to try for a lighter tone by adding flesh colored

The legislators seem 10 fear if such a commission got under way and made survey it would be nasty reading; 1t might shatter their con- placency, lead them to believe that all IS not sweetness and light in glorious Nutmegia. So the bill was rejected, perhaps on the principle that discretion is the better part Of vaIor.
 What harm could come from a survey it IS difficult to determine. Of course, the survey would cost little money, but not much. The Demo- crats were eternally in the right when they made point Of the fact that the state spent sl000O on the gov ernor's Foot Guards to go 10 Washington and could provide money for an old-age survey.
 Such spectacles as this lead to the impression that the politicians in the Legislature are hard hearted or hard boiled. They want nothing 10 be brought up that might lead to social legislation. The projected survey was doubtless regarded merely as a step in the direction of doing something for the dependents Everyone knows quite well that the state is not anxious to lead the country in this species Of social vel fare

MORE ABOUT NEED FOR GOOD DIRT ROADS

Every year. the state Of Connecti- cut entertains folks from the rural districts and the Roads, Rivers and Bridges committee of the legislature hears all about the deplorable con- ditiOn Of the dirt roads about the state. This year, they are asking for a paltry S50N.0o0 to repair the more glaUng mud holes and notoriously muddy roads. The farmers have an argument which is hard for the spellbinders to get around. and that is ''why isolate the farmer" If the small farmer has an outlet, and fairly decent roads leading into the city. 1t will follow that his produce can be purchased more reasonable.
 The highway commissioner builds trunk lines and state aid roads and spends very very much more than s5OU.00p to keep the state roads in repair, but the small towns of Con- necucut seem to want to divorce dirt roads from his endeavors. At a hearing, at the state capitol, Tues day afternoon, conditions were told of doctors who could not get to sick persons, Of ministers who could not get to their parishes, and of farmers who could not get their produce 10 market.
 Toward the end Of the hearing, member Of the judiciary committee opposed the s57o,ooO proposition, saying that he favored an appropri- alton Of $1o,QQ0.0o0 so the roads could he repaired. He went further and said that the economy program pay as you go idea could be over done.
 II would tickle the 1G9 towns of the state If a dirt road commission We're appointed by the Governor, with consent Of the legislature. and give 'hom a workable sum to carry out the relief measures so that they would be beneficial to urban and suburban districts alike. In this WAY, the busy highway commissioner would bo relieved Of an embarrassing ga,s'io1.
