Speaking before the Torrington Rotary Club, at its January meeting at Conley Inn, John M Wadhams, chairman of the state board of finance, said that the various departments and institutions ot the state were asking appropriations 10 the amount of about l4o,0oo, 900 for the next two years while the estimated total revenue of the state will not be over 25,0e0, ,o9o. Of the s4o,eoe,oo asked, about 2s,oop, 900 is for maintenance, s2,- 500 900 for defciencies and $1e, DOC, 900 for new projects.

Pools Sell Some Stocks.

The orderly manner in which the re-
action OF yesterday and Monday pro-
gressed indicated that the selling was
coming from those who had been ac-
cumulating stocks in the last month
rather than from professional shorts,
which was borne out by reports from
commission houses regarding the charac-
ter Of the selling. Those issues which
had been bid up the highest In the
recent advances were the weakest. and
included Baldwin, Mexican Petroleum
Pan American and one or two others.
The theory that the group which ~as
largely responsible for the rise which
began late IN August was not expecting
to start continued upward movement,
but was actually planning series Of
advances and declines Of an orderly
character on which stocks could be
bought and sold with profit. is held In
some quarters The trader who has been
credited with the greatest effort In the
recent advance Is said to have been a
big seller of accumulated stocks in the
last few days. That those pools will
