TOWN MEETING RAISES TAX 1 1.2 MILLS Town Requires $95,000, Which Neces- s the Raising of the Tix. Danielson, April 1.— Kil“ngb’s tax rate was - jumped from 15 to 16 1-2 mills at the ad- journed annual town meeting Monday evening and April 29 was set as the time for correction. The meeting was very Jargely -attended. Selectman Charles A. Downes explained in detafl the financial means of the town for the remainder of -the current fiscal year and submitted fisures to show that $95,000 would be required to meet the gross financial requirements of Killingly. More than $21,000 will come back in credit, however. so the net needs will' just overtop $74,000 which sum can be raised by a 16 1-2 mill tax on the new grand list. Creatly increased costs of commodities re- quired in running the town's business and increased labor cost are respon- sible for the decided increase in the budget. The meeting adopted the budget presented by the selectmen after rescinding the budget vote that was passed at the special town meet- ing in November. All of the matters that were' on the warning for a special town meeting held after the adjourned annual meet- ing were unfavorably acted upon. The propositions ificluded revaluation of the property of the town, on paving for teams that are on town work $7 a day. Attornev Harry E.

MINERAL SPRINGS OF ALASKA, Hot springs are widely distributed in Alaska, many of them yielding water that is near the boiling point and re maining unfrozen the year round. During the Russian oceupation of the Territory primitive bathing houses were built at several hot springs, ne- tably near Sitka, and the hygienic value of the springs was recogniszed, In recent years more elabprate bath- ing establishments have been con- structed at several accessible hot springs, but some that are mere diffi- cuit of access are occasionally visited by prospectors. The demand for more accurate information about the qualities of the therman waters led to an investigation whoee results are get forth in' a recent puwblication of the United States Geological Survey, Department q.tA the merm—-mnem Springs by Gerald A.
