Iooth Decay Cause

ii we accept the idea that the

enamel of the tooth and then o,hcr
bacteria enter the crcvicc and
cause decay. we have concluded
that bacterial action constitutes
the whole aus of dental carries.
But, the nutritionists say, if the
nutrition of the individual were
maintained ut 4 high enough level.
the acid could not dissolve any of
the enamel. The food elements that
they particularly stress are cal

foods. All such research, however,

other Is that it is due To the poor
nutrition of the person afflicted.
Undoubtedly the answer is that
both factors operate. No one would
dispute tina, in the cavity of a
dccaycd or cariouS tooth bacteria
were actively multiplying and do

how and why did they get there in

Navy Man Says Long War Ahead
Plants Absenteeism
Lauded By Tremaine
Lieut.. Col. Praises Footwear Workers. Cooperation
With ServiCemen; Labor, Management COmplimented

Naugatuck, Dec. 2o-'Your record
Of absenteeism is an enviable one
and proves that you share with the
uniformed fighters of our Armed
Services the determination to stay
with this job of winning The war UNI
til our ultimate day Of victory, said
Lieut.. Col. Edward G.. Tremaine,,
Jr., Quartermaster Corps Chief,
Purchasing Branch, Procurement
Division, of the Boston Quartermas-
ter Depot in his address this aft
ernoon at the Army Navy e. Pres
elitation to Naugatuck Footwear
Plant members.
He said in part:
Perhaps you noticed that the let
ter from the Under Secretary Of War
announcing this Award to your
company began with these words:
ITO the Men and Women of the
United States Rubber Company,
Footwear Division" In those thir-
teen words was the recognition by
the Army and Navy of the fact that
it was the United effort of labor and
management which made your award
possible.
You have worked well together
and you have done GOOD WORK
together. AS evidence Of the quality
of your production you can point
with pride to the fact that the per-
centagc of reflections in your plant
is very low. Your engineers and
chemists have given, and are CON-
TINUING to give, constant atten-
ton to the development of speciality
soles, climbing soes, Sperry soles for
Amphibian work, and improved de-
sign of shoe pacs, all with the view
of conserving crude rubber. Other
workers in your organization have
made outstanding improvements in
production methods and in technical
developments. An example of in
genuity and high-grade technical
conversion is shown in your use of
tennis type footwear equipment for
jungle boot manufacture.
I congratulate you because you
have shown by your fine work that
you realize that every man and wo-
man in this nation must contribute
in some manner to our common
cause. Total warfare involves more
than an invincible Army and Navy.
1t involves the utilization OF the
economic and financial resources,
the manpower, AND ABOVE ALL
the courage and determination Of a
united people.
This all out war Is o gigantic
struggle. It Is q tough and brutal
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-12-29

war and the Job Of every man and
woman in 1t, either on the fighting
front or on the production line, Is a
tough one. This Is true from the
very nature and magnitude of the
task that confronts us. There are
no easy jobs, no soft snaps, either
on the firing line or on the produc-
ton line. Each one of us has his
own job to do in this total war,
and if he gives the best that is in
him to that effort he Is fulfilling
his obligations to his country and to
the men who are fighting and dying
for it. To win this war we will have
to fight harder and work harder
than ever before in our history.
From the United States Rubber
Company, Naugatuck Plant, the pro-
ducts of your skilled hands and
trained minds are going out to our
Armed Forces in all parts of the
world. Your Rubber footwear, Rub
Der Boats, and seIf-sealing fuel cells
for Aviation gas tanks-as the very
names suggest-are used by our
fighting men on land, on sea, and
In the air.
Our soldiers, sailors, and marines
NEED these materials which you SO
well know how to make. In provid-
ing them you weld the fighting
front and the production front into
one solid, aggressive force, an I'M
beatable unit fighting valiantly for
the principles of freedom,
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-12-29

to guard the health of civilians.
AS our men fight for us in Italy,
over Germany and in the Pacific,
they know it's a hard and bitter
war that will not be easily won. Of
ten they must 60 on fighting II we
are to keep that freedom we all
value. Through your day-by-day
hard work you are having q very
real part In helping those men
fight.
More invasions. more fighting are
ahead. They will call for more
production from us at home. They
will call for more protective foot
wear for our fighting men; yes, and
for more footwear to keep us at
home physically fit. They will call
for more self-sealing gasoline tanks
for planes.
This means you have important
work before you-responsible work
that calls for the best skill, en-
thusiasm and hard work Of each
one Of you.
Today the Army and Navy have
given you a high honor for your
war service. 1t is an honor that
Is well earned but an honor that
carries with 1t solemn obligation
for the future.

fighting spirit can do. I know that
you In this plant have that spirit
and will use it to back our boys
with everything you've got.

has always been good footwear, for
you men and women have high
standards and you keep them high.
Now, in this, your Tooth anniver-

outstanding record of service by
providing large quantities of pro-
tective footwear for our fighting

us about the way the products you
have made have stood up. Many

how your footwear is taking them
