Local opponents of the proposed sales tax to-day pointed to an ad- dress made in Philadelphia during the weekend by Grover Whalen, chairman of the New York City Comptroller's Advisory Committee on Taxes for the Relief of the Un., employed. MT Whalen subjected the sales tax, which is in opera ton in New York City. to a bitter and scathing attack, urging Phila- delphians to stay ava from it as If it were the smallpox"
 As in Connecticut where the sales tax is opposed by unanimously by retail merchants, the proposed Philadelphia tax is being attacked by the Philadelphia Retail Merch- ants Association.
 "The retail sales tax is socially and economically unsound.' MT Whalen said. Tt is a tax on con sumption, It taxes luxuries on the same basis as necessities. It re- suits in buying resistance and so has a materially depressing effect on business. It results in decreased savings and in 8 great many cases tends to destroy savings.
 ''The sales tax violates the fund.- amental principle of taxation. that taxation shall be based on ability to pay. It is class legislation of a vicious sort because the tax falls heaviest on people of small in

In place of the usual military ball, will be held the Mardi Gras carnival ball, with all it's color, glamor and tra- ditiOn.
 The legislature of Louisiana has made an appropriation of 15,OOO for the encampmert. and the Chamber of Com merce of New Orleans is lend- ing its cooperation to make the encampment an affair to be: long remembered by the war buddies.
 There are 2S V. F. w. posts in the Department of Louisi- ana, six of whicha re in New Orleans. Every one of these. posts are bending every nerve to recruit their units to full strength in order to increase their efficiency as hosts to the visiting buddies.

The annual bivouac of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States = 135 en- campment is to be held Sept 15.2O in New Orleans-world famed city of Louisiana, named after the Duke of Orleans, where you find yourself in an- other wOrld-a world of fad- ed elegance and candle light, a world where old customs are still obserevd and where the simple manners of other days still maintain.
 Here World war buddies will rally to the sound of marching bands, great parades in all the panoply and splendor of war, all its glory and none of it's darker, tragic side, with which those who stay at home, while the great guns are booming death and deshtruction on great battlefields, are un- familiar.
 New Orleans
 New Orleans with it's new and old quarters-two cities in one. The American city where all is clean, bright and fresh as new blown flowers, with no signs of age or decay, and the "Vieu Carre", where time and decay have not killed its pris- tine charm and grandeur. Old southern homes are as full of beauty as they were in their prime, with a lingering atlno- sphere of the old world of two hundred years ago, in the Crescent City that sits on the east bank of the Mississippi, only a hundnred and ten miles from the storied Spanish Main the Gulf of Mexico. New Or leans has a population of 45O,- 900.

HARRIS TO AID IN

William M. Harris, head of the Mutual Aid system here stated to- day he would gladly provide the men to destroy the numerous cater pillar nests in the fruit trees in this locality, should he be 50 re- quested by the state department of agriculture. He admitted he had been queried several times on the possibility of having his men take over the job of ridding the cater- pillar nests as an unemployed pro- ject.
 He said he referred his question: CTS to the state department of ag- ricuiturc because such a project would come undner thhat depart- ment's supervision.
 Observers find that the nests in the treess around Waterbury ap- pear to be more prevalent thie year than in other years of late.

bers of the staff in connection witt the campaign:
 The services of the Visiting Nurse are freely called upon and the care she teaches easily ab- sorbed in ordinary acute eases of short duration. But there are some cases in which the family is both reluctant to call the nurse, because of the nature of the diagnosis-and very con- fused and uncertain when it comes to carrying out the care of the patient. There are cases of mental illness which are not suitable for institutional care, for various reasons. Especially this is true when mental symp- toms are, not pronounced, while at the same time, certain phy- sical ones are very distressing. This patient may be just the one who, while needing the help of the Visiting Nurse most, may not receive it, because of misunder- standings on the part of the family.
 Adele B. was an interest ing young woman whose profess sional career was cut short by exactly such a situation. Her family did not completely un- derstand her, nor her condition. This meant that the home envir- onment became very difficult all around. There was little prog ress in this unhappy situation until the Visiting Nurse came upon the scene. While giving physical care to Adele, she tried patient. ly to teach the family such fund amentals of mental hygiene as would help to make clear the patients situation and their own reactions to it.
 First of all, teaching the rou- , tine of physical care--thus sina- plifying it, made the home situ- ation more pleasant. Then ex- blaming the reasons for the treatment as carried out by the physician, lent greater interest and understanding Also, obtain ing assistance from other. social agencies made the economic sit- uation in the home easier all around.
 For a short time, the family decided to transfer the patient to another environment, hoping that Adele's condition would im- prove. This did not prove to be so and the family turned again to the help of the nurse, once more completely discouraged. So the nurse picked up the threads again where she had left off, al- though the patients condition had become more grave in the meantime. The doctor could hold out no hope, but due to the un- falling perseverance of the nurse Adele's physical condition was maintained on a level that the doctor had not expected to be possible. Added to this, the un- Tagging courage, advice and help fitness of the nurse reconciled the family to the situation and made the closing scenes a beau- tiful example of understanding and devotion.

NEW MEMBERS
 MASS INITIATION
Italian BrOtherhod An- n0unces Ceremonies
 for Friday

At a special meeting of the Italian Brotherhood (Fratellanza Italiana) to be held at Liberty Hall next Friday night 30 new members will be initiated.
 A group of the candidates are baseball players who will play on the Fratellanza team which is a unit of the new Italian American Baseball league.
 Attorneys Peter DeCicco, George Crocicchio, Carmine Cipriano, Mrs Joseph Pernatozzi and other off, cials of the Italian Brotherhood will assist.
 Mrs Domenic Barbieri is arrang- ing for the music. All members of the Italian Sisterhood and Jr Brotherhood are invited.
 The membership of the Italian Brotherhod is close to 400 and is expected to reach 500 before long. This number does not include the membership of the Italian Sister hood which exceeds 400.
 The purpose of the society is to promote unity among the Italian American societies and promote the welfare of the Italian Americans in Waterbury.
 The constant growth of this so- ciety proves its popularity and the desire of the Italians to unite in order to obtain better respect for their rights.
 The society was organized in 1916 and has fund of almost $11,000. The combined men and women membership reaches close to 500. Anyone of Italian birth or extraction of good moral character and physical conditions, between 16 to 45 years of age can belong.
 At the last meeting the senior branch donated $100.00 to the Junior branch towards its baseball team and prizes will be awarded to the highest rating pitcher, two highest batting batters, the two averaging the highest put outs and the two bringing the most runs.
 There is a probability that the society may have two teams one for the Italian-American league and one for engagements with ital- ian societies throughout the state.
 The society will encourage all forms of athletic sports among its numbers.

Lonergan Starts Survey to Make Vets Site a Medi=
 cal Center
Especial to The Democrat)

Washington, D. C., May 13.-At the request of Senator Lonergan of Connecticut, survey is being made of needed facilities for the treat ment of medical and surgical cases in the New England area, with a view to making the Veterans Ad- ministration facility at Newington general medical and surgical cen- ter for veterans if funds are made available from the work-relief ap- propriation or other sources.
 Senator Lonergan announced sev- eral weeks ago that the Veterans Administrator had decided to con- .centrate nervous and mental cases in Northampton and New Bedford, Mass, which would mean the re- moval of such patient eventually from the Newington hospital. To compensate for this he urged that Newington be made a general med ical and surgical center for all of New England, and the suggestion has met with favorable response, providing the survey shows a need for such patients.
 The Jean Cargill Nurses post at Newington has also appealed to Senator Lonergan to urge addi- tional facilities for women, but General Hines, Veterans Admins trator, has advised the senator that present facilities are deemed ade- quate. In a report to the senator General Hines said:
 while beds have not been made available for female beneficiaries at Newington, there is ample pro- vision for their disqualification in contract or other civilian hospitals. ... Present instructions also pro- vide for the emergency hospital ization of female beneficiaries with out delay and without the neces- sity of securing prior approval of this office. =. At such time as the facilities at Newington appear inadequate to meet the require ments in that area, careful con- sideration will be given to such ad- ditional beds as are necessary"
