Control Act

:. WASHINGTON, Feb. 22-(P)
~ A manpower control bill with
heavy Jail and fine penalties di-
fected against offending employ
ers was reported favorably today
by the Senate Military Commit
re.
/. Unlike the House approved
work or Jail bill, il would not
assess such penalties against
workers who refused to take es-
Sential jobs, Chairman Thomas

/: Eleven members Of the COM
mittee who were present voted
to send the bill out to the Sem
ate floor; four voted against do
:ing so. Senator Bridges (R-NH)
WAS at another committee meet
ing and did not vote. Senators
Wagner (D-N.Y.) and Thomas

unexpectedly yesterday w h n
-four members were absent.

Rains Increase
Peril Of Flood
Tons of Water
Swell Clinton

The onrush of millions of tons
Of rainwater, spread three-quar-
tiers of an inch deep during the
past "a hours over the Clinton
River Valley, and threatening to
cause serious flood conditions at
Mount Clemens, appeared safely
slowed at noon today by falling
temperatures and predictions OF
freezing.
From $50 a. M, Wednesday
until $50 a. m, today, official
recordings revealed a rainfall OF
rs inches which. although not
heavy in itself, is unusual for
this month. Such steady rains
are expected in March.
The Clinton River drains an
area of 76l square miles contain
ing population of 250,000-al-
though only comparatively
small percentage of this popula-
ton lives in the flood area near
Mount Clemens. The menace OF
flood in the 50-mile-long river
is accumulated by a fall of 425
feet from the headWaters to the
mouth, and the sharp bends in
the river which cause an over
flow at Mount Clemens.
Wednesdays rainfall was the
heaviest Of the year, and, il con-
tinued, experts said, would have
caused disastrous flood. Wheth-
or or not freezing conditions will
now solve Cor merely defer) the
problem, will depend on the ex-
tent Of snow flurries also prom
ised by the weatherman. A SUBJ
stantial snowfall, to be follow
ed by the usual March rains, may
mean a more serious flood than
any that could have occurred at
this time, a veteran flood observ-
or said.
The only serious effect OF the
heavy rainfall was on traffic and
communications. All roads were
dangerous, especially ice-cover-
ed country roads narrow in
width. Many minor accidents
were reported. Ice accumulations
on power and telephone wires
gave utilities some concern, and
communications were disrupted
elsewhere. However no serious
trouble was reported in the
Mount Clemens area.

Big business must earn the right to remain big by producing at lower cost or by giving the consumer better goods at the same cost while maintaining and improving work ing conditions for their employees in harmony with the American stand ard of life"
 Wallace said it had become al- most impossible for new, small en- terprises to obtain capital and that the government should assist them in obtaining capital from private in- VeStors.
 Ut Is important to do 80 without fostering ill-conceived. ill-advised and highly speculative ventures and without putting the government in business" he said.

Col. ThOs. Hewes Relates Experiences in Book, De-
 CentraIize for Liberty

Colonel Thomas Hewes, of HarN- ford and Lyme, who formerly was assistant secretary of the U. & Treasury and special assistant to the secretary of State of the United States, has written a book on econ~ omics and government that will b0 off the press late this month.
 The book titled "Decentralize for Liberty" presents the case for achieving full employment based on expanding production, widespread ownership of business, homes, farms and savings, and individual oppor- tunity. all proceeding from the de- centralization of production, tho ownership of proouclng facilities. population and government. His plan rests upon one central assump- ton - that full employment and inc diVidual opportunity cannot arise. or be maintained, under the present American economy supported by tax ing and spending, but that these goals can be won through economic and political decentralization and the enforcement of the free market.
 Colonel HeWes, who is senior part- ner in the Hartford Washington law firm of Hewes. Prettyman ai1d Await, has drawn the material for his book from his 30 years experiA ence in business and government.
 In Conencticut, he has been . member of the General Assembly. Civil Service Commission, Statute Revision Commission, Commission to Reorganize State Departments. the Park and Forest Commission and the Judicial Council. He was the coordinator of relief agencieAI following the hurricane of 1888, and in 1943 was chairman of the Con- necticut War Finance Committee.

NORA FAUCHALD
 TO SING SUNDAY
Prominent Lyric Soprano SOIist in Sunday Alter
 noon Concert

WatertoWn, Feb. The Taft School presents Miss Nora Fauch- aid, outstanding Norwegian -Ameri- can soprano. in the second of it's Sunday afternoon concert series, February 4th.
 Miss Fauchald's recital Contri- butes greatly to the high artistic standard of that series. The grac- ious charm of her personality com bined with her unusual musical gifts and finished vocal artistry establishes an immediate bond be- tween her and her audiences and never fails to win them completely.
 Winner of New York Philhar- monic addition and of Juilliard fellowship for European operatic study, she received glowing tributes from critics in Germany. Austria and CZcchoslovakia for her rccitals and operatic performances. She has sung in all but two of the states of the Union and in many Cana dian cities. Two transcontinental tours and five summers with Sousa and his famous band indicate the versatility of her art. Her concerts at Decrneld, Hotchkiss. PaWling, St. Georges and Taft schools and her record with outstanding mems vocal organizations are a measure Of the breadth of appeal of her interpre- tations: The MendelSsohn Glee club of New York has engaged her twice and the University Glee Club of that city has invited her to be soloiSt in three concerts.
 In addition to her many appear ances at the Taft School people in the Waterbury district. have heard her aS soloist with the Waterbury Civic Symphony, the Civic Chorus, the Combined High School orches- tras and in concerts for the Junior league, Cercle Francais, Burns club and the Mattatuck Musical Art so- ciety.

Since 70 per cent of the bulk of money orders during the past SeV- eral years have been for amounts under $10, the postal note was re- gently designed as Q safe. convenient and economical way of sending through the malls money up to $10 The simplifced form of sale, which does not require applications to i'll out either on the part of the pur- chaser or the clerk, make 1t pos sible to handle the notes at uni form fee of five cents.
 Cashed Anywhere
 Postal notes can be cashed any where in the continental United States within two months of issu- ance. Since the new type of low-cost money order will not be acceptable in U. s. possessions such as Alaska, Hawai- or Guam, Postmaster Babin stressed the point that money orders must be used to send money to men overseas.
 The notes are issued in eleven de- nominations: $1, $2, 8, $4, $5, $6, $8, g, and $l0; and eighteen denomin- ations of stamps arc issued: From one cent through to ten cents and also from 20 cent through to 90 cents.
 A person desiring to send postal note for $495 according to the new plan, is issued a postal note for $4 and q 90 cent stamp and cent stamp is affixed by the clerk. Upon receiving the note, the purchaser merely writes in the name of the payee on the note, detaches his record on which he has recorded the payee's name and mails the note and envelope first class mail
 Low Cost Feature
 The postal note may also prove to be loW-cost method of handling shipments of money of larger amounts, Postmaster Babin, pointed out, since the amount of $60 could be transmitted out of town by postal authorities by the purchase of six $l0 notes, for the aggregate fee Of BOG.
 Notes may also be purchased for stipulated amounts, and the payee's name filled in at persons home or place of business Postmaster Babin stressed the point, however, that postal notes are payable only to the named payee, and cannot be endorsed nor are they transferable.
 Postal notes which are available at the windows of the local post office, are not at this time ob- tainable from rural carriers, though the postal authorities may extend the service in the future
