planned out Of current income at
state institutions and said: when
these institutional buildings and Inn
provements are completed. it il safe
to say that Connecticut will be near
er to meeting the social problems
represented by these institutions
than any other state in the union.
In addition. If our present sound
policy had been followed in the past,
we would not have been obliged to
place In our budget an expenditure
of $1,325,000 for interest on bonds
issued during the last democratic
administration. All our improve
ments call for only a small direct
tax of 1880, OO0."
He attacked Senator Hackett's as
sertion that it Is not fair to make
the present generation pay all the
cost for Improvements and buildings
to be used by succeeding generations
by saying that everything planned
will be used in its entirety by the
presnt generation and besides the
next generations will have greater
burdens than we to face in their
time just as We face greater bur-
dens than our fathers"
Christ Answers Argument
Senator Hackett repeated his ar
guments, made before the finance
committee yesterday. and cited the
municipal plan of issuing bonds as
an indication there is approval in
the state of the democratic proposal.
This argument was answered by
Senator Christ, who said that the
only reason municipalities were al
lowed to issue bonds for capital out
lay is that their needs exceed their
income and as these needs are
pressing, bonds must be issued.
Senator Conroy called the ''pay

COMMON PLEAS COURT
UPHOLDS CANDY FINDING
Judge NOlloy Sustains Judge SAKE in
suit Of Brill Against
IlOthstein, ct al.

Judge Thomas J. Molloy of the
court of common pleas upheld the
decision of the city court in the mat
ter of Harry Alpert of the firm OF
Alpert- Brill, against Morris X. Rot
stein and others in which Judge
Morris ID. SAKE found for the plain
tiff 10 recover on bill for mer-
chandlsC.
The litigation was over purchases
of candy the defendants made to sell
dt the Community theater in Plain
vile. AS a corporation. the defen-
dants went into bankruptcy and re-
fused to settle the bill. In city
court Judgment was rendered
against them. which was appealed.
Judge Molloy in finding for the
plaintiff cited that the only question
was whether the Indebtedness was
that of the defendants which they
agreed to pay or was it in a legal
sense debt of the Community Thea
ter. Inc. in answering this question
The court found it necessary to de-
eide 10 whom credit was extended.
AS the court heard the testimony. it
could not escape the conclusion that
credit was given to the defendants
as individuals; that the defendants
aid call at the place of business and
| that the conversation between the
plaintiff and the defendants was as
related by Alpcrt and Brill. There
fore. the Issue as found was direct
a for tn" plaintiff to recover s120-

 H Clegg, federal distrct judge of

 such accounts could not be es-
 cheated to the Territory without
 affirmative proof of death, lack lof heirs of the missing depositors, according to the Juneau Empire. l The case will be taken on appeal lby the Territory to the circuit court Iof appeals. There are several so- Icalled dead accounts, bank de- Iposits of which no trace can be found of their possessors, it was
 stated. Every effort has been made
 by banks to get in touch with them If for many years but without success.
 Tn the case tried at Fairbanks, there were several thousand dol
 lars involved. Government bonds and certificates of deposit. Nothing
 has been heard of the depositor | since 1928. The Territory sought to obtain possession under the es- cheated estates statue, bring suit against the First National Bank of Fairbanks for that purpose. Judge .Clegg ruled against the Territory, holding that it must sumbit affir- native proof of death and lack of heirs.
