Naugatuck, June g. - "Josiah Culver's General Store" written by Mir. and Mrs. Allen TTask, will be the 5th episode in the centennial pageant taking place June 17th. on the Futile School lawn. The gen. eral stora century ago was the gath- ering place of the doctors, lawyers. teachers, large land holders, black smiths, men who did day work. and the less ambitious fellows who found the boxes in the general store as comfortable as the chairs at home. It was here that Truman Hopkins excellent farm land was discussed and envied by the less fortunate. It was here that the Wigs reviled the Democrats and the Democrats reviled the Wigs.
 In Josiah's store the problems of the Annexation of Texas and the rights of slavery were argued with all the individualism and enthusi- asm found in the men who were building the foundation of our great nation. And it was here that ten pounds of pork were traded for rnolasses from the West Indies and two pecks of beans for calico for the children's summer clothes.
 Tn is44 Naugatuck was a sports mans dream. At Pond Hill brook the fishing was 50 fine that men waded into the water and scooped the trout out with their hands. At the general store, also, Abner Camp entertained the men with his dra- matic hunting stories. Conversation here sparkled with true Yankee wit and Marshall Smiths droll sayings were of the best.
 In this day Indian remedies were popular. In many households they were in competition with Dr. Meers usual prescription of cider and toast. Wildcats and rattlesnakes were plentiful around Naugatuck

small numbers have already made landing and prepared the way for these traffic cops of the invasion They come well drilled and equipped for their job. They have with them stretchers, huge duffle bags filled with medical supplies and cases of radio apparatus. Their job is to get the beach ready for the landing of men and supplies. They are going to look after the first casualties and establish communication with the waiting transports. When they give the word the invasion will start.
 But this one craft is not alone. The waters are filled with similar tiny boats carrying other platoorls of battalion companies and army engineers. AS soon as they get ashore they will start planning roads for our advance.
 At last this LCV strikes shore. Swiftly the hinged forward end Is lowered and serves as a gang plank over which the boys dash. Other boats land and the beach is soon alive with darting, bent figures. silhouetted against a background of smoke and flame. Each man has his objective. Some fall, others dig fox holes, burrowing in the sand like crabs. From these they fire. The beach master in command finds a large rock behind which he crouch

COTTON TEXTILE
 SUPPLY VERY LOW
Nelson Wants Governors to Tell Workers Import.
 ance of Jobs

Boston, June 9-(UP)-Chair- man Donald M. Nelson of the War Production Board warned New Eng lands governors today that the na- tion's cotton textile supply Is "very low" in the face of rising require- ments, but he believed that the ra- tioning of cotton goods can be avoided.
 Addressing the New England Gov- ernors' Conference which is study ing production and manpower prob- lens in this areas vast textile in- dustry. Nelson appealed to the state executives to impress upon textile workers the importance of their jobs.
 They are just as important as the man working in the shipyard making battleships and landing craft and other war materials" Nelson said.
 Newsmen were not admitted to the conference chamber but as Nelson emerged after his speech he told reporters:
 Clothing must be had for mili- tary forces as well as for the civ- ilian population who, if they are not properly clothed. cannot do good job. We have been living off an &C., cunulated inventories and these are going down rapidly. AS We go into France today, we need not only clothing to outfit their armies but also for the poorly dressed civilian population"
 Nelson said he had appealed to the governors to tell the textile workers that trivial absenteeisin should be avoided" In some cases, he said, absenteeism is necessary, but in very few.
 Generally speaking, Nelson said, the nations production of war ma terials lis keeping pace" with the war effort.
 However, we can't afford to be satisfied. There are few bad spots, particularly in the forge, foundry and ball-bearing plants and textile industries"
 Nelson said that federal and state governments are using "every known method" to combat the manpower and production problems.
 It was reported that among other things Nelson will discuss with the governors was the problem of lower- paid textile workers leaving their shops for more lucrative war jobs.
 Nelson Is said also to be inter- ested in a training program whereby more men and women can be taught the textile trade and thus partially alleviate a manpower shortage in that industry. -
 Beside Nelson those at the confer ence included Govs. Eeverett Sal- tonstall of Massachusetts; Sumner Sewall of Maine, Robert O. Blood of New Hampshire. Raymond A. Bald win of Connecticut. J. Howard Mo- Grath of Rhode Island. Regional Marpower Director Joseph A. Smith. ard Regional War Production Board Director Walter F. Wheeler. Gov. William H. Wills of Ver- mont did not attend the confer ence, 1t was said, because he faces no textile problem in his state.

es. In his hand he holds a small oblong box. This is the "walkie talkie," self-contained radio trans hitter and receiver. Through 1t he gives his commands to assistant beach masters with similar instru- ments.
 ORDER OUT OF CHAOS
 In a comparatively short time, or- der of a kind develops out of the apparent confusion. A first aid sta- ton is set up. A radio transmitter for communicating with a patrol ing dispatch boat is working, and 8 powerful signal light is blinking its message also. Prepared for any emergency, should these means Of communication fail, man with two flags stands ready to wave the or- ders from the beach,.
 While these things have been go- ing on. the medical corps has also been at work. Unmindful of their own danger, they have been pick ing up the wounded, some of whom lay in exposed positions. Many of these are put aboard the small walt ing craft. When it can hold no more, 1t puts of for its mother ship.
 At last the green light" flashes. Larger landing craft moored along side the transports filled with men, with trucks, artillery and tanks, start on their trips. D-Day has daWned,

Remove Young Shoots to Restrict Plant Growth
BY HENRY L. FREE Written for NEA

With an early start at sowing. most Victory Gardeners have now had their first crops of radish, lettuce, young onions, spinach, Swiss chard, young beets and tops, baby carrots, and in some ta- stances, good mess of peas. What plans have you made for succession crops?
 Pea vines should be cut off and the roots cultivated into the soil along with some more fertilizer be- fore late cabbage, caulihower or pepper plants are set out. Or maybe you plan to SOW seed of some later maturing crop such as kale, snap beans, Chinese cabbage, beets or carrots. Be sure they will stand the hot summer sun.
 If you are training your tolna- toes tao stakes, set the stakes be- fore setting the plants. Stake should be the thickness of a broom stick and at least six feet long since one foot of 1t will be in the ground. Staked plants are set two feet
