NEED $20000,000 FOR STATE ROAS Bils Pas Aoy But Yo Moty Is Gratd Hartford, Feb, 24.—~An outlay by the state of approximately $20,000,- 000 \would be required to complete the ‘present trunk line highway system already projected and build the additions proposed in bills now before the general assembly, it was revealed in a statement issued yes- terday by the state highway de- partment. About 600 miles of road- way are involved, That this work would require about 30 yeare for completion Is the estimate made by the highway com- missioner at the present rate of ap- | propriations. The statement is issued by the department. in re- sponse to requests from members of the legislature for an analysis of .the trunk line situation in Connecticut, It shows that whereas each succeed- ing session of the general assembly has been quick to declare mile after mile of highway to be in the| state’s trunk line system, no pro- | vision for building the same )ius been forthcoming, The result m‘ that an aggregate of 300 miles ul, the state's roads now = exists on | paper, with no prospect of their lrr | ling completed within 15 he estimated cost of building l!\c juneompleted sections would be $9,604,200, it Is shown. § At the ame time the 286 miles called for in Lills now before the legislature ould cost $10,184,000 more to con- struct, Questions Assembly's Judgment In commenting on the facts, ommissioner John' A. * Macdonald xpressed the opinion that it would e an unsound policy for the state 0 obligate itself at this time for ontracts that would not be fulfilled ntil 15 years hence. He doubted he wisdom of continuing the poley pt: declaring roads to bhe in the runk line eystem faster than the te can possibly build them, and d the assertion that even if | poneulm or _the state to roads at once l\ ghted policy in | v of the undetermined future of aflic requirements, It is pointed out t he general assemb) 1ed a total of $10,950,000 for trunk ing construction.. -An average of 1,000,000, for this work has been | fppropriated during the last several | wssions, i y lepartment has stricted abou niles of New trunk line roads during ach two-year period. Analysis of he figures shows, thereforg, that the ge cost -of the work 26.000 a mile, Statutes require that trunk line ofistruction’ be carried on only by cct appropriation by the | ure. The law directs that n rom motor yehicle fecs he used only or reconsgruction and, maintgnance vork. Tho proposals advanced to th present’ sdssion are ‘contained in 67 ills, somag; pr ‘which call for ad- itiops ag” high as 10 miles, while | thers ask for fractions of «a mile, | [hey aggregate, however, 36,9 | niles, | has appropri- | has been Must Maintain Bridges It is also shown that while, appar- ntly, it costs nothing to add roac p the etate’s trunk line system on oj o And Molher said: [’: “You may get a packa, iy s\l (o ), Aleading dentist states dutcl::: i m cl d“w‘ksa"fln-dm as a mild anti- septic in the " mouth.

J. O'Connell and D, W. 0'Con- nell, applicants for a permit to con- duct a gasoline filling station at 393- 399 West Main strect, were given leavé to withdraw by the board of | publi¢ works at a meeting last night. The board had previously taken flled by Charles McCarthy, who con- ducted a’ filling station for several years on the O'Connell site and who now plans another etation on the property next east. In the opinion of members of the poard and residents | of . that' neighborhood, another sta- tion is not needed to serve the pub- lic and would create an unnecessary hazard. An opinion was received from Cor- poration Counsel John H, Kirkham in_which the city's legal adviser ex- plained the function of the board to be that of submitting a recommen- motor vehicle commission, and unfavorable action would not make the city liable, A letter was received from Judge B.
