The Third district budget amount-

motion of Mary Henderson. At this

the Board had no say in the budgets

partment in the Fourth and Fifth
districts were taken up next. Coun-
cilman Michael Riordan. City Engin-
ccr Elmer Bracken and Street Com-
missl‘oncr Edward Duffy were pros-
ent to spehk on this budget. Mr.
Duffy stated that the reason for the
increases in a. number of the items
in the budgets was due to more pave-
ment and that it cost more to main-
tain it.

After the members of the Board
had been talking matters over
among themselves for some time,
“'llliam J. Devine asked if the pub-
lic was not going to be given a
chance to be heard on these bud-
gets and he was informed by Ms-
yor Robins that they would be given
an opportunity to speak on the vari-
ous items.

John McMahon then asked if he
might be heard and when given the
floor he stated that the present
method of collecting garbage was all
wrong and that in other cities col-
lection was let out on contracts. He
was of the opinion that we could
have garbage collected in this city
for much less than we are paying
at the present time. He told the
Board that if all the garbage col-
lected in the city in the last four
years had been put on the dump at
the end of Washingtonlstreet bridge
that a dike 50 feet wide and five
feet high would have been construct-
ed around the dump by this time.
He was in favor of replacing the
automobiles with horses. He asked
that a special appropriation of Si.-
600 be made for the purpose of
keeping a laborer on the dump so
that he would be present to take care
of all garbage dumped there.

Mr. McMahon stated that the
Bridge Commission had in the past.
been maintaining the Washington
street bridge out of a bond issue
and that if this was kept up there
would be no bond issue. He said
that the Bridge commission felt that
the city should appropriate money
each year for maintaining the bridge.
as it was badly in need of repairs.
He stated that the bond issue
amounted to 896.000 and that one-
third had been used for the purchase
of property for the park site and
that another one-third had been used
for the erecting of the public dock.
He ponted out that by erecting this
deck the City had received many
improvements to the harbor from
the government, which they would
not have received otherwise. He
asked that an appropriation of $8.-
000 be made to maintain the bridge.
Neville Bayley. manager of Roton
Point. called the attention of the
Board to the sidewalk leading from
Bell island along the beach to Helen
Point. He pointed out that it was
in a very bad condition and that he
thought that it should be repaired
before someone was injured. He also
called attention to the condition of
the road leading from Rowayton ave-
nue to Roton Point and asked that
something be done about appropriat-
ing money for the repair of this
road.

Dr. Ernest Barthel spoke on the
condition of Meadow street and
stated that it was in a deplorable
condition. He urged that repairs
be made and that something be done
about laying the dust.

John Fabrizzio of Magnolia avenue-
told of the condition of that street
and stated that it needed sewers.
He called attention to the fact that
many autos had become stalled there
during the winter.

A resident of Fillow street inform-
ed the Board that the road was in
a deplorable state and that efforts
should be made to repair it.

Frank Lindquist of Lorena street
was present and asked that an ap-
propriation be made for the instal-
ling of sewers in that street.
Robert M. “fay urged that the
Board appropriate the money for the
paving of East avenue and stated
that he was willing to take‘them all
for a. ride over this street at any time
and he thought that they would be
convinced of the necessity of paving
the street.

William J. Devine stated that if
the city did not receive State aid on
the paving of this street. it would
not be taxed in the Fifth district. He
said that he wanted the street paved.
but that if state aid was not re-
ceived it must be taxed in the Fourth.
He pointed out that it was illegal to
tax the widening of Washington

"Mr. Upham has served the party
as treasurer long and faithfully and
has been singularly successful in the
performance of the many exacting
duties of the office. and I know that
it will be with sincere regret that
his assistants learn of his retire-
ment. His party owes him a debt of
gratitude for his generous services."

Antagonism to Butler.

The resignation of Upham as well
as the ‘conlempiated resignation of
“'illlams results from the increasing
antagonism of the older Republican
leaders to what they term the auto-
cratic manner in which Butler is
handling the affairs of the party.
They complain bitterly that be con-
sults no one about anything and
that he is out to run the national
convention with its 1.109 delegates
as his personal show. “’hether this
is true or not. it is evident to the
newspaper correspondents that Mr.
Butler has at this time the final word
about everything except the minor
details of the convention.

Mr. Butler also made another sig-
niflcant announcement when he gave
out the names of three of the dele-
gates who will make speeches secs
ending the nomination of President
Coolidge. These three were Gov.
stickney of Vermont, Dr. George E.
Cannon of New Jersey and Mrs.
Florence Porter of California.

nomination of Dr. Murphree. presi-
dent of Florida University.

“1" Obey Instructions

Mr. Roosevelt was not sure that
Bryan would be found fighting Gov.
ernor Smith's nomination. and in-
timated that. although the opponent
of the Darwin theory of evolution
probably would be for McAdoo for a
short time to carry out the instruc-
tions of the primaries. he undoubt-
edly would have another candidate.

Colonel Byran was questioned as to
his choice. his only answer was that

street in the Fifth. He informed

the Board that he thought that these
matters should be done in a legal
manner.

John McMahon said that matters
were greatly complicated because of
the districts. He said that no dis-
trict under the charter had the
right to maintain property for ren-
tal to the City and that no district
had a right to rent buildings for
schools. He pointed out that the
Fifth district was paying taxes for
buildings erected on Second district
property and that the consolidation
had never been proper and that the
schools are still owned by districts
which had never been dissolved. He
pointed out that the Union school
district which was the only one in-
corporated had not been dissolved
and that there was still about 82.-
000 in the treasury. which could not
be turned over until the district was
dissolved. He said that .we should
forget the matter of the Fourth and
Fifth districts. He also informed the
Board that the Fourth district paid
88 per cent. of all the taxes.
William O'Dell urged that East
avenue be paved and told of the de-
plorable condition of this street.
John McMahon asked to be heard
on the Taylor avenue sewer. He said

tration that the sum of 81 .000 had
been appropriated for this work and
that bids had been callcd for and
that they had gone over the amount

ated for some other purposes. He

plan which includes Fairfield coun-
ty. He declared‘tbat the new asso-
ciation should appiont committees
on industry. transportation. regional
parks and park-ways. and regional
co-oporation. He declared that one
of the greatest problems to be faced
is the distribution of population and
industries. He said that there was
plenty of room for industries in the
county providing that the industries
were located in the most suitable
place. He spoke of the need of a
highway paralleling the Boston
Post road and said that plans for lo-
cation of such a road were already
out. He spoke of the need of secur-
ing land for parks in view of the in-
flux of industry into the county.
Philip L. Butterick, secretary of
the State Forestry association spoke
of the needs of Fairiield county in
parks and forests. Be it ed the
county .had the smallest percentage
of parks of any county in the State.
He declared that there was enough
waste land in Connectciut which. if
forested. would provide enough lum-
ber for the entire estate. He de-
clared that the State Forestry asso-
ciation was willing to aid the Plan-
nlng association in making a survey
of the county to determine where
state parksand forest may be lo-
cated. ‘

PLUNGE OFF NEW
CANAAN AVE
BRIDGE-ESCAPE

(Continued from Page One.)
llam J. Powell was notified. Chief
Powell ordered the Pioneer Hook
and Ladder truck out in case oasis-
lance was needed. The car. itself.
was later removed from the river
by means of a block and falls. It
Was a. iolal wreck; the only thing
being left in good working order
being the headlights and taillight
which Were still burning when the
car was pulled ashore.

Crowd at Scene.
A great crowd gathered the scene
as soon as the report of the accident
spread about the city. New Canaan
avenue and vicinity was a mass of
parked automobiles while their own-
ers peered curiously over the bridge
at the machine in the stream.. The
police notified the Street depart-
ment and red lanterns were placed
at the break in the railing pending
the making of repairs.
it was just about the time the
car had plunged off the bridge and
Mayo and Muller were fighting for
their lives that the Board of Esti-
mate and Taxation was discussing
the advisability of appropriating
‘ enough money to lessen the dangers
at the New Canaan avenue bridge.
The matter came up in the consido
eration of the highway budget of
the Fifth Taxing district. V
There was no approprhiiou for
improving existing conditions at the
bridge. Michael J. Riordan. one of
the members of the board. pointed
out this fact and urged the board
to include such an appropriation in
the budget.

Imprint-merits.
The suggestion met with approval
from other board members. It was
suggested that another steel girder
be laid the stream on the right as
well as the left side of the bridge
so that it could be widened about
ten feet or more. This would make
the bridge practically a. straight-
away instead of having the two
sharp turns in it at present. Mr.
Riordan also urged that strong
railings be placed on both sides of
the bridge. It was brought out that
the entire project would not cost
more than 33.000. This amount in~
eludes the cost of the girders which

 

 

 

will amount to about 81.200. No
definite action was taken but the
subject was dropped for the time

an appropriation for widening the
bridge will be included in the bud.
got at a future meeting.

The accident was witnessed by
three men who Were near the bridge
and Who went to Mayo's and Moller's
assistance. These men were: Andrew
Brutomosseo. 28 York street. Ed-
ward Kudler. of 7 York street and
Michael Swidcrakl. of :2 Plattsville
avenue. '. .
