Linder on Witness Stand ‘Thomas Linder, chairman of the hoard of asseasors and clerk of the board of adjustment, the first witness called by Attorney Donald Gaffney, counsel for the oil company. He identified a deed by which the applicant obtained title to the plot at Franklin square and Pearl street. Mr. Linder, it was brought out, h been chatrman of the board of as- scsors since 1926, and clerk of the adjustment board since its third meeting. He identified the zoning map and ideatified the plot as lo- cated in an industrial area. Church Within 200 Feet In response to questions by Attor- ney Gattiiey, he said the restrictions in residence districts are less than thede in- industrial areas, The plot on which the Emmanuel Gospel ehurch stands was scaled and found to be 168 than 200 feet distant from the oll company's holding. This was the nearest church to the plot, the testimony disclosed. Upon further questioning, it was entered in the record of the hearing that gasoline filling stations would be permitted on the Knighta of Co- lumbus property on the oppoaite corner of Franklin square and Pearl strest. this condition being attribu- table to the fact that the fratermal home is in a residence district. It was brought out that the pro- tested restriction was not contained in the draft of an ordinance which went from the zoning committee to the-common council, but was made by that greup. Before Tome Board Twice Mr, TAnder testified that the ques- tion of a filling station had been be- fore the committee twice. A specidl exception was in process of hearing whex'a ruling on the Masonic temple agpeal convinced members ‘of the board, of adjustment that they had ho power to act, and the application was withdrawn. A second hearing was ori a change of zone to permit filling stations to be piaced in indus- trial zones on the same conditions as in residence areas. namely, with- in 75 feet of churches and public buildings. This was recommended favorably, but rejected by the com- mon council. Judge John H. Kirkham, defend- ing for the city, brought out frem the same witnesees the fact that the restriction in industrial areas had teen considered at length, and had the witness reiterate his statements that the application for an exeeption had been voluntarily withdrawn be- fore decision was made. Galimey Questions Rutherford Inspector Rutherford was asked by Attorney Gaffney if the plans and specifications submitted in 1924 met @l requirements of the bullding de. partment with exception of the limi- tation of proximity to churches, and he replied aftirmatively. Inspectof Rutherferd, questioning @eveloped. was a councliman atd member of the ordinance committee in the period when adoption of zon- tng was bei ered. “Was this restriction on limits from. ehurches and public buildings | put in the ordii particular plot?"” asked. The inspector replied: one we had in mind." For purposes of the record, the in- spector was asked if he had refused permits for filling stations on the plot and he answered that he had on two occasions. ‘Why Limitation Was Cut Corporation Counsel Kirkham asked why the limitation was re duced in certain of the business areas, and the inspector said the protest of one large property own- er, in particular, and several others In a lesser - de; » had been re- sponsible, “Wan the fact that churches will be In session on Sundays when fac- tories are closed one of the condi- tions which prompted the refusal to cut the limitation in the indus- trial zone?” Judge Kirkham asked. The inspector could not recall that this argument had been used. Again asked why this particular plot had been ruled against, the in- spector said it was in deference to the congregations of nearby churches, Questioning by Judge Kirkham brought out that a restrictive ordi- nance was in effect just prior to soning and that filling stations were not permitted anywhere within 200 feet of churches and public bulld- tngs. nce to affect this Attorney Gaffney “That is the Drive at Ol Company Alderman Nalr, the next witness, was asked point-blank if the Stan dard Oil company's plot was the one in mind when the provisions of the industrial district were estab- lished. and he answered that such ‘Was the case. As chairman of the ordinance committee at the time, he ar- ranged for meetings, ward by ward, and the wishes of each dis- trict were considered and embodied in the law. The people of the Franklin square district were op. posed to a filling station on the plot and for that reason it was de- cided that a limitation of 200 feet would be imposed, the alderman pointed out. He mentioned Mr. Hatch as the property owner who objected to a similar limitation in other areas and sald the change was made on that account. 4 Rought Plot For Gas Station William J. Boylan, supervisor of service atations for the Standard O!1 Co., testified as to the purchase of the plot in question for the purpose of erecting a gasoline filling station. He presented a certificate giving the company permission to sell gasolina, the permit being dated September 21, 1923, Mias Jean Cochrane, deputy town clerk, read ordinances which pre- ceded the adoption cf the zoning law and those which amended the Judge Kirkham brought out that there were ordinance imposing reater restrictions before zoning was adopted than those which now obtain. Testimony was introduced to show that an attempt was made to lower the restriction as to gasoline filling stations in industrial districs and that, ‘after being adopted by the com- mon council and vetoed by the may- or, the veto was sustained. The may- or's veto e was read. It set forth that the change could help but one property owner and would be responsible for very unsatisfac- tory conditions on a main artery of traffic. berdered by public buildings. In his concluding statements to the court, Attorney Gaffney, pointad out that the plet was purchased as a site for a gasoline filling station that-all legisiation enacted, includ- ing the mayer's veto indicated a rive against the plot in question. lawyer argued that the restrics tions of & seme law provide greater protection of residence and business areas than in industrial sone where “anything but a public nuisance may be placed.” yet it is possible to bulld a gEseline flling station in a residence zone epposite the Standar.i Ol company's plot. “Judge Kirkham is here today at- tempting to justify an action which he. himself, knew should not have been taken.” the lawyer concluded. The New Britain cerporation coun. #¢l pointed to the wording of the en. abling act by which 2ening was es- tablished. This gives the city the Tight te make different restrictions ofr different zones. “It must be proved,” he argued, “not that the restriction is different in one zone than another, for that is sanctioned by the statute, but that the restric- ion is an unreasonable one. We had such a restriction there before zon- ing and it ia therefore not an im- proper one. There was no discrimin- ation against the Standard Oll Com- pany, although it might be claimed that there was discrimination against churches, public buildings, etc, when a lesser restriction was permitted in other zones,” Judge Kirkham insisted. Judge Yeomans, on suggestion of the two attorneys set one week for ihe filing of briefs, examination of which will precede his ruling.

Drives Many Miles With Bag on Running Board When Charles E. Bpooner of At- lantic, Mass., reached into the rear of his car while going" through Windsor today for his traveling bag, he found the bag was missing. The surprise was no greater than that to Deputy Sherif Martin W. Horwitz of his city who traveled to Farm- ington and back to New Britain last evening hefore he discovered there was a strange traveling bag on the running board of his car. The bag Was not marked and it was not until this afternoon that Mr. Horwits as- certained its ownership. Mr. Bpooner parked his car last night in a parking space back of the Burritt Hotel, immediately along- side Mr. Horwits's car. When he went to drive away he set his bag on the running board of the Horwite car, unlocked his own car, jumped in and drove off, the bag on the other car. Last night Mr. Horwitz drove Farmington to a ‘dinner given tp Harry Hatsing, and returned, not noticing until he arrived - in New Britain that the bag, which is said to be worth about $76 was on his running board. This afternoon Mr. Spooner re- turned to the hotel where he ob- tained his bag stating that he hai missed the bag while going through ‘Wiadsor.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, MAY 2, 132, PRIGES REBOUND ON NEW BUYING WAVE Call Mowey Unchanged—Whet o i New York, May 28 M—The atorn of selling which has been aweeping through the stock market for the past week appeared to have run its course, at least temporarily, today, and prices rebounded in brisk fash- len under the influence of strong buying support. A few weak apots cropped out here and there, presum- ably in refiection of the closing out of weakened marginal accounts. But mast of the industrial railroad lead- ers® met strong support from the outset of the market, Call Mowey Unchanged Call money renewed unchanged at € pér cent and appeared to be in fairly plentiful supply at that fig- ure. Recent liquidation undoubted- ly has released a large volume of credit and probably obviated the possibility of a sharp “money pinch” at the end of the month. Barring any sharp revival of bullish ac- tivity within the next two days, Wall 8treet expects a sizeable reduc- tion - in brokers’ loans this week, preliminary estimates ranging from $100,000,000 to $300,000,000. Speculative opinion is still sharp- ly divided as to whether the current rally marks the end of the decline or is merely & temporary rebound. THE MARKET AT 3:30 P, M, (Furnished by Putnam & Co.)
