'MISERS LOT
 DUMPING OUT
Caution Taken 10 Prevent Fires From Endangering
 New Rubber Factory

Naugatuck, July = Fire Marshal Michael F Shea today announced that starting Monday, no dumping will be permitted at the borough dump near the "Mires Lot" property in the southwestern part of the town, between 3 p. m. and 8 a. m.
 This decision was reached at a conference yesterday afternoon att tended by the fire marshal, and Fire Chief John J. Sheridan, Warden Leo J. Brophy, Edward J. Weaving, chief of the Naugatuck Chemical Company Fire Department; Dr. Ludwig Meuser, official of the Chemical Company; Captain Lyman Lamphere of the local fire depart ment; Richard Parkinson, of the U. s. Rubber Company.
 MT. Shea said there are two prim- ary reasons for the move. One is to prevent fires from endangering the new synthetic rubber plant which is in that vicinity, and the second is that fires in the dumps at night would help to guide enemy planes in case of a raid, and would prevent a blackout from being effective.
 Beginning Monday, the only time when dumping there will be permit ted is from 8 a. m.. to D. m. and after that time guards will prevent persons from getting near the dump.

No Arrests Yesterday as Meter Payments Are In-
 augurated Locally

Naugatuck, July 3 = Most auto ists apparently are aware that charges for parking, via parking meters, are now in effect. 1t was learned from police today. There were very few cases yesterday where persons did not pay into meters and thees quickly did so when police pointed out that the meter plan is now actually in effect.
 Police Chief John J. Gormley said that on only one street are there meters which require five cents, this being on the south side of Division street, where parking is for one hour and the payment is nickel. Chief Gormley said some autoists there apparently didn't read the back of the meters which explain this, for they seemed puzzled that the meters didn't work after they put fin one or two cents.
 There were no arrests yesterday for those who failed to pay into the meters as police wished to give res ldents a day or two to get accus- toned to it.
