In one of the most unique broadcasts ever arranged in New England, there will step to the microphone in WATR's studios to- morrow afternoon a man who will testify to his brothers credibility and to his dependability. The man will be Jacob Carlstrom, local fac- tory employe, whose younger brother, Elvert, took the stand earlier this week in Remington, N. J., as a surprise defense witt ness for Bruno Richard Haupt- mann. the alleged kidnaper of the Lindbergh baby.
 Jacob Carlstrom will go on the air to defend his younger brother. the brother who lived in this city until last April, leaving only to resume employment on Long Island. Carlstrom's defence of his brother, Elvert, will be heard over WATR during the Hauptmann trial resume program, which Is conducted each Sunday from 2:45 to 3 o'clock by Attorney John Cas- sidy, well-known local lawyer.
 The program should prove in- tensely interesting to local listner- CTS, for C'arlstrom's testimony was one of the sensations of the mur- der trial. coming as 1t did with complete unexpectedness. It was Carlstrom who brought Water- bury's name into the proceedings at Bennington, as he battled ver- bally against whitening cross- examination by Attorney General David Wilentz.

BALL COMMITTEE
 CONTINUES WORK
Sale of Tickets for. Sea- sons Social Event
 Progressing

The cold weather of the past week may have bothered some peo- pie, but not the police department and particularly not the members of the committee in charge of tho Policemen's Ball. Despite sub zero peratures and @ general tendency on the part of people to grab Q seat near q radiator and stay there, Captain Dan Carson and his fellow committeeman con- tinued their work of selling tickets and completing arrangements for the first service ball here in several years.
 Less than two weeks remain be- fore the gala event, which in past years has been the highlight of the Waterbury winter social season, Is here once more to bring enjoyment to hundreds and hundreds of local people. The ball will be held Fri day night, the 18th, on the spd- cious floor of the state armory csl Field street. ..
 Persons not having secured their tickets yet are urged to get in touch with any member of the po- lice department, for the commit tee expects next week to plan on the approximate crowd which will attend. Tickets of admission can be procured from any uniformed member of the police department.
 The bill this year will feature the augmented orchestra of Tim mic Grove, one of Connecticut's best known leaders. The orches- tra will be increased to 20 pieces for the Policemen's Ball, and will prepare special program of music for the event.
 This years Policemen'sI Ball will be the first one held in this city by either police or fire department in several years. Plans for the ball have been underway now since early December.

MANY INQUIRIES
 ON TAX REPORTS
Local Office Gives InfOr- nation on Important
 Matter

Income tax returns filed at the local district office on Grand street have been unusually small in number, Charles B. Byrne. dep uty collector for this district said today. Returns must be filed be- bore March Is.
 Mr Byrne said that scores of perJons have called at the office for information on the new forms. Tho publicity given the new regu- lations during the past few weeks has in many cases been inaccurate and for this reason the federal government has released bulletins explaining the rulings.
 Following is the article on forms for making returns:
 Forms for filing returns of in- come for 1894 have been sent to persons who filed returns last year. Failure to receive a form, however, does not relieve tax payer of his obligation to file his return and pay the tax on time, on or before March IS if the re- turn is made on the calendar year basis, as the case with most in- dividuals.
 Forms may be optalned upon request, written or personal, from the offices of collectors of Internal revenue and deputy collectors. Per sons whose net income for 1884 was derived chiefly from salary or wages and was not in excess of $5,00O should make their returns on form 1040A, single sheet. Persons whose net income was in excess of $5.O00, or, regardless of amount, was derived from a bus mess, profession, rents or sale of property, are required to use a larger form, 1040. Failure to use the proper form presents difficult ties to both the taxpayer and the Bureau of Internal Revenue. Therefore, 1t Is. emphasized that a taxpayer engaged in a business or profession from which he derived a net income of less than $5.000 is required to use the larger form.
 The return must be filed with the collector of internal revenue for the district in which the tax payer has his legal residence or principal place of business on or before midnight of March 16. 1885.

ORPHAN CHILDREN
 BILL INTRODUCED
New Measure Would Save City Expense of Care in
 County Institutions

Considerable saving to the city In money expended for the care of orphan children will result from a
 bill now pending before the leg
 islature. Charges that the city of New Haven made against Water- bury for children boarded "out" by the county would be eliminated un- der the, provisions of the proposed act. Passage of the bill will bene" fit every city and town in the county with the exception of the city of New Haven. The latter municipality will lose much in.
 come. Senator John Lynch of West Haven introduced the measure. At the present time there are
 several hundred children under the care of the county. Most of them are cared for in the county home but great number are
 boarded Tout" in two institutions in New Haven. These institutions
 are semi-private ones but are sip- ported partly by the city of New Haven.
 Therefore, whenever children who are wards of the county are placed in the two New Haven insti- tutions the city of New Haven as- certains the towns from which the children have come and then bills those cities or towns for the chill dren's upkeep.
 Under the provisions of the new bill, no such charges ou l q be made against the cities or towns. New Haven, yearly, has reaped a fair amount of income from this practice at the expense of the other communities of the county. It is understood that it is the smaller towns of the county that are protesting the loudest against this practice, hence the introduce ton of the bill in the senate this week. A date for hearing will be eet later.

 Banned Building
 After the oil business was start ed, oil saturated the ground ad- joining the tanks and the oil seeped through the ground to the build ings of the meat packing company. The oil came through the floors and walls of the cellar where the pickled meats were and the health oficer for the city, Dr E. J. God frey. refused to let the meat pack ing company use the building.
 The buildings became unusablc and the plaintiff lost volume of business, says the complaint.
 The suit says the walls and floors of the building have to betorn out and a new water proof wall con- structed. The plaintiff also asks an injunction restraining the oil company from using the property.

 Anniversary Celebration of Movement

Plans for the mobilization of 1900 Boy Scouts, leaders and scoutmasters of the Waterbury council area next Friday night when the initial program of the 25th anniversary celebration of the Scout movement in this coun- try is held throughout the United States, will be completed at a troop meeting early next week.
 Each troop of the local district will meet either in the usual gath ering place or in the homes of scoutmasters and leaders, where they will listen to the special radio message bdoadcast by President Roosevelt directly from the White House. Troops l, 2, and 3 of Wa tertown have already announced the completion of arrangements for the mobilization. The Water- town scouts will hold their annual parents and scouts banquet in con- nection with the mobilization. The program will begin at 2 o'clock at the Congregational church rooms in Watertown.

 Church Services
 Sunday, February 10, will be ob- served nationally as Boy Scout Sunday. Each troop in the district will attend their own church in 0 body. Appropriate services will be held by pastors of the various churches and sermons will relate either directly to the Boy Scout movement or to some phase of youth organization.

Middletown Senator Introduces Bill Which Many
 Medical Professors Endorse

Physical examination of all per- sons seeking marriage licenses will be necessary providing bill intro. duced this week in the legislature goes through. Senator Harvey L. Thompson of Middletown is the sponsor of the proposed act. Ac- cording to reports the measure has the backing of a number of the number of the members of the medical profession.
 The purpose of the bill is clear. It Is for the purpose of preventing the marriage of persons who are suffering rrof social diseases. Ac- cording to the act, both parties wishing to be married must first go to a doctor and get certificate of health. This certificate must be filed with the town clerk before the license Is issued. The town clerk would have the right to refuse Q license if one or both parties ap- plying for the marriage license were unable to obtain clean bill of health from the doctor.
 This measure, therefore, gives the town clerks additional power in the issuance of marriage certi- ficates. A measure along this line was introduced two years ago. II did not pass, however. However. it is reported that Senator Thomp- sons bill has much more backing than did the one offered In the 1893 session. |.
 Hearing on the Thompson, bill will not take place before the committee on public health and safety, as it is believed would be the natural course for the measure to follow, but before the commit. tee on judiciary of which Repre- sentative John D. Thoms of this city is member.
 Opposition will be offered from ome sources on the grounds that the law would be placing an extra duty and expenses on the should CTS of the parties wishing to be ma rried
