ing to each other, so the situati 1n has not reached a complete stalc- mate.
 The union agreed today (Sun- dayl to carry out it's agreement to furnish the operators with a list of eligible engineers from which tre operators had agreed to select the engineers if such list contained sufficient men from which a choice could be made. The operator has indicated that if the union does hot carry out this agreement in good faith the vessel will never sail as far as they are concerned. The union claims that they are having difficulty in finding sufei- cient men who want the engineer ing jobs but stiu maintain tn P are doing everything possible to get a list for the operator by Mon day noon.
 Issue Clouded
 The issue has been elouded over ly the unions contention that tne reported alterations required for housing crews is another method being used by the operator to oe- lay sailing this vessel. The opera tors assured me that any altera- lions would in no way delay the sailing of this vessel and that the selection of engineers is the only real issue If the above method Of selecting engineers fails. the mari time commission will probably de- mand that the engineers be select ed in accordance with the condi- tions which existed on September

GOVERNOR GIVES
 REVIEW OF SHIP SITUATION

(Continued from Page Two)
 appears to me Alaska is being used as a hostage between two ccntending groups over a series of !ong-standing differences and dis agreements in which Alaskans have no voice or no authority.
 Alaskans As Leverage
 Without wishing to enter into the merits or demerits of these controversies, the utilization of AL aska as a hostage is an outrage. Neither side in the conflict as any right to use the actual and poten- tial suffering of Alaska and its people as a leverage to compel the other side to yield and I doubt whether and red-blooded Alaska ls ould be willing to be so used. F)l the moment we are relatively help less although I believe our ingen- uity will in the long run enable us 1 to overcome this situation which 1 threatens to be ever recurring ' l. | less we find alternative solutions, 1 the future of Alaska will be dim since transportation is our life line.
 I expect to go to Washington in few days to see whether I can not prevail upon those in author ity to find more effective methods of solving the present controversy than have hitherto been employed or, failing that, to help us in de- velopment of alternative methods and routes of transportation.
 Other Routes Needed
 Meanwhile. we should renew our own efforts to develop other routes of communication betw cen tie United States and Alaska which, while costly and perhaps not too effective for a time, w'1l. once established. help free us from the tyranny and maltreatment which we are continuing to receive from those who dominate what vas once considered the historic trade r ute from the states to Alaska.
 Commander Chester's message , to me this morning (Tuesday) fc' lows:
 Relief vessel to westward si - atioh: Grommet Reefer, with AL aska Steamship Company as gener- al agent, has been designated as relief vessel by the maritime com mission. The only thing holding up placing this vessel on berth for loading is the selection of ap- gineeing officers. The operators demand the right to select thair own engineers and engineers un- ion demands the right to place on board engineers of their choice who most need the work.
 Strike Within A Strike
 Thus little strike within a strike has developed. In our fri day meeting, a method of selecting engineers was agreed upon by bo n sides but the engineers union has not fully complied with this agree ment. Saturday, each side started blaming the other for delaying the relief vessel but they are still talk

 The Fall session has just begun at Crosby and Thomas Nolan, as- Sistant Superintendent of schools, has announced that it is not too late for veterans who are interested in equivalency preparation to begin the course of study.
 The question of whether or not a veteran can split his eligibility arose recently at the Veterans Gen. ter. It seems that some veterans are seeking to use just the subsistence allowance to cover one college course, while saving the tuition al- lowance to cover another course at a later date. After considerable re- search and checking the Center finds that under Veteran Adminis- tration regulations, this is not pos sible
 The Secretary of State announces that special oral examinations will be given from time to time begin ming about Nov. 1946, to candidates for appointment to the middle and upper grades for foreign service. Candidates must be at least 31 years of age and must have had either 90 days service in the armed forces since September 1940 or 32 months service in the Merchant Marine since May, 1940 or 2 years service in the Federal Government since December 1941. Candidates must also demonstrate ability in executive, administrative, conner cial, analytical, scholarly or repor- torial fields. A college degree and some facility in foreign language is also required.
 | Applications may be obtained from the Board of Examiners for Foreign Service, Department of State, Wash ington 25, D. c. Those qualifying on the basis of their experience will be designated to take oral ex- animation within six months from the date of application.

 Couple Dated Steady
 Hogan was shot in the heart, the girl through the forehead. Miss Eldridge, an attractive brunei, came here about six months ago from South Chatham, Mass, to work as waitress. She was barefoot and evidently had been wading in the surf.
 Friends said the young couple had been going together steady for about four months Hogan, operator of a Fort Lauderdale plumbing shop, had been discharged from the Merchant Marine last December
 His wallet, it's contents intact was near his body, leading police to discount robbery motive. They said the girl apparently had not been attacked.

ADVICE for VETERANS
 By K. F. SMITH
 Public Relations Director Waterbury Veterans' Advisory Center
 1OS Grove Street

N Veterans interested in attending Trade Schools should contact the Veterans Advisory Center imme- diately. The Center located at 195 Grove Street, is conducting 8 sur vey, the purpose of which is to de- termine whether or not there is a need, on the part of veterans, for such facility in Waterbury.
 when and if the local trade school gets under way, instruction will be given in such fields as carpentry electrical work, plumbing, tool mak- ing, automobile mechanics, blue print reading, etc. Other subjects such as instrument repair and en- graving may be added if there seems to be sufficient interest to warrant 1t.
 < It will not be necessary to call In person at the Center. A telephone aeall or not will suffice, however; any communication should disclose the name and address of the party interested, together with the trade in which training is desired.
 
 q, Of definite advantage to the veteran is the non-taxable subsist- ence allowance. Veterans taking on the job training or contemplating such training should note this. Sub- sistence allowances are non-taxable ee The training Officers of the Veter- ans Administration repeat the re- quest that any employer having possible training jobs for veterans contact the Center as soon as pos sible.
 The Training Officers point out that it is to the advantage of both
The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-10-10

the employer and employees when @ training program is set up.
 The number of occupations in which veterans ,may train is almost unlimited and employers having anything that looks like 8 training program should contact the local Veterans Administration. The ad- ministration will be glad to inveSti- gate any and all job training possi- bilities.
 The Veterans Center has received many calls regarding veterans prior ity in purchasing new automobiles The Center regrets that there is nc system of priority except in the case of leg amputees, for whom automo- piles may be purchased through the Veterans Administration.
 Many veterans seeking entrance to college are finding that the State High School Diploma in itself is not sufficient. Colleges are requir- ing that the applicant present ac- tual high school credits and di- ploma from recognized high school
 To meet this need, the Waterbury School department is now formulat- ing a program of evening study whereby it will be possible for men who have completed two or more years of high school to obtain actual academic credit. The credits &C., quired in this manner may be ap- piled at the high school which the veteran previously attended and il is intended that, in this way, those completing the required courses ot study will be able to obtain local high school diplomas. AS second ary purposes, it will be possible un-
