(Continued get lower trolley fares and feel that when a lower fare does come it will be largely due to his efforts. At any| rate the committee has not been ap- pointed and at once relapsed into in- nocuous desuetude, as too many coun- cil committees have in the pa Sev- eral hearings have been held and there is one pending. He has also been instrumental in bringing about, in one case, lower lighting and gas rates, if- troducing the original resolution calling for lower rates last July. Since then the price of gas has dropped and there has been a slight change in the elgetric rates; not as much as he hopes to obtain however. He has missed but one mceting of the com- mon council in 11 years, and was in the hospital at the time he did. The alderman has long been an ad- vocate of paying a man what he is worth, several times having intervened for the city worker, though he advo- cates economy in general administra- tion expenses. He makes a point of the fact that he has been one of the staunchest advocats for the elimina- tion of the personal tax collector's of- fice as a means of economy. He op- posed, last year, the raising of sewer assessments from $1.75 to $3.00 a foot and , he thinks, saved the citi many dollars in various other ways. If elected, Mr. Paonessa promises, there will he a *“‘clean sweep” in City hall. He is not, he says, tied to any person and will give an impartial ad-| ministration, hiring the best man in the right place, regardless of his poli- tical affiliations. OtRer matters of im- portance, such as the salary question, and two-platoon system must be al- lowered to lie for the time being, until there is a stable basis of business to figure upon. The two platoon is coming eventually, Mr. Paonessa be. lieves. The candidate has worked for 14| years in public works in New York state, being mainly concerned with the building of dams. He has worked on the Croton dam for the city of New York and has worked for the government in construction work., He was in the building business in thir city for 15 vears, later taking up the automobile business which he has fols lowed here for five years. STORE 1S ENTERLED, Stanley Rarowski of 296 High street, reported to the police today that his store was entered last night, and three cartons-of cigarettes and two boxes of cigars were stolen. ITALIAN MISSION MAY LEAVE CHURCH Lack o Interest May Force Action by Parent Congregation | Unless more interest 1s shown in church matters within the coming | month than has been in the past, it| Ip likely that the Ttalian Mission, now [ holding religious, services under the auspices of the South Congregational church, will be dropped from the pa- tronage of that ehurch, ‘Chis mission has been in existence for some years, but, although the Itallan Sunday school in the same church is very active and prosper- ons, the mission has failed to grow as it was expected. It is said the av- erage attendance ‘at the morning re- ligious services is about 20 people, Fostered by South Church, The mission has been financed hy the Connecticut Home Missionary so- ciety, a Congregational organization with Dheadquarters in Hartford, and a large part of its finances came di- rectly from the South church. In ad- dition to the financial help, the South chureh also furnished »a meeting place, including heat, light and jani- tor service, It was conducted with the halp of the City Mission, of which Miss Caroline ¥, Bartiett Js the head. Sunday School May Follow, Miss Bartlett has charge of , the Itallan Supnday school, which is not t of the Ttalian Mission, but is part of the South church organiza- tion. The children who attend this school ‘are mostly sons and daughters of people Interested in the Ttalian Mission, and #t is felt that should there be any breaking away between the church and the mission there is a possibility of the Italian Sunday school following. May Work Independently. Rev. Michael Maietta, the Ttalian minister, could not he reached this morning to verify the facts, but it is understood from good authority that he has a plan to take up the work in- dependently in case it is dropped by the South church. While the mission, as it stands now, being a distinctly Congregational or- ganization, could not, without permis- sion from the Connecticut Home M donary society, legally remove of meeting, it has been advised fiss Bartlett, it is said, that in the event of obtaining such permission -t would be wecomle to hold services in the Burritt Mission on Cherry street, from which neighborhood most of the members come. May Continue. In an interview with Rev. Sherrod Soule of Hartford this morning, the latter, who is head of the Connecticut Home Missionary society, said: “We shall continue with the Sunday school and if it shows a response in the way of attendance and interest, we shall continue with the Mission, otherwise the work shall be done by visitation and through the Sunday school. When asked what'the attitude of the society was in the event the Italian people should form an inde- pendent congregation and hold meet- ings in the Burritt mission chapel, Mr. Soule said: “In that event they will not be under our auspices.” City Mission Would Help. 1 the Mission fails to show the en- thusiasm that is felt necessary, it is likely the City Mission will help in the personal visitation work among the people, it being more in the line of that organization's scope. Preach- ing services in the South church Sun- day mornings would be discontinued. May Be New Denomination. When asked if this meant that Rev. Michael C. Maletta would be dropped from the payroll, Mr. Soule appeared reluctant to feel that such might be the case. He stated that a three monhs’ period would be allowed Rev. Mr. Maietta to work out the new plan of visitation and Sunday school work, in an experimental way, and ir "hfl,t failed, the minister would be given “plenty of time to make an adjust- ment.” He said he understood that if the plan proved a failure in three months, that Rev. Mr. Maletta intend- ed to take up the work independently, but did not know whether this meant the actual founding of a new denomi- nation in the city or not. When asked recently as to what denomina- tion the Italian Mission was, Rev. Mr. Maietta replied that it was undenom- inational, but strictly Protestant. e R 2 LB K.
