Frank W. Coy Prods Committee For Delay Regarding Light and Power Co. Investigation—Matter Left to Town Solicitor—Deeds of Land from Ethel Burnet Accepted—Moore Mill to Be Enlarged. Frank W. Coy, of the special com- mittee of the Westerly Board of Trade appointed to cooperate with a like committee of the town councll, in the matter of requesting the public utilities commission to give public hearing in Westerly of the alleged un- just and discriminating rates charged by the Westerly Ligh and Power com- pany, appeared at the regular meet- ing of the town couftil on Monday. He asked if the town council had re- ceived any communication from the utilities commission in response ta the complaints ordered forwarded to the commission a month ago. Clerk Whipple replied that he had received no advice from the commigsion, and had forwarded no complaint. Mr. Coy said he had been informed that the ‘commission had held a pre- | liminary hearing and that upon the request of counsel for the Westerly Light and Power company, action had been deferred, and that a date had been set for another hearing. He sug- gested that the clerk be requested to write to the public utilities commis- sion and ascertain the date of hear- ing, and then notify the board of trade committee of the date, so that the promised proof in substantiation of the charges could be produced. Town Solicitor Agard stated that Mr. Coy knew that he (Agard) ana not Clerk Whipple had this matter in “harge, and farther that he had ad- vised Mr. Coy of just what had been one to_date. Mir. Coy said it was the town coun- who accepted the responsibility of ng for investigation by the utili- s commission and that the clerk was e proper person to conduct the cor- the coun- cil. Solicitor Agard stated that th special matter had been referred t him as town solicitor and that he had filed the formal complaint with the public utilities commission, with the request that public hearing be held in Westerly and believed he would re- e notice’ 0f any hearing that was proposed. He had received no such notice. He had received word from counsel for the Westerly Light & >ower company, that owing to pre- cengagement and for his accom- modation, the commission had defer- red action on hearing. Solocitor Agard 1id he had not received from the | ‘ommunication any notice of post- | ponement, or of any date set for the rearing. In response to a query from Coun- ad received no notice from the utilities commission, except ac- dzement of the receipt of the nt, and that he had so inform- Coy. r. Coy said there seemed to be < of business method in this ma and that it would be more busi- procedure and that the ac- of the council would be more znified if represented by the clerk to the public utilities commission. * Councilman Haswell said he could t quite understand the public util- i‘ies commission giving a hearing to the defendant and barring the com- plaicant. By vote the whole matter s left with Town Solicitor Agard, to tigate at his convenience. Frank W. Coy, representing proper- iy owners on Misquamicut avenue Watch Hill, asked the council if rade could not be established for a ade from the Watch Hill road to the imicut inn. The old boardwalk cut now out and a srade is es- 1 for the building of perman- idewalks. He said the council the required data for the grade he asked that it be officially es- neilman Flynn asked Mr. Coy if would assure the council that new tewwalks would be built as soon as was established. Coy replied that he would give sich rance, but with an es- ished grade that section of Hill would be built upon, and ticved that if the grade was es- ed when first asked for there i he a dozen houses there now. incilman_ Flynn stated that he of the impression that the es- Lment of a grade along that would place the town at a ense to solve the surface wa- blem, oy said that owners of that and 1dioining property had agreed to the laying of cement piping through pri- a (AVATOV IV NOANK Cfol Pupils Having Vacation—Picce Steel Still in Lawrenco Chute's ly—Camp Fire Girls Forward reo!

Clerk Whipple heer announced that he town council, on April 6. 1914, haa voted to grade Misquamicut avenue. ©On motion of Councilman _Larkin, matter was referred to the high- committee for investigation. he A communication was received from | the Smith Granite works asking for an established grade in Granite street, between Cross and Tower street. Or- lardo R. Smith, vice president and treasurer of the Smith company, ex- plained that the section of Granite street mentioned was a part of a state highway and was being worked Dby the state for a width of eighteen feet. It was desirable that the town cooperate with the state in the es- tablishment of a permanent grade. The matter was referred to the highway committee. John Catto, of Bradford, asked that the council provide street lights near the property of Michael Capalbo, as- serting that they were a public nec- essity. President Culley assured him that the matter would receive the consideration of the street light com- mittee. Mr. Cotto then made re- quest_that the road between Westerly and Bradford be made passable, and that immediate attention be given that stretch between Clark’s _corner and Bradford. Councilman Haswell sald that this road, as well as some others in the town, were in wretched con- dition_but that there were no funds available to put them in a permanent condition. The committee would give this section attention as soon as pos- sible, Deeds were received ; Burnet and others, transferring three valuable strips of land at Watch Hill, for highway purposes, which will aid materially in straightening the pro- posed new road. With the deeds was an agreement in which in considera- tion of the gift of land the town will leave the contingent property in re- spectable condition. The deeds were accepted and ordered recorded, and the president of the coun¢il and the clerk were authorized to sign the agreement on the part of the town. The resignation of Everett A. ingsley, as an assessor of taxes was accepted.. Mr. Kingsley is now em- ployed in the office of the state tax commission, and thereforc he did not consider it consistent to remain a: tax assessor in Westerly. The counc! did not consider it necessary to fill the vacancy and Mr. Kingsley’s successor will be chosen at the town election in June.

Councilman Cas- well told the council that this work was generally done by the board of trade, whose membership reaches over into Pawcatuck, and that then the an-up work is done in the twin vil- lages whose interests, especially in matters of this kind, are identical. Heretofore the town teams have as- sisted in the work. It was voted, on motion of Councilman Flynn, that the town's highway committee work in conjunction with the board of trade in the clean-up movement. The application of Daniel J.

M. of the Con- necticut District John Wooley, and P. P. G. M. of the Connecticut District Edward Cruicko. Introduced between the speeches were selections rendered by a quartet consisting of Messrs. Spargo, Fiddes, Laing and Opie and solos by Brother McDougal of Norwich, accompanied by Brother Robert Bethel. After the speechmaking a _social hour was declared which lasted until midnight. Sandwiches, pie, cake and coffee and cigars were served to the members and a jolly good time enjoy- ed by all. Music was furnished throughout the social by a three-piece orchestra, which was a big factor in enlivening the gathering.
