quickly so that plans for the com ing city election may be pushed ahead.
 Congressman Goss is expected to be the guiding genius in the selec- ton of the new town committee chairman. There were reports cur rent to-day that he might be asked to take over the chairmanship him. self and lead the republican party of Waterbury through the coming city election. He resigned last year, it will be remembered, after he was elected to congress. If he did take over the reins at this time, it is argued, he would know just what steps to take to solidify the party and put 1t on an active basis.
 The name of Coroner John T. Monzani and that of Harry Coe were prominent to-day, also, in talk among republicans. Either of these two men would make good chair man, it is argued. However, both these men are not seeking the honor and wish time to think the matter over before taking any action.
 Town Chairman Deacon offered his resignation because he felt that his business needed all his time. Politics, he found. take too much time from a business man.
 The selection of the chairman must be made very quickly as the city election is only about 15 weeks away.

INVENTOR OF RUBBER HEELS
Born in Ireland 78 Years Ago Died in Lowell
 Saturday
INTERESTING CAREER

Humphrey O'Sullivan, inventor of O'Sullivan's rubber heels, who died Monday at his home in Lowell, Mass, had many acquaintances in this city. <! Mir O'Sullivan was born in Skib- berean, County Cork, Ireland, Octo- ! Der z, 1853, the third son of Timothy and Catherine Barry o Sullivan. Following his education in the State school, he served an apprenticeship as printer and became an expert type-setter. Even in his semi-re- tirement of the last few years he continued to carry a membership card in the Lowell Typographical union. In 1874 he went to New York and for time followed his trade in Yonkers, later moving to Lowell where his brother the late James O'Sullivan, was engaged i'll the retail shoe business.
 He obtained a position on various newspapers in this vicinity but as the industry was in chaos In those days because of lack of organiza- . tion, the young immigrant abandon ed the trade and became a partner in the shoe business of his brother. Of an observing nature, Humphrey soon found an avenue of expression I | jar of leather heels on concrete pavements which were then becom- ing common aroused his interest and he set to work to perfect an arti- ficial cushion.
 The result was the rubber heel in- vented In the little shoe store where he and his brother were carrying on business on an original capital of | c ThA fvxv,n tn oI under Humphreys name and the O'Sullivan Rubber company was in- corporated on August 28, 1899 for the manufacture of the O'Sullivan rubber heels. James O'Sullivan was treasurer and advertising manager, and J. Mum Andrews, secretary and manager. MT Andrews still survives but the business was sold some fif- | teen years ago for a large sum.
 The office of advertising manager came to be the most significant in the new orga nization for MT OSulli- vans early experiences as q printer convinced him of it's value. A good share of the early profits from the rubber heel were used to buy space | in newspapers and periodicals all over the country and this campaign eventually became one of the great est in modern merchandising. Later it extended to the British Isles and continental Europe.
 | MT O'Sullivan had various other business interests which occupied his attention almost to the time of his death. He was staunch democrat and contributed generously of his wealth and experience to the local. state and national councils and | treasuries of the party. He was frequent delegate to national con ventions.

Auto Crash of Last Sunday Night Causes Conflicting Testimony in Court To-day-Judge McGrath Con- tinues It One Day to Secure Additional Witnesses

Two policemen testifying this morning in police court declared very emphatically that Andrew j. Dubiel, 33, of 35 Rowley avenue was under the influence of liquor last Sunday evening when his car figured in a triple collision.
 Five civilians, including Deputy Sheriff William J. Rigney held con- trary opinions and gave testimony to the effect that Dubiel was ap- parently more dazed or shocked than under the influence of drink As both defense and state consider the expected evidence of absent wit nesses important Judge John F. Mo- Grath ordered the case postponed one day.
 Sunday evening about 9:30 o'clock a car owned by George Bouffard of Woodtick road was parked near Wootton's drug store when ma chine operated by Dubiel crashed into the rear of it. Dubieps car swerving to one side collided with d, machine driven by Van Ness Pal mer of 523 North Main street. Bouf- fard's and Palmer's cars were con- sidered badly damaged.
 In response to telephone call to police headquarters, Patrolmen JO- seph Petit and Thomas Phelan in- vestigated the accident and after hearing the statements of the three drivers placed Dubiel under arrest. Tn the presence of Bouffard and Palmer, the accused driver admitted having had a couple of highballs.
 The two officers claiming that. they had made the arrest on the com- plaints of the two drivers and specta- tora testified this morning that in their opinion the defendant was un- der the influence of liquor. adding that the usual tell-tale signs were noticeable, the odor of his breath, speech, and the way in which he walked.
 Both Bouffard and Palmer testi- fled that they did not consider Dubiel under the influence of liquor, not withstanding his admissions. He acted very quietly, gave his name and address, displayed his drivers license, assumed responsibility for the crash, and agreed to pay for the damages.
 Deputy Sheriff William J. Rigney called as a state witness proved more favorable to the accused. He stated that Dubiel acted dazed rom the shock of the accident. MT Woot- ton and A clerk testified also that Duhiel was one of the quietest men they had ever seen after an acci- dent. He did not stagger when ne walked. at least as far as they could observe.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-06-24

Attorney John F. Tobin, counsel for Dubiel, claimed that another important witnessed named Montana bault was not present in court and he desired to have him testify. Lieutenant Milton MacMullen, a state witness, was also absent. He was on the desk when the accused was booked at police headquarters.
 Both Bouffard and Palmer were asked by Prosecuting Attorney Emil Hummel whether or not the fact that Dubiel had promised to make good the damages made him sober now and not on the night of the accident. Both replied that it did not.
 The testimony of the missing wit nesses may be the deciding point of the case. It Is the second time in eight years that Dubiel faced such a charge. He did not take the witness stand this morning, but his counsel explained that the accident was due to the fact that he was blinded by the lights on Palmer's car as he made the turn near the Meriden and Southmayd roads.
