Action on the proposed survey into all city departments with a view toward effecting economies was again up to the board of finance this afternoon. The board, scheduled to meet at o'clock, was to receive a report from the board of aldermen that the sum of $6,000 be transferred from items in the present budget and set aside for such a survey.
 Recommendation by Mayor Frank Hayes for further economies in the city government may be submitted. It is understood that the mayor has been preparing a set of such recom- mendations, to supplement proposed economies he has already suggested.
 The board of aldermen voted Mon- day night to return the proposal to the board of finance, with the recom- mendation that the money be found. The survey would undoubtedly be undertaken by Griffenhagen & As sociates. It would take two months, with a cost of $3,O00 per month.
 Also slated to come up this after noon was Mayor Hayes recommen- dation of last week of plan where

The Waterbury Brass Workers union, principal CIO affiliate in this city, is taking no sides in the bat tie between U. s. Senator Augustine Lonergan and Archibald McNeil for the Democrat examination for the senate, it was stated today by John J. Driscoll, executive secretary of the union. Reports that labor in the state is openly split on the question, with the A. F. fo L. for Lonergan and the CIO against him, are not true as far as Waterbury is con- cerned, MT. Driscoll said.
 The union, under the terms of it's agreement of afflliation with Labors Non-Partisan League of Conneci- cut, will support any candidate en- dorsed by the league. Action on Senator Lcnergan'S candidacy will probably be taken at meeting of the LNPL early next month.
 A. F. of L. Endorses
 President William Green of the American Federation of Labor yes terday gave Senator Lonergan his unqualified endorsement" Individ- ual A. F. of L. unions followed suit, and they are expected to play an active part in the state campaign this fall.
 National headquarters of Labor's Non- Partisan League has taken no official stand as yet on Senator Lonergan for reelection if he asks for their aid prior to the Demo- cratic stae convention. Such action would place both state labor fac tions on the Lonergan band-Wagon and would do much to insure his re- turn to the senate.
 Despite efforts on the jart of MT. McEeil 1t appears that he faces an almost hopeless struggle to win the nonina ton. At the present time the basic voting strength of the state party organization, which will con- trio the convention is behind Sena- tor Lonergan.

GOOD NEICHB0R'
 POLICY REPEATED
Roosevelt Dedicates Fed= eral Building at New York
 Worlds Fair Grounds

New York, June 30. (UP) - President Roosevelt reaffirmed his good neighbor" policy in interna- tional relations today in brief speech to an audience of foreign, national, state and city officials on the frounds of the 1889 world fair.
 The President drove here from Hyde Park, N. Y, to lay the corner stone of the fairs federal building.
 He urged the foreign officials to induce their countrymen to visit the United States in greater num- bers so as to develop greater under standing and friendship between this and other nations.
 "All of us realize, of course" he continued" that the affairs of many parts of the world are, to put it politely, somewhat distraught. Such condition necessarily accompanied wars and rumors of warS."
 The President said that while the people of the Western Hemisphere were happily removed" from the immediate pressure of war, they were, nevertheless, concerned lin a larger sense" because of the good relations the United States enjoys with all nations. The good neigh bor policy, he said, was developed because the American republics were against war" and had agreed quietly to discuss" difficulties that may arise. Those ends were achieved, he said, because, in a large measure, leaders in the Western Hemisphere kept sight of the per Sonal equation.
