II 1DsKIN will be one
N of the leading furs
this year. The gray coat
shown left is typical of
the swagger styles that
will be made of gray, blue
fox-brown, or beige kid
skin. This coat has vivid
blue wool crepe lining,
both for the coat and soft
scarf, and gray leather
straps that hold the full
sleeves into a cuff.
Because the first furs
are not SO high-priced,
many of us can afford a
fine coat like the black
broadtail shown in the
center. It has a huge
cape of luxurious silver
fox that is detachable so
that you may also wear
it on your evening wrap.
Without the fox scarf,
you have a. smart tailored
broadtail coat.
One of the most interest
ing coats we've seen is
shown on the right. It is
of mink paws, and has the
new dropped shoulder
line, with full sleeves.
Elastic holds the sleeves
into a tight cuff and puff.
Plaid homespun woolen
makes the lining for the
coat and the scarf. With
out the leather belt, the
coat has the fashionable
swagger line. Worn

book valuation. In one case, we understand, this tax runs about $400.00 per store, average. The large proportion of these taxes are paid locally, in addition to which, they, of course, must maintain their rentals and in a great many cases the individual store employs our local people, with the possible exception of manager who may come from some other locality, but very often these -are also To- cal men.
 In addition, they purchase their merchandise and supplies locally to very large extent and also maintain banking accounts, these either being local or divisional. Tn addition to this, we find that in almost every case chain store or ganizations are exceedingly prompt in the payment of their bills.
 At heavy expense to ourselves, we have endeavored to obtain ad- equate distribution of our mer- chandise through individual and independent outlets and are doing 50 to some extent, but as stated before, approximately 25 per cent of this distribution is obtained through chain stores at very low cost"

FIGHTS CHAIN STORE TAX
LONG CONFERENCE
 ON CITY FINANCES
Committee of NOn-Parti- san Citizens Union Con.
 fered With Mayor
ON PUBLIC QUESTIONS

A two hour discussion concern ing the affairs of the city was held between Mayor Frank Hayes and the executive committee of the Waterbury Non-Partison Citizens Union yesterday afternoon at the City Hall. The Union offered sug- gestions that the expenses of the city be reduced 25 per cent while Mayor Hayes pointed out the econ- omies his administration has real- ized during his tenure in office.
 Attorney U. G. Church, president of the Union and chairman of the executive committee explained that the Union and chairman of the executive committee explained that the Unions suggestion for a 25 per cent reduction in city expenditures was in Keeping with President Roosevelts recommendations in regard to Federal expenditure re- auctions.
 The Union thought the city ex- penses have increased by too great a ratio since 1914. Mayor Hayes informed the Union he will supply it with a compilation of figures showing receipts and ex- penditures since 1914 so that the Union may take an analysis of them.
 Mayor Hayes pointed out, few of the salient economy moves he has made in reducing expenditures, notably, in refraining to make any appointments to fill vacancies in the fire or police departments through deaths, resignations or re- tirements; failure to appoint sal- ary drawing assessor to fill the vacancy in that office caused by the death of the late Thomas K. Hallinan and in cutting down the city's lighting bill through new con- tracts and eliminations of certain services. Mayor Hayes told the executive committee that he had started his retrenchment program three years ago, before any other city in the state and that they are now following his example. He cited the two ten per cent cuts in salaries for all city officials. He also pointed out the reductions made in the city's bonded and floating debt and to it's better fi- nancial standing as compared 10 other cities in the present times. As an example, he pointed to the ease with which the city gets per- mission in floating bonds and the better interest rates. Also, he called attention to the friendly at- titude of the general assembly, it's finance committee and Tax Com- missioner William H. Blodgett as compared with other cities.
 The mayor explained that the city of Waterbury is asking no re- lief from the state and is asking for far less bonds than other cities of the state. While Bridgeport, New Haven and Hartford are asking for several million dollars in bonds for relief work, for funding tempor- ary debts and for meeting bonds that mature, the Mayor pointed out that Waterbury is asking only for authorization for bonds to meet half the bonds maturing this year, $50O,0O0 and retiring the bal .ance each year out of current taxes. ta r bi
 < The executive, committee was much impressed with the report of Mayor Hayes. Chairman Church stated after the meeting that Mayor Hayes was quite friendly and was perfectly willing to go in- to any phase of city affairs that the committee asked.

State Capitol, Hartford, Conn, March 2S-(Special to the Demo crat)-R. s. Booth, vice-president of the Beardsley and Wolcott Man. ufacturing Company in a statement to Senator Joseph A. Hackett of Waterbury stated that bill No 19S, which came up for hearing this afternoon before the judiciary com niittee of the legislature, is dis criminatory. The bill affects chain stores and under section imposes an annual license fec of $10 per store up to five stores and where the stores operated total 50 or more the fee is set at $500 per store. Manufacturers, chain stores and so forth opposed the bill at this afternoons hearing.
 The statement to Senator Hack cit was as follows:
 '.rhe proposed measure is of considerable interest to us as we feel 1t would have a material effect upon our business. We have made an analysis of the electric appli- ance division of our business, which includes also one or two spe- cia1ties, and have found that our sales to chain store and mail order house organizations operating in various parts of the country repre- sent approximately 25 per cent of our total sales through this divi- sion. Therefore, 1t will readily be seen that any discriminatory tax ing of chain stores out of business would affect us seriously and would make it impossible for us to pro- vide gainful employment to as many people as we would other wise employ. If we could not sell to chain stores, 1t would seriously impair our business unless the vol ume could be supplanted on an equal basis through individual job bers and retailers.
 Tt has been our experience that chain stores maintain centralized buying offices, employing special ists in the selection and purchase of merchandise which serves de- finite purpose to the consumer. The cost of selling to these concerns is not excessive and their method of obtaining and presenting this mer- chandise to the buying public seems to be not only rapid but are maintained on business like basis. merchandise being displayed. neatly and subject to inspection by the purchaser and made available at the lowest possible distribution cost.
 We understand that in Connec- ticut there are some 1700 stores who are paying federal, state and municipal taxes on a basis of their
