LET MOTHER DO TIT

Omaha, Neb. -(UPl- Tn the course of a hearing Judge Herbert RhoadeS of the juvenile court re- marked: "It's mistake for father to attempt to buy clothes for minor children. As e rule, e father will buy a red sweater with the sleeves too long. or outlandish in some re. spect. Husbands should give the money to the wives to do the shop ping. Clothes ordinarily bought by a father for a child will give 1t an inferiority complex and subject it to ridicule by its playmates."

SUPPORT PLEDGED
 TO REPUBLICANS
Independent Democrats Negotiating for 2 Places
 on Party Ticket

The Independent Democratic party, e factor in the last several city elections, was reported today virtually to have settled differences within It's ranks and ready to pre- sent a united front in the city elec- ton campaign this fall.
 Two years ago, at 6 disputed caucus, the party endorsed the en. tire regular Democratic ticket irl- stead of placing slate of its own in the field. It received the Small- est vote that 1t had ever boiled but enough to keep its place on the ballot for this years election. .
 Indications are that the party will aid the Republicans in this years election, with the c. o. P. recipro- eating by nominating William rip per" Conley, an Independent Dem ocrat, for city clerk. The Republi- cans will also renominate John J. Kearney, former Independent, for the board of education.
 A meeting of the Independent Democrats will be held soon, prob- ably within a week or whereabouts, to make plans for taking part in the campaign.
 The reported settlement includes an agreement on the town chair manship, which has had two claim ants. It is expected that James T. Hartley will be recognized as chair man, with Roger V. Connor with drawing. Both are understood to be opposed to Attorney John F.. Tobin, former leader of the party.

PROTEST
 CONTROL PLANS
Government Proposes to Spend $5,OOO,OOO for
 Dam in ThOmastOn

officials of three firms which suf- fered the greatest damage in the flood which followed the 1888 hur- ricane believe that dangers of the Naugatuck rivers overflowing can be averted by cheaper means than the $5,000,00 dam which army enc gineers recommend be constructed at Thomaston.
 Benjamin Chatfleld of the Gold smith, Chatheld O., Edmund J. Daly of M. J. Daly & Sons, Inc, and David c. Griggs, president of the Waterbury Farrel Foundry & Machine O., believe that the flood problem can be met by widening the river between Freight and Bank streets, by changing the piers and abutments of the Bank street bridge and by deepening the channel.
 Much of the flood damage is said to have been caused by the fact that the piers and abutynents of the bridge served to block the flow of water and send 1t pouring up over the banks and over the bridge.
 The army engineers, in a recent report to Congress, said that the dam at Thomaston would do much to prevent floods through the entire Naugatuck Valley south of 1t.

Summers Gone CD

Summer seemed reluctant to make way for autumn today, despite tho ushering in of the new season at 6:33 a. m. The temperature shot upward from the 5O-degree mark recorded at the moment when fall was ushe cred in, to q sweltering 84 At 100 o'clock, with prospects of Q still higher rise before the day was over.
 Despite the warmth of the day, however, the air seemed to carry in it some of the fresh- ness normally associated with early autumn, and the humidity was not progressively high.
 The Weather Bureaus pre- dIction was for cooler weather this evening, with considerable cI0udiness, and for fair and cooler weather tomorrow.

disposed of under the traditional policy of severely limited debate. But the issues of aid to the Soviet Union, of the desirability of inquiry into national defense progress and the necessity of the new request for funds can and undoubtedly will be discussed in the Senate where debate is unlimited.
 First Denied Russia Aid
 Senator Robert R. Reynolds, D., N. C., now chairman of the military affairs committee, offered to the first lend-lease bill an amendment to deny Its aid to the Soviet Union. Russians and Germans were allies then and the amendment was a ges- ture, at most. It mustered S5 votes, however, against 56 cast against 1t in a roll call which ran substan- tially along party lines. Twenty four Republicans and 10 Democrats voted with Reynolds. Two Repub- licans and 53 Democrats voted against the amendment. The odd vote represented a minor party.
 But to make a prohibition of aid to the Soviet Union stick, Congress would have to make it retroactive to cover the first lend-lease appro- priation and to forbid assistance in- directly through Great Britain. The lend-lease funds sought now are ex- pected to continue production into l943. The airplanes, tanks and guns which the Soviet Union now is seek ing here and in London are being produced with funds appropriated last March and from previous cash orders placed by Great Britain. Most of the war materials to be made immediately available to the Russians is expected to be diverted from British allotments rather than from defense equipment allotted to the United States.

7-Point Program For
 Post War Building
Architectural Forum Together With Panel of 200
 Advisory Editors Present Plan

New York, Sept. 23-A seven point program for buildings part in the postwar world is presented byb the Architectural Forum mag azine in its September issue in the first of a series of articles on the general subject Buildings Post War Pattern"
 Assisted by . panel of 200 ad- visory editors comprising archi- tects, engineers, public officials contractors, home developers, man. ufacturers, city planners, represen' tatives of realty firms and finan' cial institutions, and building ma terials dealers, this first article proposes immediate and simultan- eous action" by the building indus try on these fronts:
 1. NEW CONSTRUCTION: lower material costs, more effi- cent techniques, lower labor costs but at the same time greater employment and higher annual wages, and lower con- struction costs and rents.
 2-TAXES: taxation for municipal services rendered, based on income actually re- alized; reduction through inc creased efficiency of the public plant"
 3.-BU1LDING INDUSTRY integration, house cleaning,
 bigger business.
 ILLUMINATION or RES TAURANTS: uniform. building codes, cessation of racketeering and collision.
 5.-PLANNING: coordination of planning activitity of local, regional, and national agen- cies; realistice rezoning in line
 with anticipated population trends; establishment of a na- tional office of Planning Management; expansion of ex- isting planning facilities.
 6.-BLIGHT CURE: control of decentralization, urban re- construction, expansion of pub- lie recreational facilities, pro- vision for adequate parking areas, improvement and inte- grafton of transport facilities.
 7.--LAND: increased public
 ownership, reclassification of use, deflation or unreal valua-
 tions, and control of usage.
 The architectural Forum de- clares that adherence to this pro- gram will enable building to attair the following objectives:
 "As for the past, buildings post war pattern aims at the correction of mistakes already uade-at leas insofar as remedy Is physically pos sible and economically plausible.
 For the present, 1t define buildings role in the achievement of the more abundant Nfe'- marked improvement in the ap pearance and efficiency of the na ton, its regions, states, counties municipalities and rural areas: bet terment of the environment of al U. s. citizens, at work, at play, a home; widening of the opportunit; for private enterprise to develol national resources to the Sulles extent and at fair profit.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-09-23

some QueStlOnlng leBlSlhUOTS IS- marked that the aggregate of $12,- 895 100000 being sought approxi- mately represents the entire expect cd revenue of the federal govern ment next year, including additional taxes just voted by Congress and approved by MT. Roosevelt. But ad- ministration leaders are confident they will be able to obtain speedy house action and a favorable senate vote after sharp debate.
 Witnesses To Be Heard
 Philip Young of the Lend-Lease administration will be the first wit ness to be followed by Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard, Sec- retary of War Henry L. Stimson, Secretary of Navy Frank Knox, Gen. eral George c. Marshall, chief of staff, and Admiral Harold R. Stark, chief of naval operations. They or the President will reveal in more detail than such information reaches the public what is being produced for national defense and for the British and how fast. A deficiency bill of more than $l00,00o0o0 later will be added to the Lend-Lease bill.
 Opponents of his foreign policy have indicated to the house leader- ship that an amendment will be off, Iered to prevent any of the new fund from being used in behalf Of the So' viet Union. The leadership is con- lident of defeating such an amend- ment but is disturbed by the possi- bility that 1t may provoke dispute sufficiently spectacular to damage Soviet United States relations. Every effort will be made to sound-proof that part of the discussion.
 May Ask Showdown
 Some opponents of the admins tration have talked of making the new request for funds the occasion for a showdown whether national defense as a whole is developing satisfactorily. In opposition to the administration 1t is argued that Congress should not be asked for another blank check appropriation until 1t can be shown that the first $700O,000,000 has been spent with good results.
 Tho facts upon which that ques- ton would have to be determined, however, would deal intimately with actual production figures and in- mediate prospects. The administra- ton would have powerful support for the argument that to reveal them to the public or even to all members of Congress would jeopar- dize the national safety by letting too many persons in on vital secrets,
 If all goes well with the commit tee hearings. the new lend-lease proposal should be before the House in about 10 days where 1t could be
