Washington, June 17.-If you've got a tough job for you want done, the trick would seem to be to send for someone named Davis. That's one Washington answer, anyway, and today you have to be careful about keeping your Davises straight.
 Half 8 dozen people named Da- wis are sitting on six O. the hottest seats in town, making the family name of Davis about the most im- portant in the capital-though as far as any of these important Da- vises know, none is any direct re- lation to any of the other members of the tribe.

Waterbury will be confronted with tlls usual demand for payment Of wafr bonds during the years l953-lB55. At present the water de- partment has a surplus practically every year Of more than $200O00. Budget Director Thorvald E. Olsen recommended setting up such res- serve at the last meeting of the board of finance. The bo.rd sent the suggestion to the board of works which controls the water depart ment and that board notified the board of finance yesterday that it sanctioned it.
 A little before the end of each year the transfer of any surplus in the water department over the $l00,00O will be made. It is planed to keep back $100,000 to help finance the water department has come into be- ing only in the last two years and is due to the new schedule of water rents put into effect which, for the first time in many years, has brought in more revenue than was necessary for maintenance expens- eS,

FEDERAL AUDITORS VISIT WATERBURY
Facts, Figures on Pitch Brook Dam Construction
 Is Being Checked

City Engineer Charles A. Root re- vealed today that federal auditors were 'in town this week" to check up on facts and figures concerning the government grant in the amount of $5O0,000 which is being used for the construction of the Pitch Brook Dam.
 They appeared very pleased, said MT. Root, with the progress made and with the situation in general This is the only unusual or inter esting part of their visit" he add ed, because they most always find fault-because 1t happens to be their job."
 The committee of federal auditors travel throughout the country to check on how the funds allocated by the federal government are appro- priated. In this case, the money was granted to teh city about the end of December 1941 for the purpose of putting up the Pitch Brook dam and the auditors visit us twice a year to make tehir investigations. "Everything satisfactory" was their verdict.

RETURN COLOGNE
 RAIDS EXPLAINED
Ministry of Economic War; fare Works Out Details
 for Second Trips
By WALTER LOGAN United Press Staff COrreSnondentl

tUn1te0 Press Stan COrreSpOndent)
 London, June 18.-CUP) - The Royal Air Force smashes Cologne or Dusseldorf, Essen or Dortmund with one of the great raids of the war, causing wholesale devastation But 8 week or month later the British bombers are pounding the same target.
 Why?
 The chances are the ministry of economic warfare suggested the re- turn raid. A new expert may have looked at a reconnaissance photo graph and said, "the bombs missed a key shop right there"
 Or another expert may have been reading a letter written to Ger man prisoner from that town which mentioned the "big White house two blocks down the street" that escap- ed bombing. And the expert may know that right beside the house is shop on which factories many miles away depend for essential parts.
 The ministry's work depends on just such details as those. A big staff maintains such close watch on German industry that Nazi war production might well ha dislocated entirely with 1000 block buster bombs if each could be drop ped on the exact spot desired. Un- fortunately, bombing is not that &C., curate.
 The staff includes many men whc have spent their lives in Germany or elsewhere in Europe They know in detail the targets of the RAF at- tacks, and may even have worked il the factories affected.
 It is not unusual for these men to be able to say when one end of a factory building is hit just what machines were housed there and eX- actly what the effect will be on the factory's production as a whole.
 The ministry had much material on German industry before the war, and it has been supplemented with intelligence reports from Germany, aerial reconnaissance, and neutral sources.
 Tn the ministry are experts on many subjects-rail transportation, munitions, optical instruments, etc The railroad experts, for example, ] determined that Germany now has four times as much track as before the war, but only two and one half times as many locomotives.
 Therefore the ministry suggested to the air ministry that locomotives should be made a special target. That accounts in some measure for the frequent raids on the Krupp Works at Essen, the Henschel Works at Kassel, the Schneider plant at Creusot, and such industrial objec- tives.
 The campaign also includes fre- quent attacks by fighter planes on locomotives, of which 150 were dam aged last month.

crying or lying on it's back. Mineral oil nose-orops have no proven value and the demonstrated dangers that they may cause in children and adults, both sick and well, are suf- flcient reason for their complete elimination.
 The mere fact that many have survived the use of such oily pre- parations is surely not to their ad- vantage; many have survived small poX and skull fractures without making either condition desirable.

 The insurance covers all city property. which includes reservoirs, but applies lnly in the case of armed invasion or bombing. It does not cover damage done by saboteurs. For the latter the city has a sepa- rate insurance policy.
 The finance board yesterday or dered the establishment of a perm anent appropriation to help finance retirement of water bonds maturing between 1853 and 1855. The board also sanctioned this transfer to this new appropriation of any surplus in the water department account of over $l00,000 each year.
 Up to this time, establishing such a permanent appropriation was not considered feasible because all ap- propriations lapse at the end of each year and any surpluses go in- to the general fund and are used to help finance the next years bud get. The most recent legislature di- rected cities to set up reserve ap- | propriations which can be used in years to come.

urging cOd-lver oil or caSter-Oil or1- to crying child may succeed in get ting as much oil into the child S lungs as into his stomach.
 The useless habit of permitting medicated salveS or vaseline to trickle down the throat is another method of insulting oil into the lungs. A few drops a day or their intake from spray for the dura- tion of the average "cold" or Seige of hay fever may be the means of injecting a considerable amount of oil into the lungs.
 MINERAL OIL DANGEROUS
 If the oil is mineral oil, it is especially dangerous, because the lungs have no means of disposing of it except by coughing, and this protective reflex is not stimulated again because of the lightness of the oil.
 The irritating effect of the oils varies with the kind. Animal oils produce the most severe reaction. Some vegetable oils appears to be entirely non-injurious, but castor oil is capable of producing extensive damage.
 Mineral oil produces inflamma- tion of the lining of the air pass ages, and in common with any oily vehicle, is capable of carrying germs along it. These, in turn, find fav- orable soil to grow on in the damaged lung tissue, thus bringing on broncho-pneumonia.
 Nature has surrounded man with enough dangers, as 1t is; it is foolish for man to add to them unneces- sarily.
 A recognition of the means by which oils are introduced into the lungs, and their elimination. are the only tools needed to avoid this needless trouble.

If no damage was in- flicted and no payments made, they said they understood no further premiums would be demanded until
