CONNECTICUT CONGRESSMEN ON
. COMMITTEES.
After all Connecticut's congressmen
fair well in the matter of committee
assignments at Washington, even if we
did have an Idea that "Uncle .Ioe" Can-
non had no love for Connecticut and
was determined to shelve our more
Ilentatlves on the Committee on Acous-
tios. or the Committee on Women's
Suffrage. says the. Bridgeport I’ost.
Congressman Hill remains on.Ways
and Means, one of the most import-
ant' assignments in the gift of the
speaker. Of his qualifications for that
position no one can question. or hilt
little less importance Is Congressman
Higglus' position on the Committee on
Judiciary, the legal advising body of,
the House. Then, again. Congressman
Tllson. for his first term. goes to the
Committee on Military Affairs. a very.
active body. Congressman Sperry re-
mains at the head of the Committee on
Alcoholic Liquor Traffic. Represents-i
tive Henry Is a member of the Com-
mittees on Patents and Merchant Mar-
Inc and Fisheries, both of high rank.
Take the assignment. as a whole
and It is found that Connecticut's con-
gressmen have large opportunities and
that the state is reaping the benefit of
returning able men to the start of
central government, so long as those
men are competent and willing to give
’ :ches.
