Andrews of the New Britain Business Mep's associa- tion, has issued a call for the June meeting which is to be held on next Wednesday evening. Many import- ant matters will be taken up for con- sideration and W. F. Brooks, chalir- man of the park commission, has consented to come before the aseo- clation and give an informal address on what improvements are being con- templated for Walnut Hill park. This last matter is not being taken a part of the business of the ciation, but as many of the in- dividual members are interested in the work that is being carried out it was thought to be a good idea to have Chairman Brooks, who is well posted on this feature of the New Britain's activities. give a talk. Re- garding the report in a morning paper that the New Britain Business Men's associution is antagonistic to the park changes President Andrews sald it was entirely erroneous. He said the association is not going to attack these changes, but Mr. Iirooks has been invited to talk because of the interest exhibited by many of the members. Another matter that the associa- tion will take up officially is the half holiday for clerks during the summer months and also the Fourth of July cclebration. In past years the Bus- iness Men's asscciation has been pay ing for the fire works on the Fourth of July nizht and it will prob- ably do the same thing this year. The bhand concerts throughout the sum- mer have been pald for by the fac- tories and it 's expected that the same precedent will be followed this year. AMERICAN BAND CONCERT.

The state board of equalization and taxation considers New Britain so unimportant that two of the mem- bers did not linger to give represent- atives of this city a hearing after they had waited from 5 o'clock yes- terday afternoon until 7 o'clock last evening to protest against the action of the hoard in boosting the valua- tion of the Hardware City by $4,- 000,000 When the New Britain delegation consisting of Mayor George A. Quig- ley, Chairman Burckli:rdt of the board of assessors and Assessors Watson and Bengtson entered the office of the board, Ctairman W. M. Corbin professed to he greatly sur- prised to learn of their presence and said that State Roberts and State Comptroller Dunn, the other members of the board, had gone home, ignorant of the fact that the Hardware city men were cooling their heels outside. Chairman Cor- bin suggested that it might be ad- visable to put off th: conference un- til next Tuesday .hen the board meets again. The New Britain men did not swallow (he suggestion and said they would nold (he conference then and there. A stenographer took notes on the proceedings to pre- sent them to Treasurer Roberts and Comptroller Dunn. 7The affair was of a “star chamber” character, a Her- ald reporter who went to the confer- ence not being admitted by Chair- man Corbin, The New Britain representatives are not loquacious regarding what transpired but it has heen learned that the board increased the valua- tion of local property by $4,000,000 because it believes property here is assessed at only about eighty-six per cent. of its value. ‘The assessors claim to have assessed it for 100 per cent.
