Writing column when there
isn't anything to write about is
somewhat difficult job, but it
is very pleasing when you can
write praises of people of whom
you have for many months con-
demned. This is just where |
stand today. For many months
the people OF the city don't
by any chance mean the majority
were so miserably bad until it
was easy telling you of their es-
capades, but recently they have
become equally as good as they
We're bad and mischievious and
/ feel 1t is the duty OF the col
umnist who was always loud in
his condemnation to be equally as
loud in praise for their reforma-
ton.
Let me take those who have
always been in the clutches OF
Jno. @. Law for imbibing too
freely of the intoxicating beyer-
ages. Quite a change has been
seen, not only before the tribu-
nal Of justice, but on the streets
of me city. Some sarcastic per-
sons ere always seeking excuses
fer taking the glory away from
others, they want to credit the
shortage of liquor for such a
change But, I am too elated to
creoit any barriers with any
thing, for | have discovered that
whatever a person wants, no law
or any regulation is going to
Keep i'm from getting 1t as long
rs he is loose on both ends. Yes,
the one time DRINKS are improv-
ing upon their behavior.
Let ME take the female auxil-
larry of the local morale club, by
ISLANDERS are not crediting them
with the upgrading of their pro-
fession. They have the gall to
say there are not enough men,
bers free from the springs
of publication to continue their
trade. 1t is even said that there
aren't enough boys in brown
with the green to interest the
division in the colors, but I take
different views from that. I
think the division should be con-
graduated for their up-to-date-
ness in being shrewd enough to
ply their trade in the more lux
uriods places under the protec-
ton Of bright painted fronts and
church going proprietors where
the local blue coats refuse to
stick their noses. This auxiliary
cou dn't be expected to be in low
cotton always!
Let me move on to those who
once thought that good energy
should be wasted on the home
front by always challenging the
other to a duel where the art Of
fisticuffs was demonstrated to
such a degree that 1t brought
them standing before the tribu-
nal of justice asking whittier.
This group Is to be congratulated
for its enlightment. Still there
are some who would discredit the
better judgement of these peo-
pie by saying that the credit
should go TO the clubs of the
special officers in the district.
But, as usual, I am found on the
disagreeing side again. I main
tain that these people discovered
that when a stick is welded by q
police officer It becomes irreslst-
ible and by their head being I'm
movable, when the contact was
made,un pleasant results were
present, and they soon became

News Of
Connecticut

Hartford, Conn, Nov. Sup
Clyde w. Gleason, occupational
technician Of the U. S. Employment
Service, predicted today that 4,00O,-
900 Of the present 10000 persons
employed In manufacturing plants
throughout the nation would be job
less Immediately the war Is over.
THE brutal fact is that manufac-
turing is already far too heavily
manned for the earlier stages Of
postwar production he said.
The 100000 retained in jobs, ac-
oording to Gleason, will be able
10 keep production at pace with de-
ynands for the first four or five post
war years.
Gleason said his layoff figures did
not take into account the returning
servicemen, whom he said would be
compelled to enter non-manufactur-
ing activities unless there were a
greater number Of civilians let out
of manufacturing jobs.
In Connecticut, said Gleason, the
number Of workers has risen from
100000 to more than 100000 since
1899 and will go somewhat higher"
lie forecast at least 100000 OF these
workers would have to be laid of "at
the very instant that the soldiers are
returning from the battlefronts.'
The best Job opportunities for the
seryicemen, he said, were in agri-
culture, public works and profess
sional lines, unless there were def
mite Industrial openings awaiting
them.
