BERLIN NEWS BERLIN MAY HAVE 25 MILL RATE TAX - Pinance Boé;d—fi Now Fix Yssessment, Not Voters el — — TOWN MEETING TUESDAY Tlesidents Expect That Much Will Be Doing—Kensington Post Office Has Busy Day—Annual Church Meeting —Informal Gathering—Berlin Bits. Interest to some extent is being nown in the adjourned annual town meeting which will be held at the “own Hall on Tuesday evening 1ext week. The meeting was ad- ourned from last Monday. There ire several important items to be liscussed and a large attendance is ooked forward to. Specific appropria- ions for the suppost of the common own schools for the ensuing year ill be made as well as to elect two rembers to the finance board. The voters will also vote upon the cceptance of two streets by the »wn; first, the street known as Berl- ale avenue running southwest from "armington avenue; second, the ~treet running from Farmington ave- nue north to the Buckley Macaroni ompany to be known as Harding treet. There has been considerable tiscussion about town relative to the selling of the town teams and horses and purchasing motor truck equip- ment in its place. This project will be rought before the voters to be de- ded upon. Few of the townspeople realize, it ‘as stated, however, that it will not be necessary to adjourn the meeting next Tuesday night until Jlate in March for the purpose of levying a x on the grand list. Because of cn act passed by the last legislature, the finance board in any town where there is such a board, will determine the amount of tax to be levied after the assessors have met. This is usually the only reason for the ad- journment of this meeting. What the new mill rate will be is not known at the present time but members of the finance board in dis- cussing the project, although they do not have any apprehension as to what the rate will be, feel that Ber- lin may have as low a rate as at present or may possibly have a rate of 26 mills. As far as can be learned there is approximately $19,000 due the town on back taxes. This money has been gathering for the past number of years. Last year the back tax rate was about $9,000, which means that over $10,000 is due on this yvear's taxes. The town also owes $20,000 in temporary loans which must be paid. If the greater portion of the $19,000 due in back taxes is collected, it is figured that Berlin can get along next year on a 21 or 22 mill rate. If they are not collected, it is possible that the town may have to pay a 25 or 26 mill rate. However, the increase in assessment may help to lower the tax rate for the town. Men who are closely connected with the town affairs stated this morning —_——— —DANCE — GRANGE HALL Berlin THURSDAY EVE. McKeon’s Orchestra. of that if the voters atr the meeting last March had decided on the 22 mill rate which the majority of people seemed to favor previous to the call of the meeting, then Berlin would not be obliged to have a much larger tax rate for this next year. Informal Meeting. An informal meeting will be held at the Community house on Berlin street this evening at 8 o'clock. AN persons in the town are invited to attend this meeting at which plans will be com- pleted for a big event to be held at the community house grounds on Sat- urday of next week. There will also be danving on the program for to- night ang v sy Day at 1. O. Yesterday was the busiest day in the history of the Kensington post- office according to an announcement made this morning Jy Postmaster W. W. Fagan. On one mail train, two tull pouches of first class mail was sent out from this office. This is the first time in history that more than one pouch containing first class mail left the Kensington office. It is es- timated that several thousands of let- ters and cards were sent, the exact number not béing known as Mr. Fagan had no time to count them. Annual Church Mecting. The annual meeting of the Berlin | Congregational church will be held at the church on Friday evening, October 14. It has been the custom of the church to hold the annual meeting in January, but due to the coldness of the weather and the fact that many of the members of the church cannot attend: at that time, it secemed advis- able at the last meeting to make a change from January to October. All members are asked to come to this meeting on next Friday evening. Ecclesiastical Society Annual. The Worthington Ecclesiastical so- ciety of the Rerlin Congregational church will hold its annual meeting at the church on Monday evening of next week.

F. McDonough of this cit; was to be retained in the in- terests of the department. Mr. Me- Donough at noon said that no one had discussed the matter with him. Just what form of legal action, if any, is to be brought about, is a mat- ter of conjecture. It has been pointed out by one of the council members who is backing the firemen that an injunction might be requested to re-| strain the mayor and the council from | setting aside the orcers of the last city meeting. It is argued that the mesting voted for establishment of the system October 1, 1921, and laid taxes, now being collected for that purpo: The action of the meeting was late validated by the legislature. It is ex- pected that these facts will be laid be- fore the firemen's attorney and he will be requested to consider the ad- visability of injunction proceedings. NINE MOROS KILLED.
