STATE GRANGE MASTER
 OPPOSES DAYLIGHT SAVING

The enactment by the present gen. eral assembly of laws to make possible action by Connecticut courts in unison with the federal government in enforc- ing the eighteenth amendment anu the Volstead act was advocated by State Master Frank E. Blakeman of Stratford in his annual address before the Con- necticut State Grange convened in it's thirty-sixth annual session Tuesday at Foot Guard hall in Hartford. The state master condemned the adoption lasc year of daylight time saving schedule, which he said, was contrary to the standard laid down in the general statutes, as lawful time, by certain cities and towns. :" It caused, he continued, much confusion and annoyance and added materially to the cost of the production of agricultural food prophets. He urged strenuous cp- positionHto any renewal of the schedule this year. '. On the subject of good roads he said mo town can afford not to provide good roads all the year around. that the pro- ducts of the farm may be delivered te their markets regularly and cheaply.' He said the grange should support tht state highway department in it's work. On the proposition for a state consta bulary the state master said it was de 1 serving of serious consideration. Int subject of better policing of country 1 towns would be before the general as sembly from several different angles. | The establishment of state bureat of markets was recommended as advan l tageous to both. producers and consum | CTS.
 There are 145 subordinate granges il Connecticut with a membership of ap proximately 17,000.
 The annual session was opened in tn l morning at 11.30 with State Maste | Blakeman presiding.
