Denounces Republicans Muaintaining that the present re- ullbllv.‘ul\ campaign was the most “infainous campaign cver conducted by the republicans,” Herman P. Kopplemann of ' Hartford, demo- cratic nomince for congressman trom the first congressional district, neverely scored the republicans at a democratic rally held last evening at the American Legion hall in Ken- sington under the auspices of the 8mith-Robinson Woman's club. Attacking “Coolidge” prosperity, Mr. Kopplemann claimed that when the republican administration went to Washington seven years ago, the | tiles at the Hartford) County Manu- tacturing association’ showed 60,000 working fom these industrics while | today there are but 53,000, During the Wilson administration, the speaker said, Herbert Hoover was appointed to make a survey of | unemployment conditions in New York and he reported that between 12,750,000 and 3,000,000 out of work. The labor department figure of 4,- 000,000 now out of work in New York was used by Mr. Kopplemann (as further argument to break down ! the claim of prosperity under the republicans and he claimed that no democratic administration hud ever been marked by panic. He urged the democrats to pledge themsclves to Alfred E. Smith and the rest of the democratic ticket. He also discussed voters' committees and the various phases of their operations. He was very forceful in marks concerning the tions and br republican his re- tariit ques- nded members of the party as “liars” in en. deavoring 1o “bunco” the public with an alleged issue which he termed the “question of tarifr.” Lawyer John Burke of East Hart- ford, a prominent worker in the democratic party. also spoke at | length on the platforms of the two parties und stated that the women would play « very important part in the coming elections. He urged the vomen to get out and vote in full force. Both yer Burke after their were roundly applauded addresses, both men foreefal d int - ing in their statements. A large crowd was pres (e rally. Mrs. Newark of Hartford, who played an important part in the or- ganization of the local club, gave & short address to the women in at- tendance at the rally.

Democrats Not Likely to Endorse CAUCUS ~ BALLOT CLOSE Conlon to Replace Mills—Many Trials Tonight—Selectman Op- poses Removal of Gates—Traflic Officer for Rlossom’s Corner- A real contest for the right to represent Plainville in the general assembly developed last night when the republicans renominated Rob- ert B. White after a close caucus ballot against Ole W. Robertson, and the democrats let it be known that they-expected to nominate a opposi- tion candidate and would not en- dorse the republican nominee as they did in 1926. The battle between White and Robertson last night, as had been predicted, was friendly but sharp, the present assemblyman receiving a majority of only 24 votes in a to- tal of 224. The court room of the town hall was jammed with these 224 republican electors, nearly a third of whom were women, and an overfiow crowd filled the outer cor- ridor. Chairman Ralph the republican 1. Seymour of town committee to order and Stanley 8. Gwillim was elected chairman of the meeting. Attired in full dress for another engagement, Mr. Gwillim took the platform, and Mr. S8eymour was named clerk. Frank T. Wheeler nominated Meritt O. Ryder, the present judge, for another terms as judge of pro- bate, and there was no opposition. Frederick Bullen and M. O. Ryder were renominated for further terms as justices of the peace, the former being placed in the field by Ole W. Robertson and the latter by Attor- ney Charles 1. Conlon. Attorney Conlon, on nomination of Second Selectman Willlam Downham, was named to complete the republican justice ticket and, if elected, will take the placé vacated by L. 8. Mills. There was no opposition to any of these choices, and the cau- cus proceeded 1o the main business of the evening. John Lamb placed Mr. in nomination, calling him who has been our representative in the last a mbly and served the town with justice to himsclf and 1o the town." Mr. Lamb said Mr. White had had experience which would stand him well and that Mr. White's bill regarding town line streets had allowed Plainville to col- leet, from 1 tol, about $1,000 which it could not have secured oth- erwise in the settlement of the For- st street question. “He also framed a bill for a town court,” Mr. Lamb continuer, “a thing which is bound to come in the near future, but for some reason this bill was killed, Charles H. Newton, who nominat- ed Mr. Robertson, was even bricfet saying that all present knew his cun- didate and that he could say noth- ing to add to or detract from the reputation of his choice. On suggestion of the chairman and motion of Mr. Newton an in- formal ballot wos taken, with Chas, Stocking, William Downham, Allen M. Raymond, and A. A. Macleod as tellers. A mild sensation was creat- ed when Mr. Gwillim warned the tellers to see that the ballot +was properly taken, Mr. White received 124 votes to Mr. Robertson's 100, and the defeat- ed candidate immediately showed his good sportsmanship by moving that the ballot be m formal and unanimous. This was done. Mr. Gwillm said that the large turnout augured well for the chanc of the republican party next month. Mr. Seymour asked for a word and id that he hoped at least 600 of the 711 persons seeking to be made voters would carry out their inten- tions. A house-to-house cenvass ha already been made to secure the names, and it is the intention of the town committee to make further | personal solicitations if nccessary. White |cars. | He also urged early voting on elec- tion day and asked for contribu- tions. The town committee was empowered to fill any wvacancies which might occur in the ticket, and the meeting was adjourned. Expect to Oppose White The democratic party, which -en- dorsed Mr. White after his nomina- tion by the republicans two years ago, will probabily be less meek this year, it was learned after the cau- cus. When asked last night if his party expected to put a candidate in the field, William J. Foran, chair- man of the democratic tewn cem- mittee, said that he could not speak officially but that it was his personal opinien that the democrats would have a man in the running. The party's caucus will be held at §:00 o'clock tomorrow night in the town hall. Trials Tonight The trials of the score of motor- ists who were arrested Monday night by the state police during their drive against defective auto lighting will be held in the town hall at 7:30 o'clock tonight. The names of those arrested have not been revealed by Grand Juror William J. Foran who wishes them withheld from publi- cation until after the hearings. te Removal Opposition to the removal of the gates from the West Main street railroad crossing and of the crossing tenders from that crossing and the one at Broad street was voiced yes- terday morning at a hearing held before the public utilities commis- sion in the state capitol at Hartford. Southington also raised objections to similar action in that town, and the commission reserved decision. The railroad has petitioned for permission to remove the gates and gate tenders, as there is only one local freight a day going each way over this “Canal Line,” It wishes to install electric flash signals and has promised to stop all trains and have them flagged over by trainmen, Mr. Simpson objected to the flash signats and hoped that some plan could be worked out for the reten- tion of the gates at West Main street. 1t is thought it may be pos- sible for a member of the train crew to let these down and also to act as temporary guard at the Broad street crossing. Representatives of the Southington | school committee and Exchangoe club ohjected vigorously to the plan, saying it would endanger children who must cross the tracks. The Plainville Chamber of Com- merce recently discussed the plan and declded not to oppose it. New Traflic Officer Constable Bare J. Wadsworth, newest member of Plainville's force, has been assigned to traffic duty by | the selectmen and will direct traffic at Blossom's corner during the hours | when children are on their way to or from school. T'he school commit- tee recently asked for such protec- tion, as the plun has worked well at Broad and Whiting streets, where Traffic Officer David Kaufl- man has been on duty for two years. Stench From Sewer Complaints regarding the stench | cmanating from the catch basins in | the center were made again today. The basin in front of the Castle | storce was the worst offender. These basins accumulate waste material yuite rapidly and frequent cleanings | cacher Reception The reception to the Plainville teachers held at the High school last evening was a bright spot on the calendar of the Parent-Teacher as- sociation, About 75 parents and friends were present. The prize pic- ture was awarded for the month to Grade VI of the Linden street taught by the principal of hool, Frederick Richards. Iorty-one and four-tenths per cent of the purents of that room were present.

In anticipation of the reopening of the old high school for high school clusses, it fs expected that the board of education will include in its next year's budget an appro- priation large enough to place building in proper condition. At the present time two rooms in the Sum- mer street structure are being used for a health school and during the past few years minor repairs have been made so that a portion of the | building is in good condition. Within ten years, it is pointed out, it will probably be found necessary to build an addition to the new high school to accommodate pupils grad- uating from the various school dis- tricts, Medical Inspection Report The report of the medical in- spection department of Silverio was only one und Bogino well up.
