SUMMER SLIPS IN AS PEOPLE DREAM

While most of Waterbury was sleeping soundly at 3:3s a. m. (E. STD this morning, no less a vis- itor than summer arrived. Thus began the official season for trips to lake and countryside, to beaches and tiny inland ponds--the season of long, lazy days, of broiling sun and steaming pavements.
 Most people have the idea that summer started yesterday, the Fist, but the almanac says they're wrong. Summer will last official ly till Sept. 23d, when 1t will be time to get the furnace ready for another winter and the blankets ready for trips to football games.
 Summer came to Waterbury this mroning after spring that was, in the main, disappointing. Fol- lowing its old New England cus- tom, the weather has been chang ing daily since March. A few sum- mer-like days have been followed by stretches of cold, rainy weath. er

GOVERNORS VETO
 SURPRISES MANY
Measure Reducing Rate of Interest on Small Loans
 Rate Held as Fair

Hundreds of Waterburians who annually borrow money from the "smaii loan" companies and who were hopeful of the new monthly interest rate of two and one-half per cent going into effect July 1st are doomed to disappointment. AL though the recent session of the legislature passed an act reducing the rate from three to two and one half DOT cent. Governor Wilbur l.. Cross yesterday afternoon vetoed the measure. His action came as Q surprise.
 The interest measure was one of several bills vetoed by the states chief executive. As a result of his action on the interest bill the monthly rate will remain at , per cent.
 Fair Rate
 Tn explaining his veto of the In. terest bill the governor stated that tho bulk of evidence submitted to him indicated that the three per. cent monthly rate is q fair one. Furthermore, he contended that tho legislature passed the bill re- ducing the rate without giving the matter sufficient consideration.
 Tn the legislature the bill re- ducing the rate was reported on unfavorably by the committee on nance. However. both the house and senate rejected the unfavorabIe report and passed the measure es- tablishing the two and one-half per cent rate.
 Pay
 Governor Cross yesterday also vetoed the bill restoring pay cuts to state employees receiving $1,000 a year or less ad also the measure establishing regional secondary schools. The governor also vetoed the bill establishing the state nor- nal schools in New Haven, Willi- mantle and Danbury as teachers colleges with four-year courses. One bill concerning the city of Hartford and another affecting the town of Greenwich were also ve- toed by Governor Cross.
