Bishop Appeals
For Relief OF
War Sufferers

Most Rev. Maurice F. McAuliffe
bishop of the Hartford diocese, is
sued the following letter this Weel
tc all in the diocese to give thei
material assistance in relief for wal
sufferers. The bishops letter fol
lows.
His Holiness Pope Plus XII,
through the Most Reverend Apos-
tolic Delegate expresses his deep
gratitude to the Most Reverend
Archbishops and Bishops, the
clergy and the faithful of the
United Staes of America for their
generous offerings made for the
relief of war sufferers in many
countries throughout the world.
Such a message prompts us to
urge our faithful lpeople to con-
tribute generously to the Bishops
Relief Committee collection on
Sunday, July 18th.
The Diocese of Hartford has re-
sponded generously to the appeal
of the victims of war in all parts
of the world. 1t is a most worthy
charity. We have only faint idea
of the horrors and SufferingS en-
dured by little children, the aged,
the infirm and the refugees who
all seek alienation and protec-
ton. We shall not be remiss in our
duty this year. We are assured by
the Bishops Committee that every
dollar is used for actual relief in
war infested lands.
AS the war continues the SUI
fering of it's victims becomes more
acute and the want more extern
sive. We shall not turn aside from
this worthy appeal which brings
meritorious reward. We shall IN
deed make greater sacrifices that
others may find their way to glory
and joy and many blessings.
The Holy Father faces a tire
mendous task His life and his
works are suffused with the
breath of Divine Charity. Only
the book of life will record the
blessings he has brought to In
Vulnerable men, women and chill
dren. Let not this appeal pass by,
let it sink and take root in your
souls and bear fruit hundredfold
for you in this life and life ever
lasting hereafter.
Begging Gods blessing upon you
and your flock, I am Sincerely
yours in Christ, MAURICE F.. NC
AULIFFE, Bishop Of Hartford.

Ehort Of its quota.
$4,000 Barrels
Before the ban can be lifted the
states in the shortage area must
save at least $4,000 barrels of gaso-
line daily in this manner, because
that's the approximate amount now
being saved by the ban, the ration
ing official said.
To do its part, or 1852 gallons
Of gasoline day, he added.
Calling the saving already OBJ
tanned "really remarkable" the Off
cia1 explained that most of the cur
tailment came as result Of slashes
in the allotments of gasoline to COM
mercial vehicles by the Office OF
Defense Transportation
Next biggest opportunity for re-
ducing the amount Of legally OBJ
tainable gasoline was offered by
over-issues of highway ra-
lions, he pointed.
Meanwhile the "B" and CO. ra-
ton book holders are beginning to
yield stream of excess gasoline
coupons as the local boards through
out the state launch their drive to
make ride sharing mandatory for
any use Of supplemental gasoline.
In cooperation with this campaign
originated by the state OPA, nearly
500 plant transportation committees
in Connecticut war factories are
now being called on to tighten ride
sharing arrangements among their
employees 'if they want them to get
to work regularly, on time and with
the minimum Of inconvenience.
Factory Workers
Figures presented to these man
agement-labor committees, organ
ICED many months ago by the state
checked driving through the gates
OPA, indicate that the average car
of war factory has only 90 pas
sengers, including the driver.
If this average can be raised to
four passengers per carr Chester
Bowles, state OPA director, has re-
peatedly said, I'VE can easily save
enough gasoline to make possible
the elimination of the ban against
non-essential driving"
While progress made in other
states In the shortage area has not
been reported, Connecticut OPA
officials feel that I'VE are making
IN enviable showing here"
They express confidence that
Connecticut will be saving not only
its daily quota of 3,846 barrels
within another four or five weeks"
sut may even surpass that figure.
The spirit of unselfishness and
cooperation which has made our
program to save gasoline SO success

Noted Bureau Head Sees
Women In Postwar Move
From Factories To Home
BY BETTY MACDONALD
(NEA Staff Correspondent

WaShington.-A After this war
women's place will be in the home.
That prediction is noteworthy when
you consider the source-Mary An
derson who has headed the u. S.
Department of Labor's Women S
Bureau for "a out of 25 years of its
existence. And the Women's Bureau
it should be noted is the govern
mental agency charged with pro-
noting employment of wage earn
ing women and looking after their
welfare.
But Bureau Director Anderson
really feels that the postwar re-
turn of millions of service men to
civilian life will be the cue for
women in industry to go back to
where they came from.
However" she points out, there
will be many men who won't come
back. And for those whose graves
lie in foreign soil, women will re-
main at the machines of industry,
to carry on in peacetime. Well
have need of women then, too. But
L
many women as can should go back
to their homes and raise families.
During her years in the bureau,
Miss Anderson has noted consid-
cradle change in women's working
conditions and in the attitude of
the men who employ them.
Employees are now interested in
sanitary conditions, good hours,
safety clothing and safety for
women" she says. Manly employ
ers have agreed to equal pay"
In the latter connection, she
points out, the distinction between
mans work" and "Womens work"
has disappeared in many industries
and the necessity of fitting women
into wartime jobs has brought
progress to factory production
methods and working conditions
that will prove a boon in peacetime
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1943-07-09

as well as now.
Employers are concerned with
making the jobs attractive for
women, installing comfortable rest
rooms and convenient lunch rooms.
Medical care, facilities for child care
and home problems of women work.
erfs are increasingly the concern OF
factory bosses.
BY the end OF this year if War
Manpower estimates are correct,
there will be some 100000 women
in war work. That means that one
out of every four workers in Ameri-
can war production will be woman.
80, in the postwar world Miss
Anderson holds, women should
hav an equal say with men in the
planning-because they helped bring
about the victory and the peace

dents turned in coupons valued at

Spouse to small notice which ap-
peared in their local newspaper.
With this sort of assistance, we can
not help but succeed"
Bowles emphasized, however, that
gasoline coupons which are sur
rendered or repossessed aren't an
accurate guage" of the amount of
gasoline saved since many of them
might not have been used, particu-
larly if they represent over issues"
Repression OF extra coupons,
however, does have the effect of
drying up" black markets, he added

Will be utilized to the greatest eX-
tent in direct support of the war
effort. Convincing proof must be
shown, however, he added, that these
men cannot be replaced within six
months.
This plan is identical to that
adopted throughout the country and
will affect all Connecticut indus
tries. For those industries now
operating under a Replacement
Schedule with the Selective Service
System an orderly withdrawal of
men has been assured The with
drawal of men from industries that
have not adopted the Replacement
Schedule plan will be left to the
judgment and discretion of individ-
ual local boards.
Mr.. Robinson stated that on all
Replacement Schedules accepted
after July LIST, single men and mar
ried men without children, within
the 1925 age group, will be sched-
uled for early withdrawal.
Mr.. Robinson gave it as his opin
ion that the tightening-up on &C.
cupational deferments and the re-
sulting release of single and child
less married men from industry will
undoubtedly be reflected in a de-
lay in the induction of married men
with children, that is, children born
prior to September IA, 1912.
while it is not possible at this
time" said Mr.. Robinson, Ito fore
tell just when, or if, it will be neces-
sary to induct fathers, every reason
