 ITO those who have already given without hesitation l wish to Oxpr0ss the sincere thanks of every Com- Iiiunity Chest and War Fund agency" he declared.

 Tt is not on arbitrary amount based on some hypothetical figure arrived ct without careful consid- eratlon.

 He also pointed out that the share of the total quota which goes to tho National War Fund is Q reasonable amount for the Water- bury share of tho overall goal of the National War Fund"
 Speaking briefly Of War Prlson- ers' Aid, one of the 70 agencies included in the eampagln drive, Mr. Perry pointed out that there are 90 Waterbury boys in Japanese or German prison camps,
 "f think it only fair that these Waterbury boys should expect the support of those of us at home who have good jobs, pleasant homes, good food and recreation ct our dis- posai. They have given everything ,' he said flor Us back homo. It il little enough that we should give Q few dollars to provide them with some comforts. They are entitled to it and we are shifking our civic duty If Wo fail to recognize our ro- compatibility"

 boys and girls are not only maliel'
 ous, but obscene"
 Last night, squads of patrolmer
 had to be assigned to erase obscene soap markings which covered store windows in the Willow street see' ton, Supt, Carson said, Whole units of streets lights, which tho power companies can not easily replace, have been broken, leaving entire areas in darkness and ere. ating 0 highway hasNre,

Numerous windows ln private homes have been broken by stones hurled from slingshots, the superintendent said.
 Now there are community clubs all over the city ln which people are supposed to Do interested in uplifting tho community in which they live. These clubs are doing nothing with this problem which Is right on their door step" supt. Car- son declared,
 "The police get no call until after the damage Is done, The proper time for action k before It starts. It Is c problem for parents community organizations, Sunday schools and the clergy. There is no reason for children that age to be obscene If they are getting any Nt Oll,"

 Supt. carson suggested this morn. Ing that the various community clubs plan Halloween parties in places like the Anderson school gymnasium, the HopeVille school tho Washington Park Community house, etc., where the children ean Do kept off the streets under good supervision in good surroundings.
 The reason for the outbufst of vandalism, Supt, Carson explained was the lack of supervision of many children whose parents are busy working in war plants.
