C Communities May Be
 Asked To Contribute
 25% of otal Estimate
Demands Higher Percentage on All Contracts; Problem COnfrOnts City Officials

The City of Waterbury's relief problem, already serious because of curtailment of WPA projects and consequent increased demands for assistance, faces an even more serious threat in an amendment passed by the U. s. Senate yesterday which would require the sponsor to contribute at least 25 per cent of the cost of WPA projects. In addition, relief funds have not yet been voted by Congress and unless action is taken by midnight tomorrow, WPA work all over the country will be halted.
 Serious Results
 With the board of finance seeking every possible economy in order to allow the department of public well fare to carry on for the remainder of the year, it would be serious blow if the 25 per cent sponsors cost bill is approved by the House of Representatives. The city would be able to provide the sponsors share for only few projects, and other WPA projects, giving employment to hundreds of local residents, would have to be dropped.
 At present, the amount of the sponsors contribution is left to the discretion of WPA authorities. In most local projects, the city provides the material and equipment, while the WPA takes care of the labor cost. In only rare instances does the city's contribution amount to 25 per cent of the total cost.
 Only last. week the board of

Former Mayor s Case

Request for Days COntinuances Touches Off Verbal
 Pyr0tecnics Between Prosecutor and Attorney

Feathers flew in City Court today when Atty. Joseph Guilfoile, brother of former Mayor Francis P. Gull foile, bounded from his chair near the empty jury box and verbally as- sailed Prosecuting Attorney Mitchell G. Meyers.
 The session proceeded peacefully for 8 few moments. Prosecutor Mey- CTS told Judge Edward Mascolo he had been unable last night to file a brief opposing a further continuance to former Mayor Guilfoile. charged with embezzlement by agent, but would file the brief by II o'clock this morning. Atty. William E. Thoms, also former mayor, who is defend- ing Francis Guilfoile, said the pro- cedure was satisfactory to him, and he would remain on call.
 Witness Absent
 At this point, Prosecutor Meyers observed that the case could not have been tried this morning any, how because complaining witness Luciano 'Santoro, bank street grocer, is in New York seeing his daughter off for Italy.
 Joseph Guilfoile leaped from his chair, rurshed to Atty. Thoms and whispered hurriedly in his ear:

$l,5OO ASKED IN
 ALIENATION SUIT
Property Transfer Also Involved in Action Filed
 Here Today

Damages of $500 are claimed in a suit brought in common pleas court today against Ellen A. Kurz and John Kurz of this city by He lene Tapley, of Brooklyn, N. Y, who alleges that the affections of her former husband, John Frodel, were alienated. The plaintiff also seeks to have invalidated a property transfer from Ellen Kurz to John Kurz, claiming it was done so that the real estate could not be at tached.
 Miss Tapley says she married Frodel, brother of the defendant, in New York in June, 1899, and lived happily with him for two years. Then, allegedly the defendant FL len KurZ alienated his affections from his wife, and he came to Wa terbury to live. It is alleged that Ellen Kurz took large quantity of furniture and household effects. Miss Tapley says she sued Frodel for divorce. The second count al- leges that real estate on White street, Waterbury, was transferred to delay the lawsuit.
 Attorney Ralph c. Coppeto rep reSents the plaintiff.

Santoro's daughter was married yes- terday." He added few words that were lost in the confusion.
 That's what you get for extend ing little courtesy" said Prosecu- tor Meyers, wrily half addressing Judge Mascolo, but turning also to Joseph Guilfoile who had resumed his seat near the jury box. Guilfoile started to rise again, calling sharp ly across the courtroom, You'll live to regret that" v'her .r'' = Mascolo interposed with the words:
 This is no place TOT e.fsonal re- marks"
 Request Granted
 Judge Mascolo continued the case until tomorrow morning Motion for a continuance was made by Atty. Thoms at special session of city court Tuesday afternoon. asking that the stay be granted until for mer mayors civil suit against San- toro has been tried in Superior court. Prosecutor Meyers opposed the con- tinuance.

 GALA JAMB0REE
Com. Schneer Heads COm= mittee in Charge of
 Coming Pageant

A meeting of the executive com mittee of the Wheeler Young Post, Veterans of Foreign Wars was held last night and plans were an- nounced for a gala Jamboree to be held at the Waterbury Armory, Fri day night, August 4th. Features of the V. F. w. Jamboree, will be an extravagant floor show, baby pageant, Jitterbug contest and danc- ing.
 The Ladies' Auxiliary will select and present at the Jamboree the Greater Waterbury Personality Girl' and her subordinates, Miss Waterbury, Miss Naugatuck, Miss Watertown, Miss Waterville, Miss Woodbury. The selections will be based on votes and trip to the Worlds Fair all expenses paid for a week will be the award.
 One of the feature events of the V. F. w. Jamboree will be the prize baby show. Each entrant will be given a medical examination and judged, according. to health, beauty and personality and besides winning the title of Baby Greater Water bury" will be awarded a $50 cash bank account and babies who are selected for second and third places will be awarded SIS and $10 re- spectively.

finance was informed that the well fare department faces a deficit of $141,00 for the year. A good part of this can be made up from funds which have been encountered during the economy drive, and from fund set up for use for welfare purposes only. But a further WPA curtail- ment, certain to result locally if the 25 per cent sponsors share re- quirement is adopted into the law would send hundreds of men now employed by the WPA to the city welfare department for relief.
 Special Session
 What the city can do in such a situation is almost impossible to conjecture. Borrowing would be one solution, but that would have to be authorized by the legislature. It may be thaat other cities will be similarly affected, if they must pay at least 9 per cent of WPA cost, and that Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin will have to call a special session of the General Assembly,.

Recognition of this prospect opens
vista of comfort conditioning for

in this country. For those who

reference is made to papers by Du

inexpensive to install, even in the
higher-cost living quarters in this
country, provision must be made in

dust and odors and be sterilized.
This presupposes simple duct sys-

Why is 1t that doorbells always
ring when you. have just gone up
stairs or to a far-distant part of
the house? 1t would take a very
good soothsayer or psychologist to
figure that question out, but even
then the door would still be left
unanswered. Furthermore, if you
should happen to be in the neigh
borhood of the door when a caller
pushed the button, silly as that may
sound, you don't always want to
open it without first knowing whom
you are apt to encounter.
To save you steps and also pro-
vide complete protection against in
truders, we would like to suggest a
new front-door instrument which is
easily installed and also adds a
touch on the exterior, and covers a
two-Way microphone device. Thus
when some one comes up to your
door he pushes a conveniently To-
Gated pushbutton in the lower part
of the plate, and you at the other
end pick up an attractive telephone
instrument almost exactly like the
one used on your regular phone.
You say Hello" or GO away"
according to your mood, and the
would-be caller answers and tells
you who or what he is. Then, if
everything has worked out all right
SO far, you go to the door and let
him in.
The microphone under the plate
is protected with decorative piece
of oiled silk membrane, and there
is also a small removable brass plate
in the center upon which you can
have your name emblazoned. The
outfit comes with a 50-foot length
of four conductor wire cables, and
you can connect up a separate bell
or chime to it if you so desire. The
instrument operates very inexpen-
sively on dry cells, and only very
small amount of current is required

Passing quickly from the front

wind Of what sounds like a clever
idea in the way of shingles and roof

in which aluminium foil is being

not particularly like the idea of an
aluminium surfaced roof because
they think it will be shiny and mod
ernistic in effect; but that is not
the case with this material. It's

shaped shingles will make the bene-
fetal aluminium almost unnoticea-

mer the reverse situation holds true
and your house is kept cool by re-
Election Of otherwise discomf1ting
heat waves from the sun.
Going still a step further, a man.
ufacturer now presents an alurni-
mum surfaced roofing and shingles
which reflect the suns rays before
they can even penetrate the first
layer of building construction up
there. This not only will keep your
attic and house cooler in torrid
weather, but will also protect the
asphalt in the shingles themselves
and protect them from heat deterio-
ration.
BY surfacing the roofing and
shingles with fat-shaped granules
the manufacturers have been able
to cover the various materials with
an evenly distributed coat of alu-
miQum. These fiat surfaces also
tend to make your new aluminium
roof less apt to stain from the effects
of SCOT, dirt and general weathering.

Supreme Court Rules Such Incomes Taxable : Also

WASHINGTON, May 22.-Revers- ing previous decisions, the United States Supreme Court today held that salaries of Federal Judges are subject to Federal Income Taxation
 Justice Frankfurter delivered the opinion and ruled specifically that the Federal Government could col lect income tax on the $12,500 salary received in 1886 by Circuit Judge Joseph Woodrough, of Omaha.
 Gold Clause" Ruling
 The court divided four to five in ruling that the 1883 gold clause law voided contracts for optional payment of already issued gold bonds or in foreign currency equi- valent to the value of gold dollars.
 In another case, the court held that the state of Oklahoma had un- constitutionaIly denied a negro the right to register for the November 1884 elections because of his race and color.
