NORWICH BULLETIN, FRI o DAY, MARCH 27, 1914 FORMER WESTE RLY' MAN DEAD End Comes to Busy Life of Nelson Byron Vars, 82, Once a Norwich Resident—Woman’s Exchange and Visiting Nurse Association in New Quarters—Reception For Con- gregational Pastor and Wife. e The property qualification act, which carried with it referendum, and which was a plank in the republican as well as the democretic state platforms, was defeated In the senate Wednesday, Senator Louis W. Arnold, of Westerly, voting for the measure. The vote was 18 to 21. The closeness of the vote in- dicates the motive of the resolution presented by President Albert . Langworthy at the recent meeting of the Westerly town council, = which practically instructed the Westerly delegation in the Rhode Island general | assembly to work and vote against the measure. Mr. Langworthy is one of the representatives from Waesterly and stated that he was unalterably opposed to the proposed change in the | constitution. He said the propeosition would be favored in the house, and there was fear of its passage in the| senate. He advocated the unanimous | passage and the resolution he present. | ed. intimating that its passage would | ezse matiers for the Westerly dele- gation, meaning Senator Arnmold and iacideatally Representative Joseph T. Murphy who favored the measure. H The impression that the resolutions were recommneded by the local dele- gation was removed when Councilman | Maurice W. Flyua put the direct ques- tien if Senator Aronld had knowledge of the resolution, and when Mr. Lang- worthy replied that the senator did | not ask for the presentation of the resolution and did not know of its e istence. Mz Flynn suggested that i asmmch zas the senator had asked for instrnetion, it was folly to adopt any such resolution, as the senator S em- intntly qualified to get it for himself and for s constitueney af the proper time. While the sentiment of the town eouncil was against expungment of the property qualification clause in the con- | stitution. and against referendum, no | action was ifaken on the resolution, { The report of the expert road build- | er sent to Westerly by the federal ag- ricultural department upon invitation | of the Westerly town council at the | behest of the Westerly Board of Trads, | 1o suggest 2 more eflicient method for tire condact of the highway depart- ment of the town, is mot yet ready for public distribution.

Those retained are Ismar Baruch of New London, who has relatives in Nor- wich; Ralph L. Blanchard, George H. LaRoe, William A. Needham, Robert Quinn, Samuel H. Workman, Harry B, Dow and Joseph L. Strickland. Baruch, Workman and Needham were members of the Brown debating team which lost to Dartmouth in the recent Triangular league debate.
