The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-08-18

Democrats have part of their troubles over with, now that caucuses are out of the way. The republicans are beginning to have theirs. Caucuses or primaries are scheduled for the 26th under the g. o. p. rules and the conventions will be held the 3Oth. In the mean time the republicans are now scheduled for fractional fights all over the state, with Wat erbury included. The reorgani- zation movement on foot here is not alone. Similar steps are on in other communities.
 Last night the Milford re publicans conferred at length for the purpose of eliminating a fight between the town com mittee, The Guyott group, the Young Mems Republican club, the Young Women's Republi- can club and the Milford lea gue of women. Much cOntro- versy took place over the can- didatcs for nomination to the general assembly for the house. At the last session of the legislature William A. Ford and Warren A. Field represented Milford in the house. Usually the g. o. D. of Milford have given repre- sentatives two terms but last year Louis E. GuyOtt was dropped and representative Field picked in his place. Therefore, a fight is on which may run all the way up to the time of the party convention.
 In Devon the progressive element of the second district republican organization have achieved victory. They have pushed through their slate for delegates to the state, sena- torial, congressional and county conventions by getting control of the g. o. p. town committee.
 On September Sth, a few days prior to the opening of the 2. O. D. state convention in Hartford, the Milford re- publicans will hold a get.to- gcther at GitliZt grove in West River street. It is believed pOs- siblc that if efforts to make peace among the warning fac tions have failed by that time perhaps the sociable feeling of an outing will bring about last-minute, preconvention feeling of good fellowship.
 The New Haven republican town committee has held meeting at the Hotel Taft and has endorsed the candidacy of Attorney Edward J. Lynch for the z. o. p. senatorial nOmina- ton in the eighth district. The present regular organization headed by Clarence G. Will lard, right-h man of State chairman J. Henry ROraback, is being strongly opposed by the forces behind cx-MayOr James Fully. Therefore, the en dOr c m c n of Attorney Lynch or other republicans i'm New Haven by regular group is likely to be turned down if the Fully forces are successful in the caucuses fate this month.
 The young republicans of seven towns in the 24th sena- tOrial district have decided to get together and make sure that their district will stay in the 2. o. D. column once more this year. The young republi- cans of the 25th district have done so, too. But right near home the young republicans are functioning in a similar manner, right in Waterbury, for instance, and also in Vol. cOtt.
 New Haven and Fairfield county republicans are re- ported up in arms over the so- called decision to run States Attorney Arthur NJ. Brown Of New London county for gov ernOr. By no means have the New Haven republicans dcsert- ed Lieutenant- Governor Hoy Wilcox of Meridss. who ' would like the gubernatOrial nomination. And in Fairfield county there is apparently no
