City Granted Federal
Funds For Child Care
$S,3O7 Appropriated Under Lanham Act; War Council
Here Request Assistance of Manufacturers

1
Notification of presidential ap-
proval Of q federal contribution Of
$8,397 in Lanham Act funds to as
sist the City Of Waterbury in the
cost Of maintenance and operation
of wartime school facilities, was re-
ceived today by Regional Director
John M. Gallagher from Major Cen
eral Philip B. Fleming, Federal
Works Administrator.
This Is q war public service pro-
ject intended to provide care from
April through December 81 for the
young children Of mothers employed
IN war industry.
There Is a labor shortage in the
Waterbury area" Mr.. Gallagher
said, land the present supply of
men and available women Is nearly
depleted. Industry must draw up on
women with children to meet its
requirements. This project, which is
part Of O community plan, provides
for an initial program to serve go
children from 2 to IL years Of age.
One center will be operated and fees
and local contributions will equal
approximately so per cent Of the
operating cost"
The city Of Waterbury has been
waiting ever since July / for this
grant to come through and all con-
cerned, especially Miss Marion Hunt
head Of the local child care COM
mittee.
The grant of $S.397 Is for the Pc
Rod between April Ito December 81,
plus fees and applicants funds Of
1882. The latter amount mentioned
caused puzzled expressions since the
city hadn't made any plans to con-
tribute 1898 to be used for the
center.
FrOm Revenue?
One spokesman said that the fed
eral government perhaps now ex-
poets the city Of Waterbury to con-
tribute q similar amount ($7.232) or
have 1t derived from the fees to be
charged.
Miss Hunt pointed out that the
war working mothers Of Waterbury
are expected to pay for the care Of
their children at the center which
will be the Kingsbury home on
Prospect street. which Is capable OF
taking care Of approximately so
children. This home was presented
to the Mattatuck Historical society
several years ago. Miss Hunt added
that her stan will consist OF six
school teachers who viii be In charge
Of the children whose mothers work
In the industries.
II was pointed out to the War
Council that the Child Care Com
mittee earlier In the week had fp-
proved a plan whereby an appeal
would be made to manufacturers Of
the city to aid In equipping the CEN
ter In view Of the material bene-
iits they would derive through its
operation and the spread of the
child care program throughout the
city.

lief that colored dry beans, as pro-
duced by garden snap vines, are
inferior to white dry beans not only
In flavor but also In nutritive value,
and are therefore not worth saving,
But the Department Of Agriculture
says this Is not true, and all beans
too old for immediate use should
be allowed to ripen on the vine for
winter eating. We must save every
ounce OF food kthis year.
