The constitution. as drawn up by the

the House. this morning. In a way that
took the House by surprise. When the
rtsolution amending the constitution,
permitting the use of voting machines.
was about to be passed, Mr. Hubbard.
of Litcbfield, otfereu a motion amend-
ing the motion by adding to it the en-
tire constitution as revised by the cou-
vention with the excepton of the repre-
sentaton clause for which Mr. Hub-
bard substituted this clause: "That
the House of Representatives be com-
posed of one representative from each
town." Mr. Banks demurred to this
action, saying it was altogether too
broad. Mr Hubbard answered Mr.
Banks by saying that the state had
paid over $50,000 for the document
which he now wanted adopted. and
that it had met with the fullest en-
dorsement of most people in the state
with the exception of the representative
clause. By amending to make the
House consist of one member for each
town, Mr. Hubbard thought it would
meet with unanimous support. Mr
Scovllle. chairman of the House com-
nittee on constitutional amendments,
said that the proposed adoption of the
convention‘s document. was of the tits
.nost importance. and he worked for

pital, Mr. Brophl’. of Ridgofield. asked
that it be tabled, because, the institu-
tion had no doctors. and should receive
state aid until it could provide suita-

The committee on military affairs,
reported favorably this morning on the
resolution requesting the United States
