The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-09-20

the history of the post election of officers took place without Q single contest resulting. Splendid enthu. siasm prevailed over the harmoni. ouB outcome of tho selection of new executives. The nominations of Tuesday evening, September 9th, were confirmed last night. Walter A. Jarvis succeeds Morris Shapiro as commander, having served as senior vice commander and in many other responsible capacities for several years. His election Is viewed as merited advancement and is q most popular one not only among the ex-service men of Wat erbury. but throughout tho state. It is confidently predicted that un- dor his guidance Corp Coyie No l will experience one of the most Commander Jarvis will namo tho AdJutant and tho various commit tee chairmen following his installa- ton next Saturday evening.
 Reports of officers provided an interesting review of the year at last evenings meeting. Tho post but reduced tho deficit of previous years. The decline In membership, while only temporarily, hampered tho administration somewhat, but notwithstanding the general trend of the times. somo outsta nding work was accomplished. Nearly 800 men and women found employ. mont through the efforts of the le. zion In Waterbury. Scores of mon and their families were clothed and fed, given disqualification or funds. vetorans cases were taken before tho highest authorities of the state and nation for decision.
 Commander Shapiro compliment. cd his committee chairmen, gave thanks to the press for its assist- ance and suggested letters of ap. prociation to Rev John N. Lewis, Mrs Edith Ladd of the American Red Cross. William M. Harris of tho Mutual Aid and others who aid. cd the post in carrying on its pro. gram Of community activities. A special vote was given to tho auxil. iary for It's cooperation.
 Tho corps drum corps winning Ave cups during tho past year and attending numerous events of pub. lic interest, rounded out 0 most successful year. Many compliments were given to tho members and their president, Ray Walker, for their loyalty and corporation.
 Past Commander Walter Angle reported on rehabilitation, Robert r. Birt on service and relief, Jos eph Brenneis on tho drum corps. Attorney Joseph Hackett on Amor. icanization and George Karnofsky on sick visits.

WOMEN EIGHT OVER CLOTHES LINE
PERMANENT HOMES
 FOR UNEMPLOYED
Practical Suggestion But It May Not Amount to
 Anything
NEED STATE SUPPORT

The executives of the state de- partment of fisheries and game are said to be sponsoring Q movement to secure land for unemployed fam ilies, so that when not otherwise profitably occupied they could find something to do for themselves. The plan is practical, but the num- Der of acres, two and a half, men, toned for each family, would not be sufficient to put the occupants in e position to raise enough to stave off the wolf unless assistance was secured from other sources.
 It would require about ten acres of good land and a neat one fam. fly house to start a family off with any show of making good. With 2 motor car and home of his own there Is no reason why an indus trious man could not work his way through life and be much more secure than in the congested dis tricts paying rent. There fs an abundance of land in this state producing nothing, so that all 1t needs to get the plan of putting thousands in homes of their own Is for Q committee with the state or nation back of 1t to make com Ht0HStfueHts HI tH0 GHu iJ Wouiu be cheaper than maintaining peo. pie who are penniless and out of employment in any other way. AL ready the city of Waterbury has spent couple of millions aiding the unemployed and yet they have not accomplished any more than meet things from day to day. Why not make q move for something which would put thousands who have no means, in positions to be self-supporting? To do this folks would have to be removed from the thickly settled communi- ties into tho suburban districts and given assurance that the homes provided for them was to be their own, provided they show. cd c disposition to mako them. selves worthy of them.
 If something of this sort is not done, the old age pension will have to como here as well as in other countries. It is Q sad commentary to say that the United States is one of the few nations in tho world that has no old ago pension. A few states have such Q law, but Con- necticut is not one of them.

 The states witness in the case complained that Mrs Stokes be- came peeved over the question of lines that she deliberately empt- tied a pail of garbage on her lines of clothes. All pretense of neighbor- iy feeling or friendship failed to withstand the strain of this action and complaint was filed with Prosecuting Attorney Joseph A. Neagle.
 The two women faced each other In court today and told as was ex- pected, conflicting stories. The court on ordering Q truce continued the case with the warning that if any trouble results in the future ail concerned will be made defendants.

If all the business houses in Waterbury observe the MIRA code regulations as we'll as the shoe- makers, it will work all right here. You could not get one of them to drive a peg or sew a stitch for you after hours for love or money.
 Of course there is competition in this line of business as well as in all other lines of honest en- deavor and as a result there is some difference among them about the quality of material used and the character of workmanship. But that's matter for themselves and their customers. So far as the clos ing hours go, all of them show . disposition to observe the rulea
