You see it's hard for farmers to increase milk produc

On top of that the men in armed forces drink more
milk now than they ever did as civilians. The way
things are it takes quart Of milk out Of every four

That's all very well, " beloved Elmer, but, war or

The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-10-26
One Main Issue

Apparently this is not to be a city campaign in which issues are hurled back and forth with reckless abandon. If it be Republican strategy to withhold serious condemnation of Democratic efforts in the conduct of the city government, then by the same token the Democrats may be excused from eXtolling their accom- pliShments. All they've got to do is say look at the record There is no gain saying the fact that Waterbury has been given good government under the ad- miniStration of the late Vincent A. Scully. This has been admirably continued under the regime of Mayor John S. Monagan. So it's no wonder that the GOPers are hard-pressed for firm footing in their current campaign.
 Everything would seem to be on the side of the Democrats. But there is one thing that may make great difference in the count of the vote next Tuesday. Voting indifference has reached the point now where it's dangerous for any party in power to believe that it can't lose That Democratic office-holders share this ap- prehenSion is apparent from their re- marks in the last week or so. They haven't been praising their administra- ton to the skies or pointing out this or that accomplishment. On the contrary they have been stressing the fact that to vote a straight Democratic ticket you have to pull the Second Lever. Likewise they have been exhorting party workers to get out the vote and not wait for it to appear by itself.
 On the score of good government the Democrats deserve to be returned to office here in Waterbury. There has been Seri- ous effort in the last four years to place this citys finances on the SoundeSt basis possible. This has been accomplished in part; there is still much to be done. Right now the city enjoys the best possible repu- tation in municipal credit markets. Every thing is being done to bring the bonded in- debtedness below the legal limit and keep it there. At the same time there is thought for the future. The postwar period is sure to be critical one for many municipalities. Waterbury hopes to be able to survive and at the same time promote program of advancement with its own reserve funds.
 Tn this score the Democrats can afford to call attention to the record. They need not fear the argument about keeping one party in power too long, for that really is not an argument but an attempt to con- ceal COP failures. Anyone who votes the Democratic ticket this fall can do so with the knowledge that it is an en- dorsement of good government, which IS wkat we have demanded for Waterbury, isn't 1t?
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-10-26
Colossus of the Sev~-- Seas

While exact figures cannot be ob- tained-nor could they be used If they were available-there seems to be no doubt that the United States will end this war as the Colossus of the Seven Seas, the greatest maritime power this world ever has seen. Digesting informa- tion made public by the owl, it appears that when the war began our Allies were able to scrape together 43 million tons Of shipping and we had some 12 millions. (In every instance we are using dead- weight figureS)
 Tn the first p months of war the Brit ish lost third of their 9 million tons leaving them somewhat under IS mil lions. They have not been able to bal ance losses with new construction, for the war as whole. So the British mer- chant marine probably will wind up un- der 20 million tons-how much under, of course, is for MT. Hitler to try to find out.
 We went to war with close to 12 mil lion tons and we have had more than 20 million tons delivered since Pearl liar bOr. By new Years morning the gross pool of American shipping is expected to approximate 40 million tonS-almost twice as much as Great Britain, mis- treSS of the seas, possessed before the war began. It goes without saying that we shall not actually have 40 million tons of shipping on January next. We have lost heavily to the Axis already, and shall lose more. But we, alone of the great maritime powers, have more car 20 ships today than we had before the war, and it is a safe guess that we shall end the war with perhaps twice the ship ping Great Britain will have, and in- finitely more than any other power.
 This situation is not outlined in a spirit of boasting. We are mighty proud of the skill, ingenuity and success with which our shipbuilding industry, much of it improvised for the purpose, has beaten the U-boats. We should be even more pleased if circumstances had made it possible for our Allies, the British, to do as well. There Is nothing big-heart-
