The subject of the appointment of
a deputy sheriff for the uptown soc-
lieu of Norwalk was not mentioned
at the meeting of‘ the Republican
Town committee held last night in
the Town Assembly hall building. 1
was generally understood that the
names of the ssvaral candidates for
tho vacancy which“ will exist when
Nelson W. Benedict. now supervisor
in the State Highway Department,
resigns as deputy sharia, would be
given consideration at the meeting.
The matur may. however. come at
the next meeting of the committee.
Following the business section.
Judge Frank Wilder. of Bridgeport.
a stats so tor. gave an interesting
talk on “T e Relation of the Town
Committoo to the State Central Com-
mittee." Judge Wilder was in a
humorous mood saying "that it gave
him great delight to leave such a
political peaceful city like Bridge-
port and visit .another political
peaceful city like Norwalk."
Another weaker was Charles is.
Wheeler. state representative, of
Bridgeport. Mr. Wheeler‘s subject
was "The Pollution of the Streams."
Mr. thclcr vividly brought out the
fact. that pollution of the walks of
Long Island’sound had caused the
loss of a $2,000,000 industry. He
said that he hoped to have a bill
adopted at the next session of the
legislature. which would prsvsul
manufacturing plants emptying
waste into streams and killing of!
trout and other fresh water fish.

willed otherwise. unstinted honors
would have been poured out to mark
the nation's mourning. Even as it is,

tle group of closest friends can find
standing room. There can be no
place for the plain folk who have no
other means of expressing their sor-
row and admiration than to stand
for ~long hours along the short
guarded way where the mom
train will pass. For them as well
as for himself President Coolidge
will go to the house with Mrs. Cool.
