In ad- liltlon the present session has he- tore it. sixty-seven hills which call for construction of 288.9 miles. the aggregate cost of which would be about 810.184.400.- Thlrty Years Behind That this work ould require. about thirty years tor completion is the estimate made by the highway commissioner at :he present rate or appropriation. The statement. is is- sued by the department of response to requests from members of the Legislature for an analysis of the trunk line situation in Connecticut. It shows that. whereas each sucecd- ing session of the General Assembly has been quick to declare mile after mile of highway to be in the state's trunk line system. no provision for building the same has been forth- coming. The result is that 300 miles r;f,the state's roads now' exist on DID". With no prospect of their being completed within the next fifteen years. The estimated cost of building the uncompleted sections would be 89,604,200. it is shown. At the same time the 286 miles called for in bills now before the Legisla- ture would cost 010,184,400 more to l. t. _ Macadamia Opposes Hurry. Commissioner John A. Macdonald expressed the opinion that it would be an unsound policy for the state to obligate itself at this time tor con- tracts that would not be fulfilled un- til fifteen years hence. He doubted! the wisdom of continuing the policy of declaring roads to be in the trunk line system faster than the state can Doubly build them. and venture the assertion that even if it were pos- sible for the state to complete all thus roads at once it might be a short-stilt“! policy in view of the Med future of traffic re- do. «were; , a as out. that since 1805 “ ', iND‘ EXTRA SPECIAL GENUI’NE“STARTEX” NEW SPRING CURTAINS HBdtIBKWOODchiIDISBIIVLE .81x90' “PEQUOT” SHEETS I magggsfifilfl BLUE EDGE " 6 yards $1.00 2 for 33-00 ‘ ' RUFFLE CURTAINS ........... $1.00 p.

An average of $1,000,000 for this work has been appropriated during the last several sessions. Since 1921, the highway de- partment has constructed about thirty-eight miles of new trunk line roads during each two-year period. Analysis of the figures shows, there- fore. that the average of the work has been $26,000 a ile. Statutes require that trunk line construction be carried on only by direct appropriation by the Legisla- ture. The law directs that receipts from motcr vehicle fees be used only for construction ' and maintenance work. , The proposals advanced to’ the present session are contained in sixty-seven bills. some of whichvcall for additions as high as ten miles. while others ask for fractions of a mile. They aggregate. however. 286.0 miles. It is also shown that. while ap- parently it costs nothing to add roads to the state's trunk line system on paper. under' the statutes the state is required to maintain all I'brldges on trunk lines whether im~ proved ,or unoompleted. and. in the 286 miles proposed at this time. there are many bridges. Inclusion of these highways in the system i would therefore obligate the m to an axiom of about 0100.000 a year to m the mm by «ro- ‘CouRl DECLARES ] Judge Nickerson Or- DOG BOARDERS - .

Feb: 2.".-—-(Speciul to The Sentinel) —— liE-len Hotchkiss Ehlermann. daughter of a former Justice of the Supt-rum court of New York. was yesterday given until April 15. to abolish her fashionable boarding kennels in Stanwick High- way. Greenwich. which last July were declared by Judge “‘illiam )i. Malthio oi the Slipmlor court to; constitute a public nuisance. Thoi kennels were to have been moved. January 1. 1925. if the court's or-I dered had been complied with. but! counsel for Mrs. Ehlermann and theI millionaire residents who sued hei‘T‘i agreed to suspended execution'of the I Judgment until March i. ‘ Mrs. Ehlermann then asked Judge Leonard J. Nickel-son for a further extention of time. on the ground that she could not find a suitable place to transfer her busi-, ness. ' Through Judge Carl F. Foster. her counsel. she appealed for ex- tension untii to June 1. Counsel for the defense vigorously oposed this extension as too long. The latter asked that the extension be made until to ‘April 1. The defense suggested a compro-l misc on May 1 and Judge Nicker-l son said he would split the diner. ence and make it. April 16. In the original injunction suit, it was alleged that noise made by the dogs was a source of annoyance to patients in a. nearby sanitarium owned by Dr. Bowman. ‘ In arguisg against extension of the judgment date. the plaintiff's counsel remarked that "Judge Fos- ter-must remember that we are dealing with sick' persons —— not. dogs." Judge .Fost’er replied. “I'd rather a~thoussnd times deal with the dogs.” ls m. - (Philadelphia Bulletin.) Bobby—"Oh. Mr. Bing. may touch you?" . Mr. Bing—"Certainly.
