Courts Are Oriticized. Senator Balley replied, saying that courts showed poor judgment in send- in0g such women to the farm. Senator Bowers did not believe it would cost a million dollars to run the farm for the next two years or even a hall million. Senator Candee said that as a judge he would not commit a woman thief, plekpocket, burglar or highway wom- an to the farm. IMe would use judg- ment, He moved to table the bill This was lost. There was more de- bate and an appeal by Senator W. H. Hall to try out the !imitation for the next two years. The bill was temporarily tabled aft- er a roll call vote had been granted, in order that the senate could take up workmen’'s compensation law amend- ments, Bill Is Rejected. Later the senate took up the state tarm bill and rejected it, 28 to 6, in non-currence with the house. Those voting for the bill were Senators Goodwin, Trumbull, E. F. Hall, De- Laney, Banks and A. MacDonald. Mr. Molloy of Derby was in the speaker's chair in the house for a time. The salary increase bills were early taken up, that giving Chiet Clerk Elmer H. Lounsbury in the sec. retary of state's office 31,000 more, being adopted, as was an inerease for Tax Commissioner Blodgeit. Opposition to the others quickly showed itself, and one by one the 15 other bills were under fire. It soon appeared unlikely that any others would be acceptable. Sometimes members shouted *no” when voting on hills. Executive Secretary Harry Reynolds listened to the debate. Tt had been reported that the govern- ment would not approve of salary in- creases. Salary Raises Op) Mr. Wells of Bristol nppo«*d sal- ary increases, and especially that for the tax commissioner, from $3,000 to $6,000. Mr. Rogers of New London ex- plained that in this case the com- missioner had served part of the time on a nominal salary. The office will be made full time at a fair salary. Mr. Bell reminded the body that since January it had been talking economy. He opposed salary in- creases. » Mr. Wadsworth of Farmington sup- ported the bills. Mr. Faton sald the total increases would foot up $50,- “000 a year. Mr. Phillips of Shelton doubted if this was the time to raise salarfes, or that valuable services would be lost. Mr. Nickerson, who had led the op- pos'.lon to various appropriations, sald that as things are now he did not believe salaries should go up. Mr. Kilpatrick of Bridgeport said it would, take $100,000 of the pro- posed theater admission tax to pay the proposed increases. The increases in the comptroller's department were voted down. There was a lively exchange of words between Mr. Buckley, Mr. Nickerson and. Mr. Stoddard during the debate. The deputy motor vehicle commis- sloner was denied more salary or more expense money. The deputy bank commissioner next lost out. Oth- er bills were rejected, Dr. Higgins trying to save one for the sheriff of Tolland county Mrfl Buckley's ap- peal for Commiissioner Blodgett won the house in the end. The bill for $100,000 (trimmed from $250,000) for a new armory at Bristol, was sent to the next legisla- ture as unfinished business. Mr. Welles of Bristol made an effort to save it. There was debate but Mr. Buckley argued that it appropriations were to be cut it were better to do it with military measures than to sacrifice on educational or humanitarian projects. The civil dministrative code bill was in the house. As adopted by the sen- ate it provides that appointments should be made by the governor by June 1, an impossibility as even if passed today the bill couldunot reach the governor in time. Favorable reports were in bills for taxation of certain property now ex- empt from taxation and changing some features of taxation of mistel- laneous corporations. A bill to ex- empt certain property in New Lon- don was rejected as was the Dill for $4.000 for repairs on the Greenwich and other armories. QP\TIARVIG ARE ARRESETD.

Miss Mary Lee of Basgett street hoisted the flag, and William Rice of A. G. Hammond camp, United Span- ish War Veterans, sounded. “Colors” as “Old Glory” was unfurled to the breeze. A soldier, a sailor and a marine, each representing a branch of the country’s military service, stood at attention at the base of the flag pole as the flag was raised. Rev. J. L. Sullivan was the first speaker. He reminded those present of the significance of the day and said that jt was fitting that on such an oc- casion that the Knights of Columbus should unfurl the colors to the breeze, for the organization stood in back of the boys and had followed the flag wherever it led, whether in this coun- try or in France. Commander Streeter remarked up- on the appropriateness of the occas- ion, that the exercise is one which stands vividly in the minds of the G. A. R.'who have followed the flag i battle. Postmaster Delaney in his opening remarks reminded present of the significance of the day, saying that as the flag is raised on such an occasion it causes one pause and pay tribute to those who gave themselves that it might proudly continue to wave.
