Carlson of the fourth ward, op- posing the adoption of a two-platoon plan for the fire department effective April®1, 1928, the common council at last night's meeting accepted a rec- ommendation for the installation of the system from a special committee i and passed the matter on to the board of finance and taxation to se- cure the money. After a long discussion, it was voted to ask the finance and taxation board to appropriate $3,00C more for repairs to No. 3 firehouse.

In 79 years their quality has never been compromised. Wherever good candy is sold Frank L. Conlon of the sixth ward told the committee, an item of $3,- 000 for repairs .at that station wa placed in the budget. The low tax- rate movement started at that time and the budget adopted lopped $1,000 off the figure. The work could not be done for this amount so a heat- ing plant was put in for $800 and $1,- 200 turned back to the city. The board now has $3,000, but the build- ing has been allowed to deteriorate so that twice that amount will be necessary. Aldermau Conlon clinched the argument for an appropriation by calling attention to the fact that the council appropriates millions for mat- ters some of which are important and eome of which are not, yet it hesi- tates to spend $3,000 to provide a proper place for human beings to live in. Councilman Emil Hjerpe, former fire board chairman, brought the mat- ter before the council and spoke in favor of-granting the request for $3,000. Claims $10,000 For Boys' Deiith Henry Sadis presented a claim for $10,000 damages in the death of his| 14 years old son, Fred Sadis, July 31 at the municipal swilmming pool in North End park. The petitioner as- serts that there was an implied prom- {se of protection which, he said, was not afforded and because of that fact the boy was drowned. The communication to thé counci states that $10,600 will not reimburse him for 14 years of feeding, cloth- ing and bringing up, but that this is the maximum claim under the state. The letter is to serve as notice of pending suit of the claim if not ap- proved, Mr. Sadis advises. % The school board reported that in the case of J. 8. Dixon, asking dam- ages for injuries sustained by his son at the Smith school, January 31, 1922, the petitioner has no claim against the city and the board sug- gested that the petitioner be given leave to withdraw. Opinions of vari- ous courts in other simllar cases were given to support the board’s claim. The report was accepted. Special Change in Fire Zone A report was submitted by the building commission opposing the project of changing the fire district :ines on the cast side of Stanley street between Park and Chestnut streets. The idea was to place a building in course of construction and now with- in the fire limits, but not of proper construction outside those limits. It was voted to refer the matter to a committee of the council, the cor- poration counsel and the building commission for a report at the next meeting. Alderman J. Gustave Johnson feld that the building inspector and build- ing commission were at faylt and that the owner should not suffer mage which, he said, would amount fo $10,- 000. Mayor Paonessa said the house was built on a lot other than the one for which the permit is issued. Councilman D. L. Nair felt the mat- ter should be held 'up one month' for investigation and Alderman Conlon amended that such action be taken l WARNING! Bewara of coughs and colds. 1liey are always dangerous.

A petition of Mrs. William Kramer for $10 damages to a dress resulting from the municipal fireworks exhibi-| tion last July, was referred to the claims committee. Recommendations for increases in| the salaries of David Eliason and| Mildred Quilty, employes in the office of the board of assessors, were re- ferred to the salary committee. ‘\i $400 increase for the former and a $350 raise for the latter are sought. The health board asked power to buy a Dodge sedan for a price not to exceed $1300. The petition was referred to the garage committee for a report at the next meeting. Coun- cilman D. L. Nair felt the board should ask f@r a car, but the council should have ‘the power to say what kind of a car would be purchased. Payment of the following election bills was ordered: Herald Publishing company, $11; Owen Riley, $15; John Cloughessey, $15; James Mec- Grath, $15; D. W.

Monier company, $6.15; Britain Record, $108.50 The sum of $78 was ordered paid Frank Reynolds, dog warden. The claims committee recommend- ed settlement of claims as follows: Mrs. Elizabeth Seymour, $65; Mrs. “Mary Russell, Mrs. W. A. Allen, that they be given leave to withdraw. An ordinance submitted by the ordinance committee increasing the salary of the clerk of compensation and assessment from $500 to $1,000 was adopted. Deficit Is $143,000. The ways and means committee submitted figures secured from the various departments showing a prob- able deficit of $143,000 of which) $120,000 is represented in the school | department's account. Other depart- ments showing deficits are: Police, fire, health, and public amusements. The health’ department also reported that approximately $6,000 will be needed to carry on the Rocky Hill sanitarium. The fire board submitted a bill of $467.82 from the Maxim Motér com- pany for gepairs to the 400 gallon Maxim pump. The apparatus was damaged by the breaking of a crank- shaft. A previous fire board held up the bill for investigation and the present board found the costs to be proper. The, bill was ordered paid. Two-Platoon S On motion of Alderm ~Gin the question >f establishment of a two-platoon system in the fire depart- ment came before the council for action. With the exception of Coun- c¢ilman F. O. Carlson the members present were unanimous in their vote for accepting the fire board’s report and referring it to the board - of finance and taxation. A resolution was adopted to have the health board anmlyze water in all ponds from which ice is harvested. Will Cut Ice on Reservoir. Action taken at the last meeting by which the cutting of ice at Shut- tle Meadow lake was ordered discon- tinued, was reconsidered last night and the order reversed on a yea and nay vote.
