Robert G. Hepburn, associate
county agricultural agent in New
Haven County, has been appoint
ed to the agricultural economics
staff of the University of COnnec-
ticut, it was announced today at
the university.
Mr.. Hepburn will have the aca-
demic rank of assistant professor
ind will devote full time to extern
sion work, principally in the field
of vegetable and fruit marketing.
This has been his specially at New
Haven, a center of the fruit and
vegetable growing industry. He
has been advisor to the fruit and
vegetable marketing cooperatives
in the county and in 1941, while
temporarily attached to the uni
versity staff, he made survey of
the New Haven wholesale fruit
and vegetable.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-06-03

it was the belief of all present that
delinquent taxpayers would cooper
ate and no drastic steps might be
necessary.
1t was decided by the local Off
Gals that all delinquents would be
given proper notice by the City
Sheriff. If this fails to produce re-
suits a written notice will be mailed.
Failure to make proper returns fol-
lowing these two notices will result
in definite action being taken to
reduce or cut off entirely water
service in the affected properties.
1t is also expected that the office
of the Corporation Counsel may take
action by bringing suit against the
delinquents in the Small Claims
court, where there is reasonable evil
dence given of Discrimination on
the part of the consumer to &C
knowledge the Indebtedness.
DR.. Godfrey indicated at today's
meeting that he would cooperate
from health standpoint in the
city's drive. Where tenants health
might be endangered by shutting
off or reducing water in an apart
ment house, his department. will aid
in bringing pressure on the owners.
The exact amount of delinquent
water rents was not indicated at
today's session, but Superintendent
Scott-Smith was requested to make
a complete survey of the Water
Department bills and report back
the amount of delinquency, the
number of persons who are delin-
quent regularly, etc. Following re-
celpt of the same the necessary
steps to compel payment will be
taken.
The city's water fund is now on
a elf-sustaining basis. In fact
since revision of the water rates in
1941 there has been surplus in
the operating budget. However, Of
ficials said this did not lessen the
Importance Of eliminating delin-
quency among consumers. A fur
ther revision in the rates to equalize
minimum charges for certain types
of meters was only recently approved
Although city officials did not
state what might be the outstanding
water rent delinquency the recent
report of City Controller Cornelius
F. Maloney for 1912 showed that or
Dec. 81, 1912, there was outstanding
in that years water rent SAL 1886. 76
while on prior years there was
$31 ,608.57. In addition there were
service connection charges Of
$1685.01 and charges through the
Corportion Counsels office OF
$8,719.61, making a total outstand-
ing of $83,84995.
But during the months of l943
this figure has been reduced prob
ably in half with estimates now
that reach only about $4,000 as
representative of the water rent de-
linquency. This will be corrobor-
ated by Street Supt. Scott-Smith's
! check-up and ensuing report.
