A public hearing was held in the United States engineers’ office in the post office building at Wew London at 1:30 on Monday afternoon to consider the minmum clearance to be required in the interest of mavigation for an aerial, high tension transmission wire, which the Eastern Connecticut Power Co. proposes to _install across the Thames river at Montville. The hear- ing was held before Col. S. W. Roes- sler, in_charge of the engineers’ office. The Eastern Connecticut Power Co. proposes to furnish power to Groton and intermediate points, including the submarine base, running the high ten- sion wires across the river at Mont- ville. The application of the company was to place the wires,150 feet' above the water level. There were present representatives of the company and of shipping and the Norwich chamber of con.merce and thy considered that 150 feet was too low to permit of the passage under- neath of four and five masted vessels. They declared that 175 feet should be the minimum. This met with no op- position from the representatives of the Eastern Connecticut Power Co., and it was accepted. Colone] Roessler will make this re- commendation to the war department for action. Frank J. King attended the hear- ing, representing the Norwich Cham- ber of Commerce, Charles E. Lamb, representing H. F. & A. J. Dawley, and Attorney Albert [. Bailey repre- senting_the Chappell Co. The height asked fo&r in their pe- tition by the power company was 125 fett, but when Mr. King stated that the Norwich merchants felt that 175 would be the right height, the com- pany amended their petition so that they asked for 150 feet. There will be one pier in the river to support the power transmission line. ST. ANDREW’S FLAG. Names Represented by 33 Stars on Colchester Church’s Service Flag.
