Driscoll, executive secretary of the Waterbury Brass Workers Union and member of the now dormant Waterbury Housing Au- thority. Public interest in housing should be whipped up, the mayor asserted.
 The committee arranging the forum was headed by Rev. pr. John c. Walker, who was one of the speakers. He was introduced by Mrs. Leila T. Alexander, director of the neighborhood house.
 The New Haven federal project has been operating with great suc- cess, Attorney Crawford said. In- terested persons in Waterbury, he said, should build fires under somebody's seats" until action to- ward improved housing conditions is secured.

B Building Permits
 Issued In January
II One-FamIy Houses Among New Activities Here
 Monthly Report of Inspector Hartley Reveals

Issuance of permits started off at a fast pace in January, but there was a decline during the second half of the month as bad weather, including snow and near-zeo wealth CT, hampered operations.
 The B permits last month in- cluded 26 for residential work and seven for non-reSidential work. The residential permits included Il for new dwellings nd IS for alterations of present dwellings, the total cost of alterations being estimated at $16,000 The total residential cost was $61, 700.
 The seven non-residential permits were for new buildings and altera- tions costing an estimated total of $29,375.
 The $91O75 total value for Jan- uary building operations compares with $146,5OO for January of last year, though only r permits were issued in that month. The differ ence is explained by the fact that a permit was issued in January, 1940, for the new Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, costing $116,00.
 In December, 1940, there were 6S permits issued, for work costing $227 ,035.
