The Rhode Island Tax Officials’ Se- ciety, composed of the assessors and town clerks, past and present, held its annual outing at Rocky Point Wednes- day. After a shore dinner there was a; business meeting at hich there wasj discussion of fhe uniform date of as- sessment law which becomes effective January 1. There was also a general consideration of the several new laws relating to \taxation enacted at the last session of the legislature, especially the recent decision of the supreme court g the laws regarding taxes on The town council police ~ committee, Councilmen Datson and Harper, held a the congested t railway made so by operators traffic conditions opposite station in Railroad avenue, the action of certain jitney who persist in parking cars at that point and hawk for business upon the arrival of trains. They are not permit- ted to selicit on iroad property which fronts on the avenue, the station proper being more than sixty feet dis- tant, therefor they line up near the side- walk and solicit at a distance. The trolley car terminal is directly in front of the station. It is here where the cars meet or pass, and the congestion caused by the jitneymen interfere materially| with that line of traffic. The passenger und baggage privilege the the railway station are leased by George Hoxie and he has sublet the pas- senger privilege to specified jitheymen. In rtaliation the other jitneymen make the demonstration that causes the con- gestion. Police Chief Brown, who is al- so superinendent of public vehicles, has =7 ! their vehicles moving or even parking in { { | i i i | i i thir rights, and doubted the authority of the chief to prevent them from keeping engaged lroad avenue, and they unsel to urge their claim. Chief Brown and Messrs. Peck and O'Leary of the trolley company were at the meeting of the police committee, and there was thorough discussion of the sub- ject. The yolice committee decided that the congestion of traffic there must cease and the offending jitneymen desist fromj their demonstfation at the railway sta- tion. Chief Brpwn was assured that his action would be approved by the council. There was also a gemeral discussion of the jitnéy situation, as to the varied arges, and excess charge for crossing e bridge into Pawcatuck. At present the charges are at the option of the jit- heymen, the only requirement being that the rate be posted in the automobile. It is now expected that the matter of estab- lishing zone rates, and general regulation of the jitney service, will be considered at the next meeting of the town council.
