It was pointed out that the aver

three dollars each and that if the
club could collect 1000 volumes,
il would be the equivalent of a
contribution of $4,000 to the city.

Waterburians scurried for their woolens and sought in vain for wood to get furnace fires going when the mercury dropped approxi- mately 40 degrees over the week. end. Through the mercury hovered around 38 degrees in this area last night, frosts were repored in north ern parts of the state.
 Simultaneously residents had their usual trouble with the change in the time schedules. Many e person was confused when 1t came to turn back the hands of the clock, since practically all time- pieces on downtown buildings were not adjusted to the new schedule.
 But thousands reporting for work this morning admitted that extra hour of rest had proved beneficial and were pleased with the official ending of war time which has been in effect since January %, i042.
 Congress advanced the nations clocks one hour during the second month of the war to aid war pros duction by saving power, light and fuel. The War Production Board, has estimated that war time saved l,500,000 kilowatt hours of electricity yearly, making 1t possible to divert to essential production additional machinery that would have been needed. The time schedule also saved one million tons of coal a year.

DroHUpson For Mayor e. O. P. Move
 Younger Element
 Wont Leaders Co
 Accept

Innrgent groups within the local Republican party may threaten drastic means at tonights meeting of the party's candidacy committee, 1t was reported today, when the name of former Town Chairman J, Warren Upson may be submitted as a mayoralty candidate as a means of embarrassing top leaders of the c. o. P.
 As reported here previously, these same leaders have been accused of fumbling all plans in seeking a candidate for the party's top post as well as those for the posts of controller, tax collector, city clerk and others.
 While 1t does not seem likely that the name of MT. Upson will for- mally reach the floor at tonight's nominating session, 1t Is indicative of the mood of many of the party workers who feel that their leaders nave made Q debacle and traveSty of the entire city election plans.
 Since 1t is known that Mir. Upson does not choose to accept the may orally candidacy, the move to pre- sent his name is seen as one in- tended to openly embarass the top leadership of the COP. Since these leaders have been unable to produce candidate for the mayors post the move is designed to test their true intent in actually seeking to furnish one for the coming Novem- Der election.
 When called at his office this morning, MT. Upson asserted em- phatically that his intentions were the same as they were week ago. T am definitely not going to run for mayor" he said,
 AS the merry-go-round for a suit able Republican candidate moved faster today, 1t was also rumored that Town Chairman Richard Ben- sen might accept the nomination.
 Back at his desk at the Chase Go. ofnceS after a three-day absence from the city, MT. Bensen laughted heartily when informed he was be- ing mentioned as a rnayoralty can- didate. "Of course there are SO many rumors current anything can happen" he said. But there's ab. solutely no truth in this one."
 Republican leaders are still hope ful that ex-Judge Beardsley will accept the nomination today, 1t is reported. The judge, considered the best votegetter In COP circles, re. fused to run when approached at the eleventh hour-two days before the city convention was to take place. It was later adjourned until tomorrow night. It Is reported that the Republicans were hopeful of obtaining a veteran to oppose Mayor Monagan, and when all sources had proved fruitless MT. Beardsley was sougth.
 However, as far as could be learned today, MT. Beardsley was stil issuing the same reply to the COP pleas-an adamant No"
