The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-01-02

Lake Okeehobee, in central Flor ida, is the largest lake in the state and one of the largest that lies wholly within the United States.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-01-02

An exhaustive survey has shown that people are demanding streets, sewers sidewalks, storm water drainage and lighting. Our schools must be kept up. The state insists that we establish a system of sewage disposal.
 Postwar automobile trafflc cries our for super highways that will ease the terrific load on our old- fashioned streets, Health facilities must be expanded. Waterbury must be put on the main line of modern transportation by the eS- tablishment of an adequate air. port.
 All these things are necessary, and the City Plan commission, through it's engineer and the bud get director, has worked out plan already distributed to your broad whereby the financing can be done within the limits of the present budget.
 And so the note I should like to strike today is one of confidence and optimism. Our city govern ment is functioning as efficiently as at any time within the past 9 years. It is genuinely inter ested in the welfare of the people of the city as individuals. Our hous is in order and we have money in the bank. The future is in our hands.
 Let us determine to maintain and implement the administrative and financial progress that has been made.
 Let us continually re-eXamine our practices and procedures to improve them in every way pos- Sible.
 Let us resolve in the vital days ahead to work together in har- mony for the welfare and devel- opment of the people and the city we all love.

provides the balance. In this way, permanent arrangement is estab- lished which gives security both to the beneficiary and the taxpayer.
 Our administration was not res- ponsible for the hodgepodge of provisions which had grown up over the years nor was it respon- sible for the creation of the com mission which recommended the present legislation. We did feel compelled, however, to support some form of amendment.
 This change has not been we'll received on all sides and 1t will involve an immediate cost of some $200, 900 more than has ever been appropriated in the past. It does mean, however, that this common problem has been placed under mature consideration and the control and I am confident that paSsa'e of time will cause people to conclude that the position we took was progressive and con- Structive.
 In this major particular We have placed ourselves ahead of most cities in recognizing and dealing with e grave municipal problem.
 Another basic change in our government also came out of the i94S General Assembly. This was the modernization of the Asses sor'S office and the accompanying revaluation. You will recall that an attack on the method of asses ment was made, at that time, by representative of the Republican party. The recommended legisla- tive solution, however, was objec- tionable in that it placed the man. agement of the ofilce on a partisan basis. Because of this characteris- tic of the legislation, it was vetoed by Gov. Baldwin. In his veto mess age, however, he recommended that the procedure of the office be investigated. Because of this recommendation, I requested the state tax commissioner to make a survey. He did make Q survey which pointed out the necessity of a complete revaiuation.
 As a result of these recom- mendations of the governor and the tax commissioner, a non-par- tisan committee was set up by me. This committee included repre- sentativeS of your honorable board

Mayor Urges.  ByAII
lnouguval Address
 ExpFssses Hope
 For Grave Problems

! The following ls Che fun text of Mayer John 8. Monagan's in- augurAl address as delivered at yesterdays ceremoniess
 aWhen I last addressed your honorable board we had just about reached the turning point in the war. Tarawa and Salerno were fresh In our minds and victory was Q long way off.
 Today the bloody battles of 1924 and 1915 are behind us. We have won the war and we have beaten back the enemies who sought to enslave us.
 We can be proud of the contri- button that Waterbury men and women In the armed services made in gaining this victory and I am happy to express our debt to them.
 To those who gave their lives, our gratitude must be eternal and the most fitting return for their sacrifices would be a determination by us that the peace which they fought to make real will not be Q lnockery and a delusion.
 We may remember with pride the share which Waterbury had in the productive war which provided overwhelming support for the men at the front. Waterbury industry, labor and management both did it's part nobly in supplying the ma terials of combat and making vic- tory more secure.
 Tn my acceptance speech two years ago, I spoke of many ways in which our municipal government could be improved. I shall not go into these in detail. It is sufficient to say that Q reference to this speech will show that most of the suggestions have been carried into reality.
 There are two E.ajor reforms which have been realized within this period and I should like to discuss them briefly. They are the setting up of the new pension sys- tenn and the completion of the re- valuation of city property.
 
 The pension change had its be- ginnings in the 194S Legislature when a Republican sponsored commission was created to investi- gate the situation. This commits sion held many hearings and fin- ished by submitting a bill radically revising the pension set-up.
 I did not agree with the pro- posed legislation and I requested certain changes. The first restored pre-exiSting benefits to city em- ployes. The second reduced the contribution which the city was required to make.
 I want to emphasize the matter of this contribution. An actuarial study has indicated that our pay ments of pension benefits will level off in the neighborhood of S55O 900 per year. In five years benefits will amount to $336.OOO and in ten years &443. 900. This is true in spite of the fact that only five years age the total paid out was s0O, 900.
 The main recommendation of the Pension Commission that re- form was necessary was obviously sound. The thing to do was to. att tack the problem before it got out of hand. As a result, the l946 budget contains an appropriation of $555. .322 to set up Q retirement fund. Of this amount, the employ es contribute $14l 900, and the city

Mr.. Lewis returned with his 600.-
600 miners to the AFL last winter
He had broken away in 1885, wher
he started the CLIO, was suspended
in 1886, then left the CIO in 1941
Abolition of OPA, the Wage
Sterilization Board and any other
Government strings on earnings
were Mr.. Lewis prime objectives
in advance Of the convention.
There is the question of whether
to break up the present national
wage agreement and come to terms
with all but the Southern opera
tors-giving up the country wide
contract achieved last year after
decades Of struggle.
Mr.. Lewis aides said he was not
likely to recommend abandonment
of the national contract. Vice
President John OLeary and Sec
retary-treasurer Thomas Kennedy
were opposed to a piece meal set
tlement.
The bituminous coal mines still
are under Government operation
and will continue that way until

operators come to terms. The Gov.
