DEMOCRATSPUT
TRADE REFORM
PLANS AHEAD

A program of financial and
trade reform was being evolved
today by Democratic leaders of
the House as its Economy Com
mittee completed it's task of de-
vising ways of reducing Govern
ment expenditures
The plan of Democratic leaders
embraces banking and tariff
legislation.
The Democratic tariff bill
which has passed both bodies,
will be brought before the House
Wednesday for acceptance of Sen
ate amendments.
Shears Hoover Power
The measure provides for the
calling of an international con-
ference to study means of reduc-
ing tariff barriers and further
ing trade. 1t strips the President
OF his power to make tariff
changes under the flexible pro-
visions of the present law.
Two bills embracing the finan-
cial program have already been
reported by the House Banking
Committee.
They include the Goldsborough
bill directing the Federal Reserve
Board to stabilize the purchasing
power of the dollar and restore
prices to the average commodity
price level between 1921 and 1929.
Silver Farley Sought
The Steagall bill setting up
guaranty of bank deposits plan
with provisions raising the
minimum capital stock of ma
tional banks and another de-
signed to bring more banks into
the Federal Reserve System is
the second financial measure.
A bill for calling of an inter-
national conference to stabilize
the value of silver is expected
to be recommended by the House
coinage committee as part of the
program.
Democratic leaders, contending
that the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation and other measures
proposed by the Administration
are temporary, will urge their
own plans on the ground that
they will be of permanent benefit
to the Nation.

THE USE OF MILK
 IN THE SCHOOLS
Has Much to Do With Good Health of the
 Children
NEED MORE FUNDS

Health conditions in the schools of Waterbury are excellent at the present time, according to the de- partment of health. Washington school, taken for example to-day, showed a 100 per cent attendance despite the indictment weather. This shows, 1t was stated, that health conditions throughout the schools of the city. as a whole, are very good considering the stormy wea- ther Waterbury has been experienc ing during the past couple of weeks.
 The ruggedness of tht children, 1t was explained, Is due largely to the distribution of milk under the direction of the health department The school milk fund continues to grow slowly but surely but the fig- ure now on the books Is about $3,- 900 short of the $10,000 goal Set at the opening of the fall term. However, contributions continue to come in, Dr F, J. Godfrey, the city health officer, stated to-day. A week does not pass without some | money being realized. Of course, he added, the contributions should be more frequent and heavier in order that the distribution of milk can be kept up among the children till | the close of the school year in June.
 pr Godfrey is chairman of the milk fund committee and directs the distribution work in the var ious schools. He is of the opinion that the cancelling of such work at the present time or in the imme- diate future would serve to set back the fine health conditions now existing among the children.

remind man that as he Is made from dust, to dust he shall return. In recalling these words which are spoken by the priest when placing ashes on the foreheads of the faithful on Ash Wednesday, Father Bowling spoke in detail of mans short stay here on earth, the ne- cessity of being prepared always for death and leading a life that will ensure a happy death with the promise of eternal reward hereafter. Father Bowling said that in this modern age there was too little thought of this spiritual aspect in contemplating death, and that 1t should ever be before one.
 Father Bowling spoke briefly yet forcibly developing his subject con- sistently and with directness and fervor. Next week he will take for his subject, "The Divine Ex- emplar."
