e ——————————— FIVE TOWNS GIVEN POWER T0 ELECT Population Tncrease Permits Action Before Certification Hartford, Aug. 21 (P—An opin- ing has been given by First Assist- ant Attorney General Raymond A. Johnson to Deputy Secretary of N State E. H. Lounsbury, that the five towns which have passed the five thousand mark in the recent census and which haye had only one mem- ber of the house of representatives may elect two members this fall. A copy of a letter which Mr. Johnson ‘will write will go to town chairmen in the:towns affected by the decision and which benefit until the increase in population. The towns are East Haven, Darien, Gris- wold, New Canaan and Plainville The opinion of the attorney gen- eral's office means that in the fi towns given, the representative con- ventions of all parties may make an additional nomination. overlooked that East Haven in New Haven county has gained a seat in the lower house as its population jumped from 3520 to 7858 as pre- viously announced by the Associat- ed Press in its tabulation of towns of the state. The fact is also con- firmed by the 1930 state register and manual. which gives the compilation of towns based on the preliminary figures, as the final of- ficial figures will not be issued from Washington for another month Beck their seats, they will be admit- ted by reason of certification of the census in their respective towns. The opinion of Mr. Johnson, how- ever, which holds as good as law un- til upset, paves the way for election of the five and gives them a valil reason for application for secats Twenty Years ago when extra repre- of the 1910 census there was much uncertainty in the house as to a mission of the applicants because upon previously and it was though! by some that towns had gone ahead and elected an extra member with- out legal warrant. In the end the | additional members took their seats and the flurry was over. The 1931 house will number 2 members as against 262 for the past decade, LAKE COMPOUNCE The §t. Oronzo society of Bris will celebrate their annual feast at Lake Compounce / night, August 23, when a great program, including a mammoth fireworks dis- play and band concerts, will be staged. The fireworks exhibition will include all the popular special- ties and is expected to be one of the most spectacular ever held by the Ttalian society at the Bristol park Many brilliant moving and station- ary pieces are being planned and a great supply of rockets and bombs has been ordered. tol, the Bristol amusement resort and it is thought probable that a record throng will attend the event this year. Two band concerts will precede the fireworks display. The concerts will be lengthy ones. with elaborate and varied programs including pop- ular music. McEnelly's orchestra will be at the Eake Compounce ballroom Sunday night when another of the popular week-end dances will be held. There will be no advance in prices and visitors at the park may ecpjoy the music of the well known ballroom artists. Few orchestras have made greater hits in Connecticut than Me- Enelly’s group and an excellent pro- gram has been prepared for their sit to the Bristol park Sunday night.
