MISS EUNICE AVERY
 AT WOMEN'S CLUB
Discussed Withdrawal of Germany From Geneva
 COnfab at Meeting

Germany and its withdrawal from the League of Nations and disarmament conference at Geneva was discussed by Miss Eunice Avery at meeting of the Water bury Women's Club yesterday. Miss Avery said the real trouble with Germany is that she has an infer iority complex and instead of the cringing type, is putting 1t over by strutting and puffing out its chest.
 The most important phase of the present situation in Germany is not the persecution of the Jews as we in America believe. Miss Avery said. Liberals in Europe are much more concerned with Hitlers policy toward German women. The German republic gave German wo- men equal rights but Hitler is gradually taking them away. He Is following the line of Mussolini in insisting that woman's place is in the home and the chief function of women, the bearing of children.

You will notice that the high schools increased year by year un- til 1883 when the decrease noted above is shown. A comparison of figures for the past five years shows an actual gain in high school enrolment of approximately 8 per cent.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-10-17

The following communication submitted at the meting of the Board of Education yesterday by Superintendent Thomas J. Condon will be read with interest by all who want to know the reason for the decrease in school attendance in Waterbury:
 Enrolment in the three high schools is 4,439 as compared with 4,457 last year, showing a decrease of IS. Crosby has an increase of IT pupils, and Leavenworth one of 57 pupils, while Wilby actually shows loss of 92. In all three high schools.we have this year only 107 post-graduates, a decrease of 54 per cent over the situation g year ago. The postgraduate prob lem, therefore, seems definitely to be taken care of. The high school enrollment appears to have reached it's peak last year, and if industrial conditions continue to improve, un- doubtedly no great increases may be expected in the future, unless the population of the city itself is greatly augmented, a condition which at present we do not expect. In confirmation of this, beg to submit high school enrolment fig- A-. H-

From these figures It IS evident that there has been a constant de- crease in the grades for the past five years. Actually, in those five years, there has been 8 reduction in enrolment of 12 per cent in the elementary grades. This constant ly decreasing number can only be explained by the reduced birth rate, and also by loss of popula- ton, of which there was evidence a short time ago in the prepara- ton of the city voting list.
 That the parochial schools are not responsible for the loss in the public schools is evident from fig ures submitted for the past three years:
 1891 4,735
 1882 ............... 4,646
 1883 ..... 4,527
 As a matter of fact, this year. even in the parochial and private schools of Waterbury, there is a decrease of 119 pupils.
 The total school enrolment for the present year is 16,877, de- crease of S96 over 1892. That the loss cannot be attributed to paro- chial and private schools is evident from the figures above which show a decrease in those schools also. The principal factors for the changes noted seem to me to be the following. First, lower birth rate; second, the change made in en- trance age; third, improved busi- ness conditions which have en- abled many of working age to find immigration which has caused a employment; fourth, the reduced lack of growth in the school popu- lation; and fifth, an actual loss in the city population of which there seems to be no doubt, according to the above figures.
 EVENING SCHOOLS
 Evening schools this fall have opened with an enrolment of 2,627, an increase of 64 over last year. The distribution in several schools is as follows:

The girls, Gladys Dean, Edith

is secretary to former Represen-

While the girls were singing
last night in the Calvary Baptist

D. {. FUND BILL
STILL DOGGED
BY DOUBTS
Rumors Rife on Personnel of
House Subcommittee Which
Will Hold Its Fate

In view of the undecided fate of
the 1884 District supply bill,
speculation was rife today as to
just Who would constitute the
House appropriations subcom'
mittee which will handle the
measure during its next journey
through the House.
Representative Clarence Can
non CD of Missouri was still in
sistent that he would serve on the
subcommittee as chairman, but
at the same time 1t was indicated
some important announcement
might be expected tomorrow.
Granfield Won't Serve
It also was definitely stated to-
day that Representative William
j. Granfield CD0 of Massa-
chusetts would decline to serve
further on the subcommittee.
Granfield's decision will leave
three vacancies on the subcom.
mittee of five members, even If
Cannon remains.
Granfield's decision to leave
also makes it certain that, should
Cannon, too, withdraw, Repre-
sentative Thomas L. Blanton OO
of Texas will be chairman, and
will have a full new committee
to work with.
Who for G. o. P?
In addition to interest displayed
in whether Blanton will become
chairman there is much interest
as to who will be the two Repub-
lican Representatives on the sub
committee.
Representatives William P.
Holiday of Illinois and Robert G.
Simmons of Nebraska, the only
Republicans on the old subcom-
mittee, were defeated in the No
vember elections and left office
Saturday.
An effort is under foot to re-
place them by Representatives
who have been mayors, aldermen
or city councilmen of munich
palities.
City Experience Wanted
Friends of the District are said
to have told House leaders that
members acquainted with the
Government of a municipality
will be more helpful to the Dis
trict than mere attorneys, as most
of the subcommittee members in
the past have been.
An effort also is under foot to
put members acquainted with
civic governments on the places
which will be left vacant on the
House District Committee which
legislates for all needs of the Dis
trict except those relating to ap-
preparations.

BANK VACATION
HALTSSTREAM
Of TAXPAYERS
Collector Towers Says Many
Merely Waiting Clear
ing of Situation

Long lines of taxpayers at the
District Building have dwindled
to a mere handful since the be-
ginning of the bank moratorium
and the steady stream of mail
into the collector has dropped off
to a small percentage of last
weeks totals.
Chatham M. Towers, Collector
of Taxes, said today that he is
receiving few checks in payment
of taxes, and still less cash.
Checks are being held, without
issuance of tax receipt, pend
ing collection.
Merely POstpOning
Mr.. Towers expressed the be-
lief, however, that many persons
are merely postponing the pay
ment of their tax bills pending
Qualification of the financial sit
uation.
Persons owing real estate taxes,
he pointed out, have until March
81 to pay them, and it is believed
many of them are taking advan-
tage of this time to see what is
going to happen in the banks.
Postoffice money orders are be-
ing received and handled as cash,
as they are not affected by the
moratorium.
Mr.. Towers was unable to say
whether an extension of the time
in which taxes may be paid with
out an additional penalty will be
extended beyond March 81. He
said he believed this would de-
pend entirely upon developments
in the banking situation.
Many Checks Worthless
Thousands of checks have been
received by his office in the past
month, Mr.. Towers said, and
many received before the bank
moratorium have proved worth
less. In these cases, he said,
there is nothing to do but to
notify the persons who sent the
checks that they must make
them good.
Before the banks closed many
bank notes of large denomination
were received at the tax office,
Mr.. Towers revealed. He ascribed
this to heavy bank Withdrawals,
believing it to indicate that many
persons had taken their money
from their accounts and placed it
in safe deposit boxes.

This leads to my second thought which follows much

The only difference is that it leads to no wealth.
At the moment, the whole world agrees on the de- de-
STABILITY of work. The miserable unemployed the
stern servant of the fascists the happy proetarlan

they want and hope to get But think that wnen we

Not as an economist but as worker, think there
