Andrews pointed out that the present rate is only 8 per cent and e felt there was no occasion for an increase. Mr. Kilbourne was of the same mind, ix-Mayor O.

Such action would demoralize the police and fire departments in a few years, he felt, and would throw the entire depart- ments into politics. He readily ad- mitted that the present system is a Jjoke. Mr. Kilbourne and M. Coue. Paraphrasing Dr. Coue's maxim, Mr. Kilbourne said: “Year by year it was getter better and better until the proportion changed. If the present president of the board of finance and taxation remained 16 years longer the first district would pay all the taxes and a bonus to the second district.” He pointed out that he and his neighbors are paying for garbage col- lection and police and fire protection, all of which they do not receive. Only four per cent of the streets are be- ing cared for by the city, he said. McMahon Vs, Kilbournc-Halloran, P. 8. McMahon warned that Kil- bourne is a member of the school beard and that his board is responsi- ble for most of the expense. Protesting against the tax, J. R. Halloran advised that some of the tax be placed around the corner of Main and East Main streets. He felt he and_ his neighbors were paying enough. Mr. McMahon felt the civil service system is an incentive to study. Mr. Halloran felt that since the city is ready to offer no substitute the present form should be retained. Chairman John E. R. Keevers spoke in favor of revision rather than elim- ination of the clvil service. After Lawyer D. L. Nair, chairman of the committee, had read a pro- posed amendment extending the lim- its of the second taxing district to include, among other sections, all of Stanley Quarter within the city lim- its, ex-Mayor Curtis asked that maps be shown. Belvidere Speaks. Mr. Kilbourne opened the attack of the Belvidere residents by calling at- tention to the fact that in 1906 when the city and town consolidated, the first district paid nine mills and the second, six. President F. 8. Chamberlain of the board of finance and taxation sald that the present districts were es- tablished in 1905 and since that time conditions in that locality have been lchanged. He argued that an elabor- ate sewer system has been worked up and the complaining district has paid nothing toward this systein. Belvi- dere should be thankfuf since a sewer is in prospect, he said. Not a cent of tax received from Beilvidere goes to- ward sewer maintenance or construc- tion. M. P. Leghorn said the big sewer bills were paid when the present Bel- in- ce, oil ni- ow nd m- of or- ms old ith of his ca- to and nd, ing of for the is re- fire the at to videre vesidents were living In the eity and jhey assisted In paying.

MeCarthy stated that 256 or 30 miles of property in the see- ond distriet has ne sewers; alse that in the southeast section of the eity conditions are not nearly so faverable a8 in Belvidere, yet there is no “kiek." If that section comes in today it will receive a present of a milllon and & half dellar sewer system, Mr, MoCar- thy said, Wants a Seventh Wand, “CGiive us a seventh ward and we'll come in," Mr, Kilbourne promised, Mr, Curtis advised that the “child's play"” be stopped and the men pull together, He told the gathering that if the proposed change goes through| CI the high tax will not go into effect until next year, and in the meantime the sewer may be laid in Belvidere, mfimrsgclety Hears Minstrel Show Reports New DBritain Chapter Hadassah held a speelal meeting at Talmud Torah hall last night.
