Over Proposal COMMITTEE 1S APPOINTED téiiimittee Will Confer With Kensing- toi Water Company Directors— Many Hallows’en Events in Progress Lifmprovement Society Meets: What is considered by far the lar- gest and most enthusiastic meeting ever held in the town of XKensington took place last night in St, Paul’s par- ish hall, when the pros and cons of the water question were discussed. TEW hall was crowded not only with men but also with many women. The ‘consensus of opinion was that an ade- quate water system must be had and a committee was chosen to bring in | reports on methods of getting it. The meeting was called to order ghortly after 8 o’clock by First Se- jectmen William H. Gibney. John A. Mogre moved a chairman be chosen Thé general feeling was that a man of parliamentary experience was needed and the meeting chose one who has had much of, George W. Sul- livan. Mr. Sullivan was a council- man in New Britain before coming to Kensington and he showed he is fa- miliar with parliamentary procedure by his efficient way of conducting the megting. The chairman said he would be glad to have all give their opinions on the subject. He then called for nominations for clerk of the meeting. On motion of W. W. Fagan. C. B. Baldwin was appointed to that posi- tion. Dr. Griswold suggested that the chairman call on Selectman Gibney fo¥ information as to the cost of the project. Mr. Gibney has always been in favor of the town having a water supply and has worked hard to bring it about- He had several conferences with the New Pritain water commissioners last win- ter and tried to get them to extend their pipe lines to Kensington. Mr. fiey said he had spoken to City Tongineer Hall about ihe cost of ex- tending the mains ana the latter had told him it would be approximately $20,000. A canvas was made last spring for the purpose of ascertain- ing how many would take the water it it was procured. about 160 fam- ilies agreed to take it at a cost of $12. He thought the town of Berlin would be Zlad to construct 138 fire hydrants. Thbir cost would be $20 per annum. This would be more than enough to pay New Britain for its trouble. Dr. Griswold then spoke on the jghts and privileges of the town to get water. He was of the opinion that some corporation must be formed to get a charter as a borough. He thought the meeting should select a ittee of five to investigate the which is of such vital in- o1 uestion rest. | Mr. Gibney then told of the rights pnecessity of having fered any suggesions against the pro- posed action. remarks with “It will be a great boom for the town and thc people in gen- eral.” with Dr. Griswold having a committee ever the town had no fire protectifn. I it had, the grand list would be in- creased and this would be the means of getting lower insurance rates, Rev. J. C. Brennan took the floor and gave a convincing talk on tI a water supply.

Stevens, J. J. Fitzsimons, ¥ P. Day, R. B. Murray, H. B. Coole C, B. Baldwin, John Carbo, H. San1- ers and A. L. Moffit also spoke in favor of having a water supply and a committee to confer in the matter. The following were appointed as members of the committee: W. H Gibney, chairman; Dr. R. M. Gris- wold, John Carbo, G- W. Sullivan and F. P. Day. The gathering then ad- journed subject to a call by the com- mittee at some future day. Committee Meets. After the meeting the special com- mittee met and decided to arrange a conference with Mr. Loyd, president of the Kensington Water company, | on Monday at 3 p. m., if possible. It | will endeavor to ascertain the atti- tude of the company on the subject, whether it will furnish water, ac- cording to its charter or what objec- tions it has to getting water from New | Britain. If the company will furnish the town with water, acceptablé to the state board of health, nothing will be done about procuring it from New Britain. The committee feels this question is vitally important to: the townspeople and will do every- thing in its power to expedite mat- ters. Hallowe’en Events. A huskin’ bee was held in the barn ' of George Carter last night, there being about twenty friends of Mr. | Carter present. Aside from the piece de resistance of the evening the merry makers enjoyed themselves fishing for apples and in numerous Hallowe'en games. Cider, doughnuts and fixin's were served and the guests voted Mr. Carter a capital host be- fore departing. Mr. and Mrs. George Kron will entertain a party of friends at a Hal- | lowe'en party at their home on I#w- | er Ledge tonight. The Christian Endeavor society of the Kensington Congregational chumh gave a delightful Hallowe’en party in | the church parlors last night. The room was appropriately decorated with yellow crepe paper and lanterns. Games of the season were indulged in. Howard Crane was the lucky finder of the diamond ring in the Hal- lowe’en cake. Refreshments were served. St. Gabriel's Guild of East Berlin held a Hallowe'en social and whist in its hall last evening. A large crowd was present.

However the Kensington team has been victorious in its first game and is determined to keep its slate clean.

Church St., Plainville, Conn.. Inquire Mrs. J. E. Johnson, Plain- | sanatoria for INSURANCE ACT BROKEN BY WAR Lloyd George’s Scilgme for Pro- tecting Working Classes Associated Press ) 20—The partial break- machinery of Insurance Act {Correspondence of London, Oct. the George's famous protecting the working classes against iilness and unemployment is one of the incidents of the upheaval of fin- ancial conditions caused by the war. This scheme, with the old age pen- sions, act, also linked with the name of the former Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, constituted the most impor- tunt part of the program for social reform gathered by the Liberal par- {y. Both schemes were patterned upon the German system. The in- surance act came into effect on the first of May, 1912, and the organiza- tion for its working had hardly been perfected when the war began. Hostile critics of the plan pre- dicted irom the beginning that it would prove a failure. They now declare that the war has only has- tcned the inevitable development, while the supporters lay the blame upon war conditions. Handel Booth, M. P., presiding at a meeting of in- surance experts this week, declared that the position of the act is eri- tical, and others urged that parlia- ment pass an emergency bill to amend it. Prospectice beneficiaries fear that this will mean a reduction of the benefits they were promised in return for their compulsory contribu- tions. Principal Causes for Failure. The employment of a great host of ofiicials, and a huge staff of doctors, together with complications caused by the participation of benefit societies and industrial insurance companies, are held to be the principal causes for the failure of contributions and promised benefits to balance. Four separate commissions, one for each of the four kingdoms and each with a great clerical staff and a cumbersome joint committee, were created for the administraty)n of the act. The sal- aries of officials alone consumed $2,- 500,000 per year; office rentals and stationery expenses also have eaten up a considerable percentage of in- come. Retrenchment in these items the first measure of reform con- sidered, and the amalgamation of the nglish, Scottish and Welsh commis- sions s proposed. On its payment side the Insurance ct provided for contributions of ighteen cents per week for all per- sons earning $3.75 or less. Of this the workman, or woman, paid eight cents, the employed six cents and the state four cents. Free medical attendance at all times, an allowance during sickness of $2.50 per week for men and $1.75 for women for the first three months, and five shil- Iings for permanent disablement wera the principal benefits while a mater- nity allowance of thirty shillings for the mother of each child born was a popular feature. Expenses Exceed Estimates. The simple reason for the failure of the great enterprise to meet the ex- pectations of its sanguine promoters is that expenses have far exceeded the original estimates. The building of consumptives at a cost of $7,500,000, was important fea- ture which has not been realized be- cause of lack of funds to build. The doctars of the United KIngdom have profited greatly through Insurance Act, according to popular belief. In the heginning there was a deadlock ‘\between the government and the Brit- ish Medical Association over the terms of to the official physicians. Those chosen have several hundred people accredited to them, at an annual rate of $1.50 per per- son including drugs to be furnished by the doctors. The compromise gave the doctors a maximum of $2.25 per possible patient. The estimates of the total cost of medical attention under the act were about $8,000,000 for 14,700,000 persons, but the ac- tual results are not known. Before the Insurance Act came into force newly fledged doctors thought themselves fortunate if they could earn from $750 to $1,000 by assist- ing older practitioners, and for this they were expected to work very long hours. Under the act many young men are credited with earning from $5,000 to $7,000, the fortunate ones being those whose surgeries are sit- uated in the poorer class and working s districts. The doctors have a strong counter balancing grievance in the slowness of the government to pay them.
