GOV. CURLEY IN POLITICAL COUP

! Boston, Aug. 15-(UP)-Gover- nor Curley, in a surprise move soon after propagation of the legis- lature early today, appointed Ed. mond Cote, republican member or the executive council, as chairman of the Fall River Finance board. This will enable the governor to ap- point a democrat as Cote's success or, giving Curley control of the council, which now consists of five republicans and four democrats. Governor Curley announced that Philip Russel, Fall River democrat, would be his choice to succeed Co., te. This appointment will be sub- mitted to the executive council at it's meeting next Thursday. If Rus sells appointment is confirmed. the democrats will control the council for the first time in many years.
 The republican majority in the council has baked Curley's at tempts to oust his political enemy, Eugene c. Huffman, republican, from the chairmanship of the Metropolitan district commission. If democrats seize control of the counci, removal of Huffman is an- ticitpated. A democratic majority also would aid the governor in con- nection with many important ap- pointments scheduled for the next few months. Perhaps most impor- tant, however. is the fact that a democratic council would enable Governor Curley to oust any state official who failed to cooperate with the administration.

 Two flappers (sounds pre-. historic, doesn't it?) ambl- ing bout the village today, couldn't figure out how the straw-thatched roofs on some of the cottages, shed water. They thought straw was only used to make hats or bedding for horses. Needless to state, their education was greatly improved as a result of the visit.
