Due to ecircumstances bevond the control of boraugh officials, the in- crease in the berough's debt for the fiscal year that ends with the pres- ent month will be $6,273.10 gross, this to be considerably reduced later by returns from sewer assessments. The annual report of Warden Har- ry E. Back reviewing matters of pub- Tic ‘nterest for, the past year follows To the Electors of the Borough of Danielson: The fiscal vear of the borough, about to close, shows an increase of $6,273.10 in the municipal debt. This Tesult was brought about for the most part, two causes. The expense thrown upon. ‘the treasury by the jublic ‘from the epidemic of infantile paralysis, which raged in New Eng- land and’ the Middle States, last sum- mer, and by the unexpected high- cost of sewer construction, because of. ab- normal rock excavations,” and of the delays in construction because of the scarcity of labor. There will, how- éver, be-assessments of benefits upon this” extension of the ‘sewers which will im subsequent years bring about $2,600 into the treasury, so ‘that the actual increase of debt this year is $1.00 to $4.00 CHlLDRp"S COATS Certieenies...$1.50 to 3&00 between 35,500 and $4.000. prosperity and growth general 5= ‘ot tatrasiaess and in population has continued during: the year.

A Dissatisfied Taxpayer writes: According to yesterday’s Builetin one would naturally think that this shameful condition of the main road was somethinz new when in fact it is quite an old story. For years it has been the same every spring, but not quite as bad as in the last two or three years. The first selectman of the town of Griswold has not been seen near Glas- £o In years but he claims to know the exact condition of the roads in all seasons of the year. Maybe he thinks he does but experience is_the best teacher. Let him agk the U. S. mail man, who has to over this road four times daily or let him ask anyone of the taxpayers in this end of the town who wants to get out and can’t because of the frightful condi- tions of this beautiful (?) road. But let him try them himself F'afl;ch Mother and the Rest of the Family Want Something.

The _search for the body of Nip- ly Laruso, drowned at Willlamsville, was _continued through Friday but with no success. Anxious to inter- ést many in the search, Samuel La- ruso, a cousin of the drowned man, has, stated that he will give $50 to anyone who finds the body, which may have fioated down the river. Brevities. _ The. graded schools in Killin closed Friday afternoon for the mflv er Friends here veceived Friday a sup- ply of Easter cards from the ever- Souvenir W. H. Taylor of m-smt- Doty and Miss C. best of all, Just once. No less than six autos were pulled out of the mud between the Four Cor- ners and Glasgo last Sunday. As Mr. Dayon usually charges $1 per auto to pull them out of the mud, hve made a fair day's wagze. OmNe of the select- men of the town of Griswold has been known to get stuck or mearly buried in the mud at this spot, but they all seem to like the semsation or think that it is an unavoidable condition, too great to be overcome. A Jewett City doctor in attemptie to come to Glasgo Tuesday parted with his money for the same exp. ence. The marker nearly sank out of sight. Meat drummers from Norwich were stuck twice. One of the groc- ers from Giasgo got marooned with « broken harness right in the thickest 1 it " The first selectman's clalms that the town has no money to fix roads and he even goes on to say that the roads right around Jewett City are as bad, if not worse, than the road from the Four Corners to Glasgo. Neither he nor anyone else can find a main’ road in sach’ deplorable condition in. the state of Conne: U onsiaccing the Tact that about $2.- 000 goes into the town treasury an- nually in taxes from Glasgo alone, it would seem only right that these tax- pavers should have a road that they could use twelve months in & year, in- stead of ten months. Let us.all earnestly hope and pray that the voters of the town will awake from their slumbers before next elec~ tion!

The United States is now consum- ing nearly two-thirds of the world's India rubber. A compilation by the National City bank of New York of the world’s rubber proiuction and the share consumed by ths United States shows that the exports of rabber from the various producing areas of the world In 1916 were approximately 443,000,000 pounds, while the United States in that year imported 270,000,- 000 pounds, or 61 per cent of the total quantity entering international trade. This indicates a rapid growth in the share which the United States is taking of the world’s rubber despite the fact that the output has increased with phenomenal rapidity in recent years. In 1913, the year before . the war, our imports of rubber were ap- vrvxinamy 50 per cent of the world’s :nkcm SuppLy, the gxvorts, of ‘rub- r producing countries in that year having been 242,000,000 pounds, and our own imports 116,000,000 R World exports of rubber increased i Quantity Just 100 per cent. in the four years from 1912 to 1916, while the %rfi of the United States _in- 129 per cent In the same mg— | United dtates in the last ddzen ¥ and $200,000,000 worth of rubber ame pe world's rubbey. eupply has come en- tirely. from- the rubber piantations of the Orient, while has declinéd meantime. ufactures exported in the the forest product ] o The quantity Our exportation ubber cxported from the Oriental countr tures has grown v rapidy; - in which rubber is produced exclu-|been in 1914 but $12,000,0 nd sively on plantations and not as a 1916, $34,000,000.
