Politics
 In Passing

Local civil officials should be rath- CT proud of the fact that they have taken steps to launch their first project with funds from a post-war fund. This was provided for this week when Mayor Monagan and members of the Finance Board started the ball a-rolling for con- struction of sanitary and storm water sewers in the vast area be- tween Hill and Cooke streets and Chase avenue. This project was in- cluded in the siX-year post war plans recently advanced by city of- ficials. It is imperative because Of the fact that this rapidly-growing area is suffering from a condition that is more or less common in Wa terbury. The city is built for the most part on hard pan, which makes use of cess pools and septic tanks difficult due to drainage problems. In the territory above sanitary conditions of a deplorablc nature have developed, so officials agreed that when War Production Board restrictions would permit the necessary sewers and drains would be installed That is now possible and the work will be started very soon and financed with money taken from the citys Capital and Non- Recurring Expenditures Fund, which is a pay-aS-you-go- basis.

Conditions didn't seem to inn prove much at Hartford in the past week, although the press of the state has been filled with Capitol stories to the effect that party leaders have agreed on a program that will see everything shape when the Legislature adjourns the first Wednesday of June. All of which hasn't resulted in an announcement of minor court appointments nor in con- firmation of the commissioner ships assigned by Gov. Baldwin. It is reported that both houses will 20 on a five-day basis Monday with perhaps Saturday being thrown in for good measure, It's more than likely, though. that night sessions will take the place of the Saturday meeting. but night sessions in these days of no gasoline may not produce the ne cessary quorums for action on the important legislation remain ing to be passed.

Head scarves and kerchiefs make
smart costume accessories for wear
with summer duds and are. almost
indispensable for protecting a hair

lady, be careful how you wear one.
Such errors as tying q scarf un-
der a chin which has passed a Ger
tain age, or wrapping a kerchief
bandage-tight around imperfect fa-
cial features will mean a sacrifice
of good looks to fashion whinls or
convenience.

Early Improvements Asked
In Report on Receiving Home

planning is serious problem" at
the Receiving Home, he asserted
Children awaiting appearance before
the Juvenile Court, as well as those
found wandering the streets, the
chairman explained. are housed
there.
Lack of segregation of delinquent
from nondelinquent children at the
home was criticized in the report,
which also said children are held
too long at the institution, some
times two or three months.
No Morale Building Program.
Urging program designed to
build and maintain the morale of
the children" the report said: THE
general impression left by the insti-
tuition is not good. The building is
old and in many places badly in need
of painting and minor repairs. There
are no morale-building or recrea-
tional programs and little more than
"a formal religious program. The
facilities for indoor recreation for
the boys are entirely inadequate and
those provided for the girls are
scarcely any better
Concerning the Industrial Home
School for Colored Children, the
report called attention to a lack of
an ordered system of classification
It recommended that "a real pro-
gram of classification be developed
as basis for treatment"
The investigation reached this
conclusion: The overall impression
left by the school is good. 1t is clean
and neat; it is, for the most part,
Iattractiveiy decorated and carefully
n,ained. The tone of the pro-
gram seemed wholesome and there
appeared to be a minimum of re-
preston and regimentation." The
committee commended the staff.
Regarding the National Training
School for Girls, the report said
The general impression left by the
institution is good. The superintend-
Ient impressed the committee as be-
ing thoroughly competent and pos
sessing undoubted qualities of lead
ership, the staff is intelligent and
alert. and the atmosphere is cheer
full"
