TAFTVILLE The first Hallowe'en affair was the cos- tume party given by Mrs. Andrew Froh- mader at her home on Dion street Satur- day evening. The house was attractively TODAY AND TOMOBROW' Kostan Elukowleh, 37, of 183 Roose- velt avenue was struck and instantly kil- ed with'the - he was driving Sun- day morning about 9.30. o'clock at the Eighth street railroad crossing of .the Worcester branch of the N Y., N. H. & H, R. R. 'The accident happened about half an hour before the flagman goes on duty at the crossing on Sundays. .. Hlukowich, whe has recently bought what is known as the Ed Sherman place on Roosevelt avenue, was on his o driving his horse and wagon. As he reached the crossing he was struck by & south-bound extra consisting of two. engines and a caboose. .

We call Mr. FitzGe: ald’s attention to. the statement in the day. after his'electlon as mayar, in which, the, statement was. made, * “Thers is no doubt that the board of finance has’ estimated the probable income m)-[ erally ‘so as not to be competled to raise the tax rate during this period of- wide- ! spread distress and business depression. To have estimated this income conses tively would have meant the imPosition of a thirty.mill tax ate. . . ..The board of finance therefore simply had a choice beétween ~estimating the city's income lberally in order to hold the tax-rate down or estimating it . conservatively and running- the' tax rate up. They chose the former.course. In our judg- ment this action of the finance board will méan a deficit for the coming year added to the deficit that the city ai- ready has, , " “Does Mr. FitzGerald remember controversy between his board of nance and’ his' tax collector in New Ha- ven back ip June when it was shown! that the apparent method of his admin istration in New Haven was to over- timate tax collections so that the esti- mates of runming the city at the firs: part of the year be radded regardiess of the fact that at the close of the year there has always been an ever increas- ing deficit? We would quote the ful lowing which was stated publicly b, Mr. FitzGerald's tax collection depa ment at the time of this controversy “‘On the personal tax enrollmemt ot 1921 there are 75383 names, including duplicates and names of persons exempt to the number of 2,486. Now if every person on . the - enroliment, including those exempt, should pay the personal tax, there would be collected $150,765. The board of finance, however, estimat- ed that 148 per cent or $225,000 would be collected this. year on ‘this item. Therefore, it is up to the collettor lo collect 148 per cent or about $75,000 more than is collectible!’” “Can Mr. FitzGerald explain this? “Does he know about it? ‘Does he know that his tax collector in New Haven last .June publicly stated that $1,420,349 had been the total mis- calculation in the amount' of : taxes: to th2 a- decorated in orange and hlack, with black cats and witches. The guests wore carnival costumes, many of them being dressed a3 infants, one arriving in a baby cafriage, with rattle and nursing bottle, in ‘care of an older sister, and captured first prize.
