 Loader Bought
 The borough has purchased a loader to be used in loading sand or dirt on to street department trucks and 1t was scheduled to arrive to- day or Monday, Warden John J. Sheridan announced today.
 The loader will be of considerable help to the borough and will more than pay for itself in compara- lively short time, MT. Sheridan added.
 AS the street department now has the contract to- supply sand for streets in the oiling work underway this will help to speed Up the job. Up to now, street department work CTS have ShoVeled the sand or dirt onto trucks but the loader will re- duce considerably the number le. quired in such work and will speed 1t up, the warden said.
 He declared 1t will not mean that any employees of the department will be out of work as the present program of the borough provides plenty of work and the men can be used on other projects.
 The warden and street depart- r1ent officials are quite pleased with the. work done by the new oil Spreader and feel 1t Is quite effi- cient. '.-N ,.
 Warden Remains Firm
 A conference yesterday between Charles A. Chapman, Connecticut Railway and Lighting company ofii- cial, and Warden John J. Sheridan failed to alter the stand of the war; den on the question of permitting the busses of the Connecticut c. R. and L. company to change their route 50 as to pass over Church street here.
 Tho question of whether the coni- pany will receive permission from the public utilities commission to change their route as desired is ex- pected to be determined at the meeting of the commission in Hart- ford at l0:46 next Tuesday morning.
 The company in request to the commission claims that use of the freight yard of the New Haven rail- road near South Water street here as c turning place for the 0. c. and L. busses has proved to be 6 i1ui- Sailce to the New Haven Railroad company.
 AS c consequence 1t asks that the Corpany be permitted to have its ss go over South Water street to Rubber avenue, thence to Church street, thence to Maple street and back to Main street via Maple. Now the busses go to South Water street, turn at the freight yards and re- turn to Main street by way of South Water and Maple streets.
 At the time he was informed of the request of the 0. R. and L. com- parly both Warden Sheridan and Chief of Police John Adamson stated themselves emphatically in opposition to the proposed change. as they claim Church street Is crowded enough now without hav- ing 69 Q. R. and |. buses cross 1t each day. XXI. &,
 Yesterday the warden and MT. Chapman conferred but the discuss sion did not change the opinior Of MT. Sheridan, the warden saif 4ter. He declared he will .degfinitel speak against it next Tuesday and hinted he may even 50 to the lengths of getting an injunction barring the company from using Church street, If 1t becomes necessary.
 It would not be fair to the many Naugatuck residents who now use the street, he asserted.
