 The warden said he thought 1t might need 800 men to work on the road. The matter was referred to the street committee and the Dor. ough engineer who were given power to act on deciding which road to improve.
 When MT. Nygren said that gpen- cer street is not in good condition, the warden explained that he and the borough engineer inspected 1t yesterday and feel 1t advisable to improve the travelled part of it, but not to widen 1t or install curbs and gutters as had been suggested some time ago.

 If the Supreme Court had not declared unconstitutional some acts, a dictatorship would have resulted, she claimed. She sharply criticized much New Deal legislation and said the administration is making American manufacturers o m pc e with the cheap labor of Japan and Europe.
 The youth of America is against the New Deal, she stated. She lauded Governor Ali Landon, 6. o. D. nominee, and denied he damaged the school system in Kansas.

Naugatuck, Sept. 15.-The diff ference between a lease and a rent was discussed thoroughly at the meeting last night. The matter came up when Warden John J.

 After the office was rented tc the Western Union company, the lease turned up, MT. Parkinson said in referring to the action three years ago.

BRIEF SKIRMISH
 STUDS MEETING
Nygren Says Fire COntrO- versy Isn't Pleasant
 Matter to Discuss
lSnecial to The Democratl

Naugatuck, Sept. IA - Another brief skirmish in the fire department situation was fought at the meeting of the board of warden and bur- gesses, but just what 1t resulted ir could not definitely be said.
 Burgess Joseph Nygren, first ward republican, brought up the matter by saying, We are all aware of the fire house controversy. It has reached 8 stage where 1t isn't a very pleasant matter to discuss. haven't anything to report, but would like to have the fire commit tee be empowered to make a thor ough investigation of current ru- mors, to report its finding in writing to the board and to have the head of the department and the heads of the volunteers or persons desig- mated by them attend the meeting
 "It is not a pleasant thing" he reiterated, but I don't think we can afford to continue the condition I for one, deplore 1t. The commit tee should go into 1t thoroughly with MT. Calvin and whatever vol unteers are designated"
 Although 1t was not mentioned specifically there is no doubt he was referring to the removal by the fire chief of a bench in front of the house, on alleged complaints of in sulting language being used by the bench's occupants.
 Fellows -Nygren Tilt
 MT. Nygren, and Burgesses George Fellows and Joseph Dinneny arc members of the fire committee oi the board with MT. Fellows chair man.
 MT. Fellows asked rather coldly What seems to be the troublep"
 Tt started with petty things" MT Nygren replied.
 Haven't we been meeting witt the chief?" asked MT. Fellows.
 Not successfully, apparently, Mir. Nygren retorted. "If 1t wer these things wouldn't have oc cured"
 MT. Fellows then asked MT. Ny gren why he did not attend the las meeting of the committee when h, had said the night before he would The republican burgess reported h. was busy late that night and asked why they did not meet last week pointing out the schedule called fo, @ meeting each two weeks. Wher MT. Fellows told him that at thu previous session they had agreed no to meet until after Labor day, MT Nygren apologized.
 Fellows then moved the volun' teers be invited to attend the inves' tigation, but just what investiga' ton or when 1t will be held wal not stated. The motion to have tn, fire committee meet passed with nt opposition.
 MT. Raytkwich said he was under the impression from volunteers they feel they don't get fair hearings or grievances.
 Volunteers Can Attend
 Volunteers had a right to attenC fire committee meetings if they has any grievances, MT. Fellows de- clared. MT. Dinneny said he nevel had any request from the volun' teers for a hearing.
 Warden Sheridan then said tha the fire department, police, welfare and other departments each hay, one man to supervise "whateve, goes on and we don't want 8 dozen It is e good thing for the fire com, mittee to meet with the officers. am Q member of the volunteers bu I don't listen to all the rumors hear"

 The warden reported MT. Moody has asked that they be set a foot from the curb, stating that some now hang over curbs and autos often damage them. MT. Sheridan said he didn't know whether the company intends to move all hy- drants here.
 Burgess Joseph Raytkwicli point ed out 1t might cause inconvenience to set hard and fast rule as to the distance of the hydrant from the curb because all curbs are not on eqNNk distance from the sidewalk. T4e street committee will confer with Fred Ashmore and MT. Chis- well of Tolles Square in regard to acceptance of that street by the town and installation of a sanitary sewer there. Water now backs up in that section. It was believed these two men planned petition some time ago for acceptance of the street.
 May Accent Pathway
 The street committee and the borough engineer will check advis- ability of the town accepting the pathway leading from Pond street to Cliff street, 1t was decided last night. Mrs. Ernest Buckmilier who owns most of this land, offers 1t to the town. The previous owner had wanted c certain price for 1t which the town was not willing to pay. The Mccarthy family there is will ing to cooperate, the board was told.
 Burgess Raytkwich pointed out 1t would do away with the dead end of South View street. The board ape proved Q six months deferment on an assessment of Mrs. Mary Deegan of Pleasant avenue for Q sanitary sewer there. Mrs. Deegan got Q sep- tic tank just before the board voted to have the sewer installed and has paid for 1t, the board was told.
 Burgess Nygren said the bridge on Brook street is not in good shape The warden agreed 1t would be ad- visable to have another layer oi three inch boards placed on 1t but said 1t $ safe now. Burgess Brophy said that recently the oil truck with Q full load went over 1t and the bor. ough engineer told the board that 1t is perfectly safe now. Boards were placed there recently but the new layer would be used to make c better grade. The bridge may be widened somewhat also. The war. den Is to take the matter up with the street department. W.

Placing the food in colander
for five minutes is a good idea as
then all juices will drain out

is in use, and they are just as
good as custards cooked in the

water and keep the water boiling
until the custard is set.
To wash black cloth garments,
add a tablespoonful of vinegar to
every gallon of water; wash in

instead of vinegar, rinse thor
