Unit Rule Favoring
 Cross Will Be Fought

and I, believe, illegal" said the for mer "As a delegate to the con- vention, want to cast my vote for Bob Hurley and I think others feel the same way. From my study of state and local party rules, I see no conclusion but that the unit rule adopted in May is not bind ing now. If there's an attempt made to put it into effect for the Waterbury delegation at New Haven, I'm ready to go to the floor to fight against its legality. If it's necessary, some of the delegates will walk out rather than be regis tered against Hurley"
 Has Much Influence
 Though he has made no attmept at political activity since he re- signed as town chairman, MT. Mul- vile still yields considerable in- fluence. His resignation, in April came after political differences witt Mayor Scully and MT. Smith. Fig. uring largely in the disagreement was the appointment by the mayo of a Republican, Herbert Scott Smith, as superintendent of streets MT. Mulville objected strenuousl to this appointment, claiming tha qualified Democrats were being ig nored.
 Nothing Much Done
 The caucus last night turned int a game of political checkers, wit nothing being done. With many o the delegates absent. Mayor Scull and MT. Smith were apparently un willing to subject the Cross senti ment to test, since it would giv MT. Mulville a chance to speak fo support of Hurley. MT. Mulville likewise, kept mum, not wishing t show his hand as long as no at tempt at a Cross endorsement wa being made. So the delegates spen about five minutes discussing hote room arrangements with the tow committee secretary, Neil Maloney and the meeting was then ad journed.
 A minute later, Mir. Mulville aske tEe mayor to reopen the caucus After discussion with the mayo and MT. Smith, he withdrew his re quest. deciding to withhold his fir until caucus is held at NeN Haven.
 There seems no doubt that tn Scully- Smith group will be able | control a majority of the delegate: but should MT. Mulville be able t break down the unit rule, some c Waterbury's votes, perhaps ss man as 15, will go to Hurley.

Baby Fingers! F e m al e of Species, More Curious About Testing Washing
 M a . h i e
 Wringers.

Baby girls are "copy-cats' when it comes to sticking their fingers into washing machine wringers!
 Probably going about mans business" elsewhere, baby brother gets into enough scrapes, but it's little sister and mama who roll up the home laundry accident tolls.
 This conclusion comes from study of National Safety Coun- cil analysis of 56 accident cases involving the wringer on electric washing machines which were treated at Chicago's Cook County hospital
 While it is true that Cook County hospital takes care of only those persons. in the lowest in- come groups, the report says that it is in these groups that the fam fly washing is most commonly done at home.
 Among the 56 injured by wrin 'ers, there were IS cases of babies of less than four years of age. fourteen of these were girls There also were 18 cases from 25 to GA years of age. Seventeen of these were women. Next highest was the to 14-year group with '14 cases, of which 10 surprisingly were boys.
 In a summary of 32 child cases up to 12 years. of which g were under 6 years, it was said that in 25 cases the child evidently want ed to find out what would happen if it put its fingers in the wringer. In three cases the child actually was helping mama, in one the child's clothing caught in a wrin- ger, in one a child tripped and fell. in two the fingers got in the wringer accidentally"
 Tn 19 cases mama or papa was present. In B cases the child was alone, usually while mama hung up the clothes in the yard.
