GOOD SANITATION
 COMMUNITY ASSET
Vital Defense Against Dis- ease Declares Director
 Warren Scott

The importance of community sanitation in preventing disease and promoting healthful living condi- tions was stressed by Warren J. Scott, Director, Bureau of Sanitary Engineering, in the weekly broad cast of the Connecticut State De- partment of Health.
 Tt is only by joint concern as to the sanitation of the entire com munity that decent and clean en- vironment can be provided" said MT. Scott. Publicly operated sew craze, garbage and refuse disposal systems as well as periodic housing surveys are essential to the promo tion of healthful living conditions. The war has curtailed many public works projects but in the change over to peace time basis such pro- grams will provile employment for many service men and women. En- gineering surveys to determine methods and costs involved in pro- viding needed sanitation works should be conducted now as an aid to postwar progress"
 In built.up localities with poor soil conditions or crowded lots, pub. lie sewers can solve the difficult problem of preventing the trans mission of infectious material from overflowing cesspool or septic tank systems. Treatment of public sew age will avoid nuisances and prevent the pollution of nearby bathing beaches or shellfish areas.
 Garbage and refuse disposal is difficult for city dwellers for crowd ed conditions make individual burn. ing and burial operations impractic- al. Publicly controlled collection and disposal systems provide a more economical and efficient method than can be obtained from the em- ployment of scavengers who only serve individuals.
 Recent housing surveys in Con- necticut have revealed conditions under which decent, healthful living is scarcely permitted. Badly over crowded tenements. poorly lighted and ventilated rooms, improper fire escapes, structural hazards, insani- tary plumbing and many other fac- tors can be eliminated by correction al programs and by careful com- munity planning for future housing developments.

AMERICAN LEGION
 CONVENTION OPENS
Governor Baldwin De- cIares Conn. Will Care
 for War Veterans

Eastern Point, Conn, June A - CUP)-The American Legion settled down to the business of its third wartime state convention here to- day after hearing Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin declare that Connecticut was ready to take care of it's vet erans as they returned from the war.
 Addressing the 26th annual con- vention of the delegates last night, the governor told them that while the federal CT bill of rights lis very inclusive" and that the government will provide for the returning vet- erans to some extent" we feel, how ever, that the boys will wish to re- turn to their home towns and the plan of the Connecticut reemploy- ment commission which created more than a year ago, is to provide them with training for jobs in their own community"
 The Selective Service act, he said, guarantees a veteran his old job, ''but 1t is my opinion that many will not want to go back to their old jobs. It is the program of the com- mission to help them find those to their liking and those to which they are best fitted"
 The convention was prepared to elect Herbert L. Emmanuelson, orange, senior vice commander, as state commander, and Mrs. Inez Kashman, Hartford. as president of the auxiliary. Mrs. Kashman is chairman of the rehabilitation conn mittee.
 Delegates also were prepared to support the candidacy of Mrs. Helen Gilbert, Norwich, as National Presi- dent of the auxiliary at the National Convention.

to set up its business at the corner of Highland avenue, and Lawlor street, section where business es- tablishments are forbidden by ordi- nance. Seeking change in this ordinance members of the Stokes establishment last night appeared before public hearing conducted by members of the committee con- sisting of Aldermen Martin Tehan, James Lynch and James Abercrom- bic. Tn addition the company pre- sented petition in their behalf signed by lo8 proponents of the change.
 Opponents of the plan who like wise were present vigorously op- posed the move stating that if the restriction was to be lifted the neighborhood would soon flourish with business establishments of all types.
 The stokes management was rep resented by Attorney John Gaffney and Attorney Clarence Balands with Attorney Gaffney pointing out that the Supreme Court at one time ruled that undertaking is not bus mess but that moticians should be classified as professional men,"
 Attorney Edward Traurig and At torney Francis Mcdonald represent ed the opponents to the plan chief including members of the Pritcharc family who sold most of the land 1T that area including the site now 1T question all of which is subject tt building restrictions of IS years.
 One of the Stokes representative. stated that they had invested $32,' 900 in the house now in question with the idea of subsequently, estab. fishing their business there. Oppon- ents cited this as being a bad in- vestment resulting in the urgent need of the funeral people to es- tablish their business there for the sake of realizing on the investment
 So vigorous did the dispute be- tween the opponents and proponents become that for moments during the meeting the original issue was lost while disputants became in- volved in issues bordering on neigh borhood personalities and racial matters. MT. Lynch rapped for or- der repeatedly and warned speak CTS away from such matters.
 The committee which was un. able to decide on the matter last night stated that it will review the facts again and report to the full board of aldermen at its next meet ing July 3.
