America First
Warns II Will
Continue Fight
sr.cIaI 70 rHE pETRoIr TMKs

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Th'
Executive committee of the New
York chapter Of the America FRS
Committee today issued a state
'ment saying:
THE repeal OF that part OF
the Neutrality Act which forbade
Mr.. Roosevelt to send our ships
into war zones or belligerent
ports, does not greatly. change
the situation. The undersigned
executive committee of the New
York chapter announces that
America First had just begun
its fight against war.
I'VE call attention TO the fact
that the very close vote in the
House and Senate was a victory
for the opponents of the Presi-
dents foreign war policy.
WHITE HOUSE PRESSURE
Repeal of the Neutrality Act
was brought about mainly by
two things.
The first was the terrific
and improper pressure exerted
by the White House on Congress
generally, but especially on the
so-called puppet element which
is dominated by the White
House and does not feel free to
vote its conscience.
"The other was the torrent
of foreign and domestic propa-
ganda loosed throughout the
country in order to confuse the
people and brighten them into
acceptance of war.
Let every one remember
that. repeal or no repeal, we are
not at war. And we won't be
until both houses of Congress
declare war.
MILITARY ADVENTURE
what is happening now is not
war. 1t is an unauthorized,
illegal military adventure car
ried on by Mr.. Roosevelt at the
peoples expense. in defiance of
his pledges, the public will, and
the Constitution of the United
States.
I'VE call on all patriotic men
and women. who hate Dictator
ship and love their country more
than any other, TO intensity their
efforts TO make the President
and administration leaders keep
their pledges to keep America
out of war, declared or other
wise.
KEEP q. s. SHIPS SAFE
I'VE call on you to demand
that American ships shall be
kept out of war zones and
belligerent ports. Az
I'VE ask you to demand that
preparedness for defense shall
be pushed more vigorously, to
the end that our country shall
be impregnable against attack
by any foreign power or powers.
The administration has re-
peatedly promised you not to
send American boys overseas.
Unfortunately we are deal
ing with an administration that
has treated the people to a
series of misrepresentation and
broken promises. Seemingly it
has adopted the Communist
philosophy that all is fair in
dealing with the public, and that
the end justifies the means.
I'VE ask the men and women
OF America to demand an
American Congress, a Congress
made up of free, courageous
men,"

NEW YORK, Jan. %


XNIEEK-ENDING in Mayfair
w while they won't admit it
at the Metropolitan Oper
House, the idea of forcing New
York's "old guard" to part with
their boxes In the famed "dia-
mond circle" was a grave mis-
take. This season there has
been little or no social window

ances. And few Goelets, Astors,

Even Mrs. Cornelius Van

former box-owners TO lease a
box this season for all perform
ances, has difficulty in finding
familiar faces in the other
boxes-many of which 60 empty,

POLICE ORDERED
 TOENFORCELA LAW
Campaign Against Night Parking in Central Area
 Now Underway

All cars which parked in restrict ed streets for more than three hours have been ordered tagged by Police Supt. William J. Roach. The superintendent has issued the orders to all officers and patrolmen, that beginning this morning at < o'clock they tag violators of the all- night parking ordinance.
 Leaflets were distributed by pa- trolmen Wednesday, Thursday and Friday mornings, SO that motorists could become acquainted with the new ordinance. Supt. Roach stated that violators of this ordinance should be given tags, after they have received continual warnings not to park more than prescribed time in the restricted area.
 If motorists ignore the warnings, the superintendent said, after the cars are tagged, the autos will be lowed to garages with owners pay ing the towing charges. While a police check-up showed that g cars were parked after 1 o'clock Thurs day morning on Willow street along West Main street to Roseland avenue, yesterday counts showed that only nine were parked there.
 Capt. Frederick s. Hickey re- ported that while owners of cars have cooperated in not parking on designated streets which is included within a half-mile radius of the center. they have sought side streets incidentally creating new fire hazards.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-01-04

[ Appl gimately 200 men enrolled in the three units will be inducted into the army Monday, only a few months after formation of the two batteries. Though formed only last year the batteries are being called for training even ahead of the 102d infantry, of which most local Guard units are part. The 102d's induction has been postponed several times now being slated for late in Feb ruary.
 Batteries E and G, commanded by Capt. Grover c. Baldwin and Capt. John J. Egan respectively, are expected to be transferred from Fort Edwards after few months there It is reported that they will complete their training in either Texas or Georgia.
 Military regulations will be in ef- feet for the guardsmen after their mobilization. The men will march to and from the armory to cnetral res- taurants for their daily meals. They will not be required to sleep at the armory but any guardsman will be allowed to do so who wish.
 Days will be spent in packing kits in drilling, preparing equipment and getting all other preparations made for year away from home.
 Other units of the 208th, in Hartford and Bridgeport, will also be inducted into fedreaI service Mon- day.

LOCAL CASES IN
 SUPREME COURT
C. R. & L.COnpany Aps peaIs $746.z5 Assess
 ment Levied By City

The Supreme Court of Errors in Hartford will hear three Waterbury appeals next week. One of them is the appeal taken to test the validity of the city charter provision which allows the City of Waterbury to levy assessments against property owners for installation of sewers. The Con- necticut Railway and Lighting Com pany has taken the appeal.
 The c. R. & L. was assessed $746.25 when the city installed sewers in. front of the company's property on North Main street near the entrance to Lakewood Park. The company ape pealed when Judge Carl Foster of Superior Court upheld the right of the city to make assessments under the city charter.
 The other appeals are cases in which the Connecticut Light and Power Company is defendanS. Awards of 5000 were made to Helen Delmar of New Haven, and $2,000 to Louis Wargo of Naugatuck by SUI perior court jury, for damages to their summer homes in Oxford said to have been caused by flood waters from Stevenson dam.
