Hartford. Conn.,, Aug. 27.-(UP)- Gubernatorial approval was awaited today on c proposal to keep branch offices of the motor vehicle depart. inent open at Willimantic, Norwalk and Danbury by shifting respon- sibility for the highway safety com. mission payroll of ei4,000 a year to the state highway department.

 The highway safety commission payroll now is shouidered by the
 motor vehicles department. The transfer was recommended by Mo tor Vehicles Commissioner Michael 4. Connor who anticipated Gov Cross would approve the plan when he returned from Lake Sunapee, N H., next Tuesday.

Trustees To Decide
 On State Building
Opinions Differ as to Type for Connecticuts Official
 Headquarters at Exposition-Plans Suggested

House front, drawn 6 few years ago, Objection has been raised to this plan on the ground that 1t takes c disapropcrtionate amount of money for the decoration of the front ci the building, with its white pillars, Colonial doorway, and stone porch. Some of the other New England states, using expensive stone trim Vn the fronts of their show buildings, have had this experience.
 Now that the Connecticut build- ing is . prospect for the near future other ideas are being preached. One suggestion is building of glass blocks. disregarding Colonial style, and designed entirely with the view of getting maximum show place and maximum eye-catching values. 4 verbal picture is painted of Q hand- some building which would glow and shine over its entire surface when the interior was lighted at night.
 Such a building might be con- structed, for instance, without win- dows, the glass walls admitting light during the daytime hours.
 Up to Governor
 Members of the board of trustees, not yet having met to organize, are unprepared to talk about plans. Governor Cross will call them to- gether in the near future for a pre-. lininary meeting with the raising of $25. 900 in private subscriptions as the first order of business. Selection of Q design for the building prob- ably will be postponed until the board is sure of money to con- Struct 1t.
 An opportunity to talk over Con- necticut's plans for the exposition will be afforded att he Qoyernor'z 'z Day luncheon at the fair in 6ep- tember. when governors of all the New England staes will have then customary meeting.
 The exposition this year may be the starting point for the fund.- raising campaign for Connecticut building. Show space ili the Indus trial building at Ina far grounds 4 heius held M ffsefN1 frf f'sN E4n. #..I.& I.S.II 4z..... aA.--.

Watcrburians who visit the East- crn States Exposition next year at Springfield may be in for 6 surprise. Al the moment the question of what type of building Connecticut will construct is moot. Some carly minded citizens lean towards Q rec production Gf the old Staet Capitol at HartforcH Others would like to see 6 imoderlk ktructure.
 The debateA according to The Hartford Courd.it, about the states exposition building is along the tol. lowing lines:
 Shall 1t be a Colonial design to conform with architecture of other New England state exhibition build ings in the Streets of States ct West Springfield, Mass, or shall It be 2 nidern show building tracing It's pa- ternity perhaps to the Paris Expos- sltion and constructed for instance, of glass blocks?
 Trustees Decide
 silese questions will De decided in que time by the board of trustees recently appointed by Governor NIUDB " SHAeS AsiohtSy A0h HAS 0Ass0- Ing and take charge of It's construc- ton. Tn the meantime the matter is becoming a topic of discussion among those interested in the ex- position.
 Tn the several years that Connec- lieut. has talked about constructing It's own building, some day, at West Springfield, the general thought has peen that 1t should conform to the Colonial aspect of its neighbortug structures there. Massachusetts. Maine, Vermont and New Hamp- shire have buildings, which, wihel uot alike, all carry out the idea of early New England architecture.
 The most talked-of suggestion has seen to reproduce the fronA of the Old State House in Hartford as the kont of the Connecticut building. 70 matter what the front. the mair kodg of the building need be only sifnply- designed shed giving maxi- aausai space and light for exhibits.
