Plan. for Taking Lurks Delegation
From Connecticut Aro Abandoned
A scarcity of tickets of admission to
the Democratic national convention to
open in Baltimore June 23 has discour-
aged many Democrats in Connecticut
from making definite plans to attend
the convention.
The original intention to make up
a special train. as proposed by John
DeVlcq. of the Democratic headquar
ters of New Haven. has now been
abandoned.
Senator A. McNeil. jr.. of this city.
one of the delegates said today that
he had been advised by the national
committee representative that a very
limited number of tickets would be
allotted to each delegatswttrobably
not more than three.
Senator McNeil said, “i have just
received word from our committee-

would suggest that people be discour-

ces are that the bulk of those ‘going
