Norwich bulletin., 1913-01-24

1 some of the democratic senators who are opposing MT Caldwell wish to have l the commission form of highway ad- l fnanistratfon under consideration as a | means to secure delay on having MT. Cadwells name reported back to the senate after Sit is sent in should it come in for confirmation. Big Volume of Business Expected. The appointment of clerk of bills will probably go to William Blodgett of Winsted. who was senate clerk last ses- sion and is a republican, while the democrats will name someone for en- crossing clerk, carrying out the under standing which was part of that which led to thB republicans according to the democrats an equal division of the committees.
 The senate passed a resolution for closing the introducing of business on Feb. A. but the house did not receive this. House members are believed to raVor- & nearer date so that commit tees can get to work. Everyone is looking for a greater volume of busi- ness than ever before The progres- slve members have something like 80 bills ready to go in which have been prepared under suggestions of the new legislative committee of the party ap- pointed under it's party rules.
 New Armories Wanted.
 New Haven, Waterbury, Hartford and Branford are already asking for appropriations for armories, and the number of bills affecting New Haven already indicates that that city will demand much attention of the several committees. A repeal of the present law governing the manufacture of electricity is proposed, it is understood, in the direction of municipal owner ship of such plants which it is claimed was prevented by the 1909 statute
