Another point that strengthens our belief that Mr. Hoover will no have exactly the same government- al policies as Mr. Coolidge bhas had is the fact that since the election the pair have not met and do not seem angious to risk the embarrassment of a tete-a-tete on governmental policies. 8o just before Mr. Hoover gets clope to Washington Mr. Cool- idge dodges to an island off the coast ot Georgl: 8o far have we progreseed in con- quering nature that while one of our rellow citizens—Frank Fritson—is with Commander Richard Byrd in the Antarctic regions his mother hero is able to receive messages from him and also send some to hel son. For practical purposes, it is if the South Polar cap explorer were in Plainville, GIVE A NEW MAYOR TIME TO THINK The basic documest underlying the government of New Britain is the charter, and unlike the Consti- tution of the Usited States, it is flexible; it canm be changed almost at will. Consequently charter-chan ing st regular {imterv is & great indoor sport at City Hall. The big wigs, get together, discuss the ex: periences of the -past, contemplate the-probable needs of the future, snd come to mere or less sccuratc conclusions as to what additions ‘or can be regarded somewhat in the light of a mayer's cabinet, one gimi- larity being that the mayor, like the President, is not bound to take ad- vice from any of his eateilites, but is more inclined to give advies | “Thers is an tmportant difterence, which moat effectively | upsets the apple cart.

The mayor of New Britain, when clected, is confrented with an en- tirely different situation. He has no | four months in which to analyze the | gifts of citizens for commissioner jobs—certainly not if the proposed change were to go into effect. He woyld have to make his choices al- most instanter, thus running the | risk of choosing men so ill-fitted to ‘bo commissioners that the result in | many cases would be civic tragedies. [Under such a system, indeed, his | choices would be ultra-political; and, {we think, the pressure for the | scheme comes trom political sources | who wish to be assured of a thor- | oughly political complexlon to the | commissioner-cabinet just as soon as |2 new mayor Is thrown City Hall. | The present |enough. 1t gives a new mayor time o think beforc fooling with the commissionership buzzsaw; and it | he desires to see efficiency in prac- |tice as well as in theory, he need { ot ask for the rexignations of out- | standing commissioners regardicss lof politics, a practicc which | fortunately bas Leen followed to some extent in this city.

Anyway, here is one item in this charter revision business which de- serves a yell of warning by the look- out in the masthead. It has to do with & change in the method of Leeping the commissioners of a de- frated mayor in action until a new mayor takes the helm and appoints new commissioners.

For this reasen, it is declar- ed. sundry apartments are ynoccu- pied and the value ef buildings ha: decreased, or the eyes of tIi» assessors. Some ob. helieve that the ef- ticeable in the grand servers even fect will be list. | Perhaps it-is more logical to say that the city Bes reached normaley. After having suffered from a dwell- ing stringency some years ago, then gradually returning to a cenditien where there were enough dwellings 'to pass around, and then reaching the point where there is & surplus of dwellings—as at present—we find ourselves as § city in the cen- dition before the stringency set in. | For years before the war the pre- [vailing realty bellef seemed to be that more houses than there were occupants was a normal condjtion |1t this is true, then it must be evi- dence we have returned to s natur- |al condition in the real estate market. | Regardless of the overplus of dwellings. or apartments, censtruc- | tion of new abodes continues unabat- ed. In the long run the newer houses gain the preference and the older places elther find it difficult to gain tenants or thelr owners, in order to | attract trade, must make extensive ' modernizing alterations or make way for the censtruction of new buildings. Unless the city experi- ences a sudden industrial boom it is not likely that there will be an even balance between the supply and demand in the nearb: There has been a decline since the heavy ‘building operations ot 1926, [but it must not be overlooked that some of the construction jobs during [that hoom year were unusually lurge. The decline in 1927 was merely in figures, there having been @ decided increase tn the construc- tion of dwellings and apartments that year. The income of the build- ing department, despite lessening figures. increased during the year, bearing out the records that small jobs Increased, fecs belng essential regardless of the xize of the job. So spotted is the record, howcver, that ' August in 1927 surpassed the boom August of 1926. And even in ] there four mentha during which building operation permits cx- coeded those for similar months of 1927 namely Januery. April, July (nearly three times the total of the 'previous record) and October. Aug. 1928, on the other hand, years, were ust in <howcd only a quarter as many per- mits as the previous August. A gratifying develapment is’ that we are much more concerned over the quality of inspection accorded new buildings than was the case during the boom ycars. Experience has taught & noteworthy lesson Here and there buildings which were constructed during the boom have Leen found lacking in reasenable quality and the city owes it to eiti- zens to guard against repetitions of {such difficulties. An adequate in- spection service, such as the build. ing department has cuggested, secins essential.
