From St. Johns University and a prospective BBA to the Carib- bean Theater of Operations and a very realistic war in years time is the story of Captain Arthur R. Matura, Station Operations Off, cer.
 He was born and brought up in Brooklyn and, after being gradua- ted from Alexander Hamilton High School, entered the University with an eye on a business career. With the war in Europe growing in intensity and with the idea that this country would inevitably be forced into the maelstrom, the Captain enlisted in the AAF' in September 194O, after completing three years of his college studies.
 Captain Matura was sent to the Mississippi Institute of Aeronau- tics for his primary training and to Gunter Field, Alabama, for basic. Upon the successful com pletion of these first two phases of flying, he was transferred to Maxwell Field, Alabama, where he won his wings.
 The young fighter pilot was inn mediately assigned to the 22nd Pursuit Squadron then based at Puerto Rico where he remained un- til two days following that never to-be-forgotten Sunday, ' Decem- Der, 1941. The whole Squadron was transferred to Panama in the ex- pectation of an attack on the vital life line that this country main tains. On this mass flight there was only one mishap. One of the pilots engines caught fire when they were about ten miles from their destination and still over open water. The Captain had to bail out and with skillful maneu- vering of his chute landed on 8 mud flat-only to find the tide rising rapidly. With the upsurging of the waters came the dreaded enemy of man-sharks. In the meantime his plight had been made known and PIT boats were on their way to pick him up. The resuce party had to shoot off the maneaters as it made it's precar- ious way in rubber rafts.
 The Captain remained in Pan- anna for six months and thep flew

 Early settlement was anticipated in other disputes in Detroit and some 5000 employees of war plants were expected to return to work within the next two days.
 Two virtually completed naval vessels at San Francisco were de- layed in dryoock when AFL and CIO machinists rejected e back-to-work order from national union heads and continued Q strike for wage rate revisions.
 CIO Claims
 The CIO Machinists' local claimed that workers were entitled to an hourly repair rate, 14 cents an hour above the new ship rate, for final repairs and outfatting on the craft. The AFL local refused to order its men to work more than 48 hours a week in 194 San Francisco bay ma chine shops.
 At Canton, O., 1,200 members of the United Steel Workers union (CIO) voted today on returning to work at the Timken Roller Bearing Corp. steel mill, which has been strikebound since last Wednesday.

More than 1,50o production employees walked out Friday.
 NLRB Supervision
 Under NLRB supervision, 4,000 Montgomery War employees voted on selection of the United Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Employees Union (CIO) as their bar gaining agent.
