New Clothing
 Orders Given

Washington, March 20.-CUP)- The Office of Price Administration continued its campaign to cut living costs today with new orders for re- tail clothing and furniture field.
 Some 100000 retail stores were or dered to freeze" their markups- the difference between what they pay for an article and what they sell it for-at yesterdays level.
 This is a complete change from the former procedure, under which retail ceiling prices for furniture and clothing were frozen at the highest price charged by the seller in March. 1922.
 Price Administrator Chester BoWles explained that the new set up was intended to pass along to consumers the lower prices expect ed to take effect under the govern ment's new low-cost clothing pro- gram and under similar low-cost furniture and house furnishings program now being planned.
 Bowles said the former method was lat best a stop-gap measure" " and that since it was initiated re- tail clothing prices had risen 15 per cent and home furnishings prices IT per cent.
 BowleS said the new order would have the immediate effect of pre- venting increases in the cost of articles now on the market. And as the lower-cost goods begin go- ing on sale under the governments new program, he said, dealers will be required automatically to reduce prices to consumers when their own costs decline"

(By Democrat Staff Writer)
 The picture of Frank KirSchner, messenger and handy-man for the Waterbury Democrat might be cap toned Spring or Man And A Bicycle or Who Cares The Ration ing Woes or You're Never Too Old, and We will let you pick out the one you think best for any you choose will be appropriate.
 Frank came to The Democrat last year in answer to the manpower shortage and now We all wish that the manpower shortage had been around before this, for he has come to mean whole complement of handy-men as he fulfillS his many duties plus the courtesies that are not necessarily part of his duties. Headaches are common in the newspaper business and Frank IS out of the office and back with aspirin before the sufferer reaches for the hemlock; the mail is always on time as he hurries back and forth from the post-office three and four times a day; an occasional pack of cigarettes is produced from his voluminous and fertile pockets; if you want something fixed he can fix it. and so it goes.
 Anyone doubting harbingers of Spring let him cease with all doubts for that bicycle, in the picture, is proof that the vernal season is with us. If you were siXty-one years old and had been riding bicycles the better part of that time, you too would be an expert, as is Frank, as to know when to haul it out of the cellar, polish it up and glide down the street scornful of the last fad ing blusterings of winter. We are willing, here on The Democrat, to ride along with such a theory to the extent of tossing into a cocked- hat all the barometers, charts, mechanical devices and what-have- you, and announce officially that SPRING IS HERE!
 We have even further proof for Frank has shed his many gaily col ored raimentS he wore during the winter, and has abandoned his go- loshes and storm rubbers. We sort of miss those garments though. Especially the shirts. They bright ened up our entire winter. Varie- gated, polychromatic, Illuminating might best describe their hueS: 'Joseph's Coat looked like an old sack in comparison.
 A personality just as vital and exciting as the shirts he wears, Frank is an edification, a man of practical learning. Listening to him is like reading the best in en- cyclopedae. He has conducted a laundry business, raised chickens, served as a former tax collector of Union City, built billboards, worked as a skilled shop-hand, plus numer- ous other enterprises all of which he made go of and all of which he terminated whenever he felt like it. We don't like to use the term rugged individualist because 1t has become trite and meaningless but in its truest sense Frank must be the original, the blueprint, the pat | tern.
 A collector, a connoisseur, he can produce for you a copy of Bernarr MacFadden's Physical Culture

LABOR INSTITUTE

A total of 4,309 feet of water pipe was laid during the year by the de- partment. Streets were laid out com- prising total length of 4,o62 feet while 2,357 feet of street lines were surveyed.
 Contained in the repol are fig ures relating to the city's water con- sumption increase during the war years. Tn 1940 total of 2,772 mil- lion gallons were consumed; 1941, @ total of 3,192 million gallons; 1942 a total of 3,306 million gallons and in 1943 8 consumption of 3,754 gall Ions.
 The Pitch reservoir and the new pipe line which were constructed fundamentally as wartime measures are noted in the report. At that time the reservoir, now in operation, was incomplete but the pipe line built during the administration of Mayor VinceSt A. Scully over pro- tests of Republican officials deliv- cred SIS million gallons during 1943 or an average of IF million gallons per day. The war demands by indus try on the city's water supply more than revealed the need for the pipe line construction. In addition, the pipe line made it possible to main- tain practically constant pressure in the low service system despite a substantial increase in water needs.
 Additional activities of the en- gineering office under the direction of MT. Root also are noted such as streets laid out, building lines estab- lished, assessment maps made, new drawings, street and boundary mon- uments laid, curbing, retaining walls, etc.
 MT. Root pays tribute to the men of the department now serving with the armed forces. These are; U. S. Army, 1st Lieut.. George Corcoran 2nd Lieut.. Carlton G. Provost, Sgt Salvatore A. Faiia; Cpl. John D. Donahue, Cpl. Joseph LeClair, Cadet James A. Morrow. Serving with the seabees, P. O. 2nd Class Franklin H Browne, P. O. 2nd class Edward Nagle and P. O., 3rd Class James A Loughlin. Robert D.

magazine, issue of February, 1903, or discourse with erudition and armored logic on Why Man Should Work But One Day a Week." tenet that warns our soul everytime we hear of it.
 The following incident, while but a vignette, best characterizeS his ingenuity and refreshing audacity. You have all heard of the man who sawed off part of one leg of lop-sided chair to even up the bal ance, only to find himself eventu- ally saving off all four legs. Frank is that man in reverse. eHe had divan in that condition so he sat down and sawed off the four legs first, then made four new ones and put them on, with casters. Tho divan is better than ever. That IS Self-assurnace in high-gear.
 The original inspiration, We are certain, of that popular dituy, "Don't Fence Me h. he has plans for travel after the war, by means Of working his way across the coun- try. A new kind of Johnny Ap- pleseed, we daresay, who once again will plant the seeds Of sage wisdom and the pioneering spirit of our forefatherS across the nation.
 All this just skins tine surface of Franks personality. When he walks into the office mornings, wearing the cap, the high shoes anc the pants guards on his ankles there walks into the room with hilr spirit of cracking independence strongly reminiscent of men whc walked America carrying straight squirrel rifles, wearing coon-skin caps and striding across the plain and trails with the fierce pride ot l freedom.

TEACHERS ATTEND
 PUBLIC HEARING
Visit Hartford in Support of State Aid Bill; City's
 Grant $ll9,7OO

Members of the Waterbury Teachers Associations legislative committee attended today's hearing on the State Aid Bill of the Con- necticut Department of Education whereby Waterbury would eventual ly receive a total grant of $ll9,74O' for educational purposes.
 Attending today's meeting at the State Capitol were the Misses Helen Hogan, president of the local asso- ciation, Anna E. M. Dwyer, Mary Mccarthy, Fennessy Canty ana Charles E. Woodlock. Miss Canty also will act as co-chairman of the legislative committee of the State Teachers Association.
 The grant is to be distributed here by payments of one-foutrh in 1945- 46, one-half the total in 1946-N and three -fourthS in 1947-48, With the total amount to be paid each year.
 AS reported here previously, Miss Canty outlined the qualifications necessary for each municipality to receive benefits under terms of the bill citing Waterbury as one of four teen cities and towns which will re- ceive 8 $10 minimum aid for each pupil. As of the school years 1943-44 the city had 11,974 resident pupils. The city now exceeds, in its expen- ditures, more than the $l00 per pu- pill in average daily membership thereby becoming eligible for the $l0 minimum grant.
 A similar committee from Water bury will attend next weeks hearing on the state bill calling for equal ization of pay for women teachers. ocal women teachers long have sought this adjustment but have met with refusal on the part of the administration. It Is believed that some local compromise will be worked out at the suggestion of the teachers unless the state bill IS passed. Passage of the state bill calls for adjustment payment whe- ther all at once or over period of the next couple of years until the level is established.
