 The Independent Democrats me Snwhile continue their merry campaign to install MT. Wall as registrar in place of MT. Taller. The Republican organization, according to MT. Faller's followers, is doing little or nothing to oppose MT. Wall and for that reason they have be- gun their own drive in MT. Faller's behalf. .
 Supposed to Withdraw
 At the time of the Republican and Independent Democratic con- Ventions 1t was confidently predict cd that Mir. Wall would withdraw in . day or two and leave the field open for Mir, Taller. But, MT. Wall did not do so, and, say MT. Faller's friends, chortled in glee ct the site uation. l
 All in all 1t makes D bit of @ headache for the FuSionists. The Independent Democrats are work ing for the election of MT. Wall as registrar, the Taller followers are campaigning for the reelection of their man, and the Republican or ganization is right in the middle.

Once there was 8 keeper of bees who registered his apiaries for six successive years at the town clerks office here. But he was among the missing this year.
 Bee business is showing a de- cided falling off hereabouts, the figures show. The matter is brought to public notice at this time because announcement has been received from the state en- tomologist's office that all hives must be registered before Oct. 1.
 And at the town clerks office only two owners of bees have giv- en notice of official ownership and paid their twenty-five cents for registration.
 They are Stanley Romanauskas and John Statkus, of 26 Quinsig- amond road, owners of 4 colonies of bees; and Carl Peterson, of Cheshire road, owner of five bee

Zoe BeckIey, noted newspaperwoman and interview of the great who lives in TOland gave the State Publicity Commission these reasons why she lives in Connecticut:
 Because of its frendliness it's decency it's blessed beauty quiet and peace. Because, born in New York City, have always lOnged for the real country-and don't mean Suburbia. Because, still living must part of the time in the atmosphere of Manhat tan IsIand my little Connecticut house with the old fashioned green in front and the ridge of hills behind is heavenly refuge and joy. There is character about expresses at it's best love the change of seasons, snOw frost and high winds included, and the incompar able cOIorngs of Autumn. Also find Connecticut ing which any woman finds pleasant! Yes-after trot- ting pretty well over the globe, I'll still take Connec ticut with its many beauties and is hard-tOdefine quality of humanness--and love it best" a. ZOE BECKLEY.

 Controller Daniel J. Leary told the more than 25O women who at- tended that those who left the ranks of the Democratic party de- serve no sympathy from their former associates. Their seeking for sympathy, he said, should be recognized as purely political gesture.
 Endorse Sentiments
 Similar sentiments were voiced by Mayor Frank Hayes. Mrs. Kill martin asked those present to pledge their support for the entire Demo- cratic ticket and to strive to the utmost to see that all the party'S candidates are placed in office.
 Other speakers were City Clerk John P. Fitzmaurice, City Treasurer Edward Futile, Town Chairman John H. Crary and City Sheriff Angelo Nardona.
 Members of the Booster club or- ganized themselves at separate caucuses into 20 district groups. A captain was elected in each district to direct the campaign plans for the women Democrats of that dis trict. The club will play an active role in the campaign.

 Miss Mary Hennessey, chairman predicted victory for the Democratic ticket at the polls October 5 and called on women Democrats of the city to support the party this year as they have so faithfully in the past.

reduced 50 per cent under the 1886 figure, and the enforcement index has risen steadily since the first of the year. The Accomplishments are made all the more impressive by the fact that 1t is less than a year since the Waterbury Accident Prevention Bureau was installed. William J. Roach is superinten. dent of the Waterbury Police Do. pertinent. Waterbury's Accident Prevention Bureau, like others was organized with the following pur- poses in mind: az,
 Purposes Stated
 1! To make possible the punish. ment of Q party to an accident fl 1t is found that through 3 violation of the law he caused the accident or contributed to the cause of it;
 9. To prevent occurrences of ac- cidents through enforcement, engi- i1eering, and education.
 The work of selecting and train- ing Waterbury's police officers for accident prevention waS completed near the close of 1886. In January the bureau pushed forward with its efforts to prevent accidents and to enforce properly the traffic laws of the city.
 Besides an excellent investiga- tive technique-as evidenced by the perfect hit and run record-they used the enforcement index as their guide and selective enforcement as one of their principal methods.
 Below is o record of the rise of Waterbury's enforcement index
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-09-18

which the average city should strive.
 4l6 arrests were made by the Wa terbury traffic police in the e64 ac. cidents investigated during tho first 2 months of this year. Con. victions followed arrests In 284 cas- es. Thus, arrests were made in 62.G percent of the accidents investigat- ed and convictions were obtained In 68.2 percent of such arrests.
 Other Features
 While the efforts of the Accident Prevention Bureau would naturally be centered upon enforcement, the education and engineering phases of accident prevention have not been neglected. Safety measures have been promoted through talks and discussions before school chil. dren and commercial organizations A summer playground safety pro- gram has been under way, where by the traffic police visit the play grounds of the city once @ week and give instructions along safety lines. The radio has been used for e series of weekly programs. Post CTS have been distributed all over the city.
 A new parking ordinance was adopted by the city to remove ace cident provoking hazards, streets have been repaired, with safety being one of the main factors con- sidered. High accident locations have been studied with 0 view to removing all possible contrihutory causes. Tn short, the Accident Pre- Vention Bureau of Waterbury, wherever possible, has made an in- telligent approach to the problem of traffic safety and traffic law enforcement.
