Windham, sald Thursday afterneen that he had decided to call a meet- ing of the board at an early date, and invite the board of selectmen and the town clerk to attend same for the purpose of arranging to ask the voters of the tewn for a complete revalua- tion of all property in the town, at a gpecial town meeting called for that specifio purpose, Chairmen Wilcox sald that he was of the opinion that this was the best ¢gpurse to pursue in order ihat some feasible plan might be properly out- ilned and prepared already for sub- misgion fo the voters of the town for ratification or disapproval. While he did not wish to assume any authority that dld not belong to him, he said that he censl\lenfln{t perfectly proper for the hoard of assessors to take the initiative in the all important ques- tion, Y A revaluation has been adve- catad the town for a number of rs, But never in the history of the Zdvn bas the sentiment in favor of the proposition been so strong as it is at the rresent time.

In the Endeavor to Settle Grievance of Silk Weavers. Albert Hibbert, general secretary- treasurer of the Textile Workers of America, was in town Thursday, Wed- nesday evening he attended a speclal meeting of Local No. 716, Silk Weav- ers’ union, who are employed by the Windham Silk company. Mr. Hibpert was here for the purpose of hearing the facts about a small grievance the union hes against the silk company celative to the price paid on a certain grade of woven goods. Mr. Hibbert walted on the silk company Thursday afternoon, but was mformed that the company’'s manager, Capt. Charles Pentoy, was out of town and would not be back until Saturday. Mr. Hib- bert said that the matter is still in an unsettled condition and that in all jrobability President John Golden of fhe Textile Workers would be present and neet with the local union at its meeting pext Mcnday evening or would at any rate be here to confer with the officigls of the Windham Siik company relative to a satisfactory ad- Jjus‘ment of the little difficulty. Mr. Hibbert met with the Swift Spoolers’ local, No. 671, Thursday eve- ning and delivered an address, the text4 of which was not made public, Slow About Taxpaying. The rersonal tax collector said on Thursday afternoon that the way the meun of Windham are paying their tax for the year 1811 would indicate that they lelieved that the payment of the tax on the list for 1910 was the only one for which they are liable, but all such will walke up some fine day to the realization that the pavment of the personal tax is an annual event for all until an age of 60 has been at- tained £nd the awakenigg may not be pleasant for some, ien May Have Clean- Up Day The annual! meeting of the W mautic Civic assoc'ation is to be hela Monday evening in the rooms of the Willimantic board of trade, ac- cording to the provisions of the con- stitution.
