receive an application by this date probably means your fuel supplier kept no record of his customers and the amount of oil delivered to them during the year ending May 31, 1922"
 The chairman said October 27 is "the time to straighten the matter out" and advised as a first step that the consumer get in touch with his fuel supplier and injuire why the application form hadn't been sent to him.
 In case the consumer is a new conner to a community and doesn't know the name of the concern which supplied his house with fuel last year, he should make inquiries among neighbors and the major fuel distributors in the locality and, if these prove fruitless, then get the application blank from the local OPA board, the chairman added.
 of course, users of kerosene, bought in small quantities from the corner grocery or gas station, shouldn't expect these dealers to mail them an application because obviously nod detailed record is kept of such small sales," he added.
 These small-qual4tity buyers should obtain their applications by going to the local boarj themselves, the OPA chairman continued.
 '"The application blanks for mail- ing to consumers are being distrib- uted 60 dealers October 21 and H." he concluded. '"The dealers them selves must register with their local boards October 27 and October 28."
 President Kenishea announced to- day that the E ecutive Board of Local 45 has endorsed Frank Wood of Beacon Falls, member of Local 45 as 6 candidate for the General Assembly at Hartford on the Demo- cratic ticket.

 The Executive Board urges all voters in Franks districts to give him their wholehearted cooperation and support by casting their ballot on election day.

BOROUGH TRUCKS
 BUSY COLLECTING
Scrap Metal Project Re- sumes Today; Quota of
 l4O Tons Assured

Due to the enormous amount of scrap metals donated oy residents to the defense program, borough trucks were out collecting today and will continue to do so Tuesday &C., cording to an announcement made by James F. Kissane of the local salvage committee.
 The metal is being stored on the property of Miss Josephine A. Maher in Elm Street. MT. Kissane said this location and access to it was more Head than the property of Anthony Iaguna on Brennan Street. However, he said the corn- mittee was grateful to MT. Laguna for offering his land as one of the depots.
 MT. Kissane stated most of the metal collected today and which is expected to be collected Tuesday is too heavy for owners to carry out to the street.
 As much heavy metal is being donated by local factroies and other organizations, there is every indica- ton that Naugatuck's quota of 140 tons will be raised, MT. Kissane re- ported. He was especial pleased with the efforts of school children whose collections were much greater than average.
 The Naugatuck Water Co. had offered one of its trucks for the collection, but Mir. Kissane expres- sed confidence that the metal could be collected by street trucks and it would not be necessary to obtain assistance from owners of private trucks.
