 Remangen Bridgehead, Germany, March 15.-(UP)--"Its worse than a hornets nest in the middle of holland twice as hot"
 He was an ack-ack gunner, step. ping down from the platform Of his 00-MM gun. A German plano had just nosed in over the bridge- head area. It set off one of the greatest concentrations of anti-air.' craft fire ever maSSed.
 This was one of the scores of Nag. planes out to try to cut the Re. magen bridge. Most of them have ben shot down or driven off be- fore they could do any damage.
 The big guns are banging from positions on the east bank of the Rhine. The trucks are going over. The infantry out on the rim Is flaming toward the superhighway. beyond which the Germans are dug in.
 Everything is moving east. Every. thing except the ambulances that crawl painfully along the she'll pocked roads and over to the west side of the Rhine.
 There were more ambulances and fewer trucks and guns here on the east side yesterday, and the day be- fore-and the day before that. Then 1t was hell here bowling, blazing hell.
 It is another Anzio, except there is more stuff flying through the dust-fogged air.
 There is the criss-cross artillery

Washington, March 16. UP)- Sometimes a feller is too big hearted for his own good. Like s. Clay Will Hams, chairman of the board of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co.
 Manufacturers of Camel Cigar cites :" He said in beginning his testimony before the senate's g banking and currency committee.
 You bring any with you?" de- manded Sen Robert F. Wagner of New York, the gray-haired chair man.
 "Uh" said Williams, fumbling through the pockets of his blue serge suit, T think so."
 He produced one package of Camels, fresh. unopened, and glean- ing in cellophane. He tossed said pack upon the big mahogany table He testified that the OPA was a wonderful thing, except for what 1t was doing to the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Go.
 The firm had to throw out $6,0O0,- 900 worth of advertising last year, he said. to give the stockholders a moderate dividend. OPAs fault, he added.
 The senators had their eyes on those camels, all but Sen. Glen H. Taylor. the Idaho crooner, who puffed 8 cigar until 1t paroduced sparks along with the smoke, like Vesuvius Williams avoided this sight, finished his testimony strug- gled vainly to rezipper his brief case. and walked away.
 Remaining on the expanse of mahoganey was his pack of Camels glistening under the crystal can- delabra.
 Came M. O. Ryan of the Amer ican Hotel association to agree that the OPA was fine, except for what 1t was doing to the hotel business. He spied those Camels. As he talked about how hotels were going broke under price regulations, he fondlcd the package.
 The senators kept a watch on him. So did the press. So did the committee clerks. Ryan demanded relief for the hotels. He let 60, re- luctantly, of those Camels.
 They still were there. with 100 eyes focused on them, when Sen. Claude Pepper of Florida turned up as the next witness. He. said the OPA was good for the Florida fruit growers. He said he hoped the committee wouldn't change the law. He toyed with those Camels.
 He would have been beaned if he swiped 'em and he knew 1t. He put 'em down and walked out That ended the hearing. Those Camels stayed on the table.

RECRUIT WOMEN
 AS TECHNCIANS
WACS Offer Opportunities to Young Women to Serve
 During Emergency

The Nurses Recruitment Commit tee of the local chapter of the American Red Cross has been re- quested to recruit medical and sur gical technicians for service in the WACs to assist general Army hos pital companies, Mrs. Howard Hart, chairman of the local committee, announced.
 Secretary of War Henry L. Stim- son recently appealed to the cen- tral committee of the American Red Cross to exercise their aid in re- cruiting 5000 women which are Vtally needed for duty in military hospitals.
 MT. Stimson further urged that women who have trained as nurse s aides consider service as medical or surgical technicians. since their medical training eliminates further study at medical centers. The War Department, MT. Stimson said, will continue to recognize certificate of graduation from a Red Cross Nurses Aid training course as a sub- stitute for training given in the Medical Department Technician school.
 Holders of such certificates will be eligible for direct assignment to hospital duty after satisfactory completion of basic training, as well as enlisting for direct assignment to one of the specifically named Army general hospitals for which the service command has been authorized to recruit.
 To speed up the recruiting of nurses for military duty in this dis trict. Lieut.. Stevens, Army Nurse corps, will be in Waterbury Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, to personally interview nurses now classified as IA, Miss Alice Anderson, director of Red Cross home nursing announced to- day. Lieut.. Stevens will authorize physical examinations for all nurses whose applications are now pend- ing.
 Following meeting of the of iicers Of the Nurses Recruitment of the Red Cross this af- ,ernoon, the time and place where Lieut.. Stevens will conduct such in- ,erviews will be announced.

KEEP ON THE JOB
 WARNS DIRECTOR
Public Showing Fatal Care. IesSness on Receipt of
 Good War News

State Manpower Director William J. Fitzgerald of the War Manpow- CT Commission today appealed to war workers to stay on the job de- spite the continued good reports from the European and Pacific war theaters declaring that he would ont like to see . repetition of August "" Day reports which caused a sharp slump in war production when too many workers transfer red from essential war jobs to po- Sitions with peace-tirne prospects.
 We are rejoicing on this good news which is announced daily tell ing of the remarkable progress made by our soldiers not only on the threshold of Germany but also within close proximity of Japan. However, while victory is apparent it must be remembered that we must continue the production of new equipment, additional muni- tions to insure the final collapse of Germany"
 The state director said that even should Germany collapse within the near future he appealed to the workers to continue their fine ef- forts until such time that Generals MacArthur and Eisenhower tell us that 1t is all over.
 T believe that when the collapse of Germany comes and should it come during our Lenten period, it would be well for all of us to go to church and pray that Heaven spared us from the monstrosities which engulfed the peoples of Flu rope. We still have a big production job ahead of us and even though Germany will collapse within brief time let us not forget that the yellow hordes" of Japan are still our bitter enemies and that we must continue to supply our fighting forces with ammunition to crush them. Again I appeal to all war workers to stay on the job until we are told officially that it is all oVer.'

EIMPLOYES RETURN
 TO WORK ATP.:A.
Conference Held Today to Eliminate Cause of Work
 StOppage

Efforts to determine the causes Of the dispute which resulted in a work stoppage yesterday by 250 em- ployes of the Plume & Atwood Mfg, Co.,, were being made this morning at a joint meeting of labor and management represented according. ly by Ovide Garceau of the CIO and Gordon Hurlburt, vice-president o{ the company.
 Meanwhile all employees had re- turned to work this morning pend- ing negotiations.
 The company was bitterly scored by John J. Mankowski, CI.O. dis trict board member, yesterday for what he termed was its attitude of delay" in negotiating on a proposed wage increased scale for employees.
 The union executive deplored the tactics of the workers in acting as they did, but stated he could not blame them for being provoked. Management representatives de- clined to comment other than to state that every effort will be made to define the differences.
 Taking issue with the company's attitude towards labor relations. MT. Mankowski declared the firm has deemed this safe time, be- cause of the no-strike pledge, 'to test the patience of the employees to the limit" Plume & Atwood, he asserted, seems to think that the pledge relieves employers of re- sponsibility in labor relations.
 This is the second work stoppage in Waterbury within week. Last Thursday Farrel Foundry & Ma chine Co. halted production for 2 day in protest against the hiring of non-union worker in the lathe Although 1t was learned last night that the griev- ance has been settled, 1t could not be aScertained whether the worker was discharged or transferred to another department.

BANK 0VERRULED
 IN ACTION HERE
Demurrer in $6,OOO Civil Action Dismissed By
 Judge McEvOy

Superior Court Judge Frank P. McEvoy yesterday afternoon over ruled demurrer filed by the First National Bank & Trust company of New Haven in the $6,000 civil &C., ton brought against 1t and the Con- necticut Savings bank of New Ha- ven by Mary E. Boardman and her daughter, Dr. E. Irene Boardman Kathan, both of Prospect.
 The two women bring the suit to recover funds taken from their account at the savings bank by Roy Brown, former owner of convales- cent home in Cheshire who Is now serving prison sentence on forgery counts.
 The plaintiffs claim the savings bank preached It's contract by issu- ing 8 5000 check to Brown when 1t allegedly knew or should have known no valid withdrawal order was presented. The check to Brown was drawn by the savings bank on the national bank, the other defendant.
 Mrs. Boardman resided at the convalescent home when the bank transaction was made by Brown. The home operator was given withdrawal slip for $75, the sum due him, and changed the figure to 5000 before he presented the slip and bank book to bank clerk
 Judge McEvoy in his memoran- dunn points out the demurrer rais- es the issue of whether the plain tiffs were either holders or posses sors in the check transaction. He states that to decide the demurrer and the rights of the parties on that narrow issue in view of the present state of the pleadings would l be to deny the plaintiffs the right of trial.
