Norton Possessor of Berry Bearing Bush—Items. The adjourned town meeting held in the court room last night was well attended, there being ‘about 100 o1 more voters present. Several important items' for the town's improvement were passéd and the reports of the various officials were read and accept- ed. George acted as chairman, while Robert C. Usher was clerk. A resolution was presented for:tax abatements on property owned by ex- soldiers or persons who have had members-of the family killed in the World War. This resolution was moved and passed upon with the result that the following persons will receive an abatement on their taxes: A. L. Dib- ble, Mrs. Mae Lincoln, Floyd Reaney, G. Coite, Mrs. Hannah Hemmingway, George A. Davis and Mrs. Brock. ‘The matter of having new street lights wag discussed. There is urgent need ot having several on East Broad strecet on the corners of Cedar, pruce, Liden and Laurel. A petition was also entered for a light on Shuttle Meadow road at Queen street and near the Plainville-Southington town line. Selectman W. J. Johnson suggested lights on the end of Broad street, on East street and two or three on Camp streets as well as the road to Farming- ton. The expense of each light is about $19 per year. Henry Trumbull sug- gested that selectmen be authorized to install 10 lights during the ensuing year. John Lamb voted to have at least 12 while Postmaster Peter Prior made an amendment that there be not more than 20 as these are fully needed. This amendment was passed and the selectmen will install the lights where they are needed most. The Police Business Much to the disappointment of many who had attended the meeting for this, purpose, there was little said or done in regards to the policing of the streets of the town. A resolution was read to the eect that the selectmen would se- cure an efficient police patrolman. The following committee will work with the selectmen: Stanley Gwillim, Wil- liam J. Foran and Edward Prior. The matter will therefore stand as It is until the committee and selectmen name the officers for duty. Borrowing Money It was voted that the selectmen be authorized to borrow $70,000 to pay the expenses of the current and fiscal vear and to pay past expenses. The resolution read to the effect that the selectmen could borrow as much money as they wanted but this was overruled inasmuch as the voters felt that they would be given too much scope. Acquilla H. Condell suggested a limit on the borrowing and Henry T. Trumbull moved that the sum of $70,000 be taken. This was accepted. Last yeur the selectmen had to bor- row but $58,000 while this year it has increased to the sum of $65,000 need- ed. Sidewalk Chapter Some discussion occured on the mat- ter of voting to adopt Chapter 176, of the General Statute Laws of Con- neticut, in regards to construction and care of sidewalks as made by by-laws supper at the home of Allan Hart on Main street last evening. = - Adjourned town meeting at Town hall this evening. There is quite & little dissatisfaction among the resi- dents of East Berlin-on high assess- ments placed on their property and high mill tax to pay. The property in East Berlin ia now decreasing in value and hard to dispose of, also_ several avaflable tenements to bo Had, and valuation should ba on a decrease. Commencing next Monday, Oct. 17, Fox’s theater will ¥ go back to pre-war prices, which will be azs follows, plus war EBALCONY .... ORCHESTRA . $400 appropriation for sidewalk re- pairing and after that other waiks, to be constructed, will have to wait until the next annual town meeting. Cleaning sidewalks in the winter | will also come under this chapter. All persons are liable to a fine of $5 tor not keeping the sidewalks in good shape. The town will see that it is waken care of and the bill will be charged to the property owners. The cleaning of the walks must be done within 24 hours after the storm. This chapter was voted upon and will go into effect. Town Plans Commission A new Town Plans Commission was appointed with the six following men on it: Frank T. Wheeler, Roswell G. Hart, James A. Eaton, Edmon D. Gridly, James Simpson and Joseph McCarthy. These men will take over the work of the former Town Plans commission composed of but three members, namely: Carles H. New- ton, Fred L. Benzon and Acquilla H. Condell. There is no salary connected with this commission and any persons acting on it, cannot hold a salaried office of the town. Edwin H. Hills was samed for the oflice but was over- ruled inasmuch as he held the office of assistant school visitor. Harry A. Castle declined the office also. It was voted that $250 be appropriated to the commission to carry on its work. Postmaster Prior opposed the new commission as he felt ihat it would be an opening for the majority to get hold of the commission and operate things as they wish. This was crushed however when the statute laws read that vacancies on the board will be filled by a vote of the other members of the commission and thus eliminate the feeling that the commissicn was a party plan. = The first two men named will hold office for one year, the second two for two years and the last three mention- ed for three years. They will com- mence work where the former com- mission left off and probably the first job they will undertake will be that of building a roadway to the Plaintiile Casting company. Other Business Transacted It was voted and passed that the sum of $400 be appropriated to the Plainville branch of the .Red Cross for the Visiting Nurses’ use. It was aleo voted that the town ap- propriate $200 to the clerk of Select- man W. J. Johnson for services ren- ered in recording the past meetings and other data. New Roadway Planned Postmaster Prior mentioned the matter of having a roadway made to the Plainville Casting Co. :l‘hls com- pany is a new concern situated here and has been growing rapidly. Noth- ing has been done about making a highway from Washington street to Whiting street although the old Town ‘Plans Commission started the project but came to a halt when the railroad- problem was confronted. The statule laws read that no highway can b made to pass a railroad unless it i over or underneath same railway. Postmaster Prior attacked the attitude of the town on this question and felt that the new manufacturers weer not treated with the same consideration as other plants had been. The factory has done much towards the welfare of the town and needs the support of the officials in regards to a new roadway for access to the plant, he argued The selectment were authorized to sc: that a proper highway be built to the shop before the winter sets in.
