MERIT SYSTEM
 FAvORS BAB|N
Approval Given on Method of Picking Social Sc.
 curity Help Here

Postmaster Charles A. Babin's ! methods in picking additional help for work in the social security de- partment here has been approved by the Waterbury chapter of the Connecticut Merit System associa- ton. Similar procedure is being followed by the postmaster fin pick ing additional clerks and carriers to take care of the Christmas mail rush.
 All persons who have passed civil service examinations are kept on Q list here known as the eligible regis- ter. When the need for additional help comes members on the eligible register were notified. Those who have permanent jobs cannot afford to take the temporary jobs. All that are available are given first choice. As the necessary quota is not filled, Postmaster Babin then takes in temporary help, making his se- lections from persons qualified to perform the work expected of them. He not only takes into consideration ability to perform the work but also character and integrity of the temporary employees.
 The local chapter of the Connec- ticut Merit System association con- tends that this procedure tends to increase efficiency in government and excludes the 'spoils system"

between 6pellacy and Hayes and Governor Cross, Senator Maloney and National Committeeman David E. FitzGerald is expected to be 8 spectacular one.
 Some Claims Made
 It is being claimed that the gov- ernor, Senator Maloney and Com mitteenan FitzGerald have lined up the majority of the democratic sen- Ators who will sit in at the 1897 session and will control the caucus.
 National Committeeman Fitz- Gerald is not, at the present time at least, opposing the right of Lieu tenant Governor Hayes to name his choice for the clerkship of the sen- ate. However, if the battle becomes too bitter a change in attitude on the part of the New Haven ex- mayor is very likely with Governor Gross and his allies doing all the picking of senate officers.

doom ct the hands of their fellow citizens"
 Gross Likes Devlin
 With Senator Lawlor as president pro tempore, Governor Gross would like to see Senator Devlin the ma- jority leader, thus assuring him the post as chairman of the powerful Judiciary committee. He was the democratic leader during the 195S session and should, 1t Is contended, be named the majority leader for the 1897 session. It is also contend- ed that Senator Lawlor is the dean of the senate and should be honored with the post of president pro tempore.

acting governor if Cross and Hayes are both out of the state and be- comes neutenant-goyernor if Mayor Hayes advances permanently to Cross chair in the event of the death of the latter.
 LawIor, Culhane With Cross The battle between the leaders Is of special local interest because Of the fact that Senators Lawlor and George Culhane will be allied with Governor Cross and against Mayor Hayes. Lawlor comes up for reap pointment as state athletic commis- sioner this year and must depend on nomination by Governor Cross. His term is for four years.
 National Committeeman FitzGer- aid and U. 8. Senator Maloney have been openly at odds with the Spell lacy Hayes combine since the spring convention of the democratic party in New Haven last May. At that time the FitzGerald -Maloney forces defeated the Spellacy Hayes choice for national committeeman, Attor- ney Paul R. Connery of Norwalk.
 Spellacy, Hayes Took Walk
 At recent private" meeting of state democratic leaders in the ex- ecutive chambers of Governor Cross at the Capitol Mayor Spellacy attempted to dictate who would be named to the various posts in the senate for the 1897 session. When his ideas were objected to by Gov ernor Cross, Spellacy got up and walked out. He was followed by Lieutenant- Governor Hayes.
 Governor Cross is making no at- tempt to hide the fact that he has pledged himself to Senator Lawlor of this city for the office of presi- dent pro tempore. Mayor Spellacy wants either Senator Elect Joseph P. Cooney of Hartford, a member ol his legal staff, or Senator Raymond J. Devlin of New Haven for the post. He wants Devlin, really, for the post so as to clear the way for majority leader for Senator Elect Cooney. AS majority leader, a post now held by Senator Devlin, Cooney would be chairman of the powerful judi ciary committee, the body through which the famous 1883 judgeship deal passed.

 Mayor Spellacy Is also reported to be casting a favorable eye on Senator William E. Hagearty Of New Britain for majority leader of pres ident pro tempore. Hagearty oo-

Wives and mothers of industrial workers whose employment brings them into contact with certain ma terials which may lead to dermatitis were urged by Warren A. Cook, chief industrial hygienist of the State Department of Health, in the departments weekly broadcast to- day, to see that these workers fol- low such habits of personal hygiene as will thoroughly remove any irri- taing materials from the skin.
 Thousands of workers in metal machining operations must keep their hands in contact with cutting oils and compounds, which together with fine particles of steel suspend ed in them may in time produce Q dermatosis, a skin condition which may become severe enough to force the worker to remain away from his occupation until 1t has cleared up. Affected areas may be invaded by infectious organisms and Q ser- ious situation may develop.
 Surface Dirt
 Hands and forearms must be washed thoroughly at noon and at the end of the day with hot water and non- irritating soap, since su- perficial rinsing will only take off surface dirt and leave minute abra- sions or dirt in such 8 manner that dermatitis may result, MT. Cook said. If in addition each work CT has his own soap and towel, these measures will in the majority of cases prevent oil dermatitis.
 Where lanolin is used to prevent rusting of metal parts in process or in storage, this material, which is insolube in water, gets into the pores and must. be removed by the emulsifying action of soap and hot water, MT. Cook stated. Certain waxes, largely used in connection with wire insulation. tend to cause prominent blackheads unless per- sonal hygiene is given proper atten- ton. Synthetic resins used in man. ufacture of molded products, may also cause derrnatitis, and, although hypersensitivity plays large part in
