 Sen. Styles Bridges, R.. N. H.: T am delighted at the appointment. My only regret is that partisan politics probably will dictate the choice of Q Democratic successor in the senate.
 G. o. P. Record
 Burton's moderate RepublicaniSin is reflected in comparison with Taft. his better known Ohio colleague. A compilation of significant senate votes covering a period of four years-i04l-44-shows that Burton and Taft differed on 26 of 08 roll calls. Tn general, however, Burton was a qualified member of the anti RooSvelt opposition. Ho opposed sub- sides, baked at some efforts to in- crease cooperation taxes and uni- formly was in favor of freezing fed eral security pay roll taxation at existing levels.

 Nov. 6 Election
 With only about six weeks left before election day the statemen, was met with strong protest many openly declaring that the party had already waited too long.
 As reported here previously GOr leadership had made overtures tc at least two Waterbury men now officers in the armed services. Both of these men were openly mentioned as possible candidates, before con- sultation, 1t is said which resulted in criticism being brought down upon these leaders. The two men Ls,-Col. John Brodie and It. Col Joseph DiPietro both subsequently declined the offers.
 The present delay, as stated, may result in the many local GT's not re . ceiving ballots in time to vote. The names of party candidates must be printed and then submitted to the secretary of state following which they are returned here and the ball. lots forwarded to the CTS at their respective posts. The latter then must mail them back here.
 The local Democrats arranged such mailing weeks ago and have their absentee ballots, in general, already forwarded.
 Just what definite action will be forthcoming within the COP party soon was not actually determined today.
 It is possible it will all be within the party in hush-hush manner With little or no publicity. However some definite showdown is expected.

boys OF Wilmington is headed to-
wards great success, Walter Bess,
director of the John H. Shaw Boys
club, said yesterday.

about the act ons of the teen-age
group, some good, but mostly de-
trimental. 1t is through such or

hayward youths are returned to
the fold" Bess declared.

over 500 boys have registered and
the daily attendance has been con-

time giving them a sense of secur-

 MAN TELLS STORY

SEATTLE, Oct. 10 It took a bayonet and a tommygun in the hands of invading Japanese to re- move R. L. Coffield from Kiska in the Aleutians, but he still thinks that any way you leave Kiska "is good the former prisoner of war said today.
 He was one of 10 Navy men sta tioned at Kiska to send weather re- ports to Dutch Harbor, Coffield said. He had been there three months when the enemy arrived be- fore dawn June T, 1942.
 The guard S-2c w. l. Gaffney of Coquille, Ore, gave the alarm and i've took to the hills after destroy ing our code and smashing our ra- dio."
 Transferred from camp to camp as a prisoner, Coffield said he was hungry all the time" his weight dropping from 195 to l60 pounds. The first thing he did when he reached San Francisco was to "eat big steak dinner"
 Despite his experiences, the Seattle man said he would remain in the Navy if he could pass the physical examination when his leave is up.
