New Police Station Is Needed Commissioners Inform Mayor «\nnual Report Submitted to Executive Today—Park and Public Works Boards File Reports. In its annual report to Mayor A. M. Paonessa, the board of police com- missioners asks that consideration 1 | given the need for a new police s tion, asserting that the present build- (ing has outgrown its usefulness and /that no more money should be ex- pended on it. The board also sug- gests that the advisability of install- ing a signal light system throughout the city be considered. These and | other recommendations will probably be taken up in the mayor's message to the council, to be read next Wed- pesday evening Relative to the need for new police | headquarters, the report says “The building now used as a police headquarters has outgrown its useful- [ness and some provisions should be | made for securing of better quarters for the police department. The close proximity of the railroad and the con- stant switching of trains make it a | very undesirable place to hold cour proceedings, and furthermore, we are getting to a stage where we have to provide more room for the depart- yment. We do not faver the spend- | Ing of money to any great extent on [the present building, but we are of the opinion that this subject should be | given serious consideration.” Signal Light System. The board has the following to say regarding the signal light . system which it wishes to have placed in op- eration: “The City of New Britain is a cos- mopolitan city and we have to contend the various crimes and vio- lations of the law the same as any | | worked with you.
