Norwich tonight private citizen,
branded as bride taker by his
former colleagues in the senate and
by his own act no longer a member
OF that BODY. Senator Conger, who
filed the charges against Aids, stay
ed here TO fight.
The battle that confronts Conger
Is no longer TO prove his charges.
To this extent the senate indicated
him today when 40 of its 40 members
voted that the charges had been sus-l
tanned by the evidence brought be-
fore them.

the senate today prepared TO resign
as soon as he received this vlndi-
cation. However. that may be. he did
not resign. and Developments make IL
likely that he will not do so.
The cause CT this is resolution in-
troduced by Senator Cobb. the major
ity leader, providing for the appoint
ment of committee To present to
the senate charges against Conger
growing out of hls connection with
lex islation and the use Of funds To
influence the members of the legis-
lature or other persons with refer
ence thereto
The Cobb resolution was referred
to- .ths judiciary committee.
Probe Must Go On.
II Is expected that the committee
will report It promptly to the senate.
There seems to be no longer any
doubt that the present legislature
will conduct general graft" iRves-
tigation.
With the Aids case out of the way
the question of thorough search into
the dark alleys of past legislative
history, lies unavoidably before the
Republican leaders.
Aids resignation absolutely closes
his case. All that the senate could
have done, after reviewing the
charges against him, would have
been TO put him out and such pun
ishment his own act forestalled.
While bribery Is a crime under the
statutes, the allegations against
