A;;ri%2ti.-——'l‘lie general aoaeiubly will reconv he tomorrow find like up the work of legislation inn sl‘rit of getting through quickly. Act- ing Governor Wet-ks is anxious to have the session prorogued by June 20 and unless some particular debate is pro- longed, it seems likely ibai this can be accomplished about that date or a little later. The impression prevails llliil the two names to be sent in for judges of the Superior (‘ouri bench to fill vacancies whicir will occur some months hence by reason of retirements for age, will be those of Attorney-General Marcus H. Holcomb and Michael Kenealy, of Stamford. The public utilities bill as brought to the attention by the unfavorable re- port of the committee on the judiciary will be before the house on Wednes- day. ’l‘he acceptance of the report is expected with little delay. Many of the members who flavors public utill. ties commission have. met. and dis- cussed ilie. prospects. agreed that it would be useless to fight for rejection of the report. Under house rules the bill is not before the members. and the would-be insurgents can do nothing towards offering an amendment as the question first comes on the acceptance or rejection of the report. The plan seems to be that members favoring the bill will rise and uents they are in favor of a bill creat- ing a commission. and regret that a minority report at least will not be sent in. t A canvass of the clerks of commlt' tees indicates that threefourths of the total number of measures introduced have been consideaed by committees and of the remaining fourth there are many bills which need but short con- sideration. in committees there is much work for executive session. This week will see considerable of this done. The public health and safety committee iins‘hourd nearly all of its 7.'l measures and has reported 32. A favorable report is to be made on the bill providing that all schoolhouses having more than four school rooms shall be fireproofcd. There is some difference of opinion on the bill to protect the purity of ice supply ill ponds in ii. ll. 26. ;A big debate is anticipated on the act amending the action concerning the practice of med- icine. The purport‘of the proposed change is that no person shall pre scribe medicine or treatment without first being licensed. The opponents of the aincndmelil‘ claim that under it no person could ‘if ' on giving sooth ing syrup lo a baby, recommend that a person having and ng tooth pulled out without \‘ioiatiiig‘lhe law. The committee on towns and pro hale districts has yet it). report the l’ardee bill for creating fourteen towns in New Haven. In the Plait bill sei- tlng off a portion of Orange and adding it to Milford tilt-rte is a disagreement as Orange wants the sister town to as- sume a proportionate pari of Illt' debt of Orange in with the territory. An inquiry is expected this week into the limiter of the fees paid to the clerks of the Superior Court in New lavcu. There were numerous requ is f r increases and as one clerk whose n niinal salary is given at $4.100 asks for a 3700 increase. and other clerks want various amounts. considerable curiosity has developed as to the rea- son for such demands. (‘oinpirollcr Bradstreet will prepare ai once a schedule of the salaries paid to the clerks at New Haven. The amended automobile law will be discussed this week. Much of opposi- tion to the proposition for a cominis~ sioner of automobiles has shown it: self. The preparation of a consiilutlonal amendment to meet the emergency through which the state has just gone will be taken up at once. it is expect— ed that a day will be set apart for culogles to the late governor. There may be some emergency acts : ' immediately to meet other peculiar conditions which have arisen. The. question has been asked as to whether acting Governor Weeks, will receive the salary of the governor. This ques tion probably will first come up in the comptroller‘a ofilce. if Mr. Weeks is not entitled to the salary of the ofv lice this is a matter to be remedied.
