Dr. Munger died Saturday night as the s. s. Sanaria, on which he was returning from Liverpool, came into port, his demise apparently has, tened by news of the death of his son, John Clarke Munger, 31, of New York city, who was travelling with him and who a few days previous had been buried at sea. Ill with a heart attack since he came aboard ship in Liverpool on September 18, Dr. Munger had not been informed of his sons death until Friday for fear 1t would impede his recovery.
 Died at Sea
 The young man took his own life in his stateroom Monday, September 2l, and his father had constantly called for his son until he was told of the death Friday. Dr. Munger grew rapidly weaker, succumbing the next night.
 Tribute was paid Dr. Munger by physicians throughout the city, among them Dr. Nelson A. Pomeroy, a close friend, and Dr. M. Heminway Merriman, with whom the deceased had for several years prior to his retirement been associated.
 Great Traveller
 Dr. Munger had practiced in this city and Watertown for 46 years, re- tiring about six years ago. An ex- tensive traveller, he had taken trips around the world several times and had crossed the Atlantic 35 times. He studied for his speciality under world famous surgeons in Europe be- fore returning to practice in Water bury and was on the staffs of Wa terbury and New York hospitals. In 1892 he became member of the staff of the Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat hospital and was occasionally called to New York to perform op- erations.
 Son Survives
 His only surviving son, Ralph s. Munger, assistant secretary or the Colonial Trust company, planned to board the vessel at Boston and finish the journey to New York, but was advised by officials that 1t would not accept passengers at that point and had then arranged to meet the boat at New York. Dr. Munger was a member of the following societies: Waterbury Medical association, New Haven County Medical society, Connecticut Medical society, New York Academy of Medicine, the American Laryngological, Rhino- logical and Biological society. He was also a member of the Society of Colonial Wars, the Waterbury

 Awaiting Approval
 The entire business is now in the hands of the bureau of budget, awaiting the approval of the pres jdent. Last week, in some quarters, it was supposed that the project might have been in New Haven, but the announcement today clearly in- dicates that MT. Dort would make every effort to push the matter through. If this works out 1t is ex- pected that the project will be re- stunned here in short time.
 In the meantime, several members of the staff who have been wait ing since last Tuesday for some def mite word in connection with re- sumption or disapproval of the To- cal project, have requested that they be transferred to some other branch of the local WPA.

Traffic Survey Project Here Rewritten
Health Officials Recommend Change
 In Milk Ordinance

Passage of an ordinance requir- ing that all milk sold in Water bury be pasteurixed will be pro- posed tomorrow at . meeting of the board of health. At the present time 70 per cent of the milk dispensed here is 90 treated, the remainder being known as fresh" milk. The action of the health commissioners, if taken, will be revolutionary in way.
 UnduIant fever, that results from the drinking of contaminat- cd fresh milk, has been quite noticeable in this state and else where in the country, it Is un- derstOod. Pasteurization of the milk would wipe out this threat to the health of the milk con- sumers, 1t is claimed. The health board is also considering the pos- sible presence of ther germs in unpasteurized milk in considering the new ruling.
 Tomorrow's meeting will take place at 5 o'clock in the after noon. Some years ago the health board took steps to protect the consumers of milk in the city by requiring that all of the product retaiIed here be in bottles. The use of milk cans and the like was banned.
