Captain Eddie Rickenbacker again
comes out with his favoring Of the out
having of strikes Of any nature for the
duration. There are those who are OF
the opinion that Captain Rickenbacker
does not understand or realize the labor
situation, all of which may be true, but
he does know and appreciates from per-
sonal experiences which he has not pub
licized what Is 1t to be in tight spot.
He has experienced danger in the nth.
degree many times and has been ready
with his life as part Of the solution IN
the present world debacle which Is tax
ing our men and the men OF other coun-
tries In large numbers in open combat,
in the air, on the sea, and anywhere they
happen to be In the vast war theater. 1t
is quite understandable that he cannot
have any particular axe to grind when
he makes his suggestion Of several, the
outlawing of strikes for the duration.

The Federal Government Is pointing
out 10 states and communities that the
problem Of providing adequate assistance
In the establishment Of day care projects
for the children Of working mothers Is
properly theirs, So, though funds may
be allotted to various towns or cities for
child care centerS, such as has happened
In Waterbury'S case, there won't be an
increase In such appropriations, Con-
greSS has stated that the Job of provid.
ing such funds and such services viii
have TO be undertaken largely by the
community and by the families who will
be affected by such programs,
Maybe that's why the $2,2S0,000 state
war budget contains provisions for child
care aid, Unfortunately this budget has
TO be spread over great variety OF eX.
pcnSeS and child care establishment and
maintenance Is no inexpensive item, as
local officials who have investigated 1t
could probably testify, Our own situ9-
ton Is rather unique for efforts in this
direction have been under way here now
for almost q year, Approximately half
of the budget for a center in this city,
capable of accommodating go children,
will be furnished by federal grant, But
there will be careful supervision Of the
expenditure Of these funds and they
are definitely earmarked for certain
purposes,
waterbury, like all other large indus
trial centerS where more and more mar
ried women are being called into the
factories or other businesses deserted by
departure Of their help for the factories,
will have TO consider very carefully and
seriously In the coming months the prob
lem OF child care, II isn't something
that can be tucked away into a pigeon
hole nor will It take care Of itself, It's a
man-slZed Job and 1t Is no longer In the
experimental stage, Apparently It's here
for the duration Of the war so the sooner
we realize that whereas welfare cases and
expenses have definitely dropped, such
social problems as maintaining the home
front for families where both mother and
father are workers have taken their place.

0PA Names Advisers
On Coal; Hopes 10
Avoid Rationing

By the Associated Press.
Industry committees to advise in
development OF plans for coal ra-
tioning were set up yesterday by the
Once OF Price Administration, which
simultaneously expressed hope that
rationing would not be necessary.
Thirty-eight leaders in the various
fields were named to four commit
tees representing the anthracite and
bituminous industries, the coal trade
associations and the coal equipment
industry.
Representatives from these COM
mittees will form a coal industry
avisory council to serve as a steering
group on overall rationing prob
lens.

have as few rationing programs as
possible" OPA General Manager
Chester Bowles said in. announcing
the appointments. TN the case of

not be necessary to extend rationing
to more formal controls.
"On the other hand, we must be
prepared in the event that authority
to ration Is delegated to OPA by
WPB and in the event that the
Solid Fuels Administration de-
termines that Tationing is neces-
sary."
Only one coal rationing program
now is in effect, covering limits
of purchases of anthracite in IL
Northeastern States and the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Harold Ickes. Secretary of the In
terror and Solid Fuels Administra-
tor, however, has warned that grow
ing demand threatens to outstrip
