His state- ment clears up a matter which has been causing considerable discussion among many of the townspeople dur- ing the past weck. | Many people voiced the opinion | that a drive could nbt be conducted without receiving the official sanc- tion of the town authoritics. This | however, is not necessary and officially the campaign is beln; | backed by town authorities as names on the various committees show. The permanent lib committee con- | sisting of 12 separate groups formed by the Plainville Chamber of Com- merce is made up largely of men who hold public office. | In the case of a drive for a pub- |lic improvement or necessity, it is |the custom for some organization. generally the Chamber of Commerce, to handle the details of the campaign and later request the town to accept money that has been raised. This was the case recently in New Britain | when the Chamber of Commerce conducted a drive for a new public golt course and then turned the| | money over to the park board at a special me | Others have the opinion that the | committee seeking funds is planning | to actually supervise the erection of | the library without consulting the | town. This is also a misunderstand- | ing, as the town will have the final| say in cverything in conncction with | the erection of the new building. There is also considerable -con- fusion as to just what was contain- ed in the Mastin will. To clear up this matter, the terms of the will arc | being made public again. Under the will of the late George D. Mastin of Plainville, who died July 6, 1927, th library is to receive annually thein- | come from one-half of Iis personal estate to be used for the purchase of books and works of art suitable for a public library collection. And in addition this will provides a val- | uable site for a free library building | conditional upon acceptance by the | town of Plainville within three months after Mr. Mastin's death. The property was accepted by the town at a special meeting and this alone proves that the public officc | holders are strongly hehind the present campaign. Enthusiasm is still running high among the towns- | people and plans are being made for | numerous social affairs. The Herald | | prints the above statements with the | hope of clearing up the doubts o | those who question drive. 1 should result in the campaign re- ceiving more supporters. The funds are steadily growing each day and are nearing the desired total.
