NAUGATUCK

Al close battle in the third ward
won by Representative William
Meperndotf BY a margin OF 19
votes and an emphatic denial by
Attorney Henry j, Freeman that
Representative McDern0tt' spon-
lrored a bill which would compel
women work In factories DUR
Ing nights featured the dennucra-
tic caucuses last night.
Delegates favorable to Repre-
sentative McDermott defeated
delegates favorable to Thomas r.
Reilly, former registrar and form
err representative, by a vote Of 81
20. Delegates favorable to Joseph
jackson won in the second ward
with no opponent in sight or hear
Ing, and q group supporting Rich
ard Durkin was victorious without
opposition in the first ward.
Two representatives and five
justices of the peace will be
chosen at the democratic party
convention at 8 o'clock in the
borough courtroom Thursday
night.
The speech giveh by Attorney
Freeman in the third ward after
the vote was announced was espe-
cially significant in view of the
fact rumors were current that
Representative McDermott would
be a poor candidate because 1t was
reported that he had INTRODUCED q
bill In the legislature which would
make local women and others
work all night.
This bill was not sponsored by
Representative McDermott but
was sponsored by Senator Lynch,
republican and she should have
to answer for 1t, said Attorney
Freeman.
The bill (which is quoted in can
other section Of this column) Is a
tricky one and would lead one to
believe 1t is favoring women except
for the final clause, said the law
yer. Representative McDermott is
friend CT labor, he would not
vote for such a bill and did not,
Mr. Freeman asserted.
Praises McDermOtt
Attorney Freeman said he was
not candidate for representative,
that he was for Representative
McDermott first, last and always,
and denied a report Representative
McDermott was looking for every
thing. In the rs years in which
Representative McDermott has
been hard worker for the demoy
Gratis he said, McDermott has re-
ceived no financial income from
any Office except month spent as
borough clerk. Attorney Freeman

/ succeeded Representative McDer-
mott as borough clerk. The lawyer
added McDermott left this position
because PRESSURE Of running his
store was too much combined with
the work Of borough clerk. He
denied McDermott was not able to
handle the borough clerkship at
that time.
Pointing to sacrifices made by
McDermott such as running
against the late Howard B. Tutt1e
for the position Of warden in 1918
although his chances were admit
teddy slim, Attorney Freeman said
II stigmatize the characterization
McDermott Is seeking self ad-
vancement.
He paid a tribue to the defeated
candidate, Mr. Reilly, saying he
made an excellent registrar of
voters when he held the position.
He appealed to the Reilly forces
to vote for the party, saying, 'too
often instead Of burying the
hatche, we go out and bury 1t in
some mans head" He pointed out
he predicted q 500 majority DEM
ocratic here at the spring election
and now he predicts a majority of
1000 in town and q 10000 ma
jority in the state. He character
lied President Roosevelt as 1.-THE
greatest president we have had
since Washington"
First Ward Caucus
In the first ward Mr. Durkin,
ward committeeman, presided and
was chosen permanent chairman.
Hugh Hearns was named secretary
Delegates favorable to Durkin
were put IN nomination and were
declared unanimously g lected
when no other nominations were
made and vote taken.
\ The assemblage stood in silence
for one minute in honor Of former
Burgess Dennis J. Curtin who died
Sunday. The caucus was over quite
quickly. In the second ward John
Herman was chosen permanent
chairman, and Alec j. Mccarthy
secretary. Frank Green. town COM

and after vote these were unani-
mously chosen.

gerald and George Fellow were

the warden, Mr. Whittemore and
Mr. Groh would inspect the FERA
projects this morning at 10 o'clock.
The borough has nearly finished
its section Of the work at Recrea-
alton field the borough engineer
stated. There is still grading to
be done, but the welfare depart
ment men are doing this under the
supervision of Mr. Sheppardson,
landscape gardener for Mr. Whit
temore, who has not yet taken any
pay for the work.
Mr. Whittemore said there Is
Jack of shovels on some jobs but
Warden Sheridan said some be
filled soon. "Some workers use
their shovels like picks" he said,
land that is why they are worn
out" He said he did not believe
shovels We're stolen, although Mr.
Groh said occasionally a tool box
is found broken into.
The project of erecting a re-
tanning wall near the Pompano
property on South Main street was
approved by the board and the
warden and approval of 1t at state
headquarters will NOW be sought.
Work on 1t Is not expected to
begin immediately after approval
by the state. however.
High Street Project
The High street project was dis
.cussed and indications are this
will be the biggest project the
FERA here has yet tackled. I'M
der 1t the street from Cemetery
street to Orchard Terrace will be
widened.
This will require 10000 yards
Of dirt and 3,500-4,00O yards of
rock wall. Mr. Bloom stated. He
suggested the borough use a steam
shovel which would be used in ex-
would cost $40 day but said 1t
would more than make up for its
cost in the time saved. Only five
bucketfuls of dirt raised by the
shovel would load truck whereas
It would take many men long
time to fill single truck.
This project is four times as big
as the johnson street job, he said.
1t has not yet been approved by
the warden or the state. Materials
for the South Main street job will
cost only $94, but the two trucks
and compressor used will cost $3.50,
or total Of $3.50 as the borough's
share, the engineer said.
In making out the formula by
which the amount to be allotted to
a town is arrived at, Mr. white
more declared, consideration Is
taken as to how much the town
involved will spend. The larger
amount the town Is willing to
spend scarcely anything, its allot-
ment will shrink considerably, he
asserted.
There. are five days of excavat-
ing work on Jones road, and eight
days of graveling left there, Mr.
Whittemore said.
Two new projects We're mem
toned at the meeting of the board.
The state has approved q white
