Police Unit
DiSbondinQ

Although the disbandment of the
Waterbury Auxiliary Police Unit
will not be a welcome step, the
move probably will be made today
when the Board of Police Commits
sioners meets in City Hall at 4 p.
m, 1t was learned.
The Auxiliary Police Unit. a part
of the Office of Civilian Defense,
has been in operation during the
war and has assisted the local
Police Department in many in
stances.
At a meeting of the Police Board
last month it was decided to keep
the Unit in operation until this
month, the legal date when it
should disband. 1t was revealed that
although the matter win be dis
cussed today with the intention OF
finding some way in which the or
ganization can be kept together,
the Board will find itself without
legal powers TO halt the disband-
ment.

It's prompt service has been appre-
ciated by other city departments.
Park Department

It's prompt service has been appre'
ciated by other city departments.
Park Department
This department has carried on
Its maintenance program as best II
could during the war The end Of
the war showed an improvement
and note should be had Of the re-
newal work done at Hamilton ParS
last year, An expanded recreation
program has been carried on by this
department and increased use has
been given to city parks and recrea-
tional facilities under Its leadership
This report also shows sound, well
considered plans for the future.
Police Department
This department has submitted q
much improved annual report with
detail which permits q factual APP
praisal OF Its activities. Particular
note should be had Of the accident
prevention activity and the attempt
to deal with trafflc cases, Also note
worthy are the activities Of the First
Aid Squad. Personnel standards
have been improved and a training
program should have q definitely
constructive effect upon the depart
ment, The availability of younger
men plus the higher standard OF
selection has already resulted In a
much improved department,
Department Of Purchases
The work OF this department
should receive particular notice
since 1t was carried on when war
time scarcities made purchasing
particularly difficult. In spite OF this,
three ten-ton trucks for blowing OF
snow and hauling of sand and
gravel were obtained as we'll as ten
cars for the Police Department.
Generally, the Job Of insuring value
for the money spent by the city was
well carried out,
Bureau Of Sewers. Streets
and Water
The Bureau of Sewers, Streets and
Water carried on its work under
difficulties caused by shortages Of
materials and labor. Progressive
steps were the introduction Of stone
surfacing on certain streets, the in
stalling Of a steel floor on the WASH
ington Street Bridge, the extension
Of the Street Sign Program, the
construction Of a new FIRE proof City
Yard Building and the acquisition
of important new trucking equip
ment. 1t is interesting to note that
the snow removal expenditure in
creased fifty percent over the 1914
budget.
Study should be made Of the table
Of costs showing the tremendous in
creases in the costs of materials that
have taken place in the last five
years.
Town Clerk
Progress has been made in this
department through the installation
of Rectigraph-Duplex photo
machine. This permits the photo
graphing of legal documents and
does away with the old hand method
OF transcription. The result is to
save over ten weeks in the time
taken to record such documents.
Welfare Department
This department has continued to
function efficiently and has given
service to Draft Boards and also to
returning veterans as part of its
regular routine.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-03-06
