THE DISCUSSION

iBelief Is Another Place
Will Be Rented in
District to House Po-
Iicemen

Official notice has been served on
the City of Norwalk to vacate the
First District police headquarters.

The notice was received this
morning by City Clerk Stephen Do-
kus from Arthur Terris the owner of
the property.

The notice states that Mr. Terris
would like to have possession or the
building by February 1. 1926.

The letter will probably be pre-
sented to the Common Council at
its January meeting. and some ac—
tion taken toward securing another
police station in that district or con-
solidating the entire police force and
putting it all under one roof in the
City Hall. Second District. .

It is thought at the present time

a that another police station will be
rented in the First District. as busi-
ness men feel that there is green
need for a station there.
