$821,O88 In Resources
 

Resources of S82l ,088 are antici- pated by the Employees Retirement Fund of the City of Waterbury, &C., cording to the budget recently ad- opted by the Board of Finance and ordered printed for submission to a public hearing by the Board of AL dermen. These resources include an anticipated cash balance of $275 900 on January 1. l947.
 Also anticipated during 1947 are the following contributions: general govern ment employees. $45 900; school teaching employees, $43 1900; Fire Department personnel, $25 500: and Police Department personnel, $26, 200. From the General Fund the city will make transfer of $404. .488, which figure was recently deter mined by Russell O. Hooker, Fellow of the Actuarial Society of America. The amount is made up of $208 042, representing 5.69 per cent of the payroll of members of the system, and $l96.446 representing l-2 per cent of the city's accrued liability.
 Appropriations from the Fund during l947 were estimated as fol- lows: payment of pensions to re- tired general government employees, $62, ,790.33; pensions to retired school teachers, $48,000; pensions to retired firemen, $lll,8ll.79; pensions to retired policemen. $S3,032.70: re- serve for employees contributions, $283 200; unappropriated fund ball. ance, $232,253,18.
 It is believed that the Waterbury Retirement Board will take steps in l947 to invest reserves within the fund, as under provisions of the l945 Pension Act it has authority to do so or to place the responsibility for administration of such reserves in the hands of corporate trustee. At recent meeting of the Board initiation of such a program of in- vestment of funds was discussed.

 Hopkins asked if CollisSon had bought records of correspondence between the coal administration and the Wage Stabilization Board re- garding previous changes in the UNIV. wage contract with the Government.
 Correspondence Given Out
 Hopkins apparently was trying to show that the Government itself had not submitted contract changes to the WISE and that the union should no be expected to do so. The machinery established in the Smith, -Connaily Anti-Strike Law for Government-seized properties allows for the Government-operat- ing agency or the union or both to ask the WISE to order changes in wages or working conditions.
 Hopkins asked if the Government had corresponded with the board in connection with a contract provi- sion realing with fines and penal ties. Collisson said it had not.
 Collisson handed to Hopkins cor- respondence between the coal ad- ministration and the board relating to Lewis Oct. 2l letter asking for negotiations for a new contract.
 While Hopkins and ColliSson studied the documents, Lewis sat with his arms crossed, looking glunly out into the courtroom.
 After further questions about pre- strike conferences between union and Government representative, Hopkins turned Collisson back to Sonnett for further direct examina- tion.

Washington Awaits Russian Reply On Iran

WASHINGTON, Mar. 8, P)- Official Washington awaited Rus sia's reply to this country's de- mand that Soviet troops leave Iran immediately. They believe the reply may go far toward de- termining whether American and Russian relations may improve or continue worse.
 There is no indication when it will arrive from Moscow. Nikolai Novikov, charge d'affaires at the Russian Embassy made his first diplomatic call in months on Secretary Byrnes yesterday. Later Byrnes said however, he didn't discuss either of the two U. S. notes sent to Moscow Tuesday declaring United States cannot remain indifferent" to Russia's decision to keep troops in Iran.
 The note was released last night and said the Soviet action was contrary to the Roosevelt-Stalin- Churchill declaration at Tehran of December first, 1943, in which the three governments pledged to maintain the independence, sov- ereignty and territorial integrity of Iran"
