of thc measures that once again
some members are asking the reason
why.
Another most unfortunate factor in
stirring up opposilion to the bills is p
the conduct of members of the spe-
cinl commission. No one as yet ques- .
lions theirmotlves. but all attack
their judgment. .
That this criticism hurts the feel-
ings of the members of tho commis-
sion is apparent. One of the best
known said today. “They call us all
villains. And that is what you get
for trying to serve the state." 1
Those who heard this expression)
lealized that this man did the best
he knew how. But he. like a major
ity of the commission. seemed to
completely forget that there is a
pllbllc side. and that. much as the
commission may think it. ninedcnths
of the people of Connecticut do not
agree with their view about the trol-
leys.
