'ALL-CLEAR' ORDER
MAY BE AMENDED
Audible Signal Likely to
Be Officially Adopted to
Avoid Confusion

Although no bulletin has come
through as yet, local civilian defense
authorities said today that they
are confident that an audible "all-
clear signal will be granted as part
of the air raid code, at the meet
ing of the Connecticut War Coun-
Gil in Hartford today.
The Army recommends that
where horns, whistles or sirens are
used to'sound air raid signals these
same devices be adopted for an
audible "all -clear" signal providing
their use is limited to one contin-
uous blast Of not more than 10 sec
onds duration.
Mr.. Curtin was one of the first
civilian defense officials to sponsor
the requisition for an audible "all-
clear" which now replaces the ra-
dio flash. The old method of the
radio flash caused a great deal Of
confusion and embarrassment be-
tween occupants Of the home and
air raid wardens.
The bulletin revealing the Army's
approval of the states use OF an
"all- clear" on the siren circuit was
received by Secy. Frank j. Green
OF the Waterbury War Council
from Edward j. Hickey, acting
council administrator.

CITY TRANSFERS
FUNDS TO BOSTON
$l,5OO,OOO Sent to First
National Bank Within
TwO=Weeks Period

An additional 100000 of city
funds was transferred from local
banks to the First National Bank
of Boston over the Weekend City
Controller Cornelius F.. Maloney
stated today. This makes $4,000
the city has had to transfer to its
Boston depository within the past
week.
The citys accounts in the local
banks are now at the level allowed
under state banking laws, but tax
collections SO far in May have been
extremely heavy and the city has
been forced to avail itself of the
permission granted by the 1941
Legislature to make use of an out
of-state bank.
Although it is not expected that
any further transfers will be made
of funds, it is believed that by June
l the city's tax collection figures will
have reached a record total for the
first installment.
At the end Of the month the city
will make an 100000 payment to
the Central Hanover Bank g. Trust
Company on tax anticipation note
f1oated last December. 1t falls due
on June 2.
