ADVERTIsEMENT
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-11-14
Borbers Moy Reduce Work Day Schedule
 Shorter Hours Held
 Inducement to
 VeterunS

Cutting the hair on your head; cutting your whiskerS-and maybe occasionally cutting capers-are all everyday duties of local barbers; but now they've decided to add an- other bit of cutting to the program they've proposed, at a meeting o1 the Waterbury Master Barbers' asso- citation. held last night, to cut five hours from the weekly schedule.
 President of the association, John Heating, said that, at present, local shops which are closed all day Mon- day, operate on week days from 8 a. m. to p. m, and on Saturday from a. m. to D. m. The plan, as presented to 50 members who at- tended the meeting, calls for closing a half hour earlier on week days and a full hur earlier on Saturdays.
 Heating stated that, the new plan, designed to absorb the boys com ing home from the service" would be an inducement for them to re- turn to the trade. He said that other businesses have reduced hours, and therefore a returning veteran, seeking employment, will not re- turn to a trade he left if the hours are long and fail to offer substantial returns for the amount of time spent in the shop.
 He pointed out that a veteran is unwilling to spend considerable time working at the barber trade, while others, working less hours, receive as much or more compensation.
 Four new members were accepted at last nights meeting; and it was announced that election of officers will take place at the next meet ing on December II.
 Members voted O close all day Thanksgiving Day, Nov. p and re- main open Monday, Nov. l9 instead. A $1O0 Victory Bond was purchased by the association. Albert Schia- yone, state barber commissioner, will make his inspection of all barber shops in the city for the next two weeks.
 New members accepted in the club were Peter Pettruzzio, Nieho- las Impressa DelDhis Fradette, and Samuel Garafalo.
 The roster of new pembers to be initiated at the next meeting are Camille Crosse, Henry Ferraro, Frank Jugllano, Anthony Delizia, Emile Poirer, Michael Carpentieri, Cosmo DeNoto and Prank Maya lupo.
 Ofieers of the association in ad- dition to Heating, are Emil Julian, yiee-president; Michael Colitti, secretary-treasurer, Anthony Car dinale, recording secretary; and Louis Nardiello, assistant seere- tary-treasurer,
