Even renting such a walting sta- tion would be a little farther than the | company would care to go, probably. But New Britain might be assured that the company would be pleased, whether or not it said so in so many words.

We realize, of course, all the good things the company has done for New Britain and how quick it would be to do things for New Britain in the matter of service, ete, were it in a financial position to do so. But it is not in such financial position, and untll it Is it would seem, almost, as though New Britain were seeking to display its excessive courtesy al far-fatched way were the city to build and maintain a beautiful waiting sta- tion for the Connecticut Company’s customers. We say “beautiful” ad- visedly, because certainly the people of the city do not want an unsightly waiting station in or near central park—not for the benefit of the Con- necticut Company. Perhaps, - just perhaps, it would be as well to wait| until the company has shown some | courtesy to New Britain before the city under to something which is essentlally the business of the | company. Sy in es do TAX EXEMPTIONS Often it has been said in these columns that the growing burden of taxation is the greatest problem peo-| ple have to face today. Of cour those who pay the heaviest taxes are the ones who are most eager to see that burden lightened, although the| small taxpayer can less well afford | to pay his smaller amount than can the large taxpayer. But the latter have the influence; the former, the | small property owner has little. Similarly the more tax exempt pro- perty there is, the heavier the burden | But making pres- subject to | upon all taxpayers. ent tax-exempt property taxation should relleve taxpayers more, in proportion, than it will the small taxpayer.

Well, that's reasonable enough. That's where the taxpayers are. Sovietism will conquer the world if ever it can persuade the workers that raising cain is more enjoyable than eating.

The boys were modest in telling their story and contended that it was noth- ing more than what any real Ameri- can with red blood would do under | the same circumstances and with the same training. Both Tancred and Erickson have former records for saving iives. The court of honor after investiga- | ting the case concurred in the de- cision to recommend the principals in the life saving incident for a letter of commendation. The silver and bronze medals for life saving have beén eliminated and there is but one medal of solid gold, which involves extreme risk of per- sonal life, to be won. Because of this no medals will be awarded al- though it is likely they will be recom- mended. “The real reason YGS, § WANT SOoMBTHING, BuT' L DoN'T want To CARRY ON NECQ oTIATIONS TY RADIO WiTH A LAZY SAUSIMAN (N 148 REAR O= THE 3Irvowrs | FRoNT ! there was no cuers had been so thoroughly schooled in the modern methods of life saving and being scouts were prepared to do the right thing at the accord- ing to Walter O.

Scoutmaster Skinner claims that there was no personal heroism in- volved in his part of the work, that he merely performed his duty as a scout leader, and believes that &he credit is due entirely to the boys.
