TaIbOtM0Ues to Make Army Life AttrdctiUe
 Demands War Department Keep
 Promise With American People
 On Demobilizing Overseas Troops

Congressman Joseph E. Talbot of the Connecticut Fifth District has called upon the War Department to keep its promise to the American people on It's announced plans of Rehabilitation, especially the promised return to the United States of unnecessary men now stranded" in the Pacific, China, India and other faraway places.
 Tn a statement made public today Congressman Talbot of Naugatuck announces his intentions of appeal ing to the House Military Affairs Committee today and urging the adoption of a program to make re- enlistments in the army attractive and army life more inducive to new men.
 The formal statement follows:
 Recent announcements from the War Department indicating that demobilization will be slowed up be- cause of the lack of replacements add just one more note of confusion to system which has been studded with examples of indecision and vagueness since its very inception.
 Just short time ago, we were told that the Army and Navy had far more men than were needed in the European and Pacific Theaters and that the only bottleneck to be overcome was the trerrific trans portation shortage. We were told at that time that the European bottle neck was expected to be relieved by February and the Pacific bottle- neck by Spring. Now, long before those dates, we are told that we should not be surprised if troop ships come to American from either of those theaters with plenty of room to spare because replacements are not available for the much needed" troops in those areas.
 Confidence Misplaced
 The tragedy of all of this indeci- sion and confusion by the War and Navy Departments is the fact that husbands and sons in the service have been counting on the success full execution of previously an- nounced plans, and wives and mothers back home have held firm ly to the hope that their service men would be returned on schedule. It is justifiable for these men in the service and their families back home

 Others giving brief addresses included: City Treasurer Serge Belanger, who represented the mayor, William J. Pape, Dr. Jos eph May, Dr. William Lenkowski, Miss Henrietta Mikoski, financial secretary of the drive; and Jos- eph Bisiewicz, treasurer.
 The corporal's parents, Mir. and Mrs. Bronislaus Levandoski, and his sister, Sophie, also spoke briefly.
 Musical selections were render ed by the parish senior choir under the direction of Edmund Skowronsli. Piano selections were rendered by five-year-old Joanne Symplinski. Tap dances and baton twirling exhibitions were given by Elizabeth and Barbara Malon.
 Mrs. John Sterling was in charge of the dinner. Assisting her were: Mrs. Stanley Hulk, Mrs. John Novakauskas, Mrs. An- thony Korbusieski, Mrs. Anthony Swirczenski, and Mrs. Frank Zdonczyk.

to expect Q reasonable knowledge of definite plans by the War and Navy Departments to demobllise these servicemen and 1t is justifiable for American citizens to expect the war and Navy Departments to live up to those plans. This the War Depart- ment has failed to do.
 If, truly, the return of our vet- erans is now being impeded by a lack of replacements, it is time for America, through the voice of Con- gress, to act quickly. If the War and Navy Departments can be author ized immediately to increase the pay, advantages, and opportunities of enlistment in the armed forces to a point sufficient to attract the voluntary enlistment of enough men to provide replacements in large numbers, knotty postwar problem will be solved. Under this plan 1t would be possible within a reason- ably short time to demobilize all members of the armed forces who desire to be discharged and to re- tain an Army and Navy of sufficient strength for all occupational and other current duties made up en- tirely of men to whom employment in the armed services is desirable.
 Proposes Action
 Membership in the armed forces of the United States should not be an undesirable occupation because of low pay, lack of opportunity for advancement, or other disadvant- ages This, to my mind, is the sem sible method of solving the demobil- ization problem, and, by the same token. increasing the morale of our armed forces to the greatest de- gree possible.
 The House Military Affairs Com mittee should take immediate ac- ton in this direction and I am to- day proposing such action to Chair man May of that Committee"

ment handed to Moses. Indeed, the Golden Rule is the first rule of ten of the eleven great religions of the world. And for those of us who are true Christians, 1t is painful indeed to imagine what our dear Lord would say to many of our most re- spectacle citizens in the U.S.A. who dare call themselves Christians to- day if He were to come again. He would be very angry, think, at the way they treat the Negroes, the most dispossessed, ill treated, and abused of our population. He might say in condemning them, "Foras- much as you have done unto these, my brethren, you have done unto Me. ."
 "Yes, many older people-far too many-in America today forget that what made America the greatest and strongest and happiest of na- tions, what Abraham Lincoln called the last best hope of mankind, was that our whole political "ideology" was based on this particularly Christian precept of all men being created equal in the eyes of God and, therefore, entitled to develop to the best of their capacities.
 "But you have remembered, Carol. You have not forgotten. You have behaved and thought as I would have been proud to have my own daughter do. So to you and the I50 who have stood by the best and truest in our nation, greetings. And greetings, too, to the parents and teachers, and the corn- munity of Waterbury, which built such character in you.
