Town Meeting Must Vote Addlhcnnl Mills The :mprcarhm" aLJourned annual town meeting’ will proveé of more than passing interest to many rewidents’ of Kiliingly because of the fact that this | meeting- will be called upen to fix the tax rate for the ensuing year. This vear, dn accordance with the laws of the state, this rate must, be sufficient- Iy high to meet the appropriations re- quired to maintain the 'different de- partments -f the town, and there can be no dodging the issue by laying a tax that will not be sufficient to meet the expenditures. Whatever may have been the practice of dodging the is- Sue in the past matters little now. This year the matter of getting in enomgh tax money to meet the appropriations rust be met squarely. If the present rate of 15 mills will do it, all well :md good. Everybody will be more or less happ; If additional mills are " re- uuired they will have to be levied. There has been much talk over the claim that the distribution of taxation in Killingly is not properly equalized —that some taxpayers pay more than that they should, that others pay less than they ough! has been rational, more of it wild. There are extremists here on" both sides of the taxing question—those who do not want to pay what would be an equitable share, those who want cther people -to pay about all the taxes that the town.assesses. Between the two groups of extremists, however, ‘it would appear, are the masses of the taxpayers and voters who are anxions that only justice should be dome to ‘all. These will probably will be heard {rom at the adjourned meeting and ey will see to it, if possible, that no the nst burden is loaded . upon oulders of some who seem mafl(ed undue attention.’ New Owners of: Paine Farm.
