WOMAN DR0WNS
 CLOSE TO SHORE

North Action, Mass. Aug. 30.-- (UP)-A 24-year-old mother sank suddenly and drowned close to shore early today after swimming PTS feet with man companion follow ing the capsizing of their boat in Lake Nagog.
 The body of Mrs. Virginia Roche Newton of South Action was recov- cred by police with grappling irons. Police applied artificial respiration for an hour before she was pro- nounced dead.
 Neville Holland, 30, of North Ac- ton said that when the boat cap- sized he and the woman swan to an island. After resting a few min- utes, he said, they started swim ming for the mainland and were within 30 feet of shore when she sank.
 Holland said he d.ved repeatedly but could not save her.

convention, which started about 8:30 o'clock. Burgess Joseph L.. Dinneny, town committee chairman, opened the session, and Warden Sheridan was made permanent chairman Of the meeting, with Deputy Sheriff Daniel J. Callahan as clerk.
 The delegation voted to support MT. Nolan "as long as he is in the race" Both Attorney Freeman and Warden Sheridan lauded MT. Nolan for his ability and untiring energy and said reports indicate MT. Nolan has a fine chance for the nomina- tion. Attorney Freeman will put his name in nomination at the Dem ocratic convention. He pointed out that Naugauck with huge Demo- cratic majority in the 1936 election gavee State Senator Frank McDer- mott the winning margin. Except 10 rthe local majority MT. McDer- mott would have lost. Attorney Freeman declared he will tell the convention 1t owes 1t to Naugatuck which has been repeatedly Demo- cratic, that MT. Noland be selected.
 Nomination of D. Emmet Shea as judge of probate on the Democratic ticket seems certain now that the local five delegates Co the probate convention are pledged to support him. Beacon Falls will send two delegates to this convention. Judge Sheas record was also praised by Attorney Freeman.
 The move to endorse Congress- man J. Joseph Smith and Sheriff Slavin came as no surprise. After the main business was over, promi- nent leaders wer calld on for ad- dresses.
 Attorney Freeman in a lengthy talk said he has never before seen such harmony in the Democratic Party percy here and declared Re- publicans have not similar har- mony here. He told of hearing MT McLevy in Waterbury at q meeting sponsored by the Taxpayers Asso- ciation which MT. Freeman char acterized as composed of "Republ.- cans and disgruntled Democrats".
 If Republicanism will swallow Socialism, the Democratic party will never lower the flag which stands for liberty nor hoist the Socialist plag which stands for regimenta- ton, Attorney Freeman asserted.

|COLD FOODS SAFE FOR CONSUMPTION
Danger to Health Shown Through Increase of
 Harmful Bacteria

Housewives are reminded, in the state department of health's weekly bulletin, of the necessity for storing periShable foods at temperature below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, to avoid danger to dealth through an increase of harmful bacteria.
 Spoilage of food occurs when yeast, molds or bacteria grow in or upon 1t, use up the food elements and give off disagreeable or toxic products which are often, but not always, detected by sight, taste or smell. Yeasts and molds present & purely economic problem whils bac- teria present health hazards as well. Moisture and a certain degree of warmth are necessary for the growth of this germ life. Modern household economies stresses the | importance of low temperatures in controlling germ growth. AS the temperature IS decreased, growth rates of germs slow down and when a sufficient degree of cold has been attained growth comes to a stand still Freezing is an excellent pre- servative measure but 1t usually is not desirable to make use of this process for household purposes.
 To show the effect of low temper ature, it has been found that milk placed in the refrigerator on deliv- cry and kept there twenty four hours will contain practically no more bacteria than when delivered, but milk left in the room during this time, at a temperature of 70 degree Fahrenheit, will have an in- crease of 150 times the number of facteria. This should point lesson to the housewife who has been in the habit of leaving partly filled milk bottles in warm room during even a portion Of the day. Likewise, the practice of pouring milk left over from the last meal into the cold supply in the refrigerator should be discouraged.
 The fooos which may become hcaJth hazards when spoilage has started are largely protein in nature, for example, meat. fish, eggs, and milk products. Eggs and milk are of particular importance when in- corporated in sauces or desserts not thoroughly cooked. On foods of this type contaminating bacteria will grow in profusion If the temperature rises above 50 degrees F.--the dan ger line. These bacteria may be harmful ones capable of causing food borne infections or of produc- ing dangerous toxins, yet they may not have produced any detectible effect upon the food itself.
 Clean, wholesome products from dependable dealers should be the aim of every housewife who is con- ccrned with the health of her family When perishable foods are brought home, they should be placed where they will be rapidly chilled to tenn perature between 40 and 50 degrees F. and maintained at that tempera- ture.

DIRECTORSSEEK
 TO JOIN UNIONS

Hollywood, Aug. 30-UP) Three of Hollywood's highest paid directors appeared before the national labor relations board today to argue that they are just aS much "laborers" as the men who get $2 q day. Frank Capra, who receives $l0000 week Howard Hawks, who gets $8,000, and Reuben Mamoulian. $4000 week boss Katharine Hepburn, Grcta Garbo. Myrna Loy and other of the movie beauties. They are opposing 10 major motion pictures studios, arguing that despite their big sal aries they arc laborers and entitled to form a labor union under the Wagner labor act.
 Producers headed by Daryl F. Zanuck contend that they are not laborers, but are contractors. They claim the Wagner act was not in- tended for workers getting such sal aries.
 Capra, Hawks, Hamoulian and other top-flight directors have been called as expert witnesses by the screen directors guild. The guild is seeking recognition from the studios as sole bargaining agency for direc- tors, assistant directors and unit managers.

MAY YOHE STILL
 IS BEAUTIFUL
Looks Much Younger Than She Really Was as She
 Lies in Casket

Boston, Aug. 30-UP)--A queue of the curious.formed outside Rox- bury funeral parlor today for a last glimpse of May Yohe, gay nineties glamour girl who won the plaudits of two continents and, ironically, ended her career on the WPA.
 Most of the hundreds who passed the plain gray velvet casket last night or awaited their turn this morning knew May only through newspaper "reminiscences of her stormy past of gay romance and adventure. For, living in poverty, she and her Sickly third husband, Captain John Shuts, never had tried to make friends.
 She Was 72
 When May applied for restora- ton of citizenship this spring, she swore her age was 72, but, in her casket, clad in a pale pink gown, she looked years younger. By coin cidence, the same editions of last Sundays newspapers which report ed her death also carried Boston plastic surgeons advertisement boaSting that May Yohe'S new beauty was due to his handiwork.
 Among scores of cablegrams and telegrams of condolence received by Captain Shuts was one from Joseph P. Kennedy, American ambassador to Great Britain. In his boyhood, he recalled, he saw May at a Bos- ton theater in Honey, Ma Honey"
 Body to Be Cremated
 Tomorrow, the body will lie in state for four hours prior to simple funeral services at Forest Hills crematory.
 Later this week, Captain Shuts will go off Cape Cod in small boat and "scatter the ashes to the seven seas" In the ashes will be a little gold locket which Mays parents gave her in her childhood-the sole remaining trinket of her $3,000, 900 fortune in jewels which once in- cluded the treasured but ill-omcned Hope diamond.

 MT. Roosevelt had endorsed and emphasized as recently as last week that he desired return to the sen ate of the 74-year old McAdoo, vet eran of many political wars.

 San Francisco betting commis- sioners gave odds of 9 to that Mo- Adoo would win. But DoWney and Preston were confident.
