LIFE IL WONDERFUL.
Is Theme Of New Campaign

To-day We are at peace again.
our boys are returning. our demo
cratic institutions have been say
ed. And out OF the war have come
new developments for making life
better.
Many of the ways in which life
is wonderful are expressed in a
series OF advertisements by G.
Schmidt and Sons. Inc. large Phil
adelphia brewer With scarcely a
word of copy. these advertisements
bring out how people react to the
new inventions that surround us
For example: the expression on a
mans face as he fishes from his
amphibian airplane. the bride 5
smile as she is being carried over
the threshold into Il supermOderu

pletp with fur coat and pelnant
roofing for his team as he watches
the game through telcNiSion. what
it feels like to lie in bed reading
Il book projected ON the ceiling
from u micrOiilm.
In brief each advertisement is
a chapter in the adventure Of mod
crn living. humOrOusly or WhimSi-
cally told at a glance.
These smiling touches of modern
life are more than mere advertise
ments. They are constant remind
erS that We live in an amazing age
unlike any other i'll the worlds

if We wish. make this an age O
new ease of living. new speed il

Farmers Urged To Put Extra
Cash Into Mnr Bonds

Farmers can protect themselves
against any possible price collapse
after this war by investing their
high income dollars in War Bonds.
This argument will be directed to
farm people during the Victory
Loan campaign which starts Octo-
ber %.
Treasury officials point out that
bank deposits OF farmers are more
than three times as large as in
1871. BY putting more OF this mon
ey in War Bonds, farmers will
build up cash reserves against lean
years. Secretary of Agriculture
Clinton T. Anderson also recon

Industrial Sugar AllOtment>
Remain Unchanged

Industrial users will get no more
sugar in the fourth quarter than
in the third quarter OF the 1913
calendar year. according to OPA.
Rationing rates for industrial us
trs 80 per cent of the 1871 base
for candy makers, 60 per cent for
bakers. and 40 per cent for phar-
maceutical manufacturers remain
unchanged. Less sugar will actu-
ally be used by industry because
commercial canning will be cur
tailed.
Poultry And Egg Situation
Poultry and Egg Situation fol
October. according to the United
States Department of Agriculture
is as follows: Overall demand fol
poultry products in 1916 will de
cline from the high levels reached
in l945. This will be due to in
creased supplies of meat for ci
villains. smaller non-civilian tax
ings of poultry products. and re
duCtiOnS in consumer income
Prices received by farmers for egg;
will decline materially and may b'
near support levels during most o
the year; the extent OF the decline
will depend in large part on eXpOr
demand Prices received for chick
ems and turkeys, on the other hand
probably will be only moderated

named for redeployment. Hodges brought his headquarters over to this country and established it at Fort Jackson, S. c. The headquar- ters is still there though Hodges personally is not present.
 These circumstances suggest that the 1st Army's orders may be changed and it may never be re- deployed. The decision, however, probably will be held in abeyance until MacArthur learns what he will encounter in Japan. Speculation to- day is that if there is no trouble there will be no First Army in the Pacific.
 The 10th Army under command of Gen. Joseph w. Stilwell will oc- cupy the Ryukyus and the 24th Corps under It. Gen. John R. Hodge will go into Korea, Macarthur in dicated.
 Of the areas marked for occupa- tion this would leave only one inl- portant geographical area not taken care of--namely Kyushu and the inland sea area.
 Over-AM Command
 This might well be the assign ment of Gen. Walter Krueger's 9th Army now in the Philippines. The Philippines, as the big Allied sup ply base. could be left under the command of It. Gen. Wilhelm D. Styer, commander of American forces in the western Pacific. It was significant that he was designated to accept the Japanese surrender in the Philippines.
 From an administrative stand point it would appear MacArthur's three armies plus the 24th corps would be all that were required. If there were to be large forces in China this situation might be dh- ferent.
 Whether Macarthur planned to send an American Army to China was never disclosed, though there was wide speculation to that effect. The end of Japan's resistance elim- mates the need for any such force which may have been the lst Army's assignment.

 Judge Quinlan. however, did not uphold the contention that Mc- Carthy was entitled to a full four year term. He said. it was up to l047 legislature to ratify success sor. upon nomination by the Gov ernor.
 The Supreme Court decision will have an important influence on another similar case affecting the office of State statute Revision Commissioner.
 Similar Situation
 Under identical circumstances the Governor appointed Elmer w. Ryan a New Haven Republican, to succeed John M. Bailey, Hartford Democrat, after the Senate refused ratification of Ryan's nomination.
 No litigation was started, how ever, inasmuch as the Mccarthy Watson case already was in the court and it was a direct parallel to the Ryan Bailey conflict. Both Ryan and Bailey are hold ing office as State Revision Com- missioner.

ployment Service said last night that nearly 100000 workers had been thrown out of their jobs since Japan's surrender two weeks ago.
 Goodwin said in radio broad- cast (ABC) that layoffs in Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Fran cisco and Newark, N. J., totaled more than 50,O00 each in what he termed .'the worst period from the standpoint of displacements."
 He said, however, that first re- ports also indicate substantial tob openings in many areas. though at considerably reduced wages.
 The Full Employment Bill seeks a national goal of jobs for every one willing and able to work.

.Tox Relief 
ccontinued from Page I,


 One informed source seid Con- |gressional and treasury tax experts are studying Q proposal to revise the present system of surtax exc emptions SO exemption would give equal benefit to all tax brackets. Un- der the present system increasing the exemption by ei00 would cut the tax bill of taxpayer in the 80 per cent bracket by 900. The corresponding reduction for . tax payer in the 26 per cent bracket would be $25.
 Under the proposal being studied each taxpayer would compuete his gross tax bill with no exemptions. From that total he would deduct a fiat amount, for example $10O, for each dependent. A change In ex- emptions would result in change in the credit for dependents and would make recomputAtion of the simplified withholding tax table unnecessary.
 Tn the field of business taxes 1t seemed probable that the 06 per cent war time excess pronts tax will be abandoned completely Ja1i- uary l. Chairman Mariner s. Eccles of the Federal Reserve board has urged retention of a reduced excess profits levy on the grounds that such profits in the immediate postwar period would stem directly from war conditions. It was doubt- ed, however, that Congress viii ac. cept that view.
 Committee members expect an ate tempt to be made to cut the pres- ent combination norma1-surtax rate of 40 per cent. Heavy opposition was forecast, however.
 Inasmuch as corporations, unlike individuals, will pay taxes on l945 income next year, efforts may be made to give some business re- troactive tax relief on 1945 taxes. Congress recently rejected 6 pro- posal to make an increased excess profits tax exemption effective re- troactively to last January l.

Employment in Mfg.
 Compared With 1943

A schedule of plants employed in manufacturing and mechanical pro- duction shows an increase since 1923 of 10% in the number of such plants in the entire state. For the same period, Waterbury had an increase of 6 plants or a percentage of 3.5%.
 City's Share Large
 Waterbury is shown as having IS of, the 182 plants in the entire state which employs more than 500 per- sons. In the case of this city, how ever, there are IS individual plants but nine corporations to exceed this number of workers for branches of the large brass companies are tabu- lated individually.
 The IS plants thus listed include four divisions of American Brass Co.,, the Main Plant, Metal Hose Division, French Small Tub e Branch and the Brass Goods Branch. Three branches of Chase Brass are listed, the Thomaston avenue plant, Rolling MIL Division and Waterbury Mfg. Go. Both the Aurora street and Thomaston ave- nue plants of Waterbury Tool Go. are included in the list and other Waterbury manufacturers in this classification are Benrus Watch Co. Inc. The Bristol O., the Lux Clock Mfg. Co, Scovill Mfg. O., United States Time Corp, Waterbury Com parlieS Inc, Waterbury Farrel Foundry and Machine Co.
 The United States Time Corp. plant in Middlebury and two plants of United States Rubber Go in Naugatuck are also listed as employing more than 800 persons.

being planned, he said, the Army dispatched service units. Now, the need is for combat units instead, he explained.
 Future Strength
 On next July 1, Edward predicted, Army strength will be as follows: 370,000 troops in Europe; 83O,0O0 in the Pacific; 1l5,O00 in Alaska, the Caribbean and other islands: and 1,185, 900 in the United States. The troops in this country, he said, will include Strategic striking" reserve of 100000; 1000 operational per- sonnel and 500,000 non-operating personnel.
 Edwards explained that the July date was selected simply because 1t is the end of the fiscal year. He said July was "the most advanced date for which we can plan" and the 100000 total was "the lowest strength we can reasonably oh. tain by that date."
 ! The army will continue to reduce after next July l. but probably not at "the extremely high rate" be- tween now and then. It is impossible. he said, to deter mine the arrny's final strength now. He said all National Guard units are expected to be completely de. mol Gized by next July l.
 Men, drafted since VIE day. are being trained and eventually will re- lieve higher point soldiers. The arny's pilot training program will continue on a reduced and re- stricted basis" he said. Some committee members indicat. ed they favored trying to meet the armys postwar manpower needs through voluntary recruiting as wal department official were called te testify.
 Other Developments
 Other developments on the mill. tary manpower front included:
 l. Chairman James M. Mead, D. N. F., of the senate war investiga. ting committee demanded that thu army announce without delay 1t plans for lowering its point SCOT, and automatic discharge age. 2. The Navy announced an In crease in the number of men 1t vii discharge during the next year an. said 1t hoped to modify its poin discharge system within the nex two months to give credit for over seas service.
 The Navy encouragement that planned to shave it's present strengtl of 3.389.000 to $50. .000-500. 900 of ficers-by Sept. l. 1946. was a sub stantial cut from previously an nounced plans to discharge 1.500, ,00 to 2,500.000 men in the same period
 The new reduction would tota 2.839. 900 men in a years time.
