Councilman Riordan. our represen-
tatives and senator and others tor,

hard on the proposition.
Mayor Robins said: ~
"A year ago we went over our
system with the Iliflaway Commis-
sioner and showed him what was
wanted. \Vc had a. letter saying
that state aid could, not be granted
for East avenue. but I did ml. stop
then. I went in for what. i though
'svas right andé‘ioliowed the matter
up in many ways. “'6 fought against
great odds. a,
“In the 1 two months several
members of the Board of Estimate
and Taxatibn have spoken to me
about the matter and urged me to
call the board together to appro~
priate the money for the paving or
East avenue. because we hadn't rd-
ccived state aid. I knew that the
taxpayers would have to pay the
extra 870.000 and I didn't do it. bc~
cause 'I felt certain that. we would
receive state aid.
'We had the Committee on Roads
and Bridges here and they went over
the roads, and they were all fine
fellows. .
"I don’t know or anyone that had
done more toward securing the aid
than Representative Charles Wil-
limson of Barton. A great deal of
credit is due this man tor his ei-
torts- in securing the money."
Councilman Michael Riordan said:
“Personally. and I feel “in *1! ll
the sentiment of the rest of the
Council, we are very thanktul to
the Mayor and others tor securlns
the aid. 1 think that this work
should; be started at once. At the
. Board 0: Es-
timate and Taxation. 890.000 was ap-
proprlated tor the paving or the
street. providing that we received
state aid. Now that we have re-
ceived thsstate aid. I think that we
should start on the wot-kl!
Mayor Robins declared thst the
money was ;not available. so the
board would have to npproprlsts
the remaining 372.000. He also said
that. there wer‘o.msny other matters
that had to be straightened out be-
tore the work was started.
Councilman Riordan remarked
that it the board waited until the
June meeting to appropriate the
money it would not be available un-
til September and that would be too
late to complete tho work this year.
The street will be paved Irom curb

est turnout-o: Connecticut G. A.‘. 12.2
in a number of years. was registered
yesterdayiat the 58th annual cnq
campment at. the Strntfield hotel.
Approximately 100 veterans from all
parts or; the .State were on hand.
Their average age was computed to
be 82.4 years. the oldest veteran was
93 years. and the youngest 75 years.
The spirit thdt won the Civil
War is still dominant in \Vllliam. A.
iiendrickso'n ot Naugatuck. who
demonstrated it by attending the‘
encampment though now in his
”rd year. Judge; Advocate James
Hoggcrty of \i‘illimantic.‘ was into
youngest man present with '35 years ,
on his brow. but bubbling over with
life and good nature. Hiram Davis
of Ridgelioid was‘ second youngest
veteran at the .cncampmént. with
but a tow months separting him
from Hsggeriy.
It was reported that the encampo»
mom. would probably be the last one
ever held. Considerable seniirnent
was aroused yesterday among the
younger G. A. R. men against the
abandonment. and it is probable
another will be how in 1926.
