The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-11-06


 have to work today. They will make up the time during the rest of the week, probably next Satur- day.
 The usual EZRA projects were underway with no EZRA employe permitted to indulge in political activity for either party. The main reason for the idleness of some EZRA men was that the bor- ough courtroom, the town clerk $ office and the EZRA office in the town hall were being used either for voting or as party headquar- ters. The independent citizens group occupied the assessors part of the town clerks office.
 The democratic candidates were the late Joseph Jackson and Hugh Burns.
