 July 9, 194l. William J. Roach,
 Supt, of Police,
 Waterbury, Conn.
 My Dear Superintendent:
 I was greatly shocked to read in yesterday mornings paper of the death of Officer J. E. Palmatier. I think he was one of the finest examples of police officer. You would always find him pleasant, agreeable, and very efficient. He was carefully looking after the pulp lie to keep them in their place, but at the same time was very friendly in doing his duty in what I term an efficient manner.
 I have known him for number of years and have often remarked about his agreeable ways and yet carrying out his orders to the best interest of the city. Mrs. Temple ton and I join in extending to his family our very deep and sincere regrets.
 Yours very truly,
 CHARLES 4. TEMPLETON.

 Willette's continual remark to Prosecuting Atty. Frederick w.

Judge Gaffney asked the accused if he wanted to say anything in his behalf. The de- fendant refused to make any state- ment and reiterated that he did not remember anything of the inc cident.

The pugnacity of Rosaire Willette, 26, of 413 South Main street, this city and also of Clark street, South ington, was stressed in municipal court today by several officers who were called to arrest him after a disturbance in 8 restaurant on South Main street Saturday night. Judge Gaffney fined Willette a to- tai of $50 and costs when he was arraigned on three counts, assault, breach of the peace and resisting an officer.
 Supernumerary Jerry Hunnihan Jr., testified that Willette was re- quested to leave the Diamond res taurant at 396 South Main street shortly before 10 o'clock and tha! he went inside to warn him to leave. The accused refused, and whirling on him, the officer said struck him. After a tussle the of f1cer was able to take him put through the rear of the restaurant since a crowd of spectators had gathered in front of the restaurant
 As they came out into the alley way, Willette made a dive for his feet, the supernumerary said, and the two fell down in a tussle. Of- ficer Hunnihan said as a result of the struggle his clothing was torn and he lost his wrist watch while making the arrest.
 The officer said he was compelled to use blackjack on the recalci- trant prisoner who continued to put up 8 stubborn fight as he was being taken to the police wagon.
 Three other policemen were caIl- ed to aid the officer. They were Motor Patrolman Leo McKenna, Patrolmen Edmund Class and Su- pernumerary Harold Green.
 When they arrived, he said, he was on the ground with Willette.
 Finally the accused was bundled off into the police wagon. The testifying officer said that while he was being transported to the police station, he put up stiff fight in the wagon with him and other of- ficers.
 Tn the police station, Willette fought again and after a while dropped to the floor and feigned dead, the officer continued.
 He was then taken to the St.. Mary's hospital and while there caused considerable trouble. Off, ficer Hunnihan said the man had fight in him at the hospital and attempted to beat up the internes and orderlies but after while he was pacif1ed while his wounds on

Veteran 'Railroader'
 Requests Retirement
Charles w MunsOn To Leave New Haven Road After 50 Years Of Service-Failng Vision Prompts
 ActiOn-Recalls Experiences

With an enviable record of 59 years of service with the New ,Ha- ven Railroad behind him, Conductor Charles W. MunSon of 347 West Main street, is retiring because of faulty vision.
 He recently underwent operations for cataracts on both eyes, and failed subsequently, to pass the re- quired vision test which all railroad employees must meet. His retire. ment under these circumstances is automatic, although MT. Munson, who seems to be in perfect health, emphasizes that if it were not for his eyes, he would 90 on indefinite ly with the ew Haven road.
 MT. Munson is very well known locally, having lived in this city since 1879, although he is 8 native of Bristol. Many are the changes he has seen in Waterbury, and par ticularly on the railroad since he first started out aS news and water boy on the Winsted, Waterbury, and Bridgeport run in September, 1881.
 Travelling Conditions
 In those days, he recalls, travel ing conditions were less luxurious than they are today. For one thing, passengers had no trouble in getting water to drink while in transit If they were not too Squeamish about 1t. Water, ice, (and plenty of cinderS from the engine) were kept in wooden tank chained to the platform of the baggage car, and drinking water was carried through the train in 8 can with two glasses attached, from which all the travellers took turns drinking.
 When MT. MunSon became 6 brakeman in 1884, he found that the job involved more than his title would imply. Tn addition to work which would naturally be done by brakeman, he had to carry coal for the engine, empty ashes, fill the lamps, and clean the cars inside and out. Needless to say, the modern conveniences such as steam heat, electric lights, air brakes, and so on, were absent from the trains of those bygone days.
 After serving in various capacities, MT. Munson was advanced to con- ductor's standing in 1889. Looking back over his half-century of ex- perience since that time, he consid-
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-07-23

CTS that the most frequent and the most distressing trouble he had as 8 passenger conductor was with drunken men, and temperamental women. Other perpetual problems were how to collect a half-fare for the first time, and how to get full fare for @ child which had previous ly been riding for half tickets.
 He good-naturedly re-echoes the traditional conductors lament about persons who enter a coach, turn over Cor kick over) the back of the seat in front of them, and ride with their feet on the cushions and then complain about dirty cars.
 Blizzard
 Conductor Munson wildly recalls the far-famed blizzard of 1888. He should, for his train was showed in for four days at Beacon Falls on that occasion, with one hundred passengers aboard. The circum- stances proved 8 bonanza for the lone provision store in the town at that time, which promptly sold out its entire stock of canned goods to the hungry travellers.
 MT. Munson is naturally deeply impressed by the vast changes in the power and size of locomotives which have come during his years with the railroad. The first engines on which he traveled were wood- burning ones, which stopped at Bris- tol to have cord wood thrown or by the train crew. Then in 1876 was the memorable occasion of the initial by coal-burning engine, The Centennial, from Hartford to Wa terbury.
 Tn those days, the capacity of a coal car was 13 tons, and IS loaded freight cars was the limit for one engine to pull. Today 1t is @ con- mon sight to see one engine speed up the valley with one hundred or more cars, many times larger than those of the lss0's.
 Various Assignments
 Conductor Munson has served on trains running from Waterbury to all the points about the state. in- cluding Winsted, Hartford, Danbury. New Haven, Bridgeport, and New York, on day and night freights, and circus trains, in addition to reg ular passenger trains and excur- sions. He also has worked on the observation train at the boat races along the HouSatonic river at Shell ton.
 He now retireS with an annuity from the Railroad Retirement Board, with which he hopes ito keep on the W.P.A.", he says.

NEWEST CHAIN
 SCHEME ALLEGED

Boston, July g. - (UP) - Post master Peter F. Tague of the Bos- ton district warned today that the newest chain letter scheme, like any other, was illegal even though defense savings stamps were being used as the medium of exchange and award to the top names on the letters.
 Tague said he had been informed by Acting Solicitor Calvin w. Has, sell of the Postoffice Department that large numbers of defense stamp chain letters were being sent all over the nation. He called at tention to orders forbidding delivery of mail to persons in the chain and warned that use of the mails for such purposes was violation of the postal fraud and lottery statutes, making the sender liable to prose- cution.

 About the first os September, he added, a manager will arrive to take over. the completed dwellings, and manage the renting of the units, and their care and upkeep. This manager will consider the ap- plications of persons eager to rent homes, and will give preference to those workers most essential to de- fense.

NEW YORK, Oct. 4-Skies
cleared for the World Series today,
but in the stock market, with the
exception of Frightening rails and
specialties, clouds generally con-
tinued to obscure the direction.
The list exhibited fairly steady
tendencies at the start. Dealings,
active for a while, slowed. Liveliness
of a number of ow-priced issues
again helped the aggregate, and
transfers for the two hours were
around 250000 shares.
While there were scattered gamers
of a point or so at the close, with
several favoriteS edging into new
high ground for the year, minor va
riatiOns were the rule. Numerous
stocks were unchanged and minus
signs were plentiful when the final
gong sounded.
AS in the past week or so, specu-
lative cOntingents showed consider
able immunity to the war news.
Taxes and growing governmental re-
strictionS, however, remained as buy
ing handicapS, brokers said.
Transportation stocks. which have
been tagging for long time and
which initiated a modest comeback
Friday, apparently drew further
support on misunderstanding con-
cerning settlement of the wage con-
troverSy with smaller increase
than many had looked for. Climb
ing traffic and net income for the
principal roads helped the group
