New Britain is said to be working man's town. The appraisal engineers propose to raise values mostly outside of the Main street section. That is where the workingmen live. In fact, many of them live In Berlin, Plainville and other outside places because tax values and rents are cheaper, A ralse in tax values means a raise in the workingman's rent. Is that good policy? Pérhaps sald engineers are about to _get more wages for the workers. ‘What about Mayor Paonessa’ promise of lower, taxes if he was elected mayor? The trouble with New Britain and most cities of the U. 8. A. is that local governments spend too much money. ¢ New Britain is wasting money on zoning systems, flying fields, ete, The state government of Connecticut don't do that, They show a balance lefti over, and lay a lower tax rate What is the matter with our city government?

(#—Three naval afrplanes of the Amphiblan type, their crews aglow with enthu- stasm, are to “hop off” from the navy yarfi here at 1:30 p. m. day- light saving time, today for Boston on the first lap of the Donald B. McMillan Arctic expedition in search | of new lands, The planes are due to reach the Roston navy yard about There they will be dismantied, crated and placed on board the ships Peary and the Bodin, which will sail north- ward in July. Each plane will carry two men, & pilot and a ‘mechanic. The flight commander, Lieut. Commander R. E. Byrd will act as Navigator, while his companion in the NA-1, plane, Chief Machinists Mate Floyd Bannct, will act as pilot. Lieutenant M. A. Schur will pilot the NA-2, with Machinists Mate N. C. Nold as me- chanic. The NA-3, will be piloted by (Chief Boatswain E. E. Reber, with MAchinists Mate First Class A. Ro- cheville as pflot. Commander Byrd voiced the sen- !timents of his companions when he sald that, all were pleased with thelr prospective trip. Belleving that Roald Amundsen and his party are safe and will be found, Lieutenant | Byrd said he felt certain the ex- plorers will be heard from again. It they are not heard from hefore the McMillan expedition’s planes be- gin their flightg into the upper Polar regibns, he thinks they will be sight- ed by the Americans. Commander Byrd and his crew have been here for six weeks tuning up their planes and ‘making ready for the trip.
