Pooling Aid
To Defense Plan
In America
BY w. w. CHAPLIN
international News Service National
Defense ExperD

NEW YORK, May 81. - Mass
production of many key items Of
national defense will be attained
this Summer, and one Of the chief
reasons that this is possible is the
initiative of private industry in
pooling" resources Of men, ma
terials and machines.
The community pooling system
is sweeping the country after
thorough proof by test in pioneer
ing towns where industrial lead
ers realized that defense urgency
was too great to permit reliance
on the slow process of constructing
an entire network of defense
plants from the ground up before
production could begin.
During the first year OF the in
tensive American Defense program
Congress appropriated. or COM
mitted itself TO government eX-
penditure Of approximately 30
billion dollars for defense. But
during that year defense chiefs
we're only able 10 spend five bill
lions because insufficient supplies
Of materials, machines and trained
men were readily available.

WAITING FOR SYSTEM

Yet those supplies were avail
able, in large part, waiting for
some system which could bring
them together and put them TO
use. That system was found IN
the pooling program which now
has the hearty blessing OF the Of
flee of Production Management
and is being energetically sold
TO industrial leaders throughout
the country by the National AsSo-
citation of Manufacturers.
Pres. Walter d. Fuller or the
NAM. now touring the country IN
the interests of industrial pooling,
predicts that there will be 1000
community defense pools by July
/. When he started his tour IN
May there were only 184, but they
had proven the system sound.
Before leaving. Fuller reported
10 President Roosevelt that a sur
vey of $4,000 plants not previously
surveyed showed that only % per
.cent-xete .cne aesd -in-aefensa-werk
or any kind. The $1,000 machines
in those plants. he added. had
100000 machine hours day to
offer TO defense production.

RAYTKWICH WANTS PROPERTY SURETY
Republican Warden Nom. inee Believes Plan Would
 Save Town Money

Naugatuck. April 90 Joseph 0 Raytkwich, Republican nominee for warden, said last night at rally in the Millville library that he had been criticized on his stand or water meters, but asserted he fell that although the idea of meters tt measure use of water here is good that the rate should be coiiimensur. ate with that In other coinrnuIli' ties, and added he knows that th( rate here is about double what I is In three or four towns he coult name. Most families. feel the new rate is much higher than 1t wa! formerly, he said.
 He declared a survey of property and sewers here to see whether all persons who should be paying taxes or assessments are doing so might save the town some money. He pointed out that a town in this state saved large sum of money some time ago by making such Q survey. He felt that in fairness to those who do pay taxes, any who don't pay them now but who have taxable property should pay like the rest. He reminded some may be connected with mains who are not paying their assessments.
 He reiterated that he was op- posed to a school being closed with out first giving residents of the sec- ton affected the right to vote on the matter, pointing out some may have built homes in that vicinity to be near a school, and then sud- denly find the school has been closed.
 He said he has heard consider able criticism" of the schools in several respects, from the stand- point of safety and also on the standards of our schools. The school department should have enough money to operate properly so Naugatuck schools will rank with any in the state, he said.
 He indicated safety equipment of the best type IS still lacking in sey- eral schools and something should be done before something happens, he said.
 ITO be progressive. we are advo- eating better police protection for the outside districts through use of the motor patrol" MT. Raytkwich declared He reminded the Repub- lican party is advocting noia.politi. cal appointments of qualified men to the police and fire departments because the chiefs of those depart ments are held responsible for their departments and occasionally get questionable material through poll tical appointments. te,sc,
 He criticized the Democratic ad- ininistration as not being forward looking. and said that any intelli- gent family will plan and lay aside for the future, and reminded that the town is just one big family.

hard, and saying that 1t is one of the most important elections the town has ever seen. He frankly stat de that MT. Brophy, Democratic nominee. is probably the strongest candidate his party could get, and is a capable man, and warned that if Mr. Brophy wins, 1t will take a long time. to dislodge him. "Today Is the time, not tomorrow, do 1t now" he said in conclusion.
 Henry Zwick. registrar of voters, referring to MT. Nygren's criticism of the town committee, said T agree with him but he did not put 1t strong enough. I criticize the tax payers and not Just the town com mittee. Most taxpayers don't know the procedure at meetings of the borough board and 1t should be well worth their while to attend these sessions, he said. He asserted the Democrats are getting frightened by the Republican show of strength.
 Raps Burgesses w.
 Acting Warden Leo Smigelski as. serted the Democratic adrninistra- ton would not do anything progress sive as two Democratic burgesses who have been on the board will be on 1t again, and these bufgesses have delayed things time and again, he said.
 He characterized some of the gang in power' as having ''so lit- tie conscience" and said 1t took eight months to get the Bridge street playgruond approved and now 1t is only about half done. He criti- cized some of the Democrats for what he called "their contemptuous attitude toward their duties as pub lie officials" tls
 He asserted that the cost of main- tenance of street department equip ment is 65 percent of the value of that equipment, saying 1t Is valued at Sl4,000 and $8,O00 is spent an- nually for taking care "of these pieces of junk that have outlived their usefulness" He asserted the piece of fire apparatus bought sev- eral years ago from Brookline, Mass. was worthless in the first place and now is good for nothing but junk. He said some WPA projects are only half-finished and others are not properly finished. Conditions just stink. he said.
 Edward Gerber, nominee for town clerk, said Q group in power for sev- en years Is likely to get into rut and see only one side of a thing. Henry Ford did not stick with the Model T machine, he said, but had his engineers design Q stream m-line car. He said the Republican candi- dates should be elected to lift the town out of its rut. with the WPA help which has been given here, the tax rate is still fairly high. he said.
