The committee OF appropriations
gave hearing Friday afternoon III Hart
ford on the house bill entitled Con
corning Harbor and Shipping Terminal
at New Haven" There was a large at
tendance of interested New Haveners,
regardless of politics. 1t is estimated
that the cost for construction of pier
buildings and approaches would total
about 100000, half the sum TO be
paid by the state and the balance by
the city of New Haven.
The only opponent at the hearing
was George L. Fox of New Haven. He
claimed it was scheme to benefit the
few at the expense of the many; thai
the state was cajoled into sinking ST.
100000 at New London and that il
would be a. disgrace to do likewise al
