Berlin News STEVENS OUT OF POLITICAL RACE Fiéld Now Lelt Open to Benson % and Deming SPECIAL COURT ~ SESSION Junior Endeavor Picnic to Be Held— Marriage License Issued—Hunting License Taken Out—Other Items of General Interest About Town. Announcement was made this motning by C. W. Stevens, Kensing- ton candidate for the position of rep- resentative to the General Assembly from Berlin, that he will withdraw from the race, which up to today had been a three cornered one, and will leave the field clear for Arthur Ben- son of East Berlin and Francls Dem- ing of Berlin. i It has been learned that Mr. Stev- ens withdrew in favor of Arthur Ben- son of East Berlin, whom he be- lieves is the man for the place. This is the first time in several years that a candidate has been on the market frorh East Berlin and there are many of Mr. Stevens' followers whom, it is reported, will support Mr. Benson. On the other hand there are many who will support Mr. Deming, now that Mr. Stevens has decided to leave the political fleld for the present time. It is expected that there will be a large attendance at the caucus for the purpose of nominating a can- didate and that the position will Dbe evenly contested. According to Mr. Stevens, the with- drawn candidate, the Town of Ber- lin ha snot been recognized paliticai- ly for many years a'though the peo- 1in has not been recognized political- of the republican party and have pushed all steps for progress thar have come. The Kensington man ai- 80 believes that Berlin should be rep- resented in state affairs and that Mr. Beneon is the man to fill the posi- tion. He goes on to say that, since Mr. Benson has always backed him and others in the town for the promotion of the best interests for the town's welfare, he could not feel justified in opposing him for the nomination, A canvass among the women voters of the town shows that the members of the fair sex are mostly in favor of Francis Deming. During the past gession of the Legislature he was an earnest worker in the interests of child welfare and for this reason many of the women say fhey will support him at the election this year.

The reports are fo: the year ending August 15, 1922, and shows savings in several departments during the past year. Although the estimated expenses have reached the amount of $114,959.95 against the sum of $90,370.87 for 1921, the list shows a great deal of improvement made about the town as far as roads are concerned, and the fact that the new fire truck wgs purchased adds a large sum to the expense list; other- of commit- wise it would have fallen behind that | of the previous year. The Town Plan commission also had an appropriation of $300 whicn was not in the 1921 budget. District nursing, another new item, calls fo- $400 this year which was not includ- ed in last year's items. Election ex- penses took a jump of $100 this year, the amount being $400 in 1922 against $300 in 1921; a jump of $700 was seen on the interest on borrowed money and bonds the sum being $3,- 700 this year. In 1921 it was $3,000. The poor account, inciuding charges at hospitals, sanitariums and asylums, had a saving of $500 this vear as only $2,500 was spent for this purpose. Another $100 was saved on printing, and another $200 on street lights. The school item showed the largest increase of any item on the records, there being $57,271.73 called for in 1622 against $45,000 in 1921, A jump of $100 was secn in the ex- penses of the town officers, including security bonds, which reached $3,700, and $500 was added to the taxes of the state and county and $5,500 was spent this year. L. 8. Mills, acting school visitor, in making his report, shows that the transportation for pupils attending cut-of-town schools, and children coming in from White Oak, has in- creased Bonsiderably.

C. B. Eastman, owner of the Com- munity theater, has announced that this Sunday evening he will start his moving plctures on the Sabbath, which question was voted upon and won by a large majority, last Friday night at a special town meting called by the selectmen. The news of Mr. Eastman starting his Sunday night movies has been received with regret and open opposition by who had opposed it Mr, Eastman however, feels that the majority of Plainville people want Sunday movies, judging from the number of votes cast for them, and he will endeavor to satisfy their de- sires, For his #irst release he has secured a film endorsed by the Howard Ave. Congregational church in New Haven, This picture, called “The Right Way," presented by Thomas Mott Osborne, was shown in that church in September. The pas- tor favored the showing of thig ple- ture because it shows the prison re. the parties form and the path travelled by a boy | brought up in the meaner parts of the city who never had a chance to go straight on account of his associates, Mr. Eastman is of the opinion that the Plainville patrons cannot but favor his plan of showing this kind of pictures on Sunday nights if a church pastor sees fit to show them to his congregation on the Sabbath, Has Radio Erected R. C. Boswell, owner of the canlzing and Automobile Accessory Semvice station on West Main street, has erected a radio on the Neri block at Central Square and has his pe- celving set in the store recently vacat- ed by the Plainville Cash market, Mr, Boswell 1s an expert in this line of work having done much of it in New York before purchasing the local business, Mr. Boswell opens his place at 2 o'cldck in the afternoon and the world series reports are given for the benefit of the local fans.
