 According to incomplete infor- nation. the membership of the local aerie is $50. Where the local Aerie of Eagles will make it's headquarters, providing the lodge is unable to meet the taxes and protect the bank, is matter still undecided.
 The taxes to be foreclosed for cover about four years. There are many Eagles in Waterbury and the local aerie has been considered a successful sone. Therefore, the foreclosure proceedings instituted by the city to collect back taxes are expected to cause much com ment.
 Tax Attorney George R. Guilfoile when interviewed today, admitted that the papers had been issued to City Sheriff Roach. He pointed out that the proceedings were in the line of duty as imposed upon his office by the state legislature and that he was in duty bound to sign the writ and hand it to the sheriff.

CONNECTICUT IS NOT GOING WILD
 ON THE REPEAL
Always Did Snub Prohibi= ton Act-NO Real Liq=
 uOr to Celebrate

Hartford, Conn. Dec 5-(UP)- Connecticut, which never extended anything to prohibition but an of- ficial snub when it refused to ratify the eighteenth amendment, today precared to welcome the return of legal drinking without outward signs of hysteria.
 One reason for the calm was the fact there is no legal whiskey avail able in the state.
 The Connecticut liquor law also is one designed to put the damper on any plans for wild carefree night of carnival.
 If Connecticut's thirsty wish to celebrate tonight they will have to do it on beer. wine and possibly bootleg liquor. The speakeasies will be open as usual, but the hotels, restaurants and legitimate clubs will be pretty much under wraps.

BUDGET GOING TO
 THE ALDERMEN
They Will Get It Next Mon= day Night - Democrat
 Story Borne Out

Waterbury's 1894 budget, calling for a quarter-mill drop in the tax rate and per cent increase in pay for all city employees, as an-; nounced last night in the Demo- crat, will, it is expected, be adopted next Monday night by the alder men. Last night the aldermen met for their regular session and a vote was passed ordering copies of the 1884 budget printed and distributed to the various members. No comment was made on the budget because it was not in a completed form. It was voted to consider the figures next Monday night.
 The budget shows decrease of over $6,000,000 in the grand list. It does not call for an increase in the water rates. There are several new items in the 1884 financial program but in general the budget is set up in the usual form. It is believed that the tax rate and the raise in pay will be approved by the aldermen at their coming meet ing.
 Water Mains Asked
 At last nights meeting, also, five petitions for water mains were re- ferred to the board of works and IS petitions for the abatement and postponement of taxes were re- ferred to the committee on abate- ments. Five claims, for damages were referred to the law commit tee and the board adopted a rec ommendation from the same com mittee allowing Charles L. Grant $10,50 for seven chickens killed by stray dogs.

BY CLYDE c. BYERS United Press Stan Correspondent

Washington, Dec. 5 - (UP) = The impending end of the nations 13 year experiment of prohibiting the use of alcoholic beverages found the government in virtual control of the liquor industry to- day with far-reaching economic and social effects expected to re- suit from the change.
 The fight for repeal. long be- lieved hopeless, has been accom- plished with such speed since Michigan voted for it April 3. that many details of the governments program of temporary control re- mained to be worked out.
 The promulgation of codes and marketing agreements in the last two weeks, however, has estab- lished the governments regulatory power over distillers, importers and brewers. with prospects that it will be extended to wholesalers. rectifiers and winners before the week is over.

 Delay Causes Anger
 (By United Press)

 At Salt Lake City, delegates to the Utah convention decided to hold off the vote until about P. m. EST. It had ben scheduled TOT mid-afternoon, immediately alter the S4th and 35th states-Pennsyi- yania and Ohio-voted.
 The reason for the delay was said to be two-fold: 8 desire to make sure that Utah was the 36th state and a desire to have speeches at the convention broadcast at what was said to be a good hour of the evening for radio listeners: Never before had an important governmental schedule been in-t fluenced by such considerations.

There is considerable sentiment in the United

q President at six years and limiting his tenure OF office
to one term. That would seem to be an ideal way to save
\ President from dictation by political considerations
which would operate to insure his reelection, since every

QUICK PROMISES
(The Literary Service Bureau)

Some people viii promise anything.
Often we hear, "Yes, I'll be there
Eyes, I'll do it." "Sure. I will"
t"Put me down for SO many" Yet,
quite often these promises are made
without any consideration of circum-
stances or ability to keep them. These
are Of the sort designated as being
'like p~ie-crust; easy made and easy
broken"
Embarrassment, loss of confidence
and respect, misunderstanding and
Misrepresentation often follow fail
ure to keep such rash promises. Some
of them are made in sincerity but
without due elaboration; out others
are made without sincerity and those
who utter them so gibly do not intend
to keep them. Whatever the situa-
tion, it is a serious thing to pledge
ones word; and a dishonest thing to
pledge and break. David wrote Of an
honest man "That sweareth to his
own hurt and changeth not" This
is the kind of a man the world needs.
