Mrs. Lardner said today that she has had no time to map out a plat- form, although she said that, if she | is elected, she will do all in her pow- | er to ald the town of Berlin. She gald there have been several things in the town with which she did not agree, but just what she will oppose and what she will work for she does not say as yet. When democratic voters gathered | at Foresters’ hall last evening they | had not the slight idea who would be chosen to head the party in the coming battle at the polls. No names had been suggested, be- yond that of Third.Selectman Ray- moénd F. Dyer and he refused to consider the @momination. Just how Mrs. Lardner will line up alongslde of the republican can- didate, whoever he may be, is not known. It is expceted however, that the democratic candidate will poll | the Ttalian vote almost in its entire- ty., Mrs. Lardner being a menter of one of the best known-Itw.®T fam- {lies In town. Mrs. Lardner is Mr. and Mrs. John Carbo and is a/ native of Kensington. Her husband, | Edward J. Lardner is associated ¥ith | her father in the brick husiness. She 1s regarded as one of Berlin’s most popular women. Democrats feel that they could have made no bet- | ter choice of a candidate. | The caucus also nominated four Justices of the peace, Phillip M. Fa- gan, George W. Sullivan, Arthur Lieficld and Miss Johanna Murray. v The session was well attended and enthusiasm Is being manifested in the coming campaign.. The Demo- crats this year feel’ that they have a good chance of coming throughe with the election and will put forth every effort possible to accomplish their aim. Moffatt Heads Community Arthur L.

Two members of the town plan commission to fill the expiring terms of Henry 8. Washburn and Thomas P. Prior, were then nominated and Messrs. Prior and Washburn were elected to succeed themselves. Joseph P. McCarthy moved to au- thorize the board of selectmen to borrow money not to exceed $70,000 to carry on the business of the town for the fiscal year and it was so voted. A resolution was then Introduced by F. L. Benzon to raise a commit- teo of three fo examing the ac- counts of the town and if advisable, install an accounting system in the town. This committee would be empow- ered if they thought advisable, to spend a sum not to exceed $1,000 to install an accounting system. Mr. Benzon explained that he was seek- ing a better way of keeping the hooks. He stated that it was not a reflection on the selectmen because they were doing the best they could with tire system in vogue. This, he explained, was a single entry system land as the town was growing big- ger, a clearer system was needed. He said that the committee should be selected very carefully. . H. Newton amended the mo- tion to state that the committee {would be raised to work with th board of selectmen and both meas- ures were carried. The members of the committee named are Henry S.

FRECKLES AND next Monday eve- TTELL YA WHAT, WILLIE# Berlin Construction Co.,, have been blowing around the office for the past two days about the wonderful catch they made on their fishing trip to Westbrook over the week- end. This report was characterized as “a lotta bunk” by one of their.co- workers, who in a fit of jealousy or truth-telling, let out the harrowing details, He says they have nothing to rave about, although they did catch a few fish. & Annual Town Meeting The annual town meeting will be held tomorrow night at § o'clock in the town hall and a large crowd is expected to be present to hear the result of the project to have the property in town reassessed by an | outside concern.

The only contest of the evening was on the question ratsed by First Selectman Willlam J. Johnson con- cerning petitions he had reccived for the installation of about 25 new lights. He stated that the present contract under which the town is paying $19 for lights, would expire next year and the town would prob- {ably have to pay in the neighbor- ‘Ihnod of $17 for the lights.

Gwillim and Willlam J. Foran with the hoarfl of selectmen bie appointed to take care of policing the streets. James Simp- aon objected ahd his objection land- ed lke a bombshell in the meeting. He stated that if It wus the place of the selectmen to take care of polic- Ing the streets why have others come in to help when they were capable of doing it themselves, The motion was lost unanimously, A. H. Dresser moved that the polls at the state and national elections be open from 6 a. m, to 5 p. m. saying that the lengthening of the hour to 6 o'clock in the evening worked too many hardships on, those working. The motion was not seconded and John Lamb moved that the polls be open from 6 a. m. to & p. m. and the motion was carried.
