BERLIN NEWS SELECTMAN GALLS + SPECIAL MEETING Will Gonsider School Expenses on | September 4 ADDITIONAL UM NEEDED Three Service Men and Three Citizens i | Chosen to Arrange for Celebration for Vetcrans—Break Into ¥ishing Club—Arrests Expected. A special mecting has been called for September 4 at 8 o'clock by the selcctmen to consider and take actiop | on a further appropriation for tHo | payment of school expenses for the re- mainder of the fiscal year. This meet- ing is the result of a petition signed by 20 of the legal voters of the town. A short time ago John T. Molumphy, president of the school board, ap- proached Mr. Alling to have him call a, town meeting to take action on the | matter of an appropriation for school expenses. He was advised by Mr. Al- | ling to circulate a petition for the | calling of such a meeting and U\&:i matter would then be given attention. | Mr. Alling, let it be understood that | he did not actually refuse to call a meeting as was stated previously, but tather he advised a petition in order | that there might not be a confusion of issues. Calling a meeting from a ver- bal order would not prevent voters from bringing up any matter they wished to pass on, he said. By having a petition signed by the | \oters stating the exact purpose of the meeting, no other matter can be p «d on without being out of order. schools need the money to defray ex- penses incurred during the present fis- cal year. The addition of new rooms apd the repairs to them have entailed additional expense above the original appropriation, and in order to meet the increased costs a special town meeting had to be called. The schools have had an appropriation of $27,000 | but the increased cost of materials | id the additional rooms and numer- | ous other items have used up the en- tire amount Committecs Chosen, A committee of three service men and three citizens of the town were chosen last evening at the meeting at the' town hall for the purpose of ar- ranging a welcome home celebration The meeting was presided over by Charles F. Lewis of the war bureau | who was elected chairman of the fu- ture activities of the welcome home celebration The following service men were elected as a committee to take up with the rest of the service men what they would like most for a celebration: John Trehy, Ambrose Barrett and Gustave Hanson Mr. Trehy will see the boys in Ken- sington and find out their wishes, and Mr. Barrett will cover Berlin, while Mr. Hanson will take care of East Berlin.
