Got All Taxes in 7 Towns. The pamphlet indicates that there are only seven towns in this state where on April 1, 1916, all taxes levied on the list of October, 1914, were collected: namely, the towns of Goshen, Norfolk, Torrington, Winchester, Clinton, Bssex and Say- brook. The total amount of taxes collected throughout the state on the list of 1914 on the above-mentloned date was 93.4 per cent. or I The total amount lected on April 1, which were levied on the list of 1914, was $1,135101.12: whedeas the total of all uncollected taxes throughout the state on all lists amounted to $2,651,703.94. The lowest tax rate levied on the list of 1915 was in the town of Will- ington, where the rate voted was but 4 mills, the lowest tax rate which has obtained In any town in_the state of Connecticut for @& number of years. On the previous vear's list, the tax rate voted in the latter town was 20 mills. Its grand lst, however, in | 1915 was increased 83672 per cent., | the largest-increase ever made in the vrand list of any town in the state Conmecticut <during the year. The explanation of the increase is that a very weslthy taxpayer in the town of 'Willington died, and bis estate, made up.of a’great:deal: of intangibie property, was put ‘into-the local tax list rather than hewe such property registered with the state . treasurer.

Mr. Buckland made th, important announcement that the work will be completed before next football and workmen are beginning al- ready the work of laying the tracks. The football traffic is the heaviest con- centrated traffic of the year, with some to 40,000 persons to be handled d out within a few hours, Tuch difficulty has been experienced handling this traffic in the past with the present facilities and it is ex- pected that there will be a big relief under the new plan, Mr. Buckland tol that the conges- tion during the last yvear emphasized the defects of t rtation facilities on the main line showed that New | London and New Haven were the Worst spots on the line—New London because_there is only one track across the bridge, where freight must be pulled, and in New Haven, where it is impossible tc get a free movement of freight on account of lack of sufficient kage. He said it is desirable to get four sets of tracks in New Haven, but the difficulty was due to the loca- tion of the station. He admitted that the city should have a new station, and that the road is not Indefinitely postponing the idea of such a station. but will build it as soon as it has the money.
