of SS. Peter and Paul, and Rev Mattehew c. Madden, pastor of the Mill Plain Union Church. Father Heating, stating that he was speak ing for 5000 parishioners, asked that serious consideration" be given the community clubs request, saying "the project has our hearty ap- proval Rev. MT. Madden pointed out that the gymnasium would be of great benefit to young people of the East End.
 Tn final argument MT. Kenny declared that the request of the East End residents was not an unreason- able one, that the cost to the city would be comparatively small, and that the city as well as the East End section would benefit.
 Kingston Approves Alderman George L. Kingston, Republican majority leader. said :: T think the demands of the East End Community Club are very light. I've lived there for 20 years and we've waited long time for many improvements"
 City Court prosecutor Michael J. Galullo asked If the hearing were limited to the three subjects pre- viously discussed and was informed 1t was not, Whereupon MT. Udel- owitz took the floor
 "Id like to talk about the bud- get itself" said Eddie. I'm not liable to be popular fellow; I want to throw cold water on some of these projects. ,Weve had budgets In the past that didn't mean a thing: now we have another one"
 Rowland Gets Credit
 Starting to get warmed up, Eddie went on: MT. Goss Enhance Com missioner John II. Goss) gave this body a report talking about eco- monies made in the last two years. I think 1t wa Sd little presumptuouS of him to take any credit; I think the late Sherwood L. Rowland was mainly responsible.
 MT. Udelowitz claimed that the city is faced with a $900,000 deficit this year. There's only one way to meet it," he said. That's to close down six schools and lay off the teachers; close down three fire houses and lay off the firemen: and cut the police force by 20 or 25 per cent"
 Claiming that the budget was drawn up to benefit the manufac- turers, Eddie declared 1t was "a fraud and a fake". The situation should be faced, he said, not avoid- ed, and an honest budget prepared The tax rate reduction, he said, is a joke" since the city will have to issue bonds again in 1941. Galull0 Sees Surplus
 MT. Galullo expressed a different view, declaring that 30-mill tax rate for next year could easily have been set. Under the proposed pud- get, he said, there should be a $400 ,000 surplus at the end of l940" Aldermanic President Burton H. Walker defended the Board of Fi- nance and MT. Goss, declaring that the budget presented fair and true picture.
 On motion of Alderman Kingston, with subsequent amendments by Alderman c. Arthur DuBois, Repub- lican, and Alderman J. Gregory Lynch, Democrat, the board voted to have committee of thres inves- tigate the three proposed projects, the gym. the bridge and the hous- ing study.
 Committees Named
 The committees, which will report back Monday night, are as follows: East End gym = Aldermen Kings ton, Joseph Reiner and Charles P. | Sciullo.

Man just goes on complicating his
life more and more as science ad-
vances civilization. In the early
spring there is that problem Of the
furnace-the furnace that cannot
cope with those first warm days.
There always has to be a fire Ito
take the chill off the house." but
that usually is too warm, and If you
let the fire go out the house gets
cold. Now science has devised the
cooling system to heckle mankind.
Cooling systems are fine thing, a
boon to man, and our regard for
them will increase as the days go
on now. But cooling systems are a
little problem of their own, prob
lem which arises just at that time
when the one of the heating plant
in spring is solved by nature. Now
is the time when cooling systems are
being their own particular pain.
Let 'em 60 and you'll freeze. Leave
'em off and you'll suffocate. Take
this new air-conditioning plant at
the Russian Troika, for instance.
1t is fine, truly, making the Troika
comfortable and smokeless like it
never was before. But it gives
Mischa, the Troika headwaiter, his
troubles. He's forever pushing but
tons to turn the thing on and off
these days on the fringe of really hot
weather. If he leaves the system on
too long his customers will begin to
shout about the frigidity; if he leaves
it off too long they'll be too warm to
shout about anything. So far he has
done nobly, but we get the nervous
feeling as we watch him stand silent
and concentrate on the temperature
about him. that Mischa is going to
