TROUBLESOME TRAFFIC LONG OUR “BOULEVARD"” Traffic along West Main street over the week-end seems to be more continuous than along the Boston Post road through Berlin. At the in- tersection of the Post road and Farmington avenue there always is at least one traffic officer on Sun- provements and a less ratio of school costs at the same time. Try to fig- ure that out cxcept on the basis of electioneering promises. { Improved streets cost money, too. Let an administration be the unfor- tunate possessor of a board of pub- lic works which neglects the streets and the howl will be an ominous re- days, and usually two; while at the | intersection of the road to Middle- town there is usually another officer.

TAX RATE PROMISE It will be noticed that almost every aspirant for mayor lets it be known that one of his chief planks for consideration is the promise that he will reduce the ta: te. They own to that about, but on the whole such promises are “old stuff.” They are ¥ various ways of quite passe. It is surprising that any- body takes cognizance of such prom- ises. They have been the staff of political life since candidates began running for office, or since candi- dates began to aspire for nomina- tions. It is as easy to make such a prom- ise as to roll off the proverbial log. | The city has certain needs and they must be met, and they usually cost money. No candidate is to declare that he will neglect the at pains legitimate needs of the city; which is by way of saying that an improve- ment that is really needed will not be overlooked. But find such an im- provement that doesn’t cost money, or which lacks an influence on the tax rate. Most of them have a dis- tressing influence upon the rate. There are many citizens, too, who judge an administration what it “saves.” more by what it There is nothing more de- does than by ‘vastating to be said against an ad- it “do-nothing times oat of ministration than to let reputation of being a administration.” Nine ten such lack of activity be added to the normal the administration tha the get nerely must activities of follows.
