Naugatuck. May ls--Democrats were pleased today with the action of the borough beard In It's first meeting last night when all ma jor republican ofilce.holders whose positions were up for appointment were removed and democrats put in their places. A crowd of about 800 persons was kept waiting In tho town hall from 7;45 until i0:s5 or nearly three hours, before the meeting got underway.
 Democrats today feel that tho new appolntees who assumed of- Ice today will be quite capable of handling the tasks. Charles Daly got the important position of bor- ough clerk defeating tho former borough clerk, Edward Lingenheld, who iH q republican,

FInalIy Gets Ilarmony

Last Friday Burgess Sheridan announced to the Democrat corres- pendent that the meeting tonight would be harmonious as far us democrats were concerned. Ills pre- dlctlon was true on tho surface at least, but it took several hours tS secure this harmony.
 It is understood the democratic burgesses meeting Friday chose slate for the major offices. The town committee meeting Sunday. changed the slate to have Attorney Henry Freeman named borough att torney in place of Attorney Mar tin Gormley and William Staple ton chosen fire chief instead of Milton Calvin.

it was finally decided by the burgesses to reject the town com mlttee changes. Warden Sheridan said after the public meeting that year ago when fire Chief Walker was named, there vas. much pro- test on the appointment of a man who had not served as a fireman here previously. It was this that caused opposition of burgesses t0 the naming of Mir Suspicion.
 The new chief, Mir Calvin, has been q member of the fire depart front for many years and in ex- porionced in fire fighting. Warden Sheridan denied that any support to the renomination of Fire Chief Walker was ssBgested by demo- cratic burgess. He said the main discussion centerod around ur Calvin and MT Suspicion.

Milton Calvin, former first ward burgess, was appointed fire chief or chief engineer of tho fire depart. mont as tho position is officially named.
 Attorney Martin n. dormloy, twice candidate for congr6ssman from the fifth district, was chosen borough attorney. Democrats claim that in Atty. dormley they havo a man most capable of filling that position. He succeeds James Dal- three with tho warden casting the deciding ballot for 0ormloy.

expiration of terms of Mrs George Warner, republican, and Mrs Della Johnson, democrat. It is reported Daniol Callahan will be named as the democrat apppintee tU this pos sitlon and Thomas Dunnlng will be offered the republican position.
 No tree warden was yet named, but it Is expected Theodore Chism will bo named to this position later.
 One of the reasons for the long wait last night was, of course, that many persons forgot the meeting was by borough charter required to bo held at s o'clock standard time unless other action was taken. So those who came at 6 o'clock, daylight time, just had to walt an hour anyhow.
 A vote was taken later at the meeting to have future board meetings held ut o'clock stand ard time during tho summer while daylight savings time is still In use.

Warden Sheridan said he was also delayed by necessity of dis- cusalng with the master builders hero . proposal to combine the building and plumbing codes and the proposed electrical codes and have one inspector at q yearly sal- ary take care of all three divisions. At present there is . building Inc spootor appointed and the borough engineer is also the plumbing in- spoctor. No provision for an elec- trionl code inspector has yet been made. Tho matter was not taken up at the public meeting, however.
 Tho vote on borough clerk, on fire chef, on building inspector, on superlntendent of streets. on fire marshal was for votes in eaoh casn for tho democrats and three to tho republican retaining the of- flee hitherto. 1t was strictly along party lines, of course, with the thrce democratic burgassos and Warden Sheridan voting democratic.
 The position of street superin- tondont pays $2,i2b per year. The large aasomblage was mparative- ly tranquil cosiaidering the long walt most of them had. Onca somebody cried, Let's have an" other olootion", and got quite q laugh.

SAN FRANCISCO, September 15.--
Attracted by the mild climate and
nebulous reports of beneficial social
planning, destitute families from
drought-stricken States are moving
to the Pacific Coast, particularly to
California, In increasing numbers.
A progressive increase In the last
three months and indications that
the influx for September will top the
previous month by 20 to so per cent
was reported today by H. A. r. Carle-
ton, State director Of the Federal
Transit Service.
In June 662 families arrived and
registered with the Transient Service
In July the number was 706 and in
August 827. The families averaged
3h persons each.
Checking stations on highways
leading into Oregon reported the ar
rival of many families from drought
areas to the east. Many cars were
loaded not only with passengers but
with household equipment.
Many Reach Oregon.

them were in trucks laden with house.

ported many families from the Middle

immigrants could be settled on land
