Recommends Eliminating One of Four Either Clayton Crossing, the Ber- lin turnpike crossing or the Middle- town branch, or one of twp crossings near Saybrook junction have been recommended for elimination at once by the public utilities commission. In a letter to E. J. Pearson, president of the New Haven rallroad, the commis- siof recommends improved automa- tic signal devices at 18 other cross- ings including the South street cross- ing, New Britain, and the immediate elimination of one of the four follow- ing: Berlin turnpike crossing, Berlin turnpike, state highway, also about 7.62 miles from Middletown station at brickyard on line between Berlin and Middletown. Clayton's crossing, so-called, in the town of Newington, on the line from Hartford to New Britain. The crossings near Saybrook junc- tion consolidated into: one overhead or subway crosaing. Must Change Many The statutes require the elimina- tion of at least one grade crossing for every 50 miles of road evesy year. This law has not been enforced since before the war, a temporary. suspen- sion having been granted by the pub- lic_utilities commission. This leaves the company ue cross- ings behind its schedule. The sta- tute enforced to the.letter would re- quire the elimination of 19 crossings per year, including two on the Cen- tral New England. It is figured that the present cost of eliminating a grade crossing approximates $50,000 and a compliance with the law to the letter would run into the millions and away beyond the financlal resources of the company. Signals Needed Following is a list of highway crossings in the state which, in the opinion of the commission, should be protected by the highest type of au- tomatic visible and audible signals.

Nomina- tion of Carmi A. Thompson of Cleve. land would decide in favor of prohi- bition and the national administration success of Congressman C. L. Knight of Akron or Danfel W. Willlams, Jackson publisher, would mark vic- tory for the progressive. A victory by C. Homer Durand, Coshoctong at- torney, would he a repudiation of the Volstead act and an endorsement of restoration of light wine and beer. Smith Lively Opponent. Nomination of Harvey C. Smith of Zanesvlle, present secretary of state, would also be a rout for both adminis- tration forces and the anti-saloon league. Smith drew the opposition of the administration forces early in 1920 when as the state's chief elec- tlon officer he refused to limit the Harding candidates for delegate to the national convention to those hav- ing approval of the presidential can- didate. He has been classed as a “‘wet” by the dry organization which urged its followers to support other candidates preferably Thompson on the ground that he was the strongest. Defeat of either Senator Atlee Pom- erene, for renomination on the dem- ocratic ticket, or of Congressman 8. D.

Lentz of Columbus against Senator Pomerene, and with former Senator Charles Dick of Akron against Congressman Tess. The prohibifion issue became more even intense on the eve of the bal- loting by the filing of a proposed con- stitutional .amendment with the sec- retary of state calling for restoration of light wine and beer. The democratic contest for governor has failed to bring out clear cut is- sues among the three candidates, for- mer State Auditor A, V. Donahey, who was the nominee in 1920; former State Supreme Court Justice James G Johnson, and Thomas J. Duffy, chair- man of the state industrial commis- sion.
