My Dear Sir:
on the "Committee on Consolidation"
appointed by the business men of Nor-
walk at their banquet Tuesday even
ing it appears to me that their ac-
tion amounts simply to a counter move
to defeat what South Norwaik is seek-
ing to bring about, and, therefore.i
runlint in anywise indorse it A year
ago I thought the whole township
should be consolidated into one large
itty but a careful study of conditions
has changed my mind and I now him
have that division is the best solution
of our government problem. We have
tried consolidation for many years
townwise. and the results havo not
been successful therefore,l do not
think anything is to be gained by try-
lng practically the same experiment
aver again under the name of “city "
We have been conducting our city at-
fairs in this community for; nearly
thirty-three years. and I think the Leg-
islature should permit us to take a
step further and become a town by
ourselves. Yours very truly,
MORTIMER M. LEE,
