New York, May 1S-(UP)-Pri. vate enterprise in the western hemisphere over the next 25 years will face keen competition from the system of state control of industry. but private enterprise will win out if 1t performs "a better job than it has ever done before," Jesse w.

 Randall, in a talk before the hemispheric insurance conference. expressed hope that competition between private initiative and state- controlled economy will be peaceful and that adherentS of both beliefs Twill each try to prove by the re- suits we produce which of the two systems is best for the public at large"
 The system of private enterprise. he asserted, can create more prog ress and generate prosperity than can any state controlled economy, but not If we try to live on past glory"
 We must keep on our toes, ever eager to learn what the public wants and needs and we must be constantly alert to improve our contracts and our services" the ex- ecutive said.

 Inquiry 10 Ds mads
 To AeoIof veioRans

In an endeavor to clarify the eligibility status of Waterbury vet erans as to apprenticeship and On- the-job training Mayor John c. Monagan yesterday appointed a five-man committee of the Water bury Veterans Advisory Center to make . study and survey of the local situation.
 At a meeting of the Advisory Committee held yesterday the mat ter of such CT benefits training was discussed Many veterans have re- ported to the Center that they have not been able to obtain. such bene- fits because of age or because ap- premiership openings are filled.
 According to standards of many unions only so many apprentices are permitted to be employed in ratio to the number of journeymen also employed in the particular dee partment or establishment. Age limits have been set in some in- stances.
 The committee appointed by the Mayor consists of Mel J. Bulger; Charles Melville, J. Milton Burrall, Alexander Mole and Harold Slat- tery. The group will meet with employees and representatives of the A.F1L. and C1.O. on Thursday, May g at the Veterans Center.
 Many veterans report that their age has interfered with their get ting the benefits provided under the CT benefits. It has been their claim that some unions and employers have refused to permit them to undertake a three-year training course at the age of 5 because they will find the journeyman's field difficult to break into at the end of the training period.
 A government lease permitting the Waterbury unit of Veterans Administration to continue opera tion at the Center was signed by the mayor at yesterdays meeting.
 The Veterans Administration has been housed at 196 Grove Street, snice April, 1946, and at present the staff of 14, headed by Edward w. Kelley of Naugatuck, chief con- tact officer. is using four rooms.
 Prior to moving to the Grove Street building, the organization occupied offices at the City Hall for 8 year.

Power Company
Builds New Lines

New rural electric lines of Carolina
Power & Light Company are going
up in the Company's South Carolina
territory at the rate of Is to 20 miles
per month, according to T. D. Ector,
South Carolina Division manager.
Since the end of the war, when
c P & L launched its postwar rural
construction program, 119 miles Of
rural lines have been constructed in
the South Carolina territory alone.
The addition of the new rural
lines and the extension Of existing
lines have brought electric service
for the first time to 922 rural Gus
toners of all types in South Carolina,
bringing to 1900 the total number
Of rural customers served by the
Company in this area.
Although construction crews have
been delayed so far by bad weather in
the winter and spring and also be-
cause of the difficulties in obtaining
necessary materials, the Company
hopes to complete most Of the 24O
miles of rural lines approved for
South Carolina in the postwar con-
struction program by the end of
this year.
The overall rural construction pro-
gram of c P & L involves the build
ing of $500 miles of new rural lines
throughout its North and South
Carolina territory at a cost of about
100000. The addition Of these

@. May turkeys be raised to ma
turity on wire or slat-foored porches!
A. Yes. Porches constructed of both
Stats and wire are very serviceable.
About six square feet of floor space
should be provided per bird.
@. Is domestic rabbit meat increas-
ing in favor with the American public?
A. Yes. During the war, production
of domestic rabbits increased from 400
to $40 percent. The demand for rabbit
meat continues to be 80 great that
many butchers now sell it dressed, cut
up and ready for cooking. Numerous
farmers have found domestic rabbit
production a profitable side-line.
@. Why should dairy calves be kept
off pasture until they are four to six
months of age?
A. This practice is recommended for
the prevention of parasite infection,
and to keep young calves from eating
so much soft, watery grass that they
can not eat the proper amount of grow
Ing ration for satisfactory growth.
@. Is self-feeding of bred sows and
gifts advised?
A No. Self-feeding results in excess
sive consumption of feed, even when
bulky rations are used. Long-term ex-
periments at the Research Farm of the
Ralston Purina Company indicate that
hand-feeding makes it possible to con-
troll both condition and feed consump-
ton of sows and gifts, resulting in
stronger, healthier filters, and lower
feed costs.
@. What feeding and management
methods for lambs have aided in the
control of death losses caused by
"over-eating" disease?
A. In Colorado experiments, the adj
dition of sulphur to the grain mixture
for fattening lambs has greatly reduced
death losses from over-eating. The
sulphur was added to the grain mixture
at the rate of two pounds for each 100
pounds of grain for lambs on both
self-feeding and hand-feeding. Under
each system, the rate of death losses
was greatly reduced, and the profit per
head was increased by as much as SIC
per head because Of the lowered death
loss.
