Huge ShipYard
Output Cited
20 Million Tons
Shipping Built

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 Up
- The Office of War Informa-
ton (OWD reported today that
American ship yards have de-
livered more than 90 million
tons of merchant vessels since
Pearl Harbor.
Exact figures on United Ma
tons shipping losses in the third
quarter were not given, but the
Owl said 1--WE are now deliver
ing ships several times faster
than the enemy is s. king
them"
Although deliveries of new
merchant shipping by American
builders since Pearl Harbor will
reach an estimated 81 million
lightweight tons by the end of
this year - more than one-third
of the worlds pre-war tonnage
- the report said actual 1913
construction may fall below the
19-million ton schedule because
OF steel shortages, lack of pro-
pulsion equipment, manpower
shortage and unforeseen circum-
stances
BY turning out 10 Liberty
ships during August in an av-
erage construction period of 45.8
days for each vessel, United
States yards trimmed another
seven days off the January av-
erage of SIG days. Production
schedules drawn up in early
1912 had allowed an average of
los days for Liberty ship con-
struction.
This years program called for
1875 Liberties out of a total of
zoos cargo ships. but the Owl
said the Maritime Commission
foresees a shift over from the
Flooding Liberty, with its av-
erage 11-knot speed, to bigger
and faster Victory ships.
Mass production of Victory
ships will begin in 1914, the re-
port said.
In discussing future ship
building the report said the con-
crete barge continues expert
mental and subject to controver-
Sy among the experts and that
this program has recently been
curtailed. II added that the
barges had performed we'll and
filled definite war need, but
that they have been "slow in
building. and are costly for ton
mage delivered"

LAWYERS PROTEST
 BENNY'S LATEST
New Haven Legal Lights "Peeved"; Local Bar-
 risters Enjoy Laugh

Local lawyers, unlike several in New Haven. are enjoying a good laugh on themselves. Instead of charging Jack Benny's new film, 'The MeaneSt Man in the World" with debasing the legal profession, several who saw 1t at out of town theaters said "It's one of the fun niest thing we've ever seen."
 Attorney Thomas R. FitzSimmons of New Haven, who has appeared as counsel in numerous local cases and is well-known here, filed an &C., ton in New Haven superior court requesting an injunction to prevent a New Haven tneater from show ing the film.
 Four other lawyers joined him in claims that the film "debases, de- flames and disgraces the legal pro- fession." They object to the films depletion of lawyers as living "by tricks and devious means" Judge Patrick B. OSullivan granted an order which requires the Loew- Poli New England Theaters. Inc, to show cause why the showing of the film should not be stopped. Argu- ments will be presented tomorrow morning.
 The only action local lawyers will take, according to present indication will be universal fiocking to the theater when the film comes here according to present scheduling.

Lower Death Rate Due
 To Prompt Treatment
Interesting Satisfies Gathered on Nationwide Basis; 0S96 of Serious Cases Recover Report Indicates

Despite the high proportion of hosiptal patients who are danger ously i'll or severely injured on ad- mission, 95 per cent of the patients treated in them recover, according to the statisticians of the Metro politan Life Insurance Company. The remarkably low figure of per cent representing fatalities among hosiptal cases would be still further diminished if delay in seeking hos pital treatment were less frequent.
 The American hospitals have come to occupy an increasingly im- portant place in our national health program, the statisticians point out, because the general public appre- ciates today that the hospital is the best place for treatment of many conditions, and especially of the more serious ones. Consequent ly, the number and size of these hos pitals have steadily increased and in l94l, the 6,350 registered hos pitals cared for about II 500, 900 in- patients, or one in every eleven per sons in the entire population of the country. About the same number were treated in out-patient depart ments. In addition, l.4O0, 900 babies were born in hospitals in that year. In many states, more than 90 per cent of the babies are born in hos- pitals.
 Considering the large number of patients, many of them desperately sick or even moribund when ad- mitted to the hospital it is not sur-

COMMUNITY CHEST
 PLAN EXPLAINED

Edward F. Graham, executive sec- retary of the Waterbury Community Chest was guest speaker last night at the Rotary Club of Cheshire.
 The functions of the Community Chest were explained and the meth ods of operation outlined. MT. Gra- ham pointed out that the chest has proven itself to be the most econ omical and efficient system of pri- vate social work yet developed. However the greatest advantage of a Community Chest lies in the fact that throughout 1t the contributor is assured that the money he con- tributes will be used to provide the type of health and social service the community most needed in a war time world.

Of employers who can enter upon the 4e.houf week without releas- ing employees. Mrs. Dewey stated such employers can contribute to the war effort in this way without tho necessity Of notifying anyone
 In mentioning a third class of employers, Mrs. Dewey stabed that it was composed of those businesses for which longer work week would be impracticable, and for which. the adoption of the 4e-hour week would not make available additional labor supply for war industries, and those for which the carrying out of the 48-hour workweek would be in con- flict with state or local laws.
 It was stressed that any employ CT believing himself within the third category should make known all pertinent facts to tho local Man power Director in Q statement filed by April 1, apd await her decision.
 The prime purpose of the 48-hour executive order was mainly to re- lease workers for vital war industry by establishing e minimum work week in orc.er to meet the manpow- CT requirements.

 Ca Tn any establishment or other place of employment in which less than eight workers arc regular~ ly employed:
 Cb) Tn any establishment or place of employment principally en- gagged in agricultural operations:
 Co Of persons in the employ of any State or any political sub-divi- sion thereof, or any inStrumentality of any one or more of the foregoing:

HIGH FAT QUOTA
 FOR NEW ENGLAND
Housewives Expected to Contribute 9.2 of the
 Nationwide Estimate
WOOL MARKET

Boston. March 26.-Although New. England has only GA per cent of the country's population, her house. wives are asked to contribute 9.2 per cent of the l7,O00,OOO pounds of kitchen fats now sought monthly to i'll the urgent needs of our an- intuition makers and medicine pros ducers. Salvage ofilcials explained that this high ratio was not due to the fact that New England leads tha entire country in collection of kitch- en fats, nor to @ higher meat com sumption here. but because New England is thickly populated area.
 Collection of kitchen fats is high- CT in thickly populated areas be- cause fat-collecting meat dealers are handler to housewives and also be- cause fats in city homes are no put to So many home uses as by farmers wives and women in rural communities. ..
 Miss Margaret Curtis, regional chief of household salvage, War Pro,. duction Board. under whose direc- ton New Engiand has achieved the top position over the entire coun. try in the collection of kitchen fats is confident that New England housewives, hotel, restaurant and eating place proprietors will keep up their good work and go over the top in the new drive for fats.
 "I think If the housewives know that the glycerine derived from the kitchen fats is just as important for medical purposes as 1t is for mak- ing ammunition" she said, it will help tremendously. One pound of kitchen fats makes enough sulfa drugs to save a soldiers life"
