Waterbury Trust, Citizens, Mer-
chants Trust and First Federal Loan
Association. Other financial insti-
tutions represented at the parley
were the Waterbury Building and
Loan, Morris Plan and Colonial
Trust. Industry was represented by
Fred Jackie and Walter Jarvis of
the Chase Brass and Copper Com
pany while lumbermen were repre-
Sented by j. Francis Smith, P. j.
Smith and Domenic Castellano.
President Young in his address
told the gathering that in his opin-
ion, Immediately after this war we
will have one of the greatest build
ing booms in the history of the
country and that now is the time
to encourage building within the
confines of Waterbury.
He also stressed the urgent need
for combined association of groups
to offer combined knowledge with
the city government on matters like
taxation and postwar city planning
He added that Immediately after
peace is declared the loss of income
through taxation on industry, stock
and equipment which has increased
Is million dollars in the past two
years will be felt with tremendous
shock and that it behooves men in
this group to give serious thought
to replacing this loss of income.
Builders should prefer Waterbury,
he added, for public utilities are
available and that there are a great
many desirable sites in our suburban
territories which are suitable for
development. He added that we
should cooperate with those desir-
ing to build up these sections and
thereby increase our tax revenue
with permanent revenue.
William McRossie, president of the
American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers and a member of the
Realtors Washington committe, was
guest at the meeting.
Also represented at the meeting
were the Naugatuck Valley Title
company and the Waterbury Title

their wage demands are met.
The WLB recognized the risk of
another strike in its adamant stand
against Lewis. But it said it could
not grant wage increase to the
miners in excess of the Little Steel
formula without making similar
concessions to all other workers and
destroying the administrations
economic sterilization program.
Wayne l.. Morse, a public member,
said in an opinion concurring with
the majority decision, that the ma
jor issue in the dispute was whether
the same rules affecting all other
workers would apply to the miners.
If this issue involving the SUI
premacy of law should ever be sac
rificed on the altar of expediency
or under coercion of power, the
damage to the war effort would be
much more costly not only to ma
tional morale, but also to actual war
production than would the losses,
unthinkable as they are, which
would result from a coal strike"
Morse said.
The unions decision on a new
strike may be affected by President
Roosevelt's action on the Smith
Connally anti-strike bill which was
pushed through congress to meet
such a threat
Coal Administrator Harold l..
Ickes, custodian Of the government

demand assurances that the miners
will remain at work just as he has
before. Lewis previously renewed

minds of the Italian people.
Premier MussoliniS decree declar-
ing eight additional Italian prov
inces facing the Tyrrhenian, 1onian
and Adriatic Seas zones of opera
tons under martial law was re-
ported by Bern dispatches to
strengthen a current belief there
tina Italy fears Allied invasion forces
may bypass Sicily and land directly
on the Italian mainland.
Such a landing, Bern sources said,
would cut Italy in two, if success
fully developed, and isolate Sicily,
which is separated from the toe of
the Italian boot by four to seven
mile wide Messina Strait.
The new martial law decree made
all citizens of Foggia, Bari, Brin-
diSi, Lecce, laramie, Cosenza, Ca
tanzaro and Matera provinces sub
ject to military penal laws. The de-
cree also extended martial law to
all sections of Reggie Calabria prov
ince not included in similar de-
cree announced May 81.
Thus the entire toe, sole and heel
of the italian boot as far north on
the west coast as a point northwest
of Cosenza and on the east coast
to point opposite Foggia has been
placed under military control
Sicily and Sardinia already were
under martial law under a decree
issued May II just after the fall of
Tunis and Bizerte.
Another official decree last night
announced that the first military
territorial war tribunal will be open
ed at Cosenza July with jurisdic-
ton over Reggie Calabria, Catan-
FARO and Cosenza provinces.
A Zurich dispatch relayed by the
London radio said that the Italian
government ordered the evacuation
of all except essential civilians from
Naples and all larger towns of Sicily
by July 10. The evacuation of all
towns in Sardinia will be completed
by the end of this month, the
broadcast said.
A Bern dispatch said that uncon-
trmed reports published abroad
that a revolt has broken out in
Reggie Calabria province had been
discredited by informed quarters
there as premature"
These quarters also denied foreign
reports that Fascist Secretary Carlo
Scorza had taken over direct action
from Mussolini. ScorZa, as party
secretary, is number 2 man in Italy
with a free hand to control Fascist
members holding key government
posts, but he still must answer to
MuSsolini, it was explained.

as prescribed by a charter pro-
vision.
The council refused to accept the
resignation and Spellacy summoned
special meeting for last night "in
order that that body may elect my
successor"
At last nights meeting the coun-
Gil ran through a brief routine
schedule, made no reference to the
resignation or a successor, and adj
journed.
Council President Frank M
Heavey, assuming the mayoralty
then called meeting for Wednes-
day ito elect successor to the
mayor"
Immediately claims were heard
that Spellacy still remained in Of
flee because of the councils refusal
earlier in the week to accept the
resignation, and its failure last night
to alter its position.
However, Spellacy said that "any
action or lack of action by the
council does not alter the fact thu
as of 1901 a. M, Saturday I am no
longer mayor"
The council could, it was said to-
day, reflect Spellacy at next We'd
nesday's meeting, and this posibil-
ity was being considered seriously
by many.
The Republican minority on the
council charged last nights meeting
a farce" and a face saving" ma
newer.
The strategy of the meeting was
decided upon a Democratic caucus
before hand and when the
adjournment move was made, DEM
ocrats piled out of the meeting room
before a vote was started.
Republican Alderman-at-L arge
John H. Hurley challenged the rul-
ing of Heavey that the meteing was
adjourned, but his effort to bring
the councilmen back for sustain
ing vote failed.
Hurley charged the meteing had
failed to transact the business for
which it was called and that a stu
alton had been created which made
the city and council "a laughing
stock throughout the entire state of
Connecticut"

REPUBLICANS SEEK
FEE ELIMINATION
Question of Changing
Rules to Be Discussed
With Judge Conway

The Republican town committee
directed Republican Town Chair
man Vernon L. Hall at its meeting
last night to report to Municipal
Court Judge Theobald E. Conway,
when the judge returns from his
vacation, about the changing of
rules of the party as suggested by
the Young Republican club. Judge
Conway is the chairman of the last
Republican town convention of this
city. Consequently until new con-
vention is appointed, the "old"
chairman has the power to change
the party rules.
The town convention, apart from
the town committee, includes the
delegates elected in the primaries
two years ago to select the party's
candidates for the campaign that
year, and to provide the laws for
conduct of the party's operations.
The abolition of the present fee
of $25 per voting district which
must be filed by each candidate in
a party primary is the chief feature
of the Young Republican clubs
suggestion. Party leaders have re-
vealed that while this fee must be
deposited, the costs of the primary
are borne equally by the opposing
candidate and the one supported by
the party organization, and any
balance unexpended from the OPP
posing candidates fee is returned to
him.
During last nights meeting of the
town committee it was pointed out
that before Judge Conway calls a
meeting of the town convention he
probably will call preliminary
meeting of one member of the con-
vention from each ward to decide
whether or not the convention
should be reconvened.
The committee directed the men,
bers to call in the district leaders
for conferences within two weeks to
start the ball rolling for the fall
campaign.
No further business was discussed
during the meeting.

IFS Couples Enjoy Annual
Function; Many Changes
Observed

More than 1875 couples attended
the annual Wildly senior prom held
last night at the gymnasium. IN
like other years, they came by foot
or bus and walked to nearby eat
cries, excluding the traditional de-
parture to out-of-the way clubs
after the prom.
Girls looked fresh and young in
their new, and in most cases, first
gowns. The majority of the boys
wore white jackets and contrasting
pants, and a few were dressed in
tuXedoS.
The seriousness of the present,
however, lowered in the air
throughout the evening, and the
realization that this might be their
last such occasion, gave the even
ing festive gaiety.
In the receiving line were: Prin-
cipal Joseph P. Kennedy, Vice.

IRELAND NEARS
ELECTION DATE
canon DeValera Favored
to Retain Control of Fire
Government
BY SAMUEL ID. HALES

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
Dublin, June 19-(UP)-The pos
sibility that the general election
Tuesday may change Fires foreign
policy was seen as very remote by
well informed Americans today.
They predict that canon De Va
lera, prime minister, will retain con-
troll of the government and pursue
his established policy of neutrality
The nearing election, in which 1877
members of the Dali Eireann dover
house, will be chosen, has developed
intense oratory, without any indica-
ton of new political trends.
James Dillon, member of the Dali,
has been stumping the country adj
vocating Fires entry into the war to
help the United States. Like other
Irishmen, he's not keen about help
ing Britain. He also has been ris-
ing in the Dali from time to time to
dust off old utterances of De Valera
bespeaking gratitude to the United
States, and to point out that Fire
has had chance to reciprocate ever
since Pearl Harbor.
William T. Cosgrave is telling the
electorate that if his Fianna fail
Omitted Ireland party gets a major
ity in the Dali, it will invite De Va
lera and his Fianna Fail party to
participate in its government.
De Valera counters that his par
ty has given the country sound
government for 10 years.
The present election indicates one
fact. Twenty years after her indie
pendence, Fire has produced no new
outstanding political leaders.

working truces only at the request
of IckeS without recognizing de-
mandS of the president of the WLB
Ickes moves to settle the case were
blocked, however, by the WLB which
insisted that Lewis should not be
given special treatment.
At Ickes' request, the union re-
neWed the truce two weeks ago after
tive-day stoppage that cost II ,O00,-
900 tons of coal. That truce expires
at midnight Sunday.
The UNIV may respond to the
WLB denial of portal o-portal pay
by carrying the case to court. 1t
claimed it was entitled to such pay
for underground travel time under
federal court decision applying
the Wage-Hour law to iron miners.
The WLB had sought an "out of
court settlement" of the dispute but
when the negotiators failed to agree
it said it could not force settle
ment. Proposals offered by tbs
union, the board said, merely were
disguised wage increase demands
unrelated to the Wage-Hour law.

agencies, giving them a virtual clean
bill of health.
The axe fell on OPA after two
days of charges in House commit
tee that an OPA pilot" to regulate
profits as well as prices had been
discovered.
Owls domestic branch became a
casualty in the House after Davis in
Boston speech this week asserted
that Washington news was not being
covered adequately. He has been
accused by House members of at
tempting to control the press.
The vote to abolish OWLS do
este functions was 218 to 144,
southern Democrats voting with
Republicans. All of the important
votes against OPA policy were voice
votes. The vote to reduce OPA's
appropriation from $165, 100000 to
to $130,000,000 was 1876 to lat.
The most severe blows were struck
at the OPA in four restrictive
amendments which practically
would outlaw the price roll-back
and labelling programs and
necessitate complete reorganiza-
ton of the agency. They provided:
l. That no salaries be paid OPA
employees who direct or authorize
the establishment of subsidies. This
truck at the heart of the roll-back
program which hinges on the pay
ment of subsidies to professors of
food products.
2. That no funds be used in the
PRONUNCIATION of orders establishing
grade labelling or brand standardiz-
alton on food. clothing or other civ
ilian commodities.
3. That all policy making execu-
tives of the OPA must have at least
five years experience in the bust
ness field over which they have
authority.
4. Reduction Of the OPA's general
appropriation for the 1874 fiscal year
from $165 100000 to $4,000, 900.
Senate Republicans were in a
mood to receive the roll-back block
with open arms.
Enactment of the House subsidies
amendment, sponsored by Rep.
Everett Dirksen, r., Ill. would pre-
vent OPA Administrator Prentiss
M. Brown from spending funds
promised for the roll-back program
by the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation over which congress
has no direct control, according to
advocates.
They wouldn't venture a predic-
ton on what might happen to roll
backs already inaugurated on but
ter and those planned for meat,
which take effect Monday.
The House voted abolition of the
Owls domestic branch in rejecting
$5,500,000 for that branch that
total amuont recommended by the
House appropriations committee
and prohibited the use of $28,972, 504
in other funds approved for over
seas activities for the purpose. This
came on an amendment by Rep.
Starnes. D., Ala. who told the
House that america needs no DR..
Goebbels our great American
newspapers are competent to report
the news directly"
Debate on the Starnes amend
ment produced the bitterest con-
gressional criticism yet aimed at
Davis and his administrative poll
cies.
All reductions IN the overall war
agencies appropriation were made
in the OPA and owl.
