FITCH SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1943 PWD 'Hangs On' Despite Shortage Of Vital 3Iaterial War has rr.ade a maintenance crew out of the public works department ti the opinion of Commissioner Joeeph M. Peirce. And the longer the war lasts, raturally the more difficult the problem of maintenance will be as materials and equipment fee! the pinch of deterioration. sSnOPORGAiES FINOS FREEDOM! Feels 20 Years Younger, He Savs! Lastly, when the war la won there will be a tremendous demand for new construction in public works. But when this day does come, Mr.

Pierce would rather have "20 men" than an entire WPA project. "Our job now is simple maintenance." said Mr. Peirce this mom- ing. "As an example, we have in Fitchburg 150 miles of roads, 50 per cent of them tarred, all representing a quarter of a million dollar investment. 'We can't build new roads or make major improvements.

We must keep them up with what we have on har.d. So we haven't lost the use of any of Our equipmentv-except for a link shovel which waiyout of action a week--and as a resuu.we've i able to keep pace job." As to" the manpower problem, one which has been almost insoluble for most industries, the public works department has been fortunate. 'About 150 men is our normal staff," explained Mr. Peirce, "and present we have 1W working. Eicht left us fn the two In this connection, Mr.

Peirce ob- equipment has stood the strain of long and continuous use and to the ability of the department to procure tar, a factor which has made it possible to keep the city's streets and roads in fair condition.
