Ralph Moline, scout executive of region l, which includes all Boy Scout councils in the New England area, will stop off at Waterbury this afternoon to confer with David Bab- son, local scout executive, on scout ing activities in this city.

 Notice On Deductions
Crary of Democratic Town Committee Says Antis New Deal Propaganda Misleading; Employers Must
 Also Pay Their Share of Assessment

EmployeS of the Waterbury Clock company all received information today concerning the operation of the social security act. They were informed in the circulars, broad cast throughout the plant, that they will have one per cent of their pay deducted next year in order to comply with the social legislation enacted during the past three and one-half years of the Roosevelt ad- miniStration.
 Propaganda
 Local democratic leaders today smiled that the widespread delivery of this propaganda because they have been aware that this is one of the points on which the republican party has been streSsing during the past few weeks in an effort to swing votes to the g. o. p. candidates for president. Governor Ali Landon, and the republican nominee for governor, States Attorney Arthur M. Brown.
 "The republicans in distributing
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-10-26

this propaganda among the workers have failed to tell their employees that they, themselves, don't like the Roosevelt security act" declared Town Chairman John H. Crary to- day. Why? Because the employ CTS themselves will have to match, dollar for dollar, the contributions made by their employees to the so- cial security funds which will pro- vide for their welfare when they reach the age when the manufac- turers won't want them"
 Crary Comments
 It is strange, Town Chairman Crary also pointed out today, that the Waterbury Clock company should be distributing anti-Roose- welt propaganda in its factory when only a short time ago it was on the brink of financial ruin and had to borrow from the federal funds, made available by the New Deal in order to keep going.
 It was declared today by other democratic leaders that in issuing propaganda against the social se- curity act is a very weak gesture on the part of the republican party leaders to coerce the vote of the general electorate. President Roosevelt'S New Deal has met the demands of the working people to date" said Town Chairman Crary and will continue to do so after that victory which is assured on November 3rd,

 Republican members of the board have made certain statements to the press to the effect that they will not vote for the new $l,500, ,000 WPA bond issue unless they are shown how the last $8o0,000 in WPA bonds were spent.
 Meet Demands in Full
 Mayor Hayes and Controller Leary have decided to meet with their de- mands. Declaring today that they have nothing to hide as to their eff forts to keep local men and women on relief, in the absence of other employment, they set tomorrow afternoon at o'clock as the time when Aldermen Francis Phillips and George Kingston, the main g. O.. p. critics, can study the books for themselves. This same invitation goes for Alderman Joseph Wilhelm who also has suddenly developed a worry about the local WPA expendi- lures. .. .F
 Facts and figures will be presented and information will be freely given at tomorrow afternoons meeting as to the way in which the admins tration of Mayor Hayes has kept hundreds of men and women from starving by matching, in accordance with Washington, D. C., regulations, the money spent by federal relief agencies. The city has been forced to spend thousands and thousands of dollars for material and equip- ment. The funds for this kind of work have been exhausted, hence the need for a new bond issue. Approval Given
 The ERC of the state of Connecti- cut, one of the strictest organiza- tions of its kind in the federal re- lief fund, has already approved the proposal to issue $1,500,000 so that the WPA work may be continued. A few of the republican members of the board of aldermen are opposing the proposition. Politics is being injected into the relief work here by the g. o. p. was one of the many charges hurled here today by busi- nessmen and industrialistS.
 The industrialiSts have been CO., operating with the city and WPA officials during the past few weeks by absorbing some of those on relief. There are now about $50 men and women on the relief lists. The in- dustrialists and business men are taking over some of this total weekly but until they can complete the en- tire task the additional bond issue is felt necessary.

 Waterbury's workers who next year begin paying federal Social Security tax will eventually gain great benefits from their payments. A statement issued today on behalf of the federal Social Security Board answers several recently published articles which dwelled principally on the tax that was to be paid and did not emphasize the great advantages to the worker in the new Social Se- curity program.
 The plan. sets up a national re- tirement benefit plan. Every worker who pays in money as Social Secur- ity tax win get his money back, and will be assured of an old-age in- come, depending on his salary and his age when the plan goes into ef- feet.
