interests by indiscriminately offer ing fine rents at a price of twenty dollars a month or less. It cannot be too strongly emphasized that the program of the United States Hous- ing Authority is designed solely to benefit low-income families now liy- ing under substandard conditions.
 To make the point clear that the housing project will not compete with legitimate business interests, let me point out that by the Con- l1ecticut enabling statute under which our local Authority was formed, no family can rent one of these dwellings if the total family income per month is more than five times the dwelling rental.
 In other words, if the dwelling were renting at eighteen dollars a month, no family would be eligible for consideration if its total inscome for a month were over ninety dol lars.
 In short, then, the housing project is designed to benefit only those poor families for whom private in- dustry has never found it profitable to build = families with a yearly income of one thousand dollars or less.
 Too many underprivileged families in Waterbury, both white and negro, are living in sub-standard dwellings at the persent time - dwellings which certainly deserve the name of slulns. Such slurn tene- iiients, with their lack of proper light, heat and elementary sanitary facilities, are known by every thoughtful citizen to be breeding place for disease and crime - disease and crime which in the long run are far more costly to the community than the few paltry thousands which the city would be asked to remit in taxes to the housing project each year.
 To the man who professes horror at the idea of the city spending few dollars to subsidize decent homes for the under privileged fam lilies of Waterbury, offer a chal- lenge to join with me in campaign to repienish the city's treasury by revaluing the assessments on all property in this city.
 Like thousands of other citizens, I know that if the large industrial and realty interests of Waterbury were paying taxes on something like the real value of their property, the Board of Aldermen would not be asked to consider a boost in our already towering tax rate; but could, in fact, provide more relief and other essential services to the taxpayers at an even lower rate of taxes.
 The most fundamental principle of good government is that the com inunity shall care for its needy and underprivilesed by taxing those best able to pay. Such a principle will find more favor and more active sup port among the electorate of Water bury than that shadow-b boxing with economies with which our local oli- garchy of wealth and privilege has been seeking to beguile the public, to the obed.ent applause of the Citi- sens' Good Government Association.
 Respectfully yours,

 On East Main street this morning. on the grade above Welton street, bus skidded in a rut and ended up at a 46 degree angle across the road. All traffic was halted while the bus was straightened out.
 Cars, with and without chains, have been stuck by the score, halting cars behind them while they were pushed ahead or to the side of the road
 Perspiring traffic officers, mop- ping their brows, say they've never seen anything like it. Neither have pedestrians, motorists, or bus pas- sengers.
 Nothing Like It
 Police say they have seen serious short time traffic congestion in the past, but never anything to compare in length and seriousness with what has prevailed about the city all dur ing the past week.
 Many motorists have left their cars parked in garages since last Thursday, choosing rather to let bus drivers have the responsibility and preferri1g being late to risking accident or injury by driving their own cars.
 Lend Your Help
 Officials of the street department today warned owners of automobiles who have been throwing snow into the streets III order to make place for their cars in front of their homes, that this disposition of the snow is merely making rutS and Jumps to the general detriment of any motorists touring such areas.

Traffic Congestion
 Headache For Cops
Greatest Tie-Ups in History Blamed on Storms Deep
 RutS Worn Into Streets

cles have found themselves daily late for work, late for lunch and late for supper.
 Each morning there have been long lines of cars stretching from Exchange Place for long distances along streets leading to the center. The same situation has prevailed each evening, from to o'clock.
 Last evening, traffic extended in a solid line from Washington street, on South Main street, to North Square. A similar line extended from West Main street, to Hamilton park.
 Bus Needs Tow Car
 A bus became stuck in rut along the curb in Exchange Place last night, adding to the confusion. It was many minutes before a tow car got 1t into the roadway. Meantime other busses had to halt in the street to take on and discharge pas- sengers, and consequently hamper ing passenger car and truck traffic.
 At about the same time a passen- ger car ran out of gas on North Main street, tieing-up busses, trucks

The greatest traffic congestion in Waterbury's history has taken place during the past week, veteran police officers declared today. Never be- fore, it was said, have there been such steady tie-ups of traffic, such long lines of creeping cars, and such delays in getting traffic mov- ing.
 Police blame the two snowstorms of the week, one on Thanksgiving, the other Saturday night and Sum- day. Tn their wake the storms left snow and ice covered streets, which have seemingly grown worse as the week progressed.
 With deep ruts worn into the streets and with traffic held at a sIail's pace, busses have been run ming far behind schedule all week. During the morning, noon and eve- ming rush hours, it has taken many busses more than twice and often three times their usual running times to their destinations.
 All bus lines have been affected by the traffic congestion. Passen- gers in crowded public service vehi-

Driscoll, organizer for the Congress of Industrial organiza- tion and member of the Waterbury housing authority, has written Aldermanic President Patrick M.

 Text of Letter
 MT. Driscoll's letter follows:
 November 30, 1888. Mir. Patrick M. Perriello, President, Board of Aldermen,
 City of Waterbury.
 I am addressing this open letter to you in your capacity as chairman of the zoning committee of the Board of Aldermen, which is now considering the request of the Hous- ing Authority of Waterbury for g change of zone on the property do- mated by Miss Helen Chase for a low-rent public housing project in this city.
 I trust that your committee will not be adversely influenced on this request by the statements and opin- ions which the local press has at- tributed to various representative of the banks and realty interests concerning the social value of a public housing project to this com. munity.
 These statements and opinions have been so misleading that ons can only suppose that they are based on a colossal ignorance of the aim; and methods of the United States Housing Authority, or else on a de- liherate and selfish attempt to biAs the public against this hurnanltaf. ian program.
 I say that those views expressed by representatives of the realty in. terests are misleading because the, uniformly convey the mistaken notion that the low-cost housing program will compete with private
