STAMFORD, Conn.. Oct.
Charles H. Martin. candidate for
First St'lt".‘illltln on the.
flicker. and all the other G. 0. I‘.
lczizitiidates \verc swept into office
5 yesterday in the bi—ennial Town
Election. Their margin was about
2.400 votes and from the moment
the voting machines were opened
and the results by wards began to
be, known there “as no doubt as to
“hat the result. would be. in fact,
ins the afternoon of election day drew
Howard the hour of 6 o'clock. when
the polls were to close. it was evi~
dent. that the Republicans had been
again returned to office.

The outstanding feature of the

tiection w.is the out that was given
.1-‘irst. St-lccmian Charles H. Martin.
{\Vliile the other candidates ran to-
gether in practically every instance.
the candidate for rc-(‘loclion as First
Selectman. was 493 votes behind his
teammates. Town Clerk George R.
Close ran ahead of his ticket by a.
generous margin and Samuel “'ag-
’ner. Democratic candidate for Col—
lector of Tax-3s, ran ahead of his
ticket's average by 100 votes, while
Dr. John J. Cloonan. Democratic
candidate :‘or the School Committee.
was given a. vote that was consider-
3 ably above that of some of the other
5 members on that ticket.
' A light. vote was cast on the pro-
! posed amendment to, the State Con-
stitution. In some of the machines
there were no "no" votes balloted
and in all of them the voters seemed
to pass up the opportunity to vote on
it. The total vote in the six wards
was Yes SSS. No 25.

The proposed amendment would
give the Governor the right to vote
separate items in approbriation bills.
an entire
bill must be vetoed it the Governor
does not: approve of a. certain item.
This has caused much trouble in the
General Assembly and an effort is
being made to remedy conditions so
L35 to make the veto power possible
on separate appropriation items.

The second ward stood by the
Democratic party yesterday. the only
ward w tail was not; carried by the
Republicans. This is usually regard-
ed as Democratic and no surprise
was expresed when the result was
known.

Two’ women were elected to the
School Committee yesterday. Mildred
\V. Young. present Secretary of the
Board. and Dorothy W'. Skene. The
latter was cut to some extent in her
Elizabeth A. Coughlin.
candidate on the Democratic ticket.
ran along with the other candidates
under the Democratic banner.
