 The board is empowered by the charter to declare the office vacant If man enters the service, many believe. There have been only two precedents in the present war, these being ex-Burgess Joseph Dinneny and Welfare Supt. Leo Scully. A controversy ragged after MT. Din- neny entered the Army in 1941, but 1t was settled when he sent in @ letter of resignation some weeks after entering the service. Bur gess J. Francis Cullen was named to fill the vacancy.
 The welfare board acted differ ently in the case of Supt. Scully. It gave Mir. Scully an indefinite leave of absence and named Miss Kath- erine Brennan acting superinten- dent. MT. Scully did not submit a resignation.

 A contest for the appointment, if a vacancy is declared, is reported although names of those seeking the job have not been disclosed.
 The board is expected to receive an offer from Mrs. Theresa Palmer for land on Rubber avenue, owned by the town, for which the town has no further use. Mrs. Palmer was asked at the last session to submit price at the next session. She plans to reopen a gasoline sta- tion there.

Naugatuck, Jan. 3-Damage was estimated at several thousand dol lars and a fireman was injured in & blaze Saturday morning at Sweeney's art store, 213 Church street, in the four-story Weary 1 building.
 Veteran fireman Maurice Scan- lon suffered deep gash in his right thigh when he kicked the plate glass panel in the front doc rto effect entrance. pr. Victor A. Casella treated him and took IA stitches to close the wound.
 Fire Marshal Michael F. Shea said | the fire was caused by defective wiring near the front of the store. He said Eugene Sweeney, proprietor, could not definitely estimate the damage, but Mir. Shea placed it at several thousand dollars. Much of this was the result of smoke and the intense heat which blistered mer- chandise.
 Lester Brodeur manager of the adjoining Donovan's drug store, and | WOlh OA AlA CALlCA4 RACCNNAAt ed what might have been a serious blaze. for the brick building houses several stores on the first floor and offices and club rooms on the other.
 MT. Brodeur heard the noise of articles falling from the display counter in the store which was closed because of the holiday. He investigated and found the blaze in Police Chief John J. Gormley, in
 'sIo}s sul 10 9Ivd 4uoIJ qua Donovan's pharmacy at the time' turned in box alarm 24 at the cor ner of Maple and Church streets.
 Most of the fire damage was con- fined to the front part of the store, but the heat from the blaze dam aged articles well to the rear of the sctore, MT. Sweeney said. The major part of the damage appeared to be caused by smoke.
 The fire apparently had been burning some time before 1t was dis | covered, but during most of the time . it was working its way from the wires to the store floor. Several tables and valuable articles on them were burned, MT. Sweeney said, and most of the remainder of the stock was damaged by smoke.
 When firemen, led by Chiefly John J. Sheridan, arrived at the scene, the door was locked from both inc side and outside, and the doors glass panel had been cracked by the heat. Fireman Scanlon gashed his leg through in attempting to kick out the unbroken part of the panel.
 Fire Chief Sheridan said MT. Scenlon will be unable to return to duty for an indefinite period. How ever. Dr. Casella exressed the opin- ion the injury will not incapacitate the fireman long.
 The blaze was extinguished with in half an hour. The fire depart ment did a fine job, MT. Sweeney said. Bremen had to use gas masks in getting to the rear to open win dows there. the smoke was so thick.
 There is insurance on the store and its contents, MT. Sweeney said.
 Firemen extingished two brush fires Saturday. One near the home of Charles Jazina, 31 Marshall ave- nue. The other was near the home of John J. Linskey, Hill street. Both blazes were extinguished quickly.

Hartford, Jan. S-CUP) P)-Easing of citizenship requirements by congress for aliens who have children in the armed forces of the United States was urged today in a resolution ap- proved by Hartford lodge No. 3S3, Sons of Italy.
 Thousands of Connecticut aliens would be affected by the proposed legislation which would lift the lit- eracy clause in citizenship require- ments, and the clause concerning thorough knowledge of the constitu- tion.
 A similar resolution was adopted by the national convention of the Sons of Italy, urging passage of res- olutions already introduced in Con- gress The measure would not alter the clause restricting an alien with a criminal record from becoming a citizen.
 Tt is the opinion of lodge mem- bers," said the Hartford resolution, "that an alien who has been an as- set to his community for a num- Der of years and who has lived as respectfully as an American citizen should not be denied citizenship because he was not lucky enough to go to school"
