PARTIES PREPARE
 TO PICK NOMINEES
Republicans Expect to Name
 Stevens for Assembly
DEMOCRATS UNDECIDED
Poor Turnout for Committee Making Voters-Man Injured in Auto Crash on Pike Taken to New Britain Police Station-Items.

Tonight marks the date when the two parties will meet at their re- spective caucuses and select their nominees for representativ as well as five justices of the peace. The re- publicans will hold their gathering in the auditorium of the town hall vhil eth edemocrats hay eselected Legion hall in Kensington for their caucus Both assemblies are called for s o'clock and a large attendance is anticipated at each,
 Claude w. Stevens is the outstand- ing parsonage at the republican bal loting, having tossed his hat in the representative ring at the beginning Of the electioneering. No other Can- didates have come forward as yet and it Is generally thought that to- nights voting will be all for Stevens as he is backed up thoroughly by his party Having served two terms in the house of representatives, he has a good knowledg eof the inner work ings of the chamber and is well known at the law market.
 In the democratic ranks, no def1- nite candidates have announced their intentions of making a bid for the place It has been rumored that Philip Pagan is a possible choice, be- ing on co fthe foremost members ot the local party. He is well known and generally liked througout the community and stands very good chance of receiving the post. Johann Murray has also been named as a possible candidate, she is also well known and liked. Mrs, F. J. Lard ner is another possibility, being named by several prominent demo- crats as the logical contender for the position. Mrs. Lardner is pro- minent member of the Kensington League of Women Voters which has recently been making pastime ot upsetting predictions as to ma1ori- ties. It is thought that her nomlna- ton would swing large vote from the league and would go a long way towards breaking the republican mo- nopoly that has received several se- were blows in recent days. As the league is non-partisan and is found- ed on the principle of supporting the worthiest cause, party lines have been shattered and it is on this nope that the democrats might nominate Mrs. Lardner.
 The republicans point out that ss stevens has openly supported the visiting nurse proposition it is i'm probable that the members of the league would throw their votes against him.. The results of the moves of both parties will show themselves tonight at the caucuses and both parties ask for big at tendance.
 ScIectE.cn to Meet

~ " cW I OTE Avenue
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The
farmers hired man is doing better
than the farmer, according to the
National Industrial Conference
boards annual study Of farm earn
ihgs.> based on the crop year 1885.
Hired hands averaged $575 for the
year. The farmers averaged 1919.
but the beard said, $239 of this on
the average must be counted as a
return on the money invested in
farms, leaving farmers an average
Of $44O for their years hard work
and management.
Included in the 1919 total was not
only cash, but food, fuel and shelter
furnished by the farm, the report
said. Tenant farmers, however,
averaged over 5000 apiece.
The farmers income increased by
per cent over that of 1924-25, but
the general cost Of living increased
slightly more, so that the farmers
as a whole are losing ground.

CREDIT DEFINED
Minimum Value Should Be
$25, Says C. of c.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Install-
ment selling can be safe and sane,
according to the United States
Chamber of Commerce.
when confined" the Chamber
contends in a published survey, Ito
articles of considerable unit vaIue,
and of more than temporary useful
ness, it is not an improper amplica-
ton of the credit idea, and enables
thousands of people to benefit by
ownership of articles which, if pro-
durable only by immediate single
payments, they never could hope to
possess"
The Chamber reaches the follow
ing conclusions:
The minimum value of any article
which can properly be sold on time
is possibly $25.
When applied to the purchase Of
really useful articles, the installment
plan is almost a savings device.
