Lawlor Acclaimed As
 Great Party Leader
Former Commissioner James A. PheIan Pays Tribute
 in Endorsing Ex=SenatOrs Candidacy

has always been true Democrat"
 My support of Senator Lawlor," !" said MT. Phelan, 'is not to be con- strued as any attempt to oppose the administration. have great regard for Mayor Scully and what he has accomplished since taking office. But the fact that he has chosen to re- main neutral in the 18th district contest speaks for itself"
 Important Factor
 The backing of MT. Phelan is considered by observers to be one of the most important factors in Senator Lawlor's candidadcy. High ly respected as a business man and as civic figure in the Lions club and other organizations, he has been leading Democrat for many years. He was a political sponsor of the city's present mayor, Vim cent A. Scully, and close associate of the latter'S father, the late May or Martin Scully.
 "On the basis of experience, Sen- ator Lawlor should be the nominee for state senator, MT. Phelan stat ed. "The legislation that he has fought for the bills benefiting us all that he has done so much to pass make it clear that his return to Hartford would mean continuance of his fight for the rights of the common people. Personally, I regard no one more highly than I do Senator Lawlor, and it is my sincere belief that he should be and will be nominated"
 Senator Lawlor, in a statement this morning, expressed gratifica- ton at MT. Phelan's tribute. T cannot help but feel very proud that MT. Phelan has seen fit to speak so highly of my candidacy. On my part, there is the greatest admira- tion for him as friend and an executive; nothing that happens in this campaign can afford me any greater pleasure than MT. Phelan's support and kind words. My cam- paign will be continued as it has been, without any personalities and

Father, Mother, Son
 Injured In Accident
 Returning From Trip
Wife Sues Administrator of Husbands Estate Alleging i Carelessness on His Part-SOn May Play Wit-
 Is ness Role in Litigation for Mother

Albert Des Coteaux, and seriously injured his mother, Leondina Des Coteaux.
 Mrs. Des Coteaux today brought suit for $25,OOO against the admin istrator of her husbands estate, Elzear Des Coteaux. She claims that her husband caused the accident by reckless driving.
 Newspaper reports of the accident stated that Des Coteaux, returning to Waterbury after Labor Day va cation, was blinded by lightning in a storm and his car crashed against bride. He died Sept. 13, eight days after the accident.
 The civil suit, on the other hand, alleges that Des Coteaux, driving recklessly, made sudden swerve which threw the car against the bridge. The accident occurred in Berthier, Quebech.
 Mrs. Des Coteaux says that be- cause of her husbands reckless driv- ing she suffered permanent injuries which will incapacitate her for the rest of her life. She charges that her husband was wholly responsible for the crash.
 The son, Arthur, was passenger in the car and suffered foot in- jury, according to reports at that time.
 Elzear Des Coteaux was officially appointed administrator of the estate and the action is brought against him. The suit was filed by Attorney Michael Ciano.

 MT. Phelan, who is treasurer of the Sixteenth District Democratic association, told the large crowd: q can't speak too highly of Joe Law Tor. I served with him for Is years on the board of public works; know the legislation he fought for at Hartford; know his qualities of personality and character that have made him so popular in every part of the city. The Democrats of the 18th district could make no better choice than to nominate him for his eighth term at Hartford"
 True Liberal
 'The achievements of Senator Lawlor as a member of the State Senate through seven terms should be so well known that I need not cite them," MT. Phelan stated. "He worked necessarily for legislation that would benefit not only his dis trict, and his city, but would benefit the average man and woman all over Connecticut.
