No Bill Inimical
 To Interests Went
 Through Hartford
Several Measures Met Defeat By Solid Party Maorties Local Senators and Representatives Played lnl= pOrtant Part in Sittings

s. Reed of this city introduced prac- tically all of these bills
 The committee report points with satisfaction to the fact tha special ized labor laws were repored upon unfavorably because, it is expelained, they were deemed unnecessary.
 Concerning the state tax struc- ture, it is pointed out that no change was made although the finance com mittee reported favorably on a bill creating a commission to study local property taxes. This bill. however, was killed when the appropriations committee, to whom the measure was finally referred, rendered an un- favorable report.
 The report shows that the motor vehicle code for Connecticut was considerably improved, although there were no radical departures from the existing law. Pride is that the Connecticut laws concern ing aviation were brought up to- date. Representative Joseph Jack son of Naugatuck was a member of this committee.
 The principal legislation concern in agriculture was contained in a NH WAiSi Wdo PhSoOo iol eAAO oP- propriation of $3,000,000 for the "dirt road" building campaign. The democrats wanted $5,000,000 but the republican majority voted $3,000,000 Waterbury will receive over $17,000 from this fund.
 The milk regulation laws were also strengthened, fresh eggs were given a statutory definition and the forest fire statutes were amended during the 1881 session, the com mittee reports to the Manufacturers association. During the 1881 ses sion Senator Joseph H. Lawlor of this citly introduced bill concern ing the prevention of forest fires.
 In it's report the committee points out that 21 commissions were ap- pointed by the recent legislature. including the one made possible by Senator Lawlor's bill, calling for the naming of a body to study the need of walks along state highways.
 The changes to the constitution, such as the naming of judges, are mentioned in the report. The report also calls attention to the incerase in the minimum pensions for teach CTS who are retired. A bill to this effect was introduced by Senator Reed of this city. The increase in appropriations for state institutions is also pointed to. Waterbury bene- fited along this line when $20,000 was granted the local Anti-Tuber-

Satisfaction with the fact that no bill inimical to the interests of the manufacturers of the state passed the 1891 session of the legislature is expressed in the report of the leg islative committee of the Connecticut Manufacturers association made public today. It is pointed out in the report that the association cannot properly claim credit for the pas sage or the defeat of legislation and it is added that all credit for the 1891 legislation is due to the fore sight, intelligence and discrimination of the various state officials, the leaders in the general assembly, the chairman and members of the var- iou legislative committees and to the members of the senate and house as a whole.
 According to the report, the laws concerning the hours of labor for men and women in Connecticut in- dustry were not changed although a number of bills providing for such changes were introduced by Repre- these bills was introduced by Repre- sentative Hugh Burns of Naugatuck. who made a spirited fight for his measure but who was defeated by the solid republican majority.
 The report also points out that the laws concerning the regulation of municipal wastes and sewage were improved. The committee also re- ports to the Manufacturers associa- tion that the compensation law was improved in minor respects. As to social legislation, such as unemploy- ment insurance, the report explains that the proposed measures were not considered favorably because it was realized that there is much to be learned before the legislature can act intelligently. Two bill concerning state employe pensions were reported unfavorably and the commission on pensions was asked to continue it's stury, the committee points out in it's report.
 According to the committee of the Manufacturers association, the man. date of Governor Wilbur L. Cross to the legislature ito marshall the facts concerning the experience in other states'' affecting old age pen sions was carried out through the appointment of an old age pension commission.
 The banking laws of Connecticut were matediallly improved, laws af- fecting brokerage practices were strengthened and insurance laws were improved upon, the report points out especially. Senator Lewis
