Harry R. WestcOtt Spoke at UnicO Club Giving
 Valueable Information

Postwar construction plans for Waterbury and Connecticut were discussed at last nights meeting conducted by the Unico club at the Elton. Harry R. Wescott, president of the Connecticut Association for Planning Postwar Construction was the principal speaker.
 According to MT. Wescott careful estimates show that about 300,000 workers will be turned adrift in Connecticut at the close of the war or possibly before" and these in ad- dition to 100000 men and woman to be demobilized" we must be pre- pared to offer solution to the em- ployment problem, he said. Post war private construction with little public competition is one of the an- swers to such problem.
 Guests of the Unico club included Mayor John S. Monagan, who spoke briefly, Rt. Rev. Msgr. Joseph Val. dambrini, Clarence N. Wiley, presi- dent of the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers, Barry L. Morgan, chairman of the Waterbury district committee of the Connecticut As- sociation for Planning Postwar Con- struction, and E. J.

 Hosteling trips can be tailored to the measure of your purse or the gait of your shanks mares. Cline recalls some pretty rugged" hostel tours he has made, including a summer tour from Chicago to the Missouri Ozarks, another 800-mile tour around Lake Michigan, via bike, hike, and boat. On the other hand, two RAF flyers took the four day skyline tour touching Mary land, w. Virginia and Virginia. They reported they had a real vacation and felt as if they'd real- ly been some place.

 Col. J. Monroe Johnson, Office of Defense Transportation direc- tor, gives a hearty second to the recommendation for hosteling on this summers vacation, with an invasion on, normal transportation must be devoted to winning the war. An excellent way to spend this years vacation is to take advantage of American Youth Hostels. The health of our people is important. Here's a splendid way of getting out-of- doors, visiting the country side without burdening rails and highways"
 American Youth Hostels has a post-war plan which will bring tears to travel-hungry tourists eyes. With a commission under the British Youth Hosteling ASsocia- ton, a plan is being worked out to use transport ships to take hostelers to and from Europe. When last heard from in l93s, 20 European countries reported ten million over night stays at 5000 youth hostels Hosteling is booming in England.

SHORTAGE OF HELP IN FORGE PLANTS
irector Fitzgerald Appeals to Youth to Accept
 Employment

Hartford, July l2--State Man. power Director William J. Fitzger- aid of the War Manpower commits sion today appealed to the youth of the state to take jobs in the forge shops and foundries in Connecticut declaring that a severe manpower shortage existed in this industry.
 MT. Fitzgerald said that the forge shops and foundries in the Hart ford and New Haven areas were sadly in need of young men In order to maintain the output of necessary forgings and castings for valves, gears, ball-bearings, engines and other accessories. He said that hte industry was prepared to hire high school and college students for this type of work during the summer recess.
 The state manpower director said that while the work in these forges and foundries was of muscle test ing nature, he believed that it could serve as a means of training for the youths who had ambitions to be good football players either at high school or college.
 MT. Fitzgerald said that the lack of manpower in forge shops and foundries produced a critical situ- ation in the production of war ma terials. He said that a drive had been started by the War Manpower commission through entire New England and more so in Hartford and New Haven in an effort to divert some help to this essential industry. In Connecticut, he said and especially the heavy forging and casting areas, a considerable lack of these materials is existent. Shortage of castings for valves, ball. bearings, fittings and other such items is practically holding Up most of our urgent programs. He urged every patriotic American boy who wants to do his bit during the sum- ner recess to apply for such jobs through the USES ofiices.

HOstels Gain New Popularity
 As War Curbs Vacation Travel

By ANNE sTEvICK NEA Stan CoFrewnontient

Washington, July l2--With travel and resort accommodations over loaded for the summer, your vaca- ton plans may look slim. sUnder the circumstances there's nothing like Q hostellng trip to get away from it all and take out those desk kinks" says Justin Cline, head of Potomac Area Youth Hostels. That's one reason youth hosteling is going great guns here in Wash- ingtor, and in many sections of the country. Were not overcrowded, though, because so many of our old hostelers are hustling around Nor- mandy"
 As a hostler. you can bike in organized groups or free-lance ex- cursions at cost of $1 day, and put up at hostels, usually in ex- pansive farm houses. Hostels are spreading through the country from the New England region covering Maine to Connecticut to the two western regions blanketing the Rocky Mountain states and the coast states. If there's so much money jingling in your jeans that spending only $l day appalls you, more elaborate hosteling, with sad- dle horses, canoes and boat-trips, can be worked in. Hostels are ar- ranged in loops at about 15-mile intervals, usually on secondary roads. You can get a hosteling Baedeker to plan your tour from National Headquarters, American Youth Hostels, Inc, Northfield, Mass.
