ArmoryFIoor Rental Price RumorDenied
BY WIN MALONEY JR.

Despite constant rumors going around to the effect that the State Guard, which has now taken charge of the State Armory, was going to charge High Schools Sl50 for the use of the Field Street basketball court, I have learned to the con. trary.
 Major J. Peter Costisan, head of the committee in charge of the Field street playing surface, said the cost to any High School to rent this floor would be $4O plus the cost of the bleacherS which, ct present, the State Guard must rent from the Park Department. The $l60 figure, rumored as the rental cost, applies only to promoters who want the use of that floor for professional sports.
 Costlgan further states "that the State Guard is going to put the greater portion of the profits into much needed equipment, such as more bleachers, score boards, and enlarging and maintaining the play Ing surface and seating capacity"
 On the 18th of this month bids will be advertised for c company to make repairs on the Armory, in- ciuding the cutting of four more exits in order that the seating capa- city can be raised from the present 930 limit to 5000.
 Switch Favored
 The use of the Armory for the playing of the second court contest between Crosby and Wilby would be the smartest move the two AA's could make. After, personally sit- ting through the first meeting of the two schools in the Wilby Gym, in the terrific heat, I whole-heart- edly recommend the switch. The surroundings would be more ideal for the players, spectators and press alike. But the biggest detriment to local players would be overcome fl this change was made, that being the complaint that the players on the three Waterbury squads are un- able to adjust themselves to the Torrington State Armory, and the New Haven Arena Gyms. With the Armory as . home court these youngsters, could adjust them- selves to almost any court in the state.

Meyer recently mustered enough influence to persuade President Truman to appoint him head of the World Bank. Apparently, the banks operations haven't been go- ing well enough to suit him, and so, in an adress to a meeting of poli- tical scientists in New York, he sought to pin responsibility on strikes at home.
 These strikes, he declared omin- ously, have held up production to such an extent as to threaten world starvation" delay economic recovery overseas, and inlperil "the winning of the peace"
 There's big question as. to how much Meyer, his fellow bankers and the political scientists" pro- duced during the war and recon version periods, if anything, but there's no question that the work CTS set records in output.
 Record Coal Output
 Take the matter of coal. It has been popular to abuse the miners, and Meyer joined in that tactic. He inferred the world has suffered because of tagging coal production in his country. |;
 Actually, however, the latest of ficial figures show that for the past six months coal production has averaged over 12,2OO,0OO tons a week, "the highest sustained week Iy production on record" Most miners have toiled 56 hours a week to achieve that figure.
 Furthermore, as of November,

EstOnian Refugees Permitted to Remain
Bend and Kiss Soil When Told of
 President Truman'S Decision

What America means to refugee Europeans was dramatically dem onstrated at Miami, Fla, by 48 Es- tonianS who recently landed in Florida without immigration visas after a dangerous journey across the Atlantic in small boats.
 They had fled their home land when the Germans invaded and refused to return after Russia oc- cupied their country.
 When word reached the refuges that President Truman had de- creed they will be permitted to re- main in this country, tears of grat- itude flowed down their cheeks. Some bent over and kissed the soil.
 Valdemar Martin Tolli, who plans to marry a Miami miss, said:
 We want to thank your great President, very, very much. He must be a fine man with big heart. We'll do our best to make good citizens. He can depend on uS."

storage stocks of coal had passed the 56,OOO, 900 ton mark, nearly IS per cent more than a year ago.
 As for other fields of production, the latest report of John D. Small, chief of the Civilian Production Administration, showed that work CTS are establishing records in al- most every branch of industry.
 New Peaks Reached
 Small cited product after product that reached new postwar highs" in September. That achievement is particularly significant, Small said, because September-the last month for which full figures are available three less working days-that is, an extra Sunday, Labor Day and one less calendar day.
 Despite the shorter working month, American industry main tained near-peak production" and produced about as much as$ in August" Small pointed out.
 Contrary to Meyers contention of lag on the home front, Small declared that America has about reached the goal of full employ ment and full production and that "this record of fast and efficient transition from war to peace has never been equalled, or even ap- preached, by any other nation"

TO me nothing Is more pitiful
than the sight of a boy or girl
sitting In wheel chair or standing
on crutches on the sidelines while
other boys romp and play.
Clutches Discarded
Sister Elizabeth Kenny has
proved to the world that In thou
sands of infantile paralysis cases
these crutches and wheel chairs
could have been discarded and the
children could have led healthy nor
NAL lives il they had been given
quick and proper treatment.
Miss Kenny has proved also that
It is unnecessary for children strick.
en- with infantile paralysis to suffer
pain. humiliating deformities and
other complications.
'As the father of four children
have deep appreciation of the
work that Miss Kenny and the Eliza
beth Kenny Institute are doing and
l know that the people Of America
will join me in attaining our cam
paign goal and assuring the children
Of America that their future health
will be protected"
In his announcement, Crosby EN-.
phasized that one-hah of the funds
In each state will remain in that
state to further the campaign
against infantile paralysis in local
communities. Funds, Crosby said,
also will help to:
Restore countless victims of in
fantile paralysis to normal lives.
4 Lessen ravages Of this Gripping
disease for its victims.
Enable polio sufferers to recover
use Of their limbs.
Finance full training of Kenn,
technicians for permanent stay a,
clinics throughout the country.
Intensive Research
Provide periodical study courses
for physicians and technicians.
Conduct intensive and nationwide
clinical research on poliomyelitis
and related diseases.
Perpetuate and extend the scope
and benefits Of the Kenny Institute
not only in the United States but
throughout the world.
