A movement is on foot for the erection of a new library on the Worthington Community Center grounds on Warthington Rid This movement has been started by several of the prominent citizens who feel that the old Berlin library is getting too small to those wishing to borrow books. The library committee, during the past several years, has received many valuable volumes and it is said that there is no room in the building for them. Whether a new building will be erect- ed soon depends upon the action taken by the library committee, but eventually a new institution must be established so that all patrons can be accommodated and more books dis- played for public use. The Worthing- ton Community Center association is said to be in favor of the erection of a new building and may take action.on the proposition at its next meetins Park Nearing Completos v, o The retaining, ":1_!';;‘. monumrent Chateau Thierry.

SESSION OF BOARD Ruthority to-Act on Petition Is Questioned Because the chairman and mem- bers of the board of public works were not certain that that commis- sion could legislate against the ccn- struction of buildings for commercial -purposes or the remodeling of struc tures for business houses of any h'nd, the petition of a number of Garden street and Black Rock avenue prop- erty holders to that end was refarred to the’ corporation counsel last eve- ning. The purpose set forth in ihe petition was that they desired to have the section of the city maintained as a i residential section. Those signing were: Mrs. Cecellz Meehan, Magnus Selander, James Mc- Cormack, John F. Caufield, J. E. Klingberg, A. F. Nilson, T. W. Fagan, Mr. and Mrs. Latham, Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Hahn, Dr. and Mrs. Pinnzay, Mrs. Edmond Gorman, Mrs. Alice Moore and Eric Frederickson. The matter of extendinz a sewer from Tremont street to Wilcox st -eet, on Daly avenue, was laid over. Thomns Murphy spoke for Mrs. M. A. Murphy as opposed. Michael Lavis was also opposed. Similar action was taken on Ab:.- ham Gorbach's petition for grading the southwest corner of Stanley s‘reet at the proposed boulevard; also t:eo boulevard for a distance of 300 feet westerly, at a cost of $1,500. Com- missioners Cadwell and Moore op- posed the matter. Permission was given Peter Simo- nian to move a house from 45 to 146 Tremont street, provided a bond of $5,000 to protect the street is posted. The petition of Leonardo Santa to move a dwelling from 61 to 193 Tre- mont street was laid over tem- porarily. It was voted to give a hearing on the proposed sanitary sewer from Roberts to Buell street, in Bassett street. The city engineer was in- structed to secure an estimate of costs for grading Lyons street trom Shuttle Meadow avenue to Monroe street. A. G. Hawker petitioned for permis- sion to move a gasoline station from 12 to 58 Elm street. Commissicners were informed that the change da already made. After a discus- sion the petitioner was given ‘eave to withdraw, which is equivalent to an order to move the station to its original site. The corporation counsel advised that Louis Miller, a jitneur, has no claim against the city for damages re- sulting from his car being stuck in the mud on Lincoln street. On the mat- ter of diverting traffic to the outskiris of the city, the clty engineer was in- structed to secure an estimate of costs to put streets over which the route would run in good repair. Tt was voted to recommend the pur- chase of a Ford car for the engineer- ing department at a cost of $707. A contract was referred to the corpora- tion counsel by the Connecticut Light & Power company for supplying power at the sewer beds On the matter of the extension of subway west of Black Rock bridge to take care of the Connecticut Lig :t & Power company’s wires in prefer- ence to the granting of a petition for permissiqn to string qverhead wires, it swas suggested that the officiais of the company and the mayor confer upon the matter.
