Over 5000 Holders
 Of Irish Bonds Here
Waterburians Expect Return of $6O, -Smithwick
 Voices Gratitude for Generous Support, Confidence

More than $60,0O0 in Irish Re- public bonds will be paid to nearly 5000 bond holders in this city. Henry F. Smithwick said to-day. MT Smithwick, former state pres- ident of the American Association for the Recognition of the Irish Republic, was chosen proxy for more than 10000 bondholders in Connecticut when court action re- suited in 1880.
 The Free State government on April began sending out checks in payment of outstanding amounts on Irish Republic bonds subscribed to by American citizens.
 The money to be paid represents what is still due of the $5,SOO,OOO raised by an aggregate of 309,0O0 subscribers throughout the coun- try and includes interest of 25 per cent on each dollar. Part of the money was paid back in May 193O, from $2,500,000 which still remain ed in banks in this country when the treaty creating the Free State was signed on December 6, 1921.
 18O,OOO Claims Filed
 Although the potential liability is $5,2OO,OOO, only 16O,00O claims have ben filed, according to "The Irish World" More than $372.0OO will be disbursed the first week to 19,OOO applicants. These did not participate in the previous distri- button when the supreme court or New York state appointed receivers for the fund. It Is estimated that 1t will take until the end of the year to finish repayment.

Pennies Pouring In
 For Bolton Memorial
Youngsters of City Eager to Perpetuate Memory of
 Friendly POliceman-List of Donors

The Michael J. aBolton memorial fund continues picking up. it's fair quota of pennies with every mail now coming into the Waterbury Democrat. Boys and girls from all over the city who knew the late popular patrolman by virtue of his many years of service in the city's largest and most popular park, Hamilton. are sending or bringing in two. three, four, five and large number of pennies to swell the fund.
 When completed tke fund will defray the cost of purchasing and erecting bronze memorial tablet in Hamilton Park. the tentative site now under consideration being the stone bridge on the Plank road beyond the right field fence of the first baseball diamond in Hamilton Park. It Is a spot where thousands pass during all months of the year that find sports en- thusiasts and the youth of the city thronging the park.
 Memorial Exercises
 / A really fine memorial tablet Is being planned and what will make it more attractive is the thought that the pennies of the boys and girls of the city are behind 1t. It Is hoped that it can be prepared and be ready to put in place the day of the opening of the paroch- ial school baseball league. Fitting

MACHINISTS HERE
 BACK COLT GROUP
Support of Hartford Strik- CTS Voiced = Several
 Speak at Meeting

Support of the Colt Co. strikers in Hartford was voiced at Q meet ing sponsored by the Roosevelt lodge of Machinists at Liberty hall last night. It was voted to hold q tag day, the proceeds to be used for the strikers. and efforts were begun this morning to secure of flcial permission for the sale of tags.
 Principal speaker at last nights meeting was Francis Fenton of Washington, D. C., New England representative of the American Federation of Labor. He described the outlook for success on the part of the 1900 strikers at Hartford.
 Funds for the Colts strikers are being raised today through tag sales .n Middletown, Hartford and New Haven. Several of the strik- CTS were among the speakers at last nights meeting.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-04-06

The final date. for filing of claims was August 21, 1884, and 1t is not known whether an extension of time will be granted to persons un- aware of the plan.
 Court Ruling
 The money from which the 1880 repayment was made was the sub ject of litigation in the New York supreme court. Justice Curtis A.. Peters ruling that an Irish Repub- lie had never existed and that the money was to go back to subscrib- CTS. As result there was a repay ment by the receivers of 5S cents on & dollar.
 The difference, plus the regular 25 cents interest allowed the other claimants will be paid back to 1880 claimants.
 Smithwick Grateful
 MT Smithwick, who was an out standing figure in the promotion of the bond sales. to-day expressed his thanks not only to Waterbur- ians, but to Irish bondholders throughout the state for their con- fidence in DeValera and the Irish Republic government, and the hope that they will continue to en- certain such sentiments.

|BOWEY'S VICTORY. FEATURES TOURNEY
High Score of Season Was Chalked Up in Win Over
 Phelan'S Team
WASHINGTON HILL

The St. Francis Holy Name forty-five tourney Is developing into a three cornered race now. A few weeks ago Tommy Horan and his boys were out in front by over twenty games and seemed headed for first place honors again but after dropping two matches last week their lead has been cut down to three games, Last night the Horanmen won their match but won only 33 games which failed to increase their lead. Their victims last nigh were Dennihan's Night Owls.
 Joe Phelan who is leading his team to great comeback last night added forty games to his credit in the standing and are now in second place. Joe's team shell lacked Cusick's team 40. to 23. It IS believed that Cusick will be fired as leader of the team and reports were current in the hall last night that Tom Corbett would take over the outfit for the remainder of the tourney
 New High Score
 John Bowey's team ran up one of the largest scores ever made in the tourney when they handed Johnny Phelan's outfit a 43-2O drubbing. It loks as though Johnny and his men were a little upset over the defeat they were handed Thursday night from the boys from Brooklyn and Johnny says that his boys will never again play two nights in succession. Its be- ginning to look as though it doesn't pay to play on successive nights.
 The Washington Hills were handed another trouncing last night and dropped a 41-22 verdict. As 8 result of the facing last night the Hills dropped to sixth place in the standing.
 Other results last night were: O'Donnell 33, Mulcunry 27, Cough lin 33, Fitzmaurice 30, F. Shana- nahan 32, O'Niell 31 and the Joyce J. Shannahan match was not played last night but both teams will meet probably next week and playoff the match. The tourney Will resume play Monday night.
 Show Presented
 More than 500 attended the re- peat performance of the DeMolay minstrel and revue which was pre- sented by tfie Improvement Society of the South Federated church last night at Washington Park Con- munity House.

It appears as if the news of the day has made Waterbur- ians, gasoline conscious. The little feud which presently agitates members of the local lodge of Elks and the disturb ed feelings of residents of Cooke street give evidence of not only resentment to changes that "Progress"or ad- vancing business lines de- mand, but also reflect a reluctance on the part of many at the passing of fa- miliar landmarks.
 The Elks' controversy as to whether or not the lodge should sanction the erection of a gasoline station adjoin- ing the club house is really only a temporary issue on how additional funds should be realized. The B. P. o. E. branch has no intentions of erecting 8 permanent station on it's attractive grounds. As is generally understood, the land became the Elks prop erty as a gift from Truman S. Lewis in memory of his first wife. It was originally intend- ed that any revenue which might be derived should be placed in the charity fund. And the Elks will surely re- spect that sacred obligation.
 The raging of the old St. Margaret's school on the cor ner of Grove and Cooke streets also stirs memories of yeserday. It has also stirred the residents of that neighbor- hood for it presages another gasoline station, unless the zoning law is upheld.
 Hundreds of passers-by on Willow street have be en watching lately the demolition of spa acious duplex house on the northeast corner of the in- tersection of Grove street. Is the former residence of Col onel Arthur M. Dickinson of the old Second Regiment passing to be replaced by a gasoline station?
 The mention of Colonel Dickinson's name brings back to the minds eye picture of that tall, splendidly-propor- toned gentleman, who was a gallant figure in the days of the late 90's. He was captain in 1899 on the staff of Col onel John B. Doherty. And the latter's name recalls that of Colonel Lucien Burpee, George B. .Blakeslee, Dr. Ben- edict and a host of others. In- cidentally Colonel Doherty, former postmaster of Water- bury and formerly of U. s. marshars office of Connecticut is seriously i'll in New Haven.
 What news of yesterday an energetic chronicler of pass ing time might unearth in 8 study of the rapid changes that gasoline stations are causing.

The teaching profession has also been effected by this eco homie condition and there are many members among us who have receive positions through the EEP and found it's source of revenue gratify- ing.
 MT. Harris, do you question the mental ability of hese four thousand people who have taken these courses and who wish to have these par ticular courses continued?
 These four thousand stu dents include many profess sional people.
 Surely, MT. Harris, you are not classifying these four thousand students as a group of imbeciles?

Members to Carify Rules Governing Issuance of State Teachers Certificates Associations Ask Local
 Help-Substitutes Status More or Less MuddIed

Isociation is understood to be ore of the pioneers in the study of possibilities involved in the an- noupcement that there will be a change in certifcation regulations effective fin September, 1897.
 Committee, Formed
 Headed by Pierre Pronovost of the .Wilby faculty, the committee appointed by > the Waterbury Teachers association includes Miss Anna E, NJ. Dwyer, Miss Mary Kennedy, Miss Lura stanton and Clarence Tappin. The State Teach CTS association, under the leader ship of. it's secretary, F. H. Har- rington, is also interested in the new regulations proposed by the state board.
 As far as can be learned, &C., cording to Mir Pronovost, the new plans for certification of teachers are in tentative stage. While press releases from the state board continue to urge teachers to take advantage of the opportuni- ties provided for further study at normal and teachers schools, lead- ing to the belief that requirements are to be made stricter, there has been no definite announcement.
 FOrewarncd
 With the idea in mind, however, that being "forewarned Is fore armed" teachers are gathering all available data. Several confer- ences between the state board of education and representatives of the teachers association.
 It is believed that pressure from the organization is wholly responsible for the decision of the state board, relayed to teachers this week which nulified the pro- posal that teachers now having the status of substitutes be re- quired to take further courses in order to be eligible for the new certificates. This announcement is the newest development in a situation which still remains, ac- cording to local committee mem bers, more or less muddled.

RYAN ORGANIZES
 NEW ASSOCIATION
Chosen Secretary, Legis- lative Agent of State
 Organization

Less than 24 hours after the Connecticut Tavern Owners asso- ciation had supported the action of its executive committee in dis missing Edward J. Ryan of Thom- aston as executive secretary and lobbyist, Ryan effected the organ ization of a new tavern owners association at the Hotel Bond in of the executive board of the new ly formed State Tavern Keepers association atthe Hotel Bond in Hartford yesterday afternoon, Ry- an was elected paid secretary and legislative representative of the organization.
 Immediately after organization the new liquor mems group went on record as declaring "unconsti- tutional" the proposal to bar wom- en from taverns. The association also recorded itself in favor of Sunday closing, daily hours of from p. m. to D. m. and min imum age limit of 21.
 Local tavern men expressed wonder today at the speed with which Ryan, who is also known as F. Jackson Ryan, had formed his new organization. The Connecticut Tavern Owners association, which Hyan helped form as rival to the Retail Beer, Wine and Liquor Merchants association, dismissed the Thomaston man after vote of its executive board several weeks ago, but the committees action was not confirmed by the general or ganization until Thursday after noon at New Haven.
 Ryan's newest group will find no local support, for his previous membership campaigns here have resulted in complete failure.

It might be explained that MT. Harris criticism of the manner Tn which the federal government was distributing relief funds was, not directed particularly against the educational projects. Such devcl- opments, he said, were merely ln- cidental examples of the wronE direction taken by federal authori- ties in the outlay of EZRA funds.
 Favored Public Works
 It is MT. Harris contention that the government should devote the greater portion of disbursements to the public works plans which include the development of power projects and the like. He also is an advocate of payment of the sol diers' bonus, his stand on thls question, incidentally, having been warmly applauded by local veter- ans.
 The letter follows:
 April 5, 1895. Mir. William M. Harris, Relief Administrator,
 Waterbury, Connecticut.
 My Dear MT. Harris:-
 In reply to the article which you presented to the Water- bury Democrat and which ap- peared in the Waterbury Democrat on Thursday, April 4, 1885 concerning the relief for the educational reliefs in the city of Waterbury we, the Waterbury Substitute Teach CTS association, wish to pres ent our views.
 Mir. Harris, we greatly ap- preciate criticism provided these criticisms are construc- tive rather than destructive. The modern moves in ednca- tional curricula are tending towards liberalized. soclalized courses of study. If you wish our association to quote edu- catfonal authorities to boar out this fact we will gladly do so at your convenience.
 Mir Harris, times and circum- stances determine the scope
