NO AK TO CRlND'
 CLAIMS BAUMMER
Not Seeking Nomination to Keep Relatives in Office,
 Asserts Candidate

Naugatuck, April 4 - Edward F. Baummer, ST., candidate for the Democratic nomination for warden, today announced he will not enter a slate of delegates in the third ward cauclises tonight because he feels he will be supported by whichever fac- tion wins in the caucus.
 Last night MT. Baummer gave @ radio talk in which he said he has undertaken no Thigh pressure cam- paign to badger registered voters in- to my camp" and said he has no aX to grind He said he Is not seeking the nomination in order to get or keep his relatives in some public office. He asserted he is a candidate solely because his many friends have urged him to keep up the high standard which the office had dur ing the tenure of Warden John J. Sheridan.
 My friends know, and you know, that a business man is the best man to hold the office. I am a business man. am also student of political science, and because of my close as- sociation with MT. Sheridan dur ing the past six years, am thorough ly familiar with his advanced ideas on borough government. Therefore am the logical man for the job."
 He claimed some of the "out- standing candidates" are enemies of MT. Sheridan. A number of promises have been made, MT. Baummer as- serts, but T make no rash promises to you. know that Q lot of prom ises turn out to be mere bubbles in the air when the time comes to keep them"
 Promises Tax Cut
 He declared T will not use this public office to further my own ends and I will, without favoring any sec- ton of the power, do all in my power to preserve the high effi- ciency which the office knew under our last warden. And I will lower your tax rate at least two mills.
 He said that no other candidate said, as did he, that If defeated they would still fight for the elec- ton of the Democratic party. "It is a known fact that Q breach exists in the party and these men are do- ing nothing to heal 1t. Would 1t not be far better idea to nominate me and patch up these differences in this way am the only man who ca nbring the party into the close- ly knit unity that is so necessary for success on election day." MT. Baummer said.

Naugatuck, April 4. - There are 721 children studying in Naugatuck high school now and 115 in the Futile House, total of 836, and the number who work in the high school is probably the lowest since in the early sos, Supt. of Schools Har- old E. Chittenden told the school board yesterday afternoon.
 The total high school enrolment of 836 on March 31 was drop of 16 from the figure at the first of March and a decrease of 77 from the 913 figure of a year ago. Improved employment conditions have caused @ number to leave school after they reach the age of 16.
 The maximum that the freshman class of the next school year can be is 230 or @ decrease of between 30 or 40 from last year, and 1t is likely that not all of the 230 will enter high school here. At present there is a very large junior class, 223 so that next years senior class will not be far below the freshman class in total. There will be ITO being grad- uated this year from high school, 1t is expected. The decrease in enroll ment and the use of the Futile house for high school students will give further relief from congestion in the high school proper, Supt. Chittenden said, but 1t has not yet reached a point where rooms can be combined.
 MT. Chittenden gave @ break down of repairs on school buildings for the past fiscal year. It included: high school, $2,806 of which $l,774 was for stair treads; plumbing, $365, electrical work, $202; Salem school, $1496, including purchase of fire pots and domes: Central avenue school, $1,777, much of this being for in- stallation of the cafeteria and car- penter work connected with this. Circulators were put on heaters there with good results.
 Rubber avenue, $827, including painting and heating with two fur naces being overhauled; Beebe street, SIS this being needed for getting the school in shape for use as a selective service headquarters; Oak street, $l,204, including paint ing and shingling; Hop Brook, $326, with the largest item being plumb ing repairs to the heaters, and @ new grate with headers having been secured for this school; Prospect street, $4l1, including work in con- nection with the school cafeteria Futile Place, $2094, of which $41a was for carpentry; $205 for electri- cal work, $l60 for plumbing, STAG for heating; $429 for fire escape and $100 for general repairs.

False Economy Here

think 1t would and hoped it would not.
 MT. Kenishea asserted that the next time in such case the child might not get well. He said Sup erintendent Chittenden had told the Pond Hill group in the past that nothing of that nature would occur but 1t did. "Why try to kid us tax payers along?," he said. Emil Mannweiler, board chairman, said he didn't think MT. Chittenden meant to convey that 1t would be 100 per cent perfect plan and Kenishea said he got that impress sion.
 Tn regard to economy by closing the school, MT. Mannweiler said that the board feels in the long run 1t will be economy. "How do you account for the fact that the cost of educat- ing children here is going up all the time when enrolment is decreasing? I should think the cost would come down proportionately," MT. Kenishea said.
 MT. Mannweiler said it probably will in the course of time. "Then our grandchildren will probably benefit by what Superintendent Chittenden is doing now," Kenishea declared. It will not be as long as that. MT. Mannweiler smilingly answered.
 Made Improvements
 When MT. Kenishea said there should be a time limit for such economy to develop, MT. Chittenden pointed out that 1t has been the policy of the board in the past few years to make Improvements which offset any savings which the de- partment fight have made in other directions. It is only six months since Pond Hill school was closed, he reminded. There is also the problem of absorbing certain teach CTS in the school system and as teachers drop off, @ savings will be shown in this respect, he indicated.
 When MT. Kenishea said, you are saying you are carrying along more teachers than yo uhave use for" MT. Chittenden denied this but said there were more elementary teachers than there were school rooms. He added that not as many substitutes have been used in the present school year as in the past. The discussion on this ended shortly after.

sic shed, $22; Millville, $475, includ- ing new shutters and the painting work done before the school was closed; Pond Hill, $S.75; Groveside, $8.29; athletic field, $502, with a wo- mans dressing room and a storage building being built there and parks $40.8l.
 It Is expected that suggestion by George Kelly, board member, that policeman be secured for high school dances. will be adopted by the superintendent Tt was left to his discretion. MT. Kelly report ed complaints had been made on the conduct of out-of-town persons attending the dances and he felt the presence of uniformed policeman would tend to keep such persons in check. He said liquor is appearing at dances through out-of-town per- sons. Chairman Emil Mannweiler and supt Chittenden approved the suggestion.
 MT. Chittenden said the financial report of the department will not be ready for at least a week because some bills outstanding have not yet been sent in. He said the system ad- vocated by auditors here year ago has been installed mad entails much work. The department has to keep two sets of books, he pointed out because the borough fiscal year runs from April to Tpril 1, and the To- cal department also has to report to the state, whose fiscal year goes from July to July 1. The school year is from June 1 to June 1.
 The board decided to delay call- ing for bids on the school coal sup ply until the May meeting.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-04-04

Naugatuck, April 4. = Despite the fact that Joseph Kenishea of Pond Hill charged at a meeting of the school board yesterday afternoon that the closing of Pond Hill school has not produced savings to any extent and that. the welfare of the children is not what the committee representing Pond Hill had been told 1t would be, the board of educa- ton did not act upon his request that the school be reopened. It gave no indication 1t would so act in the future.
 MT. Kenishea told the board of a seven-year-o girl from the Pond Hill district who two months ago went to Central Avenue School one day and was found too i'll to stay in the classroom and was sent home. She was made to walk three miles to her home in freezing weather, MT. Kenishea said, in spite of the fact that the taxpayers pay the cost of expenses of cars for three officials of the school department he as- serted.
 "The tot was too i'll to stay in school, but not too i'll to walk three miles," MT. Kenishea said. He indicated the welfare of the Pond Hill children would not be improved in that manner. MT. Kenishea said that although the bus situation there had improved, 1t is not what 1t should be and will not reach this url- til sharp curves in that section are improved. He contended It k not fair for the board to jeopardize the children under these conditions and asserted 1t Is @ false sense of econ- omy. =.
 Superintendent Chittenden said between 50 and 75 sick children are transported home in the course Of a school year in officials cars and asserted, T don't want the impress sion to get around that neglect pre- yails. "Such an incident as MT. Kenishea mentions Is bound to hap pen tn a system of our size, he said.
 He indicated a mistake had been made, but reminded that as 8 rule if child Is i'll, the school de- partment provides transportation. MT. Kenishea said he understood some teachers have passed a remark they are not instructed what to do undeg those circumstances.
 MT. Chittenden explained that teachers are instructed that all such matters be reported to the pr!nci. pal of the school and handled through the principal.
 Fears Reoccurrence
 MT. Kenishea remarked, "We have no assurance 1t won't happen again If 1t happened once, 1t can happen again." MT. Chittenden said he didn't
