House Will Allow $2.500 Ior the
Work. Which ii is Claim-
ed is Necessary
HARTFORD-June 9.~The house to
day passed the measure providing for
a commission to investigate the rivers
and harbors of Connecticut subject to
an assessment to the effect that the
commission be not allowed to spend
more than $2,500 in the work. There
was considerable opposition even to
this, Representative Dormitser said
the state was going to run behind at
least two slid a half million: for the
two years. He said he did not believe
that this money should be spent by a
commission. Representative Hunt-
ings. of Windsor. said that the govern-
ment had already spent a great deal
of money for surveys, and that he had
written to the War Department and
desired delay to gain further informa-
tion. He thought the state did not
need to spend the money as the state
already has the data. Representative
Chandler said that he thought the
state ought to meet the government
half way In the matter of Improving
the rivers and that he understood that
the government would spend about
$400,000 in dredging the Connecticut
river. Representatives beets, Fuller
and Dormitzcr opposed any delay in
settling the matted Representative
Smith, of Mlddletown. stated that he
had learned that a survey of the Con
nectlcut river had never been made.
and he also differed with Mr. Dormit-
ner that the state would run behind
two million and a half. Mr. Chandler
said that there seemed to be a nlysten
ions influence which opposed anything
the city of Hartford wanted. The pro
vious question was moved and the
matter adopted as amended.
The measure allowing Folrileld
county to issue bonds was amended
so that the bonds are not exempt from
taxation. The matter was at once
sent to the senate. The same course
was taken in the matter of o 8600.000
bond lssite In the town of Greenwich.
Favorable reports were made on the
measure for bonds for schools and oth-
er improvements in Waterbury and
Plymouth. the bill regarding the use
of motor boats was taken up and
amendments were passed in concur
rence made by the assets last week.
Several meantime relating to fish and
game were taken from the table and
the bill to malts sheriffs‘ fees in fish
and game arrests was adopted. Dian.
greelng action on lamprey eels was
reported. and the house insisted on
former llcilon. Representatives Hall
and Culver were appointed I commit-
tee on conference. A measure on the
distribution of front was rejected. The
house was opened' with prayer by the
Rev. Charles 0. Clark, of Shelton.
Calendar business taken up.
The house received the veto of the
Penman resolution from Governor
Weeks. the message being as follows:
The Honorable General Assembly:
1 herewith return without my on
proval to the house in which it origi-
nated. House bill No. 250. an act
amending the charter of the City of
New Haven concerning police commis-
sioners. for the following reasons:
The actual effect of this bill Is to
prevent one engaged in a lawful oc-
cupation from holding the allies of
police commissioner. That the charter
of the City of New Haven already pro-
hibits police commissioners from en-
gaging in certain occupations does not
now mnceln us.
It is a salutary principle of our form
of government that each locality shall
have to the highest degree the right
of self~governmeut limited only by the
consideration of general welfare. For
many years Connecticut's policy to
wards her cities has been to grant a
restricted number of elective ofllcss
and to charge the uncumbent with
the duty of appointing the minor oili-
cisls.
Except where peclal training is es
sential. widest stole scope for this
nppolntlve power is necessary. both to
remote the largest measure of official:-
cy and to lay out certainly the res
sensibility w it should rest. In
my opinion chit policy is current with-
out question, and it is also my opinion
that said bill is inconsistent there-
with. that any lawful Occupation
should be a bar to tenure of an ethos
requiring no special training. and
seems to me to narrow unduly the
scope of selection if in an exception-
al instance for specific reasons it is
necessary so as to‘narrow the scope
of appointive poweul believe the lo-
cality. and not the state should draw
the line. I am therefore of the opin-
ion that this blil l ought not to pass,
and I return it to you without approv-
a .
