 WOULD PUSH WORK.
 eff elected to the office of first se- Iectman of Stratford one of my first acts would be to take steps to compel the contractors on the. North Main street paving job to begin operations at once,'' said Thomas McQuillan of Barnum avenue, one of the men run ming for the office of first seIectman in the coming primary election.
 ''This farce has been allowed to go long enough he said, land although at first I was in favor of having Broad street paved in preference to North Main street, think, as long as the money was voted by the towns people for North Main street, that work should be started there. The contract was awarded long ago and 1t
 
 was done to push the work along be- fore frost set sin.'
 MT. McQuillan seems to be the best man by far that could be picked for the job of first se1ectnan in Stratford. Born and bred here he is familiar with the town as only a native son can be. No one will question his in tegrity or ability to fill this responsiz ble position with credit to himself and the town.
 MT. McQuilIan was born in Strat- ford and has lived here all his life growing up with the men who are rated as the finest of the towns sons. He has held office in Stratford and is even now one of the assessors of the town. He has devoted himself con scientiousIy to his duty and it can be truthfuIIy said that there is not a single blot upon his record in public or private life in Sratford.
 He holds a responsible position with the Union Metallic Cartridge company of Bridgeport but does not intend to let this interfere with his duties as first selectman- t'I'm not afraid to lose a. little money said MT. Mo that the voters of Stratford want me for first selectman.'' If elected to this office, and the town will be the loser if he is not elected MT. McQu11an will open an office in the Center so that he will be in a position to carry on the affairs of his office in an up-to- date and thoroughly businesslike man ner, There seems to be little doubt but that MT. McQui11an in the coming primaries will have the support Of every man in the town who is looking out for the real good of, the town and is willing to place this apoVe mere party prejudice.
