Bremen Here Operating on .S4-Hr. Week
Schedule Called
 Obsolete; Bristol Adopts New Plan
nv THE OUT EASTER

Bristol can do it, so can New Britain, but Waterbury keeps along on the old fashioned line
 We refer to the hours Of duty of the Waterbury Bremen Ever since the installation of the two platoons, July 1, 1919, Waterbury Bremen have been compelled to be on duty 24 hours, or from Sum day moynlng at 8 o'clock until Monday morning at the same hour. The late Chief Heltman established that custom, because it was an emergency that had to do with the formation Of the new routine of affairs, Boards have come and boards have gone, but not one of the lot, or any single commissioner, has ever interested himself in the 84 hours of employ ment by the rank and file of the department You hear Q lot of blow" from the present set of commissioners, every time they meet, warnings to new members to refrain from intoXlcantS, some what of q reflection, we think, to the membership of past years, and yet the fact is that few of the older men of the force ever lndul- ged while in the uniform of the department, But even Fireman has some rights, at least out Of uniform,
 Just listen to thls by way of Bristol,
 At present firemen are compelled to work 24 consecutive hours one day q week to get c full dey off, Under the new plan which stag gers the shifts at each firehouse, fIremen during a 10 days period will be on duty for four l0-hour days and four i4-hour nights and will be off for one 4s hour ab- sence and one 24 hour absence, The plan reduces the work week from 84 hours to an average of g7,2 hours.
 And here Is the action Of the New Britain commissioners to wit:
 Under the new working schedule the present long day on duty will Dc abolished and each fireman will be off duty one day in every five, Patterned after the best plans in cities of Massachusetts and New York State, the new schedule will work on c 10 day cycle, one day during that cycle providing for 24 hours off duty and two for 46 hours off, the extra 24 hours in the latter being due to a change in shifts.
 And yet, not 0 peep from the Fire Board of Waterbury, e sort of a Rip Van Wrinkle organization, as we look ct 1t.

general peace conference while ma
jor issues remained unsolved and
prospects for reaching agreement
remained dim.
Prepared to Talk All Summer.
Persons close to Mr.. Byrnes said
he was prepared to stay here all
summer, If necessary, to achieve
essential accord with Russia on the
knotty questions of Trieste, the
Italian n-Yugoslav frontier, Italian
reparations, freedom of navigation
on the Danube, and equal CONNER
cial opportunity in Eastern Europe
The ministers reviewed the out
standing issues blocking final drafts
OF the italian and Romanian trea-
ties yesterday without reaching any
further agreement. The question of
Trieste was shelved again at the re-
quest of French Foreign Minister
Georges Bidault.
After the lengthy review was COM
pleted, with no action other than to
shelve the deadlocked issues again,
Mr.. Byrnes suggested discussion of
assembling 21-nation peace con-
ference. Mr.. Molotov at first ap-
proved, on condition that the Big
Four first complete discussion of the
remaining items of disagreement.
Byrnes Remains Firm.
Mr.. Byrnes objected, saying there
were two many of these items. Mr..
Molotov then suggested discussing
the conference question tomorrow,
but Mr.. Byrnes said he was serving
notice that he would insist on bring
ing up the question at today's ses-
sion, following discussion of the
projected treaty with Finland and
the Danube question.
The only agreements reached yes
terday were to designate the am
bassadors of the Big Four as COM
to supervise compliance
with treaty terms for year after
they become effective and to pro-
vide that Romanian assets in Allied
nations could be used to satisfy

wrath over OPA, and put business
men in price-control jobs which had
been held by college professors.
Charts Used In Testimony.
A retired advertising man, Mr..
Bowles introduced graphic charts in
testifying before congressional COM
mittees, and in turn was called by
one legislator "the best salesman in
the United States"
But when the war ended and the
clamor went up from some quarters
for elimination Of price controls,
Mr.. Bowles began a slam-bang CAM
paign to keep the lid on.
Last February he became stabili-
Zation director, moving over from
OPA after a knock-down, drag-out
battle over steel prices, which he
lost.
He took over administration of a
liberalized wage-price policy which
soon led to fiurries of cost-of Living
price increases, and found himself
in the embarrassing position of hays
ing to approve them.
Weeks ago, anticipating that Con-
gress would trim OPA's authority
drastically, Mr.. Bowles began burn
ing his bridges behind him. He
lashed out at the bill, said no honest
man could administer it, and put
himself on record as unalterably OPP
posed to any compromise.
| The only choice he left himself
was when to resign. He decided
that at home last Thursday night.

New York BuiIdinq
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, June 29.-At least 26
persons were reported injured early
today when an interstate bus went
out of control and crashed into a
downtown building following a COL
lision with taxicab.
twenty-five of those hurt were
passengers in the bus. None, in
cluding the taxi driver, was believed
seriously injured.
Police quoted the bus driver,
Charles Hippel, Tacony, Pa, as say
ing the taxi was going in the wrong
direction down a one-way street.
He told officers he sought to avoid
crash by swerving his vehicle, in
bound from Washington, but that
the collision threw him out of his
seat, and the bus went out of con-
troll.
Most of those injured suffered
only cuts and bruises. Police said
they included:
Miss Isabelle Jackson, 38, of 1929

building materials could be wasted,
Mr.. Wyatt said, if all other prod

flee.
I'm expressing my deep regret at
your leaving the Government, I
know that I am merely adding my
voice to one much greater-the voice
of the American people. The people
of this country know how conscien-
tiously and faithfully you have
worked to protect their interests both
during the war and during the
transition from war to peace.
They know that under your lead
ership, the Office of Price Adminis-
tration and the Office of Economic
Sterilization have been a powerful
bulWark against the forces in ou1
economy which might long since
have destroyed the security and the
hopes of millions of workers and
their families. They know your per-

strated in speaking out vigorously

ministration.
In accepting your resignation
want to assure you, and at the same
time every American, that this ad-
ministration will never give up the
fight. We shall continue the battle
against initiation with every weapon
at our disposal, and shall not rest
until this country has reached per-
manent high levels of production
prosperity and employment.
THE hope that you may remain
in public life as a champion of the
principles of this administration, and
the assurance that I may continue
to call upon you from time to time
for counsel, will be some consolation
for the loss of so tireless and effec.
