NO DECISION ON
 HIGHWAY CASE Commissioner Wnl. J. Foz Appears Here as Witness
 for Defense

State Highway Commisslone, William J. Cox testified on fIls stand in superior court yester3ay in hearing on an application fos a temporary injunction introduced by Harriet c. Fleming of Woodbllry and others, against the highway head.
 Following the hearing of evi. dence, Judge John A. Cornell re- served decision, pending the fiI1ha of briefs by counsel
 The applicants, all residents esus Woodbury, seek court order e- straining the highway department from proceeding with constructlbu on route 6, along the WoodhiiTy- Candy Hook road, according to plans drawn up for the project. Y
 The proposed highway imprope- ments con~iSt of purchasing suffi- cient right-of-way to construct a four-lane road, although at pres- ent the department will build only two lanes. Commissioner COX testi- fled that 1t has been the policy O4 C1AC OCk}t1A tLtkC11t OU putCA1doG L101G land than was immediately neeced, against future time when the right-of-way would be utilized for the construction of additional lanes. The que tien of adequate finances, he pointed out, very often made 1t impossible to complete the projecEiu its entirety at once. x
 The applicants hold that the lsl1e of the proposed road cuts through a barn on the Fleming property, and that they were awarded the sum of $2,731 for this by the state. Counsel for the plaintiffs Atty. John H. Cassidy, contends that improper notice was given, inasmuch as all heirs of the Fleming estate were not notified. Later the highway de- pertinent requested more land for. its road expan-ion program.
 The plaintiffs maintain that the state can take the condemnation only land that is needed for high way purposes.

Haven ard New Britain as evidence that combining of grades is per- fectly good pedagogy.
 Comsr. Graicerstein pointed out that the same situation exists in other schools in the city, and Dr. Condon said that four grades are combined under one teacher at Bucks Hill and East Mountain schools. The number of pupils per teacher is less now at the Abbott school, the superintendent said, than the average for the city.
 Comsr. Hitchcock said that if grades are to be combined, it would be far better to follow this policy for the upper grades, when the children have learned how to con- centrate under difficulties, than in the lower grades, where it is es- sential for them to have the best possible studying conditions while they are mastering the fundamen- talS.
 Comsr. GraicerStein asked that the situation be studied further, to see whether there were any parti- cular circumstances which would warrant the appointment. Without further information, he said, he could not vote against the policy adopted by the superinter dent. If the school deserved special consid- eration, he said, he would vote for the appointment.
 You wouldn't vote for 1t under any circumstances, and you know it," Comsr. Kearey retorted.
 On Mrs. Hitchcock'S motion, a vote was taken on the appointment, and defeated 5-4, on party lines. Comsr. Graicerstein again proposed an investigation to determine whether an additional teacher was needed at Abbot school more than anywhere else, and this motion was carried without opposition.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-11-11

The board, however, adopted un- animously a motion made by Con1sr. Perry Graicerstein for investigation of the conditions at the Abbott school, to determine whether they warrant ed such an appointment more than did any other school in the city.
 Members of the delegation pro- tested, as they have at previous meetings of the board, the combin- ing of second ard third grades at the school under one teacher. That condition exists in every school in the city, I think" Pres. Thomas P. Ashton replied, and drew prompt retort from Comsr. Helen Hitch cock that neither Driggs nor Kings bury schools had different grades combined.
 Mrs. Hitchcock went on to say that the standards in the local schools are not as high as they should be ''The trouble" she said, starts not in the high schools, but in the grade schools" She aSesrted em- phatically that econohy should not be practiced in Waterbury at the expense of the city's children.
 One of the mothers in the dele gation insisted that she would not send her daughter to secord grade in Abbott school next year unless the situation were remedied, but would send her to St. Thomas school or private school.
 MT. Ashton explained to the members of the delegation that the City of Waterbury has more teachers per pupil than almost any other community in New England and that it is this high proportion of teachers which makes the cost of education in the city so high. The school board, he said, has no power to discharge any teacher as long as she has any pupils to instruct Consequently, Comsr. Ashton ex- plained, the board has adopted the policy of combining classes when ever 8 teacher resigns for any req son.
 The delegation responded that they were interested only in the situation III thelr own school, anc that they felt their children were not receiving the proper opportunity for education. Mrs. Hitchcock sup. ported their stand, and said witt reference to the majority of tht board, All you think about i money, money, money"
 Dr. Condon explained to the mem bers of the board that the doub ling of grades under one teacheI does not mean that each gradt receive half the normal amount ot instruction, as the elementary grades are divided into sections fol group instruction under ary cir cumStances. He cited the fact that mixed grades are common practice in the training schools connected with Teachers Colleges at New

Dr. Walker Praises
 Y Work During War
Prisoners Most Hopeless Group of Human Beings in
 World Claims Second Congregational Pastor

T am asking you to give that the Y. M. c. A. may continue its work among the prisoners of war, one of the most helpless and in many cas- es the most hopeless group of hu- man beings in the world, paWns in the ghastly game of war, pawns swept from the board at the be- ginning of the match and tossed aside to wait their sorry fortune at some future time", stated Rev. Dr. John c. Walker, Second Congrega- tional church pastor Sunday morn ing in his sermon, "An Armistice Day Appeal.
 Dr. Walker said in part:
 'In a time like this, for causes like these, we are not afraid to ap- peal to a church like ours. We take some pride In this church, it's tra- dition, its spirit, its record down the years. Not many weeks since at a church gathering in which had a minor role, I met minister among those taking part who seemed a stranger until I learned his name. His name has been familiar to me for many years and one of his books, which had most remarkable sale, is a classic in its field. When we were introduced he asked me where I came from and when I replied his face lighted up. 'fOn, yes" he said, '"The Second Church, Waterbury. I have heard of the generosity of your church" Those words warmed my heart for many day and that tribute of praise fingers with me still. It has been said that there are centripetaI churches whose motion Is largely a matter of spinning around on the axis of their own comforts and concerns. There are other churches whose motion is cen trifugal, churches which are con- stantly flying of on glorious tan- gents.
 sTt is my faith that if we are expected to raise the matter of $2,- 400 as our fair share of the $1 ,0Oo,- 900 asked of the Congregational Christian churches we are of mind to raise the money. The Federal Council of Churches has called upon all the denominations to do their fair share and to greatly increase and multiply the amounts raised last year in the face of the vastly increased demand and the mount ing tragedy. I think l was correctly informed when was told that last year our Methodist friends raised $1 GOO, 900 in one day for the cause of war relief. Our Episcopal, Bap- tist, Presbyterian and other Chris tian friends are all being asked to give in proportion to their numbers and their means. The Christians of America are the most privileged peo- ple in the world today. To whom is given much shall be required.
 "As Christians we are under a compulsion to give and to share in unstinted measure. And those who think that essential Christianity consists merely or even mainly m sabbath worship and a matter of live and let live are very sadly mis- taken. I read for our Scripture Les son this morning Jesus description of the Last Judgment. Those who were accounted faithfully were not judged on the basis of how eloquent ly they had prayed, how reyerent-
