Fire Losses Will Increase

Boston, Nov. 18-(UP)-America E $1 ,000, ,000- a-day fire losses will show marked increase unless the draft ing of firemen is halted, the Ma tional Fire Protection Association warned today.
 Easing his statements on the re- suits of national survey, general manager Percy Bugbee of the non profit safety organization said:
 l. United States fire losses already are up 20 per cent over last year.
 ?. One out of every eight exper- fenced firemen in the nation now is in the armed forces.
 Bugbee said that fire chiefs in 70 per cent of the cities over 10000 population ipdicated in question naires that 12 per cent of their authorized effective manpoWer had been lost to the Army and Navy. Of thls group, he said, approximately a third reported they were unable to employ substitutes to keep up their marpoWer and that those obtained were plenty green" and frequent ly below the physical standards us- ually accepted for fire service.
 ''The loss of one man may reduce the effective operating strength of a fire company as mu:h as 10 to 20 per cent whereas the loss of one man in a military company would hardly be noticed" Bugbee said. The total number of experienced fire men drafted are substantially less than one half of military division and yet the loss in effective fire pro lection may result in crippling blow to our war effort

MOYLAN FAVORS
 MADELINE INNES

Bristol, Nov. 18-Madeline Innes of 266 Summer Street, formerly em- ployed for nine years by the E. h. graham Company, is entitled to un- employment compensation benefits, according to a finding by Unem- ployment Commission Cornelius A. Moylan, which reverses an earlier decision by an examiner. Reviewing the case, in which the chief question was whether the woman was avail able for work, Commissioner Moylan found that after she had been laid off at the Ingraham Company, and having ever.- reason to believe the layoff temporary enc, she awaited call to return to work there "be- car-c said employer was very con- siderate of its employees md looked out for their welfare"
 Because of more general layoff by the company few days prior to the hearing, however, the com- missioner said the woman ap- parently would not be recalled for work for some time and should seek other employment, which he said, she had started doin0

Mine-Woqe Row Eusinq

Washington, Nov. 18-(UP)-Pros- poets for settlement of the protract- ed coal mine wage dispute appeared Co be reviving today in renewed ne- gotiations between the bituminous operators and the United Mine workers.
 The first bargaining conference since the mines were seized by the government Nov. 1 was held yeSter- day at the request of coal admins tiated an agreement for the period of government operation with UNIV President John L. Lewis.
 The conferees agreed to reconvene today but declined to discuss the prospects of settlement.
 All major coal fields except the Southern Appalachian area were re- presented at the mi al session, all though reports circulated in union quarters that a new alignment of operators might develop and that some might refuse to participate. Spokesmen for Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Alabama and southwestern operators attended.
 Representatives of the southern Appalachian group scheduled meeting today to ccide Whet ther to join. A spokesman said there had been insufficient time to call the groups scale committee to Wash ington before yesterdays session.
 Iclees reportedly told the operators that earlier recovery of their proper ties would be possible if they began negotiations inn liatt,y. He said the framework of contract had been drawn by the War Labor Board and that the union and operators could write contract within that framework. -
 These three obstacles were beliey- ed to be standing in way of set clement:
 1. The operators concern over whether they will receive satisfac- tory price adjustment to cover in- creased costs resulting from install ling a portal portal wage struc- ture, which would include under ground travel time.
 2. The findings of an Investigating committee assigned by President Roosevelt to determine average travel time in various districts.
 3. The UNIV demand for $40 payment to cover alleged retroactive liability of the operations resulting from the requirements of the wage hour law and non-payment of travel tims under the old contract.

SEEK
 MORE TIME OFF
Suggestion COnfab With Commissioners; AIder-
 mans Action Resented

Yesterdays meeting of the board of fire commissioners received re- quest from a committee headed by Edward Groody for four days off per month for firemen, instead of the two they now receive. The re- quest was transferred to the boards committee on rules and efficiency.
 The request asked that one of the days be designated for "sick pur- poses" The board members said they did not understand the mean ing of this phrase, but apparently it meant that firemen could save up such days for times when they are i'll. At present firemen who are i'll, unless they are actually injured while on duty, receive pay while they are off duty through an ar- rangement with other firemen whereby the others work for them on their days off.
 The firemen,s committee asked the board to appoint committee to consult with them to consider the petition so that i've will be in a position to explain the purpose and object of our desires.''
 Cornsr. Archie Phillips com- mended the department for their work at the fire on South Main St. a week ago. Tn connection with this, Comsr. Gordon W. Somers let go a blast at Alderman Joseph Gel gauda who said he had inspected line of hose near a fire a few weeks ago and found it faulty.
 If Alderman Gelgauda or any, one else interferes with the opera tion of the fire department, he should be arrested, Comsr. Somers declared. The reason the hose looked faulty to Alderman Gelgauda was that there are several layers of covering over the inner hose, and these may deteriorate while the inner hose is still in good condition.
 The board granted Lineman Daniel Kinnane two weeks leave of absence without pay in addition to his two weeks leave with pay so that he might be treated at Hot Springs, Ark, for 8 physical condi- tion.
 The board received and turned over to the firemen's pension fund a check of $50 from M. J. Daily & Sons in appreciation of the work of the department in helping it re- place the cable on top of the stack Of the Waterbury Gas Go. plant.

 Riscassi called the acquisition of the home and estate bad invest ment," in that it was falling apart, :, and a more favorable place could have been purchased in view of the heavy outlay necessary to put the house in condition.
 The estate was bought for $39,5 800, and $130,000 was allocated for re- pairs and furnishings.
 Rlscassi asserted that "since amounts allocated for its repair and furnishing seem to exceed greatly anyone expectations, it seems to me that the legislature should look into the whole matter from every possible angle..'
 Gov. Baldwin, in issuing the stop- order, said a few men were being held on the job to fix "the leaky roof and leaky window fittings, so that while the house is shut up the rain can do no damage to work al- ready completed inside"

On Husband Rule Of Household

and less pleasant to the guest, the
wife champions the outsider-and
a once peaceful home is no longer
happy place for anyone, not
even for the outsider.
TROUBLE FOLLOWS
It's an old story and one ply
biologists warn against over and
cver-yet women never seem to
learn. They always think Moth
err or Aunt Susia" WON'T cause
a bit of trouble--if the husband
will just be mice
But the husband is seldom
nice for long - and then the
trouble starts, and the problem
of how to get rid of the unwel-
come guest confronts the couple.
All of which usually would be
avoided if the husband had the
right to say in the first place who
should and who shouldn't be
guests in his home. Because the
average husband would probably
turn thumbs down on every can
didate for long-term stay. And
his home would remain his castle.
