Who TIs Responsihl | Tonight's town meeting will he an| especially interesting one, and rather| important as well since the much dis- cussed school plans will take a major place in the debate. Included in the budget to he sented is an item of $1.700 presented | by C. C. Palmer, a New Britain archi- fect, for reimbursement for hlans drafted for the proposed new school in Kensington. Discussion abhout | town today indicated a general helief that Mr. Palmer's bill is a conserva- tive one since, it is pointed out, he| could have demanded the entire three per cent of total contract price of construction had he been so disposed. As near as can bhe learned, the qiestion to) come up tonight is not whether Mr. Palmer's bill -is collect: able, but rather the academic question | of who is responsible. Opinion seems to be that the town is not legally obliged to pay this bill and there is a strong impression that the school| board members themselves may be legally liahble. The question arises from the problem of whether the town or the school board itself au- thorized Mr. Palmer to proceed.| Thus far there is nothigg to show | that the town ever authorized any| such work or instructed the hoard to | do so. | Thus it appears that tonight's | meeting will dwell less on the pay- ment part of the architect’s bill and | more on who is legally rnspcnsihlu.“ The meeting will probahly he asked to adopt a definite resolution somng: forth the powers and limits of the| schoo! board definitely esttablishing a precedent and defining just what the %hoard may and may not do. That the board is not altogether omnipotent in: its authority is one of the things that the voters probably will be asked “to ‘express. As far as Mr. Palmer’s bill is con- cerned, there is little doubt, it was stated today by prominent people that it will be paid and promptly. Also, it is not likely, even though it should be - determined that the school board members themselves exceeded their authority, that the individual mem- peérs will be called upon to pay the money. pre- ay Mechanie accident Ceash on Satur George Johnson of 24 street, Meriden, figured in an faturday afternoon on the New RBrit- ain road when his car crashed into another machine driven by Cha Tiengston of 336 Park street, Ne Britain. ik Johnson, in an attempt to cut in/| and pass 2 car ahead of him, miscal- culated his distance and crashed into the Bengston machine, forcing it into the ditch. Johnson's automobile was badly damaged, but Bengston was for- tunate, suffering only bent mudgards and running board. Johnson was ar rested by Constable Brown and Prosecutor Lewis and will be in court Wednesday charged with reckless driving.
