ROSSBERG FIGHTS HARTFORD SCHEME FOR WATER RIGHTS (Continued From First Page) kindly to surrendering all -their rights in their own system without some voice in its management. If both the cities in this proposed acheme could come to some cquitable agreement by which both Hartford and New Britain and even Meriden, Middletown, Southington and Bristol would have power in the same. it would certainly be more agreeable to New Britain than to have the same under complete control or authority of Hartford. Apparently the fair a combined control of this kind woula Lie a community proposition, in other words, towns to have equal repre- sentation. “Have a joint hoard of water com- missioners say of six members or more having all this section of the state properly represented and ap- pointed by their respjective appoint- ing powers. he same elect eir chairman, secretary, engineer, clerk, superintendents, assistants, etc. Ticonomies by Cooperation “1f Hartford, New Britain and the other communities mentioned can get together and this metropolitan scheme relating fo water supply is adopted, undoubtedly great ecomo- mies could be effected. for large reservoirs are under almost all con- ditions more efficient than small, for water impounded in large quantities naturally cost much less per unit “At a hearing 2t the capitol last March before the cities and boroughs committee of the state legislature when Hartford asked for the right to develop the east branch of the Farmington river one question asked of Mr. Saville, their chief engineer, ! was: ‘What would he the cost of the proposed development?’ | “Mr. Saville replied the total cost | of this improvement complete would [be about $8,000.000 for impounding he 25,000,000,000,000 gallons. “When this statement is compared with the report of Engineer Allan Hazen to the New Britain board of | water commissioners of I"ebruary 14, 11920, in which he states the cost of |increasing the water supply of New | Britaig 4.600.000.000 would he $4.- 796,500 (though $830,500 of this was to be used for filters) ti will be secn | at once that advantage is with large | concentrated supplics.

If Hartford must have the vight to develop the east branch of the Farmington river we should not oppose them if they will let us have the Nepaug. To an impartial outsider 11 think this would be a fair division. But whatever may be the outcome of this matter the people of the City of New Britain should never surren- der their rights in the development of either or both branches of the Farmington river without propor- tionate compensation. * “For all this section have rights in and to the potable waters of these streams and they should be conserv- ed for its inhabitants and not given to the complete control of any other [ city or community. STATE RESTS CASE AGAINST DR. SNOOK (Continued From First Page) emotional stimulants alleged to have been given the girl by Dr. Snook, the keys to their room and several other articles. Defense to Proceed Columbus, O.. Aug. 6§ (UP)—The cvidence by which the state expects to convict Dr. James Howard Snook of the murder of Theora Hix was completed toda The defense issued sumnionses { vesterday for a list of character and other witnesses and is ready {0 pro- ceed with its testimony. ~ Marion Meyers, former farm crop agent for the university who claims to have| shared Theora's favor with Snook, was among those summoned. At yesterday afternoon’s session | W. C. Howells and James E. Fusco, | reporters for the Cleveland Plam | Dealer and the Columbus Citizen, re- | spectively, recounted in detail an in- view they had with Snook which | covered even more ground than the | signed confession. The defense Is prepared to attack the signed con- fession with evidence designed to £how it was not voluntary and charges that “third degree,” meth- cds were used. Such an attack can- | not be leveled zs effectively against | feh newspapermen’s recitals which, | the state claims, amounted to a ver- | bal confession. Believes Proof Complete The state, by the cvidence it has introduced thus far, has ofterea what it considers proot that Miss Hix was murdered with Dr. Snqok's Lnife and hammer; that he admit ted to two newspapermen that he Villed the girl; that he deliberately cut her throat, and that the killing grew out of a quarrel during which she threalened the safety of his wife wnd family. | Further it has offered evidence | that she had been given {wo power- | tully stimulating drugs and that the | | tion and form of — e ‘ the failure of subsequent legislatures {to enact these measures into law.

Comsiders Fundamentals “The havoc which might ensué if the validity of some 1500 acts, which have been published as laws of the state, is questioned, justifies my con sidering with you the fundamentals lof our government. Particularly is this true when full faith and credit has been given these laws by the United States and the other states of the union. These laws, all of which have been published znd certified to | by the secretary of the state and some of which have been construed by our courts, have furnished the basis of proceedings in several other jurisdictions. “Let us commence with amble of our constitution— ‘The people of Connecticut nowledging with gratitude, the providence of God, in having per initted them to enjoy a free gov ernment, do, in order more effective- iy to define, secure, and perpetuate the liberties, rights and privileges which they have derived from thei. ancestors, hereby, after a careful the pre- ack- 800 a au- same drugs were found to be either in the possession of or casy of ac- | cess to Dr. Snook.
