HARTFORD. January 2l~-At 12
o'clock, Clerk illumun, of the Senate,
called the joint session of the House
and Senate. to order foi' the purpose of
receiving United States Senator-elect
Orville ll. Matt, and confirming his rc—
clectlon for the tcrlll of six years in
the United States Senate.
On motion of Mr. Banks, of ll‘alrflclll.
Speaker Michael Kellealy was elected
presiding of‘tlcrr of the joint session.

1.1.1.1111. of Its adoption is said to be the
promotion of the general welfare as
the keynote of that constitution. and
thus while a senator could never lose
sight of the interests of the state
which he represents he should always
have in view the welfare. happiness
and the best Interests of that great
body of American citlsens w...ch con-
stitutes the strength and glory of our
nation. The individual must some-
times image the assertion of what he
deems to be peculiarly his own right
for the gredter benefit of the society
of which he is part. A state must
sometimes forego the assertion of its
immediate right in order that the
rights of all the states all they constl
title the nation shall be regarded. A
true representative whether in lilt‘
state lcgls‘ illiil‘C or in the national leg
lslltturo, will lcprouellt to the host of
his ability the views of thc. COIlHlillii‘n'

Senator i’lott said: i delire through I
you. Mr, President, Mr. Speaker, and
you gelltlcnien who constitute the (ion
olal Assembly, to say to the people of:
(.wlonncctirut in homely heartfelt Anglo-
h‘axoli phrase i thank you Through'
these. words the heart speaks as It can
through no other. No adjectives (ilfl‘
add to their meaning, no other wordsi
can be more expressive of my emotion i
If rcpcti tioll could emphasize them I;
would say again and again i thank you.
For tw-l'nty-'f01ll years I have been a
representative of the. state of Conuec
ticut in the Senate of the United
Slates. That pellod covers not on yl
the best of a life time but it coversi
years of such marvelous national pro ‘
gross and d1.v,clopment that we may

which you have constituted the a mem-
ber surpasses in dignity, in responsi-
billty, and in lts‘lntluencc upon the
destinies of mankind. any legislative
body it: the world. My heart. would
indeed be cold and llfelosa if it were
not fllll of gratitude but. my head
would be weak if I attributed this great
honor solely to any personal achieve
meat. I think I realize the warmth of
your affection and the. extent of your
mntldencc. but i must. nevertheless bu
ileve also that in the enjoyment of this
long-continued confidence, l have been
favored by conditions and circumstanc-
es which have not so favorably affect-
cd mv predecessors.
l have follower] in the footsteps of
able, forceful and great senators whose.
term of service was shortened by death
or chanued political conudious. i will
not attempt to read the roll of the
great men who have represented (You~
necticut in the Senate of the United
States. You will recall them all from
that earliest period when Oliver Elle
worth. William Samuel Johnson. and
linger Sherman shed the lustre of their
great lives upon the history of our
state down to the time when by your
clinical, entered the Senate. The in
fluence which these senators have. ex-
ercised in 0111' national councils can
never be. over-estimated. They have
mude'a state of limited area and re
sources respected and potential in nu
tlcnal affairs. The senators whom i
have named were men who had thouahi
" “will on problems of government and
who l ”13"" ......,. than rmv others. laid
the foundations un’o’n which our noble
and enduring ' " " 'urc has been built.
They have been exemplars and models
for the senators who have followed
ithem. By their integrity, seal. and in-
fluence they created it standard which
the state has always endeavored to
live up to in the choice of its senatora
To have followed such men, to have
served the state in such a capacity now
for twenty- four years is an honor
which I cherish above every other hon—
or. and above all other possessions if
i have been ambitious. it fully fills the
measure of that ambition and to have
been chosen for a further service of
six years is an honor which far ex
media that ambition and places are un
der oblleationa which i hope to realise
but which. I fear. I may be unable to
fully discharge. I can only 11 y to you
that to the extent of my stre gth and
ability 1 shall enter upon the new term
to which you have selected are with a
firm and steadfast resolution to do all
that within me lies to be your faithful
representative.
During the? period of my service
float changes have taken place in the
world and conspicuously in our na-
tional life. Truly we may say in the
language of the Scripture: “The old
things have passed away and all things
have become new " During these
twenty-four years. since my first an-
trance to the Senate more than thirty
