NEW, BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 1916, TOW’ REILLY BACK T0 SEE OLD FRIENDS . Meriden Man Visits Scenes o Former Triumphs in Washington (Speclal to the Herald.) Washington, April —Former Representative Thomas L. Reilly of Meriden has been here for a day or two and shook hands with old friends, including Representative Kitchin of North Carolina, democratic leader of the house. Mr. Reilly is understood to have told friends that he fully ex- pects to defeat Representative Tilson for re-election this year. According to some members of the democratic national committez Fred B. Lynch of Minnesota is more likely to succeed Chairman W. F. McCombs of the commiitee when he retires im- mediately following the democratic national convention at St. Louis in June, than is Homer S. Cummings of Connecticut, present vice chairman of the committee. However, the selec- tion is not regarded as settled. The choice will rest with President Wilson with whom Mr. Cummings is quite | friendly. < Oakey’s Petition. 5 Representative Oakey presents to house petitions for prohibition meas- ures “by request,” which under the practice and custom here means in ef- fects that he is not responsible for them His latest petition presented to con- gress by request comes from Dr. J. F. Barton of Hartford and is in favor of enacting into law the Gillett bill pro- | hibiting rum exports to Afriea. The bill was referred to the committee on alcoholic liquor traffic, of which the late N. D. Sperry of New Haven was chairman for a number of years. Tilson On Public Roads . Representative Tilson asked some | questions during the debate on the | public roads provisions of the agricul- tural appropriation bill, which brought | out information about the experi- mental work on highway construction conducted by the public roads office of the department of agriculture. His questions and the answers of Repre- sentative Lever of South Carolina. chairman of the agricultural commit- tee and in charge of the agricultural | Dill, were as follow | Mr. Tilson. I wish to ask a ques- tion in regard to the building of sam- ¢ ble roads, as distinguished from the dissemination of engineering ivrforma- tion. The gentleman from Tllinois (Mr. Mann) has spoken of the roads | in the vicinity of Washington, and the gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Lever) has referred to a road down in Arkansas as bei pervision of this department. to ask the gentleman how extens »has work of this kind been carrie < realizing-the fact that the climatic-and soil conditions are different in dif- ferent parts of the country, and that | | the same kind of materials that is | used in Arizona for example, migit | not be the best material in Connecti- | cut or in Pennsylvania, and vice | versa. 7 Mr. Lever. The gentleman must have misunderstood my statement, or 1 did not make it entirely clear. The roads actually built by the Office of Public Roads in the Department of Agriculture are those roads near at hand, to which the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Mann )has referred; one out here by the District line, at Rock- yille, Md., and one at Bradley Lane, Md.; and then they have one under | way In Alexandria County, Va. These roads that have been built in this vi- cinity have been constructed for the | purpose of testing out various and sundry kinds of materials that are recommended for road building. | Mr. Tilson. But you can only test 4hem out under the climatic and other conditions that prevail in the vicin of Washington Mr. Lever. Let me go a little fur- ther. These roads are really the field laboratory of the Office of Public | Roads and they have been concentrat- POST CARPETCO. 219 Asylum St., Cor.
