tees, has dominant role in
the first National Labor-Man-
agement Production EXPOSE
ton which opened this week
i'm Washington to exhibit to a
preview audience of cabinet
officers, legislators, Army and
Navy and industrial and labor
leaders the accomplishments
and successes of labor-man-
agement production d riv e
committees in war plants from
Portland, Me. to Portland,
Ore. Special credit is given to
Connecticut for its united
teamwork in increasing war
production.
The exhibit, a project of the
War Production Boards "War
Production Drive" filling the
mammoth Department of Com
merce auditorium, was inspired
by, and is modelled after the pio-
neering "War Production Drive
Show" of the New England re-
gional WPB in Boston in No
venber, when thousands viewed
this first exhibition of its kind.
At that time, Charles E. Wilson,
WPB's executive vice-chairman
paid the Boston show flying
visit and the Washington exposi-
ton is a direct result.
The national exposition, far
more elaborate, and one which is
to be publicized on an international
scale, features more displays from
New England than from any other
region. At least 40 per cent of the
large booth exhibits are set up by
New England plant committees.
most of whom participated i'm the
Boston show.
The displays cover labor manage

workers suggestion systems; absen-

health and nutrition programs; mate

down the bank to the smaller plane,

careful to keep away from the
window, Rae moved restlessly about
the room. Getting out of the hotel
would be his next job; he remem-
bered the back stairs to the alley
and wondered IL the hedge would
give him shelter as far as the street.
He'd have to chance it.
Pulling out short black pipe, he
looked at it, longing to smoke. But
you could tell pipe tobacco; and,
walking toward the inner door, he
called, "Have you any cigarettes?"

The moist warmth Of hot water
and the smell of scented soap hung
in the air. Well, she'd better enjoy
it now: it would be a different tale
in Learmonth. He only knew she
was a friend of Rodney Selkirk's,
and she was broke. But whoever she
was, she had courage.
Not one woman in ten thousand
would see him standing in the door
of her room and ask calmly, What
do you want?"
She was fully dressed when she
opened the door, and that thick,
varicolored hair of hers lay heavy
about her shoulders. Going to the
bureau, she began brushing it, quite
oblivious of his presence; then care
fully she rouged her lips. A conf
dent, young face, he thought, but
in repose the eyes and mouth held
a shadow of-not sadness, exactly,
but neither were they gay.
"Now." She picked up a ridicu-
lousy small felt hat and pulled it
down over her hair. What are the

Rising, Colin reached for his hat.
"You better pack, and in exactly

to drive down Broadway and stop
at Donald Street. I'll be waiting
back among the trees"
Haven't you any luggage?"
"It's at the station, and I'm leav-

off, but at the door he turned. "I'd
almost forgotten there were people

She did not answer, but her
cheeks were brighter at the warmth
of his voice. Noiselessly he opened
the door, listened, then slipped out
into the hall.
Even before the taxi stopped,

DR.. Solby also explained that in
many instances emotional conflicts
exist long before the victims come
here to enter the Government serv-

Other speakers at the meeting
were DR.. Rex Buxton, director of
the Washington Institute of Mental
Health, and Edward NJ Curran,
United States attorney.
DR.. Buxton pointed out that
gap exists in Washington's treat
ment Of mental cases in that most
general hospitals have no psychiatric
program.
Mr.. Curran applauded the ad-
dition Of psychiatric clinic to the
court system here and said he be-
lieved this program would eliminate
the necessity Of judges having to
sentence offenders on the basis of
lunches"
