Mayor Frank Hayes was asked by letter from Controller Sherwood L. Rowland, submitted at the board of finance meeting yesterday, to obtain waivers of school teachers, those city employees on contract, agreeing to deduction of the 10 per cent in sal ary cut which tho board authorized several weeks ago, to take effect June 1. But the mayor remarked that he did not propose to run around getting waivers and added that this function appeared to be within the province of the con- troller.
 about procedure the last time such waivers were sought and it developed that the corporation counsel makes out the forms and the controller sends them out.
 Forms Ordered
 "The controller can't take the de- duction out of the pay unless he gets waivers" Commissioner Goss re- marked. Didn't you get the waivers before?" he asked the mayor. The latter said he believed that the con- troller made such arrangement.
 T think if the controller makes out waiver forms and sends them to all employees and officials they will come back signed" the mayor said The board voted to have the con- troller obtain such forms from the corporation counsel and mail them to the employees within the category cited. A reserve fund within the street department to take the place of the budget item calling for $17,750 an- ticipated as cash from state road aid, this year supplied by the state in form of materials, was voted. Con- trary to the controllers stand, Com missioner GoSs remarked that the board could not reduce these appro- priations and Executive Secretary Thoms P. Kelly was called in to the meeting to substantiate this opinion on charter provisions.
 The controller, through Repub- lican Alderman Thomas Bane, had introduced a measure before the board of aldermen seeking to reduce two street department appropria- tions, for asphalt and trap rock, to write off" this anticipated revenue item on the current budget. The finance board instead set up the re- serve item in the street department, as contingency reserve, subject to transfer after the first of Septem- Der when the charter allows such procedure.
 Hazardous Condition
 Report of the board of public works that a hazardous condition ex- ists in Watertown where the city of Waterbury laid part of a second pipeline failed to obtain the re- quested $5,000 to institute promised repairs. Commissioner Goss moved that the city engineer be asked for an estimate on expense of temporary repairs after Controller Rowland had called on his accountant, James P. Purcell, to report on the condi- tions of available funds to under take such cost. estimated at $5.000 by the city engineer.
 Secretary Kelly was called in a second time to explain requested transfer of $5,000 from the Fairlawn Manor WPA project to the Hamil- ton avenue WPA project, sought by the Board of Public Works on recommendation of the city en- gineer. He told the board that

Crucial" Rule, Writes Allen
 To Cross

Wilton, Conn.,. June 3. (UP)- The letter-writing feud between Gov. Wilbur L. Cross and Devere Allen, gubernatorial candidate of the labor party of Connecticut, broke out anew today.
 Allen recently demanded the Governor not stand for reelection this fall because of grand jury revelations throughout the state. The Governor, in a 27-word reply, labeled the first Allen letter as "adroit and most dishonorabIc."
 "I congratulate you on your skill in this kind of writing" said the Governor.
 Thereupon, Allen sent second letter.
 My style of letter writing is of no importance" the left-wing so- cialist said. But your style of governing in the present shameful situation is crucial"

BASKETBALL GAME IS
 IN JUNEAU TONIGHT

Douglas high school basketball team goes to Juneau for their second game with Juneau High Crimson Bears in the J.HS. gymnasium to- night and aboard the bus leaving at ' o'clock will be a bunch of boys determined to redeem themselves by playing a different brand of ball than they put up the last time. Then, overcome by something akin to stage fright, they didn't even get started before the game had ended Such cases happen frequently with competing teams.
 But the worst is now over, Coach Martin Pedersen says, and he is confident they will make much better showing tonight. Not that they expect to win, he said, but the score will not be quite so one-sided.
