Does You Stomach Agree with You?
If you and your - .stomach get along well together you should congratulate yourself on having such
pleasant working arrangement . Having your stomach agree with you is one of life's minor blessings.
As a new-born infant ,your first hunger cry announces tha t • you and your stomach have established contact. Prom then on, you work In close harmony. Your stomach makes lis needs known to you, and you satisfy them. Tha t is, you will It you are wise.
How the Stomach Works The normal stomach holds about
three pints ot food and drink Its walls secrete gastric juices, which digest certain ot the foods. For instance, It tu rns the red mea t we eat Into a liquid which can then be absorbed by the body through the walls ot the small intestine.
The stomach Is only par t ot the digestive system. As the process ot digestion progresses, a valve a t the-lower end ot the stomach opens automatically, allowing digested food to pass on Into the intestine. Here It Is absorbed into the bloodstream and distributed throughout the body where needed . I t takes three or four hours for the system
j'!o digest a meal fully. A stomach t h a t is fed the wrong
kincls,or quantities ot foods and l iquids ' . ,and. , generally ab&ed._ is likely to' 'act up and cause a lot lif trouble. ' •-
Stomach Trouble Common Plain and fancy indigestion are
common American disorders. More American workers lose time
from their work because of stomach trouble t h a n because of aniy other single a i lment except colds and Influenza.
Before the war, the time lost each year added up to 20 million days, and the wages lost amounted to 100 million dollars. Now, with our factories going full - tilt on war production, it is much more.
Generally speaking, figures t ha t apply to wage earners apply to the rest ot the population, too, so you can see what a lot ot trouble our stomachs cause us every year.
Much ot this loss of time and income could be avoided if people heeded the storm signals which the stomach gives us when there is trouble brewing in the midriff.
Industry is doing much to help Its employees avoid stomach trouble and other Illness by providing periodic physical examinations. The regular checkup is becoming more popular everywhere as people realize Its value.
Trouble in the Midriff Storm' signals from the center
section may be anything from bad-breath and "hear tburn" to ,nausea . Intestinal sluggishness, and agonizing cramps.
They may indicate anything from cancer and stomach ulcers to poisoning from some bad food you may have eaten. Or. you may simply have swallowed some air with your food to cause your Indigestion.
The cause of most stomach trouble Is either (1) rebellion against careless eating and drinking; (2) the effect of disease elsewhere In the body; or (3) disease of the stom_ ach Itself.
Disease elsewhere In the body somettmes are "telegraphed"to the sensitive stomach, which riins up a distress signal by causing you to have a s tomach-ache. Often a sick appendix Is felt not in the lower r ight -hand corner ot the abdomen, where It is located, but In the stomacii.
Avoid Food Poisoning Hear t trouble, diabetes, liver dis
ease, and gall bladder trouble may show up first as stomach upsets.
Food poisoning is caused by harmful germs in spoiled food. I t Is worthwhile to make sure the food you eat a t home, in restaurants , at picnics, and a t social suppers is properly prepared and properly kept until it is served. Food poisoning can be fatal.
But you don't have to eat spoiled food to be "poisoned." Too much of the wrong kinds ot food and drink can cause great distress, also.
Choose your food and drink wisely. Ihave always said: "Eat the five fundamental foods, t hen eat whatever else you want."
These five fundamental foods are : (1) milk; (2) meat or eggs; (3) fresh vegetables, green, yellow, and leafy; (4) whole-grain or properly enriched breads or cereals; and (S) fresh fruits, especially citrus fruits like oranges, lemons, tomatoes, and grapefruit.
Heed Danger Signals Drink plenty of water and fruit
Juices, especially in hot weather. Do not eat when you are tired,
worried, or emotionally upset, If you do, you m a y upset your s tomach, too. The best dinner music
I T wOUtD TAKE THE ' e H t m e POPULATION OF THt VIORLP TtMtHOUSANSl YEARS TO COUNT -rKe ATOMS

yet invented is laughter and h a p piness.
Be good to your stomach. Give i t the proper food and drink, in proper amounts under proper circumstances, and heed its warning signals by seeing your doctor.
It you t reat it right, you will •iliid>,^that your stomach will always be you r friend.

READER SUGGESTS LETTER VyRITING
A reader has suggested t h a t Branford residents set aside one day in August as Letter Writing Day.
On this day everyone Interested would mail a letter or package to some Branford man in t h e armed forced. Addresses and names could be provided for those who have no part icular friend or relative to write.
The idea has a pleasant tone. May we have suggestions and will some organization or group of people under take to see this through?
There is a general plea among those in the service that they do not h e a r often enough from thei r families and friends. There are some from here who have no relatives so perhaps receive little or no mail.

August for E. F, and G. War Bonds is $8,086,900. Branford Is $50,000, Eas t Haven $50,000, Guilford $5,000, North Branford $2500,
I t has been very diltlcult to es tablish equitable quotas for each of the 169 towns in the state, because of purchases by Individuals through agencies located in toiyns other than where they live.

ON HOW TO GET MORE PJEAIJUTS
Karly this year the Government asked Spiithern farmers to plant r),OOd,pOO acres mp,r.o ( f peanuts than they were aoeuHtoined to raise. And farmers of the South loyally responded-
But now there are some grnmb-lings and inisunderstandingH about the peanut program. To enconrjige tlje (|upply pf nuts tpr oil-making purposes a floor price 0|f $32 a ton >yas proir\is(!d, Now it develops that there is a coiling prjcp of l|i$85 a ton. And peanut ( 'rowers are not onlhusinstio phpul this n/irrow leeway.
'Uhey aver that the oput of pjrowing peanuts .is ycry qlpse to this allowoble level, and that thousands of (lores ot peanuts alf ready planted will not bo liarves-,ted for oil if .the price does not go above $88.

.(KFLijVTipN—:(iii one-cylinder words)
Inllatinii, as described in the dictionary, is a disproportionate and 7'ehilivoly sharp and sudden increase in the quantity of money or orqdit, or lipth, relative to the amount ot exchange business. In nc oordjincq . yith the law ot qiinntit,y theory ot inoney, in(hltion always prpdHfiO" a,ri..se in the priqe,lp,vel.
In simpler language and applied.,to the. present situation, inflation is caused by a shortage of consupier goods and a treinondous in-crea."ie in the amount of inoney paid out in wages.
For tlic lime being, we have stopped making automobiles, rotcig oriitors, bicycles and other useful, peacetime prpdnets that we could buy pud use any lime, pnd have epn'ceiilrate(l .on the prpduction of warplancs,'tanks, guns, bombs and pthev things tha't,arc nsofnl only in wartilne.

Writing in Natipn's liiujiness, Fred-DcArmpnd makes a very, qpmplctq survey of the rubber si|ua(ipn.

"T|iroughput the land,'a iinghty revolution is,in'progress," says this oprrespondent, "American industry is beating Ibo ploughshares of peacetime—^tlie antos, tho electric refrigerators, the toasters and the wa^ihing machine.s—into the swoi'ds ot total war; planes, tanks ond high explosive bonibs."
Wh'lc industry did not want this total eonversiqu to >var pro-duotion any more than the public wanted to excbaugo,their cars for tanks, the cplossus is now at work and results of the gigantic >yi)r e\'.-, fort arc discernible in every manufacturing center in the country.
Qn an all-out \yar productioiv basis, American industry has not only met and passed the "fantast ic" produotion sehedides laid down by tlio gpvernnient, but is beating the cpnibined Axis productipn in terms of planes, gnns, tanks and other essential fighting equipmeiit.

July 18, 1942 .Dear Sir:
With the entire United States and England crying out for a second front, with the Russian situation changing for the worse every hour, With tortured millions in Europe ready to spring to our aid, we delay to Invade the continent. The explanation Is, "We are not ready." "Ready" for what? .For a perfectly safe invasion? Probably hot, ,but can we at this time pick and ctioose? We have a pact declaring for a second front. We have millions ot men under arms and vast equipment tied up lii England. Meanwhile Hitler Is pushing further and further east. He Is compelled tp get oil at whatever cpst. Behind hlmi his newly acquired ernplre, Inadequately guarded, sprges with unrest. 'The bull: ct his arniy is deep In Russia vfhere distances are ener-mpus.

Yet, In spite of the unrest at his Tear, Hitler must continue his desi perate gamble. No price In men and materials Is too great for him to pay.. Without oil neither Germany nor Japan can long continue,
Until now," a powerful Red Army with high morate has been able to press every advantage. Thanks to their courage atW devotion, and to the intelligence of ttielr leadership, tile possibility of victory still exists, The advantage Is v'ltih us If we take it.

the case against Commissioner Cox, reopened the case and dismissed the Carstens. It Is their appeal from that.dismissal whlcii Is now being heard.
The Persennel Advisory Committee which Is hearing their appeal Is cpmposed of State Tax Commlsslpn-er Charles J. McLaughlin, ,Publlc Wprks Cppimlssloner Gearge L. Burke, Warden Ralph H. Walker,of the State .Prison," Francis W. Hogan of the Motor •Vehicles Department; Jolin E. Toohey of the State Hlgh-\yay department.
Ot these, Mr. Hogan Is a subordinate of State Motor 'Vehicles Commissioner John T. McCarthy, who has continued to be state chairman and head of the Democratic party while holding his State of-hoo, Me'. Toohey is not only afi employee of the Highway Department biit has been closely associated with Acting Commissioner Upman who Is well recognized as hostile to Commissioner Cox. Mr. Toohey Is the Highway Department subordinate ^yho was assigned to sit in a room separated only by a glass partition from tliat .us.fed ,by .CJoniralsslpnGr cipx when the latter was given access tp Highway Department .flies In preparing his defease and allowed tp use the telephone which had an extension in Mr. Toohey's room.
Mr. "Tpphey Is likewise pne pi thpse whp' was Instructed by Com-mlsslpner Ce'x, Just prior to his sus-pepslpn.to iiave npthlng to do during, business hours with Mr. Upnian, the latter then being under orders from Goyernor Hurley to remain awiiy from the Hlghw,ay Departmefit because pf the,opntrpYersy between
1 liim and" Commissioner 'Cbx.','"-'.
Mr;;Bui;ke',:as'PubUc Works Com mlssloher. Is active politically and recognized as not friendly to Com-mlsslpner Cpx. . .There Is very obviously a relation
ship, between the Carsten cases and the. Cox case. Mr. Upman, Mr. Toohey's superior and friend, dlsnilssed the Carstens from the department when he was well aware that Commissioner Cox, It he had been In authority, would have restored them to office. It seems to be agreed that if Mr. Cox is cleared of charges and restored to office the Carstens will be restored. If Mr. Cox is not cleared It may be taken for granted that the Carstens are. out.
It Is unnecessary to rnake any insinuations against anyone. It does seen patent on the face of thltigs that the set-up does not lend.itself to the kind of hearing In the Carstens' case which ought to be held. It seems to Indicate that such matters ought to be handled by a trial board conippsed of others than stii'te emiplpyees aiid state officials and particularly of others than employees subordinate to ofllials Interested in a speclflq case. 'The next Legislature would do well to give attention to the matter.
TF the War Labor Board blunders In favor ot the "Little Steel"
wage Increase, similar demands are certain to .spring up all around. The end result cpuld force the whole price struqturq.out ptllne apd control might go glimmering. Henderson and other ofllclals, therefore, are increasing.pressure on the Pre-ident tP spell out a wage stabilisation chart in dollars pnd cents.
With the problems Is how to have wage stablUzatlPn wHhPUt .freezing, a pplnt.by pplnt formula Is needed tp determine exactly under .what conditions Increases will be granted In all,Industries..Labor rails against freezing and advocates Industry -subsidies which latter measure.Congress opposes.
Confusion, which already has forced the President to take direct action ;to control farm prices, may also bring sufficient pressure to get down to brass tacks on wages. It is believed, by the politically Informed, howe"jr, that the administration hopes to dodge this Issue until after t(ie November elections.
Meantime the Washington picture presents many oddities: .Mr, Henderson, a top new-dealer being pushed all over town by labor pressure groups who, at the.same time, eulpglzed Mr. Nelson, a business man tpr his labpr-management pelloy.
'pHE whole wage situation neces-• sarlly involves consideration of
the War Labor Board's recent New England textile decision, which conceivably might lead to a policy of eliminating regional wage differentials, if this ruling, which granted wage Increases to nine plants, were adopted as ii national policy,'; it lyoiild make" wage scales unlfdrm throughput the country, Thts would cause general disruption of wage scales and almost certainly eliminate any possibility of the succ^ss-fupl pperatlpn pf Mr. Henderson's price cpntrol policy.
If wage scales should become uniform, 'Washington realizes that labor would have a strong tendency to evacuate congested Industrial centers and thlsmove, In turn, \yould aid and abet the plans ot the National Resources Planning Board which envisages the wide use of existing government-flnanced plants surrounded by government owned housing. - , ^ ..

The organization pf the Merit System In Connecticut makes the Personnel Adyisory Commute a court of last resort In iiandling the cases of state einployees .dismissed under charges. That plan leaves much to be desired.
That fact finds illustrations In the case ot William and Henry C. Cars-ien, brothers, whose appeal from their dismissal from.the Highway Department is now under consideration.

The World's Great Larder Did anything ever bring such sat
l^tylng surcease to hunger as properly fried chicken? Lay a piece of chicken, fresh from the trying pan, covered with crisp brown crust, on ablg dinner plate. Plop down beside I ta heap ot fluffy white mashed potatoes and a helping of fresh green peas. Add contrast, In taste and cclpr, with a sppontul of currant Jelly, red as/tlie fruit Itself. Then pass the gravy-—gravy made In the frying pan with milk thickened with flour, and studded with bits of .liver and gizzard. There, my friends, is food fit tor the gods themselves!—a conibtotlon 'In ', which, a , dozen wholesome' , flavoirs are subtly blended to produce.perfect satisfaction! ' : • ' ,
Any one who's lived in the South or Middle West knows what I'm talking about. Others, who contend young chicken should be cooked under the broiler or bjjast ot fancy French methods, have something yet to learn. And this is the summer to learn it! For the poultry producers ot this country, like our man-facturers, have stepped production up to almost unbelievable levels and young, fryable chickens are so plentiful they'll be the Department ot Agriculture's "•Victory Special" from July 15 to 26.
Last year was a record hatch year. But word sent out to the farmers that still more chickens and eggs are needed, so the hatch this year is 16% higher than last. This means that 50 million more hens are on the Job this year, producing so many eggs, that we can send 3 million dozen overseas every day and still not miss them.
The farmers ot the 'United States,
like the manufacturers, have never known how much they could produce because they never had a market that demanded the limit... Now the lid is off. Now they can really step on it and results are amazing.
Today we're producing enough food to send billions of pounds to our allies . . . and to feed a great army, better than any army has ever been ted before, and still eat pretty well as home, thank you! So far, sugar Is the only food that's been rationed . They say that coffee and certain other things may. be rationed soon. But even so, we'll have plenty to eat and send overseas because this. Is the United Slates—:a country In which nature and man cooperate to produce as mankind has never produced before!
The tools of war pour from our factories, making this the "Arsenal ot Democracy." At the same time, the farmers and tood processors are making it the world's great larder!

Happy Birthday Mrs, , Elbert Pleraon celebrated

N O R T H B R A N F O R D "Win or Lose Banquet"
The North Branford Fife and Drum Corps were entertained royally la.st week by Mr. Alexander Mo-Kernan who had them as his guests a t a banauet a t the Oasis, He called It a "Win or Lose" banquet, for he said their spiri t was of the , finest no matter which way the wind blew The corps who has won championships galore during their organization has now lost to active military service eight of Ihclr active .mem-bcrs as well as several boys who until recently played with the corps. At the recent state convention they, as a result, lost their championship. Only a few other than the members themselves were in at tendance.
Boys who left the corps to march uijder the same flag tha t always proudly led them In parades and competlltons, but now will encourage them In battle are Corporal Nicholas Buccelll, Joseph Buccelll, Dominic Marrono, Anthony DaCunto, Joseph Marrono, Jerry Bucceli, and Almond Provon?,ano.
In his remark Mr. McKernan mentioned the fact t ha t no mat ter how hard It was for the boys In active service, there was always one heart who knew no ceasing of anxiety from the time her boy left until she saw him safe a t home', the soldier's mother. And as one thinks of these remarks it is Impossible not to think, of one little mother, Mrs. Nicholas Buccelll of Twin Lake Road who has four sons, Louis, Nicholas, Joseph and Jerry in the armed forces, and as she looks down the i-oad she sees the homo of two nephews who are also serving Uncle Sam, Dominic and oJseph Marrone. Such Is the gift of mothers. In this case to the country of her adoption.

In presenting "Malice Domestic" this week in the Stony Creek "TViea-tre, Managing Director Ronald T. Hammond brings a new, thoroughly enjoyable play by Edward Percy and Reginald Denham, a play . which opens ra ther slowly with the murder of Mrs. Gordon, played by Shirley Gale but wlrioh gathers momentum steadily and logically.
Tha t describes "Malice Domestic", a logical murder mystery. At the final curtain the audience finds all questions answered satisfactorily and doesn't have to excuse the playwright for failing to tie up the loose ends brought about to misdirect suspicion and cause confusion.
Lack of fierce, hideous shocking •scenes makes the story pleasant to see but nevertheless secretive and obscure, a tale not of vicious hatred but instead one of love and loyally —but he-man.
Suspicion is cast so delicately tha t a feeling of sympathy, not ha t r ed Is felt for the characters .
In the final scene, so admirable played by Leona Powers, problems are solved and we feel t ha t Percy and Denham finished what they started off to do.
An cxceplionaly fine cast is offering this season a variety of plays which-get even bet ter as the season progresses, and the t ry-out of "Malice Domestic" is another star on Hammond's honor roll.

President Roosevelt Is reported t o have enjoyed the following p a r rot yarn so much t h a t he shared It with Prime Minister Churchill:
A sailor walked Into a n auction shop as the auctioneer was asking for bids on a parrot.
"Fifteen dollars," said the sailor. "Twenty," said another bidder. "Twenty-tlve," said the salloi'. "Forty," said the other bidder. "Forty-five," said the sailor. .No
fiiirther bids were heard , and t h e auctloneW said,'.'Sold."-
; The sailor took the bird and o a ^ c p i i s s e d b v e r . t h e money, and said: "That 's aii awful price to pay for a parrot . Can he t a lk?"
"Can h e talk I" exclaimed t h e nucllonoer, "Why, ' sailor, he was bidding against you."

What 's in a Medical Checkup? Discover a disease such as tuber
culosis or a condition such as cancer or stomach ulcers early enough and you have the bat t le for regaining your hea l th half won.
This Is common knowledge toda'y, when medical science can do so much to relieve human suffering if we give It half a chaneo to do so.
Too many people still postpone checking up on tha t headache, stomaohe-ache, toothache, mysterious pain, or other danger signal, until 11 Is too late.
Then the damage is often already done. The best physician In the world can ' t he lp , them the way he could, had they gone to him for a careful going over a t the first symptom.
And t h a t Is one reason why periodic medical checkups, or heal th ox. amlnatlons, arc so valuable. Thdy avoid needless suffering and expense. They frequently .'save life and can always assist In,prolonging I f
Industrial Tftootors Lead Way Schools and Industrial plants
throughout Iho country have long given periodic heal th oxamlnatlont to workers and lo sohool children to safeguard their heal th and the hca l tho f their associates and companions. Now the Army Is examining ttillllons ot men for physical ntness.
Industr ial physicians a t factories for years have used pre-employment medical examination to make sure the employee Is no t placed.In work which Is too fatiguing or for which he Is not physically suited. Periodic examinations follow to help the, employee In mainta ining his good heal th.
The rest of us could follov." Industry's example to good advantage Tliore Isn't one of us who couldn't benefit by having a regultir program for medical checkups.
How many of us overtax ourselves because we do not know oui own physical limitations? Years could be added to our lives It wt really knew wha t our own particular physical speed limit was and never exceeded It.
'And how m a n y of us would bt shocked to flndithat we had a case of some communicable disease—; however mild — like early tuberculosis, and tha t we were dally exposing our fomllles and friends to If,
Healthy youngslers should have periodic heal th examinations al least once a year, and children whc seem under par , or who are sick freqtiently should be checked up more often.
From adolescence i unti l 30 hijalthy people should have an examination every few years, depending upon the advice ot their physician. If there Is :any suspicion ol tuberculosis, examination should be frequent In order to detect and ar-: rest any Infection.
People over 50 should have n thorough checkup every two years. People over 00 should do It once n year. The chances arc you'll live longer If you do:
It iviusl I]« Good I t Is always well lo know what
constitutes a good, thorough physical examination yourself. I t helps you unders tand what the doctor Is doing, and why. I t helps,him, too, hcacusc you cooperate better when you unders tand theprocedure , Herei are some of the things he does, i
The first th ing the competent physician does on your first visit Is to write down your medloalhls tory for his p e r m a n e n t - r e c o r d . A t e a c h subsequent checkup he refers to your record and notes your condition for future references. . '
You say ' 'Ah!" for him, and he checks your tonsils and throat , then your teeth and gums. He's looking for trouble, yes; but tha t ' s wha t you want. If there 's trouble, le t ' s f lxi l t . If there 's none , tha t ' s fine and It does you good, to know It. , ,
OompUite'Check He h a s you blow through your
nose, checking, clearance In the nostrils. He checks you sinuses, perhaps wi th ,a little Ught t h a t he puts In your mouth. Inflamed slntises or blocked uasa l passageways may have been catislng all those colds you had .
He checks your hearing, your eyes, hear t , lungs, and blood pressure. You He on the table and he taps your s tomach. He,checks you for rupture , and he notes your au to -maUc reflestes ,whsn ; h e , t a p s yOur knee with the little rubber hammer .
There Is evidence to show tha t hea l thy people ,\yho have regular physical exomlijatloris enjoy better heal th and live longer than those who don't have rgular .checkups or who don't even go to a doctor when they feel under the ,wea ther .
I am Inciln'ad \6 think tha t . If we took as good care ot ourselves as we take o t our oars, we.would;probably be a lot heal thier t h a n we are.
The Branford Red Sox continued their way toward their first Shore •Line League, title last Sunday by beating the Durham town team twice by the scores of 2 to O and 4 to 0. The twin victory gained, sweet revenge for the locals be-! cause the only time the Sox have tasted defeat this season was a t the hands ot Durham In their first game. Since then the Red Sox have gone on to win their last eight games. Branford scored a run In the vei;y first Inning when Tobln opened with a single and Buddy Monlollus sen t him across the plate with a double. That was all the .scoring until the sixth when the locals scrapped up another run, when Owens walked and stole second. Owens then .scored on Genrloh's single lo left. Bradley with a double out of two trips to the plate and Montellus with a double and single out of three t imes a t ba t were the bat t ing s ta r s of the first game, for Branford, while Ashman with one for two .'itarred'for Durham. Bob Bradley pitched.himself a three' h l t ' b a l l g a m e while striking out nine of the opposing batsmen during the seven Inning stretch.
The Red Sox took u p In the very hrst Inning of the second game when they scored a run on singles by Orsene, Tobln, and Montellus: rhey scored twice In the second when Genrlch opened with a single. Owens scored htm with a double and Lepre doubled chasing Owens across the plate with the second run ot the inning. Owens s tar ted the s ix th .o l t with his second double of the game ancl'Orsene sent him across w l t h h l s third hit of t h e
day. Durham only got one scratch hit off the combined offerings ot Owens and Lepre while t h e , locals teed-olt on Burr for eleven hits In-iludlng five doubles..
This Sunday afternoon the Red 3ox will travel to Guilford to play ,he Guilford town team.—ZiSL.

"Qeorge Washington Slept Here," the very recent Kaufman and Hart comedy which bcguled New York audiences with its two and a halt hours of solid enjoyment, will be mirth - amazed anew by the Sloiij' Creak Players from July 27th through August 1st. I t is a story about Mr. Fuller. He is the man you know—the man absolutely everyone knows. An apa r tmen t bred man who suddenly has an Insatiable desire tor t ha t hlstory-nUed house in the country. He finds It. He buys It. His wife doesn't know it. A bit of persuasion and they move In. Many momentous discoveries about the country with their accompanying tribulations are made from that moment forth.
According to Sydney B, Wlilpple of New York World Telegrom, "It Is far more mellow in its na ture than "The Man Who Came To Dinner" and far less lunatic than "You Can't Take It With You." But what It loses in caustic, urban, wisecracking, It makes up in the more solid substance ot Its situations and the wider appeal ot its humor."
Mr. Albert Vees, who h a s staged over one hundred shows in summer stock from Bangor, Maine to San Antonio, Texas, In addition to stage productions In New York City for three seasons, directs this week. The parts are played by the more than popular members ot the resident company cast.
Donald A.ubury, who very convincingly shed his whiskers as the old Mahon In "The Playboy ot the Western World",for the pa r t of Maurice Fargeon in "Malice Domestic" this week, plays the par t of Mr. Puller. Mr. Aubury, who, among other accomplishments, has played In stock with Florence Reed, Alice Brady and Bert Lytell, can easily be pictured as this country-lured apar tment bred , Mr. Fuller. ' '
Frynne Hamden plays the par t of the doubting Mrs. Fuller, the type tha t doubts what you hate to admit Is true, bu t also the type that finally finds there really Is a jjlt more cha^m to a country house (even with cows In the kitchen and a root she is sure someone reinoved the minute the deeds were slgiied) than to a New YorH apar tment .
Miss Hamden was the flustered Miss Preen In "The Man Who Came to Dinner," the par t t ha t immediately established her popularity a t Stony Creek. She acted and managed with Clare Tree on the Major's CJilldren's Theatre , ^and was co-director of the Champl'aln Players in Essex, New York, last summer.

The Woman behind the man behind the gun" being the order of the day, the Connecticut League of Women Voters Is determined to do Its part to make this slogan a reality.
For the past few months the League's activities have centered around arousing the public to the Importance of the coming elections. Facts of concern to every citizen have been revealed In a Workshop on Absentee Voting sponsored by the League. Representatives of var. lous women's organizations partlcl-1 pated In the Workshop. Realizing' the enormity of the absentee vo^e in the coming elections, due to the thousands of electors In the military service and those working in defense Industries out of state, the League Is making a strenuous effort to help make the absentee vote more ellectlve and urges the citizens of the state to do likewise.
The flndlngs of the Workshop revealed glaring weaknesses In Connecticut's Absentee Voting Law. First, Connecticut is the only state allowing absentee voting In which the voter does not cast an actual ballot; the voter must use an "instructions to vote" form which does not even list ctindldates. This listing Is not possible because the three weeks elapsing between nominations and elections Is too short a time to allow for printing and distribution of a true ballot.
Secondly, our absentee vote Is not secret for two reasons; 1. The official administering the oath to the elector cannot avoid seeing the vote; 2. the two electors of different political parties, who must by law cast the ballot, know how the elector votes, although all these officials are sworn to secrecy.
The League Workshop favors a more practical method of absentee voting, but realizing this change cannot be effected without leglsla- I tive action, members of the Workshop agreed the practical approach Is to make the most effective use possible of the "Instructions to vote" form we now have. Every citizen can do his part In making this effective by getting as much Information as possible concerning possible candidates to the electors who are out of the state and. thereby clarifying the Issue on the home front.
that way. You suggested that I: try to find the battery from'Bran-ford over here. I know where Is is. but as of course you understand I cannot tell any more than I can tell you where I am.
All I can say Is that we are many, many miles apart. I mean to go sometime within the next two months to the place where I know they are, and I shall certainly give your warmest good wishes, those of your wife and the town of Bran-ford to them.
I I am glad to hear that Ruth and I Linus are standing by to repel the eneniy any time he raises his head beyond Nantucket. A blackout on Gay Head ought to be a fairly simple problem. I have seen nights so black there In peace time that I couldn't find my way around.
"The campaign here has relapsed Into a waiting period, but all of us are hoping for action as soon as
possible. Fortunately I am able to get New Englannd papers—though only from New Han)pshlre.— and have a pretty good Idea of what Is going on. But to a correspondent the Important thing Is what Is going on under the surface.
Whenever you talk from platforms I wish you would emphasize the seriousness of the task ; that lies ahead In the southwest Pacific. The naval victories are gratifying, but there .is a long hard pull ahead for us before we regain what others and ourselves have lost.
Please remember me to your wife and to Mrs. Richardson. If I could have my way I should spend the summer on Gay Head, but how that will work out remains to be seen,
Best wishes to you and thanks for writing.
Sincerely. George Weller

stale Highway Commissioner William J. Cox is back al his desk.
In exonerating Cox, Governor Robert A. •Hurley declared that charges against Cox which were proven were for the most part "acts o{ subordinates."
The following letter sent us by Mrs. .William Carsten of this place was written before the Governor's decision was made public but is even more interesting now.
Further Interest is the vote of the executive board of the Connecticut State Employment Association to go on record as highly approving Governor Hurley's decision In relnstat-irig Commissioner Cox.
An open letter, censuring the . Slate Personnel Advisory Commit

•Mrs. Carsten tells Commissioner McLaughlin that she read the committee's decision "with considerable interest and satisfaction because, at last ,the public is becoming jticreasingly aware of the tri-vlalness of the charges upon which the whole investigation was based, as your own feeble attempts to jus tlfy your decision have shown."

Special Meeting Called Tuesday On Ambulance
The Board of Selectmen, C. Ho-barl Bage, oJhn S. Rogers, and Frank R. Williams, have called a special town meeting for Tuesday,' August 4 at 8 P. M. in the Community House, corner of South Main and Monlowese Streets . An application, signed by more than 20 inhabitants of the town, has been filed petitioning the town meeting for the purpose of mainly considering the ac.< ceplance of an ambulance to bCi purchased from popular subscription and to provide for the care and custody and operation of such an anvbulance. • ' The meeting is also called to accept any trust fund or funds for the perpetual care ol any graves In tlio town.
Pointing out the severe penalties provided by the Law, Anthony F. Arpaia. Rent Control Director, issues a strict warning lo all landlords and tenants that under no circumstances can "agreements" fixing rent charges at other than the maximum legal rent be entered Into.
It has been reported to the Rent Control onice ol instances where landlords and tenants have between themselves agreed to boost the rent figure as of April 1, 1041 In order to make Section C — Item 7. Tlve Maximum Rent figure on the registration Form correspond. In the first place, Arpaia stated, this is a deliberate violation of the maximum rent regulation by both tenant and landlord and calls for a penalty of $5,-000.00 fine and/or one year imprisonment; in the second place, he continued, attempts to evade the purposes of the Rent Control: Act are unpatriotic and equal to^uny other act of sabotage.
In discussing these reports Arpaia stated, "Rent Control is a War measure. The success ol the Rent Control Act is Just as much a pari ol the War effort and contributes to the success ol this War as the efflclency and the abilities of the men on our many fighting fronts. We are all dedicating ourselves to a final, decisive and overwhelming victory over the enemy. Undermining any pari of the whole War program, whether at home or on the front. Is just as Un-American and unfair to fellow citizens as removing a fuse cap from a shell or weakening the strut on a bomber.
"When the Rent Control Office starts its investigations as soon as the registration period Is completed on August 15th, and such cases of "agreements'' are uncovered, prosecutions will be recommended."
Arpaia further slated that many landlords seem to be unaware of the fact than an agent may fill a registration blank for them. Letters have been received from agents of landlords who seem lo be under the Impression that they must have the registration blanks sent to theiA for personal signature.
The member of the family who Is acting as agent in connection w'ilh the property can sign the registration as such. However, he must Indicate the Section A of the Reg-

Warden Prefers Trap to Spray
Tree Warden Irwin Morton yesterday advised the use of traps In preference to, sprays to destroy Japanese Beetles. Sprays, he said, drives the pests to other feeding plots while a one trap catch is one quart or more of beetles In one day. Placed about the garden a few traps can be very effective.
He also advised against destroying skunks for those black and white animals thrive on beetle grubs and should be encouraged rather than destroyed.
Branford's Monlowese Street was the first spot, a few years back to discover damage caused by beetles.
July and August Is the Blitzkrieg period so from then on property owners should work out an offensive plan of attack. The control Is difficult and requires prompt attention.
