Since that time he has traveled all over the United States as a lecturer on sales methods. In 1904 3Mr. Doyle picked up a! boy who needed help, put him on| his feet and started him on the way| to success. Since then more thanj 100 boys have been helped by him, many of them now filling important positions in industry and profes- sions.

Mr. Doyle still retains his com- munity interest in Detroit. He s president of the Majestic Building Co. of that city and is president of the South Detroit Development Co. DESERTS MACHINE 10 OPPOSE CHANGE INMONEY GONTROL (Continued from First Page) measure... First, there is not time to discuss adequately all the sweep- ing departures from our form of government contained in this bill. ‘“This is due to the determination of some prominent members of this legislature who insist on adjourning whether our work is done or not. Should Go To Convention “The bill as proposed constitutes a radical departure from the historic Connecticut form of government to which we owe all our prosperity. It should rightly be submitted to a constitutional convention as it abso- lutely delegates all the powers vest- ed by our constitution in the people themselves in a small group. “This group, in turn, .delegates the power to an executive committee of five who in turn depend upon one salarled official to form their opin- ions. “I object to the wiping out of the board of finance and the right of ap- peal. I object to the wiping out of the committee on state institutions. And last, T object to the whole thing | except to the opportunity to check | and audit all expenditures so that we can have an independent and de- pendable balance sheet to show how we have spent the people's money in the service of the people. Mr. Presi- dent, I move you the rejection of the committee’s report and that the bill be not passed.” Insurance Tax Rejected State Capitol, Hartford, May 3 (/) —The bill returning to ten mills the tax on insurance companies’ stocks as it was prior to 1925 was rejected by the house today on an | unfavorable report of the finance committee after nearly two hours’ debate. The bill was explained by Chalr- man Lavery of the committee. Mr. Alcorn of Suffield said fail- ure on his part to oppose the com- mittee would be a breach of trust. He knew, he said, tremendous forces were at work and the towns | were handicapped in combatting the great influences which are at work. Alcorn’s Opposition Towns were entitled to depend upon the fairness and ship of house members: to defeat the committee report, he sald. He reviewed the history of the tax. He sportsman- | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, MAY 8, 1927. the tax meant $2,000,000 a year. Towns had been schooled for 75 years to depend on this tax now being swept from under them and every time the stock tax went down, the property tax went up and’ hit the small property owner. The tax was not on the com- panies but on ne stockholders, he said, asking that the house not mislead on this. Insurance compan- ies had prospered and covered Hartford with new buildings under the old law. The threat of the| | companies to move was a vainone, | he said, for while New York had| a lower stock tax it had a state income tax and Connecticut, if it continued on the 1925 law, was go- ing directly toward a state income tax. Seck to Avold Tax The ultimate object was no tax at all, he said, predicting that later bills would seek to lower the tax| under -four mills. He asked -thal the house permit the towns and companies to share the burden until ‘the burden of the tax could be fairly worked out. The proponents of the bill were not asking any- thing speculative, he said, but merely that the man who had money to invest in insurance stocks rather than the small property owner be made to pay. | Mr. Alcorn was applauded after concluding his 20 minute speech. Mr. Tuller of Simsbury opposed the committee's report, saying the stock tax was the only state levy on this form of intangible wealth. On income tax should have been levied on intangible wealth when in the tax was too great, he said. the tax was reduced two years ago, | he said. The 60 per cent reduction | Mr. Shattuck of Granby said sta- | which he was traveling to the capitol today. The bill creating the veterans' home commission and establishing certain rights and privileges of vet- | erans and their families was adopt- ed by the senate. In the house, Mr. Southwick of Cornwall objected to the bill giving the higliway commissioner power to buy land “for the efficlent discharge of the duties of his office,” because the language was too broad, he said. The bill was tabled on motion of Leader Averill. Compensation Bill The workmen’s compensation bill, approved by manufacturers and the Connecticut Federation of Labor, was adopted by the senate. It amends the workmen’'s com- pensation law by repealing the amendments of 1919 and 1921 which indirectly covered occupational di- seases, excluding “weakened resis- tance” as a basis for claims. The “apportionment” clause which re- duceéd compensation when a disabil- ity was due to a preexisting disease ds revised. The bill also restricts compensa- tion for the loss of one member when its counterpart has been lost previously to that due for the sec- ond member, requires that claims to be valid, must be filed within one year from the date of the accldent stead of one year from time of dis- ability, abolishes the extra year for filing claims hitherto discretionary with the commissioner, makes two years the filing period for death cases, broadens the scope of the walver to cover disabilities due “in stics of the 25 years the tax had been in effect showed its wisdom. | It is wise and just” to reinstate | the tax, he said. | Mr. Huling of West Hartford maintained the tax was on the company and not on the stockhold ers. | Mr. Pattison of Simsbury, autho lof the bill, sald ten mills was no |an excessive tax. Opponents to th !bill at the hearing, he declared, ha . | been paid representatives of the in | surance companes. Water Diversion Bill Amended to give the board of con- trol and not the governor the power to approve actions of the attorney {general in protecting the state water |supply, the water diversion bill was adopted by the senate after a short discussion. 4 Judges Confirmed The executive nominations of Harry J.

Objects to Bituminous For Police Dept. Use Dissatisfaction with soft coal was expressed at a meeting of the coal purchasing committee of the com- mon council last night, Chief of Police William C. Hart expressing a preference for anthracite and ques. tioning whether soft coal for city use had proved cheaper in the long run. The chief declared more coal had been burned and damage to property and unpleasantness prob- or first symptoms of the disease In- | 5p1y offset the lower prick. For the school system, Supt. Stan- ley H. Holmes declared no objec- tion to bituminous provided a good | grade of coal is procured, but he | found that there is not a uniformity | sumably of quality and hence the danger of dissatisfaction. Chlet W. J. Nob| of the fire department and Secre- tary Willlam G. Dunn of the city hall commission told of the re- quirements for the buildings over which they have jurisdiction.
