NORWALKS VITAL. ISSUE
There are times in the lives of
every man when he is forced to
stand firmly on his feet and de-
clare himself, fearlessly and with-
out prejudice.
bridge be so overwhelming that
as to the general sentiment of the
people. ‘
The bill itself is as near perfect
as time and brains can make it.
It provides for a concrete
bridge and steel draw, to take the
place of the present one;flto be
$250,000, to be raised in bonds.
..The construction of the bridg’e
is to be left to a committee,
named in the bill, who shall be
the sole agents of the town in the
work and who shall have to do
with everything pertaining to
purchase of land for thelbridge
and park; the construction of the
bridge and park; the disposition
of the old bridge, and the handl-
ing of any litigation which “may
arise out of the purchase of land,
construction of bridge and park
or disposition of the old bridge,
WITH AND BY THE CON-
SENT AND APPROVAL OF
THE TOWN, as dictated by the
voters assembled in special.,town
meetings or at meetings adjourn-
ed from thatof March, 1910.
The document further provides
that if for any reason the voters
should deem it necessary and ex-
pedient that the personnel of the
committee should be changed, or
should any vacancies occur in
the committee, these changes can
be made or these vacancies filled

That time is at hand now, when
every voter in Norwalk must so
declare himself. A1e you in fa- ,

opposed to it?
The issue below the people of
The Norwalks today is a vital‘
one. _
Vital in that the future Norwalk.
depends largely—yes. it might be
said wholly—~upon what the vot-
ers of Nonvalk do at the speciali
election which will probably be
held within th1ee weeks.
Vital because the 1esult will
brand the policies of two cities
and district and the town as be-l
lug plogtcssive or 1"‘6110g1cssive. i
We commend the issue to theI
voters of the town fo1 their ear-1
consideration!
and we impress upon every voter;
the fact that nobody should castl
his ballot unless he has consul»
e1cd the question earnestly andI
impaitially.
The possibilities of this great
impiovcment are not to be over—1

this matter.
To those who are opposed to.
the bridge, it might with prom
priety be asked. Why?
If this objection is purely a per»
sonal one. it Si‘lOllid not hold for
a moment.
No voter should permit his own
pcruonal prejudice to enter into a
question of great municipal im-
provemcnt.
The question to be considered
by everyone is as to the feasibil-
ity and practicability of the prop-
osition from the standpoint of
citizen as regards his municip'd?
ity, of which he inn heavy stock-

li is not a qumnion as to the
benefits to be derived personally»:
at this particular time. although
the future will prove that the con»
struction of this bridge will bear»

town. financially and otherwise.
The point to be taken into con»
sideration is above your own new

assoc-odd inhabitants.
Nor is it idealism to look
above the personal plane for the

government and welfare of his
town.
