 Why, I had always considered that section one for farming alone, remarked w. J. Aranda of Chile Tt is surprisingly different. h. stead I found huge plants produc- ing war materials"
 The group is repeatedly i'm pressed by the number of womer who are performing duties ir American industry which once were considered for men only.
 Tt is very fine thing, all these American women we see helping with your war effort" said Y. l. Tong, one of the Chinese repre- sentatives. And they are doing such good job of it--as good as any man."
 China is already at work on a 10-year plan of industrial re- building outlined by Generalissimc Chiang Kai-shek, according to c F. Cheng, whose parents are now in a Japanese prison.
 China will need many products from the United States" he said Of course. we must almost build an entire new country after the war, and our people must be taught the application of modern machin- cry and industrial products" He will return to China after his training as an industrial engineer.

Out of ninety-one fatal traffic accidents caused in Connecticut during the first six months of this year, tWenty-six involved one car only and of these tWenty-six drivers, who were alone to blame for accident involvement, sixteen were killed.
 In commenting on Connecticut's traffic fatality experience for the first half of the year, Commis- sioner John T. Mccarthy of the Department of Motor Vehicles emphasized the departments in- terest in these one-car cases.
 "These drivers, said the com missioner, could blame nobody but themselves for causing an accident. No other car, no other person, such as a pedestrian, committed any action which de- veloped such hazards as to pre- cipate a conflict that could not be avoided. While not criminally negligent, they were certainly negligent in trying to operate a motor vehicle when not able to do so safely"
 Driving too fast for conditions is the most frequently occurring factor in all fatal accidents, par

SINGING STAR

Lucy Monroe to Be F0rm= ally Welcomed; In Pub=

Over a million Americans during the past year have joined their voices with Lucy Monroe's in com- munity sings throughout the coun- try. And several thousand more will be added to that total tomorrow night when the famous singing star of stage, radio and screen makes her first Connecticut appearance as guest artist with the Fulton Amerl- can band in special musical fea- ture at Library park co-sponsored by the park department and Water bury Tool company.
 The big free outdoor concert will climax a full day of activity here which will open with half-hour program at the Tool company plant during the noon-hour recess, a pri- vate concert at Waterbury Catholic high in the afternoon, and several radio interviews. Lucy Monroe is the best community sing leader in my experience" says Dr. Glenn Dill lard Gum of the Washington Times Herald, and he adds, Her voice is rich and clear. her diction impec- cable and she knows how to stimu late the participation of the multi tude by graceful gesture, for she is handsome-with a magnetic per- sonality"
 The noted lyric c-soprano will arrive here tonight at 6:30 and will be the guest of Mayor John S. Monagan at dinner at the Hotel Elton. The chief executive is tremendously in- terested in the park departments summer musical schedule and will be on hand tomorrow night at Li- brary park to formally introduce the famous singing star.
 As a special feature of tomorrow nights event at Library park, Miss Monroe will stage special song contest for adults on the big out door stage with the winner to be awarded a prize and the opportunity of singing a duet with her just as has been done in many of the big industrial plants throughout the country.
 AS director of patriotic music for RIGA, Miss Monroe is giving the ma jority of her sings" for the men of the fighting forces and the soldiers of the industrial front" She will continue to take her voice and her ability to lead community singing, into the army camps, into naval

Members of the party are export agents of this countrys largest producer of steel, and in classroom sessions at Eastern mills they are making an exhaustive study of this vital building material-from the time it is mined in the form of iron ore through it's many appll- cations in modern industry.
 The men have geared themselves to a fast pace that would leave a less earnest and serious group ex- hauSted.
 There is an important reason for the speed, A. Latorre of Brazil remarked, We must work fast, V he said. We must absorb every last bit of information while we are here this time, for we may never have the rare opportunity to visit your country again.
 The group is remarkably cosmo- politan, although representing na- tions of widely separated ideas and customs. One of the party - best identified by his habit of constantly iotting down notes in a little dog cared book-is s. G. Tsimis, son of Greek parents, born in Italy, educated in France and citizen of Egypt
 He was asked what in his opin- ion will be the greatest need after the war in his part of the world.
 Tt is for America to come to us with merchandise and modern equipment and modern ideas" he answered.
 "The people in Egypt and in my native Greece look to America more than to any other country" he con- tinued. They know that all other countries whose businessmen have come to sell them goods-the Ger mans, the Italians, the French were primarily interested in ex- plotting them and taking their land"

 In the tWenty-six one-car fatal accidents up to July l this year, it appeared that in five cases the drivers had fallen asleep. In two others, the odor of liquor indi- cated the driver had been drink ing. In another it seemed that the driver had been drinking and had fallen asleep at the wheel.
 Fifty of the fatal accidents dur ing the first six months this year involved one car and pedestrian.
 Of the 142 fatal accidents dur ing the first six months last year, tWenty-nin were one-car acci- dents. Seventy eight involved one car and pedestrian.
 Up to July l this year, the per- centage of fatal accidents involv- ing neither another moving object nor pedestrian was twenty nine per cent of the total as con- pared to twenty per cent last year.

Peacetime Uses Of Freight Glider Are Adapted For Carrying Trouble To Axis
RICHARD DU
 
By JAMES THRASHER NEA Staff Correspondent

Washington, July 21 A young, modest Richard du Pont slipped quietly into the Pentagon Building several weeks ago to take over of the Army's newer, and, the invasion of Sicily has proven, more import ant air jobs. His title is Special Assistant to the Commanding Gen. eral, Army Air Forces, and he was picked by Gen. H. H. Arnold to suc- ceed the date Maj. L. B. Barringer as chief of the Air Forces glider program.
 Actually this 32-year-old mem- Der of the famous Delaware clan of Du Fonts has the authority of an Assistant Chief of Air Staff in matters pertaining to glider pro- duction and training. An assistant chief of staff usually is brigadier general, at least, but Du Pont is serving in a civilian capacity.
 His glider experience began when he was IT, and he flew them 10 years During that time he held the international distance and distance and-return soaring records, besides establishing a national altitude rec ord and later breaking it. He thought he had given up his youth full hobby when, at the ripe old age of 27, he became president of new firm called All-American Avia- ton, Inc. But his activities after he had grounded himself probably had more to do with his getting his present job than did his records as a glider pilot.
 FLYING FREIGHT
 All-American Aviation was or ganized to operate and develop one of Du Fonts brain children-the air mail pickup system. That is the clever and efficient scheme whereby mail is snatched up by a plane in flight at a considerable saving of time, space and expense. Later the system was extended to include frieght pickups.
 Shippers liked this freight idea and wanted to include larger and heavier packages. Finally things reached point where Du Pont decided that the only way they could get this heavy freight off the ground would be to put wings on it. So he found himself right back in the glider business.
 Obviously if a plane in flight can pick up glider full of freight, it
