necessity for heavy taxation for thirty years to create a needlessly large reserve.
 Attacking the "unsoundness" of charges being made by MT. Snyder and Republican leaders the Mayor cited the following:
 MT. Snyder says no one wanted the bill. pr. Reed, pension expert of the Public Expenditure Council, stated, The bill represents a very great improvement. The governor, q Republican, after due consider ation signed the bill and it became law. That is the history of the pen- sion bill. It is a record of long and careful consideration starting in l943 and backed by paid profes- sional advice. It is @ record which included consideration of two sub- stitute bills presented to the legis- lature by interested groups.
 It is a record of a bill framed largely under Republican auspices and altered ln only one important respect at the request of this ad- ministration. This is a bill that the Republican candidate for mayor claims was framed at the City Hall three days before the close of the l945 session and rushed to Hartford, passing both Houses without due consideration in the dawn.to-d dusk session. Is he fooling you? That's what he's trying to do. doubt however, if the people of Water bury and our city employees are as gullible as MT. Snyder seems tc think.
 Imposes Burdens
 MT. Snyder made two other reck- less and dangerous statements or Lthe same subject. He said that the bill not only removes the benefits to which city employees are en- titled, but also imposes larger bur- dens on them. Tn this connection the administration moved to re. store benefits which the comn1is. sion proposed to eliminate and ir some respects the bill actually con. fers greater benefits than employe' previously had. Representatives oi the employees also expressed theii willingness to assume the new con. tributions.
 MT. Snyder further said, If thC new and present plan is financially sounder than the old one, 1t is be- cause of deductions from city en' ployes' pay This statement is false It is a cheap appeal for support O city employees. The fact is that u11' der the new plan the city will Ncon' tribute twice It's present amount ailt between three and four dollars fol every one contributed by employees
