Funds Available For
Local Traffic Survey
"
Weeks of Suspense End With Announcement That
Official Aproval Had Arrived-Resume Work Shortly
Out of the mist of uncertainty which has enveloped
the local traffic survey project, now in its fourth week of
inactivity, an annwincement in regard to its approval was
made this morning at the offices of Congressman J. Joseph
Smith. Word has been received at the office that the
bureau of the budget has approved of the project, which
h?d been sent to them some three weeks ago, and that the
amount allocated exceeds the most hopeful expectations.

High school and one of the most
popular members of the younger
element here, has entered the
New York School of Applied Arts.
NEW LIQUOR FIRM
OFFERS BARGAINS
Since the formal opening of the
Colony Liquor Store in the Water
bury Hotel Building which offers a
complete line of famous liquors and
wines at great savings, the manage
ment has been kept o nthe go con
tinually.
George Johnson is manager of the
new west end emporium and Harry
Johnson is assistant manager. Both
man have had considerable exper
ienoa in this line of business and
will welcome old and new friends at
their ideally located establishment.
The Colony Liquor Store is located
out of the high rent district which
insures customers of purchasing the
finmt and most popular liquors and
winas at the lowest possible prices.
The proprietors absolutely refuse to
be undersold.
One advantage this store has over
a majority of others is the spacious
parking space near their place of
business. They offer free delivery
service and hope to make the store
the mecca of discriminating shop
pers who are Interested in buying
quality merchandise at a savings.
They feature a complete line of
Schenley’s Products, including May
flower, Golden Wedding, Old Qua
ker. Old Schenley, Cream of Ken
tucky, American Cream, red label,

others.
Other brands they carry are Gib

adlen Club, Mt. Vernon, Hiram Wal
ker’s Bonded Whiskey, Corby’s Can
me project nas Been approvea
for an amount involving $6,834 and
is now in the district office in New
Haven. This means'Xthat work on
the project should get under way
here in Waterbury within the next
few days. It was originally sup
posed that the project would be
approved for an amount in the
neighborhood of $3,000. Then, as
days passed and no word was heard
from Washington and the men .be
gan to request for transfers to
WPA construction Jobs, it was gen
erally believed that the local traf
ric survey project was closed for
good. Today’s announcement, how
ever, clearly indicates that work
will begin again.
20 Employed
There are twenty persons em
ployed here on the local project and
to date it is believed that about
half of the number had requested
for transfers, believing that the
survey project was finished. No
definite Information has been is
sued in connection with the men
who have requested transfers, and
in regard to those who have already
been transferred, but it is expected
that they willNbe transferred back
to their Jobs on the traffic survey.
Cheering News
The news is the best that has been
received in some months by the
members of the local staff, who have
been out of work for the past three
weeks. Previous to this lay-off,
they were out of work as a result of
some tieup in regard to appropria
tion of funds for a period of six
weeks. That was some time during
the summer. In the early spring
they were out of work for about
three weeks as a result of another
tie-up. Now, with the sum of
$6,824 appropriated for the project,
it seems that they will be able to
work until the entire survey work
is completed.
