Jane Balfe, st. Francis xaVlef student, recently won c prine in g contest sponsored by C0nulunlty Chest, Inc, for the best letter of 2 scriblng the work done by the # social agencies supported by fne Waterbury Community Chest aI1q War Fund.
 Jane received s26 bond from the Catholic Women's Council. MaF- tin Miller, a student of washing ton school was also awarded &25 bond for his letter by the War Fund coila~ mittee.
 Jane's letter was as follows: Dear Joan:--
 Dad wears e red feather in his hat. No, 1t isn't the red feather of victory worn by the knights of old. Nor is 1t the red feather awarded by the chief to his most fearless brave.
 Dads red feather signifies his cooperation with the clinics. hos- pitals, day nurseries, home, youth, and veteran services through his contribution to the Community Chest drive.
 Dad seems to have paid more than that tiny red feather is really worth, but in reality 1t is Q small amount when one realizes the infinite amount of good re- ceived from his donation right here at home, to say nothing of the brighter hours brought to battle weary servicefnen in the far flung corners of the earth.
 Lastly, Dads contribution is used to nurse those countries rav- aged by war back to health, hap piness and prosperity.
 Dad will give again this year to the Community Chest. and will continue to give each year, that the youth of America may return from the far flung battle fronts to take their place in our coni- munities. Sincerely yours,
 JANE.

Applications for Canning
Sugar Must Be Made
Before August 4th

District OPA Director L. M. A. Wass
this week announced that all persons de-
string to secure any sugar for home can
ming this year must make application to
the local War Price and Rationing Board
by Saturday, August 4th. After that
date, Mr.. Wass stated, no applications
will be accepted or acted upon.
The District OPA director pointed out
that the final date for home canning
sugar applications was set early in August
in order that OPA might determine the
exact amount of sugar issued for home
canning, and in turn determine how
much, if any, sugar still remained avail
able for distribution Thus, if any addi-
tional sugar is available, it can be issued
in time for the canning of fruits which
ripen during the latter part of August
and September If this sugar is avail
able it will be distributed fairly by each
local board to those persons who have
shown a genuine need for more sugar
than it was possible to issue under the
former limited allotment

WLB CHAIRMAN Is
MENTOR TO WAGE
CUTTING EMPLOYERS

CHICAGO. 49, (FP) - Acting on ADVICE
freely handed out by Chairman George
W. Taylor of the National War Labor
Board, employers here are attempting to
use a downgrading device to provide
themselves with plenty of cheap labor.
The device is very simple. All an en-
ployer has to do is reclassify his en-
ployes downward, lay off the workers in
the higher wage brackets and rehire them
at the lower minimum rate. The tech
nique was explain by Taylor in a recent
speech before the Chicago Association Of
Commerce
"a considerable amount of doWngrad-
ing and reclassification of employees is to
be expected as a normal aspect of the
reconversion period" Taylor blandly told
the businessmen. Il emphasize that this
process and similar ones mean that wages
paid to the average employe for an hours
work will go down in many cases with
out any change in the wage rate sched-
ules."
Taylor said he had a report on his
desk showing that one large segment of
an industry employing thousands OF
workers has only eight employees classi-
fled as common laborers." 1t actually
continues to use plenty of common labor
ers as in the past but they are all classi-
fled as higher-rated helpers or utility
men," he pointed out.
Taylor said he didn't know of "any
employers who propose to reduce basic
wage rate schedules but added: "They
will still pay a common labor rate Of,
say, Csc per hour, and a helper rate of,
say, roc per hour But instead Of set
up of 10 helpers for one common laborer,
the assignments may become, for ex-
ample, 10 common laborers for each
helper"
one of the first plants here to take
Taylor's hint was the Foote Bros. Gear
& Machine Co., which has contract
with United Electrical Radio g. Machine
workers (CIO) The management de-
manded that the workers sign yellow

dog contracts reducing their classitica-

about 40 workers were fired but speedy
union action got them reinstated.
The bump and rolf reclassifieation
system continues to be the order of the
Gay, with the company resisting observ-
ance Of seniority and arbitration clauses
n its union contract and telling union
officials that the honeymoon is over"
Rumors that the company will shut down
all its Chicago plants in the near future
are spread each time the company goes
OF on another bump and roll" spree.
These rumors we're scotched by the
union in a stewards message which said
that the company is retooling its plants
for the production of civilian gears and
installing new machinery. The union re-
ported that it has reliable information
that company plans call for about 1000
workers on production Of civilian gears
alone, adding, of course, the company
isn't handing this information out to the
workers"
Warning workers not to become de
moralized, the message demanded: why
is the company first soaring us into
thinking Wen have no jobs, or very few
of them here-and when it thinks it has
us scared and licked, 60 ahead and
downgrade and bump and roll?'
Wouldn't it be just swell if they could
get all the highest paid people around
here to quit in disgust? Then they could
hire at low rates. pretty good trick, eh,
to prepare for better peacetime profits
at our expense? This is being tried in
many plants all over the country Where
the workers aren't clear-headed, and
haven't a strong union, they fall for it
and it works Wages are cut. Companies
try to smash the union. Some places,
they try to bring back the company
