The Connecticut State Council' of Defense is not, as its.name might. im- ply, an organization to deal' only with the state policy and affairs. It eame into existence at the rejuest of the federal zovernment to act as its agency in carrying out in this state the broad federal programme of snfety, educa- tion, and consérvation mazde nece: sary in most cases, and .desirable in all, by the declaration of war with 1t consists not only of the iwenty-one men and women notv cons stituting its central authority, but of theusands of voluntegr committee workers with an efficient organization in_every eity and town in the state. This country and state were utterly lacking in machinery adequate to un- dertake ‘the work made necessary by war conditio The fact that a ‘vellz large percentage, practically all, the worl: was organized and planned by #lun‘a>rs and executed with uni- form success by thousands of velun- teer worke er|nsth¢' credit of 'he state. Mis- been made, of course, which i mot have heen wholly avoided even had the workers been trained for the emergency so immense was the task. But the fact that unde: the wise, able and paiient leadership of Gov- ernor Holcomb, this council, and the multitude of loyal men and women constituting its organization through- ont the te Lave been so largely the means emploved whereby =Connecti- cut has, with a minimum of ‘expense, been pldced and kept in the very front rank of the states of the nation In its war work, speaks well for the efficien- ey of the organization: ‘We all rescnt the fact thst Germany in forcing us into war made it neces- sary for this state to spend to Novem- Ler 1st u total of $195,009 to éarry on but this sum seems {#mall in comparison with the expen- ditures of other states for simyar v for example, Massnchusetts has spent over $694,000, Ma nd, $550,000 and Michigan $3,500,000. x We must consider that there is pub- lic sentiment that the counci} has done its korfl. that the war is over, and the object for which. the council was ere- ated has been accomplished. and that, therefore, fts activities should cease. We must take into conmsideration the American trait of a feeling of resent- ment aganst what is considered inter- ference with .personal 0: busness ac- tivities. This feeling has been largs- ly laid aside during the war, but is very properly ~ returni perhaps ctronger than ever after having been held in restraint. We must also con- sider the perfectly natu ‘#d nor= mal desire of the men and women of this council and its erganization ti turn to their long neglécied business affairs, which they have ungeifishly laid aside, offen at considerable real sacrifice, to undertake this work. \ Tt would be trulv deplorable, how- show, however, relatively small.

Not less than the problems of the war period, are the problems of ‘the reconstruction period for our best thought and efforts. The Jessbng taught us by the war should net be lost sighmt of, but, rather should we profit by them to the future benefit of nation.

But there are other ac- tivities made necessary by .the war, which it is of utmest import: continue under the uncertaintil of readjustment, until such time as the need has been removed, or until they can be taken over by duly authotiz- ed agencies. Meanwhile the Connecti- cut State Council of Defense. organiza- tion constitutes the only raeans to car- ry on the work, and the National Council of Defens» ‘has asked -the' Btate Council to lkeep their organiza- tion in full working efliciency to car- ry out the federal plans.

In advising the continuance of the committees enumerated in Group IV, we suggest that each committee pre- pare a record of their work accom- plished and their plans for the fu- ture, with' Icfinite and explicit rea- sons for a' -~ontinuance, that such re- ports may ‘be available for the proper Goramittee of the legislature having in charge the future of all this work.

D. ‘'Hood, federal director for Connecticut of the reserve. Similar drives for recruits will be instituted at the same period throughout the coun- try. Mr. Hood said that the purpose of ; the campaign in Connecticut, as else- where, was ot provide additional farm labor against the food .shortage now faced by the world. Plans will be an- mounced later. “Although peace seems certain, thei world today faces the most alarming food shortage) in history,” Hood. “In America this shortage is} due almost entirely to a lack of farm labor. Accrding to present estimates, starvation will overtake many parts of Europe unless the United States can produce a maximum amount of food- stuffs in 1819. The full development of the United States boys' wo: re- serve as a source of farm labor is} therefore more important to the na- tion than ever before, as it is one of the chief mediums of supply for a sorely needed farm labor.” Mr. Hood added that in Connecticut plans were under way by which he hoped.and expected to have 2,000 boys available for labor next summer. i MARRIED ALLING—PORTER—In Nprwich, Nov. 1918. by Rev..

AESRS————— CARD OF THANKS. We take this means of thanking our neighbors and friends for their prompt and kindly zid, when fire threatened to destroy our home, Sunday morning Mr. and Mrs. P, J. O'Leary of Kirt- jand street, who received a telegram from Washington about three weeks ago telling of the death of their son, Private Timothy §. O'Leary, in France Oct. 9th, were happy ‘Monday when three Jetters from him bearing dates ot Oet; _16th, zem and 24th came to them. = As the first notice from the lg ernment the family did not believe news a.uu:entic ‘because of,the in- correctness of the despatch. It stated that Private TimothWd O’Leary was dead, and it has been known here for several months that he was promoted to a higher rapk in the army. Also at that time letters were received by the family in town and friends in New London ‘that' led them to believe some mistake had been made. ‘Shortly after the . first despatch a cablegram was sent abroad, but up to late Monday no answer had n’ received. The letters Monday prove beyond doupt that his| death, if true, did nef occr Oct. 9th, although the name of Private Timothy 8. O’'Leary of Deep River has been of- ficially: printed ‘in the government list of casualties. - The many friends of the young man were more than pleased Monday when they heard the ' latest news. He enlisted from New London in the engineering division, and at the time of his entry into the service was employed by the New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford Railroad company at. the Vew London. station. curdi to Liberty Loan Committee Members.
