asked, chow you got out of Oslo in

"There again." Zorie answered,
"you are embarrassing me. To an

He studied her. The prickling
was extending into Zorie's hands
and fingers. She tried to lift her
hands into her lap. She succeeded,
but the pain almost made her cry
out.

came from the living-room, "any

Nicholas Guerrero, 40, 127 Pearl street, was fined $100 on a charge of driving while under the influ- ence of liquor in city court today. Judge T. E. Conway remitted $25 of the fine in view of the mans previous good record. The case was appealed to Common Pleas court by Atty. John F. Tobin.
 Motor Patrol Lieut.. Patrick Ho- bart testified that he observed the accused drive down Bank street on Nov. 25 in an cratic fashion, and turn left into the path of another car, precipating an accident. Lieut.. Hobart and Desk Lieut.. Walter Ahearn testified that Guerrera was under the influence of liquor.
 Early in the session Judge Con- way ordered $500 bonds called in the cases of Eula Ellington, 34, and William Sutherland, 62, both of 102 Pearl street, after Prosecutor Fred erick w. Palomba informed him that neither had appeared to an- swer to charges of assault and breach of the peace. Clerk Albert J. Bronsky read the name of Char lotte Weisman as surety for Miss Ellington, and the name of Joseph Levine as surety for MT. Suther- land.

Mir. Fitzgerald said that approxi- Fnately 365,7 ,720 men and women were employed by 406 Connecticut manufacturing firms in December of last year and that this increased to 366,562 men and women in Jan uary. The employment trend he said, was rising slowly and accord ing to the anticipated demands filed by these manufacturers would rise steadily within the next few months unless a series of large cut-backs are thrown into the state due to the sudden termination of war with Germany.
 [ Draft Requirements
 selective service, MT. Fitzgerald said, continues to draw the man power from state factories and 1t will be necessary to replace these with women workers. The number of men which selective service has withdrawn from the industrial labor market can best be indicated by the fact that on January 3l, 1924 approximately 423,122 men and wo- men were employed by these 40d firms in Connecticut. In January of this year the total employment was 366,562 men and women or a drop of 56,560 workers with the majority of them men who were called into the armed forces. i MT. Fitzgerald said that the re-

ports of these 406 manufacturing firms show that they will prob- ably require 20257 additional work. CTS by March of this year. This rise is expected to continue and aggre- gate 25,624 workers in May and continue to climb to 28,5l1 workers in July.
 Only one city out of 18 from which these manufacturing firms arc reporting an anticipated rise in em- ployment over the next few months, will go against the upward swing during this period. That city &C., cording to the survey is Meriden which is expected to show a drop of 269 workers from the present peak in March. This decline is expected to be reduced in May to POS workers with a complete re- versal in trend expected in July or net gain of 57 workers over the January figures.
 Help Needed
 Cities in Connecticut in which substantial amount of additional workers will be needed in the next few months include Bridgeport Hartford, New Haven, Waterbury and New Britain. A steady in- crease in employment has beer noted in Hartford from the low point of 62,455 workers in Decem- Der of last year. Reports by Hart ford manufacturers indicate a rist to 65,583 workers in March ant further rise to 66,l01 men ane women workers in July of this year This will be a need of 3263 mor' men and women by July l.
 In New Haven some 53 firms re- ported a steady rise in employ ment from 35,888 in December o last year to 36,192 men and womel in January. These firms reported that they will need approximatel, 4152 more workers in March witt anticipated needs rising to 6,70 men and women workers by Jul of this year.

 Clarence F.

2O257 Additional Workers Needed By State Industri'
DEBT SERVICE PAYMENTS MADE Figures Released Show Total of $434,508 or l-3
 of Total Due

The City of Waterbury has paid $434.598.75 in debt service so far in l945, which represents approxi- mately one-third of the total due this year. The latter figure, &C., cording to the budget appropria- tion items, is $1,334,l11.25. Interest payments on general obligations during January and February have totaled $83,752.50, while those Un water bonds for a similar period were $l1O,846.25.
 Redemption payment amount to $l63, 1000. general; and $77,O0O, wa ter.
 Debt service for the City of Wa terbury on the basis of the present outstanding bonds will show a steady decrease from now until 1883, when there will be a slight increase for following four years due to the heavy water bond pay ments centered in that period. How ever, by 1853, general obligations, unless bonds are sold between now and then, will have dropped to ap- proximately $500000. The present schedule of general bond redemp- tions calls for the last one to be made in 1874, whereas the last pay ment on existing watre bonds will not be made until 1893.
 At the present time interest on outstanding water bonds is in excess of the amount of annual redemp- tion, but this will change in 1947 Water bond redemption will in- crease in 1853, the peak years being 1955-56, and will be greater at thi' period than general obligation re- demption figures.
 Since 194O the city has paid of. more than $4,000,000 in bonded in debtedness. At the end of 1945 thu total in outstanding bonds will bt $13, ,781 800, comprised of $6,336,oO0 water bonds, and $7445,500 genera | bonds.
