NO ABATEMENT
 ON WATER BILL

 Cuse for NOn-Payment

The request of Mrs. Kathryn Holmes, II Chester avenue, that the interest, penalty and lien fees on four water bills be abated be- cause she had failed to received from city authorities the bills per- taining to her assestment was denied by the board of works bills did not constitute freedom from obligation. Board members likewise urged that all residents failing to receive quarterly water bills notify authorities.
 The corporation counsel will be forwarded, by the board, copy of the form drawn up for purposes of assessing the town of Watertown for connecting with Waterbury wa ter main at Main and Cutler streets The town has not yet officially notified the city whether it has de- cided to use the water.
 The water billing for March was $34,684 according to 8 report of Water Supt. Herbert H. Scott- Smith.
 A claim presented by Charles A. Babin in reference to a retaining wall at IT Canal street, on which a lien has been filed was rejected and disallowed by the board. MT. Babin requested that the assess ment be abatd bcaus it was lev- jed without hearing or notice to him.
 The boards action followed the receipt of an opinion from Corp. Counsel Maurice T. Healey who said that there was no basis for Mir. Babin's claims according to the records of the Board of Works.

3 BEMEDALED
 NAVY PLIERS
 BACK TO TEACH

New Orleans. April 4-CUP)- A trio of ace Navy pilots, perhaps the most destructive three flyers Japan has ever faced, are back home here for shore duty rotation. They were with Task Force 58 and they serv- ed with the gallant carrier Wasp.
 There are 51 stars on their rib- bons for participating in 5l major engagements. Together they have more than 150 missions to their credit, have three Distinguished Flying Crosses, seven Air Medals and one Presidential unit citation.
 Their group knocked down 158 Japanese planes, smashed scores of others on the ground, sank 92 ene- my ships and damaged 200 others, including two large battleshipS.
 The three flyers now are sta- tioned at the flight instructors school at the New Orleans naval air station. They are It. Frank E. Standring of Wichita Falls, Tex; It. John Magee of Evanston, Ill.,, and It. Joseph B. Mongogna of New Orleans. They are training to be flight instructors and will teach fledgling pilots the latest in battle tactics.
 Standring holds two Distin- guished Flying Crosses, two Air Medals and IT battle stars in ad- dition to the Presidential unit ci- tation. Mongogna is entitled to wear IT batle stars for service on the Wasp, one DEC and the Air Medal three times. He is credited with two enemy planes and dam- age or destruction of at least six enemy ships.
 Saratoga was awarded two air me- dals and IS stars while on the Wasp and had previously won two stars on the Saratoga. He flew in A combat missions, the last of which was one during which he hit big drydock in Manila Bay.
 The three have seen action in al- most every major Pacific air en- gaRement.

Q. I am a widow and have two sons in the service. I receive three Government checks each month. An I entitler to all of them?
 H. F. B. Westfield.
 A. You could receive three checks and be entitled to all of them. It is suggested that you ex- anime the next ones received. Tn the lower left hand corner is irdi- cated the purpose of the checks payment of Glass E allotment or Family Allowances. You could re- ceive Family Allowance from one or both sons and also Class E allot- ment from one. To the Family AL lowance the soldiers contribute an amount and the Government adds an allowance; the Class E. allot- ment is an amount Of the soldiers pay to which no allowance is added by the Government. If one soldier had both Family Allowance and Class E allotment payable to you, payment would be made in two cheeks.
 Q. I had two sons in service and have 8 flag with two stars in my window. One of my sons died a short time ago! should I still leave both stars up?
 A. When a soldier is discharg- ed from the service the blue stal should be removed. A discharge en. blem may be substituted If yol wish. If your son died while stil on active duty, gold star may bt shown for him instead of the blue

PROPOSE FEDERAL
 HOMES FOR VETS
Porter Tract May Be Re- served for Returning
 ServiCemen

Timothy Sullivan, local manager of the federal housing projects has been asked by the city housing au- thority to forward to federal hous- ing authorities the suggested plans of the committee that the Porter housing tract here be opened foi rental to returning servicemen.
 The tract has been idle since com pletion because of the decrease ot immigrant workers at the time ot its construction. Lester Young chairman of the authority, pointed out that such 8 site would be source of revenue as well as aiding in alleviatnig condition of un. availble housing quarters now ex. istent here.
 The board went on record as re- questing through the Federal Pub- lie Housing Administration, the re- laxing of restrictions which specify that 113 units in the development be available only to immigrant war workers.
 MT. Young added that the request of his unit would not apply to the Hamilton Heights and Warner Gardens projects which he said were well-f1lled now.
 The group met with Mayor John Monagan to discuss postwar hous- ing and slum clearance at the City Hall yesterday. A report is being prepared for the MIA on future housing needs in Waterbury to re- place Sub-standard housing.
 Members attending the meeting were Richard Goss, Joseph DeLaur- etis. John Driscoll, Miss Agnes FitZ- patrick and MT. Young.
