In all districts where school buses
are provided. behavior OF the chill
dren is governed by the same rules as
in the classrooms. But unfortunately
on a public bus no one has any au'
thority to enforce proper behavior
except the police. and the bus driver
can do no more than he is doing now.
In other words, correction Of the be-
havior of the children is in the hands
of the teachers and parents. They
alone can impress upon youth the
need for cooperation.

sensible for them to be expected to
keep moving back in the bus when
they are nowhere near their destina-

yelling and rough housing.
In all public conveyances. there
are the fruit-eaters, the gum-chew-

always most careful to keep the drip

smoking is against the rules. there is
usually one cigar on almost

Thanksgiving Dinner Prospects are Bright

military demands were filled by
Oct. 25, this year the military
is still taking turkeys and there
is no sign of when they will
have had enough.
And this means something to
civilians: The processing of tur-
keys, moving from the farms to
the wholesalers to the retailers,
takes time.
SO, because the military is
still taking turkeys, there is not
much time left for the usual
processing proc edure. That
means fewer turkeys reach your
neighborhood store.
The processing is also being
slowed up by labor shortages.

hopes the turkey supply will be
better at Christmas time.

tration:
Turkey-there won't be any
over-supply in spite of an ex-
pected record production. The
military services want a lot
more turkey than last year.
Near the turkey-raising areas
there'll probably be enough to
meet demand. Elsewhere, there
may not be enough.
Onions, beetS, rutbagas, car
rots-dont expect trouble here.
There's a good supply.
Beans-You d better look for
the canned kind. The supply is
pretty good. Therell be few
fresh beans.
SHORT CROP
Cranberries-The crop, short,
is only about half of last year S.
Mostly you'll have to use fresh
Cranberries. The canned berries
have gone largely into the war
services.
Potatoes-A little short for
November.
Sweet Potatoes These are
short in the middle states, worse
in the west, better in the east.
Peas-You'll be able TO get
practically no fresh peas.
Cabbages-Not so good. They
won't be plentiful.

Covering ], ,4O7 cases, the survey showed 68 or 47.6% were handled by unanimous agreement of the tri-partite board. In 722 cases in which there were split de- cisions, public and industry mem bers outvoted labor members in 3l5 or 43.6%. Labor members were joined by the public members here in 296 cases or 4O%. Strange ly enough, industry and labor got together to outvOte the public members in II cases or l.5%.

 "The fear of prolonged unem- plOynlent following VIE day has been exaggerated,' Byrnes said. He quoted an unidentified General Motors executive, who was asked about how long it would take him to get into civilian production and he replied that six months ago he would have said months, 2 months ago, 5 months, but today, about 2 months.
 Byrnes used this example to dem onstrate the growing confidence of business that the planning for re- conversion is effective and will work to the interest of all.
 Finally, as to unemployment com penSation, Byrnes indicated that he was definitely in favor of more lib- eral benefit payments by the unem- ployment compensation systems of the states. He said there will be some states in which the payments will be very inadequate, particularly in view of the increase in the cost of living since such payments were es- tablished by those states"
 But, he said, he believes that after the November elections Con- gress will reconsider and adopt a uniform scale providing up to $2O per week for as long as 26 weeks. Some leaders in Congress, he said, felt that it would not be right to

We doubt that the Americans of Polish descent in Connecticut will be taken in by that kind of thinking. Poland's problems will be settled by the United Nations, and Mon- keiwicz's ideas come close to dis loyalty. They reflect the views of the Polish barOns who for genera tions have oppressed the workers and farmers of Poland.
