fit to oppose another measure be- fore the legislature which would give tho city of New Britain a rep- resentatiye on the Public Utilities commission.
 When we recall some of the im- portant measures that this city has brought before the public utilities commission and some of the ap- peals we have taken only to be re- fused relief by the state body the need of representation on that board becomes more apparent.
 "A law opposed by Judge filling would give each city of 25,00O popu- lation or more. representative on the public utilities commission, this enlarged body to act only in matters pertaining to the state at large or to cities of more than 25,O00 popu- lation. In matters pertaining 10 towns of smaller size, the present commission of three members would function.
 ..If the city of New Britain had a representative on the commission I believe the municipality would have it's transportation needs better pre- scented before the board and deci- sions of greater benefit would re- suit. am certain that under the proposed change, this city would not be required to create the hazards that now exist through the numer- ous spur tracks on Chestnut street. Several years ago, the city opposed new spur track on recommends ton of the board of public works and the common council. On an ap- peal to the public utilities commis- sion, the Connecticut Co. was per- mitted to proceed with the track. We appealed to the superior court and the courts answer was that we have clothed our public utilities commission with power to legislate In matters of this kind and we are powerless.
 "The stand that has been taken by our representative defeats the idea of representative government and encourages. in my opinion, such decisions by the public utilities con- mision."
