HOGAN UNANIMOUS
 CHOICE FOR D. A.
Native of Waterbury to Take Part in New York
 City Campaign

Frank W. Hogan, the Waterbur- ian who became executive assist ant to District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey of New York, was unopposed for the nomination to succeed his chief in the Republican primaries in New York today. He is unopposed also in the Democratic and Amer ican Labor party primaries and his election is assured.
 MT. Hogan, whose parents still live here, was given the Democratic designation by Tammany Hall lead- CTS in a major political stratagem. The Republicans had to follow suit, thereby taking the district attorney ship out of politics.
 The former local man plans to take no part in the campaign this fall. Mayor Fiorella LaGuardia, if successful in the primary today against John R. Davies. will oppose District Attorney William ODwyer of Brooklyn for the mayoralty.
