ARGUES AGAINST EVIL OF MORTGAGE Blodgett Would Stamp Out Over- loading Property Hartford, Nov. 22.—At the hearing in t=¢ hall of the house of represen- in the capitol by the state board of equalization today there were two statements made that were par- ticularly notable. One was by Tax Commissioner Wm. H. Blodgett a member of the board who presided, and the other by Dr. Wm. L. Higgins, of Coventry, who has represented his town in the house and his distriet in the senate. Commissioner Blodgett denounced the practice of overload- ing a property with mortgages, some times up to the sixth mortgage and said that the practice should be stamped out. He deseribed the prac- tice as barbarous, and said it should rot be tolerated. The best way to, climinate the praetice is to list the mortgages, he said, The discontinnance would bring about a healthy condi- tion in the real estate business. Dr. Higgins said that a remedy for the trouble over equalization might be found in the creation of boards of county assessors or perhaps district ASSCS50! each district representing a number of towns with the tax com- misioner as adjuster. There were one hundred and ten selectmen and as- | sessors from 46 towns present. The | invitation to the hearing was limited to towns whose grand lists do not ex- ceed $3,500,000 and who come within the #tate school grants, AVIATION RESERVE SYSTEMUNDER WAY {60 o 00 Plir of the practice 'l 200 Fliers Will Be| Trained Yearly | G, | Hartford, CITY ITEMS, Detective’ John C.

P, Slade of the Senior high school does not agree with the policy of the park commission in ro- fusing the school tho use of bleachers from Willow Brook park for the Hartford-New Britain football game Saturday afternoon, and Park Com- missioner W, 1%, Delaney does not ugree with the decision of the school authoritics that Memorial Field at Willow Brook park is not in good condition for an important game, but despite the difference of opinions be- tween the two branches of the city government, there will be no further commupication between the parties on the subjects concerned, they say. Although a professional game has already been played on the field, the physical directors of the school say the playing fiolfl is muddy and not fit for a big game. On that account they changed their original plans and will play at 8t. Mary's field. After announcing this decision, the school authorities asked for the use of bicachers and settees. Use was re- fusedl, the park board explaining that the cost of hauling is too high and the risk of breakage too great. DEFENDING PATRONAGE Government G. ¥.
