Oe course the end isn't in sight yst in Hartford as Mayor Moylan and others assert that they will car- " their fight to the Legislature. In order to make the new charter form binding on Hartford the Legislature must approve 1t at the l947 session. It doesn't seem likely, though, that the Legislature would go contrary to the wishes of the majority of those who voted in the special Hart ford election. but anything might happen, in view of the preponderant 0.oP. strength in both the Senate and House. Democrats might try to make themselves a factor in this Assembly fight, but they are numer- ically lacking to be able to do any thing. And Republican members of the Legislature may be disposed to So along with the Hartford politicos rather than with the new charter adherents, but still to be surmount- cd Is the conclusive fact that In an open election the city manager ad- vocates won.

Politics
 --ln- Passing

Hartford ploltlcos are stlll count. ma noses ct the weekend, although N was lAet Tuesday when the major political parties suffered better Ahan a-to.i shellcaklng at the hands of the city manager charter pro- nonenls No one believed that such an outcome was possible after the vote that was recorded in Hartford on November bth, when the Demo- ofals captured the city by on H.. coo majority in the face of Con. nectlcute Republican landslide. Yet when the votes were counted after Che special referendum Tuesday the result was about the same, 80 Tar ns maiorities are concerned. The charter upholders had defeated the politicos by an ii.00O majority Un- fortunately for the rest of the state or the nation for that matter the result was not conclusive. It didn't prove that the city manager form ol government was more popular than e mayor-council or similar form. There are approximately 82,- OOo registered voters in Hartford. Less than half of them voted on the charter question Tuesday; less than one-third of them voted; usjt about one-fourth of them voted.
