Trumbull Points Out Three Day Limit on Signature Makes Con- scientious Action on Bills Impossible for Governor.
Quotes Section From State Constitution to Show That Executive Is Sup posed to Use Care and Thought in Passing on Measures.
lSnenlal tn the Heraldl

Hartford, Aug. 6-Gor. John II. Trumbull. addressing the special ses- sion of the general assembly called by him to act upon the legal tangle resulting from the supreme court of errors decision in the McCook case, delivered a message in which he out lined the general situation facing the state under the decision.
 Gov. Trumbull quoted the pre- amble to the constitution of Connec- ticut, pointing out that one clause in the constitution requires that the governor shall act upon bills passed by both houses of the legislature after careful consideration" Ob- Viously. he holds, such careful con- sideration is impossible if all of the measures passed by the general as sembly must be signed or rejected by him within three days. Sunday cx- cepted. after the adjournment of the lawmaking body.
 He indicated, however. that the should immediately proceed to at tempt to right the confusion occa- stoned by the court decision and pass some legislation to clear up doubts as to the legality of the some 1,500 laws hits by the decision. Governor Trumbull said in his | message: ---ss..-...
 "On July 25th last the supreme court of errors rendered a decision, | the effect of which presents the pos sibility of declaring null and void upward of 1,5Oo acts passed by the 1929 and previous legislatures since I1SS3.
 'The interests. property rights and welfare of cities and towns. of spe- cially chartered corporations and in dividuals are in jeopardy and may likewise become subject to the far reaching effect of this decision. "In view of this it became mani fest that a special emergency exist cd that warranted the governor con- vening the general assembly of 1929 in special session to consider and take such action as would effective ly meet and relieve the emergency.
 Finds Law Void
 "The decision referred to concerns an act passed by the general assem- bly of 1925 and appoved by the gov ernor, June 22, 1925. The court found the act unconstitutional be- cause it did not provide for a proper taking of private property nor for the payment of just compensation. In addition to these reasons, finding the act to be unconstitutional, the court further indicated that all acts, pub lie and private. signed more than three calendar days, Sundays except ed, after the final adjournment of the general assembly, may be void.
 Tt is to be understood. however, that the court thereby has not rcn- dercd void all other acts similarly signed and approved more than three days after final adjournment It is my understanding and l am so advised by the attorney generals of flee. of a like character. are in full force and effect until declared other wise. But the atmosphere of unccr- tainty which now exists and may continue to exist until the supreme court of errors has had an oppor tunity of reviewing this question in

.R0SSBERG FIGHTS
 HARTFORD SCHEME FOR WATER RIGHTS
Believes New Britain Should Have Voice in Developing
 Metropolitan Area
WOULD NOT SURRENDER
 ON HARRINGTON RIVER

Former Member of Water Commis-
 sip, Speaking to Lions Club,
 Strong for Holding Out Against
 Capital City for Expansion of
 Municipal Supply Watershed Un-
 less This Community Has Repre-
 sentation.
 A joint board of control of the cities interested in the present Wa ter supply controversy between Hartford and New Britain was sug- gested today by former Water Com- missioner William B. Rossberg as the solution of future water difficult ties.
 Mir. Rossberg pointed out in all address to members of the Lions club at luncheon at the Burritt hotel that the waters of the west branch of the Pennington river to- wards which Hartford is looking with longing eyes, rightfully should be used 10 supply additional water to New Britain as well as Southing- ton. Meriden and Middletown. He added that if. Hartford would be willing to give New Britain the Ne paug reservoir, New Britain would not need any water from the Farm ington river, since the water from Burlington brook would be turned into the Nepaug river and thence carried by means of a tunnel through the mountain 10 Shuttle Meadow.
 Hartford wants a water shed Of 100 square miles, while New Britain has but 11.14 square miles, he said. New Britain should have at least half as much territory as Hartford
 Rossberg's Statement
 Mr. Rossberg spoke as follows:
 One of the best things that has happened to New Britain lately was the application of the Hartford
  on the east branch of the Farming ton river for it threw monkey wrench in the complicated and ex- pensive scheme our local board had under consideration for increasing our water supply. When they saw our opposition to their proposition, they offered to let us run the Bur ,lington brook into the Nepaug reser- Noir.'t
 If we can use the Nepaug reser- voir for storage it will save us the expense of raising the Shuttle Mea- dow dam 50 feet, costing S2,357, 900, according to Engineer Allan Hazen' s report submit5d to the New Brit ain board of water commissioners, February 14, 1920.
 For the last four weeks there has been prepared a series of articles appearing in the Hartford Times by various authors advocating in this part of the state a metropolitan or community system Of government centering in Hartford.
 Last week a very able paper was given by Engineer Savill of the Hart ford board of water commissioners regarding the water supply for this proposed district of more than or dinary interest to the people of the city of New Britain
 But while the article was very interesting in a general sense, it was lacking in some local details with which New Britain people are most concerned, namely,
 City Should Not Surrender Rights
 The method of and by whom the same should be controlled. For the people of our city would not take

 Route Through Russia and China

 Lack of Radio Advices in Great
 Wastes Handicap.
 Lakehurst. N. J., Aug. 6 (uP)- Perils unknown to even such hardy adventures as transatlantic f1iers await the Graf Zeppelin on it's round the-world flight, in the opinion of Dr. Hugo Eckener, commander of the dirigible.
 The long cruise is scheduled to start from here Wednesday at mid highland 60 men worked today at the job of refueling the great air ship. They were filling her both with hydrogen, the lifting gas, and ethane, the fuel gas. and it was ex- pected the work would not be finish cd before tomorrow evening.
 Dr. Eckener believes the most formidable obstacles in the way of realization of his dream of an aerial circumnavigation of the world will be encountered in the silence over the Siberians tundra wastes, between Friedrichshafen and Tokio.
 Ships and Ayiators
 Grave as the dangers of trans oceanic passage are admitted to be, powerful radio stations sputter es- sential information from either shore. Scores of well wishing sur face ships are ready to pick up, and if necessary, re-transmit these weather observations to their aerial competitor. Upon the basis of this constant flow of data navigation of ficers of the Graf Zeppelin chart their winding course. They dart south of a storm center here, or speed up their motors to catch a favorable wind reported nearby.
 Asia offers no radio protection to even adequate maps. For land marks Eckener must utilize the great riv- CTS which twist through the Russo Asiatic plains. Word of his coming may not have preceded him to the far places he must pass over. The Graf might be pot shotted by an anxious villager unaware of it's peaceful mission.
 Germany great wireless station at
 Germany's great wireless station III Graf. But Nauen will have no means of predicting weather conditions ahead of the dirigiblo. Always ahead will be the tundra horizon beckoning the craft forward to un- known danger. Eckener will sleep more soundly when that stretch is passed. To land without destroying the ship probably would be impos- sible. Bringing such a craft to earth IS an operation requiring 1S men below for every man m the dirig- ible's crew.
 Doesn't Fear Pacific
 The Pacific ocean apparently con- cerns Eckener but slightly. He will fly north of ship lanes, along the .Aleutian Island group to the vicin- ity of Seattle, Wash. where he will turn south to his first American stop at Los Angeles. A new test awaits the Graf Zeppelin between Los An seles and Lakehurst on the final lap during which the Rocky Mountain chain must be crossed in the vicinity Of Tucson, Ariz. Valleys are more 10 a Zeppelin's liking. The atmos- phere into which Rocky Mountain peaks thrust upward is light in con- Iarison to that nearer sea level and

Six Bills Unanimously
 Adopted After Demo-

Dept. Atty. Gen. Averill
 | Says Action Not Certain Cure, However, Until Court Has Ruled on Le- gality of Blanket Heal ing" Acts.

State Capitol. Hartford. Aug. 6 R>-Thc general assembly this after; noon by concurrent vote in both houses validated more than 1900 laws which supreme court decision had declared to be void.
 The democratic minority in each tranch, through it's leaders, pointed out that it did not believe that the method used 10 revivify the laws was the right one but it did not vote in opposition.
 The general assembly at 2:40 D.; n. was in readiness to be adjourned oy the governor, it's work in which it had met in special session, being ended.
 The first bill, re-enacting all the invalidated laws, making retroactive and legal all acts under them, vali- dating private, municipal and state operations, performed under them.' was voted in unanimously by the house though democrats, through, their leader, John F. Tobin, of Waterbury. prophesied further diff culties in the courts
 Would Validate Laws Majority Leader Raymond A. Johnson of Manchester said the gen. eral bill, the first of six, was an at-' ! tempt which we believe will be ef- ] fective." 10 validate ''by the best means all the laws invalidated by the decision.
 Hobin's statement on behalf of his minority. was that the democrats 'disavow responsibility for the emer-, cency and that in voting to supports the bill, we do not commit ourselves to an opinion as to it's soundness. We consider the bill only in the light of; an emergency, but We do not ap-i prove the method by which it re-, stores the 1500 affected laws. We feel that only the re-enactment. one by one, of the laws would stand up constitutionally.
 we support the majority leaders because of the gravity of the situa- ton. because we are working for the people of the state and because we uon't want to stand in the way of any progressive and effective action We will continue to support the ma jority in the effort to relieve the! state Of a bad condition"
 Other Five Bills Passed
 The house then passed the other five acts which the legislative leaders believe will "heal"' conditions caus- ed in the state by the supreme courts ruling.
 The senate was in recess while the house acted. It was expected the, senate would concur with action just! as speedy as that of the house.
