Frank has appeared in several productions around the city and has never failed to bring down the house. When he strides out before the lights with checkered vest, tight fitting coat. waxen moustache and spats and starts his lingo flowing the grouch- fest of critics just has to laugh.
 There are other features in the show which have been incorporated in the program to make it versatile enough to please the tastes of all kinds of show lovers. For instance songs that have been on the lips of popular tune singers daily are es- pecially arranged for presentation :. There's "Wabash Moon" to be sung by Billy Summa, whose voice is not unlike that of Morton Downey, popular radio singer who composed that very popular current hit. The chorus of 35 voices in four part harmony have this number down pat and it should be one of the hits of the show.

The women's national com mission for law observance and law enforcement, sometimes referred to as the "women's Wickersham com mission" because of it's ayowed in- tention to fill the gap alleged to have been left in the Wickesham report, has just concluded it's con- ference. Yesterday the National Women's Democratic Law Enforce ment League opened a biennial con- yention. Today the women's organ ization for national prohibition re- form began it's conference.

 Mrs Jesse w. Nicholson of Chevy Chase, Md, chairman of the law en- forcement league, told her follow CTS that the democrats would have to get rid of John J. Raskob. chair man of the national committee, or a drive would be made to incite deser- tions from the party.

 Mrs Peabody denied the charge of Mrs Sabin that the former did not actually represent 12,000.000 wom- en, as claimed.

Stress Need Of
 Continuing Pledges
Believe Mayors Unemployment Committee Should COn= tinue Collections and Provide Employment For JObleSS

The industrial situation has not yet improved so that 1t would be wise to discontinue the effort being made to assist people who are out of steady employment. The fact that during the past winter over $300,000 was subscribed and paid out to laborers shows how much good has been accomplished on a plan which 50 far as can be learned worked no hardship on anybody, most of the donors contributing but small sums. From the looks of things now, there will be just as much need of continuing the fund as there was when 1t was started. Some may say that the winter is now over and there will be more openings and people who are able and willing to work can find some- thing to do, if not in the factories out-of-doors.
 This sounds plausible enough, but just the same those in a position to know something about future prospects say that Waterbury will have to continue the unemployment system longer than May 1st else many will be thrown on the labor market with no likelihood of find- ing anything to do for a long pe- riod. If this be true. and there is no good reason to doubt it, 1t stands to reason that steps should be talk en to see that the pledges are re- newed and kept until such times as there Is a marked improvement and 1t will be plain to everybody that the plan cannot be discon- tinued without fear of having to take 1t up again, something which would be more difficult that 1t was to make a beginning. No doubt there will be many who will want to employ men for a few days. but even so unless there Is some desig- mated place where orders for help can be left, it will be difficult for most people to get in touch with people who will want to employ them. There is no scarcity of work that needs doing, and it does seem that 1t would be a wise policy to get some of 1t attended to on the unem- ployment plan. It Is not necessary to go on private property to find work that needs attention and
 which probably will be left on the waiting list for years unless 1t is handled in this way. The work done since the employment plan was commenced will tell for itself, but In case it should be halted now much of what has been done will not look well: almost like starting a house and leaving 1t half finished. More than half the rocks uprooted in Washington Park are still beside the

The same is true of other places, so that there is no question about lack of work. Not to mention the parks, many streets have been ordered laid out, some of them are half finished and more have not been touched at all. Why wouldn't it be a good plan to have this work done and put the city in a position to collect the as- sessments? If the people are will ing to continue the unemployment fund, the committee in charge should not tire of the job. When this dull spell is over Mayor Hayes and his committee will feel amply repaid for the effort they put into raising the fund and the public will not be unmindful of the fact that one of the worst periods in the his tory of the country was tided over in Waterbury without much suffer- ing.
