Charges Traded In Assembly Race Two of the three candidates for the assembly seat in the 99th District have traded charges, as Democrat Phillip Magnarella and Liberal Satiro Kazolias battle for the seat now held by Republican Emeel Betros.

Kazolias Tuesday rapped Magnarella's billboard a m- paign as "visual pollution," and questioned the reason why the word "Democratic" does not appear on those billboards. Magnarella answered by saying the intent was to "call attention to the individual who is running."

The bond would have amounted to $17,400.

But residents of that development presented a 67-signature petition against the bond and another from. 57 families stating that "the majority of the people feel the bond is going to cost us a lot of money and we'd rather pay it in the tax bill." The board passed a resolution, unanimously, to place the charge for the meters directly on the tax bill. This will cost the homeowner $108 on the assessment and will appear on the 1973 billing. It was noted that 160 meters at $65 each will be purchased with $6,210 for installation. A public hearing on proposed construction of lateral water mains from the intersection of Spring Street and Woodlawn Avenue was adjourned since the one bid received for the job did not meet the specifications.

The cost is not to exceed 500. The 1973 tentative budget will be presented to the Town Board Oct. 3, the next regularly scheduled council meeting. On Oct. 18 a public hearing on the tentative budget will take place, and if approved will become the town's preliminary budget.

A public hearing on final budget will be held Oct. 25 and the budget will then be adopted. 2 Men Accused In Theft Of Calf HOPEWELL JUNCTION Two men charged with petit larceny are being held in lieu of $150 bail pending a further court appearance on Thursday before LaGrange Town Justice Lawrence Fo garty.

Union Leader Charges Nixon Hurts Labor LOS ANGELES (AP) The leader of one of the nation's largest labor unions says President Nixon has established "the most probig-business and antilabor administrations since the unlamented days of the late Herbert Hoover." Floyd Smith, president of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, told some 2,000 delegates to the union's convention that Nixon had hurt the working man and helped "financial fat cats." Smith is a leader among laborites for George McGovern, and spokesmen said they expect the convention will endorse the Democratic presidential nominee, today's featured guest speaker. Nixon could have handled in flation, Smith said, by enforcing antitrust laws, controlling consumer credit or encouraging price competition in the oil industry. "But, since his campaign had been financed by the bankers, big business and the oil lobby, he did none of those things.

Since someone had to pay the price of cooling the economy, he decided it would be the working people and the financial fat cats," Smith stated. Earlier, Republican Gov. Ronald major Nixon supporter, drew applause when he said "jobs are the best cure for poverty, not welfare." a GRAND 100 BONUS EXTRA UNION STAMPS COUPON OR MORE OF PURCHASE OF $2.00 IN-STORE: BAKED GOODS good thru Sept.

Kustas' speech set the tone for the luncheon program which was moderated by George Key, assistant superintendent of schools. Morale appeared to be good, although the president of the Poughkeepsie Public School Teachers Association, C. Frederick Ott sounded the one sour note. He called for the more than 400 gathered to make a new year's resolution "to resist the temptation to stray from facts and wander into personal invective." Addressing himself directly to the teachers, he said that at the elementary level they were working under a real hardship.

Dialogue was the focus of board member William Pappas' speech. He stressed that there must be dialogue with everyone in the community and said only after discussing problems could you "work toward the Ott was not as optimistic in his remarks, "There is a little bit of unhappiness today, because many of our colleagues in neighboring schools and throughout the state are in a crisis situation, because boards of education have attempted to legislate contracts," Ott said. He reported on the situations at several Rockland County schools as well as schools in Beacon, New Paltz, Ellenville and Newburgh. He said the Wappingers teachers had reached a settlement Tuesday morning at 6 o'clock.

"Because teachers are scared and because they are engaged in roles in which they are not familiar," Ott asked Pouzhkeepsie teachers to place. telephone calls to teachers they knew in the various districts he mentioned as being in a "crisis situation" Ott also asked teachers to call their friends in the Way pinger district to thank them Dr. Peter J. Dugan, the new superintendent of schools stressed involvement, mutual responsibility, cooperation and understanding: He also outlined his goals for education in Poughkeepsie.
