Once again oratory flowed freely
as waterbury lawyers met in SUI
perior court this morning to con-
tinue discussion of the fuel situa-
ton and take action on closing Of
fees one day each week. Following
exuberant praise of the governors
proclamation on conservation of
fuel and repeated references to the
patriotic aspect Of cooperation In
the fuel oil shortage, the members
of the local bar association voted to
refer the matter to a committee. 1t
was the second postponement Of a
decision.
One lawyer, who favored the clos
ing of offices despite avid protests
from some of his brother members,
Immediately suggested that April
might be an appropriate time for
returning the committee report.
Fifteen other lawyers Joined him in
condemning postponement of action.
SHADOW Boxing"
Attorney j. Warren Epson, chair
man Of the local salvage committee
and active in various other war ac-
tivities, asked for immediate action,
stating the lawyers should express
themselves as being in favor or OPP
posed to the proposed closing with
out attempting any "shadow-box-
ing" ut is up to members Of the
bar to set an example to the peo-
pile, not just for the purpose Of saw
ing fuel but because we are Amer
lean citizens and have an obligation
to the community" he stated.
Several members objected to the
closing stating their buildings would
be heated every day and there would
be no need for closing the offices.
Praise for the brotherhood Of
merchants" was expressed by Attor-
ney Marcus Weisman, who stated
many storekeepers who had heat
nevertheless closed their business
places because of q feeling of fair
ness to the others.
Discussion Of the matter in the
courtroom was condemned by At
torney John H. Cassidy, who stated
the problem should be considered in
private. A number Of persons whose
cases were called for the regular
short calendar session which fol-
lowed the bar meeting, as well as
other spectators, were on hand for
the discussion.

port Tuesday. The necessity Of takS
ing action while heating was still il

Ian, president Of the bar associas
ton, were made by several members

COAST GUARDS
SPIRIT LAUDED
Letter to Parents Of Doug
las Munro Held as Record
Of Bravery, Sacrifice

The war has produced many let
ters which win live forever, telling
their tales Of gallant heroisrn. pa
triotisn, and steadfast devotion to
duty. None is more expressive Of the
fearless spiritw hich typifies the
American fighting man than the
one written by Lieutenant Com.
rnander d. H. Dexter Of the q. s..
Coast Guard to the parents Of
young Douglas Munro Of Washing
ton, Coast Guard Signalman, who
met his death under fire in the Sol
onions:
ION Sunday, an expedition was
sent into an area where trouble was
to be expected. Douglas was in
charge Of the ten boats which took
the men down. In the latter part Of
the afternoon, the situation had not
developed as had been anticipated
and in order to save the expedition
1t became necessary to send the
boats back to evacuate the expedi-
ton. Volunteers were called for and
true to the highest traditions Of the
Coast Guard, and also to traditions
with which you had imbued your
son, he was among the first to vol
unteer and was put In charge of the
detail. The evacuation was as sue
cessful as could be hoped for under
fire. But as always happens, the last
men to leave the beach are the
hardest pressed because they have
been actig as the covering agents
for the withdrawal Of the other
men, and your son, knowing this, so
placed himself and his boats that
he could act as the covering agent
for the laht men, and by his action
and successful maneuvers brought
back a far greater number of men
than had been even hoped for. He
received his wound just as the last
men were getting in the boats and
clearing the beach. Upon regain
ing consciousness his only question
was, Did they get OFF, and so died
with a smile on his face and the
full knowledge that he had success
fully accomplished a dangerous mis-
sion"
