SHEPARD formed in Hartford and then removed to this eity.” Mr" Sank w in 130 Mr. opinion that, the gemeral i cerned themselves too much - about the expenditure of the monéy than in the manner in which It was raised. He told of the well known theory that the real estate owner pays too much of the tax as it discourages many from budld- ing and there are few things which tend towards patriotism as having & home of your own. The er also mentioned the fact that there has been a demand for further for state highways, the state and the hospitals. He said that he was not in favor of the plan of @ bond issue for moad building at this time as the plan bas not been success- ful in other states’ and that there would be time to consider such action within the next ten years. Mr. Blodgett then explained the new taxes passed at the last general as- sembly of the state which include taxes on unincorporated mercantile and man- ufacturing establishments. This tax I3 one-tenth of one per cent of the gross income and is such a small sum as not to be conducive with the raising of prices. The state personal income’ tax which has been advocated is neither fa- vorable nor popular. ‘The tax on mov- ing pictures he said went half to the state and the other half to the various counties to help them defray: expenses. Mr. Blodgett said that the inereased @x on automobiles was to defray the state highway expenses and is to the ndvantage of the car owner. If a man pays out $20 for his automkbile tax per year, it is only costing him eight cents Der day for the privilege of using over $45.000.000 worth of highway which is in good condition and means that he I8 saving three or four times that amount in repairs, saying nothing of the added comfort ‘and gain of time whlle travel- ing. He eajd that the weakest point in taxation lay in the fact that as money was needed a tax was clamped on hers or there without regard ‘to harm it might be doing or to the justice of it. In conclusion he said that a commE- tee of reliable men, mot politicians, should be appointed, to see that justice is done in ‘regard to taxing. A rising vote of thanks was tender- ed Mr. Blodgett for His nsructive talk, The meeting was then adjourned at 2 o'clock by singlng one stanza of The Star Spingled Banner. At the amnusl meeting of the Young Men's Christian Assoeiation a resolu- tion was adopted to lease ihe building and its contents to an organization meeting with'the approval of the di- rectors, the organization to be separate from the Y. The community organization is to pay all costs ot maintenance, Tepairs, replacements, etc. The plans for /operating the buiiding will be formulated at a later meeting of social civic and fraternal organizations of ‘the city. The report of Secretary Custard was read. On suggestion of Judge Hinman it was voted not to elect officérs untfl a previous meeting. H A pubMc sign post, one of the his- torical landmarks of the city of Will: mantic, was removed from its location on the cormer of Railroad and Main streets by order of the board of select- men and placed on Church street on front of the old town hall This post dates back 230 years when the town of Windham wes Incomorated in May 1692, At that time the seat of gov- efnment and socfal activities was in Windham Center. Over a hundred years ago what {s now Willimantic be- came kfown as Willimantic Falls on account of the dips 'n the river. When the sign post was erected the town governmnet gave authority to use the same a3’ the officfal sign post of the town.
