Both branches have been under the scrutiny of the merit system leaders since the institution of the system, and it is belic;SG that 51- fore long some definite action will be taken in regard to their con- tinuation or cessation of activity.
 30 Dismissed
 As the situation in the State Mo- tor Vehicle Department now stands 30 substitute workers have been dis missed during the past few months. The workers had been hired for the seasonal rushes, and the department believes that the branches can now operate efficiently without the addi- tional assistance.
 The Waterbury office lost two substitute workers by the curtall- ment measures, reducing the staff to l3 clerks, which was the situation back in l93'. Since 1881, however, the Waterbury branch office has surged ahead in issuance figures by several thousands, placing that much more work upon the shoulders of the 13 clerks. It has been re- ported that the Waterbury branch issues 3O0o00 licenses and registra- tions in the course of a year. Mrs. Alice Bradley is supervisor of the Waterbury branch of the motor vehicle department.
 Studying Plan
 The Norwalk station is believed to be slated for certain shutdown, in view of its proximity to the Stam- ford and Danbury sub-stations. It has been in operation compara- lively short time. Willimanti, on the other hand, had been in opera ton several years before the estab- lishment of the Norwalk base.
 Just what placement would De given the personnel of these two situations, should they be closed would be matter of conjecture.

 Virginia Cossette, two and one half year old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Philip Cossette of 636 Bank street, is tied with George today. Each has $500 votes. And George said:,
 "Shucks! Let them have their pictures alone if they want to. Who cares about pictures, anyhow? Votes are what want and what I'm going to get"
 You see the girls, or, more aco curately. the mothers and fathers oi some of the girls, complained that there are too many boys in the Con- test. Strangely enough, that's the same way the fathers and mothers of the boys feel-too many girls, !s theh attitude.

 T believe m the fable about the hare and the tortoise" Joan told The Democrat today. "Bunnies may leap and seem to be going awfully fast but they might break their legs, too. And ..len where would they be? My supporters know that l stand for substantial things and that's the way my vote is being ob- tained,-substantially. There's no reason for me to run. The race won't be to the swift this time and 1t won't be a boy, either, who sets that $100 cash first prize and the loving cup"
 Which would seem to mean that Joan has designc on the first prize and the title, Most Popular Baby.
 No Platform
 The third little girl shown today is the cuddliest candidate in the race. She's Joyce Crichton, daugh- ter of MT. and Mrs. James Crich- ton of 763 Baldwin street, and shes eighteen months old.
 Joyce Is holding back her an- nouncement of a platform but ii her campaign managers were to ask us what might be a factor in suc- cessful campaign we would answer: "Dimples and the sweetest smile of the year." Joyce has 1900 votes but has just started being active. And if the boys weren't busy getting votes for themselves, Joyce would prob- ably recruit from the opposition camp to the confusion of other con- tenders.
