When several hundred signatures are affixed, the petition will be presented to the state for consideration. This is the second time that a Waterbury state road has been advocated as at the last session of the state legislature, the matter became the center of heat ed argument when supporters of two other routes to Waterbury from this city sought action for their particu- lar sections.
