week in Hartford increases from $50
to $100 the amount to be paid by
the state annually per pupil for
transportation to trade and other

numerous other cities and towns
are expected to benefit from the
bill.
The present law limits the $50
payment to transportation to trade
schools. It likewise specifies that
the pupils must be between the ages
