STATE ENGINEER SAYS
DEPARTMENT. FUNDS
IN A BAD CONDITION

The senate was called upon, on Sat
urday, following the receipt of an ur-
gent communication from Governor
Hunt, inclosing full report from the
new state engineer, Frank K. Good
man, to appropriate, with the house,
the sum of $3.50, ,586.67 ''to prevent the
complete collapse of the highway de-
partment before March /.
Senator Elliott of Greenlee county,
took the leading part in discussion
of the highway department affairs.
Upon reading Governor Hunts letter,
which was in the nature of an intro
duction to the statement by the state
engineer, Mr.. Elliott explained the
mass of figures to the members. IL
beginning he declared that "a crisis,
and a serious crisis has been reached
in the most important department of
public works"
Quoting from Mr.. Goodman's fig
ures, Senator Elliott said that work
contracted for, orally and in writing,
and other work which it would be in
expedient to discontinue, obligated the
state, up to the end of the present
fiscal year, June 80, to the expendi-
ture of $2,7S5, ,155.08.
Funds on hand and expected from
every source up to June 30, he declar-
ed, amount to only S1,233, ,902.04.
BY a simple problem in subtraction,
he asserted, the state, on June 30,
1923, will face deficit of $1,551,-
253.04.
Senator Elliott declared the state
engineer had sought high and low for
way out of the dilemma. He even
considered shutting down highway
construction work of every descrip-
ton on February 1. But he discov-
cred, the senator said, that such action
would entail a cost of 1896, ,S78.41,
with only $233 ,09834 in sight to meet
it, leaving deficit of S763,779.67.
In order to meet payrolls and pre-
vent the actual collapse of the high
way department, Mr.. Elliott said, it
would be necessary to appropriate
1886 ,586.67, to tide Mr.. Goodman over
until other means could be found to
come to his relief after March 1.
In closing his remarks, he demanded
that full investigation be ordered.

It developed on Tuesday that the
state engineer had overlooked certain
funds due the highway department.
On Monday $108,000 Unexpectedly
showed up at the state treasury and
the legislature, in the midst of pass

deficit no longer threatening, called it
off.

 There is no idea Of evacuating the Ruhr at present, it was stated. and the French troops will be maintained at their existing strength for tho time being, pending developments, but will be taken off the streets and out of tn cities so that the population will not be constantly reminded Of their presence, thus reducing the occasion for possible friction.
 The principal measure Of relief for the occupied district, howevg, will be the release of many of the political prisoners and permission for expelled persons to return to their homes. The recommendation of General Dee goutte. French ambassador in the Ruhr. in each individual case will be accepted. If is stated that the cases of those of Prussian nationality will be examined more closely. as has been done in rcemploying the rail- road workers. preference being given natives of the Ruhr and tho Rhine- land.

RESALE PRICE BILL
 AGAIN IN CONGRESS
Might Solve Problem Manufac-
 turerS and Retailers Face
BY GEORGE H. MANNING


 tWashington Bureau of New Britain Heradn
 Washington, D. C.. Dec. 4.-The Merritt resale price bill, making it laWful for growers, manufacturers or producers of goods offered for sale under trademark or special brand to fix the prices at which such articles should be sold, was reintroduced in the opening days session of the new congress by Representative Schuyler Merritt, of Stamford Conn.
 This bill, which was framed by Mir. Merritt during the last congress, but failed of passage because of the press of urgent legislation in the interstate and foreign commerce committee, is believed to offer practicable solu- ton to the question which has vexed thousands of manufacturers over the entire country ever since the courts decided that the federal trade com mission was correct in declaring that the fixing of prices by manufacturers was illegal under the antitrust acts. It has aroused the hearty endorse ment of manufacturers and chambers of commerce throughout Connecticut and all over the United States, and will undoubtedly be able to muster great strength.
 The unique feature of Mir. Merritt's bill is the provision which prohibits the retailer or other purchaser from disposing of trade marked goods at price less than that fixed by the manufacturer. without first offering them back to the manufacturer at the price paid. The theory is that the manufacturer will take it off the retailers hands in order to prevent his standard price being cut; or if he does not do so he cannot complain of the price cutting. This is believed to meet all the prohibitions of the trade commission and the courts.
 A number of bills having the same end in view have been introduced in past congresses. but Mir. Merritt in- sists that his bill is the only practi- cable method yet proposed. Repre- sentative Kelly of Pennsylvania, also has bill which he was pushing in the last congress. and which he in- tends to reintroduce, and it ais believ- ed that these two will be the basis of extensive investigation and hearings by the commerce committee.
 Congressman Merritt intends to press the commerce committee. of which he is a member, for early con-
