RECRUITING DRIVE FOR NAVY SUCCESS Gonnecticut, With 61 Enlist- ments Is Ninth in Race The navy recruiting officer at New 3ritain announces that the first week of the navy recruiting drive for| first enlistment showed excellent re- sults throughout the nation. Throug- out the United St for the week ending January 6th over 3,000 men | applied and 1,030 were accepted and enlisted. Recruiting officers report a great rush of aplicants for enlist- ment. However, as indicated from the foregoing figures, the high re- quirements for enlistment in the navy are still in effect. ‘hough loeal conditions, cold weather and a _certain amount of unemployment may have something to do with the rush to the recruit ing offices, the many advantages of- | fered by the navy to the young man- hood of the country still have the greatest appeal. The most popula inducements for enlistments machinists, radio electri neral electricians, and pharmacists trades, which vided for in the service school: ent athletic system of the navy 1so has a it appeal, Not the the thought of the extensive travel and the present day activities of the United States navy in Nicara- | zua and China brings the red-blood- ed American youth to the recruiting station eager to enlist. The present drive is necessary to bring the total strength of the navy from 61.384 as it stood on December 31st, to the $2,500 allowed by the exee ast appropriation act. Also many ex- | & nirations of enlistments occur durinz the present month.

Canning is, in fact, & war- born industry, the discovery of the principie underlying the preservation of food by this process having been the direct result of & prize offered by the great Napoleon, who sought better food for his armies. sThe) navies of those times had even greater need of food that would ward off the dread scurvy and they profited more from the discovery of the principle of canning than did the armies which, after all, were often in position to get succulent foods they needed.
