C0nnectIcut Among HeaLthiest States
Record for 1945 Places Community Among Nations Best; pr, Osborn Reviews Picture

ConnectIcut's health remained above average in iea5, declared Stanley II. osborn, MD, commits sioner, in the weekly Connecticut State Department of Health hroad- cast over station WTTC. No epi4 denies of any serious disease oc- cured during the year. There were no deaths from diphtheria reported and through Dec. lst, only one death had occurred from typhoid fever. Many statlsticians consider Connecticut one of the healtllest states in the country.
 The combined efforts of local and state health agencies helped 10 keep infant and maternal deaths at ai minimum during 1045. Cancer and heart disease remained the two leading causes of death in Con- necticut this year, indicating that more vigorous programs for the control of these diseases will be needed in the future. Connecticut's good health record could not have been attained without the help of health officers, physicians, dentists, nurses and other professional per- Sonnel located within It's bound aries, pr. Osborn continued.
 However, pr. Osborn stated that many small communities within Connecticut found it difficult to provide the various services need. ed to safeguard the health of their residents. He suggested that several towns band together into units of 5000 to 5000 persons. Pooling the funds available for health purposes would provide better public health service than if each town worked alone.
 Reviewing the health highspots of lo45, Dr. Osborn pointed to the inauguration of the use of fluorine to prevent tooth decay in children. The general assembly approved plans for a dental trailer which will bring service to areas where no den. list is available. When DOT was released for civilian use during the past year, health departments were ready with information on the proper methods of using the vari. ous preparations.
 Venereal disease control pros grams, industrial health plans. and sanitary engineering consultation services continued to protect Con. necticut's health in l045. Public health nursing associations throughout the state did a signifi- cant job of health supervision,

 obtained The efforts and success of these men, naturally were in- herited by the ones who now con- trol the Democratic administra- ton. This was surely proved by the slim majority obtained after the so-called city trouble of a few years back. The bulwark of the local party had been 30 well for- tifled by these men of the past that simple nomination by the Democrats carried with 1t sure election. Anyone acquainted with political history must admit that such is the fact. One must know politics to bc a winner, and one must play the game to be sue cesSful. That was the Thoms the- ory of years ago, and every mem Der of the Democratic town conn mittee had to keep this in mind every minute, else resign. With Thoms, Democrats came first. Whether Mayor or not; what he had to say generally prevailed. He was consulted on everything. How things have changed since his day.
 We were among those who at tended the Slavin funeral. We were there because we are Dem- ocrats, and have never varied from voting that ticket, no matter what. No Democrat brought up under the old leadership could ever desert the party, whether aggrieved or not. That however was before the Carpet -Bagger of- flcial. Among those we saw at the funeral were the Mayor and his secretary. It was just and proper that they should be there and we were proud to see them, They were there as Officials and also as Democrats. But we looked around in vain for some repre- sentative of the Democratic town committee, we mean the officers We excuse the chairman, because he is not a paid officer, and be- sides pressing personal business would not permit of his presence. Still, there were other officers of the committee who should have been present. They had the time and out of respect for what Mike Slavin had done for the party, we think 1t would have looked well to have them among the delegation. John Howard of the probate court was on hand as a town committeeman, and also as an Out Easter. And how happy and pleased we were to note the presence of the Rev. John Nc Grath of Thcmaston within the chancel rail. Father McGrath never forgets an Out Easter; he was originally an altar boy of the church of the Sacred Heart, and knows all the names of the older families out our way.
 Mike Slavin was vitally inter- ested in sports of all kind; he never missed an boxing exhibition until his health failed. A student of all forms of sport, he was an expert in lmparting information on this or that type of fighter, base ball averages, and football scores. Our memory is he used to catch Jimmy Burns, considered at the time one of the best anna teur pitchers of the east end Mike seldom ever had a passed ball, and even wild pitches were corraled by him before they roIl- ed out of bounds. His quickness in the removal of his mask and the direct aim of his ball and Its fastness nipped almost every runner who attempted second on him. In company, he was the life of the party. Friendly, good na. tured. happy, and cordial, Mike generally brought up things that produced a laugh or two from

those present. He loved old friends, old out casters, fellows, he played ball with, and mingled with in his early days. His laugh was hearty, and full, denoting the goodness of his mind, and the blgness of his heart We were among his close friends, and we felt pleased and enjoyed every minute of our conversation. Ser ious in time of election. he rcog- niezd fully the duties of the of- flee he held, and labored into late hours in the interests of the par ty he represented. Reliable and accurate in his calculations, he was a power of strength to those charged with holding the party together.
