TOO EARLY TO DECIDE
(New Britain Herald


 The question of what kind of permanent memorials to put up for the veterans of the second World War is too early to decide. Thus most towns, like New Britain, are acting wisely by putting up tenn porary memorials.
 The living memorial idea is Widespread-th creation of some thing that can be used in the con- munities; and these encompass many types, such as hospitals, civic auditoriums, community centers, swimming pools, stadia, pools, for ests, waterways, dams, camps, pie nic shelters, playgrounds, libraries and parks.
 But many of these run into large sums, and there are some folks who seek to take advantage of a cond-- ton to put through pet ideas con- corning how to spend money and what for.
 Wise communities will let the matter rest until all their sons are back from the widespread postwar fronts. There need be no hurry The boys who contributed directly to the victories should have the final say as to the kind of memorials to honor their deeds.

LESS NEED THAN EVER
(Hartford Times)

The CIO is renewing it's request to Coy. Baldwin that he call a special session of the Legislature. Stress is laid upon the housing situation.
 Admittedly, housing is still tight. It is extremely difficult for family seeking a place to live to find it. However, the demand is leSsening with the removal of war workers from the territory. Moreover, home construction has been resumed and i it will increase in volume as ma terials become more plentiful, as they will steadily. The situation will constantly grow better. By the time any legislative action could be effec- tive the need for the action very likely would have passed. There is even less need for a session than there was when once 1 it was refused some weeks ago.
 The Constitution permits a SeS- sion to be called only in the event of an emergency. It would require great Straining indeed to show that an emergency exists.
 There is ground for regret that Gov. Baldwin has put the matter up to the Legislative Council. That looks like a Sidestep taken to share the onus of a decision that may be unpopular in some quarters. The l Constitution places the responSibil- i ity for determining if there is an emergency squarely and solely on the governor. It doesn't recognize the Legislative Council. That body has no authority whatsoever in the matter. It's members know no more about conditions that would add up to an emergency than many other groups of citizens whose ad- vice upon the question might be sought, perhaps less.
 We should prefer to see the gov- ernor decide the matter squarely and forthrightly. No case what ever can be made for a special ses- sion. That might well be said promptly.

in the ways of war plants then. I an idealist too I thought the proper way to run war was draft every able bodied male from l6 to 60 or maybe 65 send the physically fit forth to fight bracket at a time needed, put the rest in war plants or on such jobs they could do and pay them all the same wages. It was all our wasn't 1t?
 I'd heard too many seamen in off that bitter Murmansk run tell of the Russian people, mem and women, waiting to unload those ships with primitive gear and even their bare hands, and for no pay at all Her men at the front needed what those ships bringing
 was dumb enough to believe that If your nation was in danger, you ought to put aside whatever you were doing, and take hold where you could, with politics organizational conflicts and other civilian incidentas frozen where they'd been, and for the duration Having to set up affiliated country clubs as inducements to war workers, seemed sad com mentary upon patriotism
 The Andrew J. Higgins Industries offered the fuller life to all who answered the call and mustered in through his employment office. MT. Andrew J. Higgins had practically parayzed the ordered life Of New Orleans by the time got there The South was not ndustralized It was unionized only In spots The normal rate of pay in any field was not high.

COMBINED HOLIDAY
(BoSton Post)

It may be that in years to come, the ending of World War I and the ending of World War II will be cele- brated on the same holiday. That could mean that the holiday just passed will be dropped and the date of the ending of the war agalnst the Japs may be chosen for the combined celebration. Whatever date is decided on, the nation Will pray that the holiday will eventually come to mean not the ending oi this war or that war, but the end ing of all wars for all time through out the world.

BABY,
By Edna Mae Mcintosh

This column now IS being written BY

assistant professor Of foods and nutri-
zion at the Florida State College for
Women. She succeeds Dr.. uIlisa 3
Storms
The foods introduced into your
|baby's diet during the first year
are given for several reasons. Milk
is almost perfect as an infant food
but lacks several n~utritive factors
in sufficient amounts for rapidly
growing little bodies.
Vitamin d is one necessary fac
tor. II irradiated milk is used in the
formula, your physician may con-
slider enough vitamin D is supplied,
or he may prescribe additional
amounts in the form Of cod liver
oil.
Another substance needed is vi
tamin G, which is the reason orange
juice is started before the end of
the first month.
Milk has very little iron. Anemia
once was a common disease at five
or six months Of age. Modern
babies are given special baby GER
calls which have added iron to sup
plement the small amount in milk.
Present day babies seldom show
any signs Of anemia.
The baby cereals also have add
ed thaimine or vitamin B, because
milk has far less than needed. The
richest source of thiamine is dried
yeast which also has the other
members of the vitamin B complex
and some valuable protein. The
baby cereals have added dried yeast
to supply these factors. All Of
these are needed for growing heal
thy bodies.
The strained vegetables and
fruits furnish additional vitamins
and minerals.
Another important reason the
solid foods are given much earlier
than they were a few years ago,
is to teach babies to eat a variety
Of foods. If milk is the only food
for five or six months babies be-
come accustomed to a liquid diet
and are apt to resist solid foods.
