chiIdren's prejudice
To the Editor:

10 the Editor:
I have a four year old nephew
who will soon be starting grade
school. Anti-Semitism and jim
Crow are quite prominent in
schools and all over the country
Proof of course is the current dis
grace of lynchings.
My nephew being Jewish boy
will certainly sooner or later
meet up with Anti-Semitism in
his grammar school. How would
I explain things to him? How
can he protect himself against
this fascist weapon?
My little nephew who knows
no hate but only kindness toward
his fellow human beings is only
one of the many innocent boys
from minority groups.

Try the Gesfupo
To the Editor:

The Nuremberg trial of the
Nazi ring leaders comes to an end
and the gangster leaders will gel
their punishment. Now we must
bring to justice the Gestapo =
who killed and tortured millions
of people men, women, chill.
dren and babes in arms.
Then we must try the fascists
abroad who supported the Nazi
murderers. These fascists live In
democratic countries, W h e
many were indifferent when the
Hitlerites were sharpening their
swords to slaughter the world.
The democracies were so neu-
trail that they didn't snatch the
swords from the fascists. History
will take proper inventory of the
so-called democracies who were
so Indifferent and so iinconcerned
in this tragic epoch of the Nazi
rnurderers.

Pamphlet Describes Servicemen's Fund

The Soldiers, SallorS' ana Ma rines' Fund, one of the outstand- ing provisions of Connecticut's long range program of benefits to veterans of this State, is adequate ly described in new pamphlet prepared by Capt. Eugene P. Arm strong, administrator of the fund, and published by the Connecticut Veterans Unemployment and Ad- visory Commission, which is now available for distribution to Con- nectcut ex-servicemen and ex-ser- vicewomen, Director James M. Quinn announced today.
 The pamphlet, designed to &C., quaint Connecticut veterans with the fiancial benefits accruing to them through the provisions of the Fund, contains a brief history of the administering agency, resume of the law which created the orig inal fund of $2,500,000 and the amendment which raised the sum to $15,000,00 methods of distribu- ton and eligibility requirements.
 The Fund, originally created for the veterans of World War I by the General Assembly of 1919, was amended by the General Assembly of 1943 to include veterans of World War II and was extended to the veterans of the Spanish-Ameri- can War by the General Assembly of 1945.
 The Soldiers, Sailors, and Ma rines' Fund disburSed the sum of s, 3,8O9, ,25O.24 to 15,000 World War veterans and their families, cover ing a total of more than 50,000 in- dividuals, during the first 25 years of it's existence. During the fiscal year July 1, 1882 to June 30, 1883, one of the most disastrous years in the history of this country, approx imately $300,00O was disbursed, the largest distribution for any one year to date. Furthermore, dur ing depression years from July 1, 1882 to June 30, 1889, disburse- ments tota1ed $1 1,531 ,499. .93-an av- craze yearly disbursement of $751; 837.O0 while the average yearly disbursement through the Fund from 19pO to 1881, a favorable economic period, was $145, 100000.
 The impact of World War II be- ban to be felt in the fiscal year from 1920 to 1881, favorable when more than 1900 World War II veterans received in excess of $150,O0O, while only 325 World War I veterans required assistance. Thus, 75 per cent of disbursements ar enow being made in behalf of World War II veterans.
 In every Connecticut community there is a local State Fund chair man, who is a veteran himself. He is charged with the responsibility of helping any needy veteran in obtaining assistance from the Sol diers', Sailors and Marines Fund. Any information given by the vet eran to the local chairman is held in the strictest confidence.
 Veterans may obtain their copy of the booklet at their local Vet erans Service Center or by writing to the Soldiers, Sailors and Ma rines' Fund, State Office Building, Hartford, Connecticut or to the Connecticut Veterans Reemploy- ment and Advisory Commission, State Armory, Hartford, Connecti- cut.

 Seeking to obtain Inspection Of the corporations financial records, Sirica charges in his petition that he has information that funds Of the corporation have been diverted for the personal gain of one or more of the stockholders and that the reports and balance sheets of the corporation do not report the true income and true financial worth of the corporation"
 The defendants, Alvina s. Qua trano, Frederick Quatrano and ot-, :OOF ,. -WiliAHm S.,
 William A. Sirica, officers and directors of the corporation, have been notified to appear for a hearing June 27 to show cause why a writ of mandamus, order ing them to allow inspection of the records, should not be issued.

CIO Demanding ToIbot Facts

Harold Senior, publicity secretary of the state CLIO. Council. last night forwarded @ demand request to Cong. Joseph E. Talbot (R.- Naug.) for information as to his exact stand on price control.
 Senior declared, The time of crisis for OPA and price control has arrived. The crucial votes de- termining whether, or to what ex- tent, price control will be continued, will be cast by Congress within the next few days.
 "The people of your district are entitled to know at once exactly where you stand, in order that they may have Q final opportunity to advise you whether they are in agreement or disagreement with your policies.
 Pointing out that prices have risen within the past few weeks, "as result of Congressional attacks on OPA," Senior asked, "On exactly what items bread, butter, sugar, milk, eggs, meat, clothing and dura- ble goods-do aou advocate the lift ing or retention of controls?
 Tt is our hope that you will aTl- swer these questions specifically and make a scrupulous effort to avoid any congratulations that might pre- vent your position from being fully clear" the message concluded.
