WAGE SCHEDULE.
 DISCUSSION HELD
Chairman WOllen of Re. giOnaI War Labor Board
 Presides in TOrringtOn

Saul Wollen, chairman of regional War Labor Board, presided at yes- terday's meeting of representatives of management and labor before the full VILE board in discussion of the age rates in Torrington among factory employees. The meeting had been requested by the c. I. o. City Council and was attended by all representatives of both parties.
 Representatives of management went on record as claiming the wage rates to be stable and accused labor leaders there of agitating for the higher scale.
 Union leaders pressed home argu- ments that the factory representa- tives did not give union authorities proper representation at the wage rate meetings nor did they present a true picture of the wage conditions there.
 Representatives of the board came to Torrington several months ago to make re-survey of wage rates here but the board has not announced any results of the survey, nor has 1t said whether ornot 1t considers the information sufficient enough to be considered as basis for chang ing rates here.

 Falck explained that the supply of gas Is normal but that the cold weather has resulted in heavier drains on the supply, principally by householders for extra heat.
 The WIPE official indicated the emergency was so great that clos ure of schools on Monday to save gas would not be considered toe drastic a step if local officials wished to do so.
 He told United Press that the current 72-hour ban on gas service to amusement places would prob ably be repeated several times in the affected area before the winter was over.

Politics
 -m- Passing

waterbury will be prominent in the postwar construction world judging by plans revealed at the meeting of the board of finance this week. Although there was no com- plete resume of what the city hop cd to do after the war ended, enough was said and indicated to realize that Waterbury public officials haven't been asleep. but have been preparing for the day when condi- tions are normal and the city can try to catch up with time borrowed for the war effort. Not only has the city plans for public projects actually in the blueprint stage, but At is considering seriously how It can finance such a tremendous pro- gram without imposing a tremen- dous burden on the taxpayers. The Monagan administration is not com- mitted to a gigantic bond-noating program, despite the fact that 1t is seeking permission for $2,600. 900 worth of bonds from the legislature. But 1t does want to be prepared for 6 sudden cessation of hostilities, which would certainly be the signal for municipalities to start work on projects that now face the start Ing line.
