UN .~CoMUNICADo DE LA
UNION DE PANADERoS
Al pdblico en- general

Los duehos de panaderias Ia
tinas y la Union de panaderos
han llegado al acuerdo de hacer
el pan de dia en- lugar de traba-
jar de noche. Como consecuen'
ella de este cambio en- las horas
de labor, el pan llegara a vues-
tras mesas varias horas mas
fresco que al ~presente y mas sa
broso al paladar.
Las razones que nos mueyen
a hacer este Gambia radical son
varias, pero mas Importance
cue ninguna 10 es Ell hecho de
que cada vez escasean mas los
brazos que hacen el pan debido
a que, l%entamente, nuestros
miembros van siendo incorpo-
RADIOS a las filas del ejercito, Sc
gun su Classification, cayendo
sobre los que quedan la respon-
sabilidad de la production.
Otra raz6n 10 es ell darle al o.
trero panadero la o%portunidad
Ge estar con su familia aunque
sea NADIA mas que parte de la
noche, va que como ustedes sa-
ben ell panadero siempre ha ira
bajado y trabaja los siete dias
de la semana.
Antes de llegr al acuerdo mas
arriba mencionado, la Union de
Panaderos pens6 minuciosamen-
tie los resultados que este cam
bio pudiera traer, y 81 perJudi-
caba o no al pGblico consumi-
dor. sHI
Los panaderos empezaban a
trabajar a las once de la noche,
de manera que cuando ell pan
llegaba a vuestras mesas tenfa
va II horas de hecho. Ahora
Cmpezara a las dos de la mana
ma, dando oportunidad al con-
sumidor a comerlo a la bora de
almuerzo, cast acabado de ha-
Ger, va que Ell primer reparto
Sc hara a las bodegas a las on
ce de la manana. Ell reparto a
domicilio, que sera por la tarde.
hara possible el poder poner en-
la mesa, a la bora de conner, ur
pan mucho mas fresco que el
Que anteriormente Sc repartia
por la manana.
Por 10 tanto, la Union de Pa
naderos, al hacer ell Gambia de
acuerdo con los duehos de pana
derias, 10 hace con la plena con
vicci6n de que en- NADIA perjudi-
cara al consumidor.
Gracias.

 Asked if he thought his bill would have had chance of even getting on the floor if it weren't for the short lived mine strike, Smiths answer was "No."
 "It's been charged your bill would break all unions," I said. 'Is that true?''
 ''Why, where can you find any thing in it that would do that?" he asked in great surprise.
 ''WeI, you know how laws are, Judge,'' | said. "So much depends on the way they're interpreted.'
 'sYou don't need to be afraid of that" he said, ''not with the agen- cies of this government"

Listing As Critical
 Area Direct Cause

The Bridgeport Building Trades Council this week in- formed Paul V. McNutt, direc- tor of the War Manpower Commission, Washington, D. C., that government restric- tions placed upon Bridgeport contractors because the city has been designated as a No. l critical area, is responsible for a needless and growing waste of manpower among building tradesmen.
 A letter, signed by Dennis P. Byrnes, vice-president of the Council, pointed to the plight of 100 carpenters recently made idle because the firm that employed them has been denied further war production contracts. "The executive board of the Bridgeport Building Trades Coun- Gil views with alarm the plight of the carpenters in this area, and the gloomy outlook of all other building trades mechanics, if this district continues to be listed as No. 1 critical area, " wrote Byrnes.
 The action of the executive board, taken to inform government officials and elected representatives of the adverse affect of the W.M.C.'s regulations on the man. power situation among Bridgeport tradesmen. was unanimously SUD- ported by the membership of the Trades Council. Peter Benard, president of the Central Labor Union, has endorsed the letter.
 The letter was also sent to Harry Russell. A.F.L. member of the labor production service of the New Eng land War Production Board, Sena- tors John A. Danaher and Francis MaIoney, and to Rep. Clare B.. Luce, of the Bridgeport Congress sional district.
 ssWith building construction proj- ects slowing down and stopping completely building craftsmen because of the lack of new orders will be denied the right to partici- pate in the war production pro- gram,' wrote Byrnes, who con- cIuded:
 "This letter is to acquaint you with the distressing outlook of the building trades mechanic in the Bridgeport area, and to request your advice and assistance to cope with the situation"
 William J. Fitzgerald, acting di- rector of the Bridgeport W.M.C, went to Boston this week to confer with Joseph A. Smith, New England W.M.C. director on the situation.
 Fitzerald stated that he and his area advisory committee are doing all possible to stabilize manpower conditions in Bridgeport in order to have the city removed from the critical labor shortage classification.

Poll Tax Prevents
 5000 From Voting

ATLANTA, Ga. - Necessity for final passage of the bill to end poll taxes introduced in Congress was aptly illustrated here last week when the Fulton County tax collector re- vealed that 5000 persons in this area alone had been disfranchised.
 Residents of Fulton County were required to pay their poll tax by Feb. 5 in order to vote Aug. 3. In the meantime the collectors office is noti- flying those who did not pay the tax that there is nothing they can do to become qualified to vote in order to "avoid confusion and embarrassment on election day."

Inspired by the action of the wives

personnel, under the leadership of
Mrs. Henry Arnold, wife of 1t. Gen.
H. H. Arnold, chief of the Army Air
Forces, the Army and Navy Auxiliary
have launched an extensive cam
paign to recruit donors for the Dis
trict Red Cross blood donor service.
Thousands Of cards have been sent
out to wive of servicemen, and the
response so far has been gratifying,
Mrs. Charles B. B. Bubb, auxiliary
chairman, said. She states that she
expects several thousands donations
will result.
The War College alone will have
more than 500 donors who will give
their blood this week. The District
Red Cross mobile unit will 60 to the
War College today, tomorrow and
Friday and will set up their equip
ment in the recreation room at the
War College at 9 am. and stay four
or f1ve hours. At least 16O donors,
gave their blood today.

who had charge of five aides on duty
at the time. Fifteen aides work in
relays, five each on Mondays, We'd
nesdays and Fridays from l to S
pm. All the aides have had previ-
GUS Washington hospital experience.
In fact, one is a graduate nurse.
To Maj. A. H. Waffle, Army doc
tor in charge, the Is Red Cross
nurses aides are more than Is ca
pable women in uniform.
1--WE couldn't get along without
them,' Maj Waffle told The Star.
1--WE are short of nurses and the
Red Cross nurses aides have filled
the bill admirably"
The significance OF the volunteer
nurses aides contribution has i'm
plications, both in this country and
overseas, inasmuch as the Army
nurses they relieve become available
for Army field and hospital duty.
There is such a shortage of nurses
in the armed services, in fact, that
the Army and Navy have asked the
Red Cross to recruit nurses for
them. Hence each class of nurses
aides graduating from the 80-hour
training course will help fill a press
ing need on the home front by re-
leasing more and more Army nurses
from present duties.

No, she didn't understand. The

5000 Workers Here
To Aid Red Cross
Campaign for Funds
Drive to Open Thursday;
Neal Louds Appeals Made
By Nations War Leaders

Appeals made Sunday by Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Admiral Nimitz and
Gen. Eisenhower have given the
Red Cross Metropolitan Area fund
campaign an impetus 1t could not
have achieved without their sup
port, Campaign Chairman A. G..
Neal said today as 5000 workers pre-
pared to launch the local drive
Thursday.
Surely, when our leading citizens
f1nd time. even at the battle front
itself, to urge their fellow Americans
to give with unprecedented gener-
osity to the Red Cross 1943 CAM
paign. no contributor can fail to be
impressed with the great good the
organization does, and the favor
with which 1t Is regarded by those
who benefit by its work, and witness
1t in action" Mr.. Neal said.
The President, in speaking of the
campaign as the greatest single
crusade Of mercy in history cid
not exaggerate one iota," he con-
tinued. THE battalion of Red Cross
workers who are giving countless
hours Of their time to the campaign;
the millions who will give generous
sums for its work to be expanded;
the thousands upon thousands who
will reap the benefits-all of them
know to the fullest extent the quail
tty OF this mercy and the scope of
Its usefulness.
Gen. Eisenhower, in reminding
us Of our own loved ones at the
battle fronts, brought us, too, the
consolation that comes with knowl-
edge that the Red Cross is marching
with them-that 1t shares their suf-
fering and alleviates 1t to the ug-
most limit possible.
mo one knows SO well as those who
see the wounded and note the i'm
mediate revival the Red Cross blood
plasma brings. what 4 vital part it
Is playing In the war.
Admiral Nimitz, in pointing out
this single phase of Red Cross work,
touched upon a duty assumed by
the organization which brings back
to life those who have been brushed
by death. It gives consolation to
thousands Of relatives and friends
Of men at the battle fronts and on
the sea.
The very fact that these great
men, whose responsibilities are heavy
and whose time is limited solely to
the successful prosecution Of the war,
deem the Red Cross campaign of suf-
ncient Importance to evoke their
spoken rs well as moral support is
surely sufficient proof Of the urgency
Of the drive.
mo thinking American can help
being impressed by this. and it must
be . matter Of pride with every one
Of them to support this great or
ganixation by . contribution far in
excess Of any they have heretofore
made"
