10000 PRISONERS ARE
FREED FROM JAPANESE

Atsugi Airdrome, Tykyo-More
than 10000 Allied prisoners of
war were released from Japanese
camps on Honshu and Hokkaido
by the Fifth Air Force in four
weeks, air force officers said. Cen
eral MacArthur's Headquarters
reported that three-fourths of all
prisoners liberated on the two big
islands were evacuated by air.
The job was done in half the
time previously estimated neces-
sary. So constant was the flow of
American planes into this process
ing center that the flimsy, Japa-
nese-built concrete runway was
badly chewed up by the approx
mately $500 landing and $500
takeoffs by heavy transport planes
since the Allied occupation began.

Sunny Denver said all right, and walked
out past Lorry, scarcely looking at her. She
was pretty girl She looked businesslike.
The door closed; there was just Lorry,
Lester and Mike now. No one spoke, until
Mike said, awkwardly: II - didn't want
you to see this place. It's awfully crummy."
He was frightfully embarrassed.
AND Lorry remembered Testers words:
1t was she who had been stranger in the
house. She who hadn't been the same! How
could she have been so blind that she hadn't
realized that? He'd returned from war, but
she'd continued life just as though he were
still gone! She'd made him feel useless, in
the way. She'd robbed him of his initiative,
killed his enthusiasm -- and with it she'd
killed his love for her.
1t was she who needed rehabilitation, not
he! When men returned from war; it was
time for women to come home again - for
lady bus drivers, lady taxicab drivers and
lady executives to step down and become

Armed Forces Paid Tribute By McMuI1on
 Senotor Speaker
 At ToFrinston
 cIo Dinner

Torrington, August 25-Enfct- ment into law of an economic bill of rights was advocated by U. s. Sem stor Brien McMahor as the surest method of it1suring domestic secur- ity in an address before the Tor rington CTO at g dinner at the Conley inn here last night.
 When President Truman assumed office, Senator McMahon pointed out, he was faced with she problem of deciding whether to press for immediate action on international or domestic issues.
 Because this nation has been devoted to realizing the great ideal of international security for the purpose of guaranteeing world peace through cooperation with the other freedom loving nations of the earth" Senator McHahon said, President Truman chose to pursue the policy of concentrating on the international issues. The fact that the San Francisco conference al- ready was about to be held was also, I believe, a determining factor.
 Record Achievements
 "The result was three months of the greatest achievements on the international front in American his- tory. We saw passage of the reci- procal trade agreements program, passage of the bill for American participation in the Breton Woods program, ratification of the United Nations Charter, expansion of the loaning powers of the Export-Im- port bank, and approval of Ameri- can participation in the Food and Agriculture Organization of the Unit ed Nations. It is great record, one of which every American has every reason to be proud" The achievement of American Armed Forces, along with our allies, has been equally sensational, Sena- tor McMahon observed, leading to the unexpectedly rapid continuation of the war.
 'Now we are prepared to work out our reconversion program" he said, 'and fortunately, the blue print al- ready exists in the economic bill of rights which was enunciated in January, 1944. In his budget mes- sage last January, President Roose- welt amplified this program to in- clude the readjustment of our ad- ministrativA machinery for the handling of labor disputes in the post-war period. have already prepared the preliminary draft of such a bill, which I will submit to the senate soon after the end of the recess. We must put to practical use the lessons in labor-manage- ment cooperation which we have learned in this war"
 Domestic Security Urged
 The United States must have prosperity and domestic security if the dream of world peace through international security is to succeed, he pointed out.
 T am confident that President Truman will bring this great dream to successful realization" said Sen- ator McMahon, "just as he has al- ready carried out our program on the international front"
 Senator McMahon also spoke at a bazaar given on the St. Francis church grounds here to raise money to rebuild the Catholic church in Harwinton. The church was de- stroyed by fire last winter.

their choice of filing for either state or federal unemployment ben- efits.
 This latter provision is effective immediately, MT. Graham said, while the law concerning depend- ency allowances becomes effective Oct. l, and the increase of benfit weeks from IS to 20 becomes eff fective Jan. l, 1946.
 Connecticut will be one of the three or four states in the entire country providing for supplemental dependency benefits. In addition to the regular benefit amount, two dollars for each dependent, up to three, will now be paid, effective Oct. 1, for each week of compens- able unemployment.
 This brings the maximum week. iy amount payable under Connecti- cut law to $28, which is the highest in the country, well above the av- craze maximum payable in other states. and $3 a week higher than the present contemplated national plan of President Truman.
 The minimum weekly payment has been increased from $6 to $8.
