IF it is not within the province of the council to prevent by ordinance, the tax assessors should give the matter aftention and increase the taxable valuation of the property, especjally as these billboards bring a larger return to the property bwners, considering the amount expended, than would be received in rentals from the average dwelling house. The past week the eyesors in the billboard line that has long disgraced the corner of Bank street and Mon- tauk avenue was taken down and all the people were happy, But hardly had the old material been removed, when the public happiness was turned to hatred for the owner of the prop- erty, for now a new and larger bill- board is in course of comstruction, It is being substantially built and is in- tended for a long term of service, That piece of preperty is among the most valuable in the’ city, being I i it is classed as a vacant Jot, it is not taxed for one-tenth of its actual value, in comparison with preperty in the immediate vicinity, though it has been a seurce of income to the present own. er ever since he possessed the prop- erty and with the new and larger-bill- board the income will probably be ma- terially increased, If vac to be used for billbeard purposes; rath- er than for buildings, purely on a count of a large income from no outla on the part of the property owner it is about time that such properties were fully taxed. If this were done build- ing of needed houses would be encour- aged, for the lots would not be held tong as unproductive real estate, espe- cially if the owner's chief aim in life was to have an accumulation of the COMPANY. ‘o terrific Fhowers of the late after v i 2 7 4 p S K 3 - { provides eatertainments to which peo- Philadeiphia, Pa Sty Louis, Mo, Mgy were pered by (he iamps | ple can drive in automobiles,—Clevi W3 2 wmaghins Rg jew, Were ia- )land Leader. almighty dollar. | Bhia mammets billessrd at the sor- in sanitary pac! | building. ne lots” are - oupons with every " home with t kages le—get the valuable Serv-us il it Ml food product yo hem.

It is not so many years |ago that a billboard was-located in {a lot adjoining the Harbor school he cit yauthorities made no determined aitempt to have the board removed, nor was there any increase {in the (ax rate.” Instead of attempting heroic measures, the city putchased the lot at a price which was six times more than the assessed value of the property. This action probably en- couraged the erection of billboards with perhaps the belief gaat they would enhance the purchaseable value of the lots where located, as was the case in the one near the Harbor school. It can be put down as fact that the jcitizens would not stand for a like transaction. The New London Business Men's | association is a very busy body, not only in business matters that. pertain to the industrial development of the city, but goes farther and has to do with matters that should be handled by the court of common council, the direct representative body of the peo- ple. Just at the present time the bus- iness men's association is actively in- terested in providing tenements for the increasing population occasioned by the increase of industries, as indi- uals possessed of spare capital do not seem inclined to invest in such enterprise, = The associatifon i pian- ning for a’ sort of auxiliary associa- tion whose object will be the erection of houses for hire or for direct sale, or houses for sale on easy terms on a sort of cooperative plan, There sure the city of a medium grade.

But it act in this important matter provided the much desired result is achieved. The presence of a big floating ap- paratus, with pile driver, boiler, en- | gine, ete, with po ul pumps, and pecial machinery for boring the river bed far, far below, and ascertaining the nature of the same for pier foun- dations, just north of the present rail- road briage, indicates that the prelim- | inary work of building the new rail- {road bridge has been commence a will not be many maons before there will be more working activity in con- nection with the constructive work of | the bridge. According to the statement of those who are in pesition to know the new bridge will not only be built as expeditiously a ible, bt it will years general or belore the of the assembly of 1915 adjourns, d tha perhaps the legislato: i be invited to participate in the formal opening of the new bridge to traffic. The offer of the railroad company to present the present bridge to the siate for highway purpos as been acce pied and a commission has been appointed to report upon the estimated cost of converting the bridge from railroad Lo public traffic use. At the time the | islature voted to accept the bridse it was represented that the state could acquire possession of the bridge.cha the style of draw and put it into con- dition for public use at an expense not in excess of $250,000. it is sull believ ed the work can be accomplished for that sum and that there will be no un- necessary delay in the transfer ani { conversion. It is a reasonable bet that the bridge, the new one, will be completed before ocean steamers are landing at the state pier, for which the state gener- ously appropriated $1,000,000, through the almost superhuman efforts of the then senator and now Mayor and Con- gressman Mahan. That appropriation was made at the 1911 session of the general assembly, and an attempt to recall the appropriation was defeated at the 1913 session, but up to date there is no visible evidence that there is anything doing in the pier building line. True, plans are said to be com- pleted from the engmeering stand- point, drawn by the resident engineer and approved by the consulting engi- neer and the commissioners, that sat- isfactory arrangements have been made in regard to ths possession of land for the approach, and all the nec- essary preliminaries, but to the unini- tiated there is nothins tangible to in- dicate that there is Lo be real active building work at the present time.
