Bridgeport to Keep CT customs office under reform plan
Washington reports that Bridgeport is likely to remain the head office for the Connecticut customs district under the July 1 1912 reorganization. McAdoo and administration oppose any change, arguing the plan centralizes administration and eases tariff implementation. Supporters of alternate cities fear slighted claims, but a House reversal is deemed unlikely. Senator McLean pushes bills aiding Alice Morse and Mrs. Jarvis Williams for Civil War era losses. Representative Lonergan returns to Hartford to review department heads and possibly Alaska duties for his territories committee.
