said that an inspector was needed

declaring he thought tha here was
a. big need of an inspector. He said
Changes Made in‘
Two Party Theme
The selective ringlnc system is
now in operation on local teleo
phone'linea. It was inaugurated
\Vednesday by the West Wash-
ington street exchange of the
Southern New England Tole-
phone company. Instead of us~
ing the numerals 2 and 3 the
letter W and J will be used. on
all two party lines in the city.
This means that the bell will
ring only when the subscriber is
called. .
Carlton Gould. manager of the
local office. said this morning
that the new system will accent-
late the changing of over 200
telephone numbers. The new
telephone books. he said, will
be out early next month and the
corrected numbers will be list-
cd.
that the inspector would look after
restaurants. stuns. etc. Mayor
Thomas Robins came out strong in
favor of an inspector. He declared
that he had visited one candy store
in North Main street which had
been closed-up and found the kitch-
en and back of the store in bad sani-
tary condition.
I“It was a disgrace to the City of
Nor-walk." declared Mayor Robins.
"A short time ago_ I. ~myseif. saw
three sides of beef. refused by Stam-
ford inspectors. sold here."
Held Over.
It was brought to the attention of
board members that cattle would not
be slaughtered without permission
from the health ofi'icer.
The matter was finally left open
for the time being and City Clerk
Robert E. Per-due. health officer. to
appear before the board Monday
night.
Several changes were made in the
administrative department budget.
An item of 81.000 for buiiding in-
spector's expanse was cut to 8500.
An item of $10,000 for damage
claims against the city was cut from
the budget. An item of $396.24 and
another for $700 for school enum-
eration were added.
At the suggestion of Corporation
Counsel John Cuneo an allowance
was made to meet the compensation
claim of Charles Pratt against the
city. Pratt. the “'ashington street
bridge tender. was injured on duty
and was allowed a total of 82.283. N
compensation. The board added
$683.76 to take care of this item
for next year.
Claims Against City.
In the matter of claims against the
city, Corporation Council Cuneo ex-
plained that there were several
pending. He mentioned that in
which a. limb of a tree in Chapel
street landed on the top of an auto-
mobile injuring the driver. He also
told of two cases where ankles had
been broken or sprained on account
of snow and ice.
The next matter considered was the
fire department budget. “'iilinm H.
McMahon moved that cnOugh money
he allowed for salaries of the paid
firemen with the exception of the
First district deputy fire chief so a
ten per cent. increase would be
available for the firemen if the
Common Council saw fit to use it.
Included in the motion was an al-
lowance for a 3400 increase for the
deputy fire chief of the First dis-
trict. Mark M. Henderson suggested
that an amendment approving the
idea of a permanent pension fund
be attached to the motion. The mo-
tion. however. went through in its
original form. As the result of the
motion. the budget was changed so
that the item of salaries of the chief
and three deputies amounted to $3. -
411.07; that of 16 drivers at 828.-
908; a mechanic at $1,901.18: a
tire inspector at $1,433.51 and a. fire
alarm inspector at 51.80635.
. The Firemen.
The board next took up the mat-
ter'of the 12 new firemen. Mr. Me-
Mahon moved that six men be al-
lowed. Mr. Henderson wanted to
know what those six men would do.
Mayor Robins explained that $26.-
500 worth of apparatus was at the
present time being handled by one
man. He declared that it was
necessary to find two men to handle
the pumpcrs. Mr. McMahon then
suggested that all of the additional
firemen be cut from the budget.
declaring that Norwalk had a good
volunteer department. but was
jumping too fast in the'dircctlon of
a paid department. .He said that the
fire department would cost the city
nearly 8100.000 a year. The original
motion was finally adopted. The sal-
aries of the six new firemen amount-
ed to 88.603.46. The board then al-
lowed 5125 for new beds and 84.200
for uniforms, caps and shirts.
The matter of insurance. an item
of $1.500 next came under discussion.
The board aloiwed $1.200 for com-
pcnsation insurance cutting the orig-
inal item 8300.
The police department budget was
then taken up. Allowance was made
for the ten per cent. increase which
brought the total payroll without the
additional new men. up to 861.-
788.50. The board unanimously
agreed to slash from the budget an
item of 82.628 for a detective ser-
geant when Mr. McMahon declared
the office had originally been created
during a. controversy between the
First and Second districts. When it
came to the item‘ calling for five
new policemen there was consider-
able discussion. Mayor Robins de-
clared that he thought. in view of
the increased traffic. extra' police-
men were needed. Mr. McMahon
moved that four additional police-
men be allowed at a. cost of $8.080.
An item of 83.085 for-extra omcers
during the \acation and 8800 for
extra omcers during sickness were
allowed.
Taxi for relics.
When it came to an item of 31. 000
for an automobile. the board. halted
again and slashed it. from the bud-
get. Mayor Robins. however. ex-
plained that Norwalk was the onli'
city in the State without a“ patrol
wagon. He described a recent con-
dition in which live drunks were
rounded up. saying that the uniforms
of the policemen were ruined be-
cause they did not have any patrol
wagon to bring the man to the locks
up. Other board members than”.
that a. patrol wagon would be a
good thing, but said it would mean a
cbauaenr and“ the amuse of up
keep. Corporation Counsel om
voted to increase the contingency
fund of the police department from
$500 to 81.000 to meet any emergency
which might arise from the lack of
a patrol wagon. An item of $630 for
gas accumulators (traffic standards),
was slashed in half. Allowance of
$480 was made for the clothing of
the four new policemen and 8100
for four guns.
Charity Budget.
The board then turned to the
Charity department budget. City
Clerk Robinson read a communica-
tion from the latter department
asking for a special appropriation of
$2.000 for Naramake Home: 81,600
for outside poor and 8200 for the
Smith Street Tramp ”House. The
matter was left until a later date.
In the Charity department budget
for the coming year. the only item
which was slashed from the budget
was that of $2.000 for the salary of
a superintendent of charities. All
other items were allowed. The bud-
get of the Town Clerk was allowed
as requested.
Here is how the budgets consid-
cred by the board were slashed last
night: Fire dcpartment budget.
from $88,245.73 to 374.119.37; Po-
lice department budget. from 1-79.404
to $63 50:. 50: Charity department
budget from $42 300 to $40 300; Ad-
ministrative budget from 5152.838 50
to $148. 51? 50 and Printing depart-
ment from $3.700 to $-.h00.
The board will meet again. Mon-
day night. From 7:30 o‘clock until
8 o‘clock the Zoning Commission
will be given an opportunity to come
before the board. At 8 o‘clock Dr.
Robert E. Perdue. health officer. will

and milk inspector. After that the
board will reoconsidcr the budgets
and make. up the tax rates.

Judge Lawsuits Says
At Westport ’
WESTPORT. June 20.—-Judge
Joseph Albert Lawson of New York
City in his address during the Cen-
tennial celebration here yesterday
of Temple Lodge. No. 65, F. and A.
declared that it will take more
than the Eighteenth Amendment
and the enfranchisement of women
to put this country, in the place that
the Boys of '61 fought to put it and
to maintain for alLtimo.
Taking as his subject General
Grant‘s epithet “Let Us Have Pesos."
Judge Dawson pointed out that dur-
ing the one hundred years that have
elapsed since the birth of Temple
Lodge. America had been through
two baptisms of fire. the Civil “'ar
and the World War. Two great po-
litical upheavals have also taken
place he said. the enfranchisement
of women and the Eighteenth
Amendment.
He urged that more American
citizens and fewer voters be made
and that the spirit of unity be con-
stzitgtly nourished. Continuing he
as :
, “Everyone of us here should have
for his watchword ‘Let us have
peace.‘ “’e should strive to main-
tain peace in this world that is
scrambling and pushing to down the
obligations of brotherly love. Let
us join in one mighty army to see
that we have peace. but let us do it
with dignity. let us do it with an
adequate army and navy, so. that
we can back up our words sufficient-
ly to mean as Grant meant when he
said. ‘Let us have peace.’ ”
The Centennial exercises consisted
of an afternoon and evening ses-
sion in the Y. M. C..A. auditorium.
Many visitors were present from all
parts of the state and were wel-
comed by Worshipful Master Ken-
neth Beers. who was chairman. Rev.
M. Marks. deputy grand chaplain cf
the Norwaik lodge delivered a his-
torical address on the lodge.
During the afternoon exercises
the Criterion Quartette of Bridge-
port'rendered 1 number of selec-
tions and were enthusiastically en-
cored. Andrew “’heeler, a former
resident here. and now living in
Sharon. this state. presented a gavel
and trowel and leather case to hold
them. to his lodge. All of the ar-
ticles were made by members of the
“'hcelcr family.
The gavel was made by M. 3.
Wheeler in 1878 of wood taken from
the flagship of Commodore Perry
which was sunk in Lake Erie by the
British on September 19, 1513, and
raised in 1576.
During the intermission between
the afternoon and evening exercises
a buffet lunch was served in the "Y“
gymnasium under the direction of
Oscar Schultze of Norwalk. The
evening session was devoted largely
to vaudeville entertainment.
