The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-07-07

The next meeting of the board of charities will be held next Mon- day night at 8 o'clock in the office of Superintendent of Charities A. B. Cross. One of the matters that is expected to come up for action Is the painting of the borough alms- house. At the last meeting of the board the matter was discussed and referred to the committee on buildings.
 The board proposed that painters out. of employment be hired under the supervision of competent master painter to do the work in- stead of having bids called for. Shortly after the meeting was held the local Painters, Decorators and Paperhangers union took ex- ception to the board proposal and claimed that the charity depart ment should call for bids for the work. The spokesman of the union men stated that the painters were not looking for charity, but believed that they were entitled to consideration and should be given the opportunity to make a few dollars if the borough was to paint the buildings of the Town Hall property. Whether the kick of the union men. will, have any bearing on how the property will be paint ed will probably be determined at the meeting Monday night.
