Naugatuck, Dec S1--Wednesday, January 2, licenses for out-of town vendors to peddle in Naugatuck should be renewed. According to the vending ordinance here all li- censes issued since the ordinance became effective Sept 4, 1894, must be renewed on the first of January. Borough officials will not be work ing tomorrow so Wednesday will be the day for renewal of such licenses.
 The ordinance has not, in the opinion of some, worked out as well as was expected. According to it's provisions, ex-service men are exempted. Since it went into effect 1t seems that the majority of out Of-t0wn vendors here are war vet erans. They have exhibited their discharge certificates to the proper officials here and thereby have be- come exempt from the payment of the license fee, which amounts to $50 annually.
 It is expected stricter enforce ment of the provisions will be made in the coming year. Hawk ers", or those who peddle here for short time without getting a li- cense fee are liable to arrest. AL though there was nothing official said along this line, there seemed to be general feeling that the $50 charge was high for part of the year. In view of the fact that re- newal of licenses was to be only four months later, it was felt by some a lower fee should have been charged until the new year began.
 However with the new year just around the corner, the $50 fee will cover the entire year and could not therefore be said to be exorbitant. Borough Clerk Charles Daly will be in his office Wednesday to re- ceive the fees.
 Merchants of the borough were instrumental in securing the adop- tion of such an ordinance. Out-of- town vendors of the following commodities are required to have 8 license unless exempt:
 Bread; pastry in any form; toys; candy; drinks or beverages, bottled or otherwise; tobacco in any form; frozen desserts; sweet meats; ice cream in any form frankfurters; meats or meat products; groceries; canned goods; teas; coffees; spices; fruits; vegetables; furniture; drugs, pills or patent medicines: perfumes or extracts dry goods; clothing; shoes or other footwear; hardware

Court Session Today

A session of the borough court was held today for the first time in . week, with Deputy Judge Hugh Hearns presiding.
 The case of Patrick Lynch, charged with intoxication, came up and Lynch pleaded guilty. Chief John Adamson who arrested him Sunday afternoon, said Lynch was intoxicated and Judge Hearns or- dered the accused to pay the cost of court, amounting to $13.26. He was put on probation for 30 days.
 Joseph Errico, 25, of High street did not appear in court so his $15 bond was called. He was arrested Saturday night by Officer Ray mond Carlson and charged with intoxicatoin and breach of the peace. The continued cases Of Michael Federonis of Pond styeet, and of August Wolcin both 16 years old, were nolied. They had been continued from September 26 to December 31 on breach of the peace charges.
 There is plenty of EZRA work going on now and there will prob ably be no need for a meeting of the EZRA advisory board this week, Christian Groh. EZRA off, cial, said today. There is some overtime work at present so reports that some of the force have been dropped are false, he said.
