- 1 B May were appointed as follows: PORTABLE BOOTHS AT ELECTION TIME Commerce Chamber Investigating This Pressing Civic Need A discussion of the recent election and the condition and location of the various polling places took place at the \vnul‘ meeting of the dir tors of tho Chamber of Commerce this noon, with the possibility that New Britaln will ultimately have port-. able polling places for use at election times. Judge G, W, Klett brought the mat- ter up, stating that conditions were not as they should have been from the standpoint of accessibility and clean- liness at the recent mayoralty elec- tlon. This scemed to be the sense of the opinlon of the board members present and it was declded to ahead with an investigation of costs in changing the places. It was sug- gested that there were a number of school houses that might conveniently be used and that there were several buildings of portable nature in the possession of the school board that might be placed in the wards where a school was not accessible, To Obtain Figures, The portable hooths might also he purchased for the wards where the schools were not used, it they are, The sccretary of the organization was Instructed to endeavor to obtain the cost of operation and maintenance of portable voting booths for use here, preparatory to another discussion to be held later on. Tt is felt by the di- rectors that the public generally wil appreciate any action that may be taken to make more convenient the annual election times, The secretary announced, at the business meeting, that the Chamber of Commerce would hold a joint meet- ing with the New Britain branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers on Thursday, April 27th in the Junior (Central) High school anditorium at which time 1°. B. Riley, traveler and humorist will give an illustrated lecture on “The Lure of the Great Northwest” and that the open forum of the chamber, at which State Highway Commissioner Rennett was to speak would not be held until May. At the coming meeting it is probable that the members of the Chamber of Commerce will be asked to make their choice of the new directors who have been nominated. Secretary Makin also announced the removal of the I5. C. Carter and Sons factory from New York to this city, an account of which will he found in another column. An appli- cation from the Trevor 4-Iidge Sa ety Razor company for information as to a possible Jocation hese was re- ceived, with no action taken. Daylight Saving. The Chamber, through its direc- tors, voted to acquaint the common council and the school board with the desire of the organization that a day- light saving plan be adopted through a communication which will be sent to both bodies. The manufacturers of the city at a meeting last Tues- day went on record as in favor of the plan, the Chamber has also gone on record and the city bodies will bhe so informed. There is a possibility that the hours of the school sessions and city offices will be changed, if the clocks are not, so that work may start an hour earlier. Boosters' Commiittee. President J. C. Loom appointed a “DBoosters'” committee, to act as a steering committee in publicity pro- Jects as follow: v. J. L. Davis, chairman; 15 J. W. Klett, l.. P. Slade, E. W. Christ and J. Vance.
