Cattle Dealer Warils Against Estab- lishing a Munijcipal Slaughterhouse. To the Rditor of the Herald: As a taxpayer of the city of New | Britain and a cattle dealer—a busines to which I have directed my efforts for | many years, also in this city—I should | like to express my views on the prac- ticability and advisability of building | municipal slaughterhouse ing this city. I shall attempt, then, in", this communication to view the matter both in the light of a taxpayver afd as a cattle dealer—one who would have | immediate relations with such an in- stitution as a slaughterhouse, it one | were to he set up by the city. It seems that as our municipal ice house has practically proven a failure in the eves of most of the taxpayers of New Britain we should exercise more thought and discretion as regards this “‘Big Tdea” as proposed by a certain few here who plead discase, contamin- ation and all other things that go with discase. It all right to argue dis- | ease and other high sounding phrases that go with it on paper but when the right and the wrong of a‘thing is ut- terly disregarded, it is about time to | call a halt, draw rein and think Here we have built an icehouse. of the city, and for the city. Now we are cutting ice for the city icehouse on Shuttle Meadow Lake which furnishes drinking water for the entire popula- | tion of New Britain. Are the peoble of the city stopping to realize under what conditions the ice is being cut? The thought canl not be put away. The danger of contaminating the water with the excrement of horses and the expectoration from the men cutting the ice is too evident to need further expression here. We have buiit an icehouse, it seems, without giving in the beginning all the attention needed in fhe project. Was the idea of constructing an artificial ice plant for the city considered? Certainly, if this project was more expensive, it was less extravagant and less costly from a matter of health, and cutting ice on Shuttle Meadow with the danger of contamination to the city's water sup- ply and an ineflicient municipal ice system thrown into the poor bargain is clearly unsanitary and wasteful, to say the least. Now that we have a municipal ice- house, the next matter to be consid- ered for our municipality is a muni- cipal slaughterhouse. Here again we must meet the cries of discase and al- so0 congider what such a propect would cost, were it practical and necessary, let us say. Tet us take the matter from the health standpoint. It is said that the city should have a municipal slaugh- terhouse hecause some persons in the city are eating diseased meat which has been slaughtered and sold to the butchers for consumption. As one who is engaged in the business of buy- ing up cattle and having it slaughtered and sold to the hutchers, [ cannot see why under the present system of in- spection, the meat can be sold to the people in a poor conditicn. Most of the slaughtering done in the city is for the use of the Jewish people. Any- one at all conversant with Jewish reg- ulations relative to the butchering of meat will soon discover that the meat must be the rabbi who is doing the butchering will not consent to making the meat ready for these of his flock. Moreover, the city has a system of inspection which covers amply and carefully the point of If the inspection is not strict health. enough, the health board can make it | | | | zood or else Lconomically, the ice house has proven a fallure and judging from the little need that is required of a slaugh- terhouse, this must also prove a fail- ure. Such a construction for public service would cost thousands of dol- lars for building and maintenance. If vou have from ten to twenty head of cattle with a scattering of hogs a week, to be slaughtered, where Is all the revenue coming in to fill the city coffers and pay the cost of the slaugh- terhouse? But this is not all. What about the cattle dealers and the farmers who depend upon the cattle business for a livelihood? With the construction of a municipal slaughterhouse, the cattle dealer will find that he cannot pay the prohibi- tive fees as demanded by the city ana he will have to go out of husiness, Not onlv that alone must be considered. What about the farmer, who is to sell ‘\’ | | Teutons Invaded Old Laon 2,000 Years Ago | at the mill | slaughterhouse Washington, D.

The Normans swept over the town in 882, behind lines base, and the next few centuries saw many another hords of wasters follow the same path.

It 1 well and good to carry this municipal ideal to its final degree and have every kind of a municipal idea such as an icehouse and a slaughter- house and what not, as long you have the word municipal attached to it, but the thing ought to be gone about in proper fashion. Let us just where we stand on this matter and not blunder again as on the ice question. It is my firm opinion that a muni- cipal slaughterhouse will positively not pay.
