JURORS SELECTED
 IN MURDER CASE
Waterburians to Sit With Grand Jury-Deputy
 Sheriff Killed

Dennis Clancy and John J. Crary, Jr., of this city are among the Is men of New Haven county who have been subpoenaed by States Attor- ney Samuel E. Hoyt to sit as grand jury at the hearing of John A. Palm of Mount Vernon, N. r., who is sus- pected of the staying of Deputy Sheriff Peter J. Kaminski, of Bea- con Falls at Milford, October 3. Act ing High Sheriff Daniel J.

Workman Given
 Allowance For Nose Infection
Ruling Issued on New Type of OccnpatiOnal Hazard;
 Chromium Fumes

Embodied in an award today by Compensation Com missioner James M. Lynch, which entities Alonzo Davis of Oakville to medical care at the expense of the Chromium Corporation of America, is a suggestion which might materially assist in averting any future similar claims and awards.
 Davis contracted a nose disease during his employment which con- sisted of driving a crane over chromium tanks, and also plating at the tanks. He inhaled the fumes of the chromium and this is at- tributed as the cause of the disease, and the reason for the award of medical expenses in the treatment thereof.
 Commissioner Lynch finds in his memorandum that the process of chromium plating Is comparatively new and that safeguard treatments are in their experimental stage. He notes, however, that the company has informed its employees that if the nostrels are moistened, there is little chance of injury. It is also noted that the company provides all employees with jars of vaseline, to be placed in the nostrils three times a day, morning, noon and night, to avert the possibilities Of injury.
 "As in most cases" comments Commissioner Lynch, Familiarity breeds contempt, and few of the men make use of this safeguard. His sug- gestion is that in some manner all employees should be gathered to- gether at certain times during the day, and treatment given by a spe- cialized first aid man.
