PULLUTION BILL IS " DECIDED AS UNFAIR (Continued from First Page) form discriminates sharply agalnst what may be termed the country manufaeture Most ity factories| do not pass thelr waste directly inte the streams of the state but empty it into eity sewers from which it finds its way into the streams mixed with miscellaneous sewage of he elty. This substitute eovers only direct| drainage and omits the city sewe :lh!fh were covered by the origin N This works a hardship on the country manufacturers and an in- equality. It means that a ecotton factory situated in Hartford or New Haven may frealy let its waste flow into the eity sewers and so ultimately inte the Connecticut river or New Haven harbor, while a cotten faetory employing the same number of peo- ple 1ocated, 16t us say, in Manchester or Beriin, and which has no eity sewerage system avallable, may be forced hy this bill to go to hundreds of thousands of dollare of expe Thus the country cotton factory is directly handicapped in competition with the eity cotton factory, Indeed the country factory might have to| operate at a loss and ultimately ahut , while the city factory would remaln unhampered, my judgment a bill which oper- unequally is bad law, I great. ly regret that this important subject should not have made greater pro- gress. Its faflure must be laid to the eleventh hour rejection of a com- promise measure which represented the unanimous judgment of A state commission and had the consent of the manufacturers and shell fish rep- résentatives. Rather than proceed along the unsound lines of this prea- ent bill in my opinion it is better Lhat the matter should rest in abeyance in the hope that the common sense ahd g00d will of all concérned will pre- vail two years from now to give the state a sound law working fairly and equally in all direction PRIEST ASKS SQUARE DEAL FOR NEW IMMIGRANTS Rev.
