 IN UTILIZATION

 fer of Workers Likely

Relief for Waterbury's manpower shortage depends on effective utili- zation of the current labor supply Mrs. Mary M. Dewey Area War Manpower director. told members of the Industrial Foremen's Club at a meeting last night at the Water bury WomenS Club.
 The director stated most of the available labor supply has already been used, that young men are en- tering the service, and that there Is now little migration to this city, and an increasing amount of cmi- grafton. She said there is little possibility of obtaining a sufficient number of additional workers and that the hope rests in securing the best utilization of the persons now employed.
 Transfer of workers within plants to secure greater efficiency was ad. vocated by the government official, who urged greater study of possi- ble transfers. she said that 0 speed-up of production is necessary in wartime and efforts must be made to prevent loss of man hours,
 Various undertakings of the WING were discussed by Mrs. Dewey and the appeals work 1t conducts and regulations 1t must enforce were mentioned during the talk.
 An entertainment was provided by members of the Chase Brass & Copper Co.,, with Walter A. Chase serving as master of ceremonies. Allan Rockwell, president of the Foremens club, presided at the meeting.

War Di1ns Enthusiasm
 For F Festive Ceremony
cily Witnesses Unusually Quiet Observance of St. Patrick's Day; Superior Court Case Postponed

defense of the liberty they love, there was Q little less light in Irish eyes in Waterbury today.
 Parties and celebrations were at a minimum today befitting of the sol emnity of war times. Fathers and other draftees were departing on this day which made for little spirit of happy relnembrances of other St Patrick's days.
 Roman Catholic churches conduct ing the usual daily Mass were bit more crowded this morning as the Irish and others prayed for the safety of their loved ones.
 A few stores and business houses had added little something green to celebrate the occasion and few were the individuals emblazoned with the colorful symbols of their racial descent as has been seen in past years.
 The spirit of st. Patrlck's day this year was one of solemn hope that the next one would see the safe return of many of Waterbury's youth, as many Q piece of green belied heavy heart.
 Irish eyes were smiling and green- bedecked spectators nodded approv- ingly in superior court today when Judge Frank P. McEvoy granted Q routine motion to have case on today's short calendar docket stand over until next week. The case was that of the Naugatuck Division, Ancient Order of Hlbern- ians, Inc, against Division No. 2 of the Ancient Order of Hlbernians, ct al, and 1t was Q smiling judge who stated lover" when Attorney David Torrance indicated Q St. Pat ricks Day hearing in that case just wouldn't do.

SOMEWHERE IN THE MAR
SHALL ISLADS.-In one of the
most unusual feats OF the war, the
Navy recently evacuated the civilian
native population OF the Japanese
held fortress of Wolfe Atoll in the
Marshall Islands.
Accomplished at night, the evac-
uation must have been mortifying
surprise to the nearby Japanese
garrison Of several thousand SOL
diers and Korean laborers.
More than TOO native Micro
nesians were liberated in the daring
operation carried out under the di-
rection Of 1t. Eugene F. Began,
U. s. N. r., of Washington, civil
affairs officer for that area.
Only one family, consisting Of a
man. his wife and their baby. elected
to remain on the island, which has

been bombarded from the sea and
air almost continuously since early
in January. Today Wolfe remains
one of the most bombed places in
the world, sharing that distinction
with three other passed Marshall
bases, Mill, Jaluit and Maloelap.
Details Of Evacuation.
Here is how the natives were
evacuated:
Two small warships slipped into
the lagoon of Erikub Atoll, about
6 miles from Wolfe. Aboard were
several natives who previously had
escaped unassisted.
The natives were lowered in their
outrigger canoes from the two ships
and unfurled little sails about the
size of tablecloths. In the dark
they SKINNED over the Wolfe reef.
Landing on the village beach, they
slipped from hut to hut, arousing
their kinsmen and advising them
that the Americans were on Erikub,
ready and willing to remove them
to a haven free from bombing.
Quickly but silently the 700 rolled
up their mats and gathered their
poultry and pigs. These, together
with the women and children, were
dumped in the tiny outriggers.
Human Cargo Taken Aboard.
The silent fotilla tackled straight
into the Erikub lagoon. At day
light. the women and children and
the inf1rm were hauled aboard the
warships. After a long journey
the human cargo was pulled ashore
on the beach of another atoll, where
they received resounding welcome
from hundreds of other Marshallese
SO recently freed of the japanese
yoke.
Later the natives told the Amer
lean authorities they desired to
stage a great celebration to COM
memorate their liberation.
I saw this celebration, which con-
sisted of intricate dances with sing
ing chorus, each dance created to
depict various scenes OF their sub
jugation by the Japs, the enemy S
cruelty, the coming of the Amer
leans and the, killing of the enemy.
