NO MONEY AVAILABLE FOR STREAM POLLUTION COMMISSION According to a statement made at Hartford, after a hearing before the board of control, the new state comm! gion on stream vollution, of which Civil Engineer Shepard B. Palmer of this city is one of the members, hasn't the power to buy so much as a postage stamp. The general assembly having falled to make an appropriation for the commis- sion, Attorney General Healy, when ask- ed his opinion at the hearing on the question of appropriating $20,000 for the work of the commission, made this reply: “This act states specifically that the members of the commission are entitled to traveling expenses upon approval of the board of control, and that is ali Personally, I don’t see how this board has any right to make new appropria- tion for the commission on pollution of streams. As 1 understand the law, it sithply means that upon approval of the board of control the comptroller can draw h's order for the actual traveking ex- penses Incurred.” “This practically make sthe commission inoperative,” said Governor Lake. “I should say so.” declared Chairman C. M. Saville of the commission. “The act says the commission shall make rec- ommendations to the next general assem- bly, but it has not the power to buy pos- tage stamps or do anything at all, and I hardly see how recommendatlons of any value could be made, although I don't doubt but that this commission is willing to do everything in its own - personal power. All the men are willing to give their own time for the good of the state, but even then they can't do some of the minor things.” POSTPONEMENT AGAIN T EXECUTION OF GEORGE RICE The execution of George- Rice, alias John McHenry, of New London, which was to have taken place in Washington Friday, has heen postponed until Jan. 6.

Rice Is wanted in Providence for two hold-ups, in which two men were shot. DENIES ALLEGED STATEMENT ON CONNECTICUT WET SPOTS Chief Prohibition Agent, Jonathan E.
