The completed highway runs southerly from Stod- dard's wharf to a point about a mile north of Gales Ferry and is one of the finest pieces of macadam road in’the state. In putting in this piece of roadway, which Contractor Frank Arrigoni, who is in charge of the work. says was one of the toughest jobs he ever struck in his 20 vears of road, building, the men had to cut threugh solid rock in many places and cut down timber in the widening process. The hills have been graded and in some places have been cut down 10 to 15 feet. The road is 28 feet wide, with every banked to insure safety to traffic in passing. With the curves banked a car can round them at 50 miles an hour without danger of overturning, as was shown Tuesday afternoon by Mr. Arrigoni. Already three tons of dynamite have been used in blasting out the road- way and in getting out rock for the roadbed and top dressing. Th: crush- ed stone used is taken from other at the Lewis farm just this side of Gales Ferry. The crusher at the camp is one of the larger, types and is worked steadily every day, Oxt many tons of crushed rom a large ledge where men work Wéth air drills and dynamite in blasting out the rock. crusher is engaged in stone fram the roadway. a5 part now under construction 20 corru- Frank Arrigoni stretch of curve two places, one crusher being located near the camp at Stoddard’s wharf and the turning stone in four At this crusher the stone is he other ding up In the three miles of completed roadway and the gated iron culverts have been put in and ‘four stone culverts have been built. ; The parts now under construction extend for about half a mile north of the completed part and from the drawbridge to the Norwich state hos- pital. The work on the part from the hospital to the drawbridge has only recently been started and the work e« excavating is under way. The road is scraped down level and widened and in many places bad curves are elim- inated. In widening this piece of road it has been necessary to cut down many of the large pine trees that have stood by the roadside for the past 50 years, The contracting company has about 125 men at work and they are quar- tereq in shacks near Stoddard's whart. There are three large shacks for quar- ters and one cook shack and dining hall. There are also shed and stables for the horses. The equipment used in the construc- tion work includes three steam rollers, two stone crushers, one steam shovel, 16 pairs of horses. four five-ton auto- trucks, two sprinklers, two road scrap- ers, wagons and other smaller imple- ments such as air drills, steam drills and road making tools. Mr. Arrigoni stated that the worst piece of the constraction was done and that now the work would progress with even greater speed as the country through which the road is to run is mich easier to work and requires little or no blasting. It is expecteq that the whole highway will be completed before the snow flies. When this highway is completed it will be one of the best pieces of road in_Connecticut and not only that but will be one of the prettiest rides found a here in the state. The road runs t gh wooded land and along the river bank, furnishing a cool and scenie trip. NORV/ICH BOOTLEGGING CASES ARE SETTLED U. 8. District Court Allows Most of the Prisoners Their Liberty.

Bulletins issued from the office of Thomas W. Russell, federal fuel administrator for Connecticut. show that the general fuel situation in this state today is much more favorable to. a ressonably comfortable winter season than any former statements from this source have indicated. Following. on the repod from householders has been decided upon by the national fuel administration to prevent a repetition of last winter's coal shortage. the appearanee of the state administration’s bulletins—which antedate the Washington report—show that the Connecticut fuel officers are on the job. First of all the state fuel office an- nounced that the June shipments of anthracite into Connecticut amounted to 116 per cent. of the standard month- ly shipment based on the promised de- livery of 66 2-3 per cent. of the new feul year's requirements before Nov- ember 1. April and May shipments were not up to the standard, it is true, but the first week’'s record for July shows that the high June record is being continued. There will not be enough house- hold coal available this winter if un- equal local distribution is not pre- vented. The administrative ifficers are sure of that, everywhere. But here in Connecticut it is thought that if pro- per precautionary measures are put in, force early enough—and it seems they have been—the people of this state will not know a repetition of last winter's suffering. 3 According to Washington reports. the new plan of the national admin- istration involves a department of coal allotments in conjunction with each local fuel administrator's office. Plans for this organization have been drawn in such detail that local bureaus may inaugurate them with little delay. Important features of the plan are: First—A close scutiny of every order for coal received by any dealer, the order being compared with a figure obtained by a very simple, yet effec- tive, formula, showing the rating of the house where the coal is to be used. Second—Actual inspection of all doubtful cases and a checking up of the householder’s statements as to coal on hand, the space to be heated and; other details. Third—Refusal to furnish any house- holder more coal than a scientific analysis shows is necessary, if requi- site care be exercised. The present situation in Connecti- cut has cleared to such an extent, however, that no permission from Washington is necessary for the de- livery of prepared sizes of anthricite coal—buckwheat or larger—for the fol- lowing classes of consumers: Domestic consumers. Hospitals. Apartment houses or buildings with tenements above the ground floor. Country. used for governmental purposes. Permission from Washington is nec- essary for delivery of anthracite coal to any factory and is also necessa for any other class of consumers normally consume more than thir tons a year, according to the state ad- ministrator.
