Allen To Campaign
 For Relief Pledges
Heads Committee Aiding Mutual Aid to Operate
 to Be Resumed April

at the Citizens and Manufacturers bank, it was decided to resume collections to the fund on April 1st' and to immediately launch a drive for new pledges so as to carry on the work after the pres ent pledges expire on May 1st.
 As chairman of the pledge drives in the past, Mr., Allen has turned in a good account of himself, hence his unanimous selection by the officers of the Mutual Aid for the post once more. The collec- tinos for the Mutual Aid were sus- pended temporarily month ago.
 Now, though, with the CWA lay ing off men weekly the need for the Mutual Aid is once more clear ]y evident. The balance in the Mu- tual Aid treasury has been de- creasing weekly in the absence of the regular income. On April 1st, with the collections resumed, the balance is expected to start in- creasing once more.
 The new pledges to be solicited will be on the same basis as in the post, one percent from those who receive $50 or less, weekly; one and one-half percent from those receiving $50 to $1O0, weekly; and thre per cent from all receiving more than $100, weekly.
 The meeting of the officers of noon was called by President John A. Coe. Mayor Frank Hayes, chairman of the board of directors presided. The session was brief. The resumption of the collections and the launching of the drive for new pledges was recommended week ago yesterday at a meeting of the executive committee, or which William M. Harris is chair man.

ETHEL ZICLATZKI
 SPELLING CHAMP
Wins Overlook - Cottage Park Bee With Joseph
 BrenneiS

An old fashioned spelling bee was conducted last night by the members of the Overlook Cottage Park Community club at Colum bia school. The prize winners were Miss Ethel Ziglatzki and Joseph Brenneis. Rev Thomas l.. Sinclair acted as judge. A card party will be held at the next meeting with Mrs Fredc rick Van Valkenburg in charge. The members voted at a short business session to defer ac- ton on the matter of changing the names of Lexington avenue and Concord avenue. Residents of the short end of Lexington avenue voiced opposition to the proposal to name he section Lexington place. Some favored making the short stretch continuation of Concord street. A committee was named to appear before the alder men to ask them to pass a vote joining the two sections of Farm ington avenue and also to ask for sidewalks on both sides of Rose land avenue

county should bring about spirit of reciprocity.
 The term of High Sheriff Geddes will expire on June list, 1885, but the candidates must run for elec- tion this November. An effort is now being made to have the con- vention held fn this city, it hsa been learned, because fo the fact that it was. held in West Haven the last time.
 Eight years ago the, preceding convention was held in Waterbury at Elks' hall at which Miles Con- molly was nominated. He was de- feated by High Sheriff Geddes. The latter has not yet stated definitely that he will seek renomination and reelection but the general feeling is, that he will be in the race once more.
 During the past few weeks Con- stable O'Leary has been busy wis., iting several town chairmen , throughout the county. However, nothing definite will be known on the set-up of the convention until about early fall when the slates of delegates in the respective towns and cities are decided upon.

Waterbury democratic chieftains are expected to stand one-hundrcd per cent. behind the candidacy Of Constable James E. O'Leary of this city for the nomination for high sheriff of New Haven county when the selection is made late this summer. Opinions gathered here during the past few days among men high in the Brass City organ ization all pointed to concerted drive to have Waterbury given the honor this year. Four years ago the local delegation, at the con- vention in West Haven, gave way to New Haven candidate who was subsequently defeated by the present g. o. D. incumbent, High Sheriff James w. Geddes.
 "Waterbury is entitled to the high sheriff's nomination this year on the democratic ticket" stated one of the party heads. It was added that Constable OLeary's ac- tion four year ago in withdrawing from the race in the interest of harmony and in favor of the canA didate from the other end of the

LOAN REQUESTS
To PWA DROP

Applicants for PWA funds, &C
cording to an announcement
from that agency today, still
want grants, but instead Of ask
ing loans as well from the PWA,
they are showing an increasing
tendency to raise money locally.
Under PwA regulations, non.
Federal projects can get 80 per
cent grants Of the cost Of labor
and materials. and are expected
to put up acceptable security for
loans at 4 per cent fol, the rest.
PWA supplied the loan funds
presumably because they could
not be obtained elsewhere. Now,
apparently, recovery has pro-
gressed to the point where loans
are no longer necessary from
PWA because applicants can sell
local bonds on regular markets.
Because local funds are thus
becoming available, PWA has
been able to use $22 1850, 100 origi-
na1ly intended for loans in pro.
viding further grant allotments
for work that otherwise could not
have been done.
Administrator Harold L. IckeS
said:
"This shift from loans plus
grants to grants only has be-
come SO pronounced that it
looms as an important factor
In the PWA program.
ut is a most encouraging de-
velOpment in recovery and
demonstrates the successful &C
cOmpliShment of the public
works theory Of 'primi1g' as con-
ceived by the Administration Is
in actual execution today"
