HEARTILY IN FAVOR OF
 CITY BEAUTIFUL PLAN Mayor Receives Letter from Louis c. Heller of Ro-
 gouski Company.
INVITED TO MEETING
Invitations Have Been Is- sued to Hundreds for
 Session Tonight.

Invitations were sent out yesterday by Mayor Studley to many hundreds of New Haven citizens inviting them to be present at the meeting to be held this evening in the rooms of the New Haven Colony historical society to consider tha plans of the city beautiful idea. The in- | vitation read:
 In view of the general interest of the plan proposed by MT. Seymour for the future improvement of the city of New Haven. and of the desire which has been frequently expressed that meet Ing should be called to consider the subject, you are invited to attend a meeting to be held in the hall of the New Haven Colony Historical society, IA Grove street. at o'clock. on the evening of Wednesday. June 19, to con- fer with members of the city goverp- ment and other citizens with reference to the advisability of employing ex- perts to prepare a plan for the future | developmnt of the city.
 JOHN F. STUDLEY, Mayor.
 The following letter highly comments ing the plan and promising heartyco-op- eration for 1t was receivedSby the May or yesterday in response to his sinvita- tion from Louis c Heller. one of tho members of the firm of Rogowski4a Go. of Chapel street:
 My dear Sir:
 The citizens meeting. which you have the goodness to call for the purpose of elucidating ideas and suggestions in ea- vor of the city beautiful,T should have the encouragement of every individual resident of the glorious Elm City 1t is my belief that it is high time for us to get together and make for ours selves and our descendants monument that not alone is a pride for those of us and those that shall follow us. but for the good name and prosperity of the lefty, which, to say the least, has been slumbering for many years
 You no doubt have mapped out diff tferent plans by which the financial cul- imitation of this project can be made possible, perhaps without necessitating a levy of increased taxation to your taxpayers, but should this be impractic- able, or, may say, impossible, for one would be cheerfulIy willing to pay an increase in the rate of at least two per cent.
 We are now in the height of pros- porous times. the very time when we should put our shoulders to the wheel. and leave no stone unturned to bring about Q decided change, both in tho beautifying of our oity. and in the spirit of progressiveness which in tho lpast has been dormant
 We claim the largest population of the state. Our sister cities are using every means to reach this claim It be- hooves us to keep in mind that which is only too apparent. If we continue in f our indifference to things and measures we have only ourselves to blame. and when the time comes-"I told you so'' We will surely regret the opportunity we had and which we ignored,
 If my humble self can be of any sers vice to you and your committee com mand, me. I remain.
 Yours very truly,
 LOUIS c. HErLER
