ed last night at O meeting OF the
Community Chest Of Waterbury,
Inc. executive board, the local U.
s. O. committee and the Allied War

held at the Y. M. @. A, with Austin
L. Adams presiding.
Edward Graham, executive secre-
tary Of the Community Chest, mem
toned that the only exception will
be the Red Gross war fund drive,
which will have Its drive In the
spring.
It was President Rocsevelts re-
quest for the War Relief Control
board to begin O National War
Fund, Inc, for the purpose Of con-
Eolidating all campaigns for raising
funds In the fall.
"A state War Chest is being estab-
lshed to direct organization Of the

AZ FREn MULLEN

Omitted Press stan Correspondent)
Washington, Feb. ~ - (U.P0 -
There were more and more indica-
lions today that the 48-hotir work
week order win do little more than
ease temporarily the lnanpower
situation In nol1.waP businesses.
Tt is doubtful that the order will
have any perceptible eject on the
overall maIpower situation In the
long run because Of the rapidly in
creasing size Of the armed forces
and the continuing upward trend Of
production.
:. It was pointed out that the Army
viii be taking men from civilian life
much more rapidly than even the
most optimistic estimates Of the
total number Of men that viii be
released by the 48-hour work week.
Thus, observers warned against
expecting the new order to be the
answer to fnarlpower problems. They
said II would ease the situation, but
1t could do little In helping sitlia-
ton that viii continue to get worse
as the war progresses. H
All major war industries already
have attained schedules approx
mating or exceeding the 48-hour
level, so the full impact Of the Or
der will be felt only by non-war
businesses.
The war manpower commission Is
still being flooded with inquiries
whether the 48-hour work week or
der concerns me-" The answer to
all so far is:
Eyes, II you are In the 80 speci-
ned shortage areas, and 1t will con-
tinue TO apply to all employers until
they are expressly exempted"
The order becomes effective stimuli.
taineously with the edict issued last
week by War Manpower Commits
SION Chairman Paul v. McNutt
which provided that no man en-
ployed In 10 manufacturing enter
priseS, eight wholesale and retail
lines and nine service activities, or
engaged in 90 specific occupations
would be granted draft deferment,
regardless Of dependents.
That order, which becomes effec-
tive April as does the 48-hour
:, week edict, has caused O clamoriNg
for war Jobs In labor surplus areas,
but virtually no rush developed In
war industry centers where fathers
already had, In most caSes, sought
essential Jobs In order ID escape the
draft.

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS. A

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, Al
giers, Dec "a. (UP)-The British
eighth army hammered the Ad-
riatic wing of the German line
across Italy Friday, pounding the
last enemy toehold in Ortona, cap
turing the nearby village of We
zanni and driving against Villa
Grande on the road running in
land
Americans of the fifth army
fought through a downpour to cap
ture more high ground in the
Acquafondala sector above Casino
on the Rome road, but yielded a
hill three miles to the south to
strengthened German counter
blows.
Marauder medium bombers of
the Northwest African air forces
braved bad weather to attack the
coastal railroad on the italian Ri
veira, plastering targets at Venti-
miglia near the French border and
Imperia 30 miles to the east.
The battle of OrLona was car
ried through another day of bloody
fighting by a last ditch German
stand in the northwest outskirts
Struggling to hold the anchor post
at all costs and delay a general
fallback on the Adriatic, the Nazis
were fighting to the last man at
some strong points amidst the rub
BILE of Ortona.
| The fall of Vezanni, three miles
south of Ortona, and the drive tC
the outskirts of Villa Grande. two
miles away on the road to Tollo
intensified the plight of the Ger
mans in Ortona.
Eighth army troops captured
the village of Vezanni," said an
unusually brief commun q u e
Heavy fighting continues in and
around Ortona. Our patrols were
active along the entire fifth army
front"
The see-saw fighting on the fifth
army front gave the Americans
new heights mile east of Acqua-
fondata, eight miles northeast OF
Casino.

NEW YORK, Dec. "a. CUP) =
Eleven mink coated matrons today
were chosen at 1943's best, but the
two top rankers Congresswoman
Glare Boothe Luce and the Duchess
of Windsor, declared they hadn't
had anything new for months, while
the l1th, Rosalind RUSSELL said
she'd rather be a pin-up girl any
day.
"I've paid precious little atten-
ton to my clothes in the last few
years." said blonde Mrs. Luce, who,
like the duchess, rarely wears hats.
i've always got feeling I'm hor-
ribly frowzy these days, but I've
not time to do anything about it,"
The duchess, who tied with Mrs.
Luce for first, said she hadn't had
