Westport Town Meeting Votes on New Bridge Plan
Westport voters will convene Thursday evening to decide on a proposed new bridge in Saugatuck to replace dangerous highway curves. The plan, by State Highways Commissioner Charles Bennett, would cross the Squawtuck river below the railroad bridge, saving road distance and avoiding five sharp curves. They will also vote on road appropriations, town charities, and whether to accept Bradley Street as a public highway. Property acquisitions for the state road and other related items may be discussed.

Supreme Court Invalidates Federal Child Labor Law
The Supreme Court struck down the 1920 Child Labor Act, ruling it violated state police powers by taxing to regulate employment of children in mills, canneries, factories and workshops. Chief Justice tainted the decision as a restraint on federal taxing power, noting the act aimed to prohibit rather than tax. The ruling ends federal enforcement and discontinues the Child Labor Bureau.
