from Danbury to South Norwalk at
a hearing at the Capitol. The pro-
posed construction wili complete the

ing. The engineer explained that the

The Evening Sentinel asks several
citizens today the question. why is
revision or the city charter neces-
nary? - ‘
* Here are some of the answers:-
Councilman Albert. M. Pohhnan.
"I tool that there are several
changes that we should make in our‘
present city Charter. The charter.
should be revisecd so that our Com.
men/Council would not all go out
of oflice at the same time. thus giv-
ing the City an entire new Council.
theemembers of which could have
a commission term of government.
whereby a certain number of new
councilman would be elected at each
election and a certain number hold
over until the next election.
"I don't feel that the Board of
Education should have full control
over budget. as our recent charter
states. The Board of Estimates and
Taxattion should hays something to
say on this matter. As it stands at
the present ilms the Board of Edu-
cation cau put in a budget calling
for any amount that 'it wishes' and
no other bodv has anything to say
about the matter.
“The Police Commissioner should
have more power. At the present
tints he has nothing to say about
thermisiug or the cop: out. fié"
should hays control over h s depart-
ment.
“There are many changes
could be.made that would benefit
the city. but 1 don't see how we can
expect to make any changes at the
