TALKED ABOUT IN WESTERLY
Four Members of Council Not Candidates for Reelection -Salemeno Case on Triai-Cocking Main, in Which Men from Westerly Norwich, New London and New Haven Watch Savage Fights from 10 30 P. Till

sFss the first time in many years, a terly town council have declined to be candidates for reelection. the custom being for the last decade. nearly. to elect not more than one new member at any election, the others being re- elected. Therefore there will be four new candidates elected to succeed AL bert H. Langworthy. c. Clarence Max son, William Cuiley and Wayland A. Saunders, who have announced that they are not candidates for renomiEa- ton. Messrs. Langworthy, Maxson and SAundess composed the highway committee. and gave freely of their time to see to it that the best possible results came from the expenditure on highwaHs and. considering the amount appropriated for general work, their service has been satisfying to the pub- lie.
 The board of trade however, con-, ceived the idea that the work should be taken over by 8 commission and away from the town council and are planning for 8 board of public works, along the lines suggested by gov efnment expert from the agricultural department. who visited Westerly last winter. It is known that the ma jority of the members of the coun- cil are opposed to the plan. although the invitation for the expert came from the town council at the insti- gation of the board of trade. Messrs. Langworthy, Araxson and Saunders give no public cause for their retire ment Mir. Culley was a former chair man of the police committee, but since the council became committee of the whole on police affairs, he has been chairman of the committee on street lights. These four aldermen have served the town well and they would probably have been reelected.
 The present eouncilmene who have sfgnified willingness to accept renom- ination are Maurice W. Flynn, Charles B. Thomas and Francis G. Hazwell and there is no doubt of their reelec- ton. MT, Flynn will be the senior member of the council and, if prece- dent is observed. will be chosen pres ident of the council. He has had am- pie experience in town affairs.
 As usual, the republican town com mittee will present a slate to the par ty caucus, with prospects that the rec concentrations of the committee will that among the probable candidates are Frederick c. Buffum, Clifford w. Campbell, George Benjamin Utter, Thomas Perry. Samuel Nardone, Frank F. Dodge Daniel Iarlkin, La Clede woodmansee, Thomas Hope. Frederick Wilcox and Frank w. Coy.
