They may go on doing so, but my record is clear and am still a full fledged democrat, with a clear record. In passing, may remind my supporters in the dem ocratic party ranks of the third ward, that Thomas Walker is a registered republican and has worked at few elections very hard for the success of that party. I certainly believe that Burgesses Brophy and Dinneny have much to answer for to the public, notwith- standing opinions they may hold to the contrary.

and the public knows that I ad- vocated from the very start, the principles as outlined by Warden John J. Sheridan in his address at the democratic party town conven- tion when he accepted the nomi- nation for ihs second term. Warden Sheridan at that time, praised those who were responsible for suc- cessful administration and went on record as saying if he was reelect- ed, he wanted to have the same men retained in office. By that he meant Supt. of Streets James Bro- phy, Borough Atty. Martin E. Gormley, Borough Engineer Robert D. Beardsley, Borough Clerk Charles F. Daily, Building Inspector Andrew c. Bentley, and last but not least, Fire Chief Milton Calvin.
 "When I was renominated at the third ward caucus of the demo- cratic party, I went on record as not only indorsing the policies as outlined by Warden Sheridan, but also the reappointment of all those who did such fine work the past year which resulted in Naugatuck having one of the finest adminis- trations in it's history.
 Well, while I was advocating the principals and policies of War den Sheridan, knowing full well that these would again safeguard not only the taxpayers, but all cit izens, what were my colleagues, Burgesses Brophy and Dinneny do- ing? The newspaper files will an- swer that question, but for the benefit of those who are not &C., quainted with the facts, I shall out line few. They were not whole heartedly backing Warden Sheri- dams candidacy. In the first place they were aligned with a certain few so-called leaders of Jefferson ian principles endeavoring to block Warden Sheridan's renomination and I have facts to prove they en- deavored to run another candidate, but he refused to accede to their desires.
