INDEPENDENTS IN SESSION TONIGHT
Town Committee Chair man Hartley Issues Of.
 ficial Call

Following only "A hours after a meeting of the Democratic town committee, the town committee of the Independent Democratic party will meet at The Elton tonight at 8 o'clock. The call for the meeting, is- sued by Town Chairman James J. Hartley, does not state the purpose of the session.
 There were reports today that 6 factional battle might develop to- night, with the cause being pro- posal that the Independents return to the Democratic fold and seek irn- portant places in the regular Demo- cratic organization rather than place @ ticket of their own in the field.
 Such a plan is expected to be strongly opposed by one group of the town committee, who favor en- tering @ slate of candidates in the city election this fall. The candidates whose names are mentioned most for the Independent Democratic mayoralty nomination, if 6 ticket is offered, are Commissioner John J. Kearney of the school board, and Roger v. Connor, unsuccessful can- didate four years ago.
 One of the subjects to be discussed, according to town committee, is the proposed city manager charter backed by the Citizens Good Gov ernment association. A referendum on the city manager council char ter has been set down by the legis- lature for Oct. 3.

Naugatuck, July IA - Warden J. Sheridan has not yet been informed as to how many local men will have to take a 30-day vacation from the WPA rolls because of the new order from national WPA headquarters. All who have been working for the WPA 18-months or more will be affected.
 The warden does not expect the notice to come through here for at least Q week. He said he does not yet know how much the states quota in this respect is.
 The warden said Sidney Rappe, divisional WPA engineer, William Harrington, WPA supervisor, and himself inspected local projects yes- terday. The visiting WPA officials were quite pleased with the projects here, the warden said.
 There are four sidewalk projects underway here now, MT. Sheridan said. These are on Rubber avenue, Bridge street, Meadow street and School street.
 In addition there is the Scott street project in which grading and building of necessary retaining walls is done. Also there are 75 employed on the big grading project on Mill vile avenue and there is a storm sewer project on this street at pres ent.
 There Is a group employed on a tree trimming project here. Only elm trees on public property are trim med. About 20 are working in Straitsville on the state park road there. Work of painting the Union City bridge Is progressing and the irp-rap wall work is continuing. A steam shovel Is used in connection with this project, and 1t is now operating near Curtiss street.
 Warden Sheridan points out most of these projects are central and help to improve the borough con- siderably.
