Representatives from the Blue Hills district in Kensington were the most active at the open meeting of the finance committee held in the Town Hall last evening. After the budget which had been prepared by this committee, has been read by Claude W. Stevens very few remarks wére made with the exception of the Blue Hills people. They feel that an extra $1,500 or $2,000 should be added to the budget to take care of the roads in that section of the town Claude W. Stevens resided over the meeting which was not as largely at- tended as was expected. The finan- cial report of the Berlin town school committee was favorably received and much comment was heard in various parts of the hall on the report of this committee inasmuch as the increase asked by the board is not over $400. The budget for the school board last r called for $67.222 while for this the board asks $67,630. A big -rease I8 noted in the appropri tion asked for the extension work Last year $7,600 was granted while only 0 is adked for in the 1921 budget. Thoy teachers' salary list for 1920 amounted to $32,500 but is in- creased to $35,150 for this year. It is worthy to note, however, that there are two new teachers added to the Berlin school force this year. Town officials are pleased with the report prepared by the budget and believe that there will be little op- position at the annual town meeting to be held next month. During the past year at special meetings appro- priations were made which amounted to $5,371.35 which are included In the new budget. The appropriations were made as follows: Probate court of New Britain, $283.70; drainage system, $1,132.98; East Berlin bridge $2,245.16; East Berlin road (in excess of allowed appropriation) $1,689.51, refund of taxes $20. The final budget will be made at the next session of the finance board to be held at a later date. New Voters Made.
