Selectman George B. Carter has re- ceived a letter from the Bradiey-Hub- bard company in Middeltown request- ing information in regards to the tronze tablet which it is expected will be erected at the Soldiers’ Monu- ment as a war memorial. 'The com- pany i interested in the making of the tablet and claims that it has done satisfactory work for other Derlin residents. Although the American Legion post in this town, at a meeting héld sev- eral weeks ago, voted in/favor of the removal of the honor roll board which 1s now in frant of the town hall, and the eraction of a bronze tablet to take jts place at the monument, nothing further has been done in the matter, 1t was also voted to send a copy of the resolution to the selectman and have some one confer with him in re- gards to selecting a plan for the rais- ing of the money which will be neces- pary to erect the tablet. To date no member; of the legion has officlally conferred with Mr. Carter. Sele¢tman Carter stated this morn- ing that he is of the opinion that if the legion people want the memorial erected they shou]d make their plan for such before the town mecting which is held in September. Mr. Carter also believes that the Legion men would have to make def- nite plans before this time if they ex pect to ask for an appropriation from the finance board on the budget of next year. The selectman is in favor of the erection of the new bronze tablet and the removal of the old hon- or roll board from in front of the town hall.
