M. Griswold and Wm. Schroeder Seek Re-election DEMOCRATS NOT YET ACTIVE Woman Says Her Fellow Women WAl -y V:flo—ulflnn-odn Wedding—Gut- ter Discussion Continues—Berlin Priefs—Other News Items. Folitical activities in Berlin started today when Dr. Roger M. Griswold #nd Willlam Schroeder, selectmen at the present time, nounced that they are candidates t® succeed themselves W office for another year. The official Mnnouncement of their candidacy is ® long and lengthy one and contains & digest of reasons why the men should be re-elected. The men set forth the local conditions existing when they entered the office and com- pared them with the present condi- Slops to show what they have ac- complished. Dr. Griswold and Mr, Bchraoeder have held ofMce for the past year and republicans are reported as satisfied with their regime. Richard Deming was of the opnion that the republcan caucus will be held here on September 10. At that time the eandidacy of Dr. Griswold and Mr. Schiroeder will either be endorsed or r men will be chosen to heead a “dicket. There have been several candi- dates mentioned as desiring the place of selectman but none of them have made a formal declaration of their iutentions, It is known that there is opposition to the present incumbents but whether the attack will be strong enough to oust them at the caucus and present a new ticket is now con- sidered doubtful. Prominent republi- £&ns would rather waity and watch eaucus developments thay make a statement as to their standing at the present time. There are many people in the town who are desirous of having two men in ofMce whon it Is impossible to elect They are W. W. Jagan and Amos Bar- rett, postmasters respectively of Ken- sington and Berlin. These two men are considered capablo leaders, but the fact that they hold govern- ment positions makes it impossible tor them to be censidered as candidates Mr. Fagan s consideré® by many as Berlin's strongest demécratic worker at the present time, while the war Jsecord of Postmaster Barrett has created a desire to do him honor The Republicans are watching fwith wary eve, for tho first sign from Democratic quarters No ecandidatoe for selectman has yet been heard of It was stated this morning that it yery probable an effort will be made 6 have George Sulllvan accept the nomination from the Democrats. Mr Sullivan is well known here where he bas been with the Barlin Construction mpany & lang time. Mr. Fagan, gocratic town chairman, is in New and could not be located this sceking possible candi- Inent Republican asked Dr. Sullivan would cratis’ choice. He made no reply except to say he knew his capabilities. His silence, and that of others who heard the question, would lead to the belief that Mr. Sul- livan might turn the tables in the stald old town and romp home with a victory. The women are going to vote this fall and several local politicians think that an evolution will take place weherby the men will vote for the bet- ter candidute rather than because of | the fact that he is listed on a po- Ntical ticket. That “the women will vote"” was stated by a Kensington | woman who was asked about it. “We | didn’t all want to vote,” she said “but ‘nnw that it is here. we will. I have alwidys been an anti-suffragette. Now the women have the vote and it will become the custom for them all to go and cast their vote.” She thought a large percentage of local women would vote at every opportunity. Returning to Teach. Walter Peck of this town will re- turn to Worcester, Mass., in the near future to resume teaching. He is a graduate of Worcester Polytechnic in- stitute, class of 1917. After receiv- ing his diploma the faculty offered him a position as instructor of mathe- matics. While in Berlin he has been general foreman for the-:Lane Construction company. He supervised the installa- tion of the new drainage system at the railroad bridge recently com- pleted. Marino—Occhi. « Ricco Marino and Miss Guide Oc- chi, both of this town, were granted a marriage license this morning at | the office of the New Britain town clerk Because of the fact that both are considered non-residents in New Britain, it was neces for them to give five days' notice, required by law, before the paper® could be is- sued Mr. Marino is 23 years of age and is employed as an automobile repairman The bride-to-be is 20 years old Discussion Over Gutter. The article appearing in The Her- ald last evening concerning the at- titude ~f the state department in the matter of fixing the gutter near the Hubbard property was being discussed by local residents this morning. The discussion is interesting people be- cause the gutter in question is a very deep and dangerous one for auto- ists and several accidents due to its steepness have been reported The erown of the road at tha* point is very high, perhaps as much as four feet diffefence existing between its sur- face and that of the gutter. It is to have this existing danger eliminat- ed that the selectmen have taken ac- tion and will start work on raising the gutter to a normal height. Berlin Briefs, Victor records for September.
