GET Legion Of Merit

Mai. Gen. Alexander D. Surles,
who lives at Fort Myer, Va, received
the Distinguished Service Medal
from Secretary Stimson yesterday
for outstanding services as director
of the War Departments public re-
Ilations bureau since August, 1941.
Gen. SurleS, during the war years,
had the responsibility for keeping
the Nation informed of the progress
of Army operations ald of changes
in plans and policies affecting in
dividual citizens.
A former Tank Corps officer in the
World War, Gen. Surles succeeded
Maj. Gen. Robert c.. Richardson
as director of the public relations
bureau. He previously was in charge
of Army public relations.
One of his hardest jobs during
the war, according to the citation,
was weighing the value of releas-
ing information against the posi-
bility of its affording valuable in
telligence to our enemies"
Col. William III. Kyle, aide-de-
camp to the Secretary of War since
June, 1914, was awarded the Legion
OF Merit by Mr.. Stimson at the same
ceremony, at the Pentagon. In addi-
ton to his normal duties, Col. Kyle
carried heavy responsibilities in con-
nection with processing important
general staff papers under con-
sideration by the Secretary of War
and was of material assistance to
the Secretary in formulating de-
cisions of basic policy" the citation
read.
Col. Kenneth r. Kreps, pilot and
special air travel consultant to the
Secretary of War, also received the
Legion of Merit at the exercises in
recognition of services since Decem-
ber, 1912.
Mr.. Stimson had Travelled many
thousands of miles in the United
States by air on visits to Army
installations and also attended con-
ferenceS of the United Nations, as
well as inspecting overseas theaters.
Col. Kreps piloted his plane on many
OF these trips and was consulted on
all matters pertaining to safety and
comfort of many distinguished per-
sonageS he piloted.
The wives of the three officers
were present at the ceremony which
was attended also by high ranking
War Department officials and
officers.

Child Core Centers May Discontinue
 Kinssbury, Long
 Hill Projects
 Face Closinqs

Cessation ofikWar hostilities may affect operation of Waterbury's two Child Care Centers, The Democrat learned today. While no definite plans have been announced at Washington for the discontinuance of Lanham Act funds for such fa- cilities throughout the nation, it is more or less taken for granted that with reconversion will come lay-offs of many women war workers, which in turn will mean less need for cen- ters where children of school and pre-school age may be taken care of.
 At the present time the City of Waterbury is operating two such centers-one at the Kingsbury house, corner of Prospect and LiI1- den street, and the other at the federal housing project on Long Hill. The latter center was built just for such purposes and is fully equipped with modern types of ed- cational and recreational facilities. However. it is understood that local Child Care authorities were serious 1y considering closing this center in September due to the falling-off in attendance there of recent months.
 At one time, too, plans had been advanced for operation of center at the old St. Johns parish-house. It would have been used solely for school-age children, in order to re-

Sharp Rise In Benefit Claims Seen
 4,Sz2 Filed
 Here Reports
 John J. Ecun

For the first month during which the employment security division compiled data on claims filed, by six, 1t was revealed that women comprised a large proportion of the claimants for unemployment com pensation benefits. This was an- nounced today by John ]. Egan, commissioned of labor, through the cface of James J. Graham, acting executive director, employment se- curity division.
 During July, there was weekly average of 8,625 persons applying for unemployment compensation bene- fits. 5,lO6 Cor 59 per cent of whom were women. The number of claims by ex-servicewomen under the G.I. Bill of Rights was very small.
 The sharp rise in claims filed, which started shortly after VE-Day due to war contract cutbacks and cancellations, continued during July, when a total of 44,862 claims Gan increase of 39.9 per cent over June) were filed under the pro- visions of the state law and federal law for veterans. Of this total 42.- 914 were filed in Connecticut, while the remainder were filed in other states against Connecticut.
 The war production centers of the state continued to have the largest numbers of claims filed. The New Haven district led the state with the filing of 9,409 claims of all types, followed by Hartford with 8,538, Waterbury with 4,822, and Bridgeport with 3,022. Ansonia had the largest percentage increase, of 86 per cent. The only district in the state showing decrease in claims filed from June was Danbury, which dropped 13.6 per cent as a result of the seasonal increase in hat produc- tiorl.
 While women comprised 59 per cent of the claimants for the state as whole, the proportion ran much higher in certain districts. In Bristol, 85 per cent of, all claims were filed by women, while 79 per cent of the claims filed in Water bury and Torrington represented females. In Stamford, 78 per cent of the claims were filed by women. Women comprised only 36 per cent of the claimants in Danielson, fl per cent in Norwich, 50 per cent in New Haven, and 52 per cent in Hartford.
 The fund available for unemploy- ment compensation benefits now totals SIT, ,651 ,030, an increase of 214 per cent over July, 1914. Net benefits paid during July totaled $362, 2,602, bringing the amount paid out during the last seven and one half years to $31 ,512. .068.

lieve the congestion at Kingsbury Center, where both pre-school and age children have been cared for since its opening in August of l943. Kingsbury Center has run at ca- pacity since late in 1943 and boasts of a full complement of teachers and other staff employees.
 The building. formerly the Kings bury homestead, of latter years has been owned by the Mattatuck His torical Society and at times 1t was rumored that the Society nigh make some use of it for museum purposes. It was leased in part to the city for child care purposes in 1943, but was sold earlier this year to the newly-organized Y. W. 0. A. The organization has permitted the city of continue to maintain it's child care center there. however, but the end of the war may mean a dissolution of such services with in the immediate future. Much will depend on advices from Washing ton on use of Lanham Act funds for these purposes.

 The entire chancellerie was
 honeycombed with underground tunnels and shelters, and after getting a fiashlight and climbing over piles of plaster and broken furniture, we ended up several levels below the basement and for a minute I thought we'd found Hitler.
