A form of questionnaire has been prepared. Fully filled out, this form will give the company the desired in- formation. No obligation, of course, rests upon any person toraid the company in this ‘movement, but it will be readily seen that in the inferest to Danielson as a community it is ‘of prime import:yice that every possible assistance. be giv- en the corporation, which has been such a mighty industrial asset to this place, and is now seeking to become more_ so. If the company is enabled through the co-operation.of the general public to_increase its ‘production by the ad- dition- of more machinery and the employment of more operatives, the benefit -to Danielson will be general. More operatives means a bigger week- iy payroll, more money to be spent with the merchants and others and many jobs for many people long after the war is over. Danielson’s oppor- tunity is at hend. There is no suggestion of charity connected with the enterprise being worked out. Families who have rooms to rent or who will take boarders will be well paid for so doing. Each fam- ily, in fact, is expected to fix the rates at which it will render the service desired. In a large measure, the movement has its patriotic side, for the Connec- ticut mills' is one of the largest pro- ducers of textiles for the government in_ this section of Connecticut. While the company is_doing its ut- most in building new homes for its operatives and already. has opened whole ‘new streets -of dwellings. the housing development is ot keeping pace nwith the factory growth, so the alternative is to seek out among the families of Danielson those who have are rooms in their homes and are ling to make them earn something letting them for ~quarters for workers. seorge V. Holland, New York, who is directing the canvass now under way here, said Thursday that he is anxious that the people get the right impression of what the company de- | sires to do. Representatives of the| company are to visit homes all over | Danielson. These representatives will | seek to interview the heads of house- | holds along the lines here suggested. The information sought is purely in the initerest of Danielson as an indus- trial center, though it has a direct bearing on the winning of the war. Those who co-operate with the com- pany will be performing a patriotic service as well as helping the perma- nent industrial advancement of their home town, and, in addition, will ben- efit financially. While the conpany hopes to increase decidedly the number of its employes, it has made very clear the fact that it does not wish to disrupt the organ- ization of other industrial plants in the town. Many employes undoubted- Jy will be obtained from out of town. It is hoped to obtain many more here —from the ranks of those who never have had textile emplovment or who never have worked at all. There are many easy. positions for such as these | to be offered, and at zood pay. From uch workers, Mr. Holland said Thurs- it will be possible to develop skilled workers within a few weeks, anq these, w ell paid, can do their bit tow the winninz of the war.
