REVISION BILL | FACING DEFEAT
Governor Expected to Veto Merit System Amend

tBy Democrat Legislative RepOrssr,

CBy Democrat Legislative Reporter
 State Capitol, Hartford, May 20 An amendment to the merit sys- tenn revision act, providing for ems ployes of state institutions to re- main within the merit system, was defeated in the Senate late yester- day after 1t had been offered and strongly supported by Senator Mi- chael V. Blansfleld of Waterbury. The vote against the amendment was i5-i0.
 Senator Blansefild contended that if institutional employees are to be outside the merit system, other state employees should likewise be exempt.
 The legislative fact-flnding cons mittee had recommended that in- stitutional workers be exempted and a member of the committee, Senator John Holbrook, Westhroolg Republican, opposed the Blansfield amendment.
 The Senate shortly afterward adopted the revision bill recom- mended by the committee, concur ring in action taken last week by the House.
 However, the whole merit system controversy may have no practical effect, since Gov. Robert A. Hurley, 1t now appears, will veto the revi- sion bill,

Razing of the corinty-ovned resi-. dental building adjoining the court house on Kendrlck avenue, will be-. gin soon after adjournment Of the General Assembly, according to County Commissioner R l c Il a r q Clarke of Wallingford.
 County legislators at . recent meeting approved plans to tear down the building because Of pass age of a law requiring counties to pay municipal taxes on property not used for county purposes. The county now receives $840 In rentals a year from the building but city taxes would amount to almost $9o0, meaning yearly loss for the county.
 Apparently the property is to stand idle after the building Is raZed, for Commissioner Clarke denies re. ports that tho site would be used for & parking space.

MORAL STRENGTH
 URGED BY RECTOR
Rev. Roger Anderson Hart. ford Memorial Guest
 Speaker Yesterday

Hartford, May 2o.-"We must bear in mind that national defense does not rest solely in the realm of the material. Along with ships, tanks, guns and planes must 90 the spiritual and moral qualities to use them effectively" Rev. Roger W. Anderson, rector of Trinity Church, Waterbury, said at the annual Me- morial Service of the Hartford Chapter. ankee Division Veterans Association, at Soldiers Field yester- day afternoon.
 "There rests upon each one of us the responsibility to conserve and defend the liberty. freedom and Jus- tice for which America stands" MT. Anderson said. True patriotism is @ marvellous virture, but 1t may and has in many quarters degenrated into Q 5trident nationalism which denies all ties of human brother hood and seeks only the satisfaction of its own selfish ambitions at the cost of serfdom and slavery for other peoples.
 "The American flag stands today as 1t has ever stood for liberty and Justice. Its crimson stripes tell of sacrifices made by brave men and women in its defense; the white tells of purity of intention, of noble ann bitions and the desire for lofty at- tainments; the blue geld speaks ot truth which is ever to guide and direct our national life and save us from error and falsehood; the gilt tering stars of the union proclaim the glory of brotherhood.
 Let us become as 1t were a liv- ing flag, let Us arm ourselves with a noble purpose. let us follow with unfaltering steps the path of truth; let the spirit of sacrifice triumph over selfishness Let the red. white and blue of our naional flag be re- produced in each life"
 About 200 persons attended the ceremonies, which were held 1T spatters of rain.
