Just one argument was raised against the budget and it a drive that was unexpected. Attorney P. F. McDonough was the man behind the oratory and he unslung his gun at | the municipal slaughter house propo- sition and kept its defendents busy for nearly three-quarters of an hour. The meeting began promptly at 8 o’clock with Mayor G. A. Quigley pre- siding. City Clerk A. L. Thompson read the warning, which called for ac- | by | the common council and the fixing of | a tax rate of fifteen mills for the first | district ana four mills for the second. | A resolution in the form of a motion | tion on the estimates as adopted that the estimates be adopted togeth- er with the tax rate recommended was immediately offered by City Treasurer F. S. Chemberlain who is also mem- ber of the board of finance and taxa- tion. Atty. McDonough Objects. Mayor Quigley presented the motion and for a moment a pause ensued. Then Attorney McDonough arose. “Before the resolution is adopted,” he | said, “I think the citizens of New Britain should scan the list and see why it should be adopted. I have not come here to oppose the resolution, but I did come to call the attention of the citizens to an ever increasing tax rate,” said Mr. McDonough. ‘“When we adopted the city charter under con- solidation we saved the city meeting and I believe it is a mighty good thing. Before 1 am prepared to vote on the resolution I should like to call atten- tion to items in the board of health department.” Hits Increasing Expenses. Attorney McDonough then launched into his main argument. He said when he was a member of the board of health it was practically an unknown body and managed to get along on $5,000 or $5,500 a vear and had some money left to turn back into the treasury. But what is the situation to- night, he thundered. The board is asking for an appropriation in exces of $18,000, over $7,000 more than las vear. The time has come, declared the attorney, when we should know why and what they are spending the mon- ey for. Mr. McDonough wanted it un- derstood he had not come to criticise the health board, but he pointed to the salary list, totaling $5,300 when six vears ago thg whole appropriation Wwas less than that amount Attacks Slaughter Housc. The item of $5,500 for the new mu- nicipal slaughter house and an in- spector he next assailed, declaring it wholly unnecessary. Mr. McDonough maintained the state laws provide for such matters and that violators of the pure food laws may be prosecuted in was | Attorney McDonough responded “elim- applause.

He characterized the health hoard’s proposition as a du- Dlication of the state’s work and said next year the city would be up against | the municipal ash collection propos tion. He informed the gathering that | he was opposed to both the municipal | slaughter house and public ash collec- tion and he had told the mayor so right in front of the National bank building. There is a law, said Attor- ney McDonough, forbidding the sale of diseased cattle and fowl in this state, but unless it is proposed to car- ry fowl down to the slaughter house the whole thing is useless. Somebody in the audience asked “Well what are you going to do?” Quick as a flash, ed with chole over there were worrving what should do when New Britain fused to take them. He or diseased cattle and informed listeners that it was not proposed stamp chickens or eggs. “If you heard the story as we of the board heard it, vou wouldn't wan cat meat,” said Mr. sion.

His reply was greeted with Donough then moved to amend to strike out the slaughter house proposition with its item of $1,000 for inspection. inate it.” Chamberlain to Defensc. F. S. Chamberlain immediately took up the defense of the municipal slaughter house proposition when Mr. McDonough finished and ably defend- ed it, He told the assembly he had been opposed to the whole thing un- til he heard Superintendent Reek's ar- guments. After Dr. Reeks had talked ' all the members of the finance hoard favored it. He ridiculed Attorney | McDonough's arguments on the past | performances of the health board and said if municipal ash collection comes next year it would be nothing sur- prising. He hoped the amendment would not prevail. Thomas H. Kehoe, also a member of the finance board, followed Mr. Chamberlain with another argument favoring the slaughter house proposi- tion. Like Mr. Chamberlain, he came to the conclusion the municipal | slaughter house was needed after hearing Dr. Reeks tell of the need.

Commissioner Kehoe, again taking | the floor, said the only question is how it is to be done. There are laws, he said, but here's the rub.
