Of the committee, will be in the form
of a bill entitled Federal Reports
Act of 1884," which is intended to
coordinate federal reporting services,
eliminate duplication and reduce the
cost of such services, and minimize
the burdens of furnishing reports and
information to the government upon
business enterprises, and especially
small business enterprises.
Senator Murray stated that this pro-
posed measure arises out of the large
number of complaints filed with the
committee by small businessmen from
all parts of the country concerning
the duplication and multiplicity of
reports required of them by federal
agencies. He said that in its study
of this small business problem the
committee found that there was I'M
animous agreement upon the part of
governmental agencies and the Presi-.
to simplify and eliminate these ex-
cessive burdens on business enter
prises.
In his communication to members
of the committee the senator stated
that he as well as all of the members
of the committee had carefully read a
great many of the letters sent to the
committee by small businessmen, and
found these letters very helpful in
aiding the committee in determining
what problems it ought to make a

PRINCIPALS NAMED BY CIVIC THEATER
Large Cast to Be Chosen for Presentation of The
 Fireman's Flame

Eleanor Culhane, Charles OCon- nor, Simon RabinowitZ and Eleanor Stull, head the large cast assembled by the Civic Theatre for its annual non subscription production of "The Fireman's Flame,' at the Wa terbury Women's Club on February 9th and 7th. Not since 1881, when the Civic Theatre filled Jacques Theatre for three nights with "Un- der the Gaslight," has s'lch a collec- ton of heroes, heroines, villains and villainesses gathered nightly to re- hearse the goings on, which are part and parcel of the old melodrama, typical of the Gay Nineties.
 Featured in this gay musical show, will be large dancing and singing chorus, which will introduce eight brand new songs written expressly for ''The Fireman's Flame" by Ted Fetter and Richard Levine, noted musical comedy songsters. The plot of the melodrama, which deals with the rivalry between the volunteer fire brigades during the Gay Nine ties, requires many elaborate scenes and countless costumes and special effects, which the Civic Theatre plans to supply without stint.
 Andrew Masone and Arlene Cof- fey, well known to local audiences, carry on part of the romantic in- terest of the play and Richard Law Tor and Herbert Carlberg appear in comedy character roles. Janet Hines, Thomas Summa, Clarissa Deming and Anthony Rodgers will play other principal roles in the production. The play is under the direction of Robert BardWeu.

Worry UnwarrantedIn
 Accumulation of Gold
Former Senator LOnergan Declares Flow of Metal Re- fleets Superior Financial Strength of United States

sought-after currency in the world. We regret that other na- tions are unable to keep their gold but we do not propose to un- stabilize our own currency be- cause of this situation. The gold flow to this country is simply reflection of the superior finan- cial strength of our own country. It is a reflection of the greater financial security that exists here above what exists in other coun- tries. The remedy for this gold flow is for other countries to make themselves safe places for capital. Unfortunately these conditions as the Secretary of the Treasury has said-are not likely to obtain until peace is restored and inter antional cooperation put in place of international chaos. For these policies we have worked and when these policies prevail we may look towards a discontinuance of the present flow of gold to the United States and, in all probability, to an outflow.
 Enhanced Opportunities
 "Our investors will once again invest their funds abroad-not be- cause of the scarcity of opportun- ity at home but because of greatly enhanced opportunities for sound and profitable investments in other lands. And finally our tour ists will spend hundreds of mil- lions more in foreign countries"
 "These are the developments which will automatically and gradually direct the flow of gold away from the United States. These are the developments upon which we must concentrate. We must concentrate on the promo tion of further recovery here and peace and security abroad not in order to correct the gold situati ton, but because prosperity, peace and security are in themselves the supreme ends of governmental policy. That their attainment will also solve the worlds gold problem is only a by-product, but an im- portant one"
 ''It is the mark of our good financial housekeeping that we have managed, during a period of great world upheaval, to keep do- mestic business progressing and to keep our price level stable"
 Cost of Living
 "The rise in wholesale prices has been negligible over year of war, from an index number of 75 in August 1889 to IT in August 1940. The cost of living index has remained stable. In terms of both wholesale prices and the cost of living. the dollar today buys about one-f1fth more than before the depression"
 "These facts constitute adequate proof of the sound position of our

Rev. Michael F. Heating, pastor of SS. Peter and Paul church, in answer to a query about further elaboration of remarks made by him last Sunday in his sermon re- garding local burleSque shows, told the Democrat this morning that no mention was made of the promoters nor no belief expressed that the promoters will offer a show much different than the burlesque shows of New York.
 Father Heating added that he merely stated that he had the ut most confidence in Mayor Vincent A. Scully, States Attorney William B. Fitzgerald and Superintendent of Police William J. Roach, and thought they would, according to the high ideals of their religion and regard for public decency, be most vigilant in their supervision of the shows.

 Washington, D. O., Jan. 16 = The |flow of foreign gold to this country in recent years, ''is simply a refiec- |tion of the superior financial strength" of the United States, Former U. s. Senator Augustine Lonergan of Connecticut said today. Commenting on a recent editorial in The Waterbury Democrat which commented on the fact that the U. 'S. now has 30 per cent of the worlds monetary gold, MT. Loner- gan declared that the accumulation pf so much gold here is not any cause for worry.
 The countries "loudeSt in talking about the uselessness of gold" are doing everything in their power to ket hold of the metal, MT. Lonergan Baid, and each of the major bellig- Prents is watching it's own and its Enemies' gold supplies like a hawk"
 MT. Lonergan issued the following tatement:
 Some of our citizens, who un- derstand the strength of our na- tional finances and the soundness of the dollar, are now concerned that the world confidence in our currency has resulted in this country receiving too much gold.
 IA Billions!
 During the last years we have acquired about $14-billions of gold from abroad.
 "To hear some persons talk about this gold flow, you would think that gold was the most valueless metal in the world. Do they think that the soundnesS of our currency has nothing to do with the ambunt of gold that backs it? The plain fact of the matter is that even those nations who have been loudest in talking about the useleSsneSS of gold have displayed tremendous eagerness and rapacity to get hold of it. The occupied countries of Europe are being turned upside down by sol- diers whose first instructions are to get hold of any gold that they can find. Everyone of the major belligerents is watching its gold supply like hawk and watching its enemies gold supplies in just the same way. Every serious minded student of gold has scof- fed at the idea that it will ever cease to have value
 Admittedly, the United States how has more than its share of the worlds gold. But there has been no method proposed of stop ping this gold flow which would hot have worse consequences for the prosperity of the United States than to continue taking the gold, The United States now has moro security than any other coulltry in the world. The United States dollar is now the most
