'BURLDERS' LICENSE PLAN WEAKENING Only Posting of Liability Bonds b The suggestion that contractors be required to submit to an examina- tion and be licensed may be with- drawn by the New Britain Master Builders’ Association, and a recom- mendation made that liability bonds be required, members having ex- pressed a belief that this is a more practical scheme. A committee has been appointed to seek & hearing before the or- dinance committee Friday night for the purpose of outlining the plan now being urged. On the commit- tee are Israel Wexler, A. D. Clifford, Frank H. Dohrenwend, C. Ernest Carlson and K. L. Johnson. It is pointed out that the bond will furnish prospective home owners with the necessary protection, while inability on the part of unscrupulous contractors to secure bonds will au- tomatically put them out of business. This plan will also eliminate the possibility of protest against the type of examination given and charges of favoritism on the board of examiners, the contractors believe. | MRS.

Dwight Music Co. 119—121 CHURCH STREET 24 MILLIONS TO ENFORCE STATUTE (Continued from Page 16) agencies being used hy the govern- ment in enforcement.” Views Vary Washington, Jan. 23 UP—Widely varying views of the proposal to place an additional $2¢,000,000 in the hands of the president for prohibi- tion enforcement were expreased by house membera today as they await- ed opportunity to consider the senate’s approval of the fund. Representative Cramton, of Mich- igan, an outspoken republican dry and a member of the appropriations sub-committee which will consider the matter, was opposed to the pro. posal and Representative Byrna, of Tennessee, ranking democrat on the committee, favored it. | At the same time, Representative La Guardia, a New York republican and an outspoken wet, favored it and | prepared a speech to show how the money could be used. Cramton declares he did not see the necessity for the appropriation. “The senate seems to be getting hysterical,” he said. “I think appro- priations for prohibition should be on the same basia as are all other appropriations. A need for the money should be shown and the de-| partment should be prepared to point out to the committee just how : it is going to be spent. Mr. Hoover will have to spend most of this money anyway, and it seems to me that we should wait a while and see what he thinks about it." Byrns declared he would support | the amendment on the theory that | the law was on the statute books | and should be enforced. “Testimony before the committee indicated that there was not enough | money for enforcement,” he said. | “Coast guard officials said they were not able to prevent smuggling on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts and that they were doing practically nothing on the Pacific coast. There should be provided sufficient money to en- ' force the law and not afford the en- | forcement authorities an alibL.” La Guardia, who in the past has proposed several amendments to raise the amount for enforcement, sald he proceeded on the theory that if the law is enforced, the people will | force either a repeal or modification of it. Representative Wood of Indiana, ranking republican on the appro- priations committee, supported the view of Cramton, declaring that the department had said that it could not use the money. He characterized the amendment as “the most foolish thing I ever heard of sensible men doing,” and predicted that the house would reject it.
