RELOCATION OF TRUNK
 LINE GIVEN HEARING

Al hearing before HiRh~ay Com rlirsionsr John A MAea9n@id. held in the town hall at Central Village, Wednesday afternoon oppesition to the plan for a relocation of the state highway between Sor-ieh and Dan ielson developed There seemed to be divided sentiment in Je~stt City and opposition also appeared in Dan ielson.
 In Jeaett City She division of ssnti- ment seemed to be between those who felt that t0 send traffic around the center Of the burrough as is prOpos- ed would mean a boss Of business te stgfekeepers or Main street and those @ho felt that the benefit 70 De gained b. the change would offset any naszihle zaanesarv lose es trade
 The announcement by the highway Commissioner that where state nigh way is abandoned. as stretches of the present route will be if the relocation is made. that the expense of the maintenance and upkeep of these abandoned stretches will fall back up on the towns.
 This would mean that the towns of Killingly. plainfeld and Brooklyn would have to take care of the line from Danieison to Wauregan and Central Village. the present route. which will be abandoned and the Green Hollow road on the east side of the railroad tracks substituted fl the change # adopted. Attorney r. l.. Darbie. representing the selectmen of Kilingly, stated that while Dan ielson would welcome relief from traffic congestion on Main street. and were not afraid of losing business, the seiectmen were opposed to the relocation because it would throw the expense of caring for the Waure- gan road on the town.
 A Newton Vaughn of Putnam was present. MT. Vaughn stated that when the proposed change was en- dorsed by the Putnam Chamber Of Commerce 1t was done after informa- tion was had that there was no op- position to the change. MT. Vaughn said the Putnam Chamber stood for better roads in eastern Connecticut but that 1t did not want to see any changes that would be detriment Co any town if 1t could be helped.

 bs automobile after January next sIII f.e limited in their use of Conuec- tIrut registration markers ia that state ta fifteen days. after which they vii f,e reamIred to take out the regular Florida regi tTatlon for the faii year 1926. with the under adinR that they will be allowed a refund propor- tionate to s3 much of he sear as re- mains when they take leave 9f Florida Information t0 this affect ls drawn from a letter received Al the Connecti- cut motor vehicle department from Comptroller Ernest Amos . Florida, who calls attention t0 an amendment tg the Florida motor vehicle license law which grants full reciprocity Q other states in the matter of automobile h. censes.
 Fifty Gents Per 100 lbs.
 The Florida rate of registration Is fifty cents per 100 pounds. gross weight. for passenger ears having seating capacity of seven or less; SO the fee for registering q fige-passenger car weighing 5000 pounds will be Sl5, of which si375 would be refunded if the registration were to be surrender ed on or before February | 4 service charge of fifty cents is charged by county agents from whom registra- tions mGy be obtained under authority of the Florida comptroller.
 The effect of the new arrangement is to eliminate the cause of the difficult ty which automobilists from Connecti- cut and other Northern states get into when attempting to return from Flori- da with temporary license tags such as were issued to n0n-residents m Florida last winter The state of Maryland refused Co recognize the temporary license tag and held Up hun dreds of cars when they reached that state enroute Co northern points, mak- ing 1t necessary for the owners te pro cure by mail or otherwise registration markers from their own states or Co take out Maryland registrations Co cover their passage through that state. The Florida markers will now be rec ognized all along the route. and will be good in Connecticut for fifteen days after the automobilists return.
 Formerly 30 Days
 Under the old system in Florida, however. ait non residents were allow cd thirty days grace within which the registration markers of their home states were recognized. Now that the reciprocity arrangement has been de eided upon. the period Of grace will necessarily be determined by the mum hof Of days allowed the automobiles of Florida and other states in Gonnec- tieat. which is fixed hy the Gonnecti- cut lAW al fifteen days. Similarly. New Jersey people will be allowed ff teen days and New Hampshire people twenty days to n full year.
