CONNECTICUT, according to the States Unemployment Com mission, will have to find jobs after the war for POO. .OOO service men and women, and 218,OOO war workers.
 IT WAS page l anti-Iabor stuff when the Chicago Tribune said that six girls struck because the boss wouldn't let them Airt in a war plant with the postman. The girls quit, they said, because of in- sanitary working conditions.

 ONE WAY to drum up att tendance for Dewey's spare tire in the Presidential race was the Buick Division stunt of General Motors when ''Honest John" Bricker spoke at banquet in Flint, Mich. Ac- cording to Buick Local 599, United Auto Workers, the Buick manage ment called foremen and likely production workers into huddle, distributed 40 banquet tickets and told the men that CM would pay them for lost time if they would stay and listen to Bricker's raves.
 Other CM plants in town pre- sumably did the same and in this way, by way of feed and Iost-time checks, the Dewey propagandists were able to boast that in Flint the Bricker meeting drew more people than Wallace did a few days ear Her.
 IF YOUR landlord refuses to paint your apartment and you do it yourself, it amounts to an in- crease in rent and should be re- ported as violation of an OPA rent ceiling. For other informa- ton on rent control, the OPA's ''Facts You Should Know, State ment No. II Rent Control" has it all. These are available for dis tribution to local unions through OPA.
 THE following headline in the Milwaukee Sentinal'' no doubt has the right idea, but it's usually spelled with 'sb''.
