FUTURE PEACE DEPENDS UPON CLOSE
 HARMONY AT HOME, SAYS BARONESS
BY VERNON EDWARDS
 NEA Staff Writer

New York-The future peace of the world will depend upon the re- vival of close and happy family life, believes Baroness Maria Aug usta von Trapp. The handsome, blonde Austrian noblewoman, who fled from Nazi- dominated Salzburg to America in 1888 with her hus- band and 10 children, says that Hitler feared family unity more than dive bombers.
 To strengthen the family group, which in turn makes the country strong, she says children must be taught responsibility, to work and play harmoniously and to do thinsg for each other.
 Practicing what she breaches the baroness has encouraged each child to learn some handicraft, taught them to cook together, sew together and pray together.
 She and her husband taught their children to sing as soon as they were old enough to carry tune. Their home song fests not only gave them pleasure but their neigh bors as well. They were in constant demand for parties and later were persuaded to make tour.
 Many who heard them wanted to organize their own family mu- sicals, and so the Trapps have planned a program of four 1O- day sings to be held this summer at their camp in Stone, Vt.
 The I-can't- tune guests are favorite pupils. The Traps have them singing within two days. Each is given an ancient end-blown block flute, and before leaving, he is able to play at least several needles.
 If your famiy is not large enough for a diversified musical group, call in the neighbors, suggests the baro- ness. She also thinks that once a bobby sox quartette finds what fun it is to mak. their own music, they won't be tearing off to juke joints.
 Children must also be taught the satisfaction of accomplishment. In her household everyone has chore to perform. They are made to un- derstand that each is spoke in the family wheel and must accept his share of the responsibility.
 The seven girls, who help with the cooking, laundry and clean ing, also give lessons in handi- craft. One daughter has her own printing press and makes linole- um and wood cuts. Another is a sculptress. One has a lathe and makes wooden candlesticks. One jewelry. The one who is a leather worker even makes shoes for her sisters. Two of her there boys are serving overseas in the American Army.
 All of them have so much fun to- gether they'd rather be home than any place else.

Job placements by the 18 offices ot the United States Employment Service of the War Manpower Con- mission totaled 11,721 during May, State Director William J. Fitzger- aid of the War Manpower Commis- sion said today. This was an in- crease of one per cent over the previous month.
 Male placements in May totaled 1881 while some 3,840 women were found jobs for the month. In the previous month male placements ag- gregated 1908 while jobs for 3,701 women were found. This represent ed a decrease for the month in male job placement but minor rise in jobs for women. In addi- ton to the total number of place. ments made in May some 858 place. n.ent assists were recorded.
 Some 10 areas in the state re- ported gains in placements for May. The largest percentage in- crease in placement activity was reported by the Ansonia office of the USES with gain of 37 per cent over April. Bristol ranked second in the state with an in- crease of 30 per cent in placements Of men and women in jobs.
 The WING report shows that 20,- 722 job referrals were made by the 18 offices of the U. s. E. s. in May and resulted in 56.6 per cent place ments as compared with 60 per cent in April. The placement re- ferral ratio varied from AT per cent in Bristol to 77 per cent in Nor walk

air lines combined prior to the war.
 Girdling and criSs-crossfng the globe, ATC routes stretch to more than 166,000 miles - more than six times around the world. They tap every continent. Two thou sand transports fly these routes Before the redeployment plan was projected, ATC planes crossed the Atlantic once every 19 minutes, the Pacific once every 51 minutes, Now a plane will cross the Atlantic every six minutes.
 RUSH B-29 CREWS
 ATC transported more than l. 250000 war-important passengers in 1944, most of them overseas. In April, 1945, ATC carried 188,000 pas sengers, more than 80,000 tons of cargo and mail. It is returning more than 4,000 sick and wounded troops to the States each month, flying each patient on the average of 5000 miles.
 Early in 1943 the North African Division played an important part in expediting men and equipment for the first B-29 bases in China. Personnel at Cages Field, a few miles from Casablanca, worked around the clock for eight weeks to accomplish this gigantic task.
 There are eight foreign Divisions of the ATC and right now the North African is the most important It is in the hands of Brigadier General James s. Stowell, Syra- cuse boy who played considerable tackle for Army in 1921-22-23. Jim- my Stowell now weighs 240 pounds.

and equipment in the North African Division. Many of the bases on Africa's west coast needed large in- creases to cope with new problems. The largest number of passengers flown across the Atlantic to the United States prior to the present operation was $500 in April of this year.
 Dakar, on the west Africa bulge, must now handle 10000 home bound passengers a month. By high priority air cargo, 500 tons of ce- ment were forwarded to this base for the construction of barracks and other equipment needed at busy air terminals. Tents and temporary buildings are not usable at Dakar, which is situated in malaria con- trol area. All buildings had to be constructed on a permanent basis.
 Statistics usually dull, are in this case exciting, especially when interpreted in the light of ac- complishments that help to speed World War II to it's end They demonstrate clearly that the post war dream of global airlines is out of the visionary stage. The Air Transport Command is now operat- ing such an air line, not on an ex- perimental basis, but geared to mov- ing huge quantities of freight and passengers on a split-second sched- ule of global proportions.
 It has made the dream of tomor- row commonplace today. The North African Division alone - stretch ing 25,000 miles from Natal, Brazil, to Karachi, India - now operates more planes than all United States

NEW LAW ADOPTED ON LOST ARTICLES

Any lost article worth $1 or more must be turned over to the police, by the finder, within 4o hours, and the department must then ad- vertise a description of the article once a week for two weeks, accord ing to bill passed by the Legisla- ture.
 The Waterbury Board of Alder men will be asked soon to act on the bill. It is designated to encour- age persons who find lost articles to turn them in to the police sta ton by allowing them to keep the articles if unclaimed within six months. The bill also provides that if the owner puts in claim with in six months, the property will be returned to him after he pays pro- per charges. Perishable or obnox- ious property are excluded.

BOARD CHECKING
 PRICE OF ORANGES
Local Ration Official Urge Instances of Over=Charg=
 ing Be Reported

Waterbury consumers were urged today by Lawrence L. Lewis, chair man of the local ration board, to keep a lookout for violation of cell ing prices on oranges. Any over- charge noted should be reported to the local price panel, he stated.
 A list of ceiling prices on oranges was announced by the ration and price administrator as follows:
 California or Arizona oranges weighing not less than six pounds per dozen, 90 cents; not less than 5 lbs. 4 ozs, 76 cents; not less than 4 lbs, 6 ozs, 65 cents; not less than 3 lbs, IA ozs, 57 cents; not less than 3 lbs,, 10 ozs, 5 cents; not less than 3 lbs, 4 ozs, 45 cents.
 Florida oranges should sell about five or six cents less per dozen than California or Arizona oranges, it was pointed out. Very few Florida oranges can be found on the Water bury market at the present time, however.

There are two good reasons for this-speed and the need else where for shipping. The return of COG. 1000 veterans by air in year will save more than 600 crossings of the Atlantic by Liberty ships. The Army Air Forces have the planes and might just as well use them. The air-borne redeployment movement is geared to increase &C., celeration until 10000 troops month ly will be shuttled through Casa blanca. The overall operation will move 50,0O0 troops by air monthly, remainder leaving direct from Paris and Prestwick, Scotland.
 The first group of war-weary ground force veterans quickly tagged the operation "The Sky rocket Home" and are they tickled. The "Skyrocket Fleet" is being in- creased unti. 100 of the 40-passenger C-54s will be carrying troops in August.
 ONE RUNWAY
 There is only one runway at CdDSS rlelu d1lu lI WdSu pdVeu until four months ago. One is suf- ficient, however, for the wind all most constantly blows in the same direction. Winds from various di- rections call for additional runways, as in the Azores.
 At peak operation, Cages Field, which now sees a plane of some sort or other taking off or land ing every five minutes, will have a C-54 arriving or departing every 15 minutes. More than 1900 passengers are to pass through every "A hours.
