This morning well known business -men of Kensington expressed the opinion that a man from that section of the town should be elected to the office of first selectman at the next election. They stated that Kensing- ton is now the growing and striving part of the community and that Ber- lin street, as far as business growth is concerned, is a dead issue. Kensing- ton is the center of the town, as all the manufacturing plants of any size are located there, they say. Therefore, they voiced the opinion that a Kensington man with a sound business sense should be elected to the office at least for one term to see what could be done by a man from that section. According to these men, First Sel- ectman Carter is not doing much on the roads in Kensington. “He is talking a lot and is not saying any- thing”, stated one of the men, a man prominent in one of Kensington’s business. enterprises. They stated that the roads in Ken- sington,_are for the most part in bad conditions They said that the Christ- ian Lane road is exceptionally bad and - that if the town would scrape that road once a week for month it would present a good appearance and would be suitable for traffic. “But-he doesn’t do that”, they said. “He goes over the road once a year and then doesn't touch them again for another year”. If the roads were scraped instead of filled with cinders the town would have thoroughfares to be proud of, they stated. They also scored the first select- man on the placing of the traffic cops in the town. They said that there are three on the turnpike, one at Flannery's corner and another at the intersection of the Middletown mpad and Berlin street and another ‘gvalks around and draws his pay”. \“The intersection at Upson’s corner is\one of the most dangerous sections of\road in the town,” they claimed. “There is no officer there on Sun- RED PEPPER HEAT ENDS RHEUMATISM Red* Pepper Rub takes the “ouch” from' sare, stiff, aching joints.

They related instances of how William H. Gibney, when he| was in office, flooded or nearlytaoin was in office, always ‘placed lantvrns" at that spot when the road at lhol underpass was flooded or nearly im- passible in the winter. In concluding the men said that it makes them tired to hear what the| first selectman says he is doing alli the time. They are of the opinion that he ought to get busy and get on to his job, Briefs , Walter J. Lathrop will return Mon- day from a two weeks vacation spent at Broaklyn.

Claude W. Stevens, when asked by a representative of the “Herald"” this morning, if he would seek the posi- tion of first selectman stated that he would not, under any circumstances, Mr. Stevens stated that he is too busy to be able to work for the posi- tion of first selectman. “I appre- ciate the mention, but I have no am- bition to be first selectman,” stated Mr. Stevens. Grangers Hold Meeting. Mr. and Mrs. Claude W.
