 State convention in accordance with the custom of prior years. If ma jority of the 46 delegates favors Bowles at Friday nights caucus, it is expected that Mayor John s. Monagan, who is scheduled to be elected chairman of the delegation, will be instructed to cast the Water bury votes next Tuesday for the Es- sex Democrat.
 Bowles formally announced his candidacy for the gubernatorial nomination yesterday and is now be- lieved to have received the "go- ahead" sign from such party leaders as U. s. Senator Brien McMahon and State Chairman John McGuire of Wallingford.
 Two years ago the Waterbury del- egation pledged itself to Att. Leo Gaffney of New Britain, who was the losing candidate. While Lt.-Gov. Wilbert Snow, still an avowed can- didate for the governorship, remains popular with local Democrats, there is a growing belief that the Bowles candidacy would prove stronger and that the former Federal official would make a more intense cam- paign. This belief has been strength ened, too, in the Naugatuck Valley, since the Republicans gave the old "heave-ho" to Congres nan Joseph E. Talbot of Naugatuck at their Hartford convention yesterday.
 Democratic feelings in Waterbury and throughout the entire valley changed completely yesterday with the announcement of the Talbot withdrawal. That the COP. move in busting Talbot has had a psy- chological effect on Democrats and Democratic organizations in this section of the State goes without saying. It will cost the Republicans votes, according to the claims of leaders on both sides, and Demo- crats are hopeful that they will gain thereby.
 At Friday nights caucus in this city delegates will split up into rep resentatives of the 18th and 18th Senatorial Districts, with the Stae Cenral Committeeman of each one presiding at the meeting at which honorary officers and nominees for the committee are selected. Follow ing these two sessions, a meeting of the entire delegation will take place with selection of the delegation discussion of candidates, and endorsement, if present plans are carried out.

Robbit Meat on Sale InWoterburV
 igs' Feet Chief
 Speciality in
 Several Markets

There were pigs tails, pigs feet and pigs ears on sale in Waterbury meat markets today, but there was no pork
 Are they cutting of the ears and tails and letting the pigs grow some more," queried one disillu- stoned housewife in a downtown store.
 There was ground lamb, but no beef. There was plenty of tongue, and talk. And one store put out rabbits meat.
 Feet, Tail or Ears
 Pigs feet sold at nine cents a pound. Tails and ears were marked 16 cents. But the popularity was also low.
 The O.P.A. evidently hadn't an- ticipated such sad state of affairs. Its price ceiling charts do not list pigs ears.
 Retailers said restaurants were getting the bulk of the available stock. Restaurateurs said somebody was kidding. They were beginning to plan meatless meals.
 The O.P.A. was reported ready to send agents out to investigate price violations. But there was little on which to make violations. Whole salers said even black marketers had no business to do.
 Vanishing Supply
 At an early hour this morning, one large local store had some lamb chops, lamb stew, two legs of lamb, one lamb roast, and some ground lamb. But the supply was gone before customers could finish circling the counters.
 Another had only the pigs meat (not pork), some liver, bacon, and sandwich meat.
 Prices of cold cuts were markedly under those in force before Tues day. One store sold cold cuts Mon day at prices ranging from 49 to 7o cents a pound. Today the prices there started at 34 cents, and the maximum was 55.
 All available lamb today was posted as Grade AZ, and prices were on the dot with the maximums provided by the OP.A.
 Rabbit Not Popular
 Cut-up rabbit meat was placed in individual trays, with the price varying from SIPS to $l.79. Few buyers were noted.
 While housewives continued thelr futile searches for meat, whole salers said they could offer little encouragement that the situation would change in the next few weeks. They continued their predictions that the most severe shortage o1 meat in the city would hit very shortly.

Carroll

 material choice of Democratic Party leaders, the fact that Bowles may be contested to some degree by It. Gov Wilbert Snow has led to the consideration of Carroll as a man to be served up to party delegates and State voters as a suitable com- promise.
 The three-time former city treas urer of Torrington has received high praise for his conduct of the State office since election in 1914 His annual handling of the 123 mil lion State funds, with considerable profit to the State, has secured the 44-year-old Torrington man a well founded reputation.
 It is believed also by his support CTS that he would be favorable to all groups, a quality not held by Bowles as much as by Snow. It is also reported he is viewed favora- ble by Party Chief Sen. Brien Mo- Mahon despite the fact that Car roll was on the Smith-Maloney fac- tion slate in the 1914 convention that resulted in party split and McMahon's defeat of this group.
 Bill Carroll would be the logical candidate to take advantage of the gains to be secured as result of the Republican Partys treatment of Joe Talbot, the State Treasurer's supporters said today. If We must talk in terms of a balanced ticket then let us talk of Bill Carroll as governor and Snow, or Bowles or Atty. Joseph P. Dodd as U. s. Sen ator."
 Asked if they would consider Car roll for U. s. Senator these sup porters said such a consideration was not without possibility.
 Senator McMahon could not be contacted today for comment. Oth- CT party leaders, who wished to be noted the Carroll flor Governor suggestion as "an inter- eStinQ deVelonmeOt

Scouts Plan PoperDrive Sunday
 Public Requested
 To Cooperate By
 Leaving Bundles

Troop Boy Scouts, affiliated with Washington Park Community Club are sponsoring Scrap Paper Drive on Sunday, Sept. 2oth, from 10 A. M. until 1 o'clock, The mem bers of the Scout Troop Commit tee will work with the scouts in col- lecting the paper, and are asking people who have been saving paper to have 1t outside their homes be- fore 10 o'clock on Sunday morning.
 The many friends of John B. Cuddy will be glad to know he has been appointed Scout Commission CT for the South District from Mat tatuck Council of Boy Scouts of America. MT. Cuddy has been an ardent and conscientious worker for the scouts for number of years, and deserves this promotion.
 It has been noted with great in terest, the number of well known people of Washington Hill who at tended the Republican Convention in Hartford on Monday night. It shows that Rep. Joseph E. Talbot's work among the people of Wash ington Hill, regardless of their po- litical affiliations, recognized his fine qualities and would no doubt, have backed him up in his run for the gubernatorial job, if his party saw fit to give it to him. Of course, it's an Ill wind that blows no- body good-and without a doubt, the Democrats of Waterbury, will make better showing this year in the number of Democratic votes that will be cast for governor.
 Personals
 MT. and Mrs. Truman Cheney of Plainville, Conn.,, were weekend visitors at the home of MT. and Mrs. John B. Cuddy of Madison Street.
 Miss Mary Huston of Irvington- on-the- N. Y, has returned home after spending a few days visiting with her cousin, Mrs. F. A. McGrath of Sylvan Avenue.
