 WheIan Withdraws
 Town Chairman Martin J. Whe. Ian of Wolcott. republican, who was a candidate for the post of county commissioner, withdrew his resolu- ton yesterday when the g.o.p. members of the legislature from New Haven county caucused. The caucus was held to decide on what persons the republicans will favor for the two county commissioner ships which become vacant this year. The group was unanimous in deciding against remaining Com missioners II. H. Gorton of Nauga- tuck and Henry Hall of Hamden, both republicans. There is some trouble over who they will name, though.
 Walters Candidate
 From all indications U. s. Mar shal Jacob D. Walter of Cheshire, whose federal job expires this year, will be given the commissioner ship. For the other post there is q deal on between some of the re- publicans and some democrats to give the post to q democrat. James J. Walsh of Meriden, former state chairman, and Senator Edmund Gebhardt of New Haven are being mentioned for the place. However. no decision was reached on the matter as the republicans in the deal arc waiting to see how former Chairman Walsh makes out in his quest for the post of revenue chief for Connecticut.
 On the other hand, Representa- tive Robert Gerrish of East Haven, republican, is seeking one of the county ommissionerships and so is Representative William McDer- mott, democrat, of Naugatuck. Therefore, the matter is far from settled.
 Furthermore, the democrats of the county have yet to caucus. It is known that they will be split on the question of whether to back Walsh, Gebhardt or McDermott.
 Pension Proposed
 When the judiciary committee met yesterday afternoon a bill was raised granting a pension to Mrs Belle Williams, widow of the late Compensation Commissioner Frederic M. Williams. Attorney W. J.
