Times were hard. much more so than they are now, and there were many idle men in the ecity. The same argument was offered as is now being offered hy Mavor Quigley that it would be muech better to make public in provements and pay men for their labor than it would to have them he- come public charges, the city payving ior the support of themselves and their families’ while they were out of work. Whether the argument was sound or not the city meeting au- thorized the appropriation, but when the meeting was over it 4 that the banks much money market and jt v impossible any honds. The. sewer comm «rs announced that the city would pay per cent. on temporary loans. which was more than the banks were paving and people who had money on deposit withdrew their savings, loaned it Lo the city and the sewers were built. A peculiar feature of the transaction was that when at least two persons went for the money bank handed it out in ver dollars, one bag containing fifteen hundred of them, making a load that was difficult carry and requiring a team to transport it to a place where it could te paid out to the man who had earned the money. At the end of six months the money market improved so that $50.000 in sewer bonds issued and the six per cent, loans were paid off. Some of the bonds were sold at par but the last lot brought a premium. This undertaking brought into the service a number of men who had never done any outside work in their lives and it is doubtful if the sewer work was performed as cheaply ag when it was done by the men who had been regularly engaged at it. city pald $1.75 per day and a more so completed men who A simils was the sell of to S0 on account 1 - rix to ‘What would have been done had no appropriation been made s of course difficult, to say, but that many familles were saved from serious finanoial conditions. The demand, however, for assistance from the city at present is not by any means as pressing as it was during the hard times of twenty odd years ago. Superintendent Hart of the charity department says that the ap- plicants for aid have not materially increased of late, in fact he says that there have been but two applica- tions received, which does not show any particular reason for extraordi nary action on the part of the city. An extra appropriation for streets now is liable to result in a small appro- priation next year unless the admin tration is willing to boost up the tax rate. The fact that the city is serlously considering providing employment for | men who are out of work is indicative of the interest municipalities are tak- ing in their citizens. People often- times stop on the street to listen to a soclalist orator and deride his argu- ment, but they do not stop to think that the ideas expressed are often put into practice by men who regard sociallsm in its triue sense s thing to he dreaded. New now has a municipal water works, municipal ice and its street and sewer work are performed by the city. These things are not new. Once in a while it is necessary to have a sewer It by contract in erder to expedite niatters and to have a street maca- damized or paved under similar con- ditions, but while the amount of work done this way is growing smaller every year it will disappear altogether when the city ascertains just what kind of Brit pavement it prefers to all others and | can provide a plant with which to do the work that Is now done by contract, When the appropriations were being made up this year the hoard of finance allowed the hoard of public werks a large sum and if an effort is made to obtain another appropriation the members may not feel like voting for it on the ground that a sufficien’t sum was given in the first place. The argument that is being offered for a further appropriation sounds sensible enough provided' that the city is ready and willing to stand for one-half or three-quarters of a mill on the tax rate. There may be objection at a ty meeting to the raising of the tax und a debate precipitated that might disturb the equanimity of the adminis- tration. Just how much New Britain should spend in a year on streets dependent of permanent pavement, may be a question but it seems as If a hundred thousand doll might reasonably bhe considered a suflicient The present tax rate is sixteen half mills and an appropriation 1y $25.000 more, not to mention $60,000, will fncrease it to approxi- mately seventeen mills which rather. high figure, if it lected this vear. This ever, has not been discussed but it will be if the proposed nppropriation is asked for. There is some evidence that Mayor Quigley's first yvear office will not be remarkable for any great progress in general. Reports are heing made from time to time of friction which ought not to he and which must necesearily be to the dis- sdvantage of some officials no mat- ter how hard they work or how cave- tully they apply themselves to %3 the tax should be increased it is hound to cause dissatisfaction and if there shouid he another appropriation made for street work now and a cut i it next year that too will arouse a feeling which the city can wery well do without A tax that might be laid rew would probably not be made col- lvetable until next July but in the meantime the city would have to bor- a which | arger this year is calling | ting and appropriating $25,- | found | were unwilling to loan | the | were | The | very | larze number were given employment. | but there is no doubt | in- in | ow the money, the city ste for it until the tax it has to be paid this ean a 1ate of seventeen There has been at least provement made this year for the street department is to he n- | mended, and that is the repairing of | the outside st which result- ed in the opening up of | the placing of building market and giving an opportunity people to acquire a home without | Peing compelled to pay as much tor site for a house as land and building should cost considerable sum must have he those improvements, grades have been changed, sidewalks have been laid out and the roadway placed invit- ing condition. 1t i outski | now that city must | growth and if young people are to provided with homes the city musi do its part in making the new sectiong attractive, It is understooa | that a large tract of land now used | for farming purposes close to the center is soon to be opened for build- ing purposes and within year or New Britain will probably perience a building boom such has never had before.
