John j. Driscoll, secretary treas
urer Of the CLIO council today urged
the support Of labor organizations
toward the success Of the present
"scrap-bank" drive. Mr.. Driscoll
emphasized that the workingman
in industry should be especially
conscious Of the need for continued
and sufficient flow Of steel scrap
during the coming winter.
"The responsibility" he added,
Should be with every man, whether
he is professionally employed, or
factory worker, to dig out the
scrap from his own premises and be
sure 1t Is ready for collection TO-
morrow morning"
Beyond this, I feel" he added,
That labor should take the initia-
tive in volunteering to local War
Councils such personnel as may be
needed In the actual collection for
this drive" It was urged that all
such volunteers should call the To-
cal Civilian Defense office at 4-090e
and register.

GREAT BUILDING
| PERIOD LOOMING
DR.. Husband Speaks Of
Future Prospects at
Ohio Convention

DR.. william H. Husband, executive
vice-president Of the local First Fed
eral Savings & Loan association was
recent principal speaker at the
55th annual convention Of the Ohio
Savings and Loan League, held at
Columbus, Ohio.
Post war problems pertinent to
housing and It's financial picture
was the central theme of the panel
forum, reports DR.. Husband. Other
principal speakers were Mrs. Samuel
Rosenman, chairman Of the National
Committee on Housing Emergency,
Inc; Ex-Governor Myer Y. Cooper,
Of Ohio; Raymond Skirwin, counsel
for the Ohio Savings g. Loan league.
This yeal' annual convention pur-
posely stressed the postwar hous-
ing picture as a means Of clarifying
It's identity with the national con-
sideration now being given to such
q problem.
DR.. Husband stated that one Of the
particular points he stressed was
that Of attempting to more closely
determine the volume Of building
that would take place annually. after
the war, and pointed out that esti-
mates heard, Of the construction Of
100000 housing units were out Of
proportion, and that the figures
would more likely approach a total
Of 100000 as possibility and 100000
as a probability. He stated that the
general consensus Of the gathering
favored this view.
He said that he likewise offered
the opinion that a great part of the
demand for postwar building will
and should be based on the approach
Of estimating the carrying cost Of a
house after Its construction and not
solely on the initial outlay.
Mrs. Rosenman and Mr.. Skirwin
were understood to have engaged in
a spirited debate on the matter Of
federal housing, with Mrs. Rosen-
man favoring such action on the
part Of federal authorities when and
II the private building industry Is
unable to uphold the market. Mr..
Skirwin, 1t Is understood, was in
favor Of the fdeeral authorities not
SASSA AAt9 OAAS HASshAO aV ouSLl " bAAAlCs
Recent figures pertinent to the cur
rent building situation, as pictured
about the country, show that an
average Of 10000 family dwellings
per month are being constructed,
over and above the $4,000 housing
units already constructed by the fed
eral authorities, wit. an additional
$4,000 units being proposed for con-
struction.
Speaking on pre-fabricated houses
being built after the war, DR.. Hus-
band said that 1t was his belief that
such type construction would prove
to be more Of q yard stick for esti-
mating the cost Of erecting the stan
dard type home rather than as q
definite trend that should be con-
sidered as affecting the volume to be
estimated.
1t was reported that the confer.
ence was heavily attended and It was
estimated that some 700 or more at
tended the principal banquet.

because he was Of the opinion,
contrary to the Board Of Fire Com
missionerS. that 1t should have In.
cluded the cost Of a booster pump.
In 1910 he again voted against the
entire budget because one salary
raise had been eliminated. Then,
after the budget had been adopted
by the Board Of Aldermen, he refus.
ed to vote In favor Of levying o tax
in accordance with the budget as
adopted"
Personal Whlm
Here was clear case" Mr..
Healey continued" Of Mr.. walkers
willingness to put the city's whole
financial condition In danger merely
to satisfy q personal whim." Ger
tainly," he added" you do not want
such capricious judgment exercised
In matters Of vital financial I'M
portance to the city"
He continued by attacking such
other matters Of the Republican
candidates record, as the alder
manic leaders refusal TO vote In
favor Of setting up an item for
removal Of the old trolley tracks
when the government was seeking
scrap steel; his refusal to pay for
business machines that the city had
been using for 8 months, his oppos-
Ing the installation Of parking me-
tiers; refusal to favor the park de-
partment'S purchase Of land near
the municipal golf course.
Mr.. Healey praised the record Of
the present administration stressing
Its sound financial record. His ad-
dress was heard at 2 p. m. over
WBRY.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-10-22

Citing the financial soundness Of
the city under the administration,
inaugurated by the late Vincent A.
Scully and carried on by Mayor
Monagan, he pointed to the net re-
duction in the city debt Of 2 million
dollars, a reduction in the tax rate
Of 2 and one half million and
annual SURPRISES averaging one half
million.
Sound Finance
AS an example Of the sincere
efforts Of the late Mayor Scully to
definitely establish a background Of
sound finance for the city he cited
the appointments Of T. E. Olsen,
city budget director, together with
other members Of the city finance
board as, Orton P. Camp, Robert l..
Coe, ex-senator Edward p. Egan,
John p. Brophy, the late controller
Thomas M. Conlon and his successor
Neil F. Maloney.
1.-THE program that the Mayor and
the late Controller Conlon put
through, to assure the financial sue
cess Of the city, has been carried on
by Mayor Monagan and his party
associates"
Mr.. Healey then questioned the
qualifications Of Republican mayor
atty candidate John j. Kearney and
candidate for controller Burton
Walker. Referring to Mr.. Kearney's
questioning of the city surplus and
the denial that taxes have been re-
duced, he said. HE has but to look
at the city budget for the years that
he has mentioned to know that such
q statement Is a Misrepresentation
OF true facts. "All Taxpayers In
Waterbury" he added, know that
the tax rate set in 1910 was 32h
mills and that last year 1t was re-
duced to 80 mills"
Scoring Mr.. Kearney's statement
that the tax burden and tax rise
should be stopped in Waterbury,
Mr.. Healey declared 1t to be false
saying war time imitation Is caused
by the excess Of purchasing power
as over the scarcity Of available
consumers goods. These are national
uroblems and they have no rela-
ton to the local problem"
Referring to Burton Walker. Re-
publican aldermanic leader, Mr
Healey said:
"In 1889 he voted against the
entire proposed city budget simply
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-10-22

In q letter transmitted TO the
board Of finance at yesterdays reg
ular meeting, Thorvald E. Olsen,
city budget director reported that
the city will have a surplus at the
end Of the current year OF $474.sSS.
Mr.. Olsen based his estimate on
the computation that the excess Of
the actual receipts over the esti-
mated receipts will amount to 1901. :
063, and that the unexpected bal
ance Of appropriations for the year
will amount to $173,875. The two
combined equal the above surplus
figure.
In his report to the board he ad-
vised that the board should give con-
sideration to q margin Of safety in
posting this amount as a factor IN
next years budget estimate, and
although he stated that he believed
the estimates determining the figure
are reasonably conservative he
pointed out that they are estimates
only and not real figures realized
as result OF closing the city's books.
He, therefore recommended that
the board, In financing next years

in this valuable book:
Are you entitled to q refund Of
all or part Of your income tax for

He further recommended that the
difference between the actual sur
plus determined at the end Of the
year and the amount appropriated
in the 1914 budget be transferred to
the Reserve for Capital and Nom
Recurring Items" for financing post
war projects.
The possibility Of purchasing the
pointers, used on the dials Of the
city parking meters, from q local
manufacturer was discussed at yes
terday's meeting and finally voted
down for the time being. It Is I'M
derstood that q local concern can
make these pointers for Is cents less
than the Rhodes Manufacturing
Company who now supplies the city
with these items. 1t Is reported
that the reason for the boards re-
lection was based on the fact that
the request submitted by the police
department had not been previously
submitted to the police board and
could not be acted upon by the
finance board in any official capac-
ity. It was pointed out that II such
arrangements can be made the city
will stand to save some $3.50 per year
on this item which 1t Is reported
suffers heavy damages yearly.
A request Of pay raises OF 20 per-
cent was petitioned OF the board yes.
terday in @ communication received
from the welfare department. This
is asked In addition to the cost OF
living increase Of $500 given last year
and Is asked for all employees OF
the department. Specific increases
were asked for Wallace Inglis, chief
clerk. and for the nutritionist Of the
welfare department.
