RADIO BROADCAST
 ON BOND ISSUES
Alderman Reiner Opposes Trade School, Water
 Supply Expansion

Arguments for and against city bond issues to finance water supply improvements and @ contribution toward a state trade school were heard, during a forum broadcast over Station WATR last night. Mayor Vincent A. Scully and Con. troller Thomas M. Conlon spoke In favor of the issuance of $2,100, 1000 in bonds; Alderman Joseph Reiner, Republican leader of the board, spoke in opposition; and State Sen- ator John L. Sullivan of New Brit ain, a neutral, explained the pro- cedure necessary to secure legisla- tive approval for the plan.
 Alderman Reiner declared himself against selling $l00,000 in bonds for a trade school and $2,000, ,0000 in bonds for water supply expansion. The trade school, he said, should be either built by the state or hous- ed Iii a now unoccupied school building. He said he was strongly opposed to water bonds, and as- serted that the cost should be met by taxation.
 Mayor Scully said that inspec- tions by the state board of educa- ton had shown that no local school building was suitable. Controller Conlon stated that the bond plan would allow the city to defer start of payments until 1853, when the annual amount needed for debt service will have been reduced.

MEN IN SERVICE
 SHOULD REGISTER
State Labor Staff Urges All to Protect Future Positions

Waterbury men inducted into the 102d Infantry, second battalion, this office in order that we may file should make every effort to contact complete record of their previous employment" Mrs. Mary Dewey manager of the Waterbury branch of the Connecticut State Employ. ment Service at 123 Bank street stated today.
 Many of the boys forget that our bureau has established a branch de- voted to the future welfare of the boys when they return from army service" she added. We want en- ployment records of all the men, SC that efforts may be made to place them when they return from army service"
 At the present time, added Mrs. Dewey, the local branch is making complete records of all men at the Arinory, including officers.
 These records, showing previous employment and length of time em- ployed, will be kept on a monthly basis. At about the time the men are due back in Waterbury, the Wa terbury branch will devote its efforts to placing them at their old jobs, or at other jobs when this is not pos sible. ...
 A special listing of this record is to be sent to the Unemployment Compensation office in Hartford where it is placed in a special mill itary file, pending the outcome of a bill now before the legislature to freeze" the unemployment compen- stations for all men taken into the armed forces.
 The need for such a setup be- comes obvious when 1t is seen that under the present rules compensa- ton Is based on the amount of time worked in four out of five previous quarters. The compensations for men serving year therefore be- comes very small under this present law.
 Mrs. Dewey further stated that in this connection of checking up on the work records of men inducted into the army, she has received word from Camp Edwards that com plete records of Waterbury men sta tioned there under Captain Grover Baldwin will be sent to the Water bury offices. The 208th Coast Arr tjllery, Battery E is stationed at the camp now.

Hitler's March Usually Goes Out Like Lion

with his astrologer's OK, Hitler made one of his most daring moves occupation of the Rhineland, which under the Versailles Treaty was to remain free of German troops.
 In March-1936 - Hitler moved his troops south and annexed Aus tria, imprisoning Chancellor Kurt Schuschnigg.
 In March-ls39 - breaking the pledge he made at Munich, Hitler marched into Moravia and Bohe- mia and made the Czecho- -Slo- vakian provinces "protectorates'' of Germany.
 In March - l040 - Hitler was biding his time behind his battle- lines. But, according to rumors, his invasion of Norway. which came off successfully not much later, was planned for March and was post poned only on the insistence of Marshal ooering and other army chiefs.

(By Democrat Legislative Reporter)

(By Democrat Legislative RepOrter)
 State Capitol, Hartford, March l. Approval of bill authorizing the Town of Prospect to issue $30000 in school bonds was voted by the f1n- arce committees of the senate and house in a joint executive session yesterday afternoon. The commit tees favorable report on the bill will be filed in both chambers next week and passage of the measure is ex- pected.
 The $30O00 raised from bond sales will be used to build an addition to the Prospect school.
 At a hearing on the bill We'd nesday a number of Prospect resi- dents spoke in favor of the bill, de- claring that the addition was nec- essary and that bond i's ue was the best method of financing it.
 The principal opponent was George Cowdell, who said his main objection was not to the bonds but to the amount. Originally, he said, 1t was planned to issue $l0,000 in bonds, then the figure was raised to $20,- 900 and finally to $30,000.

 Already more than enough has been collected to meet the levy placed against the city by the state as its share of the old age assistance fund, and today's receipts were expected to bring collections to the $137,0O0 estimate contained in the budget for 1941.
 Collections from delinquents dur ing the rest of the year will mean a sizeable surplus in the old age assistance fund. Last year for the first time since the tax was levied, the city collected enough money to meet its state assessment but the total was not reached until late in the year.
 Those who failed to make pay ment of the $3 tax before the office closed today must pay a penalty of $1. MT. Mangini said that pay ments by mail, if postmarked with today's date, would not be subject to penalty.
 Meantime more than 5000 was collected in back taxes on personal property yesterday, virtually all that amount being received from auto mobile owners who wished to secure 1941 registrations for their cars. The law provides that markers can be withheld if the car owner is de- linquent in payment of property taxes on the vehicle.

Detroit Graft Cases Move Slowly;
 Trials May Continue For 2 Years

1 preliminary hearings because the state failed to show probable cause for their being held for trial Thirty-f1ve of the defendants were named in more than one warrant, including McCrea, his chief inves- tigator, Harry Colburn, former superintendent of police, Fred w. Frahm, and Richard w. Reading, former mayor.
 Handbook Biggest Racket
 The largest warrant, that one that may result in trial so long that no official was ready to esti- mate its duration, alleged a $l,500,- 900 graft conspiracy between McCrea, the police department and the handbook business which was said to have grossed around $S0,- 100000 annually.
 In this case there were 143 de- fendants, 65 co-conspirators and scores of other witnesses. The de- fendants included McCrea, Frahm, Coluburn and Readings. .s.
 Other major cases included:
 The so-called number case charging McCrea. Reading Frahm, Colubnr and other top police. off, cials with conspiring with alleged numbers operators including John Peterborough, Joe Louis co-man- ager, to allow the $l0,00O, ,000 an- nual numbers business to flourish in Detroit. ttt tt.
 The Baseball Pool case charging McCrea, Frahm and six others with protecting a baseball ticket racket in return for cash and other gratu- ities. The pool was said to have done a $1,000000 annual business.
 Although the grand jury still is in existence, a number of teh rac- keteer defndants were reported eking out business on a restricted scale. The most noticeable effect of the grand jury is the absence of slot machines and marble games in the city of Detroit.

(By Democrat Legislative Reporter
 State Capitol, Hartford, March :. - An unfavorable report on bil authorizing the issuance of 5000, 900 in bonds for improvement ant expansion of the state park ant forest system was voted the finance committees of the senate and hous' in an executive session yesterday afternoon, but Senator Michael V Blansfield, of Waterbury, committed chairman, reserved the right to op- pose his own committees recom- mendation on the floor.
 The vote to recommend that the bill be rejected was opposed by Senator Blansfield and by Senator Walter Barrett of Bridgeport. Both will speak in favor of upsetting the report and passing the bill when the committees report reaches the floor next week.
 Senator Blansfield announced sev- eral days ago that he favored the bill and would urge its passage, but lI 4S hlAOWll ILldV NaOFCAt&Ol 9tVSSA U A. Hurley is opposed to 1t. The Republican house is also largely against the measure and its chances of adoption are poor. Should 1t happen to be passed, Governor Hur- ley is expected to veto 1t.
 The $3,000,000 would be used tc complete Sherwood island, Ham inonasset beach and Rocky Neck Park, also to improve and expand state parks and forests in all parts of the state. Governor Hurley is said to feel that though the pur- pose is laudable, the state should not at this time 90 $3,o00,000 in deb, to enlarge the park and forest sys- tenn.
 Opponents of the bill believe that the $267, 900 allotted the state parl and forest commission in the gov ernor's budget is ample for tht next two years.

 If Adolf Hitler wins any new military successes this March, he can thank his lucky stars.
 For Hitler is student of as- trology and regularly consults an astrologer before he makes ma jor move. He believes the month of March, when planets and stars are in a certain conjunction In the sky, to be the most propitious time of the year-for him to act.
 So England may have good rea- son to expect an invasion in March. Some of the biggest things Hitler has pulled of have taken place in that month.
