received will be used to buy food which the EVA does not supply. Mrs. Kerr explained the war nurseries provide care fol children under five, while the cen ters provide supplemental care aIle supervision before and after schoo and on school holidays for 5-to-i. year old children of working mothers.

Military Secrets! Office of War Information Recognizes Americans Right to Own Opinions, Freedom to Heckle Lives Depend on Military, Naval
 Secrets-So Don't Talk!

Military secrets will be in danger unless the public understands that every American has an important part in guarding wartime knowledge, the Office of War Information said today. Ship losses that have cost seamen's lives give evidence. OWI declared, that some Americans have talked too much. The suggested remedy is a realization of the in. dividual's role and the use of more caution by everybody.
 we can't leave 1t to the Govern ment to keep the enemy guessing about the things he wants to know OWI explained, For the Govern ment is not the only possessor of knowledge. In country like ours. where every person is his own judge of what he shall listen to or what he shall say, it follows that each must be his own security officer.
 Every man and woman has the same responsibility over information as the OWI staff. and the same kind of advice that is given OW1 workers is just as apt for the pub- lie.
 Don't Aid Enemy
 Don't give the enemy the benefit of the doubt. The fact that vol have learned something as part O a routine job or heard 1t in casua conversation or read 1t in a lettel that bears no seal of official secre cy doesn't mean 1t isn't important Nor does that mean the enemy nee. essarily can find 1t out unless yol pass the work along.
 Even the presence of ship 1T harbor, where many can see ane recognize it, the transit of a loao of tanks, known along the railroad the arrival of a certain expert ii, the factory where he is observed by hundreds of workers, may escape the eye of the enemy if you keep your own counsel. He can't be everywhere"

equipment, fence material, and de- perately needs more and better wa- tering facilities, as well as plenty of protein supplement and medical supplies. We all sincerely hope our government comes to realization of these facts and makes a desperate effort to direct some of this mer- chandise our way t..
 "A compilation of the farmers needs, as shown in these answers, follows along the lines of the above letter very closely.
 "One plan offered by the Metro politan to tenant farmers provides for a fixed sum for caring for the sows and hogs", continued MT. Rog- CTS, land also offers them a share in the pigs produced; they can sell these hogs in the open market or dispose of them to us at a stipulated price ard we will fatten and mar ket them. A second plan provides for sharing of the feed costs equally and a division of the proceeds.
 Farmers of South Dakota are particularly interested in getting into the hog raising business. They see where they can again become established in the hog business after having suffered severely in the drouth period of few years ago.
 "In Missouri, many farmers who farrowed few sows they could keep without special hog houses, are in- terested in adding to the number oi hogs they raised in former years ard this interest will probably carry on as a definite part of their farm work, when they secure proper housing and accommodations fo, increased hog breeding and feeding.
 Government Aids
 "The Department of Agriculture has guaranteed a price of $13.25 a hundred for hogs until September 1944. This means that the efficient feeder can get the equivalent of about $l.25 per bushel for the corn he raises ard uses as feed and which he would have to sell at 75 to 80 cents a bushel in the market at this time. It alo means that the farmer in doing this work will improve his farm and perform a patriotic work for his country" ...
 MT. Rogers has made a name for himself in his work of rehabilitating rundown farms, which the Metro politan was forced to take over on mortgages during the depression, and disposing of them to men really interested in farimng. In fact, many of his plans for improving the land have been adapted by the govern ment to its work with the farmer. His latest plan of increasing the production of hogs has attracted the attention of many residents of rural communities and farmers other than tenants on Metropolitan farms have become more interested in hog raising after hearing of this plan.

part time position, paying an ana nual salary of S2,5O0. '
 The report, as filed with Judges John r. Gaffney and T. E. Conway, follows in part:
 "Your Honors will note that there has been 8 considerable decrease of those probationers who were re- quired to pay their fines and costs, at this office. At present there are only eight active cases of such per- sons as compared with forty-twc such cases at the start of last year The court has felt that seldom has probation been necessary in thess types of cases because of improved working conditions and increasec wages.
 During the past six months there has been a slight increase of juve-, nile crime, particularly among, youths between the ages of sixteen, and twenty. Except in two instanc- es, these youths appeared before this Court for the. first time. On ir- vestigation of their home erviron- ment 1t was found that these crimes were undoubtedly committed because of prental neglect and lack of prop CT parental discipline and supervi-i sion in most cases. The parents of many of these children had them. selves heen brought before Court on one. or more occasions. Ex-. cept in two cases, probation was rec commended and their energies having been directed toward productive eg ' forts and healthful recreation 1t is, unlikely that there will be a repea- tion of misconduct on their part.
 "In cases involving domestic dif- faculties, those who are habitual and excessive drinkers have been the most numerous and worse offenders Where drinking was not the chief or contributing cause of such dif- ficulty, martial differences or mt l. adjustments could be corrected and reconciliation of the parties could be effected. But where liquor wa involved, constant supervision of the offending party wss required and reconciliation here would only last as long as the drinking party would abstain from the use of intoxicating liquors. Such abstent'on did not last for any lengthy period of time ill most cases.
 "In some cases of marital diffi- culties where the offending party would spend all or most of his was- es for liquor because of his drinking proclivities, solution might be Ina 7 if the wages accru'ng to such party could be obtained from the employ CT by the family of such party or bs' this office. There is no present method by which this can be dor j except by 'olition of the offeni- !ng party and this is seldom given

large rise in the number filed has been noted. Various other scars, such as appendectomy, hernia, and thyroid also are listed in numerous waivers. Among other defects which appear commonly are cardiac con- ditions, defective vision. high blood pressure, and hardening of the arteries.
 Persons who sign waivers indicate they will not seek compensation as result of injuries that involve the listed ailments or disabilities. Fil- ing of the pre-employment forms are a requisite to employment in the majority of industrial plants.
 So far this year, in five office days, 40 waivers have been handled here, indicating the number will continue to be high. Last Noveri1- Der the offlce's monthly record was broken when 1891 papers were re- turned. The high for the previous year was 579.
 The number of voluntary agree ments meanwhile increased by 290 during the year. A total of 2,205 agreements, either for weekly pay ment during disability or for spe- cif1c payments in case of perma- nent injury, were approved by the commission in 1922 as compared to 1915 in 1941.

New York, January g. With Presidential approval of 39 war nurseries and day care centers for children of working mothers, the largest group of projects yet to be approved at a single time under the Federal Works Agency's child care program, Major General Philip B.. Fleming, Federal Works Adminis- trator, has instructed Regional Di- rector John M. Gallagher to give applications for these projects first priority" in the New York Regional Office.
 Lanham Act
 Similar instructions have been sent by MT. Gallagher to the WPA Administrators in each of the New England States, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, compris- ing EVA Region 1. The admins tartors were assured that where a WPA nursery and child care center is eligible for financing with Lan- ham Act funds it will be operated until arrangements can be made for new sponsorship even though WPA may have closed out all other projects operations in any given state.
 Application for nursery schools and child care centerS to continue WPA nursery schools in war af- fected areas or for new nursery schools in these areas, must be given prompt attention at all review levels" MT. Gallagher said. "The admin istrator considers this type of project to have first priority and they should be accorded preferen- tial treatment in your offices.
 "The preparation of these projects can now be expedited by suspension of the practice of requiring com munity requesting Lanham Act War Public Service funds to certify its financial inability to provide the necessary facilities for the care of the children of working mothers. Previous requirements have been waived to meet urgent needs where a community is operating on a bud get in which no provision as yet has been made for nursery schools. AS a result early approval of hundreds of nurseries and child care eenters in all parts of the country Is eS- pected."

This seat, on the aisle, allows him to work as teller on the minority side with a minimum of moving. Rep. John A. Membrino of Waterbury is to be placed three seats away from Minority Leader T..

Increase in employment oppor- 'tunities and replacement of young men by older persons and those not previously in the labor field are be- lieved to be the main reasons for the increase.
