DISABLED WAR 2 WORKERS MAKE GOODA severe jog to the self esteem of the big and burly .
among us is contained in the official report that physically
handicapped workers in the war plants are turning out a better job than the able bodied. 6
: In a comparative study of 2853 crippled workers. and_.
5523 phy sically normal workers. the War and Navl Depart
ments found the normal employes lagging far behind in pyoduction and in quality of work.
The news will surprise strong and healthy producers who .
thought they were turning in a pretty fair performance up to.
now, but some reasons for the differential seern evident. The:
handicapped person usually takes his job more seriously, just
as he takes life with less frivolity, than his uhysically fit neigh.
bor. If he acquired his disability in battle, he sees the compel-.
ling need of his war work far more clearly than many around
him. !
A crippled person engaged in sires he is trained for, perhaps obeys the safety regulations even better than the man
who never suffered an injury. He is apt to be pretty dependable, steady on the job and probably less subject to absenteeism in baseball season. His disabilities impose’ limitations upon
him. but according to the Army-Navy survey he generally does
so well with the abilities he has left that he far outstrips his
normal fellow employes.
The splendid record handicapped war workers now will
serve as an inspiration, guidance and new hope to many more
thousands of disabled veterans who will be heading home
from overseas in the months to come.—Contributed.

The purpose of these appYopria.
tions is to purchase key waterfow] ,
habitat areas, strategically located .
with respect to crop growing centers .
and concentrations of wintering wat.
erfowl, which will be managed both .
as feeding and public shooting areas. .
In an explanation of this proposed .
plan, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife}
Service specicifally state# that. the
management of public shooting on . °
federal lands will be turned over io.
the State Division of Fish and Game.
If the: federal appropriation is not,
approved by congress it will be necessary for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to use. funds derived
from the sale of duck stamps for the
waterfowl management in this state.
This will mean, of course, that none
of the lands acquired can be opened
to public shooting since all lands
purchased with duck stamp money
must remain inviolate.
The Fish and Game Commission
feels that the lands whieh are to be
devoted ‘to waterfowl management
should be subject. to a flexible type
of management which will allow
them to be ‘opened to public shooting under state administration whenever conditions warrant it.

director of applied lighting for Westinghouse, dowbled-the pre war flood

the former lighting system with the
