CORP. COUNSEL
 HEALEY STARTS
Attorney Maurice Healey Was Sworn in Today to
 Succeed Lynch

Attorney Maurice T. Healey was today sworn in as corporation coun- sel by Mayor Vincent A. Scully, the ceremony taking place at the City Hall. MT. Healey, member of the law firm of Carmody, Larkin and Torrance, succeeds J. Gregory Lynch, who has entered the army.
 MT. Lynch resigned his $7,50O a year position in a telegram to the mayor Saturday. The resignation became effective after Mir. Lynch had been passed in his final exam ination before being commissioned as first lieutenant in the pro- vost marshal's department.
 The new corporation counsel is Democrat. but has never been prominently identified with politics. He is a member of one of the city's early Irish families.
 MT. Lynch had been corporation counsel since the start of Mayor Scully's first term in January, 1940. He has been a leader in the local Democratic organization and has served as a member of the Demo- cratic state central committee from the 18th district.
 Cornelius F. Maloney, secretary treasurer of the Dmocratic Town Committee, is slated to replace MT. Lynch on the state central com mittee. He will be named at the Democratic state convention in Hartford next week.

OPHARMONY' IN STATE HAS DISAPPEARED RevOIters Have Stirred Up Nasty Mess; Bradley Has
 Lost Control BALDWIN FAILED TO
 SOLIDIFY HIS PARTY Ex=Lieat. Gov. Wilson Is Hot After Baldwin for
 Nomination

Hopes of Republican lead CTS that the party's conven- tion at Hartford Thursday and Friday would be a har- monious love-feast were blasted today as the Bridge port Republican organization worked feverishly on plans to carry on a floor fight against State Chairman J. Kenneth Bradley and ex- Governor Raymond E. Bald win. The Park City group will back Ex Lieutenant Governor Clifford B. Wilson who in accepting support, attacked "self-serving and conniving groups"
 The revolt apparently has little chance of success, for the Bradley Baldwin group has the votes sewed up, but 1t may pave the way for a break that will upset the rest of the proposed ticket. It will bring the showdown that the anti-Brad- ley clements within the party have been seeking.
 Talbot Could Do It
 Observers believe that the leader ship might have been upset had Congressman Joseph E. Talbot of Naugatuck announced at an early date that he was candidate for the gubernatorial nomination. Instead, however, after months of indecision, MT. Talbot said recently that he

Japanese Forces Break Through Mountain Pass Near New Guinea
Are Now Advancing To- ward Fort Moresby, Only
 50 Miles Away
BY HAROLD GUARD Jnited Press Staff COrresnondent'

United Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 Somewhere in Australia, Sept. g. (UP)-Japanese forces have broken through the Owen Stanley moun- tain pass in New Guinea, and are advancing down the southern slopes toward Port Moresby, the great AL lied advance base on the south coast, less than 50 miles away, United Nations ofEc;al quarters reported today.
 Allied advance troops holding the narrow mountain gap have been en- veloped and are falling back on the main defense lines under the weight of persistent enemy attack in which it was believed, the largest Japanese forces so far engaged in New Guinea are operating.
 The most serious threat to date to Port Moresby, which is 375 miles from Cape York at the northeast tip of the Australian continent, was combined with the first enemy air attack on Port Moresby since Aug IT and the shelling of Australian troops in the Milne Bay area at the southeast end of New Guinea who had driven Japanese landing parties into the jungle.
 It was indicated that the bitter est ard most important fighting yet seen in New Guinea was in pros pect as the enemy advanced toward the Allied main defense lines on the south side of the Owen Stanley mountains.

JOSEPH DI PAOLA
 MAY BE NOMINEE
Chairman of State Barber Commission Mentioned
 for State Treasurer

Chairman Joseph DePaola of the state barber commission loomed to- day as a dark horse" candidate for the Democratic nomination for state treasurer. The ofilce is held by Dr. Frank Anastasio, New He- ven dentist who is in the army, and who desires renonination. However, objection to the "dual job" status of pr. Anastasio has developed strong ly and he may be dropped from the ticket when state Democrats con- vene at Hartford next week.
 Mfr. DePaola is president of the Connecticut Young Democratic Clubs. A resident of Meriden, he would have backing from that town and also from other parts of New Haven County, as well as from other sections of the state.
 New Haven Democrats undOubt- edly will seek to have one of their number given the nomination if pr Anastasio is dropped from the ticket. However, the quiet campaign on behalf of MT. DePaola has de- vel0ped strong support.
 The only other possible contest Is over the nomination for attorney general.
