It was suggcst d that the commissioners meet the mayor in his office after their re- sular meeting.

When the commissioners werc | scated in the mayor's office, Mayor | Paonessa reminded them of the pro- gram they had ahcad for improving | and enlarging the city's water sup- | ply. He said that Engincer Williams | {was not experienced in this type of | work and suggested that the board | engage a more expericnced man for | the tasks ahead even if it had to pay | a larger salary. Chairman Hatch the work is under the supervision of Allen Hazen, a consulting en- gincer. He said Williams has charge of the detall work of construction. | Hazen draws all plans. According to fr. Hatch, the hoard felt that En-| zineer Williams was a good man for the place at the time he pointed because of his knowled conditions. There is no question that we can find better engineers, but will have to pay the price,” Mr. | Hatch concluded. Mayor Paonecssa admitted it wouid cost more, but he was worth the additional expenditure because of the million dollar program which was being planned. According to the hoard chairman the most important part of the work will not be done for about 13 or 16 years. Pelton Favors Williams Mr. Pelton said that New Britain could not afford to have a high pric cd engineer to do all the work. He said the Stanley Works, American Hardware, and Landers, 1ravy .«; Clark do not have high-salaried cn- | gineers.
