Five Cold Zones In
 '39 Hotpoint Models
Fifteen RefngeratOrs Embrace Modern Features;
 Represent Most Excellent Investment in Years

Hotpoint presents | complete new line of fifteen refrigerators embrac- ing five Standard models, three De Luxe models, four Imperial Porce- lain models and one six-cubic-foot special model.
 Greatest emphasis is being put on the De Luxe and Imperial series, with their massive beauty and streamlined grace designed to har- monize with other Hotpoint electric equipment for the modern all elec- tric kitchen.
 The De Luxe models bonderized cabinets are finished in baked Cal- gloss with acid resistant porcelain interiors, while Imperial models are porcelain inside and out. Heavy Thermocraft insulation, both moist- lure an dverlnifi proof, iIlsures reten- tiou of cold together with the Texto- lite strips that are installed around the doors.
 Five Cold Zones
 Five zones of cold are provided tn the new models and they are fitted with a cold control that makes pos- sible selection of sixteen points of temperature. A red button at the side of the Speed Freezer indicates when defrosting is required.
 Hotpoint's handy "pop-ice" trays are continued as features of the new models because they make it 50 simple and convenient to extract two or twenty ice cubes as needed.
 A three-way release lever now hangs in its own rack just inside the cabinets to be used as. 8 tray re- lease, 8 "pop-ice" release or as a bottle opener. Some models also have removable shelves in the speed freezer to make way for storage of a carton of ice cream or packages of frozen foods.
 The upper portion of the cold storage zone is formed by a heavy glass defrosting tray which may be used for storage as well as for cov- ering the meat pan. There are six different arrangements of pan and tray, providing as many different uses for the compartment.
 Conditioned Fruit Zone
 Hotpoint's conditioned fruit and vegetable zone include one for fruits that is a wire basket with a porce- lain front and the one for vegetables that is entirely of porcelain.
 Other details of the new models include sliding shelves with rubber bumpers, food safety gauge which hangs inside the cabinet and tells temperature at glance; automatic interior lights on all but the smallest models and handy tip-up shelves for tall bottles.

Attractive Terms For WaterburyH Housewives
Kitchens May Be Modernized Now With or Without -Refrigerators Represent Saving to Owners

No longer need the modern housewife delay the modernizing of her kitchen because of lack of ready cash. All of the appliances displayed in this section of the Democrat can be purchased by pay ing small amount down and the balance may be paid in small easy payments. In some cases these pay ments do not exceed ten cents a day. Some are even less than that, others are a little higher.
 The automatic refrigerator which makes possible many savings in the food budget, actually pays for it- self in very short period of time. In the first place it saves by en- abling the homemaker to take ad- vantage of quantity buying and special weekend sales.
 Then there are the savings which come from being able to preserve left overs" until 2uch time as they can be used, and the saving in being able to keep milk and other perishables safely at temperatures constantly below 50 degrees.

 RELIABLE STANDBY
Lester Strauss, President Pays Tribute to Hot.
 point Features

The Strauss Hardware Company, located on East Main Street, needs no introduction to the people or this city. For years the firm has been a by-word with the wives of this community and today the store has the reputation of being one or the leading hardware stores in Wa terbury, a reputation of fine, honest dealings, reputation of handling only the highest quality merchant, disc, whether it be in hardware, home appliances, electrical appil- ances, radios, refrigerators, wash. ing machines, or any other electrical appliance.
 Lester Strauss is the president of the company. He is well known in this vicinity where he enjoys an exceptionally fine reputation.
 MT. Strauss stated today that the reason he is featuring the new 1889 Hotpoint refrigerator is simply be- cause 1t is the best he could find.
 T canvassed the entire line Of refrigerators, and some of those inspected were good, but when l compared them to the new Hotpoint, there was no comparison. Hotpoint had it all over the other makes" 50 said MT. Strauss today.
 In this store person can buy Q new Hotpoint refrigerator for only very small amount down, a trtfly sum, and the balance can be paid ii1 small payments of only one dollar and ninteen cents a week. This naturally makes 1t possible for every family in the city to own one of the new beautiful refrigerators.

household essential.
 From the standpoint of appear ance the Hotpoint is distinctly beau- tiful with trim graceful lines that harmonize with the current style trends. The design motif is simple and conservative, devoid of tricks and extremes, planned to insure a lasting beauty, unlike many other models that soon acquire an out moded appearance.
 The Hotpoint refrigerator, so time ly come to Hadley's, is planned to provide every type of cold storage, the protection of liquid solid, bulk and packaged foods. With spring finally here, the making of frozen deserts and other forms of cold cookery is essential, and the Hot point electric refrigerator insures ease in the task, speed and con- plete release from the drudge asso- ciated with the old fashioned ma chimes.
 One of the most annoying quali- ties of many refrigerators is the hum that in the middle of the night bursts upon the ear. But the Hot point is permanently fabricated, vacuum sealed against air, dirt, and moisture, and runs without the slightest hint that the powerful mo- tor is in action.
 The Hotpoint is built of one piece solid steel, corrosion protected, with inner and outer castings entirely without wood or any other damage able material. The insulation is moisture proof and vermin proof, as well as efficient in the stoppage of heat.
 The Hotpoint will save money in all of these ways. It will prevent costly food spoilage. It will make possible quantity food purchases at bargain prices. It will freeze ice cheaper than it can be bought. It has low current consumption. And it eliminates repair and upkeep cost.
 It is certain that the people of Waterbury will appreciate the in- stallation of this important refriger- ator by the Hadley Co.,, now, as in the past 25 years, quick to respond to the demands of the public by featuring the best in every line.

Representatives wanted the w.
P. A. appropriation, but couldn't
see the needs of the farmers.
The Farm Lobby threatened to
kill the w. P. A. Bill, or cut the
amount down materially, unless
the city members voted for the
Farm Bill. Cities and thickly-po-
pulated industrial states domi-
nate the House of Representa-
tives; but each state has two
Senators, regardless of popula-
ton, and there are thirty-odd
states that are predominantly ag-
ricultural as against thirteen
which are mainly industrial. If
the agricultural states got togeth-
er in the Senate they could con-
troll that branch of Congress.
Deal Discussed
1t is openly talked in the CORR
doris and Hobbies in the Capitol
that the farm interests made a
deal with the w. P. A. supporters
whereby farm state votes for
w. p. A. were snapped for w. P.
A. votes for the farm program.
Everything that goes on in
Washington has political motives,
and the Presidents latest move
is taken as another indication
that he is going after a third
term The advantage to the Ad-
ministration of having nearly
four billions more of free-spend-
ing money in the next year is ap-
parent. The third-term movement
grows steadily, however. Three
Senators, Hughes of Delaware,
Smathers of New Jersey and CUT
fey of Pennsylvania have come
out openly for Mr.. Rosevelt's re-
nomination.
