Department of Labor anonunced to- day that employees engaged in war work on the 4th of July must be paid time and one-half, but not more, under Executive Order 9240 which governs the overtime and premium pay practices for "all work relating to the prosecution of the war"
 Executive Order 9240 limits 4th of July pay to time and one-half and it is violation of the Order to pay double time for work performed on that day. The other holidays desig- mated in the Executive Order for which time and one-half and no more must be paid are Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas, New Years Day, and Memorial Day or an undesignated holiday of greater local importance than Memorial DaV

where the great block busters struck Those 12,000 pound explosives dis integrate adjacent buildings anc send them flying in little bits; theil occupants also, in little bits.
 When all of this began, Ham, burg was a city of 100000 persons There are about 100000 persons living here now, mostly in the sub urbs and in the ring of unchanged or slightly damaged buildings on the outskirts Such a ring of in- habitable buildings lies around most of Germany's blasted towns.
 And Hamburg-like all other Ger man cities-has its quota of cellar dwellers. Cellars a little way from a bomb strike sometimes survived destruction when upper stories came down. So the Germans have gone into the available holes in the ground. Three thousands of them are living, crowded sometimes four or five to room.
 German doctors have made a careful inspection of their bombed cities. They are confident that the thousands of bodies buried in the rubble do not menace the public health. The harvest of the July, l943, attacks long since has decom- posed and gone to dust. Some of the most recent corpses soon will be gone. too.

 them of being burglars in the Mill ton house. Albert was shot in the ensuing argument.
 David Goldstein, Mrs. Stevens counsel, said they would waive a hearing in the arraignment before Judge Arba Marvin. Prosecutor Edmond Morrison said the beautiful Texan would probably spend the summer in jail, awaiting trial in October.
 The elder Stevens said his son would stick by his wife-"at least through this" But there was no indication whether Maj. Stevens was on his way home from Europe in an swer to a cabled plea from his wife that she was "in trouble.
 George will stick with her" Ste vens said. He's not the kind to go horsing out of anything. When a mans stuck, he's stuck"

came. These girls readily agreed to
 demonstrate.
 The plotting room was divided by
 a screen. The girls worked on one
 side flashing lights on the screen to
 indicate the presence and move
 ments of attacking Allied planes
 and German fighters. German of-
 ficers used to sit on the other side
 with radio and telephone equip
 ment through which they could ma-
 neuver their defense.
 As the young women began to
 play their lights on the screen one
 began to laugh and then another.
 In half a minute all the girls were whooping their amusement. A Ger man speaking American roughly demanded to know what was so damned funny.
 One girl explained that the make believe air battle they were showing on the radar screen was one of the great German victories of all time. Two or three German fighters were chasing several thousand American and Allied planes back across the North Sea.
 Hamburg was tough, all right, but the planes came over by night and by day and they were not chased home. This was Germany'S second city until July, 1943. In that month, for Germanys sins against London. American and British air. men gave Hamburg a terrible past ing Berlin would have been a more appropriate target but in 1943 Berlin was too hazardous target to be hit merely for revenge
 Now this great city is still and quiet. The shipping moving in Hamburg's harbor during my two tours of Fit could be comfortably accommodated on the Kaw River at Topeka, Kan.
 Most of the big ships rest on the harbor bottoms, their keels broken or their sides stove in. Scores of fishing boats lie idle waiting for the harbor entrance to be cleared of mines. Hamburg desperately needs the fish they might be catch ing
 The harbor is lined with wreck age. The great Blohm & Voss ship yard has upward of 30 submarines on the ways in various stages of completion. The big cranes are broken and the yard is mess. The industrial installations, refineries and such were bombed repeatedly right up to the end of the war as hard working Germans repeatedly .epaired the damage and attempted 70 continue in business.
 But the city itself has not chang ed much since July, 1943. when 200, GOO or SO of its citizens were killed or injured in five air as- saults during a period of 48 hours. The Royal Air Force came over three times a night. The Ameri- can 9th Air Force struck twice oy day. There were attacks later.
 Altogether Hamburg suffered 300.- 100 to 100000 casualties. Thousands and thousands were killed outright pr trapped in the ruins of build ngs where their bodies still lie. Some thousands of Hamburg houses have fallen fiat. Those areas were hit by high explosive bombs. Other of buildings are shells, .he insides burned away so that 1t is not possible ever to see where the floor or ceiling lines had been

Politics
 -M- Passing

Ehis would seem to be "der Tag" tor waterbury's city court. If Dem- ocratic and Republican party lead CTS haven't come to some sort of an agreement by nightfall it looks as If the court would be manned by its current COP appointees when called to order Monday morning. And at this writing 1t didn't appear as if there would be an agreement be- pause Democrats maintain that any agreements they entered into with respect to the court makeup were made some weeks ago and should be as binding today as they were then. All of which makes good sense. After all there has been no change in the political complexion of either the state or the city since leaders decided that the jobs would be apportioned out in a definite manner. If Republicans fail to live up to this agreement now it would appear to be a breach of good faith on their part.

Appointment of Rep. Daniel J. Mahaney of Waterbury as New Haven County Commissioner was probably the crowning political achievement of "Dan's" long po- litical career. Ever since he en- tered the Assembly back in the 30s he has wanted to be a Coun- ty Commissioner. He thought that he was due to be named on more than one occasion. In fact his chances of being named were cer- tainly better in the years of Dem- ocratic governors than during the regime of Republican chief ex- ecutive Raymond E. Baldwin. Gov. Baldwin, however, seems to be fol- lowing a pattern in his appoint ments that is not legislative tail 0red, but bears marks of his own cutting.

Again Mayor Mortensen of Hart ford has publicly announced that he H not desirous of succeeding himself-sn office Last winter he con- founded COP leaders in Hartford by stating he wouldn't run for a second term. Now he has reaffirmed this decision and forestalled any at- tempts to draft him for the fall campaign. It thus looks as if Hart ford would have new mayor and may revert to the Democratic col umn again. In the other big cities of the state incumbentS look like sure-fire winners, such as Mayor John W. Murphy of New Haven and Mayor John S. Monagan of Water bury, both Democrats, and Mayor Jasper McLevy of Bridgeport, So- cialbt.

Waterbury officials are conjec- turing on the fate of several lo- eal bills that still require the governors signature before their terms become effective. Up until this week these bills hadn't ar- rived at the governors desk for his signature. He has fifteen days in which to sign them after their arrival. Among them is the assessors bill which will rev0lu- tionize local assessment practices. It will also replace the present five-man board with single as- sessor, presumably Prof. Aldro Jenks ef the State Tax Depart ment. The question is how long will Prof. Jenks keep himself Available for the local job. He apparently has completed arrange ments to leave the State Tax De- partment. which might be a sure Indication the governor will sign this bill.

| Some of Gov. Baldwin's recent
 appointments have come in for hard knocks at the hands of the c,irhstone critics. Take for exam ple that of the Commissioner of .Aeronautics, Kenneth H. Ringrose, who has been acting commissioner since Thomas H. Lockhart went of to the wars. Ringrose is Re- publican, while L.ockhart is Demo- 9crat. Not only did Democratic State Chairman Adrian F. Maher object strenuously to the replace .ment of the Democratic incumbent, but he threatened to take the mat ter into court, where now is pend
 Ing the custer of Motor Vehicles Commissioner John T. Mccarthy by Lieut.. Col. Elmer Watson of .Wethersfield. To be exact the court action is the opposite of this as its Com. Mccarthy who instituted

| And speaking of Bridgeport's Socialist mayor it's obvious that
 his campaign is off to a good
 start. He has been belaying both Democratic and Republican poli-
 tac3ans for some weeks past. He
 started it with a broadside up at
 legislative sessions on purely local ! measures. He followed this up with . radio talk in which he stressed home rule and state inter vention. So there's little doubt
