Naugatlck, December II. The out-of-school program of the Na- tioral Youth Administration is cur- rently operating in Naugatuck as well as in most of the other towns and cities of Connecticut. Within the next two weeks twenty-five ad- ditional boys are to be put to.work by the MA in the local projects. Twenty new girls also will be added to the payrolls during that period.
 This MA program provides wages to young men and young women who have left school and who have been unable to find private employ ment. It gives these youths val- uable work experience and related training which improves their chances of getting jobs in private industry.
 In Naugatuck the boys have re- ceived experience in land-scaping. carpentry, furniture repairing and reconditioning and the care and repair of automobiles and tractors. Naugatuck boys have been fortu- nate in having this opportunity to become auto mechanics. since it is the only unit of its kind offered by the IVA in this part of the state.
 Girls are employed by the IVA at the present time doing clerical work in several local offices. These girls. through the experience they derive from this work are able to get excellent jobs in private em- ployment. Naugatuck girls are also employed by IVA doing cafeteria work and operating power sewing machines. The sewing machine ex- perience enables them to get private employment in a local industrial concern.
 MA offers to the boys of Nau- gatuck an opportunity to get ex- perience in any of the metal trades at our resident centers in Nepaug, Connecticut, and Quoddy. Maine. Both of these centers provide ex- perisnce in machine. sheet metal,

not yet acquainted himself with the facts on the matter.
 Burgess Smigelsli said he would like to hear the companyis views and agreed to withdraw his motion for the present.
 Burgess Fremont Hoadley asked what was the reason for the short time between the announcement of the company's plans and the date of the utilities commission hearing.
 Later Leon MoraslSi said he was at the meeting as a representative of the Polish Central committee to oppose the meter installation, and asked permission to attend the ses- sion Saturday. Warden Sheridan said he and the rest of the public would be welcome.
 Snow Loader Action
 The board authorized the street committee and Superintndent of streets to investigate and purchase a snow loader, if it is considered adviseable. Warden Sheridan ex- plained there are now only eight full-time men oh the street depart ment and total of about g enn- ployed by the department with many of these being truck drivers As a result there are not enough of laborerS to take care quickly o1 the snow in gutters in the business sections, and the snow loader would prove invaluable in this, he said. II would keep Is trucks moving, he said. The borough has nine trucks Waterbury has one loader and Is planning to get two more, ite said
 There is used one which can be bought reasonably from the Con. necticut Railway and Lighting Com- pany. Supt. of Streets Harold Mur- tha also said the department has not enough men to do the work and recommended purchase of loader It is of tractor type, with buckets and grinder which cuts into snow
 New Bridge
 The borough will have to consider construction of a new bridge il, Union City soon, Warden Sheridan said This discussion was brought up when Burgess Fellows said that some of the blanks on the west side of the bridge should be replaced and MT. Murtha said the whole bridge should be re-planked.
 The warden said the borough could get a bridge something like that constructed a few years age in Beacon Falls, at a total cost oi about $60,o00. Under the state aic help, the town would only have tt pay about $12,500, the warden said In the meantime the loose plankE will be replaced.
 There was discussion of designat. ing certain streets for sliding. Bur- gess Hoadley asked that part oi Johnson stret be barred from traf- f1c between 3 p. m. and 8 D. m. fol this purpose and it was agreed te give it a trial, although no actior in regard to other streets was taken
 Supt. Murtha pointed out that when streets are sanded. sli6eri complain and when they aren't

Opposition to Meters


 That opposition looms to the pro- posed installation by the Naugatuck Water Company of meters here and a rate system based on the meters was evidenced at the borough board session last night.
 It was finally decided to hold a meeting of the board Saturday aft- ernoon at which the water company officials will explain the reasons for the meters and will probably answer questions of the burgesses.
 Warden Sheridan read letter from the public utilities commits sion of this state inviting the board members to attend an informal hearing on an application for the meters, to be held in the state of flee building, Hartford next Mon- day afternoon.
 Burgess Leo Smigelski then said he thinks the board should go on record as opposing the meters, and made this g. motion. He added, If there is a shortage of water I think they should increase the capacity here. He said the poor man will have to pay higher rates under the meter system. He expressed the opinion the system now in effect is the most equitable that can be de- vised.
 Burgess Thomas Broder agreed with this and said that it was stated a number of years ago that there was enough capacity to take care of the situation for 100 years, and

Tn band will rehearse next Monday night and at thatt ime a date will be set for the second annual banquet of the band, to be held att he Im- manuel Lutheran church parlors in January. Ladies of that church will serve a turkey dinner
 Election of new officers for the band will be held in January. All members who have not been meas ured for their uniforms are urged to do so.
 Nissen Reelected
 Hans Nissen, ST., was reelected president of the local unit of the General Welfare association at a meeting in Pythian hall last night Others chosen were: P. August Johnson, vice president; Thomas Sweeney, secretary; Carl Holt, treasurer. The officers were ap- pointed delegates to a session of the state advisory board to be held in Simsbury December 18.
 Choose Officers
 Officers of the local Young Re- publican club were elected last night at meeting in Pythian hall. Henry Schildgen, 3rd, was chosen 'presi- dent, succeeding William A. Pain ter. Others elected were: Andrew Anderson, vice president; Myrtle HotchkisS, secretary; Grace Wood field, corresponding secretary; AL bert Mai, treasurer; Lorraine Hoad- ley, Walter Norwash, William Pain ter, Alice Solberg, Robert Schildgen Henry Erk, Theodore Stackpole Frank Hotchkiss and Henry Zwick members of the executice commit tee.
 Plans were completed for a ses- sion of the New Haven county or ganization' here Friday night.
 Hop Brook Matter
 Burgess Smigelski said with the present staff of regulars, Pelies Chief Gormley cannot arrange for policeman to be near Hop Brook school to protect children leaving school there at noon. MT. Smigelski said he thought the children should have police protection at 8 a. III. from 1l:30 to l, and from 3 to 4.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-12-11

asked, "Why the sudden changer"
 Warden Sheridan urged that there not De too much haste in the board taking stand, saying he felt the water company should have the right to state it's views. He ad- mitted he did not know whether residents here would profit from the installation of meters. He reminded the town has had very good service in the past from the water con- pany.
 Feels Poor Hit
 MT. Smigelski said he was passing his argument on what he read in the press. "A man who works in the office only gets his hands soiled but the men who work in the foun- dry get dirty all over and require. much more water for cleaning than the office workers" he said. He felt the man who can least afford it will have to pay more under the meter system. Burgess George Fellows asked how the meter system will affect the charge to the town and Warden Sheridan explained he has
