- Mai. Gen. Hershey. Selective
service director. said today that
draft headquarters is considering
removal of restrictions on drafting
fathers although the ink has not
-heen purchased tnWrite the order"
"The time for reclasslfying
fathers is approaching more rap
idly than we like to think about"
Hershey added, reiterating his
belief that draft boards would
have to dip into the pool OF
married men with pre-Pearl
Harbor dependents about July l.
Gen. Hershey said that, to his
knowledge, no such fathers have
been indicted since last July -,
when they were ordered deferred.
He challenged any one TO present
proof 10 the contrary, in writing.
Hershey pointed out that such
cases already brought TO his at
tention had been found juStifiable,
usually on the grounds that the
husband was not supporting his
family or waS-nOt living with them.
Furthermore, he noticed that
with Strange frequency wives
Themselves asked draft boards 10

reason.

BEYOND CONTROVERSY
To avoid controversy we try to hew
close to the line Of conservation In
this column. Consequently one mat.
ter that has long needed attention
we have long passed by. But with
the growing denunciation among
non Catholics Of the serni-monthly
periodical that carries the name
''The Protestant" we feel that we are
not In the realm Of controversy
when we criticize this publication
which the non-Catholic Gustavus
Meyers In his History Of Bigotry
in the United States rates as one
Of the most anti Catholic publica-
tons in the country.
Many fair minded non Catholics
who have made the acquaintance OF
THE Protestant" recognize 1t for
what It Is, not @ protagenist Of the
cause Of Professionalism In the Uni
ted States but merely an anti
Catholic publication that merely re-
hashes long refuted canards about

STATE May WIN
SAFETY AWARD
Decrease Of 25.5@o in
Number Of Fatal Auto
Accidents to Date

with -fourths Of the year
now history, the Motor Vehicles De-
partment reports 1853 persons killed
In traffic accidents as compared
with 212 for the same period last
year, o decrease Of "a cases or 1850
This reduction is several points less
than the national average so Con-
necticut, according to Motor vehi-
cles Commissioner John T. McCar-
thy, is not on its way to winning q
safety award for 1943.
Connecticut's traffic fatality rate
for August moved up from IL to "a
which brought the eight-months
rate UP from go to IL deaths per
100 million miles of motor travel.
September's rate for 1913 will like
wise be higher and this should adj
vance the accumulative rate for the
year still higher, which record will
probably be sufficient to disqualify
Connecticut as real contender for
either national or selectional traffic
accident prevention honors this
year."
September shared the dubious
honor with February Of proceeding
1912 fatality totals for the same
months. Two more persons suf-
fered sudden death because Of traf-
fic accident injuries last month than
for September, 1912. One less pc
destrian was killed, but three more
car occupants were listed on the ia
tai roll. No bicyclists were included
which is a strange experience, ac-
cording to the department, because
Of the generally careless use Of BIZ
cycles at night when traffic hazards
are greatest.

WORDS ON UNIONS
The organization of labor for the
protection and betterment Of the
working classes has been q major
doctrine Of the social encyclicals OF
the great Popes Of the Church and
constitutes o major part Of the so-
cial action program Of the Church
not only In America but throughout
the world. OF general interest then.
and indeed most pertinent to those
among us who take the stand -off
attitude towards the efforts OF labor
to organize, are the words OF Dean
Wayne Morse, capable young mem
Der OF the National War Labor
Board.
In hearing Of the dispute OF the
Atlantic Iron Works Of New York
and the Industrial Union Of Marine
and Shipbuildipg Workers he warm
ed the Company Of the ultimate
danger Of its efforts to destroy the
union organization. In part his
words were as follows:
II think that the destruction az
the American labor unions would ha
one OF the most disastrous things
that could happen In this country. I
think that we are going to have to
rely on the unions and other con-
sentative elements to protect us
from changes Of government which
some people in this country may
seek to impose"
And to the Company's protest Of
the dangers Of small minoritieg
that are well-organized he replied I:
u am Just taking judicial notice 81
the fact that the first step OF any
Communist or Fascist government
is to destroy the labor unions.D
