OPAWorker: Are Seeking New Jobs
 Agency tO Help
 Employes Find
 Work ln State

Connecticut industry and business are "showlnR e very considerable interest in obtaining the services Of OPA employees when they are rec leased from the agency as a result ot curtailment of It's programs" Stanley Crute, State OPA Director said today. Crute announced a placement program now being put into operation by agency ofilcials and Connecticut business leaders
 Crute said that he had Invited a group of well known Connecticut business men to join with the agency to make the experience and abilities of our present employees available to Connecticut business and industry" The group will meet with Crute and other OpA officials on Thursday, November ., to form ulate procedures which will provide immediate information and con- tacts between business and our em. ployes,"
 According to Crute, oPA will need the services of its present employees flor varying lengths of time, de- pending on the life of the programs on which these people are work ing" Rent employees, Crute feels, will continue to be needed for a long time to come. Others will be avail- able beginning in month or so, as the agency continues its policy of decontrolling commodities as rapid ly as possible
 "Connecticut business men have worked with our people here for nearly i've years have talked with several of our industry leaders in the past few days, and there is no doubt about their high regard for the men and women who have had the difficult job of carrying ou. OPA's various programs, Many O. the decisions which our people have had to make were not exactly what business and industry would have liked. But the decisions were made and carried out because they were a necessary part of the job which Congress assigned to this agency, and know that our business men have respected the integrity with which they were made. The qual- ities that have made our people good public servants are also quail ities that are valuable to private 1 business, and our business men have been among the first to recognize this"
 Crute said that the executive committee administering this place. ment program will establish imme. diate contact with Connecticut bus- mess and industry on a statewide scale When various employees are about to be released, their qualifi- cations and experience will be brought to the attention of large group of firms, and interviews ar- ranged for upon request by those firms. The placement committee will invite businesses to contact it, listing employment requirements, and in this way experienced aNd able employees can be brought im- mediately to the attention of or- ganiZations which are looking for that experience.
 Among the types of personnel that will be available as the agency continues to retire its programs are attorneys, accountants, administra- tive executives, business and man. agement specialists in all commod- ity and retail fields, Statisticians, pricing analysts, investigators and | others

More spectacular. per-
haps, than the surprising
capture of Japanese held
islands, was the steady at
triton that cut down the
Japanese merchant fleet
Our submarines. in partl-
eular. were deadly in their
execution and surface ships

Japanese vessels. The air
force was not without ac-
tivity in this respect. but
the major destruction was
inflicted upon the enemy
shipping by our submarines
The positions seized by
the fleet. coupled with the
sinking OF japanese ships,
eventually isolated the home
islands of Japan from the
area she conquered in the
early days of the war. The
arrogant empire OF the MI
kado could not reinforce or
supply advanced positions
and neither could the Jap
anese fleet bring about a
successful withdrawal. The
blockade eventually reached
into the Sea of Japan and
actually ieopardized I n e
line of communications from
Japan TO the China main
land.
Even before the first
atomic bomb fell on the citl-
zens of Hiroshima. the Jap
anese leaders had lost hope
OF winning the war. In fact.

II is necessary for US. as a
Deople. TO understand the
functions of d modern Navy
and the manner In which it
exertS inexorable pressure
against an enemy in time of
war. Never again must the
United States allow itself to
be caught without adequate
fleets TO protect its inter-
ests and to safeguard It's Sc
curity, whether the attack
comes from both oceans at
the same time.
In connection with the
above sentiment. 1t is neces-
sary TO take cognizanee of

too early TO conclude that
the day of the warship has

sign and development of
