A DEAL"
(Uew Britain Hcrald)

(Uew Britain Herald)
 Tn Connecticut the word Ideal" as applied to judgeships appointed by the Legislature, has a familiar sound. Deals have come and deals have gone, but the good old ship of state carries on as well as ever before.
 AS matters stand and have stood for a long time, minor judgeship deals are part of the Connections way of life. The law is such as to instigate that way of breaking dead- locks and forming compromises be. tween the two parties. It's you tickle me and I'll tickle you system: and they say 1t will be carried out once again at this session of the states solons.
 It Is not a cynical attitude at all not to fear the results. Experience is Q sound teacher. Just so tho judges are competent and reliable, which customarily is the case.
 The political parties are held re. sponsible: they accept the respon. sibility. and act accordingly. They cannot risk taking chances with poor judgeship material.
 Of course that makes the judges dependent upon political parties; but that usually is the case within any demoncratic system.

ing, Molotov investigated, eX- p.ained that when the BolShcvist government had cleaned out the old Czarist Foreign Office after the revolution, they found q copy of the old Franco-Russinn Pact with the same clause in it, They had preserved 1t ever since as q model of basic Russian foreign policy.
 COUNCIL OF GOVERNORS
 For the first time in four years, the Democrats now control the important Council of state Fov- ernmonts, and Democratic Ma tional Committee Chairman Bob Hannegan is quietly mnnouvering to put Governor J. Howard Me- Grath of Rhode Island In as the next persistent.
 Levcrctt Saltonstall of Massa- chusctts, now senator, was presi- dent of the Council last year the fourth in n line of Republi- cans. For the first time since lo40 there Is Il ajority of Demo- cratic governors, with Democrat Herbert Nav of Utah president this year. Custom in the Coun- Il is to elect n new chief cSccu- tive each year, and young Me- Grath, the only governor now serving his third successive term, ls III line for the honor.
 When Hanne2an and the Rhode Island governor lunched here last week, Hannegan refused to dis c,lSs any details of their meet ing, but what actually happened was that Hannegan gave McGrath his final assurance that the party will support him for head of the Council next year.

CALCIUM AND VITAMIN D

The relation between calcium and vltamln D is similar to that between Bergen and Charlie Mccarthy. Berpcns calcium would be difficult Co nssimilate and retain without Charlie's vitamin D.
 There arc some indications as doctors say, for calcium without Vltamin D. For instance, If you have acid stomach, heartburn, waterbrash or the sense Of fulnesS or bloatlng which the WlseacreS attribute to "gaS" probably you VIII find i've or ten grains of prepared chalk, otherwise known as calcium carbonate, gives relief. It is as nearly harmless to take once or several times day if necessary, as any ant-acld we have,
 For all general or systemic pur- poses, however, 1t is advisable to take some vltamin D with every dose of calcium whether 1t Is cal- cIum carbonate, calcium lactnte, calcium chloride, calcium glucon- ate, di-calcium phosphate or other calcium compound or salt, for cer- tain amount of vitanin D is phy" siologically essential for the asslfn- ilation, utilization and retention of calcium in cells organ and tissues. This principle applies, no matter whether the calcium is required to prevent rickets, softening and decay of teeth, allergic manifestations, nerve-miscle irritability muscle irrltablity, muscle cramps, delayed coagulntion of blood, weak heart beat or high blood pressure.
 Reader K. IT. S. reports: l have been taking calcium and vitamln D and my blood pressure went down from 200 to l58, my general health is much improved and my arthritlS much relieved,
 Reader J. W. Mel reports' The calcium and vitamin D has given me n great lift. My hands were so painful I was unable to knit, ana my ankles so affected l waS' un- steady on my feet, All ls gone now. I'm giving calcium and Vitamln D to my husband now

 "In my opinion, the M-l Rifle (Garand) k the greatest battle implement ever devised.
 However" Patton continued, my admiration for ordnance products does not stop with the M.l Rifle. Our machine guns; mortars, artillery and tanks are without equal on the battle fields of the world"
 STALIN-DE GAULLE
 AGREEMENT
 It hasn't been published, but n significant secret clause was inc corporated in the agreements signed between Stalln and dc 0aulle in Moscow last fall Strangely enough 1t parallels an" other RuSso-F Franco pact signed in 1913 when the Czar, not Stain ruled Russia. And although Sta- iin has now ovcrthrown the Czar he has signed the same thing.
 The secret clause approves q fle ehand for France in the West, and free hand for Russia in the East. Also, 1t pledges Russia to help develop . strong indepcn- dent Poland, friendly to both France and the Soviet Union.
 But the amazing fact about the secret clause k thatt he wording Is identical with . pact signed by the French ambaS- sadOr to the Cxar's Government In 1913.
 A member of de Gaulle's en- tourage thought the wording was so strikingly similar to something he had seen before that he asked Foreign Minister MolotoV where thc Russians got tho word-

There are about 100000 So- viet civilians held as forced lu- borers inside Germany, and theiI status has been the subject of a significant controversy,
 When U. 5. and British Armies first began libcratin2 tncSe work slaves they were held aS prisoners Of war but soon u deluge ot com piaints came from Red Army of- .iccrs and the Russian civilians were being inSulted.
 Whereupon, the Allies Scgrc- gated Russian work battalions and put them into refugee camps where they were given rations similar to that of tho civilian population,
 However, civilian ratiOnS are so meager In France and Bel Euim that the Russians have now reversed themselves and want all Russians captured or liberated by the Allies to be treated as prisoners of war. This means that they will get the same food as German prisoners who get the same ration as the Amcri- can or British armies.
 The whole question of handling displaced people, including slave laborers, refugees, and war priS- oners, is one of the major Allied headaches, Some 10000 900 peo- pie nrc involved
 NOTE: The French, who also complained when the Allied treat ed their repatriated citizens as war prisoners, have now changed their mind, arc pressing the U, S, and Great Britain to treat all -collnborationlst Frcnchmcn freed in Germany as prisoners so they will get Allied rations. BELIEVE TT OR NOT
 The Office Of Defense Trans portatlon, the Army, Navy and the Office of War Mobilization have a joint board which passes on all requests to hold convcn- tons. Last week, believe 1t or not, the ODT spctn the time of important Government officials approving the right of the State Department to hold the United Nations Conference in San Fran cisco.
 RUSSIAN VODKA
 War MobiliHer Jimmie ByrneS has been regaling friends with stories of his mission to Yalta. Byrnes said he sampled Russian vodka for the first time, found that 1t 'speaks . strong language and has lots of authority"
 This recalled to Byrnes friends the first time the late Secretary of the Navy, Prank Knox. came to visit former Ambassador Lit- -vinov at the Soviet Embassy. Lit- viilov proposed toast to the United States. Knox was a little reluctant to down the potent vodka, tried to sip it. Litvinov stopped him and said; "Drink the stuff down In 2 hurry and you will kill the awful taste" GARAND RIFLE ON TOP
 If you ask u. Gen. George Patton, famous TOT ms Jank aI- tacks, what weapon, he consId' cred the most important in the entire war, you would notural- ly expect the answer to be tanks.
 Patton used tanks to make his meteoric charge across France and he used them when he wen, to the rescue of hard-pressed forces In the Belgium bulge.
 But theo ther day. Maj. Gen Levin Campbell, efficient chief Of ordnance, asked Patton that ques- ton while on a tour of the wal fronts, and got q surprising an. swer. Patton didn't think thf tank was the most important weapon of the war, but rather the 0arana Rifle. After considering

This business of apportioning funds to towns as school grants is complex one. We note that confusion exists over a bill now facing the Legislature which is said to increase the amounts to be dis tributed among the towns of the state. We commented on this bill last week. Again we say that school grants are on a basis that was shown to be slightly con- tradictory good many years ago. In determining a towns school population even parochial and private institution pupils are enumerated. And the money distributed by the state is on this basis, but it's use is solely for the public schools
 So what! Nothing, we're just explaining.

can't seem to resist the temptation
of sending the ladies his best Take
it lightly. If he were at all serious
