-Four neatly-tuned and polished
pianos left on a goodwill mission to
Fort Belvoir yesterday-musical
evidence that Washingtonians are
In the right key when their boys"
need anything.
In the two months since the
Homer L. Kilt Co., 1880 G street
NV, first asked people to donate
their pianos to various camps, more
than 100 of the much-needed in
struments have left Washington
homes earmarked for the pleasure
of servicemen. -
Some Of the pianos were just
gathering dust, Of course, and a
few were used for plunking purposes
only, but the great bulk of the
pianos represent real sacrifices on
the part of their owners.
A little 80-year- woman wrote
that her piano was brought to
Washington so years ago from
Chicago. It's old and full Of tender
memories-but I hope some of our
boys in uniform can get even more
pleasure out it."
A man wrote that his piano hadn't
been played since his wife, a con-
cert artist. died 81 years agecould

severe shortages.
On the basis of the same fig

more optimistic, asserting that al
though the food supply would be
less than a year ago, rationing and
increased income should enable the
lower half of the population to OBJ

WASHINGTON, April 19.-(UP)
"A majority of the 52,000,000
American wage earners began a

which make it virtually impossible
to change employment in order to
increase earning power.
Henceforth, person can change
employment to get higher wages

essential activity to job in one
of the 35 essential activity groups,
or if he is going with War ManpoW-
er Commissions approval from one
job to another in an essential ac-
tivity where he can use his high
est skills or gain full-time employ
ment.
The regulations, which principal
ly affect the 27000.C00 persons in
essential activities, were posted by
VINO Chairman Paul V. McNutt
Saturday night and became effec-

BOMB SPEZIA
For the second time in a week the

Only one British bomber was lost

SITkA WATER system
NOW ADEQUATE, JOHN
HALL, ENGINEER, Says

Reporting that the field trip to
Sitka, from which he just returned
Yesterday, found conditions really
very gratifying" John Hall. public
health engineer for the Territorial
Department of Public Health,
states that the Sitka water supply
has at last been adequately pro-
vided for
The program as 1t is being
worked out is the result Of cooper
alton between the Navy and the
city, and makes available brand
new supply from Indian River. A
new pumping station there is now
functioning and the water is being
chlorinated, Mr.. Hall says.
AT the other supply from Cas-
cade Greek repairs have been made
at the dam and pipes which were
clogged last fall by gravel have
been fixed so that the same thing
cannot again occur. A new build
ing for chlorinating the water there
will soon be added, the health en-
gineer reports.
THE provision of safe and
adequate water supply is a major
1 improvement" Mr. Hall states,
since formerly this water supply
has not been okeyed for use on
common carriers as tests showed
it to be polluted
MIR. Hall also made inspections
at the Sheldon Jackson School,
with the hearty approval and COM
mendation of Supt. w. L. Yaw. He
also inspected the Sanitary Dairy
and looked into the proposed goat
dairy
Conferences were also held with
local and naval health officers re-
garding their inspections of bars
and eating establishments of Sitka,
the procedure being equivalent to
that worked out through the Health
Department in other Southeast
Alaska towns
There is quite bit of dissatis-
| faction with the Indian village
sewer development; sewers have
been laid through the village but
houses are not having connections
made" Mr. Hall found Lack of
utilization of the new facility, which
would go far to clean up the un-
sanitary conditions there, is large
ly due to the shortage of plumbing
fixtures, he felt.
Everyone I talked with was in
terested and cooperative with the
sanitary program and the work is
being very we'll received" Mr.. Hall
reports.
