In value in the last decade. Where
this is true the farmer must make his
land produce just twice as much in

he does not do this he is getting poor

coNNEcrIcuT's AUTO LAW
 BEST IN TIE UNION
State Officials So Declare essors Leg
 islativs Hearing.

Hartford, March 7.-fhe present au- tomobile law was declared by many automobilists, including the secretary of state, Colonel Rogers. and Lieut. Governor Blakeslee. to be the best in any state in the union, this afternoon on roads, rivers and bridges.
 The automobilists were having their day in court resisting bills which seek to put speed limit requirement in the present law. The senate chamber was packed. The Changers were there also, pleading for more regulation of the machines out on the highways.
 Against Numbers on Headlights.
 There was opposition to tfle bill which would require automobile num- bers to be placed on headlights. Louis Elmer of Hartford termed 1t a freak bill. Large figures would obstruct the light and cast shadows, he said.
 Attorney King favored 8 bill which would give the secretary of state pow CT to appoint examiners of aplicants for licenses to operate machines. MT. Elmer opposed this. saying that few accidents occur when owners drive careful. It would be wrong to make it necessary for automobile owners who are not skilled in mechanics to hire an operator or else send his ma chine to "cold storage"
 Legislation Won't Give Drivers sense c. Marcy Robinson of New Haven said that no bill could be passed which would give driver sense. He knew a man that could do anything with an engine, but was absolutely unsafe on the road because he did not have a good head. He thought the appoint ment of examiners an attempt to give two or three men another "handout" from the state, like the barber com mission.
 The Don't Care Driver.
 Leonard H. Healy of the state grange condemned the actions of reck- less chauffeurs and uncaring owners, who, he said "are destroying the roads by speeding" He thought the don't care' driver should be dealt with. A speed limit. he thought, should be set, and suggested one not to exceed 25 miles an hour. F. N. Platt of Milford also thought a speed law should be set and thought as MT. Healy that 25 miles an hour would be satisfactory. eff you want to remove the prejudice against the automobile" said MT. Platt, fix 1t so that the joy rider can't do as he has been doing"
