Letter From Sweden Tells Interesting Tale

In a letter from Stockholm Sweden, dated March 23, 1944 received by Paul Sarv, the fol lowing items of general interest were noted.
 Food supplies of all kinds are constantly being donated and shipped to Norway by Swedish organizations as we'll as clothing and cash. Over 100000 school children are fed daily in the pub- lie schools in Norway through the efforts of Swedish organizations and handled through the Red Cross.
 Over 9.000,000 kilograms of sugar has been sent over there by Sweden, for which there is nc charge, to any one that can not afford to pay, and any cash re- ceived remains in Norway for use by the local organization taking care of the needy.
 Over 3O,000 Finnish children are now living in Swedish homes and institutions set up for their needs and care, and more are coming over. Sweden welcomes children from Norway but only a few can get over there on account of German regulations forbidding them 70 leave Norway. Thousands and thousands of Danish, Nor wegians and Finnish refugees are located in. Sweden and more are coming in there every day and whenever they have an opportun- ity to. cross the border.
 While nearly everything is ra- toned there is plenty for every one. to live on and their biggest problem is fuel.

TEACHERS ATTEND
 JOINT CONFERENCE
Miss Hogan Represents Waterbury at Hartford
 Session Today

Miss Helen Hogan, local teacher, today represented the Waterbury Teachers as president at the joint conference sponsored by the Con- necticut Manufacturers Association and the State Teachers Association, and held at the Hotel Bond, Hart ford.
 Thomas Roy Jones, president of the American Type Founder, Inc, New Jersey, and a member of the Board of Directors of the National Association of Manufacturers was the principal speaker of the day.
 MT. Jones, in his address declared in part:
 Clearly, if the goal of a better America after the war is to be achieved, it will be necessary for representative teachers and repre- sentative businessmen to sit down together in each of the communities of this country and xplore each others viewpoints and suggestions. In such a spirit of mutual helpful ness they will be enabled to blaze new trails of community better ment.
 Businessmen have the selling know-how, and they will be glad to

of 55 years shall be eligible for re- tirement."
 Scoring the proposed bill as 'in- adequate" and in measure unjust" Atty. Fitzgerald attacked the fea- lures of the proposed bill as having consequences which would discour- age desirable candidates for the re- spective departments-and create discontent and risk, consequent impaired efficiency upon the part of the present personal and invite resignation on the part of the younest and most vigorous mem bers.
 Hazardous Work
 '"The work of policemen and fire men is hazardous he said. They work seven days week, and at any time during their respective tours of duty, they may be called upon to risk their lives; and very often in the past many of them have risked their lives, and some of them have lost their lives in the line of duty. Because the public security is in their keeping, the public interest requires that they forego the right of all others who labor, to form themselves into a union, to enjoy the right of collective bargaining, and to implement that right by the expedients and practices, such as strikes with which we are all fam iliar. To attempt to foist upon such workers, who on the one hand are expected to sacrifice their safe- ty and risk their lives for the pub lie security, and on the other hand are deprived of the ordinary rights of labor, bill such as that under discussion here tonight, particular ly after they have been lulled into a false sense of security by the operation for almost four decades of an entirely different system, is, I respectfully submit, unjust and unreasonable"
 Referring to death benefits, Attor- ney Fitzgerald strongly attacked the logic of the benefits proposed under the bill now under consider ation and labeled the phraseology and its intent as familiar words ot art employed in the standard policy of accident insurance
 The States Attorney proceeded: Under the proposed bill, the rate of payment of death benefit is the same as the present program and the eligible recipients are the same. Difference lies in the requirements laid down for service-connection. Under the present law, 9 death IS service-connected, if the deceased is killed while in the active perform ance of his duty in his department, or dies from the proximate effects of any injury or exposure received
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-12-15

tions from the employees but are liabilities of the city and state under state laws.
 The states attorney cited the fact that because of the public service nature of the employment of the men of these departments they are forbidden even the most minor rights of the laboring man to or ganize or to protest believed i1- equalities by the standard of strikes.
 Because of the nature of the work and the hours, he said, the community owes more to firemen and police than to other employees both in the matter of pensions and death benefits.
 Appreciation Expressed
 O. Arthur DuBois, chairman of the commission thanked the spokes- man, the only speaker of the even- ing for the departmental members, and likewise expressed his apprecia- tion to the firemen and policemen present. He assured all that their suggestions and criticisms would receive the consideration of the commission.
 A final bill must be drawn up, now, on or before January 15, then to be submitted to the Adminis- tration, to the Mayor directly. Un- der terms of the legislation per- taining the latter l1ede not submit the final bill to the legislature, if he so desires.
 It is expected that the final formulation of such bill will be thrashed out in the General As- bly,, next year. It is not believed at this time that the present Com mission will or can do much about the many proposed amendments in any materially great form.

Adjustment a Problem.
We always knew that movie stars
nursed many an idiosyncrasy, but
that the husband of a movie star

bands movie-going habits, and al
the same time Intercepted a few
other actress wives about similar
quirks in their own households.
From the replies, We were abso-
lutely astonished at the elaborate
efforts a movie actress wife and an
unlimited husband sometimes
make to get their conversation and
life in general on a common basis
of interest.
