World War veterans Of Waterbury

the controversy now raging or

proposes to take future administra-
ton Of the funds from the Ameri-

mission.
The hearing held Tuesday wit
messed a lumber of prominent vet
erans' leaders in action. Opponents
Of the bill outnumbered the sup
porters. There were no personal
criticisms as recorded at previous
hearings.
Locally there has been occasional
criticism OF the sttae department OF
the American Legion, but nothing
directed against the local committee,
composed CT members of Corporal
Coyle Post, and with Past Com
mander Robert F. Brit, chairman
Procedure Of investigation has been
the principal point Of disagreement
here. Members Of the local commit
tee serve without compensation irl
handling veterans requests for re-
lief.
The Rev. Henry r. Cassidy Of
Norfolk q native Of waterbury re.
viewed the history Of the admins
tration Of the fund, at first carec
for by Frank M. Butterworth OF New
Haven, who served for some tint
without compensation, and when \
was found necessary to have the ful
time service Of q disbursing agent
he refused to accept the position or
o salaried basis.
Then there was an injunction pro-
ceeding brought for the purpose Of
preventing the payment Of admins
tration costs from the fund itself
and the Supreme Court decided that
administration should not fail be-
cause Of the failure Of the General
Assembly to make such provision.
