Cities Escape. But Private Corporations
‘ Must Pay at Present
HARTFORD, June 15.-—-Solscor
nlnkoslee today asked committee
chairmen in the senate to hustle along
any appreciation bills that they might
have. as part of the appropriations
committee did not intend to remain in
session all summer. The house bill
taxing land used for water supply by
municipalities was called up by Sen-
ator Arnold. who moved its rejection.
The house had thinned the bill over
an unfavorable report. Senator Mid
dieton said that it was only fair that
a small town should hpve some com
[narration for land taken out of the
grand list by the cities. He said that
private water companies are obliged
to pay taxes on land that they use in
small towns as a water shed. but cities
take the land and the towns stiffer.
