P. Prior has been a justice of the peace for the past 18 or more years and since his failure to be nominated on the democratic ticket | on Tuesday night, many disgruntied voters who, however, were not pres- ent at the democratic caucus, have stated that there were preparations made to keep Prior off the ticket as far as justice of the peace was concerned and instead to nominate him for judge of probate, an office which he cannot hope to wim from | Meritt 0.

The chairman broke the slignce by asWing for the motion to adjourn if no other busi- ness was to come up. Tax Collections Here the report of the tax collec- tor was brought on by the law and order committee, Mr. Alling. He sald that the amount of unpaid col- lectable taxes was shown, but there was nothing to show palll taxes, or uncollectable taxea.

While a general free-for-all was being held at the annual town meet- ing last night regarding the legal- ity of the salary increase of $200 granted last year to First Selectman George B. Carter, the annual repprt of the superintendent of schools, Miss Mary Griswold, was passed without a dissenting voice or a question being asked, in spite of the fact that this report included a recommendation for 'a new, four- room school bullding in Berlin, to be located in the Christian Lane dis- trict. The cost of such a building, on.a comparative basis with the new Blue Hills school, would be, roughly, between $25,000 and. $30,- 000. It is doubtful that the report of the superintendent would have been passed over so easily, had the voters taken the time to study this report. There was no discussion on the re- port and mo questions were |asked r3garding such a step. The meeting was not one of prog- ress, Rather it stirred up old ani- mosities and raked up ghosts of matters long dead, out of a dark and dank past. The part of the first grave digger was played to good advantage by W. L Alling, former first selectman. W. H. Gibney was chosen chair- man of the meeting and the call for the annual town meeting was read. The reading of the annual reports then hegan. Sparring matches be- tween chairman and voters, voters 2nd town officials and everybody generally resulted from this move. The reading of the reports and their pastage, usually a matter of form, teok up nearly two hours, hecause of certhin alleged irregularities and 1llegalities. First Selectman’s Salary The first chime was sounded when Willard 1. Alling rose to his feet and questionéd the legality of the granting of the salary increase of $200 to First Selectman George B. Carter last year. This item, found in the report of the selectmen, brought forth the question frem Mr. Alling. . He said that he has found no rec- ord of a salary increase since 1909 and sald that the finance commit- tee had no right to increase the sal- ary of the selectmen except by a vote of the people in town meeting. He sald that the time fo correct it is the present. Francis Deming, chairman of the finance hoard, teplied that a request had been presented that the salary be increased from $800 t6 $1.000 and this recommendation was included in the budget for the year. e said that at a town meeting last year, at which about 50 voters were present, » regolution was offered to the effect that the salary of the first selectman be increased $200. This was incor- porated in the budget and the budg- ot approved by the taxpavers in the last annual town meeting. “The matter Is not 5. to be imake such a matter that a separate motion was required to grant a salary increase, but Ma- jor Wilcox asked if an approved and accepted budget, in which the increase is incorporated, has pot rne same binding force as a separate motion. It was contended that the budget fixes ¢he salary. However, Mr. Alling hurried right hack to the fore and remarked that the budget is not specific. It is merely an estimate, He again ex- pressed the fervid opinion that the matter should be settled at once. Carter Defends Salary First Seléctman Carter, blazing with indignation, started to his feet and inquired why the salary of the first electman was picked upon. He sald the town meeting passed on the increase. A scparate resolution was well and good in the days when there was no finance hoard, but times have changed, he said. Miss Murray said that she was not arguing for or against the pro- position, but wanted to see fair play. It the matter was frregular it should be made regular, she sald, and the town me®ting was the place to do it. Here Mr. Alling, not to be squelched, said that a state law re- quires a separate resolution for an increase in the salary gelectman. Frank Pinches moved that the se- lectmen’s report be lald on the table. Charles F. Lewls said that there was nothing wrong with the report itself. of legality. Why should the report be laid on the tabie, he asked. “We can't pick separdte items out of the report,” said the chairman. “Does the chair decide that the action of the finance hoard and the acceptarice of the budget by the town meeting is not enough to a legality?” asked Major Wilcox. “I'm not here for that piirpose, said the chairman. “The motion has been made and seconded.” Selectman is Questioned From then“on the questions aimed at the head of the first selectman came thick and fast “Are there any outstanding bills?" ‘“There are.” “Do they appear on: the report?” “They do not. They were not asked for. “Is there anything to show assets and liabiNties?" “No.” “Is {he amount of indebtedness of bonds or borrowed money shown?" “The bonds appear in the treas- urer's repo “I thought,” said Miss Murray, “that according to action of the leg- islature, no past due bills are al- lowed.” “I thought that as: ties &hould be shown. chairman.

It was claimed by some that the report was made to the school | board and. as It was accepted by them, nothing else was needed.

Sylvester (Zimma, charged with breach of the peace, was assessed the costs of court and Harry Matinik was fined $5 and costs on the same charge. Both men were arrested as a result of an argument which started be- tween the two and resulted in their appearance in court last evening. Grand Juror William Foran prosecuted the cases.
