 MT. Anderson stated emplaatical's that both MT. Durkin and he under. stod that the Town Hall committee had been given power to act on 1t Richard Parkinson also felt that tn was the sense of the authorization and Louis De Carlo indicated he hse understood it in that manner.
 However, in order to clarify mat ters, Mir. De Carlo made a motict authorizing the changes and it pass ed without opposition. William Ma iano and MT. Durkin were the ab, sent members.
 MT. Anderson explained there t no doubt the police chief needs er office for conferences and sa;c measurements of the police lock- room showed 1t would be impossini to make an office out of part of th-! room. He also pointed out. the sur. erintendent of streets does not say long in his cffce, being out on active jobs most of the time. His cls-iss employe, Miss Margaret Gilbert however. is in the superinsse E;ierst! office throughout the dey. Miss CT bert will TOW be in the boraust clerks office when the change is ef- fected.
 It is believed a counter formerly used by the ta xcollector who is ncy in another office, will be removed and the street department fi.cs placed there. There was suggeSt.cr that the vestibule near the ensran.e be narrowed to allow further ofiet space.
 Nearly Finished
 Welfare Superintendent Leo Ecul- ly reported that the Town Hal painting has been nearly completed now. He also reported three. of the vault doors had been installed. He said he had considered the idea of using one of the old doors in the basement to store secondary recort of his own and other departmen 5 and he was authorized by the board to ascertain the cost of such install lation and given power to act if he felt the cost were reasonable. He has asked the town of Beacon Falls, which is in the local probate dis trict, to pay half the cost of the new vault door used for the vault where probate records are kept, lfr. ScuI- ly reported. This cost to Beacon Falls would be about $l60, he said. No definite word has yet been re- ceived.

 RESIGNS POST
Dorothy Barwick Suc- ceeds Executive Red
 Cross Secretary Jan. 2

Naugatuck, Nov. 1.-The execu- tive committee of the Naugatuck Chapter of American Red Cross an- ncunced today with regret the resig- nation of Miss Marian J. Keefe as executive secretary because of ill., health. Miss Keeffe came to Naug- atuck in May 1881 and has served the Red Cross faithfully and eff1- ciently for over ten years. She will relirquiSh her duties when her Suc- cessor takes over after the first of the year.
 It is of interest to note that in the 24 years of the local chapters existence there have been only three secretaries. Miss Agnes Bentley, Mrs. Willis Geis and Miss Keeffe. Two of these served for over ten years each. All three were graduates of Sim mons College School of Social Work.
 Miss Dorothy Barwick was ap- pointed executive secretary of Naugatuck Chapter of American Red Gross at 8 special meeting of the executive committee today. Miss Barwick will assume her new duties on January 2, 1922.
 Miss Barwick. who was born in Naugatuck, is the daughter of Mir and Mrs. George E. Barwick, of Wal nut street. She graduated from Naugatuck high school in 1922. She attended Salem, Mass, Teachers College in 1922-23 and the Connec- ticut Training School for Nurses and the Yale School of Nursing from 1923 to 1925. She received her secre-s tarial training at Perry Secretarial School in 1925-26. From 1925 to 1929 she held various Secretarial posi- tionS.
 Tn 1929 she went with the Church of the Covenant in Cleveland, which is the largest Presbyterian Church in Ohio, in a general Secretarial capacity. From 1887 to the present she has been secretary to the Rev. Philip S. Bird, D. O., pastor of this church. She comes back to Nauga- tuck with a wealth of training and experience to take over her new duties at the Red Cross chapter house which have increased tre- mendously in recent months due to the large amount of contact work that must be done for the Nauga- tuck boys who are on duty in the armed forces of the United States.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-11-11

Naugatuck, Nov. il - The chief of police is expected to have a new office soon as result of a vote of last nights meeting of the board of welfare. The board voted to transfer the clerk of the superintendent of streets, from the present office of the street superintendent in the basement of the Town Hall, to part of the office of the borough clerk.
 It also voted to let the chief of police have for an office the present office of the street superintendent. The Town Hall committee, which recommended these changes, was given power to make necessary ar- engagements with the advice of the welfare department superintendent. All this foregoing action was taken on a motion by Louis De Carlo.
 This change will mean now that the borough clerks office will be used, in part at least, by four off, cials, the borough clerk, assitant borough clerk, clerk to the street superintendent and the warden. AAONNFSAs OAAO haAOCAA ltoCo 1LISo OWil office, off the borough clerks office, for most of his business.
 The Town Hall Committee is con- posed of Richard Durkin and How ard c. Anderson. MT. Durkin was not present at last nights session. MT. Anderson told the board that the Town Hall committee had agreed on the change and said he understood the committee had been given power to act, that no vote con- firming the recommenda tion would be necessity by the entire board.
 Disagree On Minutes
 Borough Clerk Charles F. Daly, who acts as secretary of the well fare board, said the minutes did not show that the committee was given power to act. He pointed out that according to the minutes, the vote at the August meeting, which was the last previous one where MT. An- derson had been present, was that the Town Hall committee should consider an office for the chief of police. In September the board re- ferred to the Town Hall committee the idea of the street superintend- ent's office being moved to the street

BOROUGH GIRL
 BACK AT HOME
Doris Jeanne Weaving Found in Winsted After
 Losing Her Memory

Winsted, Nov. 11-A tall, blonde girl who appeared at police head quarters early Sunday morning, cold shivering and apparently suffering from loss of memory, was taken to her home in Naugatuck about noon when her grandfather cened for her after police had traced llel' family through a Social Security card found in her purse.
 The girl approached Policeman Frank Boulet shortly after a. m. in front of the police headquarters on Main street and asked him the name of the town. Replying to her question the policeman and William Cheever of 319 Main street, who was passing by asked her several ques- tions about herself and where she had been. To these, according to police, she merely replied. T don't know"
 Brought to the police station, she told police she was hungry. After food was given her, she fell asleep. The girl was bareheaded and carried a brown pocketbook and a book. Examining the contents of the bag, Policeman Boulet found card bear ing the name of Doris Jeanne Weaving, of 95 Coen street, Nauga- tuck. This information was immedi- ately sent out on the state police teletype from the Canaan barracks and within few hours the girls family in. Nausgutck communicated with police here. Her grandfather, whose name the police did not learn, appeared at headquarters about noon for the girl. He told Superintend- ent of Police William E. Mulcahy that she was suffering from an eye affliction and that this condition had resulted in her loss of memory on previous occasions.

CARMODY PLEADS
 FOR DEMOCRACY
Attorney World War Mem- Orial Speaker; Large
 Crowd Sees Parade

Naugatuck, Nov. 11-Democracy of itself will not sustain. It is in being because it was fought for and to keep it in being it mus tbe guard ed and fought for, Attorney 1e. ence Carrnody, clerk of the borough court, said today at the ArmiStice day ex- ercises at the World War memorial.
 A large crowd viewed the colorful parade which was held prior to the exercises. Attorney Carmody re- minded that on the original Armis- tice day there was much rejoicing as the United States gloritied III the victory of its sons, and asserted the spirit and bravery of the U. s. forces turned the tide of battle in the World War.
 We are indeed proud of the heri- tage that is ours," he said. we celebrate again the day that saw the death of those forces which then threatened our form of government and way of living, he said. He point ed out great sacrifices were made by this country then and asserted i've are today a truly great nation be- cause we dared to fight for freedom and liberty, because we could not sit back and ignore the walls of Belgium and other weaker nations"
 Because of the will and spirit of our men we enjoy and live our lives as free men and not as instruments of a militaristic machine, he said. What would have happened if those sacrifices had not been made, If the forces then at large had won?" he queried. The question may still arise again for today tyranny and bru- tality are rampant and ideologies of brute force and slavery are being thrust upon the world by ground of bandits and international gang sters, he asserted.
 We are again faced with the same problem that beset us before, he add ed. He reminded that then as now our ships are being sunk. We are again in a critical period in our his- tory and we are again confused and bewildered, he said. That in itself is a threat. We should on this anniver- Sary show to the world united front and should have confidence in our government and our president. We should be prepared to make per- sonal sacrifices. Those who wish to enjoy the rewards of democracy must be ready to accepts its respon- abilities and indeed to follow in the light and spirit of the men of 1918, whom we honor today, he con- cluded.
 Police, veterans, their auxiliaries, Boy and Girl Scouts and the Nauga- tuck high school band participated in the exercises. Rev. Arthur F.. Lewis and Rev. Edward R. Hance offered prayers at the World War memorial exercises and Warden Leo Brophy read the rollcall. Herbert Johnson was master of ceremonies.
 Joseph c. Raytkwich, Jr, was par- ade marshal. A whistle was blown at Il a. m. and work stopped for one minute.
