POSTAL RECEIPTS
 IN MARCH SOAR
Have Not Been Exceeded Since December, 1929;
 Business Upswing

Postal receipts for the month of March in Waterbury were higher than any other month since Octo- Der, 1919, excluding all December receipts, it was announced this morning by Postmaster Charles Babin. The total receipts for the past month were listed as $54, 4,697 AS. This total is only $1,129 less than the total for October 1929, which was $55, ,826.20.
 The figures for the past month also show an increase of 23.2 per cent over the same month during 1886. At that time the total re- ceipts were $44,367. .73: An increase of $8,567.25, or IS per cent, over the month of February, 1887, is also noted in the March figures.
 The approach to the all time high at the local postoff1ce during the past month, according to the post master, is a reflection of the up- swing in business and further proof of the fact that conditions in Wa terbury are much better at the pres ent time.

CITY TO RECEIVE
 FORMER QUARRY
Two Pieces of Porperty Will Be Freed For
 Taxes Owed

The City of Waterbury will be enriched by the gift of two pieces of property from the Tracy Broth CTS Company, with the sanction of Judge Frank P. McEvoy. The sane tion is necessary because the com- pany is in receivership.
 One piece of property is former quarry on Lounsbury avenue and the other is the site of the former Third Congregational church, which was once situated on Congress ave- nue.
 Taxes over a period of years are due on the property and they are an expense to the receivership, ac- cording to Attorney Nathaniel R.. Bronson who appeared and ex- plain the case today. An attempt to sell the property for $1O0 each lot was futile. The city woll be allowed to take title by voluntary foreclos- ure.

Lithuanian Legion to Convene in City
PASSION PLAY
 PRESENTED HERE.
From Manager 10 Throne" Given at Second
 Church

All the principal events in the life story of Christ were portrayed against an elaborate and beautiful religious background last evening at the Second Congregational church when the members of the parish presented a passion play entitled From Manager to Throne" The play was in twelve scenes and was written and staged by Raymond l.. Clarke of New Haven, former or ganist of the Plymouth Congrega- tional church.
 It will be repeated again this evening at eight o'clock.
 The stage last evening was conl- plex setting of several different levels and extending out into the auditorium space ordinarily used for the first few rows.
 The part of the Christus was play. ed by Ralph D. Bonacker, a student at the Union Theological Seminary and his presentation was excellent ly handled.
 Most of the costumes were pre- pared by the church and were rich and colorful. As to the scenic effects, it would be a problem to choose be- tween them, so well were they set up for the performance last evening. There was no lapse between scenes in the presentation last evening and some of the additional scenic effects and back-drops were delight to the audience.
 Practically all the characters mentioned in the New Testament are included in the play and the plan of the plot included the amaz- ing story of Christ all in a few short hours.

SIMILAR NAMES
 CAUSE CONFUSION

Louis Jannetty, well known ban joist and employe of the Connecti- cut Light and Power company. ap- peared at the office of the Democrat this morning to correct a coinci- dence in similar names which has caused him a great deal of embar- rassment. MT. Jannetty is not the Louis Jannetty who was arrested yesterday on a warrant for obtain ing money under false pretenses. The man held on that charge re- aides on the Cheshire road. MT. Jannetty the musician is a resident of Oakville. The reason the mans address was not published in last nights paper is that 1t was not available until today.

428 Relief Cases

New Haven Staff Members to Conduct lt-WPA Em=

classified as employables, who are receiving direct relief. This means that there is no member of the famil working. There are 187 cases receiving supplementary relief.
 The purpose of the survey is to find out how many families still on the direct relief roles are actually fit for WPA employment and it IS being conducted throughout the en- tire state.
 The heads of the 428 families found to be eligible for an employ able" rating by the local staff will be notified by the local office as to the time interviews will be held here under the direction of the New Haven staff members.
 According to statement from Robert Hurley, state WPA admin istrator, there is no positive indi- cation that those found to be em- ployable will be immediately placed on WPA roles, but there is a possi- bility that work may be found for them on projects which have already been approved. The large number of local cases to be interviwed does not seem to indicate that even one half of the total number will be able to get WPA jobs here.
 A report released recently i'll Washington states there are approx imately 14,000 cases in the state of Connecticut. Schedules in con- nection with interviewing the heads of the number of families who are listed by local welfare department workers as "employable" are being prepared at the present time and will be sent to offices in all parts of the state.

SAFEGUARD CHILDREN

With schools re-opening Wednes-
day, parents should be prepared to
give every consideration to the safety
of their children. rISt
After a summer of play and recre-
alton, children in their formative years
are apt to grow careless of the safety
/ lessons learned from the previous
term of school.
Each parents should do his part
toward refreshing their minds and i'm
pressing them with the proper safety
measures to be employed in crossing
streets or highways, using playground
equipment, playing strenuous school
games and other activities in which
injuries or accidents are likely to &C.
cur.
This imperative need for safety in
struction among school children is
stressed by the following figures fur
nished by an insurance company: APP
proximately $500 school children be-
tween the ages of 5 and IA lost
their lives through accidents occur
ing during the past year. Of this total
18 percent of the accidents occurred
within school buildings, II percent
on school grounds, 7 percent on the
way to or from school, and the re-
mining So percent elsewhere.
Motorists are also urged to give
their fullest cooperation to the move
ment fostered for the protection of
school children. A factor of impor-
lance is the appearance on the streets
of many youngsters attending school
for the first time. These children have
not had the benefit of safety instruc-
ton in the classrooms and in their be-
half we appeal particularly to motor
lists.
All drivers are urged to use the ut
most caution where children are cross
ing streets. No one can foretell when a
child is going to rush forward.
Because of this uncertainty the duty
devolves upon the motorist to have
his car under such control that he can
stop at a moments notice.
Safe drivers never take chances
where children are concerned.

st. Luke's church: Service at 900

Sunday morning. st. Johns, at Red
House: Sunday school at $50; worship
service at 10:40. The theme of the SER
mon by the pastor is "The Christian
Attitude Toward Life" Mankind is in
state of confusion and strife today
because the church members in the
average community do not accept life
as a gife of God, fail to learn the basic
principles of life, and therefore can
not face its opportunities, it's difficult
ties and its moral aims with Christlike
courage, Rev. A. K. Jones, pastor,
says. Neither wearied or worried by
the cares and cruelties of life, the
first Christians found real happiness
in serving their followmen.
