Retailers SAY. YES
Associate Field Director of the War Savings Staff of the Treasury
 Department

Washington, D. O., January a. At meetings held during the past month with leading retailers in more than twenty states, the Treas ury's Say Yes" plan has been enc Enthusiastically approved.
 During January and February, retailers the country over will act as a spear-head in this great drive to sell the additional War Stamps needed to fill more than one hundred million albums which are in the hands of the people of the United States. The conversion of all these albums into $18.75 War Bonds would contribute the amaz- ing total of nearly two billion to the Nations war effort and the stamp album holders would receive $4.0O for every $500 invested at the end of ten years.
 Through their direct daily con- tact with millions of customers, re- tailers are in an ideal position to set new all-time high record for Stamp sales during January and February. By doing 50 they will not only render Q real service to their country but to their custom- CTS as well.
 The Treasury's slogan, "A half filled album is like a half-equipped soldier" has been officially adopted by retailers in their concentrated effort to convert thrilled stamp al- buns into War Bonds. ....

PENSION SYSTEM
 TO BE STUDIED
Mayor MOnagan Advises Fixed Policy to Be Deter-
 mined Without Delay

Establishment of a fixed policy on city retirements and pensions should be studied, Mayor John S. Monagan told the board of finance at its meeting yesterday and he was authorized to name a special com mittee to study the question. On the committee are Commissioners Edward P. Egan, Robert L. Coe and John P. Brophy.
 The present session of the legis- lature has brought the usual flood of Waterbury pension bills, the mayor said. Many are worthy, he stated, but they are introduced in haphazard fashion, without regard for any set policy. A plan might be established, he said, whereby pen- sion bills might be sponsored by the city administration if found worthy by the boards of finance and alder men.
 Commissioner Egan, a former member of the state Senate, said that Q definite policy on pensions and retirements was much to be de. sired. He proposed that to gain city endorsement all pensions bills must have the approval of the mayor. corporation counsel and city con. troller.
 The special committee will meet with members of the board of d. dermen before starting to formulate any proposed permanent pension plan.

Unnecessary Display of Money, Valuables Temp. tation to Criminally- y-Inclined - 1,331, ,272 Major Crimes Committed in 1941

The store was closed. The cart on the door said the owner was being buried. He had been Sho down a few nights before defend. ing his property against the at. tack of an armed bandit.
 Tt was SO needless" said the widow. What was any amount of money compared to his lifel"
 The death of the Storeowner was unnecessary because he of- fered resistance. In addition, the robbery, itself, could have been prevented-and a life saved - if the store owner had observed the first rule of handling money: Never expose money needlessly. The store owner had tempted fate by having his cash register ir clear view of the window. Passers- by could look in each time the register was opened and see whether or not there was a great deal of money in 1t.
 It was only question of time before a criminal saw the money and struckl
 An examination of reports of thousands of burglaries and rob- berries occurring over @ period of years indicates that 75 per cent of all these crimes could have been prevented if practices instituted after the attack had been in force at the time the crime was com- mited, The Aetna Casualty and Surety Company of Hartford, re- ports.
 Of the 1884, major crimes committed in the United States in 194l, the FBI estimates that 96 percent were committed for the purpose of obtaining property. Ap- plication of 8 few commons sense safety rules can substantially re. duce crime losses. While each business has its own individual problems, certain gen. eral safety rules apply to all. These rules suggested by the Aetna include:
 Safe Burglary
 1. Remember that needless ac- emulation of money breeds crime the way pile of trash breeds fire.
 2. With modern burglary resist i've safes of the market for the duration of the war, special pre- cautions should be taken to guard record safes which are not de- signed to resist the attack of an experienced burglar.
 3. Wherever possible these record safes should be anchored in plain view of the street SO that a crim- inal attempting to "crack" the safe can easily be observed.
 4. Bolt mechanism should be checked regularly to make sure that it engages propertly. Many old safes carDbe popped open with an ordinary wrecking bar.
 5. Locks on old safes can be backed up with steel guards, mak- ing them more difficult to force.
 6. Change the combination from time to time and spin the dial when locking the safe day or night. Many persons make the practice Of giving the dial only ( quarter turn. 4 quarter turn bacl and the safe is unlocked - and don't think 6 smart criminal won't try it.
 2 Be sdye to change the fec. toFy.combination of your safe when you buy it.

N0ENVeegA
 State Capitol, Hartford, Jan. 22- Specific legalization of parking meters is provided in a bill filed yesterday by Rep. John A. Mem brino (D), special assistant to the Waterbury corporation counsel The measure is an obvious answer to a bill filed earlier by Senator John F. Tobin CD, at the request of Att torney John H. Cassidy, which would make any community install ling meters secure the permission of abutting property owners and pay them.
 The Membrino bill provides that any community can install parking meters, can set fees and fix time limits, also adopt regulations gov- erning use of the devices.

 One of the projects-called Van- pcrt--is being rushed to completion especially for the workers in Kaiser shipyards and is the largest single housing development the world has ever known.
 It will be second in size, only to Portland, in all Oregon. It is located north of Portland on the banks of the Columbia and covers 647 acres. A total of l82 service buildings for heat, laundry, storage, etc., are re. quired for this project.
 Vanport Is not the only Pacific Coast housing project. There are 35

ond that the criminal is in the store increases his chance of being apprehended.
 3. Never count your money in the open. Days receipts should be counted behind locked doors.
 {. Remember, the key-locked compartments of safes offer only the illusion of security. These doors can be jimmied open in a second.
 Highway Robbery
 1. Regularity is an admirable bus ineSS trait-but not when it comes to taking cash to the bank for deposit. Vary the time you go, and the route you follow.
 2. When using an automobile for this purpose, keep the doors locked and the windows up. The bandit doesn't want to attract attention by smashing 8 window to get in the car when you stop at a street intersection.
 3. When large amounts of money must be carried, notify poe lice department and arrange for protection.
