Council Chairman Replies to Mayor
William O. Taylor Declares Community Clubs Have No Desire to Engage in Sander Contest;

William o. Taylor, chairman oi the Council of Community clubs today sustained the recent contro- versy between himself and Mayor John s. Monagan with the issuance of a statement in reply to the Mayors attack of yesterday in which Mir. Taylor was criticized as intoxicated with the heady wine of publicity" ,......
 Tn a statement issued to the press MT. Taylor states we do not care to engage with the Mayor in a sIandering contest.,,, and ..h have only the interest of the community at heart |.
 Yesterday the Mayor replied to an earlier attack by the Council on the city administration and charg :, ed their motives as suspicious ana seeking of notorety.'
 Today's statements issued by MT Taylor is as follows:
 The Council of Community

 do not care to engage with the
 Mayor In a slandering contest
 We as representatives of the cross
 section of Waterbury's inarticu-
 late citizens, have only the inter-
 est of the community at heart
 Consequently. it is unfortunate
 that the Mayor allowed his anger
 10 color his attack. The Mayor
 can rest assured that our only
 interest lies in the issues now
 confronting the taxpayers. me
 Mayor can also rest assured that
 our primary object is not to uh-
 seat any political party. We re-
 iterate our slogan, Better govern
 ment for the people by the peo-'
 ple." It might be further orought
 out at this point that anything stated here is not vague in con-
 structIon but is intended to strlEe
 at the heart Of the controversy
 as we are not scnooled sufficiently
 in the finer art of innuendo ana
 phrases having more than one
 significance. We must oi econ
 onlic necessity earn our bread ana
 butter at our regular work ana
 have neither time nor inclination
 to spar worldly irf political
 fashion. .,. r,.,,,-
