 The representatives said they felt that the proposed increased rate would onset any loss to the clty which would result should the rec valuated assessments be suspended.
 Ruling Informal
 MT. Healey's informal ruling was likened today by some, as being cor- slstent with Q similar ruling of his handed down to Patrick 2. Shea at the time the latter was serving as acting mayor. The ruling at that time applied to a request that the assessment be suspended for the 1924 Grand List with the latter promised upon the io1e budget and tax rate.
 Mayor Monagan today refused to discuss the meeting as did Mir. Benedict, the publicity director of the Council. The Mayor said he was pleased that the Council rep- resentatlves had met with him and discussed the matter in an orderly fashion. He told the Council he would give full consideration to their appeal.
 The delegates of the is Commun- fly clubs comprising the Council will meet tomorrow night at 6 D. m. at the Bunker Hill Congregational Church. Reports will be made by way of bringing the Council up to date on proceedings since the last meeting and @ discussion will be held relative to new developments concerning the assessment issue, MT. Benedict said today.
 Appeal for Session
 Yesterday Edward N. Ryan and Atty. Maurice Gruslkay represent- ing the Citizens Committee ap- peared before the Legislative Com mittee determining the need for a special session.
 They urged that a special session be called during which time an Act would be passed giving the Waterbury Board of Tax Review an extension on its time for holding hearings.
 MT. Ryan declared the tax situa- tion here to be of an emergency" nature and therefore the Board should have more than the pre- scribed 20 days for hearings.
 Under ordinary conditions" he said, "the 20 days would be Suf- flcient, but with the possibility of six or seven thousand appeals 1t will be impossible for the Board to act upon these appeals properly"
 Explains Wait
 Mir. Ryan also stated today that he regretted if the Council of Com munity Clubs had felt he went to Hartford with the intent of repre- senting them in presenting the ap- peal. 'Mr. Gruskay and myself went solely as representatives of the Citizens Committee" he empha- sized.
 Members of the Legislative Com mittee who met were: Sen. Ray mond Brock, Sen. Louis R. White head and Sen. Nicholas J. Spell 1 man, chairman.
 Floyd H. Rasmussen, member of the COP State Central Committee meeting and head of the Sunrise Community Club headed a nine person delegation to the same hear ing yesterday.
 Accompanying Mir. Rasmussen were: Mrs. James Duncan, Mrs. Raymond Booth. Mrs. John Carter, Mrs. Allan Cahoon, Mrs. Laura Hungerford, Philip Schneider, John Carter, George Ottinger and Wil- bur Brennan.
 Aldro Jenks, chief assessor, today | stated he and his stan members | were still processing appeals and checking appeals. No definite tabu- | lation as to the number of appeals | filed has yet been made. he said | The possibility of approximately S. 900 was seen.

Christianity And Peace

Emphasizing the Importance OF Chris
tian teaching in building permanent
foundations for peace, Protestant churches
and other religious agencies of rural and
urban areas of the United States and Can
ada will join forces in the 10th annual
observance of Religious Education Week,
Sept. 29-Oct. 6.
Using the theme, "God's Word for To-
day." 40 Protestant denominations and 173
state, city and provincial councils of
churches and religious education will CO.
operate for church and community observ-
ances, he stated.
making secure the peace we have won
is the overwhelming concern which con-
fronts our western world today" DR.. Ross
declared in announcing the observance.
"Our apprehension at the precariousness
of our diplomatic relationships, our un-
easiness over domestic economic conflicts,
and our concern about racial tensions are
all part of this insistent problem"
"While the Christian faith does not pre-
tend to have specific answers to involved
social problems, it does declare that men
must have respect for each other. 1t in
sists that we approach these intricate prob
lens as Christian brothers. Only so will
the solutions to our problems of peace be
found" Dr. Ross averred.
In most towns and cities Rally or Pro-
motion Day will open Religious Education
week, stressing an increase Of enrolment
and attendance. Community interest will
be developed through weekday programs,
including launching of leadership educa-
ton schools on Monday, family nights on
Tuesday, interchurch fellowship meetings
Thursday, and denominational or inter
church youth rallies on Friday. The weeks
observance will climax on World Com
munion Sunday with emphasis on world
wide Christian unity.
We agree with DR.. Ross In his sugges-
tions as to peace We believe that we
must have peace with individuals before
nation and worldwide peace can be perma-
nent.

Too Many Wrecks

This section, like many others is having
too many automobile wrecks. There are
several causes of these, condition of roads,
automobiles and the condition of drivers
as well. Some wrecks can be avoided
and every effort should be made to de-
crease them. - Z: .::e..s ! +'aee

the mouth of bottle emerges the evil
genii that bring about many car acci-
dents that could readily be avoided
"It is well-known fact, which safety
men choose to ignore, that over-indulgence
in intoxicating liquors on the part of driv-

per cent of all automobile accidents. If
authorities had enough nerve to enforce
the existing liquor laws regarding drivers,
motoring would be more pleasant.

The value of his conclusion may
be measured in the light of recent report
from one of the larger insurance COM
panies showing that for the first six months
of this year the death toll was "a per cent
higher than last among the company's in
dustrial policy holders.
The rise was particularly large at ages
20 to "a. The use of dilapidated cars by
young people, the lack of recent driving
experience and the greater desire for mo-
toring following the lifting of driving re-
strictions were called contributing factors.
