USED CONTAINER
SUPPLY LIMITED
Names of Dealers, Types
of Containers Available
to Growers

Fruit and Vegetable Growers and
Associations interested in obtaining
supplies of used containers were
urged today to contact the nearest
Office of Distribution Of the War
Food Administration Harry F.
Hughes, area supervisor, 1893 Grand
street, Waterbury S, Connecticut.
AS result of a survey of used con-
tainer and bag dealers in Metropo-
Titan New York, office of distribu-
ton area, supervisors are able to
furnish persons interested in get
ting such supplies with the names
Of dealers and the types Of contain
ers they have on hand. Mr.. Hughes
pointed out that If the anticipated
acreage IS planted and production
Is normal, shortage Of containers
may be expected. Every container
will have to be used and reused, he
said. II producers do not start
piling now for 1914 use, thus giving
dealers market for their stored
containers, the salvage of certain
types Of containers may be discon-
tinued for lack of storage space.
Mr.. Hughes also emphasized the
necessity for using types Of con-
tainerS on hand even If these do not
conform to former practices.

Charles RoSengarten, acting as
agent for the manufacturer whose
identity has not yet been publicly
disclosed, said the firm would en-
ploy new workers Immediately and
expansion would be undertaken so
that several hundred persons viii be
employed in the postwar period. It
was reported the concern would be
one of the largest In the country
to manufacture the particular prod
uct that is its speciality.
Approval OF the sale transaction
was given by Judge Frank P. NC
Evoy on motion Of Attorney Alfred
l.. FinkleStein, receiver of industrial
Properties, Inc, who asked the
court to permit the sale for $4,000
In cash.
Another offer for $4,000 also was
made, but subsequent developments
disclosed the other offer could not
be made in cash. Previously an Of
fer of $4,000 was made, but only
$40. 900 in cash was involved, and
the City of Waterbury declined to
accept mortgage of $4,000. Be-
cause of extensive tax liens against
the property, any mortgage on the
premises would have had to come
through the city.
It was pointed out when the
courts permission for the sale was
sought that the city would benefit
from the transaction in that addi-
tional workers would be employed
after the war, and the city would
receive property taxes.
The real estate agent pointed out
that extensive repairing work will
be undertaken at once and the
premises would be remodeled in
preparation for the new manufac-
turing work.
It Is believed the title search will
be completed within few days and
the realty papers win be drawn up
and filed probably by the end Of the
week.
At the present time 13 or IA ten
ants occupy the premises.

Under the revised system Of ex-
animation notices, only three days
notice is required of draft officials
to inform the prospective inductee
Of the date of his examination. II
successfully passing the physical the
inductee is then given 81 days before
Ieaving for camp. Previously a pros
pective draftee was given at least
10 days notice relative to his call
for examination.
1t has been stated that an I'M
preecdented number of appeals are
being made to local boards by faith
ers, who as result OF the many in
constituencies contained in the di-
receives Of Washington officials
during the past year, now find
themselves unprepared to make the
step into the armed services. SC
many contrary directives were is
sued from Washington last year that
most fathers were unable to prede-
termine just when they might be
called and just what formative
steps they might take to arrange
their affairs preparatory to being
called.
1t is expected that the newly Gre
ated 5th Congressional district ap-
peal board located here will be
swamped with many Hardship"
cases Of fathers with two and three
and more children who are listed as
sole dependents. However under the
new system prospective indudctee
desiring to appeal must do so with
in ten days after receipt of his ex-
animation notice and must submit
to the physical before the appeal
board is allowed to take his case
under consideration.
Purpose Of this, in one instance,
Is to prevent the board having to
give consideration and time involved
to an appellants case who might
eventually be rejected and classified
as At by the examiners in New
Haven.
Many prominent local fathers
have already been classified la by
their local boards and some may be
scheduled for examination next
Monday, it was stated today.
