Your Problem

The Presidents last budget message to Congress forecasts public debt of $292,- 000,000,000 by June 30, l946, and an 100000. That breaks all records for public debt, and is far beyond that of any other nation in the world. One would natur- ally take it for granted that facing such a terrific financial burden, our country would adopt policy of economy in peace time government expenditures.
 But what are we planning? For one thing, an announced Federal program for seven TWAS to blanket the nation at cost that will run into billions of dollars. Up to June 30, 1943, the original IVA had received $667, ,969 ,270 in appropria- tions from Congress. No one knows what the seven TWAS will cost, but they will take billions.
 The desire in Washington for nation wide government ownership of electric power is not motivated by an urge to render an otherwise unobtainable service, but rather to extend the field of tax exempt government-OWned business to the ultimate destruction of one branch of private taxpaying enterprise and the expansion of state socialism.
 The United States had the most pro- greSSive electric industry in the world before IVA was ever heard of, and 1t still has, as is evidenced by the fact that no section of the country which depends on private electric service has been ra- toned on electricity.
 After seeing hundreds of thousands of our boys killed and maimed, and vlrt- ually bankrupting ourselves fighting the evils of state socialism abroad, it is diff ficult to understand why we at home allow it's clutches to be fastened on us in any way, shape, manner or form. This is not primarily problem of the private electric industry; it is a political problem that affects the very foundation of our whole philosophy of government.

Views Of The Press

or China of Korea or the Balkans or Poland eventually may be of as much concern to us as thought it were taking place in Pennsylvania or South Carolina or Kansas. The men who helped hold the American Zone around Coblenz from Decem- Der, l9l8 to January, 1923, and whose sons are now dying on the same roads over which they march ed as victorious army only a few short years ago, will realize the truth that this is a small world and that the United States is part of hat world, no world of itself.

Local residents were pleased to hear of the appointment of the Most Rev. John F. O'Hara, CSC, as Bishop of the Dio- cese of Buffalo, N. Y. Bishop O'Hara visited in Waterbury number of years ego when he was president of Notre Dame University, being the guest speaker at Knights of Columbus gathering. He was brilliant speaker just as he proved to be a brilliant administrator of the great micl-Western Catholic institution. He has more recently been auxiliary to Archbishop Spellman in charge of all Army and Navy chaplains.

Bridgeport has more or less made his tory during this past week by placing two women at the head of it's school sys- tenn. Miss Mary A.

ing back to this country for dis charge. Patterson and General Handy revealed that the method of discharging these troops is now being worked out, and that will definitely be an individual matter rather than decision to disband divisions in toto or even smaller units. Length of service, length of service overseas, wounds and family status will be the im- portat determining factors.
 Present plans call for the ship ment of the major part of those troops destined to the Pacific via this country, where they will be given 3O-day furlough before going on to tangle with the Nips. Chandler, Senator Styles Bridges of New Hampshire and several other members of the Committee were not at all certain of the wisdom of this plan.
 Thirty days is just long enough to make a man want to stay a civilian" Chandler said.
 'If he were shipped on direct
 from Europe without coming into this country he wouldn't have chance to forget being a soldier. In addition, many soldiers and their families know that delay Is being reunited
 is much less wearing emOtoin- ally than being together for month anG then having to break up again."
 Other members of the Military Affairs Committee agreed with Chandler that even though get ting home for short time might seem highly desirable to the GI and his family, it would be bet ter all around for him not to come home only to leave once again to go into battle against new foe.

Selected Poem
MISSING IN ACTION

(Neva McMillan Upton in the New York Times) Missing in action" the casual notice said Prosaic words, when on waste of sand Ten thousand miles from home, boy lies dead. So short a time ago his was the hand That winged silver plane across the high Blue pathways of the sky; his was the dream That spanned both time and space to glorify The things that men make sacred with esteem. To those who live he leaves the task, that they May carry on this dream and thus atone For him who whiles eternity away Last night he died out there. but not alone; From out the caldron of the pain and blood He sought, and found, the fingertips of God.

"AlADY TAkE5A CHANCE" lS BIG
 BILL AT CAPITOL

Packed with hilarious and unex- pected comedy from start to finish and with ght-hearted, tender TO- nance of a novel kind, "A Lady Takes a Chance" co-stars Jean Ar thur and John Wayne in what is said to be one of the years most entertaining pictures This is the feature starting at the Capitol on Sunday.
 A transcontinental bus trip from New York City to the Pacific Coast and back is the idea of the story but nearly all the action takes place in eastern Oregon. There Mollie, a Manhattan bank clerk on her first vacation in years, meets Duke, a rodeo rider who is tossed right into her lap by a bucking broncho. e Mollic has never met anyone like Duke before, and vice versa. Their stormy and picturesque romance sweeps headlong, punctuated by hil- arious situations in frontier gamb- ling room, a rickety hotel, on the desert and at an auto camp, as Mol lie, who has missed her bus in all the excitement, hitch-hikes across the state to catch the vehicle on it's return trip.
 Nellie decides she wants to marry the tall capable Westerner, but Duke has no inteption of letting any lilly drcp a matrimonial loop over his neck. Waco, Dukes round elderly pal, Loyalty tries to dissuade the de- termined girl from her wedding plans, and apparently succeeds. But when the travel-weary party gets back to New York City, unexpected things begin happening around the bus terminal where the trip began.
