SAYS GITY NEEDS AN INGINERATOR © Must Have It, Regardless of - Cost, Judd Declares | The city of New Britaln very | * shortly must establish an incinera- | tor plant and dispose of garbage by | burning it, regardless of the ex-| pense, Alderman W. H. Judd said at the first meeting of the commit- tee appointed to consider the ad- visability of having an incinerator, last evening. He said $150,000, * which Dr. R. W. Pullen mentioned | ' as the probable cost of an 80 ton plant, is too large an amount to be | paid out of taxation in a single vear, | so it is probable that a bond issue | may be required. Borrowing the money on short term notes and pay- ing off the notes year by year would be a good method of financing the project, he said, but he was under the fmpression that the city has the right to borrow not more than $50,000 on this plan. Alderman Judd and other mem- bers of the committee expressed the conviction that it would be unwise for the city to establish a reduction plant for the reclaiming of by- products of garbage, as is done in Bridgeport. The overhead expense of such a plant is 5o great and the market for tankage so uncertain that the city would not be justified | in attempting to operate along these | * lines, the members sald, and decl- | sion was made to consider only an | + Incinerator. Representatives of | has its disadvantages and at best can |t age taxpayer does not welcome an increase in taxes, but in this in- stance, the demand for an improved method of disposal of garbage, rub- bish and ashes must be met. Dr. Pullen sald New Britain gar- bage 18 being disposed of in ris- tol and Plainville. It cannot be dis- posed of in Berlin, Newington and | Farmington, and it is only a ques- | tion of time when there will be no place for its disposal. New Britain fs | built up in all directions to such| proximity to its boundaries that lo- cal disposal is out of the question. | The cost of collecting the garbage 15 ¢ increasing from year to year and there is no reason to expect it will |} ever decrease. The burial of garbage | only afford temporary solution of the | ¥ problem. ! Relative to the health angle of the | garbake situation, Dr. Pullen sald garbage i 1f is not a breeder of dis- ease. It draws flic nd eventually causes a filthy condition, but in it- self it does not menace publie health, One of the strongest arguments for the incinerator is that the burning of refuse such as excelsior, old box- es, cardboard and pasteboard recep- les in small incinerators in rear | o q t W |land—which is the western {a line would he the shortest NEW TRUNK LINE FAVORS THIS CITY Shippers Interested in Another Route to West New Britain, Waterbury, Hartford ind all the cities along the go-called erbury branch line of the New laven railroad are interested in the atest examiner's report by the In- erstate Commerce Commission, which was fayvorable to a new short- ine trunk line between the east and Chicago. The trunk line would ink up the Lehigh and New Eng- outlet of the Waterbury branch line be- yond the Hudson—the Reading, the 3uffalo, Rechester and Pittsburgh, ind the Baltimore & Ohio. Through freight service over such and quickest route from New Britain to he west. That it is a consolidation almost certain to eventuate is evid- ent from the favor in which it s held by the 1. C. C., which is expect- ed to act favorably upon the exam- iner's report, just made. The consolidation is being made voluntarily and through purchases. |The Reading was given carte blanche permission to get complete control of the Lehigh and New Eng- land through control of its stock, of which Reading is already said to own a majority. The Reading in turn is largely owned by the Baltimore and Ohio, which, with the New Yori Central, is buying up shares wherever offer- cd. The New York Central is des- ds about the city causes a smoke | ance which cannot be tolerated | 1f all such refuse was up regula burned in an incinerator such as is contemplat- ed, the smoke nuisance would be | eliminated, the fire hazard in the | business district would be and the conditions at the F ton avenue and Glen street dump- ing grounds, where fires are con- stantly smoldering and giving off large volumes of choking smoke, would be done away with, Dr. Pul- len said. The bes. location for the proposed incinerator is on tha Town Farm property, near the municipal abat- est existing route—and would bave about 1,000 feet less elevation than the Pennsylvania, thus insusing greater economy in operation, it is said. President Loree of the Delaware and Hudson had a similar acheme a year ago but as his line has no outlet to the west, and as the scheme required the construction of much new -cxpensive mileage, the L C. C. refused to sanction it. The B. & O. scheme 1s favored becau no new trackage is needed, insur- ing lowest possible costs to ship- The Lehigh and New England is the connecting link between the Reading and Jersey Central with the New Haven branch line run. ning through this city.
