Berlin News SCHULTZ REPLIES ON FIRE COMPANY Legion Post Drating Petition for Town Meeting HILL POT IT UP T0 VOTERS Tercival Avenue Glants Wallop Ken- sington Grammar School Team— Selectmen’'s Meeting Tonight— Marriage License Issued — Items. Encouraged by the support of a large body of townspeople, Bolton- Kasica post, American Leglon, is taking initial steps towards calling a special town meeting at which _the proposed fire protection pro- gram will be considered. A petition for the summoning of the town meoting is being crafted and will be presented to the town officials upon the completion of the neces- sary list of voters. In answering tae letter signed by Taxpayer,” which was reccived Mriday, and which asked that se- rious consideration be given the matter before the town cut loose from the efficlency of the New Britain fire department, Adolph W. Schultz, chairman of the Legion committee which has had charge of the investigations, has written the 1ollowing lotter: “In answer to ‘A Taxpayer' yould like to say that T am a ta gver myself and certainly do not sunt to increase my expenses. lowever, in this case I believe the ‘\merican Legion is justified in furthering the movement for a local fire department. According to & re- port which I submitted at the last ineeting, a local fire department will increase the taxes only a frac- tion of a mill but the reduction in insurance rates in the two districts mentioned, Kensington and Berlin, will be approximately 50 per cent snd T believe that 90 per cent of the taxpayers In these districts will save a considerable amount of money. “The maintenance cost will not increase from year to year as was siated in the letter, because the figures quoted were the carrying charges of the department. You will notice that these figures allow- .i the hose to be replaced every &x vears and both trucks could be {-oplaced every 15 years. The fig- f.res also included the salary of «¢ full-time paid man plus the @!l men, gas, oil, rent, chgrging . chemical tanks, etc, and on is we added 10 per cent so as it to underestimate the cost. “However, there s another item the question. If a person should s his life in one of these fires, o amount of money could bring it hick to him. According to authori- s on fire fighting, the first four "v: five minutes are the most im- jortant at any fire and ‘Taxpayer’ funits that it takes from eight to : mingtes to bring the New Brit- fire department to Berlin and psington. Add to this the time t In notifying the proper town 1 {statement of "A avhorities and you have quite a sy in getting them to a fire, We not _criticizing the New Britain | x»ar(m-vm; we belleve they. are vy efficient, hut we do criticize f): present system of fire protec- :.chunx nded his letter with a atement that the hoard of fire | derwriters made certain require- !enu for the lowering of the rates i priced. for, each $5.00 for, each $8.00 Cloths, 68x108 Napkins, 2015 —— ey and could not change them to suit one community, replying to a| payer” which hinted that the requirements would be raised at some future date. A canvass of the sentiment of the town seems to be about evenly dgivided on the question, certain outlylng residents claiming that | the proposed system would not benefit them and would increase taxes out of proportion with the residents benefited by the service.

Woman Hurt in Accident Mrs. Alice Cronan of Waterbury {was injured about 9 o'clock this morning when her automobile turned over on Whiting street just north of Hart's corner.
