Legislative ''Works"

If any local bill ever received the leg islative "workS" it is the current one being sponsored by the administration of Mayor Vincent A. Scully. Once the governor has affixed his signature to the charter revision measure everyone can breathe 6 sigh of relief and exclaim that if any one piece of proposed legislation was subjected to more inspection and technical delay, this certainly is the one. Not that there is great need for the bill to be rushed through the General As- Sembly. The bill was long time in the preparation; just as deliberate passage is deserved.
 Strictly speaking there is little to be found fault with about the bill. It is 8 straightforward effort on the part of the Scully regime to correct number of obvious weaknesses in the existing char ter. It also strengthens number of sections and eliminates any danger of misinterpretation. True, 1t does make some changes, but for the most part they must be considered definite progress and not mere political maneuvering. Right now the bill is in a state of suspended inanimation. It may have to be printed for the benefit of House members.
 Whether or not it does it probably will be another week before the measure is in the governors office. Few if any meas ures, which apparently are getting con- mittee sanction and are sure of approval in both houses, meet the unexpected de- lays, technical ones, that the revision bill has. Its course of action can only be described as a complete tour around the General Assembly circuit.

Outpouring of Interest

The very large and well-attended ben eft card party that was held at St. Mary's Hospital Thursday night tended to show what feeling of interest and concern there is among this community for the familiar and Well-known Franklin Street institution. Its gradual expansion down through the last thirty years has always been matter for community pride. All of us have watched its growth through the years with the interest that should be shown in all such institutions which perform the works of mercy, such as minlstering the sick and injured.
 While the card party attendance repre- sented just mere percentage of those Waterburians who have come at some time under the kindly care of the good sisters and fine nurses of St. Marys, 1t, nevertheless was a cross-section of city population. Opening of the new wing of the hospital next month should be a glorious occasion for the hospital author Ities. Many can recall the far-off day when the first small building at the cor ner of Franklin and Union Streets opened it's doors and the first patient was ad- mitted Well may they reflect today that the passing years have witnessed remarkable plant development and an accompanying growth of respect, affec- ton, and admiration between Water bury's citizenry and St. Mary's Hospital.

Selected Poem
STONE WALLS OF NEW ENGLAND

STONE WALLS OF NEW ENGLAND (By Agnes Barden Dustin sn the Boston PosU Our heritage from the elder years, Monuments to the pioneers, Are the walls that stretch faithful arm Around each field and rocky farm, To guard the crops and herds from harm These stones, unruned yet plainly trace The faith and hopes of Stiirdier race. Here rugged men, with honest toll, Builded with waste from the cumbered soil. Their plodding oxen, with heave and sway, And mulling cuds in their tolerant way, Here wrote the saga of their day. No hostile stones To you belong The challenge of hardship to make me strong Grayed with sun and winter weather, They stitch the pastures and fields together Even fallen down and frosted with moss, With vines and brambles clambering across Time deals kindly with their loss, And anoints with the balm of age-old charm The picturesque ruins of the farm. The pattern of her folks are shown Tn New England's tapestry of stone. Their thrift, their love of liberty, Courage to dare which makes men free, Their pride in home and family. Content to live upon the land The simple life that God first planned. No country could buy with all its gold The legends that cling to these walls grown old. They write in granite that all may read The life of our forefathers, with its creed Of equality in word and deed
 Stand strong and sturdy, O walls of stone, Till we make the message you hold our own.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-04-26

We don't know what prompted the leg islative Appropriations Committee to take action on one state trade school bill and not another, but that's just about what happened this week. Some Capitol ob- servers are inclined to blame 1t on the fact that Waterbury legislators weren't present at the committee session to speak for the Waterbury school, but even so 1t doesn't seem right for the committee to separate all such petitions for funds and deal with them separately. After all the the Waterbury one and vice-versa. There fore. 1t would seem to be common sense to deal with them at one and the same time.

Town clerks all over the state are somewhat perturbed this weekend over the fact that the change in the license fee for female dogs has gone into effect right in the middle of the period during which these licenses are customarily issued. May is usually the dead-line for all dog licenses. However, great many licenses for the female dogs owned as pets have been issued at the old price of $10.25. The new fee is only $5.25, so it looks as if there might be vociferous demand from the early-birds for a $5 rebate. And you can't blame them. This situation is difficult one, but the state can't afford to say that dog owner must be penalized $5 just because he believes in obeying the law early. We wouldn't be bit surprised to find the Attorney Generals office ruling that there would have to be a rebate or that the new fee could not take effect until after the dead line has been reached.

Runania Hits Bottom

We wouldn't pretend to know much about Rumanian politics, which always at this distance look good deal like an egg scrambling itself. But that is all in the past. Rumanian politics is simple now. Baron von Killinger, Hitler's "anl- bassador" to Rumania, has announced formally at Bucharest, that General An- tonescu is "Rumania's representative for Adolf Hitler"
 We seem to recall that General Anto- nescu claimed the title of premier" or some such name vaguely suggesting that in some way lie represented the people. on September 6, 104O, Antonescu was eE4ing. Brother Rumaniansl From the

 c. Why did the president change the date of Thanksgiving and how many states observed the early date?
 A. The president was asked to change the date to increase the shopping time between ThaniEegiv- ing and Christmas. Tn 1889 twenty two states observed the early date and three made both dates holidays. In l04O thirty-two states observed the early date and one state made both dates holidays.
 e. Why does hot air hold more water vapor than cold air?
 A. The correct statement Is not that hot air holds more water vapor than cold air, but that it can holc more. The pressure and density of saturated water vapor increases with temperature. so that ct 20 degrees C., for example, Q liter of air can contain no more than 17.2 milli- grams of the water vapor, while at
