added that the entire country had
been "late" In dealing with postwar
problems.
DR.. Dawson, chairman of the con-
ference, said the report from the
States was in response to a letter
he had written the 48 governors
after preliminary conference in
January which was also held at
NEA headquarters at 1901 Six
teenth street NV.
His letter said the practice of
some States of accrediting every
educational enterprise wishing to
share in CT tuition fees was a
record that stinks to high heaven .
Dy. Dawson, who is director OF
rural service for the NEA, said
several States have put through
excellent programs to protect the
veterans from educational profiteers
He mentioned Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin, Connecticut, Michigan and New
York, and said there were probably
others that should be included In
that list.
He said Nebraska, Kansas, Mary
land and Virginia all had good pre-
cautionary programs pending before
the Legislature, and that the Gov
ernor of South Carolina, on receipt
of the NEA letter, had called a spe-
cial meeting of legislative leaders.
Says Estimates Must Be Raised.
He pointed out that estimates OF
last year, based on the hope that
the war in Europe would end in 1914
must be increased. Those estimates
were that $4,000, ,000, 900 woulo be ex-
pended for education under the Gl
bill In six years. This would be
about $3.50 900 900 year. and an ad-
dition of more than 10 per cent oi
the $4,000, ,000, 900 the United States
is estimated to spend annually or
all education.

ton profiteers, DR.. Dawson placed

down so the search began again in

BY then other ships had come to join
the search, picking up many more sur

 To Direct
 Activities

Stephen J. O'Brien, who, for the past two years has been associated with the U. s. Time Corp, in the capacity of personnel manager, an- I1ounced today that in the very near future he will open Q private em- ploynent service, to be known as the Stephen J.. OBrien Employment Agency.
 MT. O,Brien pointed out that the agency. which will be located in the Palomba Building, Grand street, will be the only one of It's kind in the city. There is another employment agency, he said, the United States Employment Agency, with which we are all familiar, but the new service, planned by MT. O'Brien, will differ from this Federal Bureau in several respects.
 MT. O'Brien stated that there will be no necessity of an applicant reg istering for 8 position. All that is necessary is for those who seek jobs to call at the office where they will state what 1t is they desire to work at, and the agency will do the rest If the agency is unable to furnish the applicant position, MT. OBrien pointed out, no obligation on the part of the job seeker will be incur red.
 MT. O'Brien Is well qualified to manage such position. Aside from his position with the U. s. Time Corp; the aWterbury man has held @ position for two years with the United States Employment Service, where he was supervisor of employ ment. Prior to this he was connect ed with the State Labor Depart ment, from which, at the outbreak of the war, he was transferred to the USES.
 MT. O'Brien graduated from Cros- by High School and Holy Cross Col lege, and since his graduation from the latter institution, he has been connected and associated with the labor situation personally, not only in Connecticut, but also in New York, where, in aIl unofficial capac- ity, he was associated with the na- tionally known employment bureau, Personnel Service Bureau of New York.

Women Voters Heur Addresses
 Candidates Ex-
 ehonge Greetings,
 Comments

Top candidates of both political parties, speaking before the League of Women Voters yesterday at the Elton, provided one of the most inc teresting sessions in prediction series. Democratic candidates de- tended their administration with facts and figures, as Republicans continued to hurl charges that in cumbents seeking reelection had provided a "do-nothing administra- ton" and that their postwar plans were in "mothballs."
 Mayor Monagan, the opening speaker, pointed to the progress which has been made during the city's administration and outlined the city's postwar plans in detail. He cited the soundness of the city's finances, and pointed with pride to the work which has been done by the education department, child care centers, and City Planning Commission.
 "The Democrats should be elect- ed because it's administration has been alert and efficient, and if we are going into office in November, our plans for making Waterbury a better city, which have been cur- tailed by the war, will satisfy every Waterburian, I am sure," he con- cluded.
 Asserting as he has in all cam paign speeches that the city needs "a businesslike administration" Raymond Snyder, COP candidate, told the wornen's league he was Q business man and not a politician. He reiterated that the city's post war plans are in "mothballs,', and declared the Democratic adminis- tration deserves no credit for sav- ing the city money, as explained by Mayor Monagan, because little money could be spent because of wartime curtailments.
 Other speakers were City Con- troller Cornelius P. Maloney, Harry Krasow, COP candidate for town clerk; Mrs. Mary 0. Kilmartin, town clerkfn Charles J. Velte, COP can- didate for tax collector; Tax Col- lector Humbert Mangini; William Sirica, COP candidate for city clerk and SergetBelanger, city treasurer.
 Mrs. P. s. Van Valkenburg, pre- sided and Mrs. Donald Adelherg in- troduced the candidates.
