 Next Thursday will sec large at- tendance at the. hearing to be given at the state capitol by the committee on roads, rivers and bridges on the McNeill bill, introduced by Archie McNeill senator from Bridgeport, which seeks to repeal the s1.00o, 900 appropriated at the last session of the legislature for the development of New London harbor as 8 terminal for steamships thus giving to the state port of importance that would be of general benefit to the whole state. While McNeill and the Bridgeport gang" may frame up some good sounding arguments in favor of the repeal bill, the people of the whole state know that the real cause is of a personal and purely political nature This important measure was not rail roaded though the 1911 session of the general assembly, but was adopted after long and careful investigation by the members.

When the bill making the appro- priation was finally adopted, a com mission was appointed to make farth- CT investiga ton and not to make any expenditure until they were thorough 1y satisfied that it would be a wise and
 judicious expenditure. Governor Baldwin is chairman of that com mission which was also directed to deliberated for more than a year, wis ited and examined the conditions at New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Providence, interviewed experts and finally decided that it was wise to ex- pend the appropriation and the pre- liminary work was finally commenced and is now in progress under the direction of the commission Under the conditions it is believed that the committee will report unfavorably on the act to repeal and it is believed that the members of the assembly will in any event. vote against the repeal Connecticut is only doing what Mass achusetts is doing for Boston Rhode Island for Providence, only ones on not such large scale.

 It is new though for a civil suit brought under the gambling law, but such one has been started in New London for a first time. It seems from the complaint filed that F. R.

NEW LONDON NEEDS MORE HOUSES
Recommendation of Committee After investigation Good Attendance Has Favored Night School Mayor Mahan's Plan for Cheap and Good Ice IF Many Will Attend Hsrbor Bill Hearing ng-Suit For Gambling Loss.

Mayer Mahan's latest is fer the city to DO into the ice business like unto that before water is frozen, only that the ice should be sold to the people at cost while the water brings in big profit. The mayor proposes amend ment to the city charter giving the city the authority to purchase ice cutting machines erect ice houses and harvest ice on Lake Konomoc and available ponds. Getting the ice from the source of the regular water supply is guarantee Of it's purity and if the mayors plan becomes operative the people can get ice at a low price and many poor people who have no ice at all in the warm summer time, except the small pieces that are picked up as they fall from the ice carts, will share the cool comforts with those who are richer and weigh more in the social scale. Whatever the mayor under takes he usually accomplishes and his ce-furnishing scheme may not be an exception.
