The 62nd General Assembly of the

Nearly 300 commissioners, equally d1-

HARTFORD. May 5.—C_onnecticut
motorists spent approximdtely $7.—
500.000 for gasoline in six months. it
was rc3caled by figures made public
yesterday at the motor vehicle de-
partmunt. As these figures included
all of the winter months. when op-
eration of motor yehciles is at a
minimum. it is likely that the report
for the next six months. taking in the
summer months. will show an annual
expenditure. in li'tis state of over $20,-
1’.on,00'1 for gasoline.
An idea of the magnitude of this
estimated annual expenditure may be '
gained by consideration of the fact
that his nearly equivalent to the
amount required to pay the. operat-
ing expenses of the entire state gov-
crnment. including all of the large
institutions and other departments,
for two_years. The last session of the I
Legislature appropriated about 826,-
000,000 for the state‘s current expens-
- r two years. and the records in
the cities or Comptrlol or Haney P.
Dissell show that. at the rate of ex-.
penditures to date. there uill be a
considerable balance at the end oi‘1
the two-year period.
If the 320,000,000 estimate shouldi
prove to be correct, the states in-i
come for the first year on account of!

is figured that an avers re of 26 cents
a gallon was charged in Connecticut I
for the gasoline sold during these'
months. The big drop ln‘January re~
