BOARD APPOINTS. NEW OFFICIALS.
Dr.. GOodenough, Dr.. GiI- yard Divide Duties of
 Late Dr. Keeley

The board of health, at a special meeting last night, appointed Dr. E. w. Goodenough, physician, and Dr. Richard T. Gilyard, veterinarian, to take over the inspection duties per- formed for almost 40 years by Dr. Peter T. Keeley.
 Dr. Goodenough will act as milk and food inspector, while Dr. Gill; yard will serve as meat and dairy inspector. Each will receive sal- ary of $1,625, and will divide the funds provided for expenses in the current budget.
 The boards first action was to take up division of the duties performed by Dr. Keeley. Dr. Edward J. God- frey, health officer, explained that the duties included inspection of food and foodhandlers, supervision of the slaughterhouse and of local dairies, examination of milk supplies, inspection of meat, and inspection of restaurants and bakeries.
 Commissioner J. Francis Smith moved that the one post held by Dr. Keeley be divided into two separate jobs, with a medical man to inspect milk and food and a veterinarian to inspect meat and dairies. When this motion was adopted, Dr. Edward H. Kirschbaum nominated Dr. Good enough as milk and food inspector, and Commissioner Edward P. Egan nominated Dr. Gilyard for meat and dairy inspector. Both nominations were approved unanimously.
 The board voted to adopt reso- lutions expressing regret at the death of Dr. Keeley. Copies will be sent to the family.

 Democracy Of 'P. R" !"
Proportional Representation Discussion of Interest to
 Waterburians Studying City Manager Plan

The voters of every community. city or town, in New England, will have special stake in the New England town meeting discussion, tonight, when the question "Is P. R. Democratic?" is taken up in old time Town Meeting style.
 Proportional representation has been practiced with increasing suc- cess in major cities of the United States, and the current wrangle over it's value to Boston, and indirectly to scores of New England cities and towns, to say nothing of to the states themselves, is matter striking at the very roots of our democratic Sys- tenn of government.
 New Legislation
 Thomas H. Mahony, chairman of the citizens committee for propor- tional representation in Boston, will speak for senate bill Number 374, now before the Massachusetts legis- lature, which is sponsored by sev- eral leading civic organizations, in- cluding the Massachusetts League of Women Voters and all the local leagues, the Boston Central Labor

INTEREST LACKING IN W. H. ELECTIONS
Town Manager Plan Is Blamed for General In=
 difference of Voters

Elimination of "politics" from the West Hartford town election by the town manager charter under which the community operates is being blamed for the extremely small turnout of voters in the town coun- cil election last week. Only 9 or B per cent of the eligible voters in the town cast their ballots in the elec- tion.
 Samuel K. Lavery, Republican leader, issued an outspoken state- ment blaming the town manager charter for the small vote. 'The new town charter insists that there be no politics." he said. without politics you have no organization, and without an organization you cannot get the vote"
 By Petition
 The West Hartford situation is ir1- teresting to Waterbury because the city manager charter proposed for this city by the Citizens Good Gov- ernment association would also vir- tually eliminate politics, at least insofar as campaigning by political parties is concerned. Under the pro- posed Waterbury charter. candid dates for councilmen or the board of education (the only elective posts provided for) are nominated by petition, not by any party cau- GUS or primary.
 According to MT. Lavery, inter- est on the part of the voters has decreased because of the new char ter. He defends the former set-up, in which the political parties were allowed to be active. Under the old set-up, he said, the people of the town had more interest in govern ment.
 Comment
 The Hartford Times, in an edi- torial 8 few days ago. criticized West Hartford's feeble election" and said that the small percentage of electors casting their ballots "of- fers a discouraging commentary on community alertness and civic in- tereSt." tsf+t
 Prior to the adoption of the new charter in West Hartford, party or ganizations there worked hard to get out the vote" as they do in other communities of the state where politics" in elections is not barred.

INSURANCE COSTS
 AGAIN LOWERED
Policies Amended to In= clude Several New Pros
 tective Features

A further lowering of insurance costs to the owners of private pass enger automobiles through the liberalization of policy coverage was announced from New York today by the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety underwriters. The new coverage, specially de- signed to meet the needs of private passenger car owners while operat- ing car other than their own, be- comes effective immediately in a majority of the states and will be made effective in the others as quickly as 1t can be submitted to and approved by the state irsur- ance authorities.
 Without additional premium charge, policies covering bodily in- jury or property damage, or both, are extended to include the follow ing protee ton for the named in- sured and his or her spouse:
 1. While either of them is oper- ating or riding in any other pri- vate passenger automobile not spe- officially excluded.
 2. While either of them is oper- ating or riding in a hired private passenger automibile, provided such hiring takes place only occasion ally.
 3. For their personal non-owner ship liability arising out of the operation of private passenger auto mobiles, as described in the endorse ment, by a chauffeur or domestic servant in their employ.
 The new coverage developed by the National Bureau of Casulty and Surety Underwriters, whose mem bership comprises 35 leading stock companies, gives broader coverage than the present so-called "lim- tied" form. Heretofore additional premium was charged for insurance coverage the operation or use of another private passenger automo- bi!e
