MRS. GARNER
 DOESN'T WISH
 TO DIE 1'NOW''
Will Shatter Washington Precedents and Work Says She Would Die If She Didn't Work

Washington, Dec 3.--( UP) Mrs John Nancy Garner. who has been Q earning office worker for 90 years, intimated to-day she will shatter Washington's goid- braided social and political prece- dents by continuing to work after her husband becomes vice. presi- dent of the United States.
 "A man or woman who suddenly retires after he has been in busl- ness for the greater part of his life, generally dies" she said. And don't want -tofdie."
 Since she came to Washington in 1903, Mrs Garner has shared her husbands work. She now handles all business of his com gressional district. If she desires, it is understood, he will continue her in man-sized job, doing con- fidential tasks and otherwise being an assistant president, just as in the past she has been an assist ant congressman.
 It would be simple to move her coffee pots and portable stove from her present office in the Capitol to the luxurious chambers of the vice president in the senate office building. There she could continue doing her husbands work and warming his stomach with her own brand of chile con carne at midday.
 On her desk would be spine- less cactus, with 8 portrait of Gar ner and a picture of the Lone Star states flag painted on its petals. Miss Ruby Reid Robinson, of Waco, Texas, sent the plant, writ ing that the thornless gift was suggestive of the, success I'm sure he. (Garner) will effect in re- moving many of the thorns from the affairs of state-you helping"
 With such sentiments from the folks back home Mrs Garner would comfort herself when so-

CITY HAS. VERY
 INTERESTING
 TRIAL COMING
Waterbury Asks $5,OOO Damages From the Firm of Barbara and D'AuriO CO-Legal Point COn= test

An interesting point in law is expected to be raised in the trial this coming week in superior court of the case of the city of Water bury against Barbara & D'Aurio Co, in which the city claims $5,000 damages. The question is whether the city can recover against the defendant company for a verdict returned in the last court term against the city.
 The city was sued for damages by Mrs Mary SiZer for injuries she suffered when she fell into an ex- cavation near Fairmount bridge in Waterville. She was awarded dam ages of around $4.000. The city appealed to the supreme court which upheld the verdict.
 Barbara & D'Aurio was the con- tracting firm which was engaged in constructing water system near the bridge when Mrs SiZer was injured. It is the claim of the city in the case against the con- tracting company that the defend- ant company was negligent inl per- mitting the excavation to remain unguarded and unsafe for pedes- trians, resulting in the damage suit against the municipality.
 Corporation Counsel Charles S, -O'Connor@ will not appear as coun- seI in the case for the city. he hav- ing received permission to with draw as the representative of the city in superior court this week. MT O'Connor told the court he might be called in the case as a witness. Assistant Corporation Counsel Timothy S. Sullivan and Claims Attorney Vincent A. Scully will represent the city. Attorney Walter E. MoHagan will represent the contracting company.
