 EXAMS CHECKED
Motor Vehicle Inspectors Exceptionally Busy From
 January to April

From January 1st to April 1st, the State Department of Motor Vehicles gave 5,35O examina tions for opera tors licenses.
 Tn order to facilitate sthe handling of examinations and avoid 8 big rush the last week of April and the first week of May, the Department of Motor Vehicles announces that applicants may take their examina- tions at any time now and the 1888 operators licenses will be mailed to them in time to be used May 1St.
 New operators who have been waiting until the last of April to take examinations in order that they would not have to pay an addi- tional three dollars for a 1937 license, are urged to take the exam ination now, leave the fee at one of the department offices and the license will be mailed to them. De- lay in taking this action will un- doubtedly mean a rush which the department will not be able to handle, and many persons may be disappointed in that they will have to return on a day following for examinations.
 Those who wish to drive during the month of April will have to get a 1897 license and then renew that before May lst, as 1888 licenses can- mt he ,lsed before April 30th at midnight.

 Although some local factories have noted a slight increase in orders dur ing the current week, the situation ot business as it relates to the brass goods industry, is such that a prom inent official commented, Such heavy losses cannot be borne indefi- initely," this, in connection with the announcement of a pay cut about ten days ago.

 The number of employees affected by the wage schedule change at the Waterbury Farrel Foundry was not learned exactly. Officials intimated that about 75 probably are involved and that there will be no further reductions in any department within the month, at any rate.
