WATCH NEXT MOVE |OF CALVIN'S FOES
Fire Chiefs Opponents May Answer Warden's
 Charges Shortly

Naugatuck, June s.--Just what will be the next move of the group opposing Milton Calvin as Ire chief is what local residents are wondering, now that the perma- nent fire department bill, passed Tuesday in Hartford by the state legislature, provides the fire chief will receive a salary of not less than $2,000.
 It had been thought that oppo- nents of MT. Calvin on the board of warden and burgesses could set his salary and reports had 1t he would be given a very low sum. However, this provision takes away from the board the power to name the salary of the chief. something they have held for years. The boama, however, can name salaries of dlher paid members of the de- partment.
 Burgess Tracy Noble. republican, claims Mir. Calvin can collect, if ne vents to, the $1,S70 yearly salary for chief engineer and paid driver in addition to s2,000 as fire chief. Heretofore there had been no pay provided for the fire chief office. A reply to charges of Warden Sheridan is expected soon from op- ponents of the fire chief.

NEW DEAL
 IN WASHINGTON
NRA's Fate Problematie ... New Dealers at Wits End to Decide Which Way to Turn Price Cutting and Wages Bone of Contention.
By RODNEY BUTCHER
(DelnOCrnf Washington
 Corrcspondent)


 washington, June S--There are miserable days here for prophets. But it seems no great risk to make at least one prediction:
 We're going to find out whether MIRA was g boon or a curse. In case it wasn't much of either. we'll find that out, too.
 There hasn't been any real agree ment about it. In fact, the admin istration-except for the loyal and zeaIous IMPACTS themselveshad been going cold on NRA for months, to the point of doubling whether 1t was more help or hin-' drance in the recovery effort.
 Even Roosevelt, it may be told. at one point became distinctly lukewarm about the experiment. That was why senate leaders were able to put through the devitalizing Clark amendment extending NRA nine months and killing 1t as eff fectively as the supreme court could ever kill 1t.
 Only when the political impli- cations of allowing such an impor- tant New Deal segment to die in- gloriousfy on the eve of a presi- dential campaign became plain to Roosevelt did he turn on the heat for extension until after the next election.

Jittery Over Future

Now MIRA, at least as 1t was. IS dead. It's enemies are happy, but already there's a wave of jitters ever the possible effects of the ob- liberation of the codes.
 What happens when industry Is left to itself and "chiselers" are allowed at large?
 Regardless of administration stopgags and future plans. every one will watch for proof or dis proof of General Johnson's asser- tion that the end of MIRA would mean loss of 3,000,000 jobs and s3,OO0 1000, ,O00 in wages.
 Or. were certain economists right when they insisted that recovery was being retarded, unemployment continued, and industrial activity hampered by code restrictions?
 You recall, of course, that there has been constant debate between NRA's enemies and friends as to whether its operation was respon- sible for business improvement in the last two years or whether the improvement. was due to natural forces which might have operated even more effectively without NRA.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-06-08
Try to Figure This One

What will be the other effects of the anticipated widespread price-cutting? One quite large school of thought insists that 1t will stimulate consumer demand by expanding purchasing power and thus start more wheels turning and create more employment.
 But one also seems to nave heard much from high places 10 the effect that higher price levels were essential to prosperity ana that prices still weren't high enough. And everybody knows that prices boosted and maintained un- der the codes were, in effect. per- mitted as a trade for minimum wage and hour standards in the benefited industries. What about wages?
 If wages are cut; what happens to that purchasing power which everyone agrees is so necessary and which, according to the first yer sion, will be increased by lower prices.
 It certainly does tend to get fellow all mixed up!

So this June he's marking time, With nonchalance he'll take his "dip"; Now Bill, just word, old boy, old pal, Take your time and mind, don't trip!
