 JG. Modern Franklin
 Appropriately enough, Benjamin A. Franklin, industrial engineering council of Springfield, Mass, and distant relative of the original Poor Richard" Is leading member of the foundation and an announced speaker at the forthcoming New York conference. The modern Franklin, declaring he believes in redistribution of wealth, adds 1t should be accomplished by making "the poor richer, rather than the rich poorer"
 MT. Fell in his announcement of the conference stated.
 "Sound economists agree present credit imitation in the United States will bc followed by drastic currency ihflation unless current savings by millions Of people are made and definite action is taken by employ CTS to promote such nationwide and permanent savings. It is the patriotic duty of wage carnerS to save now, tho same as they did In ioi7.l8 when they bought govern. ment bonds. If increased wages are immediately spent 1t will have tho effect of increasing the prices oi commodities and, therefore, the cost or living. If increased wages are systematically saved 1t will not only tend to keep prices at the current level, but will divert millions of dol lars Into channels available for in- vcstment, industrial development and relief unemployment"

NO REPORT, FEES SENT TO STATE
Schiller Did Not Make Ac. counting From January
 1, Treasurer Shows

Failure of Town Clerk Louis Schiller, Jr" of Naugatuck to sub- nit reports to the office of the state treasurer in Hartford at the begin 1 ming of each month, same report fot the preceding month, is believed responsible for issuance of the bench warrant that resulted in his arrest in the borough yesterday morning.
 After being presented later in the day before Judge Edwin c. Dicken- son in superior court at Waterbury MT, Schiller was released when bonds of $3,500 were furnished by James Farren of Naugatuck. MT. Schiller was in his office this morn ing as usual,
 According to information given out at Hartford MT. Schiller has not made any report nor submitted any fees to State Treasurer John S. Adds since January of this year, This precedes, also, the time when he was presented with papers on similar charges, At that time MT, Schiller claimed that the borough was not being credited certain amounts due 1t by the state and as a consequence he was holding up fees payable to the state.
 State Treasurer Addis at that time tApril ID asked an accounting of fees from fishing and hunting licenses as we'll as tax moneys, amounting to $2,269. With no re- ports or fees submitted since them, 1t is believed that the amount now concerned is considerably higher.
 Assistant States Attorney William B. Fitzgerald has stated that the case will probably not be taken up for at least ten days.

Meanwhile Police Chief j. Ster-
ling Oswalt, who Wednesday chal-
lenged the national W.C.T.U. to
send an investigating committee
here to prove its assertions, pointed
out that the W.C.TU.'s fear for
the youth of the country is less
likely to find root here than in
most other communities.
"The youth movement in Ell
Centro," OSwalt said, lis far more
advanced than in most cities. The
Junior Police organization - a
group copied In many places-was
conceived and first organized in
Ell Centre It's chief aim is to
keep boys out of trouble by get
ting them on the side of the law,
instead of against it. They learn
that it is more profitable, as well
as more pleasant, to lead clean
life.
Work of the Ell Centre Coordi-
mating Council, service clubs and
other organizations in behalf Of
youth, as well as Improvement of
city parks to provide wholesome
Fairgrounds, also was cited in re-
buttal against implied charges that
Ell Centre is poor environment
for youths.
