State Health Board Tells How to Save Life from Drowning No elaborate equipment is need ed to save a life from drowning, 1 cording to an announcement {ro: the state board of health. All that is necessary is to know the “Prone Pressure Method” and act immediately. This method s simple to learn, easy to apply and ¥ill not unduly tax the strength of the rescuer if happens to o alone. On removal from the plucs patient stomach down on a flat sur- face, quickly opening the mouth to remove any foreign substance whicn might obstruct breathing — but not wasting any time in such prelimi- naries as every moment is preclous. One arm of patient shouid be hent the elbow letting the head rest on this, with face sidewise so that wa- ter may be dispelled from the lungs; the other arm should be stretch:1 full length above. Rescue measures should begin at once and continue rythmically un- til natural breathing is established— this may take four or more houis The procedure is as follows: First. Kneel, and straddle the pa- tient below the hips placing hands on small of the back with fingers over the lowest ribs, tips of fingers just out of sight Second. With arms straight, while counting one. two, swing for- ward, bearing weight on body firm- Iy but not violently. Third. Swing backwards while ccunting one, straightening up anl thus relieving pressure—this allows air to be drawn into the lungs. Fourth. Rest in this position for two counts. Fifth. Repeat these movements rythmically, forward and backward withont interruption, about twelve to fifteen a minute, until natural breathing is restored. Sixth. Meanwhile, if assistanc at hand, a physician should be sent for, patient’s tight clothing should be loosened at neck, chest or wais and paticnt should be kept warm Patient should not be moved fron this spot until he breathing normally and then should be car- ried in a lyinz position to a place where hie can be kept warm and re- ceive (xpert medical attention water at Two Boards Retreat Hastlly On Award of Contracts Within the past week New Brit- ain has seen iwo city commissions discover that their methods were not in keeping with the restrictions which hedge them about on the ex- penditure of money. The fire commission learned that it was unable to award a contract for repairs to a fire station because the cost was in excess of $300, the limit which any board may spend on a contract without the approval of the common council. The board of public works went blindly on its ¢ on the construction of the Pi- per Brook culvert apparently oblivi- ous to the fact that the common council had not passed on the pro- ject. As a result, both boards have been forced to reverse themselves and the contracts will be sent to the council for approval. ‘While few city commission are composed of profound business minds, it seems strange that these two boards should overlook the law which controls expenditures. Men who are experienced in the dis- charge of public office are members of both groups, making the situation caused by their mental lapse all the more to be wondered at. It has been assumed that the veriest tyro in the management of public affairs knows that nobody is free to expend more than $300 without first asking per- mission of that august and learned court of city fathers. The law has been on the books for some time and has frequently been the subject of discussion, making it informa- tion of public knowledge. ‘What Mayor Quigley thinks of the double faux pas has not been re- vealed. Probate Court and Congress | Promise Fall l’fl'lfllt'al Interest Facing the first contest for the probate court judgeship in more than a score of years, and with the possibility of two local aspirants for the honmor of representing the dis- trict in congress, New Britain may well look forward to a November | clection of much more than usual |interest. | Judge Bernard F. Gaffney has had uninterrupted occupancy of the pro- |bate judgeship for more than 20 years. He has been nominated by the democrats in each biennial elec- tion and indorsement by the repube Ilican party has followed. Approach- ing the age limit of 70 years, and anxious that there shall be no break |in the work of the court when he |reaches the maximum. Judge Gaff- Iney announced several months ago that he would step out when hs concludes the present term. Attorney General B. W. Alling was the first to be mentioned as probable nominee of the G. O. P. Judge Alling has served his party long. In 1924 he “carried the ban- ner” for the party in a run against Mayor A. M. Paonessa when it was generally known that no republican, could make a successful run with the deep split then in the party, and the popularity of Paonessa to be faced. Soon afterwards he was elect- jed to the house of representatives, }nnd after accepting the nomination |for senator withdrew to become the |legal adviser to the state. Senous illness may interfere with his pro- bate court plans, but since election |is eral months away it is possi- |ble that he may be in the race. | The only avowed candidate to date |is Prosecutor Joseph G. Woods. At- torney Woods has been an oficial of the court for more than 15 years and has had a creditable record as a prosecuting agent. but whether he will receive the support of those re publicans who are aligned with the G. 0. P. organization is a question. Several attempts have been made to give the prosecutor's job to another in recent years and in each attempt it has been apparent that the move, |if not directed by the so-called vi= ganization forces wae not, at least as far as outward indications are con- cerned, displeasing to some of tnat group. | Now Attorney Harry Ginsbw.g is being mentioned with considerabls favor in certain circles. Ginsburg occupies a most adtantageous strates gic position, being chairman of the republican town committee. Aside from the political advantage. he en- joys wide personal popularity, is an |ex-serviceman and has had probate court experience as a state officer of the American Legion in charge of guardianship work. Judge William F. Mangan is ree garded the best bet of the demo- cratic party. He has been successful in the practice of the law and was a judge of the city and police courts about 15 years ago. His abilities as a campaigner are well known ‘and it is believed that his entrance into the field as a contender would great- enliven the fall election. In the that he decides not to make the run. reports from democratic |circles indicate that the candidacy of Attorney William E. Hagearty would he agreeable to both the town committee group and to others in the party not closely aligned with the organization. Lawyer Hagearty, is a former vice chairman of the town committee. | Aside from the probate court judgeship, there is promise of inters est in the fall election from another standpoint—that of the congressional race. Former Mayor A. M. Paones: is being urged as the democratic nominee in this district, and reports of favorable reaction to mention of his candidacy are being received from other cities and towng in the fifth district. Mayor Quigley, though |a busy man today, may find time to make another run for the congres- sional chair for which he waged an unsuccessful campaign 12 years agos ly event On The Weathes i Observations i Washington, July —Forecast for Southern New England: Fair with moderate temperature Saturs day; Sunday fair and warmer.
