Emmett said last night, the Jamai-
can workers in this country are
doing exceptionally well and have
received commentator from their
camp superintendent as fine
workers.
The Bishop will visit Connecticut
camps at Portland, Windsor, and
Somers within the next few days,
then continue his tour through the
camps of New Jersey, New York,
Michigan, and Idaho. He plans to
study housing and working condi-
tons at all these camps, and offer
suggestions for improvements. He
will also serve as good will am
basSador" in his visits with the ia
maican laborerS.
The Jamaicans were imported to
this country under a program spon-
sored by the Farm Security Admin
istration, after officials of the U. S.
Fruit Company had secured the con-
sent of the Jesuit mission to assist
IN recruiting men. They are living
in camps here, in which complete
communities are being constructed,
with living quarters, mess halls, and
recreational halls. It is also hoped
that the workers will develop self
government systems. The workers
receive the prevailing wage of the
area in which they are employed.
Bishop Emmett visits this country
every year to ordain Jesuit priests
In the New England area, although
this is his first visit to Waterbury.
The bishop is now celebrating his
5Oth anniversary as member of
the Society of Jesus. He was Or
dained at Woodstock, College, Mary
land; served for a period as president
OF the Georgetown preparatory
school and was consecrated vicar
apostolic of Jamaica in 1890
Fir. Leroy is graduate of Crosby
High school, Shadowbrook Semi
nary, Weston College, and Boston
College. He joined the Jesuit order
in 1928, and taught at st. Georges
College, Jamaica, for three years,
before joining with Bishop Emmett
in 1898.
Both Bishop Emmett and Father
Leroy serve as auxiliary chaplains
of the American armed forces in the
Caribbean.

MORE POINTS FOR
HAMBURGER ASKED
Fewer to Be Required for
Certain Cuts of Pork,
Lamb and Veal

Washington, June 3.-CUP)-
Housewives will have to give up from
one to four points more for bee.
steaks, roasts, hamburger and driec
beef beginning Sunday, the Office Of
Price Administration announced to-
day.
Fewer points will be required fol
certain cuts of pork, lamb and veal
however and for sausage and variety
meats.
Beef steaks of all cuts except
chuck or shoulder were increased
three points on the new table. with
homeless sirloin and all round and
flank steaks going up to IL points a
pound. Chuck steak went up one
point. All roaSts were increased two
points, except round tip, which in
creased in value from eight to II
points. SteWS went up one point
and hamburger was quoted at six
points, an increase of one point.
Increases in the point values for
beef, officials said, were prompted
by lower production and larger con-
sumner demand.
OPA emphasized, however, that a
person who eats more of the lamb,
pork and veal cuts which have de-
clined in point value, may still
maintain his weekly consumption OF
meat at present levels, but not il
he spends all his red stamps fol
beef.
Pork, officials said, now is COM
ing to market in relatively greater
quantities than beef, and as a re-
suit, most pork cuts will represent
better point buys for some weeks
to come.
Whereas sliced ham was up one
point in the new table, all other
pork cuts, as well as pork variety
meats, wee down one point. Veal
chops and steaks were increased one
point, and all other veal cuts were
reduced one point. Lamb chops
went up one point, and all other
lamb cuts were reduced one point.
Semi-dry sausage, such as GER
velat, pork roll, and mortadella, also
were cut one point.
OPA said that the values contain
ed in the new table will be effective
from June through July 8, and
that no changes will be made during
this period barring unforeseen
emergencies The main changes in
the ready to-eat meat groups were
APPOINT increase in dried beef and
the addition of barbecued pork to
